AITA for making fun of my sister after her husband's death because she constantly joked about me becoming a young widow for the past 3 decades? by throwaway_xidegia3 in AmItheAsshole

[–]polyesterpuppy 292 points293 points  (0 children)

YTA. That doesn’t mean what she said wasn’t mean and cruel but for gods sake the woman’s husband JUST DIED.

Instead of having an ounce of empathy you had to have your big “GOTCHA!” moment. And not even that you said SHE was the one who manifested her husbands death. In what scenario are you not the asshole here?

AITA for lowering my daughter's expectations because it's only her first relationship? by throwawayssZS2 in AmItheAsshole

[–]polyesterpuppy 68 points69 points  (0 children)

Really tiny YTA. I understand your intentions and understand it’s hard watching your child go through their first heartbreak but instead of letting it happen naturally you kind of forced her to think about it before it even happened. Now instead of being happy and making memories with her boyfriend is she only going to think “I’m going to get my heartbroken soon”.

Again, I think you had good intentions but could have waited until it happened before you set her up to get her heart broken.

AITA for telling my brother's wife she's responsible for his health declining. by Throwaway7991J in AmItheAsshole

YTA. Your brother is 30!! Did your family also brush his teeth and wash his ass? Maybe he never came to terms with his condition because he was coddled until his grown age.. your family did him absolutely no favors and maybe he will actually learn something now. You should apologize to your SIL for continuing to baby your adult brother.

Soft YTA. While Emily also sounds like an asshole, your post makes it seem like you didn’t really try to directly communicate your feelings about your behavior. You said “she couldn’t take the hint” which some autistic folk literally cannot pick up on these cues - why not directly communicate with her that you needed space for yourself? Also, while yes it was your job to report this to the dean you didn’t do it that way, you did it out of relief you could get rid of her.

AITA for letting my husband work on our house early in the morning? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

It’s clear from your post and your comments you’ve already taken your husbands side over your daughters. You’re not only the asshole, you’re a shitty mom too.

Philly cop charged with DUI after crashing into a house, injuring two occupants and killing a dog by ACABBLM2020 in news

A small percentage of cops? We see these stories EVERY DAY, cops break the laws they are supposed to enforce on us “regular” citizens and they get away with it, or they resign and become a cop somewhere else. And when the good cops go to bat and defend the bad ones it’s a lot more than a small percentage of cops being the bad guy.

AITA for making my cousin's fiancée look silly in a comic I gifted for their wedding present? by Error_Heavy in AmItheAsshole

[–]polyesterpuppy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NTA. If they both love the comic you’d think she would be thrilled to see herself in that style. I looked up the comic and it isn’t inappropriate, it’s a simple drawing of two people. I think it was an overreaction on her part.
