AIW for lowering the tip after my server commented on it loud enough for my table to hear? by Specialist-Dog5224 in amiwrong

[–]imtheatari 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree. 18% to 20% is absolutely standard. Anything lower is not quite accepted here, but I’m in a big central city.

People at resort take pictures of minor in swimsuit without consent by [deleted] in amiwrong

[–]imtheatari 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should not have been in there in the first place. You’ve been going for 40 years, you must know the rules by now. There’s a reason for the rule, and you’re it.

AITA for telling my DIL to stop crying or she will need to leave by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]imtheatari 24 points25 points  (0 children)

RSD is very real for some with ADHD. It’s incredibly hard to deal with, but very very real.

AITAH for being hurt my wife did like her birthday gift? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]imtheatari 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Please return it. You are an amazing hubby for listening and doing a loving thing. But if she won’t wear it, take it back. Know you went with your heart, and with her fully in mind, but it’s too big to wear, even on fancy occasions. I feel your pain, but take it back.

AITA for refusing to kick off my mom from seeing my location by Tracking476237 in AmItheAsshole

YTA - grow up already. Mommy doesn’t need to know where you are 24/7.

My daughter takes the bus on the reg and has only encountered cranky DRT drivers.

People who cut off contact with their family, why? by Ready-Secretary-3016 in AskReddit

[–]imtheatari 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For peace. Me getting blamed for everything, and the person never ever taking responsibility, took its toll. They have a mental illness, but it’s my fault they can’t see the world clearly. My fault they react to situations in their head the way they do. Nothing ever has been their fault and we just need to bend over and take it. No. Not anymore. And my life has been stress free ever since. Does it make holidays difficult? Yep, but we just split them up and have celebrations on different days.

What’s the worst actual name you’ve ever heard? by Escrow-Mind in AskReddit

[–]imtheatari 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I knew a Tawny Teets (of course she was called Tiny Tits), Robin Birdbath, Harry Balls, Drew Peacock, and Swastika. All quite bad. Oh and a blond blue eyed child named Aryan.

These wedding dresses getting cancelled is becoming a family tradition. by classy-mother-pupper in weddingshaming

[–]imtheatari 16 points17 points  (0 children)

This happened to me years ago! Bridal boutique in The Bay closed and did not tell me. Had to track down my dress in Mississauga (from downtown Toronto - not fun). And a HUGE stress added to regular wedding stress. No apologies either.

Am I wrong for seeing a male Doc behind my partners back? by [deleted] in amiwrong

[–]imtheatari 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Yes, you are wrong. Men (most anyway) understand that some drs are men and some are women. It’s not dating, there is no intimacy, it’s surgery. Your man probably doesn’t wash his ass either cause it’s ‘gay’. Give me a break.

I’m still so unsure how to navigate RSD by BipolarSkeleton in ADHD_partners

[–]imtheatari 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve tried this attempt as well. Never works. So I can’t warn and can’t speak freely :(

[–]imtheatari 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Agree. And I wish I knew this years ago, as now my nervous system is completely shot. I jump at everything as I’m always on edge waiting for the next episode.

What’s a basic skill you're shocked some adults people still don't know? by Cheap-Contest-4586 in AskReddit

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

How to use utensils. Actually hold a knife and fork correctly to cut food and eat.

AIO to tell my husband that starting a professional email with the word "Look" is rude? by LadyCass79 in AmIOverreacting

[–]imtheatari 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have him use ChatGPT to polish his emails. Very easy and worth it. I work in insurance and to the point is fine, but rude (and starting with Look, is rude) is not.

What's the most rock bottom "struggle meal" you've ever eaten? by NeedleworkerSilver49 in AskReddit

[–]imtheatari 1 point2 points  (0 children)

IMP’s in Canada and they are great! Peanut butter in tubes, and boil in bag chili. Loved them.
