AITA for never returning my friend’s oven mitts

2 years for a set of oven mitts? If I left a spare set of like, oven mitts or tongs or whatever at my friend's house after they just moved in and forgot them, even if I remembered like 6 months later or whatever I would just ask "Hey do you even still have those?" and they said "yeah you left them here and I assumed it was a gift." I would honestly just say "Alright they're your problem now." The gently caress do you urgently need oven mitts for 2 years after you forgot them that can't wait to order them from like, amazon or whatever? Especially if your solution is "Mail them back to me and pay for it."

A home birth that takes 16 hours.

Pretty normal for a first labor?

Holy cow, did I not want anybody but my husband there, because I wanted to be as loud as I wanted to and as messy as was unavoidable. Also, home birth never tempted me because I wanted somebody else washing the sheets.

I've had lobster and you're not missing much. I mean, it's like a giant shrimp as far as taste and texture but a little milder and a little softer? Sometimes it's hard to tell under all the garlic butter. But it's not some kind of orgasmic food. Crab legs are about the same, just harder to get into. As far as seafood I really prefer shrimp, fried softshell crab or mussels unless it's in a sushi because then eel is the loving best.

The best lobster I ever had was on a lobster, bacon and arugula pizza. It was fantastic.

All that being said, I've never had oysters. I have watched a ton of food people try them and rave about them but the texture just looks horrific. I honestly think I would try them but I would gag 100% on trying to swallow it. I'd try them but none of my friends are food adventurers. They are all of the very safe food people so like, I'm the adventurous one ordering Indian food, ffs, it's just spicy chicken and spicy gravy plus rice.

Wait some people just own 'tea cups'' like it's 1900? I drink both coffee and tea and use mugs for both. Mugs are my warm fluid dispenser, also good for hot chocolate the one time a year it's made. The idea of some special cup just for tea is so weird to me.

It's a teaching opportunity. Tell her the meat is cooked to this doneness for a reason and try to sell the story, say you will be really happy if she's willing to try a piece, but that of course you will take the dish back and do it well done if she does not like it.

Have the piece be a relatively thin one, and if the pastry is so dark you can't just finish it in the oven then just hit the meat with a torch.

[b][AITA for not letting my mom use my grandmother's moniker for her grandkids/b]

I want a reality check here. I'm a Boomer, and my grandparents were Gramma [Momsname] and Gramma [Dadsname]. When I had kids, their grandparents followed the same pattern (where Momsname is Mom's maiden name and so on.) My husband's family had a grandmother who was called by the nickname my husband gave her when he was a toddler, and his other grandmother was always called "Nanny" by pretty much everybody but her children.

How recent is the idea of picking a grandparent name for each grandparent? Or is it subcultural, or has everybody else always been doing it?
