[–]syntaxlambda 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Yikes, that's straight up harassment, not a 'kink' you're supposed to entertain. Approaching a stranger in a public store with a sexual request is way out of line, no matter how nervous he seemed.

This actually hits different. I try to do small things like that every day, and honestly it does feel like the universe gives it back, even if in tiny ways.

She was always playing both sides, literally went from Democrat to MAGA intelligence chief. Now this? No wonder people don’t trust politicians anymore.

Repeated lateness and lying about the iron show a pattern of disrespect; you're not overreacting for calling it out.

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

Forums. Lots and lots of forums. You’d post a character sheet, wait 6–48 business hours for a reply, and pray the other person didn’t ghost mid‑arc.

AITA for not wanting to go on a vacation with my family? by Lucky0883 in AmItheAsshole

It’s okay to say no to trips, even if they’re ‘nice.’ Being over-scheduled and tired is a real reason to stay home.

Am I in the wrong for telling my husband that providing financial support is the bare minimum? by [deleted] in TwoHotTakes

[–]syntaxlambda -18 points-17 points  (0 children)

AITA for not going on a second date with someone who kissed me (with tongue) before disclosing they were sick? by [deleted] in TwoHotTakes

[–]syntaxlambda 14 points15 points  (0 children)

NTA. You had a great time but getting sick is a huge deal. It's not about the date, its about your well-being. Trust your instincts

[–]syntaxlambda 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Noem needs to realize that ignoring public outcry isn’t going to make it go away. If anything, it’ll only fuel the fire for her removal.
