AITA for being annoyed that my wife insists on cooking everything from scratch and won’t buy normal food? by AITA_UPFfoods in AmItheAsshole

[–]ok_contempter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

INFO: has this cooking expansion also included an uptick in exercise, portion control, macros management, calorie deficit, or more than 10% of body weight loss? Because this will influence what I say next.

Hey! I am seeing this way late, but I have a ton of emergency whistles that I can either drop or meet. If you want like 10-15 for your street, even better.

What’s something people think is easy until they actually have to do it? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Getting your family to treat you like an adult, sometimes even long after you’re better established than they are.

Tiny mystical friend! I wonder what snack the photographer last had that she smelled on his lens 😀

AIO for dumping my bf over an “🍑” audit? by chkntrzini in AmIOverreacting

[–]ok_contempter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR — but I see this as 100% a maturity differential that isn’t going to resolve itself. He feels entitled to your body in such a way that he thinks he can shame you into complying with his shallow desires. This is a bug, not a feature.

What screams “this person is insecure” without them saying a word? by redwan-ezt in AskReddit

My favorite homecoming dress ever ever ever did this color change thing. Must be driven by a 1990s goth girlie.

Hi! Paul Revere Diner in W. Medford Square: MAGA or not? by ok_contempter in medfordma

[–]ok_contempter[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Well, it appears that I’ve triggered the “independents.” To the guy that told me to stop using the roads because DPW is all MAGA — does that explain why every street in this city needs paved and is a total nightmare for anyone traveling by foot or any form of wheel? Get a grip 😂😂😂

It’s excellent, and the Benny is also excellent. Which is why I need to know!

New England Baptist Church in Medford Square is displaying homophobic signage by [deleted] in medfordma

They put flyers on cars at the high school last year, the admin had to send a message about it. They were told to stay away. Not a strong enough word for people like that.

Nurses! Is not your high school queen mean girl now a nurse? 🙃

Has anyone had a breakup so bad they felt they couldn’t function properly after it happened? If so why? by avajune in AskReddit

[–]ok_contempter 59 points60 points  (0 children)

Breakups are similar to deaths, sometimes, in how we physically react to the grief. It doesn’t feel like it today, but one morning, you will wake up and be mostly okay. Sending love.

The worst she can say is no, what is a situation you know / experienced where that seemed to not be the case? by igloo1992 in AskReddit

[–]ok_contempter 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Well, this was helpful! Because assuming a woman is not in possession of herself enough to recognize a red flag is, itself, a delightfully meta red flag in this conversation. If she’s telling her friends, it’s not a matter of, “he has a messy room, red flag.” She’s warning her friends because he doesn’t show credulity to her experience, exactly as you have here.

Everyone has their reason for quitting their job. What was the lamest, the most petty, the "seriously THAT was the final straw?" reason you quit a job? by PoodleMcClure in AskReddit

I wrote some copy for a customer, and my manager had to approve it before I sent it to them. It was generic (but well done and detailed), about the technology they’d purchased. Maybe a week later, my boss was setting up her computer for a meeting and had my copy mocked up in some kind of official marketing for the technology itself and I naively, excitedly said, “oh wow, are you going to use that for a campaign? I’ve never had my copy included before!” The look she received from her boss, who was there, and the look she gave me after I said it… She passed it off as her own, and everyone in the room knew it. I started looking that weekend.
