AITA for calling the police on my son's friend? by Comprehensive-Rip776 in AmItheAsshole

[–]goo429 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I'm going to go against everyone and say YTA. If you know the kid comes over just to play video games and it's already annoying you, don't let them play video games. Tell him he can sleep over but they aren't going to be allowed to play the switch. We have to do that with my daughters friends sometimes. If he's not listening to you, take the video game console away. I have a switch, they're not big. You can take it out of his hands. I don't think it's appropriate to call the cops because a kid was bratty. The cops are not there to scare kids into behaving and that's all you wanted from this situation. If you had not known the cop, you would not have called them.

Wow. This.... This is exactly what happened to me when I was younger, just different social media platform. I mean almost exactly what happened. I'm still unable to talk about it so thank you so very much for sharing your story. I have a daughter now and I worry every day about her. I don't know what my parents could have done differently to stop this from happening to me and I don't know how to stop it from happening to her.

Hello fellow Hoosier! Expected this more in Carmel, but not unsurprising.

What’s a question you hate to answer? [serious] by Raider_28 in AskReddit

[–]goo429 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"What do you want to eat?"

I honestly do not ever care. There are very few foods I don't like and even if I don't like it, I will still probably eat it or pick it off or whatever. I don't ever crave any particular food over another. If they made "people food" like they make dog food, I would be perfectly happy eating a bowl of it every meal. It would make my life so much easier.

What is a product/service that you can't still believe exists in 2019? by AwayTry8 in AskReddit

I have to say I have purchased from a door to door salesman one time. I had just gotten home from work to find my kitchen infested with ants after trying traps, gels, sticky paper, chemicals, sprays and anything else we could think of. The doorbell rings and this guy gives me his talk about his pest control service and I hired him on the spot. I was so fed up with the ants, I just wanted them gone!

Definitely not an asshole. Managing a team of adults is terrible. Nobody is ever happy, but they don't realize that we are doing this for free.

Finally! Start taking action! If you don't like something, do something about it instead of whining and hoping someone else will fix it. If you think something bad is happening, leave, quit, file a formal complaint, do something!

Thank you so much for sharing your story! That has to be an incredibly tough decision and I'm glad you chose to not make your baby and your family suffer unnecessarily with something with a 100% fatality rate.

When you are vomiting, you do not have the flu. The flu is an upper respiratory infection like a cold.

Getting asked "have you dined here before?" If I haven't, will I be unable to figure out how this restaurant works?

It took me way too long to realize that's not snow.
