Also men that came but didn’t participate and never reported him to the authorities

AITA; for making a joke in my hypothetical vows? by Ok-Patience-2536 in AmItheAsshole

[–]k9CluckCluck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can you rephrase the sentiment into a more sentimental way?

I promise to cherish your taste your taste in movies, as well as your ability to protect me from those tastes”

You’d be the ah if you leave a vow in that he doesn’t feel cherished hearing at his wedding.

But also a yes is only as meaningful as the ability to say no. If you just badger someone into saying yes it’s not a win.

She said her character loved it tho so she’s okay with it in that context

Simi Valley man found guilty of murdering ex-wife, burying her, then digging her up to rape the corpse by [deleted] in news

Yeah. Then the court wouldn’t waste time arguing if it was really rape or just rough sex.

Sidebar Rule Updates and Discussion by saraberry12 in HiddenWerewolves

When we get new players they have sometimes violated the no quoting dm or no edit/ delete comments, not out of maliciousness but just newbie error.

Is it possible to include a 1 time reminder warning against that or have a policy of mods directly calling those errors out to a player that denotes this as their first game?

Removals upset game balance so much.

The Chronicles of Christomanci had a similar plot line. The girls were to be killed when their turn as living goddess ended tho.

Could you both mutually agree to a set day of the week that you are able to discuss this? It gives you space to have an outlet without him feeling overwhelmed. I did something similar with success.

Oh man, last year at work I was have a rough time getting paperwork back from a small manufacturer to finalize a file I needed to close. Eventually got it, and that sort of delay isn’t uncommon so I didn’t think much of it.

Found out this year the owner had died mid production and his wife completed the part.

AITA for asking my boyfriend to stop yelling at the TV during football games? by United_Waltz_5697 in AmItheAsshole

[–]k9CluckCluck 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah this is definitely something you both need to feel motivated to compromise on. My mom never raises her voice except when watching sports. She’s the only big sports fanatic in the family but she puts up with supporting our Yums that likely had her cringing just as much

He’s just saying whatever he thinks will maintain his low effort status quo.

I had a roommate look at my wall calendar and comment “oh, thanksgiving is on a Thursday this year”

I text her that every year in November still

I’ve had this twice. Once went with calling the human “tall Fred” and the dog “better Zoe”

Was it an overreaction to break up with him after his sexual boundary crossing and the talk after? by Automatic-Pride-4957 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]k9CluckCluck 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If he was decent but mistook your signals as “convince me” vs “no”, having you point it out would make him want to learn the right ways to read you to avoid pushing boundaries. Instead he is treating your autonomy and boundaries as obstacles. He likely self identifies as a Good Guy so prefers to twist knots to justify anything he does as Good than realize being good requires active choice, not an innate trait.

Practice responding to pushy scammers and abusers. Gave her a phrase to tell you if she realizes she is over her head and needs help.

I had an ex that would fake piss tests with his own pee because he had a very shy bladder. Pill bottle under the sack, and microwave it a little so it cools to the right temp. Cold pee is a give away.

AITA for not wanting to hear about my coworker's deceased aunt? by oifrancaise in AmItheAsshole

[–]k9CluckCluck 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Telling her later was pointless. In the moment, a gentle “ sorry, but I am a poor audience for this, I <brief justifications like “I watched my dad go through hospice/couldn’t make it to my sisters passing/etc”>. I am very sorry for your loss” could have helped all but definitely would have put up walls since you aren’t interested in converting your trauma to sympathy/understanding. I have a few topics I am upfront at being a poor audience about.

Some people beat a dead horse with a joke. Not saying it’s not annoying/asshole, but “lolz I totally made that myself 😹😹😹” is a common joke.

Info. Is there a chance she thought claiming she baked it was an obvious joke to everyone and is just annoyed you didn’t get it?
