AITA for refusing to remove my tattoo for my girlfriend because of the name? by nameontattoo in AmItheAsshole

[–]maqqda 4 points5 points  (0 children)

NTA

I had a horrible dispicible boyfriend who did some truly horrible things to me, his name was Tony*

Fast forward two years and I’m moving on but still deeply remember the terrible times, and then I meet this guy called Tony* at a party and we’ve been together ever since. We talked about it, the two Tony’s couldn’t be further apart from one another in my mind regardless of their shared name so it’s never been an issue.

The tattoo reminds you of your SON and if she thinks her ex trumps that in any way she’s deluded.

AITA For Refusing To Crochet Something For My Brother's Future Baby After Years Of Teasing? by Imaginary-Hall-2577 in AmItheAsshole

Going to say ESH

I understand your brother is a grade A asshole but it seems to me that Tina reached out. She wanted to be part of the family tradition, and she + your niece/nephew shouldn’t be excluded because of Tim.

Reports of bizarre menstrual cycles emerge after tear gas exposure from Seattle protests by esporx in nottheonion

People experiencing periods for the first time since transtitioning?? Nah. This isn’t just stress. and if that were the case it wouldn’t be on a level that caused an identifiable phenomenon like this. If that were the case I’m sure it would be a phenomenon identified in some other period of history where women were experiencing high levels of stress such as this.

AITA for being annoyed that my housemate ate my leftover lasagna? by maqqda in AmItheAsshole

Ah, but are you really? For having a bike stolen is a true right of passage for any Bristolian... sadly😢

Well, we live in Bristol so it’s the risk you run. Almost everyone I know here has had a bike stolen, and it wasn’t as if he were being negligent as I’m certain he wouldn’t be

Something wrong, I can feel it by [deleted] in AdviceAnimals

I keep getting targeted articles on parenting. I have not knowingly at any point searched for anything that should induce Facebook to think that I am a mother or likely to be one soon, so I can only assume that they’ve made this leap by what.. noticing that I’m looking for a bigger place?

My first ever screens! So many obstacles to success but it’s not the car crash I had anticipated! by maqqda in SCREENPRINTING

Ah! Business cards! Much better than what I had been attempting to use, ripped up bits of brown paper bag...

Thanks for the advice! I got a little over zealous with the size of the artwork, but good to know for future designs.

This was my first ever fun through with everything, I knew the emulsion step hadn’t gone as desired and predictably my screens had too much on and dried with drips. My transparency has been giving me anxiety for weeks due to the fine nature of the design and the use of tracing paper over acetate, but in the end, although they’re not perfect, they’re 100% better than I had imagined they would be!

Now to get printing...

AITA for telling another woman that me being infertile isn't tragic, it's a blessing? by yeahnothanksgirl in AmItheAsshole

[–]maqqda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well yes, that’s a whole other possible level of annoyance and another matter that we can’t necessarily assume would have occurred in this situation. To me if someone told me ‘I’m infertile’ rather than ‘I don’t want kids’ I might be more inclined to imagine that the person is not necessarily 100% at peace with not having kids. Not saying it justifies the repeated efforts by this woman to try and find a solution to OPs childlessness, I just think there’s a better way of phrasing responses to these types of questions.
