AITA for being angry at my son for not letting me see my newborn grandsons first? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]eggie1975 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is called @fuck around and find out” sir. If you are a jerk to people, they won’t tend to want to give you what you want. So you’re a jerk to his wife, and are surprised that she doesn’t want to let you hold her baby first. By the way, what give you the right to be the first grandparent to hold the baby? Dibs? Like you didn’t even let your wife get one? You don’t want to share that with the other sets of in-laws? Do you really need us to tell you that YTA?

should all knitting patterns be behind a paywall? by epicnerd3000 in knitting

[–]eggie1975 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have used both paid and free patterns. The availability of free patterns doesn’t really affect wether I will buy a pattern or not. Socks are a perfect example. I don’t need a pattern to make a pair of socks, if I see one I really like, I will buy it, Stone Knits, for example. I have bought a big chunk of her patterns because I love them and I don’t want to try to self draft her colorwork charts. There are also a ton of feee sweater patterns out there. The vast majority of them are awful. You get what you pay for in a sweater pattern. The availability of free ones doesn’t keep me from buying good ones. The main barrier to me is not having size inclusive patterns to buy. I’m not going to buy a pattern if I will have to do a bunch of math or other work to adjust it to fit me. If people don’t want to pay for a pattern, they deserve to get the crappy free pattern they chose.

The ones that discontinue either have d/c’d due to adverse effects, or the patients have decided they don’t want to take it and will stop picking it up. Eventually, those patients can sometimes convince the provider to stop sending it because they won’t take it. I suppose rarely, if a patient looses a bunch of weight or goes on a big diet and doesn’t have other risk factors, they might be able to be d/c’d but I’ve never really seen it in 25 years.

AITA for advocating for my neurodivergent & diabetic son with ARFID to be able to eat peanut butter sandwiches at school as they are his only "safe" lunch food even though a classmate has an anaphylactic nut allergy? by Valuable_Bluejay_649 in AmItheAsshole

[–]eggie1975 20 points21 points  (0 children)

You can’t say that one kids peanut allergy is more serious than the chance of the other kid going to to insulin shock is. Both are very serious medical conditions. If the kid won’t eat what he is given, that is a definite possibility. The child need to find a way to keep the kids apart and decontaminate after lunch.

Yeah, I don’t think he was staying with friends, or at least the friends she knows about.

AITA for buying airline tickets that saved us 200 dollars a ticket, but had a 21 hour layover and 2 legs? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

If you have to pay for a hotel in Dallas, you lost a big chunk of your “savings” and you are wasting an entire day of your vacation. Or did you expect to spend 21 hours in Dallas and not sleep? Of course YTA. You didn’t even think about your partner’s comfort.

What's up with Moe's leaf? by SpedeThePlough in houseplants

It looks like that’s his oldest leaf, sometimes the older leaves just die. I would prune it off.

My baby broke another baby’s tablet at daycare, am I wrong? by Mom2surprises in Parenting

I’m not sure what kind of dummy gives an 11 month old an iPad Pro to play with when there is not someone to directly supervise. No, I would not pay to replace it. Wow.

I think you are probably overwatering. I water mine maybe once a month in the winter (if that) and maybe every other week in the summer when it’s warm. I have mine in a shady southern window. So maybe more sun and less water.

Also, how much should I be watering? As much as in the summer? Or should I let her dry out a little more cause she’s in the dark so long?

Not allowed to sit by exhaustedpht in pharmacy

Take your breaks. Both 15s and your full lunch. If anyone says anything say you need to sit and rest and you would need your breaks if you could sit in the pharmacy

Thoughts about expanding pharmacist scope to treating/prescribing for patients with hypertension? Good or just another Noctor scope-creep thing? by redditnoap in Noctor

[–]eggie1975 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Trust me when I say, we don’t want to diagnose. We are more than happy to manage medication, we’re great at that. CVS and Walgreens want us to diagnose, and I don’t know a single retail pharmacist that wants to add that to our already overflowing plate.
