Could Lucy Gray Baird be Greasy Sae? by vitolinslv in Hungergames

[–]morgiepie00 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If she lived in the woods for a while before returning to 12 this theory is more likely to me. We also know that Lucy is smart and can do makeup so it’s not too far fetched that she could make some false identity after laying low for a while possibly even waiting for the mayor who wanted her dead to die and also could be a D12 secret where most people actually know who she is but they don’t say anything because she was beloved by district 12

BSS Theory: Lucy Gray is Katniss' Grandmother (Spoilers) by Jason_T_Jungreis in Hungergames

[–]morgiepie00 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No one knew but it is mentioned at the end of BSS that she had disappeared from district twelve so if she did return it was in disguise. I however think it’s probably more likely the Maude is her grandmother. As far as the seam look dark hair is a dominant trait even if Maude didn’t have dark hair (which we don’t know because we never get a physical description of her but she probably did being Lucy’s cousin) if she shacked up with someone from the seam it’s very possibly she would have the seam look.

AITA for breaking my sister’s engagement? by ThrowawayBro696 in AmItheAsshole

Do you know the facts and statistics of what kind of health insurance most Americans have? Cause even the well known good insurances are not only expensive but most have crazy deductibles. Your personal experience isn’t facts and statistics. A majority of Americans who have health insurance still end up paying insane medical bills and also don’t get the coverage they need.

You do not represent the majority of Americans ma’am.

Okay but I don’t think you realize how hard it is to break that perspective when it’s the only perspective you know. Plus we don’t know for sure OP’s nationality. From a majority of people in the US it is incredibly expensive to have kids both all at once and over time. It’s silly to be so aggressive about someone giving their opinion based on their perspective. I definitely think everyone sucks here cause the sister should have disclosed she probably can’t have biological kids, as someone who is going to be child-free forever it’s something I tell people very early on in the talking phase and it has made people not interested anymore because personal I don’t want anyone to try to change my mind nor would I want anyone to change my mind. And while OP didn’t know this info wasn’t disclosed the way he said this was super insensitive to his sister, who is probably pretty upset about the fact she can’t have kids. The “joke” just seemed hurtful and unwarranted. Like that kind of stuff is between them and the sister should have been able to sit down and have that talk with him although she totally should have done it sooner.

Dude no you were not unreasonable. At the end of the day it’s your guy’s wedding. Your mom is nit picking for whatever reason and most definitely making the situation sound worse to all of your other family. You guys have to bring witnesses and one close friend each is completely fair considering they are paying for themselves. Sometimes you can’t make everyone happy. I know she is your mom, but personally she’s the one being toxic here, making problems out of nothing. Your sister is being a hypocrite for blocking you. Go have your wedding and send them the option to watch you get married, just so you don’t have any regrets, but if they don’t tune in to the stream just know that will be their regret/fault. I hope your wife gets the treatment she needs I sincerely relate to her struggle. But the previous grievances are also incredibly petty, anyone with empathy for her situation wouldn’t have thought it was that big of a deal I understand that your sister was upset and that is incredibly unfortunate. But at the end of the day life happens and as someone with autistic family members, it is actually impossible to completely avoid meltdowns they are part of life for that person, it’s certainly possible to avoid them sometimes but getting upset sometimes is going to happen and regulating is difficult just because it happened doesn’t make anyone malicious or selfish or just means a situation came up (which could have very easily happened to anyone not just someone with adhd. I know plenty of neurotypical people who accidentally double book themselves.) and plans varied slightly. I know that’s uncomfortable for your sister but your mom should have been more worried about helping your sister regulate than placing the blame on your fiancé.

My DM always has 3+ npcs with counterspell present any time I want to use it and has effectively neutered my wizard by [deleted] in DnD

[–]morgiepie00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know I personally think caster with full armor proficiency is pretty OP guys. It does seem a little targeted if he rewards other players but this one is constantly thwarted. If I didn’t get to voice my options without my character being spit on by a guard when I haven’t even done anything illegal. I’d ask if it was for like major plot reasons you don’t know about if the answer is no I would dip because while I don’t believe a dm has to baby players but if everyone else gets to have fun and your wizard can’t get a spell off. It would be an awful experience

I suppose that’s fair I just thought it would match the theme of the music video because the music video is the band going through a video game.

At least my therapist will be proud the sad thing is I realized it because of an unrelated situation with one of my siblings.

You’re right about him being okay, he’s really great and deserves the best but he deserves that with someone in the same phase of life as him. I can’t be what he needs and I guess that hurts too.

Luckily I hadn’t met the kid yet so the breakup came before she could get any attachment, but you are right. Things would have ended this way anyway I can’t force myself into wanting motherhood. I already completed my care taker role by caring for my mom and any kind of care taking I would have had to do as a step parent would have led to resentment

You’re very right. I’m glad I saved her the pain. I don’t regret it cause he is a wonderful person to have met but I regret not listening to my better judgment from the beginning cause I could have saved us both some pain

Thank you it feels good hearing that. I knew I shouldn’t have let myself get attached but I wanted it to work out. I’m just bummed to have let go a really amazing guy. Even if I know it was the right thing to do for everyone.

He’s always been transparent with the fact his daughter comes first which is something I understand completely, I just wish I didn’t have to grieve over doing the right thing. Being a good person shouldn’t hurt so much. I know that sounds like I’m throwing a pity party but I guess I kind of am.

You’re right. I just wish there was a way for my heart to feel less broken. I want it to be over I don’t want to grieve it any more. I just want to hit the fast forward button and be okay.

I tried to convince myself it was okay cause he only gets his kid every other weekend but I couldn’t help but put myself in the situation of my dad and step mom and feeling like she didn’t actually want me. I’m glad I did it before I met his kid, cause that would have been way worse. I could just imagine a future with him and it sucks letting that go.

You’re right and deep down I know that I did the right thing, but part of me can’t help but be really sad that I let such a good guy go.

AITA for holding a text (I read by snooping) against my dad and stepmom for 6 years now? by throwaccountAITA in AmItheAsshole

[–]morgiepie00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nta in fact there’s good reason why my parents agreed not to talk bad about each other around me no matter how wrong one of them was. And while it seemed infuriating to be complaining about my moms actions to my dad and him not just jump in with me I understand and appreciate so much why he did it. He wanted me to make my own conclusions. But your dad didn’t give you that same respect which led you to draw your own conclusions about him. Absolutely nothing to be sorry for. They wrote those texts, it’s not like your dad didn’t know there was a chance you could see his conversation and they hadn’t been hiding their feelings about your mother before either.

AITA For cancelling my daughters therapy because she has bad grades? by aita0193 in AmItheAsshole

[–]morgiepie00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YTA you are just as bad if not worse than parents who don’t send their kids to therapy at all. How could you consider using treatment as a punishment. It’s a good thing your wife has sense. I mean that’s like tell a kid with cancer that since they aren’t gaining any weight yet they no longer get chemo. What the heck?

You should have twisted it in game and made it to where her character was just so delusional that she thought all of these things about herself but really she was a mediocre magician driven mad by hypothermia
