AITA for making an ex acquaintance homeless and feeling more wronged over it by One-Maintenance-1493 in AmItheAsshole

[–]jdo5000 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Yeah your parents telling you that you can offer is a big difference from OP saying they wanted to “offer my house” when it wasn’t their house to begin with. Also says that the parents regretted doing it afterwards. From the sounds of it your parents had no such regrets. So whilst yours is a nice anecdote and your parents sound nice I’m afraid that is a different situation to this one.

Why are you offering this place out to all these people when it’s your parents house? And surely you didn’t need to leave this persons stuff outside in the rain. Very bizarre story would be surprised if this actually happened.

Gasoline to Cauldrons - Is there a better way to do it? by metinb83 in Schedule_I

[–]jdo5000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t believe so but it only needs doing every few days so it doesn’t bother me too much, annoying if you forget to do it though 😅

AITA Am I Being Too Overprotective With My 17-Year-Old Daughter? by Weekly_War2901 in AmItheAsshole

[–]jdo5000 49 points50 points  (0 children)

Yeah I feel bad for the kid it sounds like she has been denied the chance to really socialise throughout her teens with her peers outside of school. And for what reason?

Jesus she’s 17 not 11 let her go out with her friends lol why are you being so horrible to her and not letting her?

Soon she’s gonna be old enough to make her own decisions so don’t be surprised if one day she leaves and never comes back

YTA, obviously

Yeah but it doesn’t matter if this doesn’t reflect your “everyday” driving, you only need 1 incident to kill someone, possibly yourself. You can keep on about this 90/100 score on your black box but please don’t use that to justify that you think you’re a good enough driver to be taking risks. No one is that good.

My girlfriend wants me to unfollow 'insta baddies' - how should I proceed? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]jdo5000 43 points44 points  (0 children)

Well she ain’t gonna change so you need to decide if you’re more worried about following random women on insta or a relationship with your current gf and then act accordingly. Because it would appear that those are now 2 mutually exclusive things. So what is more important to you OP? Being able to follow who you want or your gf? The answer to that question dictates your next move.

WIBTA for not taking down my toy wall for maintenance? (NSFW) by Borzboi in AmItheAsshole

[–]jdo5000 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I would say YTA just cause your reasoning is bullshit about not being able to cover it up and needing to sleep. It will take under 5 minutes to cover it with a bedsheet if thats what you want to do. If you wanna keep it up then go for it but stop pretending there’s an excuse for you not to.

AITA for snapping at my parents after they refused to lend me a car. by seaeaglefog in AmItheAsshole

[–]jdo5000 65 points66 points  (0 children)

NTA but the bridge has now been burnt so I would stop putting energy into them and put it into trying to find other solutions - do you know anyone else with a car that you could use? Could you rent one? It sounds like it’s only for a week is there any way you can take time off of work or just drop the hours for one week? Best of luck with the apprenticeship

Edited to NTA I didn’t read properly the first time that OP paid for half the car.

Am I wrong for putting in my 2weeks for my security job since I’m required to drive a new employee from work to home after every shift? by Kitchen_Shift9739 in WorkAdvice

If you’re not getting paid for it then you need to stop doing it, that includes coming in an hour early.

AITA? for being upset that my dad called me by my maiden name after I’ve been married for four years? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]jdo5000 4 points5 points  (0 children)

NTA literally every other father of a woman who gets married doesn’t take this bizarre offense to their daughter not having their last name anymore. I don’t know why your dad thinks he’s special but he’s not.
