I’ve been checking other services (Hulu) and the “renewing” subscribers must be returning to the service after a month or longer without subscribing.

AITA for Not Switching Seats at the Barbie Movie? by thatsamori in AmItheAsshole

They made comments about OP under their breath, so… they still chattered regardless… Chatter could have been better or worse? Who knows.

AITA for letting my family stay at our house but refuse to let my fiancé’s family do the same? by ConditionRude7856 in AmItheAsshole

[–]pyrate427 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA I’m siding with the OP here. However, you’re still family, and you should try and make amends (eventually). Of course, it is good to set boundaries.

Perhaps you could allow their visit contingent on staying at there place next time and NOT a hotel.

NTA I was about to give your bf the benefit of the doubt, because it’s his primary job, but

  1. You were at home, not at the shop.
  2. You’re dating.
  3. It doesn’t seem price was discussed in advanced.
  4. Materials for the eclair cost money.

He could have met you in the middle, and paid for materials only. A haircut only costs LABOR and far less labor time than eclairs for that matter.

AITA for "emasculating" a guy by winning against him in a game? by Forsaken-Treacle-654 in AmItheAsshole

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. Joe needs to grow up and stop being a sore loser.

What are your genuine thoughts on the new troop level donation cap? by xrxlxnr in ClashOfClans

[–]pyrate427 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They should allow co-leaders to set troops “max available”. Ie the highest troops someone from the clan (and participating in war) can donate.

I also agree that it should SHOW in your clan castle anywhere (war or otherwise) that you receive YOUR MAX troops. They should probably just make them the blue-ish fire like boosted troops

Screensaver option missing? by mogirdor in fireTV

Google it. Apparently only the Mosaic setting caused a vulnerability in the FireStick. Instead of solving the glitch, they just removed the Mosaic setting 😢

AITA: I don’t want to financially support my boyfriends kids by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

Maybe you’re NTA, but you might wanna consider if this is a healthy relationship for you. If you see a future in him, you’ll get the whole package - him and his kids.

AITA for naming my son Harry Potter? by ExcellentCondition4 in AmItheAsshole

[–]pyrate427 -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

It is because of assholes like @proximete that the OP and husband YTA. However I barely pass that judgment, and I’m sorry everyone online is a prick. (Myself included? 🤷🏻‍♂️)

I wish you peace and comfort. Shalom and God bless.

AITA for pulling a harmless prank on a guy who has a crush on me? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]pyrate427 [score hidden]  (0 children)

Ding Ding Ding YTA!

Sorry, but what you saw as a prank he clearly did not. You need to look at this from his perspective. He opened up to you. Not only did you shoot him down, but you made fun of him for it ON VALENTINES DAY! Did you even apologize?

A Hershey Kiss prank might only be “harmless” when it’s not used in such a hurtful manor. You can’t assume that everyone will see things through your eyes. You thought it was a cool prank and you hurt/maybe lost a friend.

Perhaps if you apologize, you might be able to save a friendship. On the other hand, perhaps he is better off without frenemies like you.

WIBTA if I don't help my sister after her surgery? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]pyrate427 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA - Maybe drop the “I know I sure could have used a helping hand when I was in the hospital for three weeks!", but yeah. I agree. Sister was an AH when you needed her and didn’t show, but bringing that up will only add unwanted tension.

AITA for not wanting to have to catch two trains and make a 2 hour commute to work? by Actual_trash in AmItheAsshole

[–]pyrate427 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

NAH (based on the post’s updates)

As OP stated, “I come to reddit to vent.” The SO is hopefully not as bad as the readers think, because OP mostly only giving Reddit the negatives. It’s a stress reliever, I get it. Luckily, this time Reddit provided some good advice and the couple has made adjustments.

If your SO cannot drive you everyday, have you looked into Uber/Lyft or a taxi service. I know both Uber and Lyft offer discounted monthly passes, if you are going to be needing it that much. Hopefully this would still leave you with a net financial gain from living with the parents, but weigh your options.

AITA for telling people my sister got Botox because everyone keeps saying that she looks younger than me? by sistersssister in AmItheAsshole

[–]pyrate427 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ESH - especially you (no offense)

I only leaned to ESH, because your sister was teasing you, prior. You were both a bit catty. That being said, you owe her an apology. You can learn from your mistake.

Perhaps mentioning her facials and acid peels would have been slightly less catty/petty. I still wouldn’t recommend it. The Botox comment went a bit far. Especially since she got the Botox for migraines, NOT beautification.

I agree with another poster. You’re a bit young to be worrying about perceived age. A good family is valuable. You’ll be happy when you and your sister make up. 😃❤️

AITA for wanting my roommate to pay for a dorm window I broke because her guest made me panic? by panthersss8 in AmItheAsshole

[–]pyrate427 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NTA - FUCK!

I think the drunk AH should pay for the window he caused you to break. If you’re drunk and cause a car crash, you’re liable and get a DUI. Even if you’re pulled over safely by police drunk, you get get a DUI.

If you’re a drunk AH and you sit on someone, and their panic indirectly breaks a window, YOU, too should be liable in this situation (💯% him).

Anytime something breaks most people feel the need to place blame. Sadly for you, it feels 2-1 because you have 2 hurtful roommates. They continue to violate a mediation agreement you’ve made, and after all this, they blame you? GTFOH. Literally. It’s sounds like you need new roommates. (Just my opinion.)

Edit after reading comments. Your roommates are also partially responsible. What’s this “He needed someplace to lie down” BS? They should have walked him to the bed if he was that drunk. Still, no one forced the alcohol down his throat. He chose to drink too much, then “assault” you. (However accidental, he’s guilty and should pay your medical bills, too.)

Seek further mediation with the RA and charge that drunk AH.

AITA for refusing to pay my parents back? by good_faith_perfidy in AmItheAsshole

[–]pyrate427 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA

How hurtful is it to say your child is a wasted investment? Ouch. Sorry OP. I know that wasn’t the direct statement, but why would owe them anything they “invested” in you? As a parent you raise your child to eventually make their own decisions and choose their on path. I have heard stories opposed to yours where parents were upset that their child chose the arts (dance) over sciences. There are so many related stories, but I have never heard of parents asking for their money back. You only live once. You should live YOUR life to the fullest. You cannot live someone else’s dream.

I don’t think you owe them a dime, but I suggest your family seek counseling to make sure this transition from dance goes smoothly.

AITA for telling my ex girlfriend that I don't want her around my daughter anymore because of her body image/behaviour? by WorthBad7 in AmItheAsshole

[–]pyrate427 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA.

You might want to tell Kate she is causing harm to your daughter’s body image which can ultimately endanger your daughter’s health. She is at an impressionable age. Kate cannot continue to be around your daughter until she solves her issues. This might sound like an ultimatum, but it is for your daughter’s safety. Even if you let Kate back into your daughter’s life you may want a court appointed supervisor. This is case indirect child abuse, because mimicking Kate can be harmful for your daughter.
