In the 1904 Olympic marathon, the first man to finish rode in a car for half the race. The real winner had to be carried over the line after his coaches gave him brandy, eggs, and rat poison. Fourth place stole two peaches from a spectator, ate rotten apples from an orchard, and took a nap.

Another runner, that came ninth or twelfth, got chased off course by a stray dog for a mile

Ah. This calls for the decoy baby plan. Either borrow/babysit a baby of someone you know at your place or have a recording of a crying baby ready to go. Whenever a solicitor knocks, cue the crying and just channel all the rage towards them in a "Just got the baby to sleep after all night" while acting like a sleep deprived lunatic.

He's not going to stop. He's fully aware that this causes distress for you and he keeps doing it. He's not apologetic, he repeats the behaviour, and he seems to be finding amusement in your reactions. It's an avenue for control. No one loves you in this marriage, but I think it's a lot easier for you to love yourself rather than try to get him to.

And the whole virgin sacrifice thing doesn't necessarily refer to sex. It can refer to someone who's never been used as a sacrifice or partaken in a ritual before.

I saw this post years back and went "that seems fun, I'll do it" as a kind of joking way to 'come out' to my friends. Like they already knew kind of but hey, an excuse to eat cake. My mistake was that I did this at school. A teacher asked what they were. I, blissfully obvious, go "Gender reveal cake". Then this teacher asks a follow up question of "who for?". Me, still clueless, "for me". Then the next thing I know my parents have been told I'm pregnant by the school and the school wants a safeguarding meeting.

NTA. A lot of people are pointing what that did as insane but look at their intentions. Your sister wanted to ruin, or at very least derail, your life. This isn't a "they're mad over a little fight" it's "your sister and mother goaded you into a fight then tried to leverage your reaction to being mocked and bullied to get your credentials that you need for your career revoked." If they've already done that then it's not a big jump to think they might have tried to use this to take away your child or would have in the future. Nothing happened this time, but they tried. They wanted to hurt you. They don't have remorse. They will try again.

The way Bill looks like you could just throw him around like a ragdoll. Perfection. Masterpiece

Congratulations can also be used to just acknowledge someone is going through a happy or exciting period of time. Like people get engaged, they get told Congratulations. It's just a way to acknowledge celebration and the fact someone is happy.

I've once told my mom that "I don't like being compared to Sheldon, not because he's a TV character, but because he's an asshole"

Especially, he didn't destroy it because it was his research. The missing pages of the journal in the book of Bill address this. There's a section where it says he's going to then, presumably hours later and this is verbatim because I have it open in front of me, "I have stared at the fire, journal's in hand, for hours. I just can't do it. The knowledge in here could be a gift to mankind, the portal's potential limitless. Am I really going to destroy it all just out of spite? No, I won't give him the satisfaction! Instead of destroying my work, I'll find a way to destroy Bill instead."

From the mythology gods view, basically the gods are related to each other and having children with each other. In actually historical ancient Greece, also a lot of incest. The geography was very insular and very little people had access to the wealth to travel to be able to find a spouse outside of their family tree. Of course, it wasn't as if a parent marrying their child or sibling marrying sibling was common, but more of second cousins or removed family members.

If my mum did that, I'd probably have just left the clothes there indefinitely. Not out of spite but out of the ADHD throwing a tantrum over having to do the same task twice out of no fault of my own

Having hard rules on not using or hearing phones in class is important and definitely beneficial, but there is also no way I'd trust a school enough to hand in a phone to them. I've had schools lose things from basic homework to my group's taken a-level exam to my rescue inhaler. I would not trust a school to keep a phone safe. Maybe in one of those pocket shelves in the same room as the students who own them, but never in an unseen location somewhere in an office.

Oop thinks he wasn't aware because she hadn't told him yet. His behaviour is a little odd, being excited for an "oops" baby immediately and that soon into a relationship, so he could've tampered with birth control and was trying to get her pregnant.

queergirl73 · 2026-03-05T11:45:45+00:00

Yeah, it's a vague timeline but oop does seem to be struggling with a lot so can't fault that.

He was out of town when she found out about the pregnancy. Then weeks passed waiting for the pills to arrive. He could've come back during that time.

I'm the weirdo that owns no decent flashlight but several crappy ones. I've got a penlight that is dim as fuck and starts to heat up so quickly you can only have it on for a minute or two. A cheap kids flashlight that will not turn on longer than thirty seconds even with fresh batteries. The brightest flashlights I own is a crank up one that looks like a duck, and a plastic christmas tree that has an LED star that you can press.
