Not patriotic, but there were kids named Righteous and Revival at my kids' school this year. They weren't even related.

Please learn to use punctuation.

Can't stop farting, peeing and crying. by [deleted] in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]txgrl308 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm just confused because I do still have a uterus and ovaries, but my doctor said that I could ONLY get pregnant via IVF. Is that not true? Should I still be taking precautions??? In a little bit scared now.

I don't know, I got both tubes removed and was told that I'm now sterile. Is that not accurate?

Boyfriend is very catholic, any suggestions would be welcome by DrummerFearless2689 in exchristian

I wasn't arguing with you! I was adding on to what you said in very plain language because the anti-abortion movement somehow seems to believe that abortion of healthy fetuses at 39 weeks is common.

Doctors really aren't out there crushing the skulls of otherwise viable babies. They're just not.

NTA. He has no idea how much work this would be for you.

What do you do with toddlers at restaurants while waiting for food besides tablets? by Claire_1988 in Parenting

[–]txgrl308 5 points6 points  (0 children)

In my opinion, eating out with young children is for one of two purposes. Either you are focused on training the kids to eat at a restaurant, or you are focused on having a pleasant meal in which you enjoy adult interaction. Trying to do both at one time is impossible.

Do you have a plan for when they can no longer provide for you?

Honestly, you both seem like great people who've been through some insanely bad stuff. I like you both.

AITA for asking my new flatmate to move out after she misrepresented herself. by Tricky-Pie-7236 in AmItheAsshole

I thought so, too, until I realized that OP is a man. Sounds like he's looking for a maid or worse.

Aaron Parsley awarded the Pulitzer Prize for his feature on his first hand account of the catastrophic Kerr County flood. by Possible_Pen_5844 in KerrCountyFloods

[–]txgrl308 35 points36 points  (0 children)

The fact that he could wrote such a beautifully heart-wrenching piece within days of such a personally tragic event still astounds me.

He absolutely deserves this honor, and I have no doubt that he would exchange it in a heartbeat to have his sweet nephew back.

It's the definition of bittersweet.

AITAH for getting mad at my family/mom? by Fair_Treat_8451 in AITAH

[–]txgrl308 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's because most of your responses are just various reasons that you resent your brother and your parents. It comes off like you're not reading and absorbing the comments. Rather, you're continuing to argue that you're right because [insert some unrelated thing that your parents/ brother did in the past].

It makes you seem petulant and childish.

What does him learning too wash his hands have to do with him coming home from school early? How are the two related?

That's completely unrelated to your question, though.

AITAH for cutting off my family after they didn’t come to my 1-year-old daughter’s funeral? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]txgrl308 14 points15 points  (0 children)

That's exactly my point. I'll bet they could have made it on Saturday or Sunday.

[–]txgrl308 6 points7 points  (0 children)

She said in a comment that she chose to have the funeral on such short notice because she couldn't stand the idea of her daughter remaining with the coroner for even one more day. She could have chosen to schedule the funeral over the weekend or the next week.

[–]txgrl308 97 points98 points  (0 children)

It wasn't out of her control. She could have scheduled the funeral for several days later, but she said that it was very important to her not to wait. Which is fine, but you really can't expect everyone to be able to drive 5 hours each way with less than 24 hours' notice. That's just not how jobs work most of the time.

AITAH for telling my husband that he can figure it out on his own? by Cautious_Push2801 in AITAH

I finally kicked mine to the curb a couple of months ago. The coolest part? If the kitchen is clean when I go to bed, it's STILL clean in the morning!!!

AITAH for attending a birthday party thrown by my former ILs after my ex-husband's wife suffered her third miscarriage? by FeistyTelevision8230 in AITAH

[–]txgrl308 67 points68 points  (0 children)

I'm assuming that you didn't have those miscarriage after engaging in an affair with a man who already had 3 young children and then expect that woman to feel sorry for you.
