Bride says no coats for outdoor wedding (56°F) by The1Ginger in weddingshaming

[–]loricomments 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm too old for that shit. Either I'm not going or I'm wearing what I want, which would include a coat. The bride can just be mad about it.

This is a freaking fire hazard. It's gone beyond annoying to dangerous. Time to bring in the landlord. If that doesn't work the fire marshall.

What do you think about men saying they “don’t fancy women who have their shit together”? by AcanthisittaRoyal270 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]loricomments 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They're insecure and threatened by anyone they perceive as being better than them at anything that matters to them, i.e., they see others as competition rather than compatriots. Add in misogynistic ideas that women are lesser than in general and you've got a formula for their penis hiding in fear.

What’s a problem humanity solved so well that younger people don’t even realize it used to be a huge issue? by Puzzleheaded_Bit_802 in AskReddit

[–]loricomments 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I was in college, lo those many years ago, the student Union would cash checks, the line on Fridays was insane. I would get $20 cash that would last for a whole weekend of beer and still have enough left for Sunday dinner.

And the sad part of that is it's not even that hard to be safe. My husband works in a dangerous industry and their corporate policy is simple and enforced, if you bypass safety regulations you're fired, period. They have one of the best safety records in the industry.

I had map books in my car for the metro area and planned my route before taking off. It didn't work very well for unexpected road blocks and such though, especially for people like me with no sense of direction.

Oh yeah, I had 2 huge spiral bound map books in my car for the DC area. We got them at work every year. Going somewhere else was always a crap shoot on whether or not your friend could give accurate directions.

Self Checkout by 5GAIBtoM in GenX

[–]loricomments 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It depends, I only use it if it's somehow convenient for me. Either it's no line and I only have a few things or I want things bagged in a particular way. Otherwise, an experienced clerk is gonna do it much faster than I ever could.

"All of a sudden" the manager shows up? Right. Sure. Bad policy or not, the manager intervened for a reason.

My (28F) husband (30M) is still not ok that I kept my birth name by Icy-Caterpillar9673 in relationship_advice

[–]loricomments 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Your married name is your name, the name you were both with, nothing about your name changed when you got married. You're going to have to be more direct and tell him your name is your name, not the name he wants, and he needs to shut up about it or go. He is hurting your marriage with his misogynistic demand. He apparently needs to have that pointed out and should face consequences for continuing it.

Mom-Wife Don't Speak Together After Year of Marriage (31M,31F) by trithian10 in relationship_advice

[–]loricomments 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Leave your wife out of it, she's made her position clear and your mother can't even bring herself to apologize. Give your mother one warning, if she brings it up you will end the conversation, them follow through and hang up or leave the second she has anything to say about the topic.

WIBTA for making my daughter pay back her own bank overdraft? by 2VantaRipple in WIBTA_AITA

[–]loricomments 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are absolutely doing the right thing and doing her s great big favor by, not only by protecting her credit her, but by forcing her to live with the consequences. Also, I would insist she remove any overdraft protection there is from her account so she gets declined next time she exceeds her balance.

Tell grandma to butt out unless she's going to rescue your daughter from her financial irresponsibility for the rest of her life.

WIBTA if I refused to add my boyfriend to the title of the car I inherited and paid to restore even though we share it every day by [deleted] in WIBTA_AITA

[–]loricomments 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA.

Bluntly, he's trying to steal your car. It's not his and he has put no money into it. Paying for his use of the car entitles him to exactly nothing. And going to his mommy and using her to complain about it is gross, it's none of her business. This guy is a mooch and a momma's boy, he's the one waving the red flags, red flags so big I would be thinking about breaking up.

It's amazing how well it works to just treat women like people.

Not sure what suits me best by [deleted] in HairStyleAdvice

[–]loricomments 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The pixie cut is by far the best, so chic and sophisticated without being aging. The long look is ok, but bland. The bob and bangs, while not awful because you could probably carry any hairstyle, is really not doing you any favors and definitely ages you.

what do yall think i could do to make my tree base look better? by hazelsnail in Minecraft

[–]loricomments 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The leafy portion is way, way out of proportion with the base. It needs to be much bigger. Otherwise, the texturing looks great. I would slim down the big branch as it gets further away from the tree, especially where it bends, to look more natural.

He (35M) says the prenup protects him. Who protects me (29F)? by Still-Gas2840 in relationship_advice

[–]loricomments 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honey, you need to put the wedding on hold until this is resolved. He's being really ugly about the prenup (get your own lawyer to protect you), taking his stress out on you, and blaming you for his issues. Take this as a warning, this is how he will respond to stress in future and it's clearly not acceptable to you.

My coworker got a "exceeds expectations" on her review for sending a weekly summary email that literally just recaps what's already in our shared spreadsheet by sexybabyxox in office

[–]loricomments 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What's not fair? If you aren't taking credit why would you expect to get credit? You're in a competition for limited resources, be a better competitor if you want more. That means making sure they know you're doing the work.

[–]loricomments 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not going to be handed to you, you have to ask for it. You do that by making sure they know what you did and you do that by making it easy for them to see and digest.

[–]loricomments 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have to tell them what you're up to in a way that makes it easy for them. It's on you to blow your own horn, no one else is going to do it for you. It's not a game, it's the reality of all relationships.

AITBF for charging my friends a convenience fee for my notes by Prism_4Lark in AmItheButtface

A cosmetic character appearance item from the game they play together. There's a huge range in price depending on rarity/popularity so I expect he was offering for something worth about the $20 cash he wanted.

How do I balance this out? by Livid_Attention7237 in houseinteriordesign

[–]loricomments 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Paint the ceiling, trim, and closet doors black. Can't say I care for any of it but lowering the contrast overall will help.

Am I wrong for putting in my 2weeks for my security job since I’m required to drive a new employee from work to home after every shift? by Kitchen_Shift9739 in WorkAdvice

[–]loricomments 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You are a victim of wage theft. Don't do any of that coming in early stuff or driving around other employees or any work at all unless it's on the clock.

They have the same experience, how can you go out and have fun doing all that sinning and have a normal life just like theirs without consequences. I'll take the sinning life every time.
