when he began to sob into his keyboard. I went over to ask him what was wrong and he told me that despite lurking for years he still couldn't build up enough confidence to ask DIY how to build a fence.
Disappointed I could only say, "Well son, you can't start to build a fence if you can't even create a post."
My sister (28) and her husband came home to with my parents and I (21) for the holiday. Her kids are 8 and 6.
a couple of nights before thanksgiving, my sister went to a concert with her husband, and left the kids with my parents. My parents decided they wanted to go to a dinner party, and they just left in the evening and left the kids there with me.
I was not asked to watch the kids, I hate kids. They just told me they were going out and left them in the living room. My sisters kids are at an age where theyโre loud and hyperactive together. You canโt just put a movie on for a time and leave them. Iโm in my last year of school, and I actually didnโt go hang out with some friends so that I could study. So when I noticed this, I just left them alone.
I went to my room to study and locked the door.
I heard a lot of banging, screaming and general ruckus, I checked on them to be sure they werenโt injuring themselves, but I let them do as they please. I wasnโt asked to watch them.
They ended up causing quite a bit of damage, they broke the TV (I think by throwing stuff at it). They got into my moms oil paints and smeared them everywhere. Oil paint was on the curtains, walls, sofa, rugs, ceiling everywhere. They had dog food thrown everywhere?? (Luckily the dog himself was with me) water and juice spilled everywhere in the kitchen. It was a wreck. Honestly, I laughed.
However, get this, my mom expects me to pay for the damages! She said I was an asshole for not just studying down stairs and watching the kids. I WAS NOT ASKED TO WATCH THEM. I told her she should ask my sister for the money. They are her kids.
My whole family has been fighting about this for several days. Whatever the outcome , I want to show them this thread to prove that I am not responsible for my sisters banshees settle the familial dispute by showing them this thread.
But on the off chance, AITA?
I recently moved into an apartment with two other roommates. I've known them and been friends with them for a bit, but haven't been super close with either of them.
I have a lot of game consoles, including a Switch and a PS4, which I'm moving in. I'm also taking a TV that was at my parent's that they weren't using. However, I wanted to move them into my room, but one of my roommates complained. He said I was being selfish (I have the only TV in the apartment, neither of my roommates have the money to buy one at the moment), and that I should put the TV in the living room instead so everyone can use it.
I like to keep my games and consoles in really good condition, and just don't feel comfortable keeping them out in the living room, mostly because I'm not cool with people using them without asking. Am I the asshole?
I had to go to another room for a bit and donโt want the cats eating it.
Took an edible and I feel like this is something I would for sure forget.
"Everything I touch becomes felt!"
So bit about me, I'm 23, I live at home with my parents, when I do my laundry I tend to leave out my more delicate things on a drying rack which is in our living room and this is the same thing my mom does with her's and my dads stuff that doesn't get put in the dryer. My older brother is in town and spending some time with us. Last night we were watching tv together while I was doing laundry, I hung up some bras and other things on the rack and he made a comment about how that's inappropriate to do. He doesn't seem to remember our mom ever doing that but in his mind he says me hanging my bras is like me showing something more intimate which I shouldn't show in the open. Have't had the chance to talk to my parents about it yet as they were out last night but to me I see no problem in hanging this, it's not like I'm hanging fetish wear its just some casual bras.
Turns out it was a multiplication table.
Someone stop her, please. Iโm begging you.
Phil is conducting his workout from the comfort of his home. I know Iโve reached out to the QC and to Phil separately in their Insta DMs to encourage more social distancing and separation during this time. I said while I appreciate and love the content they were providing, I wanted to make sure they were maintaining a safe distance from external sources. I reiterated that this was not me being mean or nasty or just being flat out rude.
Their content has actually brightened this dark world a bit. I love the distraction and I love their commitment to working out and providing that to us. Iโm happy that theyโll be doing a split screen workout so my anxiety over Philโs contact with others wonโt ruin the workout that they provide.
For everyone who says Tannah doesnโt care or theyโre not serious or a lot of other things, just remember to not discourage them from actually learning and growing. Any changes they make where they become safer is encouraged. Any vitriol that you want to spew, please know that people do not respond well to that.
This is a time of great stress and we look towards other people to shine some light. Be kind. Criticize but be kind. Tia has also posted to stay home and thatโs great! We want people to come around and we want them to realize the seriousness of the situation, but they canโt if you keep spewing negativity and anger towards them when theyโre getting better.
Thanks! Everyone stay safe, healthy, and remember, if you feel down, look to people who can lift you up and support you.
Edit: i also wanted to say that they posted a video where Hannah was getting a bit overwhelmed and frustrated because she wanted to do something and give back in terms of this virus. They do care, but theyโre stuck just like the rest of us. I know Iโve been pretty overwhelmed by all the things I wish I could fix. Do small things to contribute to your community. Buying gift cards from your local businesses. Itโs the small things that make the world change and the difference. So stay healthy, stay home, and stay compassionate! Theyโre not doing nothing and they do care.
It was truly glorious https://i.imgur.com/eNM1fCF.jpg
