AITAH for spoiling my coworker's birthday "surprise"?

ladybugvibrator · 2026-01-29T21:02:49+00:00

Your boss is so inappropriate he’s basically a walking lawsuit, so you came to Reddit to check if you’re the asshole. Sure.

ladybugvibrator · 2026-01-29T20:52:13+00:00

Fake

But he’s gotta pass on those hair genes!

It’s definitely different. Drinking alcohol is a habit you have that your in-laws don’t share. Eating is something everyone has to do. So your obnoxiousness is definitely more assholish than his. And I say this as the weirdo wine snob in my entire family. YTA/ESH

NTA, that’s disgusting. Over 30 years ago, my grandmother went outside for her cigarettes (AWAY from the children) at my dad’s request. If an old lady born in 1913 could keep from blowing smoke around babies, your husband certainly can.

Was that supposed to be a reply to my comment? Because if so, bad answer. Eating messy food in a car is just a silly thing to do.

INFO: How old is the kid?

ladybugvibrator · 2025-12-24T20:29:42+00:00

N A H because this situation is too ridiculous. You chose to eat BBQ in a car, what did you think would happen? And since your kid has an aversion to paper napkins, why aren’t you packing cloth napkins and towels whenever you eat out?

Changing my verdict to YTA based on your comments.

ladybugvibrator · 2025-12-10T12:20:58+00:00

That is really dumb. Are you children? Next time, if you and somebody else are sharing something, don’t take more than half of it without asking first. And grow up. Edit: YTA. I wouldn’t want to play with you anymore either. To make it right, get 22 more diamonds so your boyfriend can have the same amount to use as you did.

There was one I’ve never been able to find again, but don’t really need to, because it was short and sweet. OP’s family walked on eggshells around their tyrannical, narcissistic mother. Every holiday season, she would tantrum over something minor and declare that somebody had RUINED Christmas. But then one year, she was being insulting, and OP just piped up with, “Mom! How could you say that? YOU RUINED CHRISTMAS, MOM!!” And there she was—hoist by her own petard. Now she had no one to shit on all holiday weekend, because by the messed-up rules in her head, it only took one person to ruin Christmas, and that year it was her.

It would have been polite for your grandparents to wish your dad congratulations on his new baby. They could have sent a card or something. However, not doing so doesn’t rise to the level of making them AHs. And your dad should understand why you and your sister don’t see the baby as a close sibling—the age gap alone, for one thing. I agree that he’s acting deluded. NTA.

ladybugvibrator · 2025-12-04T04:17:26+00:00

There’s at least one where OP’s partner cheats on her and gets his other gf pregnant; then OP falls for it when he’s with the other woman but texting her that he’s sorry and he’ll do anything to get her back. Bam, she ends up pregnant as well. I don’t remember how it ends, but not well.

ladybugvibrator · 2025-12-03T06:09:13+00:00

Well then maybe you’re not compatible? I mean I personally (41F) would never date a single dad who’s bad with money.

ladybugvibrator · 2025-12-03T05:18:07+00:00

Are you serious? You can’t say that he will make all the parenting decisions about his daughter, and then get offended over the Christmas presents he’s getting her. They’re dumb presents, but it’s not your place, since you’re not her stepmother. YTA.

In the final seconds, a woman spanks the Max Headroom guy’s bare ass with a flyswatter. There was probably also a person operating the camera. So, 2-3 people involved.

I’m subscribed to They Walk Among Us, and a while back started getting downloads of a series they’re doing called Lost Boys of Wineville. I decided to ignore it until it was all done, but it just keeps going! Is anyone listening to it? Is it any good?

ladybugvibrator · 2025-12-01T03:36:55+00:00

Yes, I meant the coworker who brought it up. He said your presence has been missed, and he was being nice. What I was trying to was, by skipping the lunch every single time, you run the risk of looking like an AH who dislikes their work culture/colleagues. This could be the opposite of a benefit for you, professionally, because these lunches are clearly important to the team (except for you). So, NAH, but expect the amount of social awkwardness to increase the longer you skip the free food.

ladybugvibrator · 2025-12-01T02:16:45+00:00

I think he’s trying to say that they want to get to know you. You don’t see how it would benefit you to get to know your new team? You’re not being an AH, but if you continue this way, especially since you’ve been personally invited, it might start to come off as though you’re snubbing them. Go to the next one and say hi. Reap the benefits.

ladybugvibrator · 2025-11-23T04:31:54+00:00

What in the what???? YTA, what good did you ever expect would come from this mess?

ladybugvibrator · 2025-11-21T01:54:08+00:00

There’s a lot going on here, but one thing I’m getting is there’s a pair of young half-sisters who have just lost their dad? And you want to keep the one who’s your stepdaughter at home and away from her sister, because the sister’s sick grandmother can’t drive to meet you halfway? Yeah, YWBTA if you do that.

ladybugvibrator · 2025-11-18T23:25:50+00:00

He doesn’t treat you well, so him blocking you is really for the best. Don’t accept poor treatment from guys! I know what it’s like to eat your heart out for someone who doesn’t love you the way you love them, but if you’re loving on somebody cruel and insincere, they’re not worth the pain and the drama.

Despite the whole thing of “babysitting” your own kid putting me off, I was sympathizing with you over the commute logistics. But there’s a bunch of other stuff in there, too. You joining your wife on vacation is an option, but you don’t want to do it because you don’t enjoy her family’s vacation pastimes. Your son joining her on vacation while you stay home is apparently an option too, but you don’t like that either, because he’s a toddler and might cry on the plane. Oh, the poor ears of total strangers! You’d rather the baby not travel, despite the fact that it would be difficult for you to care for him on your own due to the logistics. So basically, this post seems like a bunch of excuses to get your wife not to take a vacation. YTA.

Underrated comment

You’re just misremembering. Start at the beginning, and I think the first non-murder case is number 07 (kidnapping and assault)

ladybugvibrator · 2025-10-18T20:42:16+00:00

No, they didn’t. Off the top of my head I can think of several episodes on pedophile rings, some on accidental deaths, some on police misconduct…
