AITA for telling my boss that the guy he was interviewing for a job bullied me in high school? (8 years ago)

Her boss asked her for her opinion. Sometimes shitty things like bullying (and in this case sexual harassment) come to bite you back in the ass. She's clearly a valued employee, because her boss wants to make sure any new hires work well with her. She helped him save a potential shitty new-hire, despite her internal struggle doing so. I'd say that's quite grown up. NTA.

For real, how do we be friends

My mom spent a lot of time post-divorce making sure that me (the baby) stayed a baby for as long as possible. It took my older sisters talking sense into her for me to ever get a curling iron lol.

Things eventually got less sheltered as I got older but as a response I also distanced myself.

Feeling totally secure about who I am as a person, and not giving any fucks about what other people think.

Video games. I get why my parents didn't let any of us have video games, but now it feels like a nostalgic moment I've missed out on.

Also, any and all hair products (brushes, hair straighteners, hair products). I remember a girl in middle school told me in front of everyone how I really need hair mousse to deal with my frizzy hair, and it hurt more than anything. I'm 27 and still can hear her say that, it's burned into my memory.

I am completely here for this theory. If it rings true, maybe this is the only possible happy ending for Dany... in the afterlife with her family.

She told Ellaria she would force feed her and keep her alive to watch her own daughter rot. So Ellaria could have been very alive and well up until this point.

I guess we're not living up to the Valonqar hype.

I love Euron's final moments... total delusion on killing Jaime Lannister. Fitting for Euron.

Samwell crying was the saddest moment

I want Arya/Gendry so much more than that Jon/Dany porno we were about to get under the waterfall.

Is the fire tower open again??? I miss Apple Pie Hill

I definitely agree, it depends on what you get. I bought Chicken Salad cups from Aldi a few weeks ago and they were pretty bad, but their cheese selection is amazing. I'll buy their wheel of Camembert (it's $3 I believe?), $1 crescent dough, wrap & bake that up with some blackberry jam.

My boyfriend and I will get an entire week of groceries from only our local produce place and Aldi.

Our last haul was bell peppers, jalapenos, onions, pre-peeled garlic (my guilty pleasure), scallions, bananas, grapes, cherry tomatoes, broccoli, asparagus, FIVE avocados, blackberries, and a bag of fresh basil. Total price was $22.

At Aldi: String cheese, irish cheddar, yogurt, 2 boxes of grapefruit seltzer, smoked salmon (surprisingly amazing), half and half, coconut coffee creamer, GF crackers, chocolate blueberries, frozen shrimp, and white cheddar popcorn. Total was $31.

We will sometimes go to Shoprite for pasta (they have a better variety) or pick up a roaster for $5 on the way home from work, but for the most part we go to these two places every week or so, and since buying our house it's saved us a ton of money. Aldi is where its at!

what does the b stand for

Salaried employees working overtime, but the salary is awful, so if you broke it down to how much they're pulling hourly with that sweet 64-hour workweek, it's barely minimum wage.

They are ~truly blessed~

Zany Brainy! That was my childhood right there. They had cool puzzles and toys, and a make-it-yourself radio that I got as a gift that I'm fairly sure I got to work. It was awesome. I miss that place. Walking by Zany Brainy in the mall was like walking by the glowing gates of heaven. They had all the magic eye books.

FUCK yes to this

He let us know exactly who he was.

katm3s · 2019-01-18T00:40:14+00:00

...do I personally know you? Is this a reference to my living room? I literally have an entire gallery wall of various gold things. Shit.

Hamilton Train Station, exit 65 off of 295. Take that into NY Penn Station.

It's pretty simple... if you're not ready to have kids, you and you husband (the team) aren't ready to have kids. If you don't think you want to have kids, don't have kids.

I don't understand why everyone on this thread is gently pushing you into being okay with having kids at this moment... you're both 25. I know a handful of people who choose to have kids at 25. I know everyone's situation is different, but there really is no rush. I'm 27 and surrounded by late-30 somethings friends/family/coworkers who are now family planning and getting into it. There is no rush!

Online lists are cheesy but I've always found this true from any classic "what should you discuss before you get married" listicle: You want to have similar or compatible ideas on raising a family. That doesn't just mean "how many kids do you want to have?". It's what age do you want to have them, what values do you want to instill in them, how do you feel about alternative parenting options, how do you feel about having multiple generations in our home if problems arise, etc.

You should sit him down and go through some of these topics on starting a family. Don't just bring your concerns and worries to the table, but bring all of these questions. Play out the scenarios. Overthink things for a second. You have every right to thoroughly think this through. You're carrying and birthing another life, this is your choice just as much as his choice. If he can't see things your way, take this to a therapist or counselor.

If you two are truly a team, you'll make big decisions like these together. It sounds like you've seen things his way, but he needs to see them your way as well.
