I swear there was a story here where someone was like "I eat my cereal with water" like it was just a normal not worth discussing detail and then in the comments somebody defended them with mentioning they ate their cereal with orange juice

AreWeDrunkYet posted:AITA for getting annoyed that my girlfriend doesn’t cater for me when I visit? Guy's being a little bitch about it, but honestly if you know there is some kind of food your partner really likes and they're coming over to visit a lot, it's just nice to have it there for them. Repeatedly saying "well you should have bought that yourself if you wanted it" -- and throwing out any food they attempt to leave there -- is pretty cold. Like don't you want your partner to feel welcomed into your house?

This one goes places My (24F) Boyfriend (26M) Keeps Pranking Me, and I'm At My Breaking Point [NSFW] quote:It all started around a week ago, I went to the grocery store to get some things we needed, and when I got home, I went to put the stuff in the fridge. As I was about to close the door, I got whipped cream smashed on my face. I got annoyed at first, but hearing my boyfriend laugh made me laugh, and all was good. I needed a shower after interacting with other people at the store anyway. It's fine.

I don't disagree, but she says she doesn't like to keep it around because she'll just eat it herself. If she has any kind of problem with binge eating (apparently chocolate was a problem before?) then simply not eating the food may be next to impossible.

Yeah I surprisingly came around to his side a bit at the end. He comes across as kind of whiny but he puts in the effort, stocks things she likes, and as you mentioned she tosses anything he brings. The issue isn't actually that he wants her to "cater" to him, he just wants her to be somewhat considerate of some of the things he likes just as he is considerate of her tastes. This is all assuming he's normal and not a 400 pound ball of flesh subsisting on nothing but Cheetos. I think in the end though there's probably some lifestyle incompatibility and that this issue is just a symptom.

AITA for refusing to pay for a lunch bill?quote:Using a throwra cuz u never know. This is an issue that's been bugging me over the last few days. So I work in a small office with 8 other women. This is a new job and I started in January but I have only been in the office working with them for about 3 weeks. Anyway, someone suggested we get together at this outdoor restaurant on the weekend so I went.

AreWeDrunkYet posted:Is it really that hard of a concept that if you want to do pretty much anything that's going to attract attention at a party, you should clear it with the host first? Some people getting married might have no problem with someone else using the fact that everyone is gathered to propose, but it should never be a surprise for the bride or groom. If they are cool with it, when do you do it? I'd think right at the start before anything has actually begun, maybe. Any other time would be kind of disruptive or leave a bigger lasting impression than the wedding.

Sillybones posted:If they are cool with it, when do you do it? I'd think right at the start before anything has actually begun, maybe. Any other time would be kind of disruptive or leave a bigger lasting impression than the wedding. Depends on the flow of the event and the folks involved. If it's a reception where the DJ (or equivalent family member organizer shouting "okay everyone it's time for the cake") is doing a lot of callout stuff then you can tack it onto the end of those after the cake and daddy/daughter and mother/son dances and such, the family celebration segments. Start might work better with different plans. Personally if I were to do such a thing it would just be an announcement along the lines of "I wanted to tell y'all while we were here together, and <brother> and <sis-in-law> gave their blessing, so <fiancee> and I are engaged. Woo, and all that." Bruceski fucked around with this message at 06:21 on Jul 25, 2020 |

It's pretty clear that the point definitely was to upstage the wedding and the cousin has a long history of doing that kind of poo poo.

TBH I'm against big, public proposals in general. Too often they feel like one party is trying to peer pressure the other into saying yes.

# ? Jul 25, 2020 06:24 |

This thread is obviously proof that's not the case, but if the answer is in doubt you shouldn't be planning a proposal. The timing, location, or method can be a surprise, but the response shouldn't be.

Ghost Leviathan posted:Do they have people getting scurvy living off instant ramen? Probably. Japan had rich people dying for hundreds of years from thiamine deficiency because they ate exclusively polished white rice. It kill tons of people in the military because all you could eat white rice was used as an enticement to get people to enlist. hawowanlawow posted:my wife got pissed when I made her swiss miss hot chocolate with water That's the way I grew up having it and won't even consider using milk, mostly due to the generic store 1 gallon milk playing hell with my stomach. The best stuff like from Ghirardelli is even better because it lacks the overpowering sweetness and its almost like a savory drink. I mostly use it to mix with coffee instead of water now though.

Beachcomber posted:They ate just rice? Low ranking officers in the Japanese military would often eat nothing but white rice, as they didn't need to pay for it and it was considered a luxury and major reason to sign up, so something like 35% of the naval officers would get regular bouts of beriberi or die from it. They had to change and mandate a more complete diet to fix the issue.

And the thing is, rice as-harvested contains thiamine. The polishing process is what removes it.
