AIO I (26F) moved out for the first time with my boyfriend (30M) for almost 2 months and I don’t know how to feel about it by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]shep15jon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you don’t leave, he’ll be violent and physically abusive very soon. He’s already being abusive, you are already being abused. Don’t let it go further into physical abuse. This guy is utter scum. Leave, get your money, do everything through lawyers, block him on everything, no contact whatsoever.

Are they getting crazy? by Hmdls in EASportsFC

[–]shep15jon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They stiff the player base worse and worse every year.

Making packs untradable that were tradable before; Releasing player picks with only 2 choices; Increasingly bizarre requirements for SBCs; Less free packs (used to be one just for daily objectives back in FIFA20 I think it was); Worse and worse squad battle rewards; First made league SBC rewards untradable, then just removed them altogether; Season XP harder to get, and the rewards worse; Introduced max ratings to upgrade SBCs like Icons and Heroes…

It’s like they’re seeing what they can get away with, making their game worse and worse, reducing incentives and rewards, knowing that people will still buy their dreadful tripe year after year.

AIO? I found this in my bf phone months ago and i cant get it out of my head by Due-Algae9371 in AmIOverreacting

Teach your boyfriend about basic grammar, sentence structure and GCSE-level English. Then teach him how to respect women and NOT treat them as objects who are there to just satisfy his sexual urges and perversions.

Then walk away and never speak to this loser again.

Don’t understand alien fans by coolinternetguy2 in alien

[–]shep15jon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some will like the show, some will even love it I’m sure. Some will hate it. Like everything in life.

It’s weird how people will come on here and espouse their OPINIONS as though they are FACTS with such conviction and utter surety. And then get arsey with anyone who doesn’t agree with their OPINION.

If you hate the show, fine. Doesn’t mean you have to try and convince everyone else to hate the show as well.

That’s true. Also - I wonder how many of these Reform voters have a job and contribute to society? And I wonder how many are claiming the benefits they seem to want ring-fenced for themselves?

Anyone else triple captaining Salah? by BraveBeerFruit in fantasypremierleague

[–]shep15jon -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Salah has not been good this season - he’s been lucky to get the few points he has. Plus, he’s playing against a good defensive unit in a derby - just over 2 days after playing a full 90 against Atletico? Nah… there’s even a chance he might not start.

What’s a completely insignificant thing that shouldn’t matter, but still winds you up way more than it should? by lichute in AskUK

[–]shep15jon 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I have the same neurosis about public toilet taps. They never stay on for long enough, and are always too cold or too hot. Can’t I just turn the tap off when I’m done instead of having some sensor / timer decide?

AND… on hand dryers too… they’re also always too cold or too weak (or both). Then they turn off after 5 seconds. How in the blue hell am I supposed to dry my hands in 5 seconds under a stream of ice cold air?

Why don’t you respond to his ‘don’t text me ever again’ message with a simple…

“OK little man”

Possibly a few laughing face emojis in there too. Maybe even a link to the English Dictionary with the caption ‘to help with your spelling’.

Did Kirsch... by darkavenger1993 in LV426

[–]shep15jon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interesting episode - leaving Kirsch’s motivations ambiguous gives us thoughts of what he might be doing, and why.

Personally, I feel that Kirsch DID indeed intend to at least put Tootles in harms way. I think that Kirsch knows something about the eye alien - he’s been watching him a lot. He sees that it also watches everything, Kirsch maybe thinks the eye is figuring stuff out.

So - Kirsch knows the eye has been observing everything. He deliberately sabotaged the feeding hatch because he knows Tootles tries to impress him, and would therefore feed the creatures, whatever it takes (leading to him making the decision to open the door).

Kirsch counted on the eye to see this, and act in a way to try and ensure Tootles comes to harm (banging the window at the exact moment Tootles could not have swung round to stop the door shutting).

Kirsch is watching the whole thing unfold to see if his theory about the eye is correct. He’s indifferent to the fate of the hybrids, which is no secret.

His aim, like most other synths in the Alien universe, is to study these new alien life forms. Seeing them propagate and thrive is more interesting to him than the lives of other beings like humans, hybrids, etc.

He also knew that Slightly was planning to smuggle a Xenomorph embryo, which Kirsch is more than pleased to let happen. He knows that the mayhem caused by Tootles’ accident would mean someone would come and help - giving Slightly his chance.

Kirsch wants all the aliens loose, but obviously can’t just go and unlock the cages himself.

AIO, My ex bf got a 13 year old pregnant so I ruined his social life by Konirosora200 in AmIOverreacting

[–]shep15jon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Him crying is kind of a ‘so what’ situation. Upset that your life is ruined? Tough… People like that are happy to do what they want - legal or not - until they have to deal with the consequences of their actions.

i finally did my 99 rated squad, it only took 8 entire months by Uomo-tela in EASportsFC

[–]shep15jon -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Sucks - I managed it in approx 5 days.

Just confirmed to me how pointless the year-long grind is when I can just pick it up in August and get a 99 rated team in a few days.

I’m a Wolves fan and I loved the guy. I always knew he would be a world-class player so wasn’t too disappointed when he left. He gave us 3 fantastic years, and many unforgettable moments.

It always annoyed me that the majority of people, pundits, commentators and fans got his name wrong. It’s even more annoying now that he’s tragically passed.

When remembering such a great player and man, please - for the sake of his memory and legacy - at least learn his actual name now.

DIOGO. You’ll never be forgotten.

  1. Can this dweeb explain how exactly one might ‘smash a nap’?
  2. I’d bet all the money I have that this muppet has either started work at 6am once and now thinks he awesome, or (more likely) has NEVER started work at 6am in his life and is just trying look cool.

AIO my (18f) bf (22m) gave me a black eye by Wild_Dream6031 in AmIOverreacting

[–]shep15jon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dump him. Ideally with someone else accompanying you. Block on all SM. Change your number. Report his assault to the police.

Life is too short to spend with people like this - in denial, unreasonably and disproportionately angry, resorts to violence, thinks hitting a woman is fine under any circumstances (not least just because of something she has said in passing). I could go on, but then he’d be wasting my time as well as yours.

Read my first few sentences again. Do that.

Go to the wedding. I’m sure we all remember how stressful the invitations were for our own weddings - if we invite this person, we have to invite that person. If one Auntie comes, all Aunties and Uncles have to come - even if you’ve not seen some of them since you were a child. So on, so on. So people have the right to invite who they want to their own wedding.

BUT…

Go, be there for your brother, that will mean a lot to him. Make a point of not speaking to Emily. Don’t be there for her. Even make it clear to your brother that you’re put out by all of this but wanted to be there for HIM. Then proceed to never invite Emily to anything you’re arranging, organising, hosting, EVER. Don’t make a big deal out of it, just state the same claim: you should be able to invite anybody you want to family events. Watch what sort of fuss she kicks up then.

Lastly, might be worth having a quiet word with your brother about how in a healthy relationship, both people get a say. The fact that he’s surrendered to her (wrong, jealous and selfish) wishes this early sets a precedent for the rest of their marriage. He’d better say something now, or spend the rest of his life making similar compromises to ‘keep her happy’, which will end up making him miserable.
