Why do people always say stuff like this? It never fools anyone

Kenshin posted:

Yeah this sounds like a setup from someone who has gained a lot of weight quickly and feels terrible about it but also refuses to examine those feelings and instead looks for ways to use it to make herself feel better instead of addressing the root cause.

If you're a horrible lovely person this sounds like a great way to score internet points with all of your new community (in this case whatever size-acceptance community this woman and her friend are part of):

AITA for automating my job and getting paid while doing basically nothing?
EDIT: While I appreciate the career advice on using my skills to increase my salary. I am not looking for a let's say 30% raise while moving from 3-5 hours a week to 40 hours a week. I am quite happy with my compensation per hours worked as is, I was just curious if i was TA or not.

It would be super cool to live in a fantasy world in your own head where you're never responsible for your actions if it weren't for all the real world repercussions.

Do people like this ever change or do they mostly live their entire lives feeling as though they have no blame for anything they do?

Wow, that wasn't the update I expected from that post.

So I'm not alone in assuming from the title it was cuck poo poo, right?

I am sure it happens outside of reddit but the only vaguely successful threesome I ever heard was from some old college friends, had a bisexual male couple with a bi girl, and she kinda took charge of the entire endeavor and made sure everyone was involved, and no one sat things out unless they wanted a breather. It wasn't "hahaha I am loving your boyfriend" but more "WE are loving the dude." But they were also really loving open about the entire thing in the LGBTQ club, which makes me wonder if they were fishing for more couples.

Lady is definitely the rear end in a top hat for picking a window seat in her condition, but he's still pretty dumb and her suggestion was on point. You can choose the Climb Over People seat or the Get Climbed Over seat, there is no Get Climbed Over Maybe Once Or Twice Very Politely And Conveniently seat. You don't have to fly very often to figure out that some people go to the bathroom on planes once an hour or more and if you don't want to have to deal with that there is an easy fix.

This is a valid point given that OP is presumably living at home for financial reasons so completely torching that bridge might not be a smart move (yet).

Maybe the good first step here is to not just "lie about her schedule" but *actually* modify her schedule so she's practically never at home. Buy some headphones and a lunchbox, start packing your lunch, sprint out of the house as early as possible every morning, then come home as late as possible every night - even to the extent of things like "well, normally I'd go home and watch Netflix in the evenings but now I do that at the computer lab", "all my studying happens at the library rather than my room", sign up for some clubs or something, etc. And if there's a close friend or two who doesn't mind if you crash on their couch, maybe consider randomly doing that too just to further emphasize that nope, can't just assume Jenny will be home to be your sitter.

MagusofStars posted:

The dad who texted her while she was in the bathroom to say “yo, the kids are asleep in your room, your problem now” and the sister who gave zero fucks about leaving them there even when OP had an exam...not really people who are going to listen when she says no. Instead, they’ll just ignore her no matter what she says and continue to dump the kids on her.

And the idea of just call the police or CPS only works if she plans on moving out ASAP. If she’s living at home in college and working a job (per her post), it’s very likely because she can’t afford to do otherwise. So getting kicked out of the house for calling the cops or CPS on her sister isn’t a viable option.

If she was in a place where she could afford to tell them gently caress off and if you don’t like it, see ya...then hell yeah, take that option. But as she’s described her situation, I’m really doubting that’s the case.

StrangersInTheNight posted:

some people really super care about the gender binary and enforcing correct gendered behavior, not sure why this is a surprise. these are the same people who want bathroom laws. of course people care. just bc you don't care doesn't mean it isn't an issue for folks, don't be obtuse.

WHERE did the parents find the dildo? If they were rooting around in her bedroom, yeah, they can gently caress off. If the sister was using it as a table decoration at dinner, maybe a conversation about appropriateness needs to be had.

cumshitter posted:

So my partner and I had just come back from enjoying some appies at Chile's when we decided to go to pound town. I'm inside her snickerdoodle, totally vibin' in the bone zone and of course she's totally into me topping her muffin. And whenever we're on the train to the Cumdrop Forest in Randyland she does this thing where she just starts repeating memes. She keeps saying "snoop my boop" or "like and subscribe to my rear end in a top hat."

Anyway, the reason I'm asking Reddit is that my partner and I can't agree on our monthly Reddit Gold budget, and we need help drafting a contract regarding our spending on it.

Things like this on reddit make me go "geez it's like there are no healthy relationships anymore" then I remember those people probably talk and communicate with each other to resolve problems and don't try and crowdsource advice.

Yeah something like "consider it an early/late birthday present," or "someone recently helped me out and I'm paying it forward," or even something super vague like "I'll let you get me next time," anything in the world but "no thanks you're too poor."

They ought to teach tact in school. It'd be super helpful for people with warmth in their hearts and feet in their mouths
