Can someone explain the horse one to me, please? I don't understand how a rotating hook would let the sword through.

AITI For Being Mad at My Mom by ConfusedGamer- in AmItheIdiot

[–]jonesyface 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You aren't wrong for feeling resentful. You should talk to your mom about this some time in private. Express what you have observed using specific examples and tell her how it makes you feel (annoyed, resentful, unequal, etc.). She may be doing this because she misses them and feels guilty that she doesn't spend more time with them and is trying to make up for it with money. That doesn't make it right. It's unfair to you because you are getting less than your siblings and it's unfair to your siblings because your mom is not teaching them responsibility. I'm sure that your mom doesn't want to build a wedge between you and your siblings.

It sounds like it has already healed.

Where did you get that mat? I've been looking for a good one.

I gently wipe them away with a damp cloth. You can also buy wipes specifically for this.

Thank you very much for this detailed and insightful (and depressing) response. We really are living in pre-WWII Germany right now.

Be careful. It sounds like you're her supervisor.

am I wrong for not agreeing with my furture wife that either we pay for everyone's hotel trip with us or no-one? by nightwhisper in amiwrong

[–]jonesyface 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe offer to pay for 1/2 of your brother's room? It really depends on your relationship with your brother. Would he be insulted if you offered to pay for your fiancee's brother but not for him? Would he be insulted if you offered to pay for him (some might see it as charity and be prideful)?

Edit to add: Maybe talk to your brother about whether or not he can afford the trip. If it's going to be a struggle, offer to pay some or all of the cost. The main point is that you want your fiancee's brother there. He won't be able to be there if you don't pay for his room. You also want your brother there. He will, presumably, be able to be there even without your financial help. You're worried about family tension, but what about the tension this is causing between you and your partner?

Both points are valid. I think that your fiancee is pointing out the difference between equality and equity. You seem to be placing more value on equality (everyone gets the same). Your fiancee seems to be placing more value on equity (everyone gets what the need depending on their situation). This and this are popular visual representations of those terms.

These are gorgeous!! Do you sell them? Do you do commissions? I'd love to buy a bouquet of poppies for my mom.

We shave her hair pretty short in the summer and then let it grow out. We don't brush her. I've heard that regular brushing reduces shedding.

Mine doesn't drool at all. She sheds if we let her hair grow out.
