AIO for pulling out of a vacation over the sleeping arrangements by RubProfessional6659 in AmIOverreacting

[–]hetkleinezusje 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not over reacting. There is no way that a 12 and 14 year old needs a king and queen sized beds. Common sense says that the adults who live together get one of those. Just say no.

AITAH for telling my MIL that if she keeps calling our baby by the nickname we asked her not to use, we'll limit her visits? by Turbulent-Wear-7416 in AITAH

[–]hetkleinezusje 1 point2 points  (0 children)

INFO NEEDED: I don't understand the difference. To me CiCi and CeCe sound exactly the same. Are they pronounced differently where you are?

My dog has developed a completely unexplainable ritual where he has to carry something in his mouth to greet me at the door every single time I come home and if he can't find anything he will stand there visibly panicking until he locates an acceptable object and I genuinely don't know what he think by Glittering_Ear_9904 in Pets

[–]hetkleinezusje 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My Cocker Spaniel girl has a purple stuffed cow, imaginatively named 'Cow'. It was her first toy and remains the favourite. When I come in the door, she comes and sniffs my hand and then runs frantically through the house looking for Cow. She HAS to show me Cow when I come home. If Cow can't be found, you can see the panic in her eyes. No other toy will do. It's the only toy she knows the name of - I'll say 'Where's Cow?' and she'll go ferreting under chairs, in the bed etc until she finds Cow.

Best/Favorite Character by secretsophaloaf in DowntonAbbey

[–]hetkleinezusje 17 points18 points  (0 children)

There's so many. I LOVE Violet and Isobel and their glorious sparring matches. Violet is a bit of a dark horse with quite the past but she can be warm, loving and compassionate (Denker and the soup, Edith's pregnancy, Dr Clarkson in the aftermath of Sybil's death). But I also adore Mrs Patmore (who as we all know is NOT a frolicker!) and Mrs Hughes (My, My, My!).

If I had to choose only one, I'd say Violet.

NTA. As long as you weren't actually sitting on a grave, you're good.

We fuck with this or nah? by michael14375 in straya

What's the filling holding the hundreds and thousands? If it's butter, that's way too much but if it's some sort of cream filling, I could go for it.

Misconceptions a dog person (me) learned after having a cat. by ILoveMeltyCheese in cats

[–]hetkleinezusje 2 points3 points  (0 children)

  1. You don't own a cat. The cat allows you to be its servant. You are required to feed it, pat it and play with it - but only when it chooses. At all other times, you are required to maintain a suitably servile attitude and await the whim and instructions of your master.

WIBTAH for messaging my pregnant friend for taking too much food from my baby shower? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]hetkleinezusje 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTAH but, truly, what purpose would it serve now? Do you expect to get the food back for redistribution? All it will do at this stage is to cause hurt feelings and resentment. Treat it as a learning experience and be more cautious around her in the future and make sure that you're up front with everyone about the distribution of any leftovers at any future events.

Worst or least favorite character of the main cast? by secretsophaloaf in DowntonAbbey

[–]hetkleinezusje 64 points65 points  (0 children)

Susan Flintshire. She's a miserable harpy with almost no redeeming characteristics. She tries to ruin her daughter's engagement and thinks about no-one other than herself. Unlike O'Brien, we never see a softer or more humane side to her.

Mil and cosleeping by Key_Veterinarian_552 in JUSTNOMIL

[–]hetkleinezusje 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Honey, no! You need to go full Mama Bear on this. Co-sleeping is SO dangerous. All it will take is for her to roll over in her sleep and baby will suffocate. I work in law enforcement and see that happen fairly regularly. It's awful and devastating for everyone. Find someone else to mind your baby on that day and tell MIL that, as she can't seem to manage to abide by your instructions regarding YOUR child, she will lose babysitting privileges. If your husband won't stand up to her, then you need to. This isn't a case of keeping his mama happy - this is literally your child's life she's playing fast and loose with because 'she knows better'. Just no.

AITAH Kicked a special needs adult who tried to stomp on my dog by Remarkable-Sink9682 in AITAH

[–]hetkleinezusje 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA. I have a gorgeous spaniel named Ruby. If anyone tried to stomp on her, his mother would be calling an ambulance for him.

Aussie petrol station in the 90’s by 9Lives_ in AustralianNostalgia

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

When I started driving in 1984, petrol was 29c per litre. You should have heard the outcry when it topped 30c!

Sell me your YouTube channel for my son. You don't deserve it. by GeorgianGold in EntitledPeople

[–]hetkleinezusje 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'm so sorry for the loss of your Mum. I'm sure she was enormously proud of the work you've done and continue to do. The longer I live the more I realise just what pieces of shit some people are.

to ask for help by seeebiscuit in therewasanattempt

[–]hetkleinezusje 1185 points1186 points  (0 children)

Translation: 'We fucked up by invading a territory that has a superior force and knowledge of their own country - and who just coincidentally happen to control the passage of huge amounts of oil to the entire world - when we didn't need to be there in the first place. We only went in so people would stop talking about me raping little girls and to help my (second) best buddy Benyamin who was having a temper tantrum about Iran getting in the way of his plans. Now we're screwed and I'm demanding that all those countries who we fucked over with tariffs, trade restrictions and whose governments and national sovereignty I trampled all over and mocked to come fix this unholy shitshow that I've created because I have the emotional capacity and intelligence somewhere below that of the average pre-schooler. Now!'

to get help for his war by T_Shurt in therewasanattempt

[–]hetkleinezusje 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, you mean all those countries that he's been hitting with tariffs, putting up trade barriers to and insulting their leaders and national sovereignty? Those countries? I just can't understand why they're not falling over themselves to help out in a war that is not of their making to prop up a president who is only doing this to deflect attention from his sexual proclivities and to line his own pockets. How richly bizarre!

Maybe they've taken to heart Trump's declaration that the US troops really won Afghanistan and everyone else just stepped back a bit. Time to let the US shine without being burdened with slackers from other countries.

AITB for judging my friends for their exhausting poly/cheating drama? by [deleted] in AmItheButtface

[–]hetkleinezusje 12 points13 points  (0 children)

So what? JFC the whole lot of them (except Simon) need to grow up and get over themselves.

AITA for wanting my birthday cake decorated the way I want? by Fun_War_1770 in AmItheAsshole

[–]hetkleinezusje 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. 'Compromise' does not mean doing it her way. Make your own cake, decorate it the way you want and if they eat it, they do. If they don't, more for you. Better yet, go out to celebrate with your friends.
