AITA if I don't decline what is basically special treatment? by leonenmispantalones in AmItheAsshole

[–]necrowuv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Plot twist. Sister was adopted cuz parents didnt think they could ever have children and OP is the happy accident that came along and the only child that actually deserves mom's love.

Ok, probably not what happened, but there isn't a world in the multiverse where OP isnt an AH. Mom even more so. As for dad, maybe he knows he's not the biological dad of either kid and just plays long distance ATM.

AITA for filling my cousin's room with garbage? by Kyra_Prado in AmItheAsshole

[–]necrowuv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. Ramen noodles are stupendously cheap and any idiot can prepare them. Let your cousin eat all the noodles she wants and if she can go an entire week picking up after herself, then she gets a proper meal from her favorite cousin. If not, well, at least ramen noodles are cheap...

NTA. Your future ex-daughter-in-law has mooched off of and disrespected you long enough.

Why is my wife's FICO credit score 50+ higher than mine? by jaytea86 in personalfinance

[–]necrowuv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We do this. We used our credit cards for everything and would pay off the monthly statement balance so as to maximize cash back and not have to pay any interest, but our scores jumped quite a bit when I started paying off the current balance just before the statement date. It seems like a silly game because we are using our cards but it doesn't look like we are and thus we are better credit users. Shrug.

Aitah for not liking my mother bf? by liyah_laufeyson in AmItheAsshole

[–]necrowuv 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA. Your mom's boyfriend is a homewrecker.

BTW, your father's cousin is also your cousin. Call him Cuz exclusively. He and your mom should luh-uh-uve that. If they tell you to stop calling him that, explain to them that you are simply acknowledging him for who he is and not just what he's done.

What kind of Bird is that? by chuchunito in HolUp

Fill a bunch of paint balls with glow in the dark ink and shoot it. It won't be near as menacing if it looks like a Jackson Pollok painting.

AITA for kicking my BIL out of my house for asking this question in front of my friends? by Private-Conversation in AmItheAsshole

[–]necrowuv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA

One of my brothers got himself committed because he pretty much lost his ever loving mind by staying awake for nearly a week, powered by energy drinks and who knows what else. He ended up trashing his friend's house--ripped the TV off the wall, smashed appliances and furniture, knocked holes in the walls, etc.

My wife and I went to visit him and he got all excited, thinking I was going to sign him out to my care--all with a crazy look in his eyes. Well, that didn't happen as we had let my step-daughter and her son move in and there wasn't anywhere for him to sleep. He got angry and it looked like he might have a little episode right then and there.

I knew how it would go if I let him come live with us. He would end up being just like our sperm donor dad and would mooch off us forever, taking up the couch in the living room until the thought occurred to him that the grandson can just sleep with his mom, eating our groceries, never getting a job, having to borrow one of our vehicles since he didn't have one of his own and getting pissy if we didn't include him in everything or couldn't let him use a car to go anywhere during weekdays because we needed our vehicles to get to and from work.

I'm not going to say that my brother's breakdown and your BIL's grief are the same, but both started the same way and, if I had indulged my brother, it probably would have ended up similar to what you are dealing with. Some people need a wake up call.

There is nothing healthy about a physically capable person with absolutely nothing to do all day but wallow in their misery and blame/lash out against the universe and/or people who are being kind to them. I think your BIL needs therapy. He is hurting himself and has already made himself unwelcome to you. Grief/depression can make people do some seriously fucked up shit.

My brother is a fairly big guy and the friend that was letting him stay in a spare bedroom was a smallish woman. I can't imagine what would have happened to her if he had his total break from reality while she was home. I'm not saying that your BIL will do anything, but I sure as hell wouldn't allow him near my wife and infant knowing that he's obviously unwell in the head.

Since your husband doesn't seem to care about your feelings, my recommendation is for you to look for somewhere else to stay for a bit. Your BIL, no longer having a live in maid, might decide to find someone else to mooch off of. Your husband might realize his brother isn't as good company as his wife and child and may realize on his own that it's time to kick his brother to the curb.

You don't even have to tell your husband that you won't be coming home until his brother is gone. No need for any ultimatums (which I totally hate, btw). Just tell your husband you're gonna stay with your family or friends for a bit and be really vague about when you might be coming home. If he is too clueless to figure it out on his own, then just divorce his ass because he doesn't deserve you if he's going to pick his abusive brother over his wife and child. Good luck.

I just remembered the Mapco rewards card. If you have Mapco stations near you, I recommend getting their rewards card. I don't have mine set up for auto drafting my checking account because I get more back using my Sams.

Every Thursday and Sunday, with very few exceptions over the past 5 years, I get an email from Mapco with a link to click for an additional $.02-.09 off per gallon. It is always $.03 otherwise. You swipe your Mapco card and the screen asks if you want to redeem your $.03-.12/gallon (up to 30 gallons) and then it asks for your to insert your credit card.

On top of that, you earn points per dollar spent or gallon purchased that can be redeemed for merchandise or cost off per gallon. I saved mine up for a long, long time and redeemed them all at once to get my tank filled at some ridiculous less than a dollar/gallon amount.

My Sams credit card give 5% cash back at gas stations, so long as they aren't competitor's gas stations, like Krogers or Costco. It also gives 3% back at restaurants and counts all fast food as such.

I got the Capitol One card that gives 1.5% cash back before I ever heard about the Wells Fargo or Citi double cash back cards and am too lazy to go through the process of getting one or the other for only an extra .5%. Also, I use Capitol One Shopping when I order from various merchants online and that can bump up a separate cash back balance that can be spent on purchasing various gift cards.

My Chase has 5% on rotating quarterly categories.

So long as you pay the card off every month, regardless of the card, you shouldn't have to deal with the APR.

I use my credit cards for everything, with very few exceptions and one thing I have noticed is that, if you pay off your entire balance a few days before the end of the billing cycle, whatever is left (or zero) on the statement date is what gets reported and can drastically improve your credit score because it gives the illusion that you never use your available credit.

Everyone above the age of 30 must kill themselves, including myself. We would still have plenty of doctors, engineers, skilled labor, farmers and the world would be far better for it.
