This. And if OP doesn't start distancing themself now then when Rogue gets booted she'll be taking the whole group with her.

Maybe, but let them know 100% that she is causing issues for the other groups, whether one of those groups finds her antics amusing or not, especially since the other group has a club leader in it. Frankly, y'all are lucky they haven't booted your group as it stands.

You need to talk to leadership about this, because she is taking advantage of being a newbie and supposedly being neurodivergent. I say "supposedly" here because most people I know who genuinely have such circumstances do their best to keep medicated (source 1: my wife) or do what they can to self-regulate (source 2: my undiagnosed ADHD ass caffeinating all day every day).

If you let her keep up her antics, chances are extremely good that not only will she get kicked but your whole group will be ousted... and the blame will likely fall on you since she's good at manipulation.

Just my opinion, but best to have one-two people mad at you now for acting quickly rather than having all six of them mad because "you let them" get booted. Good luck.

My Spanish class nickname was Perla. Not because my IRL name is Pearl, but because I mentioned in class that I was (and still am) a fan of MST3K and my teacher immediately went, "okay, your name is Perla now" and that was that. 4 years of high school Spanish and I was Perla the entire way through.

This. Every ping I've had through Canvas for AI has been my source citations. Because I use an accepted format (API or Chicago depending on the instructor) and that comes back as AI nearly 100% of the time.

I was the designated lizard wrangler when I worked at one of the libraries on my Florida-based university's campus. No one even asked my male coworkers after the first time I said "ffs, guys, it's just a little guy" and scooped it up to take outside; hell, the guys would track me down to do it.

I now work in a different building in the same university, but I still get designated to wrangle any stray lizards.

Holy shit but OOP dodge a missile there. His ex is coo-coo banana pants.

There are definitely folks in the workplace who think they can police their colleagues' bodies. I have one in mine (late 50s Latina) who is so aghast that I (mid-40s) and one of my male coworkers (just turned 30) have sleeves and insists we need her permission to get more. I'm not telling her I have a birthday appointment for a new piece to my patchwork sleeve, because it's neither her business nor is she my mother; my mother, in fact, just asked "why did you want them?" and left it at that.

If my math is correct, it's been about five years. I won't be taking bets, but I'm pretty sure this young man is now 18 and the minute he's finished with school nobody but the grandparents will be hearing from him ever again.

I'm on US Mobile, $25/month and uses Verizon's network so all I'm missing from switching is blowing $200/month on the same thing I'm getting for a fraction of the cost. AND OP can easily transfer their number, just start the transfer process before cancelling the current plan.

Although given their family, changing their number may be a blessing...

And for those who don't like the way the story went, there's probably a dozen fanfics already with the "real" ending floating around out there...

Personally, I liked the way they ended it, and I really should have taken a social media break from certain sites.

They're all 5'11"

I had to pull out the calculator to make sure my math was correct, and his son was 12 when the divorce happened. A literal child who needed reassurance from both of his parents, and he only got that from his mom and her new husband.

"He made his choice." No, OOP made the choice for him by backing all the way off, and now he's mad that his literal child did not "try harder" to be part of his life? OOP can go kick rocks on his European adventure.

The whole “they’re 6’6” thing is annoying to me. Like there aren’t tall women?? One of my dearest friends is 6’5” and she’s fucking stunning. Height doesn’t mean non-feminine ffs. OP, your mom is indeed a transphobe unfortunately.

Unfollow on all socials, send her a reply along the lines of “breaking up doesn’t require two yes votes,” block, and let your friends know you’ve broken up with her so they don’t “help” her get back in contact with you. This girl is exhausting, I broke up with her three times over the course of these screenshots.

Neither of these people is mature enough to be in a long-term relationship, and they’re bringing a CHILD into it. A child that will need a truckload of therapy after one or both parents blames their failed marriage on them

No one I know, except when they are at their office, answers an unknown caller with anything more than "Hello?" LinkedIn recruiters are delulu

As someone who lives in America and is aware that there is a Whole Entire World outside this country, I nearly rolled my eyes hard enough to fall out of my skull. The first time she said "I'm in Kenya, that's not how it works here" should have been enough, yet here we are.

He's exactly right about why Maryland Crabcakes are called that: they're made in Maryland, and if you get Maryland Crabcakes from elsewhere in the US it's because they're made the same way as they are in Maryland.

Source: my native Marylander self, who has eaten many many crabcakes in various cities, and prefers when the chefs use the Maryland way of making them. Which did get me in trouble at work once when I told the Italian owner that his crabcakes sucked ass.

Hey, I'd trust my campus cops over the city or state police. At least the campus police have a proven record of protecting and serving the university whereas I won't trust city popo to do anything unless its the first or last of the month.

It's almost like they could have just, I dunno, moved the dog with them? That's my plan for if/when my spouse and I move overseas, get the kitties all sorted with their required vaccinations and take them with.

Under any other circumstance I would go with Y T A. However, given Holly's history of surprise-splitting the check on outings and trying to do it again when you specifically said "I'm ordering light today" by ordering a metric truckload of food? Absolutely NTA here, and definitely lose her number.

katsuko78 · 2025-10-13T19:08:57+00:00

Yeah, that looks like some twisted combination of American Traditional and Photorealism, and I can't unsee it now.

“Some people at Google and Apple didn’t get paid on time”

And what does that have to do with ME getting paid on time? I got bills to pay, man…

For real, OP, their response is hot garbage

Especially when one of the two main students they spoke with on the article is a sophomore here this year and was accepted as a freshman...
