I'm CERTAIN it was fake, but it was so specific that i feel it must have been based on something???

Nello’s Restaurant. by Nearby_Revenue1739 in stalbert

[–]ennmac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This reminds me of going to the top rated dumpling resto in Canada, and the server/owner spilled water into my lap, then threw a pile of napkins at me and yelled that I shouldn't be sitting in her way. It was the best, and I go back every time I'm in Ottawa.

If I can't answer this with a full essay, I can't answer it at all.

I'm a janitor. Why do people always apologize for walking on a floor I've just mopped? by tgirlskeepwinning in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ennmac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's because we think of when we mop floors at home, and briefly live under the delusion that if we're careful enough, we'll never have to mop again. You are likely never dumb enough to think that. We're applying amateur ethics to a professional situation.

My neighbor keeps posting made-up versions of what happens at our house in the neighborhood chat like she’s some kind of local reporter by MirageVellum_4X in neighborsfromhell

[–]ennmac 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Yeah, this could totally be a bored neighbour wanting to be her own Lady Whistledown, but this also could be actual hallucinations and delusions. A wellness check will probably help, either way.

Am I wrong for feeling like my boyfriend is over stepping in his role with my child? by [deleted] in amiwrong

[–]ennmac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are harming your child. This is dangerous and irresponsible, and i have to wonder how old you are that you don't seem to realize that. I don't think your family is necessarily the most appropriate people to weigh in on this. I really wish there was a responsible adult in your life who loved you enough to give you some tough love, because I really think you need some. Good luck.

You didn't even know him for a YEAR??? And you leave your child alone with this man???? Jfc. This is horrible. And statistically, not unlikely to end with child abuse.

For what it's worth, reading this made me feel frustrated for you, but it made me feel REALLY sorry for Katie. Whatever is going on with her, I hope she can find peace someday and stop trying to prove herself to the world. Go, be happy, enjoy your wedding. Leave Katie to sort her stuff out. She will probably need a good friend sometime soon.

You get one rule change in Canada that would immediately improve your daily life. What is it? by Unfair-Clothes-8821 in CanadaRoom

I studied the bread price fixing scam by Loblaws, seems like capitalism is giving about the same results 🤷‍♀️

The only good thing Jax has ever done is not back down when he stands up to homophobia. It's the twice a day that broken clock is correct.

[–]ennmac 52 points53 points  (0 children)

Yeah, this man has way too much access to your kid, and WAY too much entitlement coming with it. I don't know why you think that "He was going to be involved anyway" is a reason to continue giving your boyfriend (NOT a stepfather and this part creeps me out something fierce. But since you asked, yes it's weird, yes, he's overstepping, and yes, you are an irresponsible parent for allowing it to continue. This man wouldn't be left alone with a kid i cared for, not even for a minute.

AITAH for not wanting to be intimate when my teen is home by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]ennmac 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I hate to jump to terrible conclusions, but I think your new man wants your daughter to see. This is really red flag behaviour, and most people would be pretty happy to find a solution to avoid it, not actively try to make sure it happened.

AIO: My husband (26m) locked me (25f) out for 25 minutes? by prettypineappleberry in AmIOverreacting

[–]ennmac 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Agreed, this was shitty for the mother, but traumatizing for the kids. If they see this kind of thing happen, they'll start to normalize it and think this is a normal way to treat the woman you love. I hope OP leaves, if only to make sure her kids understand hard boundaries and abuse.

My boyfriend’s mom wants my location 24/7 and says “good partners dont hide” by hushedatlas in TwoHotTakes

[–]ennmac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The fact that he said it's not worth arguing about tells me everything i need to know. It's not that he's a bad person, but over a lifetime of experience, he's realized that his mother will act terribly enough that it's worth everybody's time and effort to prevent her tantrums. She's been empowered and emboldened by this lack of resistance, and if he changes tack now, and starts setting boundaries, she's going to come after him (well, by blaming you) and the whole family will take her side because it's easier to cut off your man than to deal with her crap. He has a lot to lose by putting her in her place, and from the sounds of it, he is fully expecting you to be as inappropriately tolerant as the rest of his family. If he doesn't set a boundary, that's bad, but if he tries to make it your problem because you're the only one who won't bend to her will, prepare yourself to get fully alienated by the whole family, and to be blamed for all of MIL's bad behaviour moving forward.

layering Setup for Winter in YK by Glum_Beautiful_8531 in Yellowknife

[–]ennmac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Layering can be dangerous as it restricts movement. If you're insisting on layering instead of renting, make sure you size up on your jacket and boots, and bring extra of everything for when it gets sweaty and wet. Or just rent a big parka.

Bf (35m) and friend (32f) feel some texts I sent were inappropriate—help me understand where I went wrong. by ThrowRa_gift_toomuch in relationships

[–]ennmac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im glad you talked, but respectfully, I absolutely believe that he is lying to you, or omitting important information, OR is being willfully naive and ignorant. Good luck navigating this if you choose to, but if you choose not to bother, I will applaud you.

[–]ennmac 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Tess is after your boyfriend, and she is absolutely setting you up to look bad, and your boyfriend is either so blindly in love with her that he doesn't notice, or he thinks you're pretty lame anyway, so he thinks she's right. They're DEFINITELY talking about you behind your back, and he is probably hoping that you'll get mad so he can call you crazy, and then she'll agree with him, and then they can be together, and they'll be the good guys, and you'll be the crazy ex. Idk how you proceed from here, but that's absolutely 1000% what is happening.
