He didn't want to be late(r than he already was).

it is too bad he did not have some sort of communication device so he could discuss the matter with his friends.

Despite that the guy is a clueless moron who doesn't even know how to talk around the gender roles issues, there do seem to be genuine problems here. Unless I'm reading this wrong - he's written this poorly - a lot of weeknights she feeds the kids a pile of McDonalds crap plus fruit, and then later (presumably just before he gets home) makes dinner just for herself. With the lack of interest in sex to boot, she seems checked out of the marriage. The guy is probably not wrong that he is a paycheck machine atm.

In the replies he says his plan was to take half (his mother's half) and then split the fathers half into thirds, one each for him and the two half-siblings via a trust fund, basically saying he just doesn't want the woman who stole his father from him to get access to the money.

he says that now that he's been called on it. It is weird you wouldn't headline with that plan when you're literally posting to ask what others think.

"Humans have similar temperature limits but they can vary substantially with age, skin condition, and contact method
compared to most animals. Below are several key temperatures:
 120°: burns after five to ten seconds in hot water for small children and the elderly.
 140°: burns after one minute contact or hot water immersion for average adult. (Adults with calloused skin can
tolerate longer but still achieve burns.)
 160°: rapid burns and blistering after contact with firm surface or water immersion. Nerve damage is possible. "

There's nothing skeevy or morally suspect about it. She was not coerced in any way - it's consenting adults without any hint of impropriety. That she didn't realize he was a real person, apparently, is not his problem. Now she's regretting a decision *she* made and she's pondering trying to screw him over for it. rear end in a top hat.

(I mean, I may be reading tea leaves here, but her word choice of 'unprofessional' and 'disgusting' indicates to me she's thinking of trying to get him in trouble with the school.)

Nah I'm gonna say that if someone refuses to pay you for the work you just did, you are not obliged to give them the fruits of your labour.

Counterpoint: Someone trying to file a lawsuit because a single negative Yelp review is a grotesquely inflated ego balloon.


There's probably a lot of ways to show that a knife is sharpened, like, I dunno, cutting something. Or you could keep the knives till they pay. Something other than throwing a tantrum because someone dared question you.

This is like someone at a restaurant saying "I asked for a medium rare steak, I'm not going to pay for a rare." and the chef storming out to your table and throwing your steak on the floor then threatening to sue you after you file a negative review.

Cheryl never said this, this is where he took it right away

what i'm seeing in this thread is how many goons would also be this dramatic.

He's not being dramatic though. He didn't blow up at Cheryl, he diplomatically asked his wife to talk to her about it and found the answer unacceptable then sent a direct message stating his position. The argument and "You don't recover from being a dangerous man" are both in the context of his wife thinking he's overreacting, apparently she thinks Cheryl just needs to get to know him better or something. He disagrees and has decided to write Cheryl off, which, you wouldn't think you'd see this thread calling out someone for :sever:. His wife thinks he's being the rear end in a top hat and he's AITA; it's not even Cheryl calling him an rear end in a top hat.

It is dishonest and the teacher is the rear end in a top hat. If they look at the quizlet and its answers differ from what students thought was correct, is it really that surprising that students would use the quizlet answers instead?

I'm not sure what other material the teacher thought the kids were cheating with, that they felt the need to gently caress with their students.

This is some straight up "You fool, you made the ultimate mistake: you trusted me" material right here.
