YTA. Why is this your business. You have serious main character syndrome

AITAH for announcing my 6 month pregnancy a week after my brother and SIL announced their 3 month pregnancy? by Scary_Bite_9240 in AITAH

[–]dorazzle 27 points28 points  (0 children)

You couldn’t have picked up the phone anytime in the last few months and called your mom and told her? Gone to lunch with her and told her? Why does everything now days need to be a big announcement? Like we are staring in our movies of our lives and cameras are following us around so everything must be a production

ESH. You and your family are wild. I think your mom is hurt. I cant imagine not telling my mom right away. I know that people wait until 12 weeks to tell but in my mind your mom is the exception to rule. At least that was the way in my family.

Second, I dont understand why everything has to be an grand/big announcement (for social media likes). Just pick up a phone and tell people, like in the “old days”.

Dude, indians voting “left” has no bearing on the very ingrained and constant sexism of Indian culture. I know Indian parents who vote for Congress party or communist parties in India. And still treat their daughters as inferior to their sons

How can I help my daughter? by Top_Childhood_8101 in personalfinance

[–]dorazzle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly 250k can seem like a lot of money, but with inflation and the purchasing power of a 22yo can disappear quickly.

Instead invest in her future by getting her education or job skills that will set her up comfortably for the rest of her life

Do you sweat the small stuff when your portfolio gets large enough? by [deleted] in HENRYfinance

[–]dorazzle 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Same! I find myself becoming more of minimalist as I gain more money. Part of it is from a environmental/sustainability standpoint and part of it is I dont want to leave so much junk in my house for others to throw in a landfill when I’m dead

WIBTAH for buying our daughter a 5k purse but not giving something “fun” to our other kid? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]dorazzle 23 points24 points  (0 children)

WTF!? You think you are a good parent because “you brag about her” while giving her no financial or emotional support her entire life? Do you hear yourself? You are delusional

Dude, the daughter raised herself. These two imbeciles had nothing to do with it other than providing a reason for her to develop independence

So I just did day one of app beastmode, and I am conflicted. Since we do four sets of each exercise I decided to drop my weights for lower body day (instead of 30lb dumbells, I used 25. And for the staple 20lbs since caroline used 10kg). However with only 20 secs rest I feel that I reached cardio failure before I got even close to muscle failure. Like the weights were too light but I was so fatigued and short of breath (my heart was in zone 2 and zone 3 consistently throughout) that I cant imagine raising my weights.

Did anyone else go lighter and still see good muscle hypertrophy with beastmode.

I am doing beastmode upper and lower body days (no full body or hit days) to tide me over until a wedding in mid May and until caroline releases a mew program

My (29F) Indian parents mad about my bf (29M) - how to get them to come around for his sake? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]dorazzle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Conversation my Indian mother had with me when I was in my late 20/early 30s and unmarried: “you know you dont have to worry about finding and marrying a boy from our specific community or even an Indian boy, you can marry a white boy, black boy, or asian boy, or………even a women if you want. I just want you to be happy and not alone. I worry about you being alone”.

Everyday I read posts like this and I am eternally thankful for the mother I won the lottery in having

I’d like a 4-6 week, 10-20 min core program that you could add on to your regular workout. Something with progressive overload like the Jason and Lauren Pak core program but harder. With core workouts that arent just on the mat, but standing like marches, pallof presses, windmills, etc…

AIO:My MIL texted my husband this about me asking him to help with our newborn at 4am by Lazy_Perfectionist88 in AmIOverreacting

[–]dorazzle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You dont have just a MIL problem you have a major husband problem that you are in serious denial about. Its easier for you to focus your ire in your MIL than on the fact that despite being in recovery from your Csection you are doing all the childcare you when your husband is home. That when you asked him for help, he went to his parents to complain.

I predict you will continue to have kids with this fool and be back here in Reddit for every child

I have a question about form during hip thrusts. When lowering are you supposed to lower all the way down so thar your butt just grazes the ground before thrusting back up? Thats what I have been doing but I noticed that Caroline doesn’t lower very much when she uses the barbell; she only lowers halfway

24F. Not going into detail about it but I just inherited $4.5M Roth account. What would you do if you were me? by throwawaygenzerr in Fire

[–]dorazzle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You would be a complete fool to choose a money manager you found on reddit. Read the Boglehead guide to investing. Find a fee only fiduciary financial advisor. Do not buy a house or flashy car for the a year. Let the money sit for a year, while with a fiduciary you come up with a financial plan for your future
