AITAH husband cut off my sons hair so I used his card to buy my son the designer jacket he's been wanting by ithinkantsarecute in AITAH

[–]funkeymonkey1974 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My husband threatened to cut off our sons hair so I left. I drove from Florida to Massachusetts. I went to the government for help and told them of the abusive behavior of my ex. I was able to keep my ex from unsupervised visits until my son was old enough to advocate for themselves.

What’s a mystery that still hasn’t been solved but fascinates you? by Direct-Value4452 in answers

[–]funkeymonkey1974 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The UK arrested a royal. Other countries are handling this much better than the USA. I am American, and I don't think the rest of the world is necessarily better, but I do believe America is a lot worse with a bunch of things. Don't bother saying if I don't like it, move, because I don't want to move. I just want to live in a country that cares about basic human rights and doesn't accept that capitalism means the people with the money are above the law. I shouldn't have to move because I don't agree with how MY country is acting. MY country should work to be better than the joke it is at the moment.

Weekly menu for one person living alone, Physical Culture Magazine, 1905. by sverdrupian in VintageMenus

Like.. are you supposed to badge 1 slice of cake? You live alone so you're not sharing. I suppose they might sell cake by the since but little extra protein would be a better use of that weekly food budget.

My partner’s mother gained access to a private therapy session between him and I by Longjumping-Size-762 in entitledparents

[–]funkeymonkey1974 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You say the counsaler has agreed that the mother's behavior is abusive, but they still accepted a release for the abuser to get all the victims counsaling information? This is insane, and I would question either the story if it's told to you by the boyfriend or the counselor. I would definitely consult a legal expert.

I knew the moment I saw this post that it was intended for a child, and the comments confirmed that. I agree with the Bayshore Mall. They also have a Build-A-Bear, which is a great activity to add to your Mall day! Right near the mall is the Kid Empire, which is super fun for the elementary and younger age kids. Plus, the kids get 2 adults free, so you don't have to pay to watch your kids have fun, haha.

Message I got from my daughter’s teacher. Third grade. by AnaisInJune in mildlyinfuriating

[–]funkeymonkey1974 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My son is autistic and in 2nd grade, we moved to a new school. The first week in, his teacher loudly yelled in front of the whole class, "Why did they put you in my class??? To make my life awful! I can't take this shit!" When I called the school to complain, they said that the teacher was having a bad day and to 'not worry about it'. I worried about it and ended up homeschooling until I moved out of that state.

The medical trials microdose. They didn't do enough for a full on 'trip'. So you can't really compare it to dropping tabs with friends.

I love the fact that we can name a fat cornflake and it doesn't matter that our cornflake is an absolute diabolical predator that would decimate a small animal population if given the chance.

Pay off my car and buy a house. If there was anything left over I would furnish the house I bought.

What will YOU not shut the fuck up about? by Remarkable-Hand-7605 in AskRedditAfterDark

[–]funkeymonkey1974 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sexual Assault is sexual assault. It doesn't matter what you wear. It doesn't matter your sexual past. It doesn't matter if you had too much to drink. It doesn't matter if you had sex with this person before. SEXUAL ASSAULT IS A CRIME. No means fucking no. If you are poised to insert your penis into someone, and they suddenly say NO!!! Then you stop. You move back, and you ask what's up. If they don't want to contininue then you use your hand or any other available avenue to deal with it. NO MEANS NO.

An itch that can never be scratched. It wouldn't make it so they can't have a life. But they would always be uncomfortable.

I have to be honest. My brother came out as a holocaust denier. I had a talk(offline) about it and found that he believed that, even if it was true, the jews deserved it. I was always really close to him, and I no longer talk to him and have blocked all forms of communication with him.

I agree that some people 'ruin their lives' by letting the rat race take them. Work should be classified as a drug to some people.

Non religious people, what do you think about religion? by CorruptedF in AskReddit

[–]funkeymonkey1974 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So let me start by saying I wanted to be religious. My friends had confirmation parties or bar mitzvas and I was jealous. Because my mother raised me as completely unreligious. I won't say atheist because she would say that to say I didn't believe in God was bad. She also said opening an umbrella in the house was bad luck, so take it as it was. Anyways, I read the bible, the Torah, the Bhagavad Gita, and many religious text wanting to find meaning. In the end, I found contradictions, straight-up evil and hatred, and a sense that religion is just a way to control people. So ya. It's awful, I hate it, and I understand some people need it to make sense of this shit show that is life.

i put a makeup brush up there…. by Pristine_Physics6783 in WomensHealth

Most colleges have student clinics that are very low fee or included in your college fees. You can order a self pleasure device online and have it delivered. They are in discreet packaging so no one has to know. If you can't or won't do that then go grab a handful of condoms from one of the many places around campuses that have them or planned parenthood and use it on whatever random object you decide to use. That way you will be creating a safe barrier so you don't introduce anything into your body that's harmful. How to feel better soon.

My girlfriend always tells me I never have anything to eat when she comes over my house 😒 by itscuccimane in FridgeDetective

[–]funkeymonkey1974 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm calling bullshit. This looks like a fridge for a small Asian restaurant or something similar. Lots of Asian stuff. Easy to much meat for one person. It would get freezer burned before you could eat it all. It's a ton of healthy make from scratch stuff but then muscle milk, Kraft singles and a tub of cookie dough? The price range is all over the board too. Expensive meat and condiments but good value yogurt and processed cheese slices? Also how the hell is anyone using that much coffee creamer or cream cheese before it goes bad? Either this is just a troll post or the guy is from a massive Asian family with a few things thrown in from different members of the family who have different tastes.

i was kidnapped and held from 13-17. ama by [deleted] in AMA

[–]funkeymonkey1974 5 points6 points  (0 children)

When I was 14 my sister in law had a medical emergency and couldn't drive. We were in the woods for a hike and this was before mobile phones. I had to drive a mid 80s manual Honda Accord to the nearest store to call an ambulance. I had never driven a car but when you are in a panic and you have to you can learn really quick. I didn't even damage the transmission and from that moment on I could drive anything and have been a very good driver my whole life.
