I’ve met a guy who allegedly had a whole row of swastikas tattooed on his chin, but he manages to pretend otherwise by just never shaving his beard. He was never even a nazi, he was just a young dumb punk who thought he could reclaim it.

Was that the guy who wanted his confederate flag tattoo removed but not the swastika because he's no longer a white supremacist but still supports the nazis?

My Lovely Horse posted:I feel like "guy who regrets his swastika tattoo" and "guy who doesn't already cover up his swastika tattoo of his own volition wherever he goes not only including but in fact especially at a wedding" are basically completely irreconcilable concepts. I think she wants him to put foundation on his face, to cover up the tear tattoo (and some others?), at least that's how I read it. And yes, people can change, hate is a difficult pit to crawl out from.

Yeah it's too bad that Dad only grew a spine for like 2.3 seconds ever. "I did something for which there was a no tolerance policy, and they didn't tolerate it!" is loving empty as gently caress. Does make me wonder what they have on dad though that he is forced to capitulate so hard. I mean it must be pretty loving bad.

They call me selfish even though I've helped out both of my siblings financially on several occasions and never asked for the money back.

Like literally every time, the childfree character is the saintly hero beset on all sides by iniquity. AITA for referring to myself as Mulatto? quote:I was having a conversation in a group and someone asked what my heritage was? It isn't uncommon for folks to assume I am Hispanic (usually Peruvian specifically) or just start speaking Spanish to me. I said I am Mulatto and someone in that group said that is a hateful term akin to High Yellow (if that is offensive? I've heard my Black family members use it but it was never in a negative light, I don't like that term personally), but I prefer that term for my description of race. I hate being called Mixed, which I have heard for years, I am not a dog breed. AITA for using a supposedly antiquated term to describe a person of black and white heritage?

Probably the reality had a lot less of OP looking chill and righteous, and a lot more everyone kind of sucking. Though I'd still put my money on OP not being the rear end in a top hat. Maybe AN rear end in a top hat (assuming the interaction wasn't as cut and dried as they depict it), but not THE rear end in a top hat.

I'm pretty sure choosing a god parent is just a sort of gesture of good will and it rarely becomes a legally binding THING unless you go through a lot of loopholes. gently caress's sake, just let her spend the years she has left feeling good about mattering to your kid and your childhood relationship. It literally costs you nothing to name someone a godparent unless you start drawing up legal documents. It obviously matters to her, let her have this special thing, ffs you goddamn ghoul.

Is it not the norm to have multiple godparents? You can name your friend for a nice fun thing to do and also someone else who is a more realistic choice. Or consider that the people you choose now might not be the best choices at any given moment in the next 18 years and you probably shouldn't sweat this one decision too much because you'll probably need to revise the plan anyway.

Deformed Church posted:Is it not the norm to have multiple godparents? You can name your friend for a nice fun thing to do and also someone else who is a more realistic choice. Catholicism has rules for the death of a godparent (and I assume other religions are similar), so unless Mia manages to survive past the kid's confirmation, OP can just get a new godparent after her death. After confirmation, the kid can't have an official godparent, but they can get a spiritual mentor, which is basically the same thing. Also WTF does OP expect out of a godparent? My experience has always been that they kind of exist but don't take a huge role in the kid's life other than being basically more family.

Also I'm not concrete on the dogma but they have to be present at the baptism for it to be legit I'd imagine so like, you can't just hot swap godparents when one burns out for some religious people I'm guessing? Real talk though just loving let her be godparent. the hell.
