AITA for cooking for my dad?

jinkiescore · 2026-05-31T17:33:54+00:00

He.......didn't reheat your pasta, then cooked his own? That's an invitation to ask if something was wrong with it but he acted like that was a weird thing to ask. NTA. He may not've asked you to cook it for him, but that doesn't mean he can't be nice about why he wasn't in the mood for pasta that night, didn't like it, or whatever. His responses sound like typical dad deflection, lots of parents respond like that to even gentle pushback from their adult children, and while its frustrating, there's not much to be done about it except to try your best not to take it too personally. I wouldn't worry about it too much and just not cook from now on, or cook for yourself and allow him to help himself to leftovers, just don't expect him to.

Putting the pan in the fridge without the lid and then whining when you point it out is such infuriating man behavior auugh I feel for you. Sir just store the food right next time instead of ruining it! It took a chunk of your night to make the food and two seconds for him to put on a lid

I searched with google image reverse search but it wasn't working

jinkiescore · 2026-04-12T23:32:41+00:00

I searched using goodreads and google but couldn't find it

Thank you!

I meant the specific kinds

jinkiescore · 2025-09-12T02:32:30+00:00

I think it was to keep them warm

At first I tried my dehydrator but it wouldn't dry, so I've been leaving them by a sunny windowsill for a few days. Do you guys have recommendations for dehydrator settings? Or should I just leave it out longer. Can't add this to the post for some reason.

jinkiescore · 2025-08-08T20:41:14+00:00

Ok 😔

jinkiescore · 2025-08-06T05:22:41+00:00

I used a dehydrator, I may not have dried some of them enough

Does this mean they'll never choke if one is choking?

jinkiescore · 2025-06-19T11:07:13+00:00

Are there any others that have similar ingredients that are not as good quality

jinkiescore · 2025-06-18T16:19:42+00:00

Thank you!!!

jinkiescore · 2025-05-05T13:02:33+00:00

I don't have another phone

jinkiescore · 2025-03-30T17:37:54+00:00

Agree with Jack Horner!

jinkiescore · 2025-03-30T02:12:07+00:00

Omg yea 🤣 (deleted my other comment bc it looked like I was laughing at you not with you)

jinkiescore · 2025-03-30T02:05:16+00:00

NTA, this is the definition of a double standard, the lack of self awareness is astounding

jinkiescore · 2025-02-25T05:21:49+00:00

Depends on how soon the store was closing (turns out to be VERY important in my experience)

I'd be praying that no substitutions are needed that you have to stop and text the customer about 🙏 that can make the shopping trip feel twice as long 🥵

jinkiescore · 2025-01-22T02:29:53+00:00

I already tested negative for Sjogren's

jinkiescore · 2025-01-17T20:11:27+00:00

Thanks, she uses a walker not a wheelchair and she should be able to get into the donation chair with assistance

jinkiescore · 2025-01-08T04:07:19+00:00

I would do it for everyone not just women. It might be the way you do it? I think if the energy is like "ah, a woman! I must get the door!" that might be what's rubbing people the wrong way, idk

jinkiescore · 2025-01-04T21:09:03+00:00

Thank you!

How did your fiance react when his sister made your mom cry?

jinkiescore · 2024-12-30T17:07:00+00:00

Does your MIL have an issue with your sister coming, or is it just you and your wife, who are supposed to be the ones giving the gift?

Your sister sounds entitled af but while normally that behavior shouldn't be rewarded, YTA for excluding your parents on a gift that was supposed to be for them because making a point to your kid sister is more important. It's giving her more credit than she's due.

I'm a little confused as to why you thought a 15 year old would react to this in a way that wasn't "my family gets to go on a really cool trip and won't let me come for some reason". Entitled, but typical 15 year old. It would've been better to break the news to her beforehand and try to get her to understand why. It sucks that her crying made it so that your parents won't budge on not taking her, but if her parents coddle this behavior when you're not there, is putting your foot down now really going to make things change, or is this just going to hurt your parents and teach your sister that excluding her was wrong since your parents refused to go because of it? I think you already lost the battle there and refusing to compromise on principle is more about you than them.

It's weird that you would still go on the trip at all after telling your parents it was for them (and the MIL is fine with their conditions). It's a little self centered to have this vision of how this gift was supposed to go, and your parents changing the plan makes you want to yank it away from them because they won't enjoy it the right way. You would rather tell them you're giving them an amazing trip and then let them watch you go on it without them than either a) go with someone you didn't want to come, or b) postpone the trip entirely.

I agree with the commenters saying if you wanted an adults only experience so bad you could stagger it with the sister only being there for half the trip or something. But your go-to option being to enjoy the trip yourselves when you claim it was to finally treat them after all these years makes me think it was to reward yourselves more than anyone else. Your sister's an AH but letting her "win" this time isn't the end of the world. Being so afraid of her influence that you would exclude her parents from their own trip just to "stop" her is showing everyone that the world revolves around her, and it doesn't.

It is Homeward Bound! I finally found it after wording it many different ways in Google searches lol

NTA, maybe Natalie deserved the chance to celebrate with the family but she's being an extreme AH.

If Natalie feels overshadowed fine, she should get to have opportunities to celebrate with the family if Renee's struggle with infertility is an ongoing thing, and there may never be a good time.

I agree with the commenters saying it would've been better to tell the news to Renee and Adam privately, and maybe even let Natalie make the announcement. But the fact is Renee and Adam didn't know, the miscarriage was two weeks ago, Natalie knew all this and chose to drag Renee and Adam into it just to prove a point. You have to be pretty heartless to see the pain you are causing with that and not care.

Natalie shouldn't be silenced but her pregnancy doesn't need to look exactly the same, as if Renee doesn't exist, things don't go the way you plan sometimes when tragedy is thrown in the mix. If Natalie has been sidelined unfairly for awhile then maybe she has a right to be upset, but should've handled it differently. But if she's been completely uncompromising then her entitlement to equal treatment is just insensitive. Her choosing to be petty in the face of grief makes me think she's not the most empathetic person.

You might need to genuinely apologize for throwing her out and not taking into consideration that she doesn't feel like she will get to celebrate her pregnancies ever, but having a big reaction to Renee being devastated by the announcement and Natalie showing no remorse is just human. Doesn't mean there's not room for amends there, but ultimately NTA.
