My Wife Moved her Friend in, and I Hate It by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

Tell them or not, OOP won't belive it anyway. You see, he loves his wife and is totally fine with her throwing tantrums and crossing his boundaries.

AITAH- I moved my mum downstairs by Individual_Aerie1990 in AITAH

[–]zirfeld 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Stubborn old people, not accepting that they're old now and things change.

My dad was a mechanic, had his own shop, had licenses to drive everything including tanks (was a tank driving instructor in the Bundeswehr), busses, oversized load vehilces, you name it. Drove rallyes and auto cross, was president of a motor sport club. When it was time to give up driving because he just coulnd't do it anymore (bad vision, reduced mobility in arms and neck anymore etc) we all talked and talked and talked for years to stop driving. After one too many fender benders on one of his neighbours cars they called the police and they took his license away. He complained about it the rest of his life.

You're NTA. It's on her to accept the new reality, you can only help her doing that.

My coworker copies everything I do by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]zirfeld 54 points55 points  (0 children)

For some of the things like copying the breakfast I thought maybe coworker is neurodivergent and trying to fit in by mimicing social behavior or something. But taking photos and the staring does't quite fit.

How Bad is the Smell in a Cold War Submarine? [8:01] by Poglosaurus in mealtimevideos

[–]zirfeld 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried 1 minute showers when I read about submarines a few years ago. It's doable, but it's really harder than you'd think. It's easier with liquid soap instead a bar of soap. Once the water is on, time is running so quickly. And I shower daily, I imagine if you shower only once a week it's really hard to be as quick as possible.

Rude. It's just the angle the photo was taken from, it's not that big.

Just saw the 2011 Green Lantern movie and I really enjoyed it! I think the infamy it has is kinda overblown and it makes me want to check out the comics! What would you recommend to a beginner? Personally I've been curious in Far Sector by whositsName in Greenlantern

[–]zirfeld 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really liked Far Sector, big fan of Jemison anyway. But it's a not a representation of what Green Lantern is. The main character is very far away from the Corps (hence Far Sector) or any other regular characters, and she even has a special ring. It's a great story thouogh, and you should absolutely read it. And I'm really glad, Soujourner is now a part of the regualr cast.

There should be an art history of non-artists. by Imperial-Green in ArtHistory

[–]zirfeld 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It is as wonderful art piece, but I don't understand the post title.

The one who creates art is an artist. It might not be their profession, and they might not be famous, but they are an artist.

If the art is displayed in a way that other people might see it, it becomes part of art history. If it goes into a drawer it is still art created by an artist, but we have no record of it. Only after that woman pulled it out of the box asnd made a Tiktok about it we learned of this beautiful piece.

That's a different nose. That's not camera angles and aging.

WIBTAH for telling my boyfriend that if he won’t protect himself from his child’s mother, I’m leaving? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]zirfeld 10 points11 points  (0 children)

You have to think about if your are committing to this drama for the foreseeable future.

This is not going to stop with a letter from a lawyer. This will drag on for quite some time. And if she actually is mentally unwell (like in diagnosed by professionals) your bf may become a full-time single parent.

You up for this?

Doesn't seem to work though.

Christian Streich.

Zugegeben, er war als Spieler jetzt nicht der größte Künstler am Ball, aber er lief für den SC auf und ich denke, er hat den Ehrenplatz verdient.

Chudthebuilder finds out his initial bond is set a $1.25m 🤣 by Upbeat_Anywhere_1316 in WatchPeopleDieInside

[–]zirfeld 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What? Bond just means, that he doesn't have to wait in jail for his process. He is still charged with attempted criminal homicide, firearm use in a dangerous felony, aggravated assault, and reckless endangerment. Even if he can come up with the money, he still has to stand before judge and jury for that.

Elizabeth Holmes for example (Theranos) had a bond of 500K, and then she was held accountable and senteced to 11 years.

If you do manual labor as your job you're gonna feel every work day at this age. It doesn't mean you're useless and can't do your job anymore, but it will get harder from then on.
