betaraywil posted:AITA for making a deal with my MIL which lead to her never meeting my children? Honestly the OP sounds like a loving lunatic herself. quote:She pointed out that I don't look like the other women in the family, thin and attractive. She made a joke about he should have worked for his stepdad like he was offered, so he could afford better. She would sweetly ask me if I wanted to try something because she heard it was good for weightless. quote:I wish I went into it knowing about her anxiety issues and that she can't handle things normally. I wish I could take back what I said about her parents euthanizing her because my husband lost his grandparents over that, a quote:I do think but I'm not qualified to diagnose her. My husband is convinced that she can't have it because she is "too pretty". I lean towards her having it but that doesn't make it true quote:I know. I tried to tell him that but he screamed that I'm just jealous because she has more money and therefore looks better than me quote:My personality really triggers her. Apparently I'm too loud and pushy. I demanded respect, such as being included in her family pictures and she would freak out that I'm not her daughter and to get the gently caress away from her. Her entire family hated me and told her she was right. quote:My kids don't see anyone from the family. The entire family chose to go NC with us. There are family members like his step grandmother who I think would have liked to meet the kids but they did not feel comfortable coming to our house, and then MIL's parents want nothing to do with us, and SIL talks to him but they aren't close anymore and she will not step foot in our housed. Uh, it sure is possible that everyone else in the family is crazy, but when your the one that an entire group of people go NC with, it's a high chance you are the problem. pentyne fucked around with this message at 01:59 on May 8, 2021 |

pentyne posted:Honestly the OP sounds like a loving lunatic herself. Seriously. I got to this part quote:The three of us had a long conversation about what we wanted. MIL wanted to be able to see her son without seeing me. I wanted to not put up with her poo poo anymore, and my husband didn't want to lose either of us. During the talk I learned that MIL was totally indifferent to having grandchildren, so I proposed a deal. MIL and DH could have whatever relationship they wanted outside of me, she could have her family dinners and her family pictures without having to freak out about me not being family, but she would never meet our kids. I really get the vibe that the OP has the need to insert herself into every single interaction her husband has, even if she doesn't want to be there. That is super unhealthy and I don't blame the MIL for wanting space.

The Bramble posted:I have this idea that the pizza store in my hometown we got takeout from growing up is the best ever. Every friend or girlfriend I've taken to visit my parents has taken me aside later to let me know it was extremely bad and they'd never knowingly eat there again. It's still the first thing I eat when I drive out to visit Mom. Pizza Hut thin crust ham and tomato. There are far better pizzas out there but it's what Dad always got when we went out and it tastes like childhood far more easily than figuring out exactly how to burn the meatloaf the way Mom used to.

AITA For Letting The Cat Wreck My Roommate's New Sofa?quote:-Throwaway because my roommate knows my Reddit account- AITA for being angry with my parents for calling the office of the school I teach at? quote:I am 26 and teach elementary school. I live a few state away from my parents and have no family here. I’ve made sure they have points of contact with people here and they also have my boyfriend’s number. When my phone went to voicemail and texts wouldn’t deliver, they called the office of my employers (elementary school) to “see if I made it to work okay today”.

Partly, but scratching is also a means of marking territory, so having a scratching post won't necessarily eliminate the desire to claw other things.

Not necessarily, as a crazy cat dad I have scratching posts everywhere and one cat exclusively uses them but the other still goes for the couch. You can definitely trim their claws without any abuse worry and that works well.

We also tried the soft caps things; as soon as we'd get them on all of them would sit there gnawing at them until they got them off again and go right back to clawing. Now we just trim their claws once every other week.

Declawing a cat involves amputating the last bone of each toe. It really fucks with their skeletal structure later in life, not to mention what sort of pain they might be in. So there really shouldn't be any doubt about whether it's animal abuse or not.

My (28F) uncle (49M) is fixated on the idea of my husband (28M) having a mistress and getting him to say he would leave me if his mistress was pregnant.quote:My cousin is pregnant with a married man’s baby. It’s been a huge scandal in our family, but my uncle has been doing his hardest to convince everyone that my cousin is the real victim in this situation. He thinks that the married man, who has small children with his wife, should abandon them and take care of my cousin and their baby instead.

SneezeOfTheDecade posted:AITA For Letting The Cat Wreck My Roommate's New Sofa? My wife had two cats, and her new roommate decided to go get a new couch. Roommate begins staying with her boyfriend and we don't see her for the next year. The new couch arrives and it's faux leather. Wife calls the roommate, "I can't take delivery of this for you, it's pleather and the cats are going to ruin it just by walking on it," and the roommate says "just try your best to keep them off it." So she's like, poo poo, goes and gets a thick cover for it, spends a year shooing the cats off the soft comfortable thing, roommate comes by no joke three times. A year later, roommate comes to pack up her stuff, and she looks at the couch. It's actually not bad! No scratching, no rips or tears, just pinpricks on the arm rests. Roommate goes absolutely bugfuck about how her couch is ruined, and now wife owes her the cost of the couch. See, she was going to sell the couch on Craigslist, and since she hadn't personally sat on it, she considered it a new couch, which should fetch the full retail price. This was not to be a depreciating couch. Wife's like nah, I warned you when the couch showed up that this was going to happen. Let's go get one of those touch up kits, and I'll help with it, but I'm not buying you a new couch. Roommate says she's not settling for anything less than the retail price of the couch, wife says good luck with that, roommate goes to go get her boyfriend. They come back a few hours later, and demand to know why the cats were allowed the run of the apartment in the first place. Wife should have kept them in her bedroom in her otherwise vacant apartment, in order to preserve the couch in a pristine state. Okay, so what if it's cruel to keep an animal in a confined space? So what if it's physically improbable for one person to be able to keep two cats in a tiny room they're determined to leave? If you really cared about the couch, you would have put up a fence around it. The fence thing was the last straw, and we told them to take the couch and get the gently caress out, and then roommate has a clever thought and says "No. I'm not moving this couch until you pay me." She storms out. So anyway we changed the locks and told her the couch was going on the curb morning after next. So that's my frame of reference for cat couch poo poo. Build a fence around my couch while I leave it at your place for a year. Nevertheless, it's the guy who's mad that his own cat hosed up his couch is out of his mind.

So there really shouldn't be any doubt about whether it's animal abuse or not. The only time I think it would be ok to declaw is if the cat would otherwise be euthanized by it's crazy loving owners. I'm in vet med and you'd be surprised by the amount of owners we see that would not surrender their pets to a rescue or other people that were willing to put time and money into continuing treatment or rehoming them. Pets that aren't even horribly sick. They have treatable diseases or need surgery or just repeat visits to bandage or cast and the owners simply have no money and won't surrender. If you ever have to make the decision to declaw a cat, make sure it is done by the cautery laser. It's still barbaric but the cat wakes up being able to walk right away and doesn't have anywhere as much bleeding or pain. For the most part in the five years I worked at a clinic that declawed they had no bleeding at all. The sutures come out on their own and they go home with pain meds and antibiotics. It's not ideal but if their life is on the line, I recommend the vet uses a laser.

They are extremely good, and they tend to be expensive because they're labour-intensive to produce, but I've never paid anywhere near $95 for one. The most I've paid for one is $65 Australian dollarydoos which works out to about $50 freedom dollars.

Man, that giant derail about the homebrew porn studio today and not a single person voiced the thought that the college kid that owned the house probably didn't have a formal agreement with the buddy they were renting to. I'm laughing buckets at the one guy who blamed his roommate because the roommate didn't stop the dumbasses cat from destroying the dumbasses furniture.
