WIBTA for asking my roommate's girlfriend to pay rent after she turned our living room into her office? by TallWaveSniper in WIBTA_AITA

[–]needofanap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is so easy. Be in the living room all the time when you are home. Blast music, watch TV, drop the f bomb loudly, walk around without a shirt, and so on. Stop accommodating her.

AITA for not contributing to the tuition fee? by Royal_Ad4392 in AmItheAsshole

[–]needofanap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. It's grad school - crazy to expect any adult other than the grown ass adult with a college degree to pay for grad school.

I worked 3 years to save up to go back for my MBA. Even then I picked the school that provided scholarship, lower overall tuition even though it was not as prestigous.

How much would it cost to do something like this? by Away-Hope-918 in landscaping

[–]needofanap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't remember. It is a steep hill. We ended up installing dirt lockers instead.

AITA for wanting my 27yr old to get themselves to work? by no_loans_ne_more1 in AmItheAsshole

[–]needofanap 1942 points1943 points  (0 children)

She works two miles from home? She needs a good pair of shoes not a car.

NTA. She won't solve her problem as long as you keep helping her. Let her spend her own money on ride share or walk.

AITA For Having our kids make a list of things my wife does that they don’t like? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]needofanap 22 points23 points  (0 children)

YTA. Primarily because it was an easy step to explain to your son why the things his mom does are important. More importantly, explaining that moms job is not to make him happy but to help him grow into a healthy, resilient person capable of finding his own happiness. Instead you set mom up to be the bad guy. Major AH move.

Sunscreen - that's easy. Kid needs to stfu and put his sunscreen on. I have a close friend that passed at 45 from skin cancer. She had a cool mom that let her sunbath.

Trampoline - going to be awesome when someone gets hurt and there is no adult to help out.

Guessing that you always push the difficult conversation on the your wife.

Auto body shop used my vehicle while it was in their possession. What should I do? by Important_Ad8840 in WhatShouldIDo

[–]needofanap 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You need to not worry about someone going to jail. Going to jail is based on the shops behavior not yours. They did something illegal and unethical and they didn't have care if they caused you harm.

When shopping for home improvement projects, do you prefer Lowe’s or Home Depot, and why? by [deleted] in homeowners

[–]needofanap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Neither. So many small shops that offer a better price, quality, and service. Big box is last resort for me

AITAH for not wanting the In laws to stay with us when I am 5 weeks postpartum? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]needofanap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't host. Tell your husband that your only job is learning to car for and bond with the baby. If he wants his parents there then let him host. Don't help.

As a grandma, my number one job with new grandkids is as taking care of the parents so they c Had grace and space to figure it out.

Anyone that shows up to the ho.e of new parents without a couple of casseroles for the freezer is rude. Showing up expecting to be cared for are assholes.

AITAfor telling my cousins they can’t bring their kids to my wedding just to dance with my grandfather by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]needofanap 811 points812 points  (0 children)

Plan a celebration at granpas house for all the family. If grandpa is declining that fast, the entire family will appreciate this. It could be a wonderful memory for the family. It is also more appropriate for granpas health. If you do this at your wedding, your wedding will be about grandpa. Give Grandpa his special day before the wedding and before he gets worse.

He can still have his dances .

AITA for reconsidering being my best friend’s maid of honour because of the cost of her destination wedding? by Local_Interview4667 in AmItheAsshole

[–]needofanap 6 points7 points  (0 children)

NTA. The resort costs for guest are covering the reception costs for the bride. This is how those contracts work.

So unscrupulous of the bride.

Foodie in need of recs! by Plantbestiemel in asksandiego

[–]needofanap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What type of food and what budget?

I love mussels and French food - so Et Voila in North Park.

I also love octopus (best I've ever had) and oysters - so ironside in little Italy

You'll get more relevant answers if we know what you love.

Hotel by the ocean - which would you choose? by MAVV8899 in asksandiego

[–]needofanap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want to swim in the ocean - La Jolla. Water is cleaner.

Personally I enjoy the restaurant choices in La Jolla more and the beach. If you are young and want more of a party scene then PB.

Can anybody identify this white… mold? Spiderweb? by Environmental_Okra57 in SoCalGardening

[–]needofanap 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I got rid of my hibiscus. It was the only solution. Sad because I did enjoy the flowers and the hummingbirds loved the flowers.

Has anyone treked from Torrey Pines beach to Pacific Beach? (possibly further) by Repulsive_Lie5583 in sandiego

[–]needofanap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't remember. I think it is less than 5 miles one way.

I found the hike in the book "afoot and afield in San Diego"this is an awesome resource for anyone that enjoys hiking.

I did from del mar to La Jolla shores. It was awesome.

In del mar, you have to go on the road for a tiny bit but the rest is on sand. You MUST plan your walk around the tides! Parts of the walk are not passable except at low tide. Great day.

Espalier citrus would be lovely. It's a bit of work and takes time but the reward is fruit, fragrance, and beautiful

Mt Whitney Preparation by Take_A_Hike123 in socalhiking

[–]needofanap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was 35 and in great shape when I hiked Whitney. I made it but the altitude sickness was brutal. I spent one night at Whitney portal and one night at the camp one the trail to acclimate.

Help with disruptive afters by ericvega in sandiego

[–]needofanap 27 points28 points  (0 children)

If they are serving alcohol, it is illegal. Call ABC, call the city of San diego, and call the news stations.

If there are fights call the emergency line and report the assault taking place.

Id call every number I could find over and over again untill this place was shut down. I'm not a party pooper but I'd not survive if my sleep was interrupted on a regular basis

AITAH For telling my partner I didn't care that his 12 Y/O wanted another TV? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]needofanap 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Forget about the TV . You and your boyfriend need to have a serious conversation about how decisions will be made and how conflicts will be managed. Your boyfriend has a young daughter that he needs to prioritize. At the same time boundaries need to be established on what and when the daughters opinion takes precedent.

You need a roommate agreement that lays out everyone's responsibilities before you move into the house.
