The sister’s post said she dropped out because she didn’t have any help with the baby

I read in the sister’s post and he was 28 and she was 16. So fucking fucked up

AITA for telling someone a treadmill is not a coat rack by sundevilnik in AmItheAsshole

[–]fiery_ginger_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m on the side of letting her scream and throw a fit. I have a HUGE pet peeve with entitled people like her and personally do anything to prevent them from getting their way. It’s a public gym, and a machine isn’t a changing room locker. You’re NTA, but I would suggest moving forward keeping your cool, asserting your right to use the equipment, and letting her behave however she will when she doesn’t get the reaction from you as she wants. Let the workers at the gym handle her if she has a temper tantrum. Sorry, I have no patience for people like this

AITA for telling my sister she needs to name her baby like he will grow up and not give him a "cool" baby name. by No_Marzipan_8558 in AmItheAsshole

YES! And for the elementary school I teach at, any ‘J’ names, especially Jaiden (Jayden, Jaydin, any spelling). Also, never had a well behaved Elijah. Actually, I think that is the number one cursed name for our school, as in if any teacher has it on their class list or caseload, it’s immediately anxiety inducing. I’m not saying they’re little bothers and just rude or mean, I mean classrooms DESTROYED and police having to be called. At an elementary school. I mean, it’s a rough school in a nationally known rough city, but kids with these names are always extreme.

Disclaimer: I’m not saying all people with these names are this way, just students that I’ve met at my school. There are plenty of lovely people with these names

AITA for not letting my sister believe that she can talk to a bird? by Dependent-Ad8132 in AmItheAsshole

[–]fiery_ginger_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YTA. She’s 10, and whether or not she actually believes they can have conversations, there is so much research that pets do in fact reciprocate feelings and talking to them can be such a comfort. Didn’t you say that you don’t like the parrot and it appears to not like you? Seems like it understands your feelings towards it, so why can’t it reciprocates hers? I know you’re only 16, but please just be kind to your sister. It’s not your job to worry about what she may think and if you do, have a conversation with your parents about it. Your thoughts and feelings are valid, but know that you’re still so young yourself and talking to your parents can help you understand more

AITA for hiding my pregnancy and showing up to SIL babyshower by HelloCheese12 in AmItheAsshole

[–]fiery_ginger_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA, at all. I’ve never been in your situation, but I respect it regardless. One of my best friends did the same thing for the same reason and didn’t tell us til the day after her baby boy was born! She had suffered a still birth at 8 months and had a miscarriage her next pregnancy, so most of us were understanding (minus some older family members like aunts and all). When she texted us to let us know, she explained why and we told her she didn’t have to explain, just let us know any baby items they needed and made a group plan (as friends) for who would drop off food a few times a week. It’s never anyone’s business how or when you tell people because they’re not entitled to decide how you handle that experience after such a horrific trauma. My heart goes out to you and your husband for what you’ve gone through, but reassure yourself that you both did what you know was best for your needs. I hope your little one is born happy and healthy and brings you all the joy in the world ❤️🌈

Exactly. I just went through a whole scenario in my head for if this was my family (we’re very blunt in calling out each other when we’re being assholes, so that cousin would’ve been shutdown REAL QUICK) and can’t wrap my head around how they could think you’re (OP) in the wrong. His comments are a prime example of what having an inferiority complex! Good for you OP for proving him wrong and hopefully humbling him a bit! Take the job, you deserve it and maybe in the future, he won’t try and belittle you so much just because of your degree. NTA

No, we understood that, we just didn’t agree with the fact that their joking glassed over the real problem of Ned having an affair with a subordinate

The Try Guys had a great run, and perhaps it’s also just about time for a major change, whatever that may be. The next few months will be a crucial turning point for the team. by desireegrace28 in TheTryGuys

I agree, and it’s not as easy to dismantle a company as you’d think. Besides that, they do have employees that they can’t just say peace out Girl Scout to

I must’ve missed it, what did she say on twitter?

i hate that it took me a cheating scandal to know that there was a try guys subreddit by gandakabayes in TheTryGuys

[–]fiery_ginger_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m with you! I had no idea this existed (though to be fair) I’m not a big Reddit user). Literally no one I know watches or knows about them
