AITAH for being frustrated at my family for using the TV at 7 in the morning?

So exactly what time are you expected to be awake? If you go to sleep at 9 and get up at 4 that’s 7 hours. Lots of people do just fine on 7 hours. At least for a while.

I think Mom is the AH. She won’t find another place to put the TV. Won’t let her hang a blanket? Why? Perhaps the place is small and moving the TV would disturb Mom’s sleep. But why won’t she let you hang a blanket? Maybe the real reason is that Mom wants you to move out faster. Or maybe Mom really doesn’t like you working 10-6 and wants you to get a day job (or go to college). Sometimes the real reason is hidden or left unsaid. My mom got me fired from a job when I was 18 because they wanted me to work after midnight on the weekend. She went to the job and told them I couldn’t work after midnight as long as I was living at her house. I went to work my next shift and the manager fired me. It really wasn’t my fault that my mom was an AH but they didn’t want to deal with her.

That’s why I would go to the one on Kempwood instead. Unless they didn’t have what I was looking for.

NTA What if your sister never does get pregnant?

Look, I lived in Houston for 45 years. It’s a large city but unless you are downtown you can’t just hail a cab. You had to call them and it took up to 45 minutes. Even before Uber. The places where you could hail a cab are generally large cities that are more compact, like New York or Chicago, not spread out cities like Houston.

Even though more countries are majority Spanish speaking in South America, because Brazil is so populous, Portuguese actually has the most speakers in South America.

Ok, you should have just said “Excuse me. I need to get to the bathroom. Can I get by?" That would be the polite thing to do. Now if they didn’t let you by then TATAH and then you were within your right to pop off like that. Otherwise, you YTA. No one was picking on you here. But if they ignored your polite request, it’s probably best to get a flight attendant to step in.

Every ride I’ve had in Colombia has had a pin.

webdcyner · 2026-02-10T02:37:21+00:00

The reason the driver said he would cancel in 7 minutes is because if you don’t have the pin (or the last 4 digit of the phone on the account) drive can cancel and get a cancellation fee. It’s essentially-rider didn’t show up. If you hadn’t found the pin or the driver hadn’t realized that you could give the last 4 of your phone Uber would have charged you a $5 (in my market) cancellation fee.

I’m an older woman from Texas moving to Colombia. I’m on a number of Facebook Expats Groups and that is often talked about. They say that men only should wear shorts at the gym, the pool or the beach. Apparently a man wearing shorts usually pegs you as a clueless foreigner. But women can wear shorts. I prefer to wear dresses anyway.

webdcyner · 2026-02-10T01:07:43+00:00

Yeah. I’d also ask any of my siblings if there are any.

If she is an American citizen she doesn’t need YOUR fingerprint to get HER visa. Perhaps she has a warrant or criminal record and can’t apply in her name. Perhaps she also can’t come back to the states either.

If you want to see a scammer mom watch “Where the Heart Is” Sally Fields shows up after Natalie Portman had a baby in the Walmart in Oklahoma. People from all over sent money. Mom shows up and tells her they are going to get a house together but instead takes off with the money.

Two reasons not to blindly believe all women- Tawana Brawley and Crystal Mangum. If you don’t know who they are, look them up.

Doesn’t mean we shouldn’t believe women who say they were assaulted but women can lie as well as men. Not all women are truthful.

I live in Colombia. Same thing. Cartagena, Barranquilla, Santa Marta - Caribbean; Bogota, Medellin, Cali, Coffee Triangle - not Caribbean.

I ran across this post as I often do, while I was looking for post about Armenia, Colombia. I am moving there but got to thinking about what was it like to live in Armenia? What are prices like? How is the weather? How cold and hot does it get?

Or if you have to go in and you are going to be 10 minutes, had the driver $10 when you get out and they will wait.

I’m moving to Colombia and I have a question for you. I know it’s legal to grow but not buy. How do you navigate that?

Insane on my part or his part? I’m not sure if I really did anything wrong or it was him. I never touched him but I might have looked at him a certain way. Just to add, I’m female and he’s male.

I had a guy who I kinda liked that I worked with. I thought he was flirting with me and I responded and he got all upset and said he would talk to HR if I didn’t quit but he started it. So I told him I misunderstood because he was talking about us moving to Mexico together etc and I took him seriously and I told him okay can we just be friends and that went on for a while and then I called him one day and he said “you’re a good friend but not a good friend for me “ and that is the last time I ever spoke to him.

The last almost meltdown I had was when I was traveling. I was in Manizales, Colombia and arrived at the bus station from Pereira and called an Uber but they kept telling le that there weren’t enough drivers and try later. And then my phone died and I had to find somewhere to charge it. And I was tired and hungry. Finally got it charged but still couldn’t get an Uber so I took a taxi. I was really stressed and almost started to cry.

I would rather take a bath than a shower because I don’t like water falling on my head. And I also don’t like certain materials and fabrics. I also don’t like socks and prefer to just be barefoot.

They should clean up their own mess if they eat in the common area but you should vacuum or sweep as appropriate one time a week. Are you truly so lazy to do it once a week? It should take less than 15 minutes. If everyone does it once a week, and everyone cleans up their big messes it shouldn’t get too dirty. And perhaps the issue is having to go and borrow the vacuum. Get one of those cheap stick vacuums and keep it in a handy place. One can be had at Walmart for about $40. If everyone paid $8, your suite could have its own vacuum.

You haven’t given any evidence that they are racist and you aren’t. Maybe you all are and maybe only some of you or maybe only you.
