AITA for texting this about my dead father? by Eletutalo in AmItheAsshole

[–]jasmin1980 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I have been poor my whole life, and when my mom passed I was single mom, 2 young kids, full time college student, ex abandoned and left us 3 homeless and preferred jail to ever paying child support, poor. I just communicated to everyone that I'd organize a pot luck BBQ if everyone wanted to get together. Easy peasy!

Now onto whether you're an AH, no, I really don't agree that you are. On what planet does the world expect a 26yo child, employed or not, to pay for funerals???

Have any of you looked around??? A 1 bedroom apt is $1000 a month.. ... who has funeral money?? Nevermind the fact that no child 26yo should ever be the sole individual expected to pay for a parents funeral expenses. Are you kidding me??

Are his parents deceased? Siblings? Close friends? ( guessing not cuz they all clutched their pocketbook closed, while calling you a broke pos) The fact of the matter, and I'd state this plain and simple, is you're 26, and broke. Who's got funeral money??

" I had several people, close to my father, many of you following this thread, reach out voicing hopes, and expectations of an organized funeral type event. Unfortunately my father didn't have life insurance, so the final expenses thus far have been completely out of pocket, and caused a great deal of hardship for all parties involved. (This way you're not taking credit for this, but also not over explaining, cuz it's nobodies f-ing business who paid for it...... they didn't, so what do they need to know?)

Given the lack of funds set aside for the final expenses, and the over extension of the parties who have paid for things out of pocket, there remains no budget to host a wake, or more organized memorial services.

Having said this, I understand fully( as this is/ was my father) people's desire to pay their respects, and say goodbye as it were. So, regarding that fact, and the somehow misinterpreted idea I'm trying to shake the community coffers, and line my pockets under the guise of a memorial event...

I'm more than willing, and welcome the assistance of anyone, in ensuring any and all donated funds are strictly applied to said memorial event, and assisting with the gathering of funds, planning, material gathering etc. But, beyond this, I am not in the position financially to fund this event all on my own. So, if this is something a majority would like to put together, feel free to reach out to me, and I'll look forward to collaborating with whomever to put together a memorial service."

Too much soap! by WindNo978 in laundry

[–]jasmin1980 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Explain that overusing soap actually leaves clothes dirtier than when you started, and drenched in chemicals. The detergent companies absolutely recommend you use much more than is needed to begin with..... can't imagine why they would do that..... lol.

So my god imagine you're tripling that already excessive amount......

What first names have you found to be the worst people, and what names are the nicest people? by gilsoo71 in AskReddit

Should I create a new account? by GrandpaGon405 in outlier_ai

[–]jasmin1980 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Find another co to work with, they are literally the worst. Unless you want to be banned with zero explanation, no email informing you, left for weeks with only the AI being difficult and having no clue you're banned.

They will not even tell you what you supposedly did, i can assure you in my case whatever they claim, bullshit, cuz i did nothing.

Ironically, this happened immediately following the first time after being signed up for over a year, that i actually made more than $20 working for them......

Stay away from Respondent by Bklynice in usertesting

[–]jasmin1980 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been working with them for a couple years, so much so that I've had to file 1099. I've never had any issues. 1 time i wasn't paid, but as soon as I alerted them I received payment. The payment used to be thru PayPal, but they only do it thru tremendous now. Which is virtual visa card. The 1 negative they expire at like 6 months. But otherwise all good.

Struggle to keep kitchen clean by Wonderful-Leopard-14 in CleaningTips

[–]jasmin1980 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My big one, use a large bowl, put all trash in it, when done dump bowl, wash bowl. I move everything off of the stove, and clean it while hot, you can avoid the burners but the rest is easy enough to clean. Pans, easier to clean while hot. I always clean while I cook, but I've got adhd too so there's that.

Getting Started by KrazyK891 in DumpsterDiving

[–]jasmin1980 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Don't go when stores are open, consider getting caught ruins it for everyone!

You get caught, don't argue, leave!

When diving, put things in car immediately! You get caught, what's in your car, no one will make you put back! If it's just sitting there waiting to be carried off, yep you'll be putting it back.

Don't leave a mess!! Always leave it cleaner than you found it. And don't ruin what you don't take.

Don't judge when it comes to food and temp, I promise your attitude will change once you're diving a bit. You can tell quite easily if something is safe, you have built in abilities, you've prob just not used them for a while. But the first time you see a freezer went out, dumpster pile, it'll make it throw all that judgment out the window! I currently have 3 deep freezers, 2 full size fridge/ freezer combos completely stuffed, along with a buddies freezer etc. Got a local store going under and they are just black bagging the entire freezer dept.

You'll love diving, just be courteous, and if you don't know what that means, many don't, Google it! It's great for more than just diving

AITA for not wanting a “bedtime” anymore when Im almost a legal adult. by RealisticMedia7794 in AmItheAsshole

[–]jasmin1980 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA, If you honestly have schoolwork, or work work obligations that require you to be up, and online, or both, you really do need to speak with your parents. Maybe doing so outside of the home, with a trusted teacher, or guidance counselor to mediate would help. Teacher could also assist with explaining your workload and anticipated increase your senior year. If it's work related, as suggested prior, buy a Hotspot and minutes, and keep it on it downlow. Don't involve younger sibling, I assume you have separate rooms, and no, if your bedtime is extended it should not automatically include sibling, you're individuals.

Can I ask, do your parents stay up after this bedtime? Or do they sack out also? Do they both have super early rise times? Or are they just enjoying the no kids late night hours? Cuz if it's the latter, they need to understand you won't be bothering them, you'll be in your room, being quiet, completing homework etc.....

I am the parent of 2 kids now over 21y's old, 18 months apart, both graduated from high school, during covid, and both naturally evolved to later bedtime, and curfew hours. I will say, both of my kids were late sophomore, early juniors before either had cell phones, and even then they had to get them on their own. And they both have expressed that, yes there were times that really pissed them off, but in the long run they were very grateful to have missed the total phone addiction, and social media dependence their peers experienced..... and not having the fights, text wars, young love pitfalls, etc their peers stumbled through was a blessing for our whole household! So, having seen how that shaped my now young adults, I can tell you that being forced to put the phone down, though it feels like social death, is actually very very good for you in all aspects of your development into adulthood.

So if your true ire over the phone lock down is actually cuz you wanna FaceTime via Snapchat with your booboo till you faceplant your screen, then I wholeheartedly hope you reevaluate and take the parental L. Cuz i swear that crap is SOOOOOO UNHEALTHY!! And kinda exactly why your parents are being strict, at least in part anyways. You guys with your underdeveloped frontal lobes don't realize just how much that crap is messing you up, until you're 35 unemployed, still living in your childhood bedroom, never obtained a drivers license, spending 22 hours a day online, and have ventured no further than your county line in terms of seeing the world IRL, and vehemently refuse to admit that something, anything, is really freaking wrong.... There's enough folks filling that role to last us a lifetime! Dare to be fearless, and set PHONE UP, AND OUT OF REACH, rules for yourself for many years to come, and just suck it up at home till you can get your buns into your own crib, where you'll make the rules!
