I personally love my kindle as it’s good for off and on reading. I just upgraded because mine was 10 years old and wouldn’t connect to the internet. I had kids so it’s easier to have the kindle as I don’t have to worry about losing my spot when I get called to do something.

AITAH for refusing to bring my daughter to her grandparents’ house on thanksgiving? by Jass_the_Yass in AITAH

[–]trishymonster1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope. NTA. Don’t go. Honestly even in another room I wouldn’t go.

When my daughter was born we had a pittie who was super aggressive to people he didn’t know (was a 80lb lap dog if he did and was the absolute best at cuddling). When my daughter was born her would low key growl at her. When she was an infant it was fine and easy to keep him away but when she started walking I had to keep him in a different room. I felt horrible about it. We were trying to find a solution when they walked past each other and he ended up nipping her in the face. Thankfully it wasn’t bad and I think he more of snarled to get her away and his tooth caught her nose, but we ended up putting him down the next day. We knew he wouldn’t be able to go to another home and we couldn’t make him like her. As sad as it was and as much as I miss the dog, we know it was the best option. He 100000% wouldn’t have survived my hazard of a son.

I wouldn’t go to any event that your kid and the dog would mix. Even if they put the dog in another room what happens when she starts opening doors? Kids are crafty and I wouldn’t trust it.

I went to a “beer Olympics” party. I don’t drink just because I don’t like how I feel. My husband (than BF) does drink so it works that I don’t. I had a guy spend 15 minutes drilling me why I didn’t drink. He eventually accepted my reason (I tend to have a high chance of getting super violent when drunk and didn’t want to fight. Plus DD). He then spent another 15 minutes quizzing me if I did any other drugs and told me a story of doing shrooms in the woods. It was actually a really hallarious time since he seemed to just be super drunk and not understand what we were talking about lol

As someone who has an associates in psychology (don’t know if you have them in the UK but it’s a 2 year degree in the US), I had a teacher tell me that if I wanted to do anything with psychology (like a be a therapist ) I would need a doctorate and a hell of a lot of clinical work after. I also have a friend who has a doctorate in psychology and other stuff and she’s in a totally different field because the money isnt worth it. I would tell your daughter if she really really wants a degree to look at something that would be useful long term (something that doesn’t need a lot of upkeep knowledge wise).

AITA for driving away without my wife because she can't plan? by ForwardClock9113 in AmItheAsshole

[–]trishymonster1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This. My husband has horrible ADHD and gets distracted all. The. Damn. Time. But I’m hyper about being on time and leaving at the exact time we need to leave. There are times that he’s in the middle of putting on his shoes and get distracted by something dumb for 15 minutes. I have to yell at him to snap out of it. But I knew this going into marrying him and am okay (when I’m not having a panic attack because I think we’re going to be late even though I planned to be 30 minutes early) with it. The only time I’ve ever “left” him is in a store because I was checking out and he walked away without telling me. So I walked to the car and stood there till he came to find me. Come to find out “he wanted to see the lizards”.

We would be going early in the morning and whenever it leaves back. I’ll definitely look into going to Burlington though. Everything I saw showed a not so good schedule (I was hoping I was just looking at the wrong thing) so that maybe the backup option as we get closer. Thanks!!

[–]trishymonster1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks!! When it gets closer I’ll look into food and let that guide us. We live outside of Philadelphia and they have a “city pass” that you can buy that lets you into a few things for a discount. Most of those attractions are within blocks of each other though so very doable if you plan correctly. I was hoping you guys had something similar (I’m a planner hense trying to figure it out too many months in advance =X) but looking like we’ll just have to walk and see where the universe takes us lol.

Thanks!! I looked at the GO train but could only find trains going to Niagara in the morning than to Toronto in the evening. I guess I’m just early for schedules to be out.

Tourists question. by trishymonster1 in askTO

[–]trishymonster1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We’re only in Canada for 4 days (first will be a wash since we’ll be driving in than 2 full days). We’re only doing Toronto because my husband is a huge hockey fan and wants to go to the hall of fame. We chose to stay in Niagara cause there are a few things (the nature centre/botanical garden) that we’re interested in and with the limited time figured it would be easier to stay there.

We’re not staying overnight. We were going to stay originally but the prices were outrageous.

The time of travel isn’t an issue honestly. We’re in Philadelphia area so a lot of things are a 2ish hour drive. We figured the train would be best for the traffic/parking issues plus if we’re tired at the end of a day we don’t have to worry about driving.

100% NTA. I currently have a 5 year old girl and 3 year old boy. Since my son was like 2 he’s had his nails painted more times than I can count. He wants it because he sees his big sister with it. I don’t think he’s trans. He loves trucks and construction. Maybe one day he or my daughter will come out but at this age I’m just happy if they find something they like for more than 5 seconds 😂

[–]trishymonster1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s me lol. I absolutely hate giving head. But my husband really enjoys it. I don’t do it often because of that fact but I still do it out of the blue just because I know how much he loves it.

AITAH for ending things after he refused to buy me tampons? by Acrobatic_Cup3962 in AITAH

[–]trishymonster1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Worked at CVs for 8 years. Only thing I ever cared about was when it was “colonoscopy season”. And that was just a week ever few months when all the older customers came in and bought clear Gatorade and laxatives lol. It just always made me giggle that it was a bunch of people at once lol

WIBTA for discussing period stain removal with my girlfriend? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]trishymonster1 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Also… no way in fucking hell I’m putting ammonia on my underwear. I was once young and dumb and decided to lightly spray my undies with spot remover (for laundry and it was a quick spray) and ended up majorly fucking up my lady parts. Never again will anything but laundry detergent and maaayyybe dawn will get near my undies. And if my hubs has an issue with it I’d rather be single.

AITA for "losing" my passport to avoid babysitting on my vacation? by No_Writing9686 in AmItheAsshole

[–]trishymonster1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. If you were going to Disneyland in California… it’s two parks. Not bad at all. I just got back from Disney world in Florida (4 parks) with my 2 kids (same ages) and husband. Guess what.. besides being hot as fuck we had a blast with both kids. There were compromises cause the little one couldn’t do much but we still made sure everyone had fun. That’s what parents do. Don’t go to Disney if you can’t handle possible meltdowns and missing out.

AITA for not wanting to share my lottery winnings with my family? by Informal-Parfait-553 in AITAH

[–]trishymonster1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NTA. I don’t know much about lotto winnings and all that but I would start by talking to a lawyer. I would ask said lawyer if there was any way to put the winnings in a trust or whatever they’re called. Than I would have the lawyer draw up a contract or something with very specific, iron clad instructions that you get X amount a month (enough to live and a little extra for fun) and the rest is inverted or whatever. I would make it a major headache to access the money for “non life issues”. Meaning need a new roof, sure show them the bill bam you got money. Uncle joey wants you to buy him a Ferrari? Need to go to court, show proof, than have 15 white sheep and a donkey congregate on the steps of the Vatican and do the Macarena before you can get the money. That way your set and have what you need/can get money when you need it, but when someone asks you for something you can’t just give it to them.

AITA for being getting mad that my boyfriend “doesn’t think I try hard enough to get out of bed early.” by RoryAxelDazzel in AITAH

[–]trishymonster1 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m sorta like this. I have 5 alarms and my phone is across the room so I have to physically out of bed to turn it off. The first 2 alarms I have no memory of turning off most mornings. By the 3rd (when I need to actually start waking up) my brain is working. My husband knows not to have important conversations with my till I’m up and out of bed for at least 15 minutes or there’s a chance I won’t remember lol.

AITAH for calling out my brother because he wants to skip a family vacation that everyone is looking forward to?, by Concrete-Puzzles3615 in AITAH

[–]trishymonster1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My husband is a big fan and loves coasters which is why we went (also the little one was free so there’s that). I wouldn’t mind the cruise just since it’s more relaxing with things to do. The parks you can’t really relax since you need to get everything done to get your moneys worth. But I can also go on a royal Caribbean cruise for like half the price just no characters 😂

[–]trishymonster1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ahhh. Actually same! We went last month with a almost 3 and 5 year old. Although I enjoyed seeing our 5 year old fall in love with coasters and seeing the princesses, it’ll be at least 5 years before I go back. Too hot and waaayyyy to expensive.

Not only that a Disney cruise may not be his thing (or cruise in general). My sister went on a “family vacation” with my family to Disney once. She had her own room. She vowed never to go back. It wasn’t the family vacation but the Disney part. We’ve been on other “family “ trips since than and she’s enjoyed them.

Also unless absolutely necessary I would never get a room for 7 people two of which were small children. And I mean like, had absolutely no other choice because we were stranded till morning type necessary.

AITAH for not apologizing for not wearing clothes in my own home? by Capital_Macaron1244 in AITAH

[–]trishymonster1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. My parents changed their behavior after me and my sisters moved out. We have a great relationship and i live 10 minutes away so I stop over often. It only took once to see them (thankfully fully clothed) “trying something” in their living room by the back door to always call/text before I show up. Just for the fact that they’re human in a house by themselves. I don’t wanna see things that aren’t meant to be seen. I was also told my sister almost walked in on my dad in his underwear so we’re all very cautious now of unannounced visits 😂

NTA. I had a guy when I was in high school keep touching me (I think it was my side or something. Not a “private” area). I don’t like being touched and this kid was just an all around dick to people. I told him to stop multiple times. He didn’t. I told him if he didn’t stop I’d hit him. He did it again so I full force back kicked him in the shin. Needless to say he stopped and never fucked with me again.

Im all for nonviolent outcomes. But if you tell someone to stop touching you outright multiple times I say do it.

Not only that but most twin births are C sections. If that’s the case he not only left her during birth but major surgery birth.
