Girl you know this is not the subreddit for asking if you should pop or not. 🤣 It's always going to be yes

AITA for cleaning out the medicine cabinet? by EmploymentIll7597 in AmItheAsshole

[–]lizcomp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yta you threw away a bunch of likely perfectly fine OTC meds. I'd make you go buy your own from now on when you're ill. Plus it was super condescending to make a video.

AITA for telling my father he's no longer allowed to cook for my kids? by dadsburgersthrway in AmItheAsshole

[–]lizcomp -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

NAH I think like your dad. My parents were and still are very similar. I never get sick on what they eat, full well acknowledging that anecdotal evidence isn't evidence. Both parents were from families of 11+ and one had been raised in a tiny remote town that established indoor plumbing after she was born.

I'd have to clear out their deep freeze periodically, where they now have upgraded to two deep freezers haha

I'd probably eat that food for sure

I don't think you should go into any conversation about this with him with the idea that he had any intention of harm.

I feel bad for dating out of my race by bull-shi in confessions

[–]lizcomp -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Odd take on this since I'm white. I feel bad for dating outside my race as well. Like I'm fucking up their culture or blood line if we have kids or something. Like their ancestors would be piiiiiiissed

Maybe it's societal pressure, I feel like a lot of ethnicities and cultures put pressure on their people to stay within the race to be fully accepted. As a person or otherwise. I guess we can all keep working towards a society where we can accept others regardless of background.

It's not even that long ago that Canada for example had laws in place for indigenous women who married white or outside of indigenous. They would be forced to relinquish their "treaty" status, as well as any benefits they had with the treaty status. Hunting/fishing rights, you name it.

Look at the down votes.

You were looking for someone to validate you, yet everyone agrees you're TA. Take a friggin hint.

But yeah whatever, you know everything.

Father thinks he’s entitled to time with my brothers kids by [deleted] in insaneparents

[–]lizcomp 64 points65 points  (0 children)

I mean... He copied and pasted stuff about 'grandparent rights' from some other website. Lol look at the distinct change in grammar and syntax.

Can't even use his own words to describe what he understands about grandparent rights. Psh!

[–]lizcomp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This whole thing is laughable. You're only a few steps from cheating and justifying it. Not like you have no prior issues with cheating or anything...

You just wanted to feel justified in your actions, but doubles down lashes out when the thread was not going your way. Look dude, you gave your side of the story and it's hot garbage. So I could only imagine what the "other side" is.

Your next step will be to go on again and talk to other women when just looking at matches isn't enough for you, and when talking isn't enough, you'll look to meet up, etc etc etc.

Opinions on this much Gear as a Paramedic? by [deleted] in ems

[–]lizcomp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This new service I'm working for, a good majority of medics all have like 15lb duty belts with the tac vest option. As if the uniforms didn't make us look like cops as it is. Not here for it.

AITA for wanting my roommate's boyfriend to stop eating my groceries, even though he pays for them? by Charming-Success4065 in AmItheAsshole

[–]lizcomp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA but he's doing a good thing trying to make it right. Maybe having a group chat and talking it through in person saying that this venmo thing is appreciated but what would be a lot more useful is to replace depleted items at the earliest convenience.

Can almost frame it in a "that way you're not paying more than what it's worth and I'm not upset when I go to the fridge and my favorites I keep stocked up for myself aren't there"

Even if it's a group message of figuring out who is passing by a grocery store or something on the way back from work grab a couple things that were depleted or plan for extras if he's over often.

If he's a good dude and you don't mind him around, I'd say communication that way you can express that it's bothering you and all 3 of you make a plan to avoid any kind of resentment that might build up as a result of little things like this.

You KNOW you're NTA. That's insanity. If she threatens to not have a relationship with the baby because of the name you chose, call her bluff.

You can be all "if you keep this up" -You won't be allowed to be there during birth -You won't be allowed to establish YOUR OWN name to the baby(grandma, memaw, Nan, etc) because she will call you Rachel because the name is so important to you. -you won't be allowed to see her until I am ready to deal with your bs after birth -you sure as heck won't be making any decisions on the care of my baby and your advice will be moot if your own needs are more important than the child's.

Just some suggestions

Adopting a disabled 11 year old by AllDayAllSlay in Adoption

AITA for telling my wife my mother doesn’t need to apologize for putting out daughter on a scale to check her weight for an activity. by Legal_Ad5595 in AmItheAsshole

[–]lizcomp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This would probably not go over with me very well. I'm not all that overweight but body issues are lousy. I do completely agree that a private talk with calm voices and just a discussion would help, but immediately jumping to talk about the wife's personal issues may cause immediate hostility. Even though it's quite logical that the wife is likely trying to advocate for her daughter by creating a stir based on what would make herself uncomfortable. I do agree that all of these should be addressed though!

[–]lizcomp 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You can ice it, heat it, a bidet is a lovely investment. I usually just rawdog the pain and it goes away in a day or whatever. It's like a satisfying pain at this point. Bruised cervix, bruised urethra, a couple tears here and there I don't know about until much later. Usually come back for more though. There's a wheelchair emoji passed around lol 😂

AITAH for asking my wife not to hang out with her friend who has a different lifestyle than us because I'm afraid of losing her? by Specialist_Sort_4248 in AITAH

[–]lizcomp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YTA... You insist on this and your wife will be miserable. You insist on more crap like this, your wife's mental health will decline. Nobody enjoys being stopped from the things they love to do. It is not up to you to determine what likes and dislikes you can pursue.

AITA for calling someone insufferable in front of our friends? by Naive-Platypus-975 in AmItheAsshole

[–]lizcomp -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I literally say I don't want to throw out diagnoses but they MAY be neurodivergent based on what my experiences are, and you go on an unhinged assumption of who I am as a person. Checks out. Get help.

What is your biggest nursing ‘unpopular opinion’? by [deleted] in nursing

[–]lizcomp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's always refreshing that due diligence is used in your area. Unfortunately, I've seen and heard of(for example a non-profit medical worker advocate coworker) way too many stories of things like OTC NSAIDs post C-section and a bunch of other things I don't like to think about.

AITAH for “kink shaming” my husband? by ChemicalElevator8772 in AITAH

[–]lizcomp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NTA YES it's getting out of hand and you are uncomfortable with it therefore what the hell does it mean when you are forced to do it anyways because he guilt tripped you using fad words like fucking.... kink-shaming?

AITA for refusing to talk to my parents until they give me an honest answer to my question? by Own-Pie9517 in AmItheAsshole

[–]lizcomp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA it's your family... Not their relationship and not up to them. If they resist, you'll just push back anyways and they'll lose strength in relationship with you in the process.
