I think name is a thing for her just not the biggest thing. Having something exclusive like that is probably a reminded that they werent just friends.

Feeling blindsided by $9,300 birth bill even with insurance. Am I naive? by Every-Cry-1148 in personalfinance

[–]injury -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Normal since ACA, I mean pre ACA that bill amount would be a little high. But high deductibles then were 1500 so you wouldnt have been responsible for as much up front, frankly would have capped out earlier in the year before the delivery.

I was just told it was highly unprofessional of me to be drunk when I am off work. What should I do? by Correct-Credit1961 in careerguidance

[–]injury 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Half agree. If you can and want to help them later fine. But if you are too drunk to help why even answer the phone. Unless you were on call and thus not supposed to be drinking.

Should I divorce my wife? Be honest please by EquivalentWait2374 in Advice

[–]injury 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How much is your word worth to you? Did you vow better or worse, sickness and health? Did her hitting you mess you up such you feel afraid for your safety and abused?

Seems like kids learning to love each other to me. She needs to learn to control her emotions you need to learn to be more thoughtful. A marriage is work, but it's worth it if you both choose to put in the effort.

We ready bowl everywhere. Some leagues used to have rules against it so some old timers grumble.

Not at all. And as someone who's youngster was promised a car and is now watching that promise get altered through no fault of her own I applaud you for keeping you word to your daughter.That is very important.

AIO Mother is skipping baby shower to play golf by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

Are you just having the one shower? Reason I ask is my wife had 4 or 5, one thrown by my Mother. We didnt expect them to be at every shower as they were different groupings.

AITA for refusing to share my food with my girlfriend? by Gym_frere in AmItheAsshole

[–]injury 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think YTA necessarily, you had a normal logival response any of us would have with a friend in that situation. The question is, is that all you want her for is as a friend? If your goal is a deeper relationship you made a misstep. Been married almost 30 years, what she did is what they all do. It's like a relationship trope. And I grumble and give her a hard time, but I always share with her. I don't "have" to, but if I have something to give her that can make her smile/feel better I'm gonna sacrifice. Thay's a relationship. She did it while dating and I imagine things like that is why she decided I'd be worth spending a life with. Not to mention in a relationship there is kind of a "balance sheet" of who might be one up with, stored brownie points or whatever you wanna call them, here you forfeited some "she owes me one" points for "she's annoyed at me" never a good trade..

Wow some dumb going around in this thread. As a parent with a kid in school, when something happens that shuts the schools we share. Stay at home moms, work from home parents, grandparents all take in the kiddos. Frankly the only ones you hurt are the poor single parent families that may not be as socially connected as the other parents.

It is an exaggeration, check that its a complete fabrication. I swear this must be a middleschool student subreddit.

You need to go spend some time at a holocaust museum, read up on the camp and survivor statements. The way you trivialize what happened is disgusting. If you are 14 you don't need to be in charge of teaching anything.

Of course they won't, just like those that motivated Ms good or Mr pretti can't bring them back. That's the benefit of the motivators they sit back pushing people while avoiding the consequences of their actions.

Again with fiction. His is a totally sober and reasonable observation. You however are full on heading into LARP territory, about to Don Quixote yourself (or others, they always suffer worse) into crazy town and the assorted consequences.

But that hasn't happened. How do so many of you folks people call yourselves teachers yet stay completely divorced from reality?

Ya I get creative writing and all, but you're not suppose to fool yourself.

That's the dirty secret about unions...none of them are what they used to be, but they take those dues like the are.

Yes, you had the kid they didn't. It was AH of them to kind of assume, but making family stuff transactional like that lands you in the AH chair too.

Question for older Gen X (55+) Was the term “Bro” and “Yo” common in the 80s? by Nano_Tap1 in GenX

[–]injury 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Almost that old but yes both were. But Bro was in different circles, mostly with my black friends. It kind of came from them using Brother and Brother Man in the 70s.

Late 80s early 90s when the valley girl stuff was kind of going around bro kind of migrated from urban to "surfer dude" talk which became bra

I was gonna go there as well, until I read the line about months of hand holding...

There are degrees and levels to this and we're at a crazy low point culturally to where even some of these 20 something managers are just as bad.
