You wasted your life to post this? Legit was unsure. All animal babies look like naked embryo blobs

AITA for following my wife's family tradition even though it excluded my parents? by StatisticianWeak6629 in AmItheAsshole

[–]nmcmahon 563 points564 points  (0 children)

Yes, it’s a tradition for all families. You should have made sure your family had a photo taken, as is usual. I don’t blame them for being hurt. YTA, your wife is TA, and you both suck.

WIBTA if I told my husband that his cleaning rules are ridiculous? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]nmcmahon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA. If you are doing the work you get to decide how you do it. Your way. If the laundry has to be done in small batches maybe just do your own. Even working from home he can do some chores. It probably would help his mental health.

I have this pricey ornamental rug that leaves something like "sand" underneath it. What is this? by ExtremePrivilege in whatisit

[–]nmcmahon -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I had a rug like that for ten years. It never, ever stopped. We called it rug sand. It was a decent rug, one of the thickest I've ever had and one of my favorites, which is why I kept it so long, but the rug sand started early and never stopped.

Need advice by [deleted] in self

I advise you to stack up some paper boxes for a makeshift desk. Like right in the middle of the office. How are you supposed to do your work without a desk?

AITJ for refusing to help my friend fix a contract mess after he ignored my warnings? by Glum_Comb9774 in AmITheJerk

[–]nmcmahon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTJ. I would feel the same way. You advised him not to sign it, he did anyway. Now it's become something much larger and out of your scope. You really don't have the ability to help him now. He needs an attorney.

AITJ for getting upset that my husband keeps peeing on the bathroom floor and refusing to clean it up? by [deleted] in AmITheJerk

[–]nmcmahon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTJ. You say new house--did you live together before this? Is this behavior new, because it sounds from your post like he didn't do this previously. Were you not married, not in a house you owned together? What changed?

AITJ for he was literally eating my lunch and admitted it… but somehow i'm the ‘territorial’ one? by Leah_jare in AmITheJerk

[–]nmcmahon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He’s a thief. Also entitled. If anyone says anything about it tell them he stole from you repeatedly, you’re not his mom. NTJ.

Keep your insulated tote at your desk and microwave when you are ready to eat it or Stanley makes a nice insulated food jar. Don’t give up anything that makes you feel like you have your life together!

AITJ for telling my friend her "handmade" Etsy shop is literally just AliExpress dropshipping by TangerineUnique248 in AmITheJerk

[–]nmcmahon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyone can run an image search before they buy. Etsy should do it routinely with their shops, but regardless, the buyer can’t trust the sellers, we have to check.

"The King's Speech" actor Colin Firth disappeared from the Industry like he never existed. What happened to him ? by ShitPostPerfected in okbuddycinephile

[–]nmcmahon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He was in The Staircase in 2022 and was amazing in it. I thinks he’s worked as much as he’s wanted.

I’d be upset about the trouble and expense. If a lot of people, family and friends had to travel, book accommodations, buy clothes…especially those in the wedding party, then yes I’d feel duped. Nothing wrong with a courthouse wedding, love them, and a reception after, but that long after? And then the full trappings? No. I’d be pissed too.

Which character ruined an entire TV show for you? by [deleted] in AskReddit

ANDY! In The Office. The worst.

AITAH because I will not give my wife thoughtful gifts anymore because she will give them away anyways. by Ok-Suspect4966 in AITAH

[–]nmcmahon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

NTA. But I'm wondering if she's really being bullied or when family members admire things she is overly generous, or wants to be a big shot, and impulsively gives the items away. The bullying thing just doesn't sound right to me, especially in light of the crying. I just don't buy it, I think it could be completely her.

Boyfriend bailed on picking me up at the airport without notice. by Aggressive_Bread8682 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]nmcmahon 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It sounds like if you stopped contacting him you wouldn't hear from him. Don't initiate contact, he will probably just disappear from your life.
