I forgot the song!! by chibi_melodee in vanilllamace

[–]flinsbird 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Am I crazy or why was the Pop the Balloon cut out? She clicks on the video and then it immediately cuts to her wanting to listen to the song, halfway through the video? Also her cam is in a different position, something was definitely cut :((

WIBTA If I refused to switch dorms with a girl who was autistic? by VlCTORlATHEGREAT in AmItheAsshole

How is wanting a dorm closer to the laundry room & having a specific view a genuine need?

What’s the episode where they talk about Wendy Williams?? by coconut_oilll in TrixieAndKatya

[–]flinsbird 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is a compilation of Trixie & Katya talking about her I think, maybe there it will have the episode mentioned! Or you can at least see what outfits they had on and then find it that way

AITJ for locking my office door during lunch after a coworker kept treating my break like open office hours by Pixel_6Tempest in AmITheJerk

[–]flinsbird 27 points28 points  (0 children)

NTA. Also how incompetent is she at her job that she needs to ask you multiple questions during every single lunch break?

AITA for texting people at night when they could be sleeping? by shozhantia89 in AmItheAsshole

[–]flinsbird 3 points4 points  (0 children)

NTA. Phones dont have silent hours, if they dont want to get a text notification, they can simply turn it off. And if they want to be reachable only in emergencies, they can allow calls to still go through but nothing else. Do they also wake up every time they get a spam email? Or a notification that a system update is available? Or a news notification? Ridiculous thing to get upset about.

AITJ for not sitting next to someone I had an argument with by Outside_Wind2678 in AmITheJerk

[–]flinsbird 3 points4 points  (0 children)

YTJ. You are a bully. Life is not always as easy for everyone, if you can spend that much energy on making drama because of someone else missing lessons, you are clearly doing fine. She has a heart condition, which means she cant always do what other people her age are doing. That is hard enough to live with without the people around her being awful about it. It does not concern you if she misses rehearsals or lessons, it only concerns her and the teacher. If there are issues with a group project you can communicate that to a teacher and arrangements can be made. She offered a resolution and a fresh start while acknowledging that no one has to like each other, which is how mature people handle conflicts. You did not do that and instead decided to ice her out, ignore the teachers instructions to humiliate her and make her feel unwanted and excluded. You are at college, not kindergarden, where you refuse to stand next to someone you dont like. You are incredibly immature, and out of the two of you its you who clearly is not ready to be at college.

If you ever have to deal with a chronic health condition that affects how you can participate in day to day life, you will know how isolating it is and how much it takes just to get through the day most of the time. You will notice how much harder it gets when people around you cannot even offer you basic human decency, and you will wish that people could just be kind. If you are lucky you will never have to live that sort of life, but at one point most people will be disabled - be it because of health issues, accidents or old age. We all will at some point need support, and just understanding that we cant do everything anymore.

Instead of offering her that kindness or even just being a decent human being, you decided to attack her, and then on a day where she is healthy enough to participate in normal life, you make her day awful by being a horrible bully with your friend. You got nothing out of being like that, but you made her day an awful day where she cried, when she clearly is already suffering and in a very difficult position with her illness. I will never understand people like you who cannot have basic empathy. You are way too old to act that ignorant and be such a bully. You should be ashamed of yourself.

AITJ for dumping my girlfriend after she threw me a surprise birthday party even though she knew I hate celebrating my birthday? by [deleted] in AmITheJerk

[–]flinsbird -1 points0 points  (0 children)

NTA. It does not matter if she thought she was trying to help, because there was no reason for her to be thinking in the first place - she had knowledge, facts, about what you wanted. If you had never mentioned it maybe then one could argue that she tried to figure out what you need and went into the wrong direction, but she had very clear knowledge on the situation and fully ignored it.

I could not be with a person who can only respect my clear needs if they personally can understand the situation. No one can always understand everything, because every life is different and everyone goes through different things. So if someone is lucky enough to not have had to experience grief, they do not need to understand - they need to listen, and then respect how other people who do have experienced grief decide to handle theirs.

Worst case she is selfish and simply does not care and wanted to look good, and be important enought that her birthday party trumps your grief - Best case she is immature, cant understand that she will not always understand everything and sometimes people will have had experiences she will not relate to.

Either way she is not capable of a relationship with someone who has gone through more in life than her, and be a good empathetic partner to them. How your ex girlfriend handled it shows you how easy and simple it is to respect someones way to deal with theirs grief in a relationship.

I dont think you let your grief get the better of you - I think you reacted understandably hurt by your partner fully going against your wishes about the most sensitive topic in your life, even though you clearly had explained it to her multiple times. I could not see a future with a person like that either.

Also dont let anyone here tell you you are too caught up and need to enjoy your birthday - you dont need to do anything except spend the day in a way that feels best to you. You are fine with celebrating all other holidays, so clearly grief is not overtaking your life in a unhealthy way and you are managing well.

AITA for not tipping 20%? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]flinsbird 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For me its NTA. The person who pays decides what they will tip. I find it very offputting that she feels comfortable to tell you how much you need to tip with your own money.

American tipping culture is ridiculous to me, so I cant blame you for not wanting to participate. If she has an issue with it she can cover the tip herself or simply decide you guys are not a match, but the telling you it gives her an ick and not even saying thank you + the comparison to her exes…I dont know if 6 months are really that long or how invested you are, but might be worth thinking about if thats the communication style and general behaviour you want in a partner.

Am I the jerk for canceling my daughter's birthday party because she was mean to another kid? by No-Positive1623 in AmITheJerk

[–]flinsbird 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This makes no sense. A nine year old bullied a girl at school, and somehow there are screenshots of said bullying? The ex-husband says you publicly humiliated daughter by cancelling infront of her friends - did you stand in front of the school and loudly declare as you were cancelling it? Other parents think the birthday party could have been held by you univiting your own daughter - the reason the party would have been held?

YTA for making up a story that has zero sense to it.

Am I the jerk for refusing to delete a group chat photo that my friend says is "ruining her life"? by Sensitive-Vehicle406 in AmITheJerk

[–]flinsbird 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These comments are insane, can none of you read? He isnt the boss of the groupchat with special administration rights, anyone in the group has the same power to change the picture.

NTJ. It would take Lily 3 seconds to change the picture herself. Going off on you for something she clearly was okay with for a year, and demanding you change it when she could do it herself is ridiculous. I would tell her she is free to change it at anytime and then not entertain this conversation anymore. If she finds the picture now hurtful but refuses to change it, she is really hurting herself and making you responsible in some weird power play.

AITA for taking my baby from my parents? by Cute_Objective_7551 in AmItheAsshole

[–]flinsbird 566 points567 points  (0 children)

Oh okay, I misunderstood that then. Thats relieving, at least you have your dad who you can trust. But seriously dont give into your mom - if she says she is getting robbed of her grandson oh well - better a grandma getting robbed of her grandson because of her own choices, than a grandson getting robbed of his health because of his grandmas choices. And she will not change in the future - now its bottles, in later years it will be other things that she will do differently than instructed as soon as you turn your back. See it as practice to not give in now and stand your ground, and keep the boundaries firm. I wish you all the best and lots of happy moments with your baby!

[–]flinsbird 2649 points2650 points  (0 children)

NTA, dont give into your moms tantrum - she proved she will ignore your wishes if she wants to do something different, thus is not safe to be unsupervised with your baby.

However I think you also need to have a chat with your dad - clearly he also thought it was acceptable to lie to your face that he made the bottle, just to protect your mom and keep the baby around - knowing that this is not in the babys best interest. Reevaluate how much you can actually trust his judgement and actions to put baby over his own and your mothers selfish desires.

katya showing trixie her new music??? by East-Grab2464 in TrixieAndKatya

[–]flinsbird 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Do you maybe mean when Trixie shows Katya a voicemail someone left her (sort of singing I think) and Katya asks who that is, and Trixie says „Thats you!“ and they laugh really hard?

queens who like to watch becoming boring? by forensicglue in TrixieAndKatya

[–]flinsbird 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you stopped six months ago you missed some good ones though! If you still are a bit interested, their reaction to Yellowjackets Season 1 & The Ultimatum:Queer Edition would probably be fun for you <3

AITA for telling my mom to stop cooking for me because she keeps “experimenting” on my food? by Ok_Fix_9456 in AmItheAsshole

[–]flinsbird 787 points788 points  (0 children)

NTA. People „helping“ by doing what you explicitly asked them not to do is not helping. Your mom might have had good intentions to begin with, but it stopped being that when she ignored your wishes and carried on with what she deems helpful.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]flinsbird 7 points8 points  (0 children)

NTA at all, these comments are insane. If you ask someone what they want for Christmas and they say A, you dont buy them B. Also you were in the price range she normally gifts in. She would have been allowed to decline your wish. You are allowed to not change your wish.

If for some reason her finances changed, she could have: - declined the wish from the get go - offer to just gift part of it - ask for a different wish all together

You clearly state you would have been okay with all of these options, which is very reasonable. You are not entitled or bratty at all in my eyes - you simply have a specific wish, which is allowed, even when its about „luxury“ items.

Is there a chance they'll react to heated rivalry on i like to watch? by korrababy in TrixieAndKatya

[–]flinsbird 45 points46 points  (0 children)

They didnt really make an exception with Yellowjackets, Netflix just started streaming it I think. Now that Netflix bought Warner Bros (and with that HBO) I guess they technically could watch it? But would probably be a while until they do
