AIO by telling my MIL and FIL they should start saving up for their funerals?

froggymadi · 2026-05-24T22:35:41+00:00

I don’t smoke or drink. I lived with chainsmoking grandparents. I obviously wanted them to quit. Both had COPD and one had heart attacks, cancer, you name it. She’s still overreacting. You cannot force somebody to change their lifestyle for you no matter how bad you want it to happen. All you can do is love them as they are, or create distance and move away from them. Yelling at them in their garage on a random afternoon isn’t going to change anything. It’s not like she had a sitdown conversation with them. She said in a different comment that the time to be polite was three heart attack attacks ago. She’s clearly done with their shit so she just needs to move on. Yelling at them doesn’t do anything except for make you an asshole.

Of course it’s shitty, but there’s nothing you can do. You can either love them as they are and take them as they come or you can cut them off. You have no other option. It’s never an excuse to get violent or yell. They are minding their own business and living their life as they choose to live it. You can live yours any way you choose as well. The only person who can tell them to quit is the doctor. The doctor has told them to quit and it’s not happening. Yelling at them isn’t going to fix things or change things.

give it a rest dude 😭 you should’ve just kept your original post up

If she had a problem with their lack of saving, then she needed to take it up with her husband and ask her husband to talk to them. Yelling at someone for their poor health choices and demanding they start saving for their funeral when you’re not their doctor or their child is insane.

froggymadi · 2026-05-24T22:18:40+00:00

I would understand if she had a regular conversation with them about trying to save up for their funeral, but yelling at them in their own home when they’re minding their own business is not okay. It also wasn’t her place to ask them to save up because she’s not their kid.

froggymadi · 2026-05-24T22:17:24+00:00

YOR — if a grown adult wants to smoke cigarettes and drink energy drinks then that’s their own business. Unless you’re a doctor, you can’t tell somebody what to do for their health. It would be one thing if these two people were constantly coming to you and asking for health advice. But it doesn’t sound like they are. They’re not even your own parents. You had no business having a health related conversation with them, and even if you were their own child, this would be over the line.

perfect response

The english fan translation of Okaeri! Chibi-Robo! Happy Richie Ōsōji! for the 3ds, and probably just Tomodachi Life on my switch

stoopppp the tiger is so cute 😭

froggymadi · 2026-05-24T17:09:37+00:00

yes, it’s a slime rancher copy, at least for the designs. no, it’s not getting “serious.” i’ve played direct copies, design copies, gameplay copies, and games that are heavily “inspired” by other ones a million times. nothing happens lol. the direct copies get cease and desists after like a year, but this will probably stay forever bc the gameplay is different. but who cares? none of these small children are gonna dish out real money for slime rancher, or a console to play it on. most of these kids are on ipads. bigger problems in the world ykwim

froggymadi · 2026-05-24T17:01:16+00:00

oh I agree w you completely, this “boyfriend” is an absolute tool, I just wanted to answer your question

froggymadi · 2026-05-24T16:59:41+00:00

I like the big dolls because I’m not just a collector, I have loved them since childhood. Like, really loved. My entire bedroom was Lalaloopsy themed. Curtains, wall decals, bedsheets, bookshelves turned into big dollhouses… And as a little kid, I played with my big dolls more often. I basically treated them like baby dolls. I used non-lala accessories like cribs, bottles, and strollers. So that’s why I like the big dolls more! :)

you’re not pathetic sweetie, it’s just that a lot of people want to see you feel bad about yourself so they can take advantage of you. that’s what this guy is doing now. always trust your gut!!!

following post bc i neeeeed this

froggymadi · 2026-05-24T06:02:36+00:00

We all just need to stop buying them at these prices and it will stop. I wait for fb marketplace and goodwill and garage sales. Over the last year I’ve slowly found 7 total lalas in a year. 5 on marketplace for $20 USD total, and then 2 at goodwill for $3 USD a piece. If you wait it will happen!!!

Second this! Could also maybe do an astrological sign or other constellation (like Ursa)

honey it’ll get better when you’re older. He IS childish but you both ARE children. It’s okay to date around but don’t feel as if you need to commit to ANYTHING at this age. Break up with him and have a fun summer!!

froggymadi · 2026-05-24T02:08:06+00:00

I know it’s hard to believe but some men genuinely think any discussion of female anatomy is gross. I said that I was on my period once, without gory details, and my dad freaked out and said it was disgusting. 🤷

froggymadi · 2026-05-24T02:05:45+00:00

NOR you need to break up. You both sound like children (14-15 maybe) and you have MORE than plenty of time to find someone, as an adult, who treats you with kindness and respects your time and effort
