#AITA story

AITA for reuniting with my childhood sweetheart?

I (25F) moved out of my hometown out in the mountains to the city for college at 18, moving in with Sister (30F). This move separated me from my parents and anyone else I knew for years, including my childhood sweetheart (27M). We started out as the typical bully pulling pigtails until CS and I grew up. We admitted feelings at 15 and 16, with him explaining that he always had feelings for me. However, he didn’t want to leave Hometown and didn’t have an interest in college, and so we broke up.

I buckled down, got my business degree, and met Ex (23M) through Sister. She works with him at their publishing company. Ex was always a little cold but he communicated his love through gifts. The biggest gift turned out to be him putting off publishing his first book in order to make sure his own reputation didn’t hurt me as I climbed up the business ladder.

All was fine in my world until last month.

Now, Sister usually visits Hometown for Christmas. I couldn’t for years because I was so busy. This year, however, our roles switched and I ended up going to Hometown.

Now, Hometown has a totally different vibe from City. It has those Hallmark movie vibes with a giant Christmas tree in the center and everything’s cozy and comfy. My parents were super happy to see me again. I was happy to see them too.

Much to my surprise, I ran into CS soon after. He has a job as a lumberjack so he’s super jacked and smells like pine. We started talking and stuff, and I realized that I still had feelings for him- I couldn’t help it! He was the love of my life my entire childhood! He soon admitted that he also had feelings for me. I admit, I got caught up in the feels…

Until Ex showed up.

He came to surprise me for Christmas. He even had a ring. Unfortunately, things didn’t go well. I told him that I had always loved CS, and his response was So our relationship was a lie? He even pointed out the thing with the book, and I pointed out that books weren’t a steady job. He ended up leaving, and I brushed it off. CS was a good distraction.

Until Sister showed up, having called off work to talk to me. Apparently, she was the one to arrange Ex to show up and knew for weeks that he was planning to propose. She told our parents about him and now my parents are freaking out, because they encouraged my reunion with CS. Now I feel bad because… My ex loved me.

So, was I the AITA?

Oc drama as an AITA story! BECAUSE WHY NOT

AITA for telling the weird girl pretty girls have struggles too

I (f16) am considered pretty by almost everyone. I’ve been contacted by modeling agencies and guys always try to ask me out. But it does have it downsides. Like I am insecure about my personality at times and other stuff which will come in hand later. But it does start with this one girl, Margaux (f16), who’s the president of the fashion club. Though she isn’t super pretty by the standards. One thing that does make her stand out is her personality. She is what you would consider a weird girl, rambles about her interests, doesn’t understand sarcasm, and is really blunt at times.

We were talking to each other because our school was about to have a fashion competition. But I was unable to have a conversation because she kept talking about a Japanese rock band. So I told her

“Oh, you’re really interested in that band,” and she replied “yes, couldn’t you tell,”

She seemed a bit mad, because she told me “there’s nothing wrong with being straight forward,”

I replied saying that sometimes people do view me as bitchy if I am blunt, and then i said “you know, being pretty does have it downsides sometimes”

Margaux remained quiet as she continued drawing. She was actually really great at designing these unique type of dresses.

“Sometimes girls doesn’t want to be my friend because they’re jealous of me,”

She replied “sometimes other girls treat me like a pet and just laugh at regular things I do, and then when I point out stuff they act like I’m in the wrong,”

I said “At least people allow you to be yourself.”

She became furious, she snapped at me and told me that being autistic is a tiring and hard. Feeling like the outsider and being forced to act normal. She then asked me if we could swap places, me becoming the average looking weird girl and her becoming the average looking “neurotypical”. I said yes. Because she would probably feel really tired to be in position. She then snapped and said “so you want to be disabled because being pretty is so hard?” And rolled her eyes.

I told her “yeah, being pretty does have some similar struggles to being autistic”

Btw Margaux’s pov coming out soon

Am I the asshole for using the only accessible restroom at the office, when I don't technically need to?

I am a trans person in my twenties who is neurologically & physically disabled. My disabilities are (mostly) invisible and I do not have any mobility aids or bulky access devices, nor do I have any toileting-related disabilities. This is relevant.

In the large office building where I work, each storey has: A women's room with no large accessible stall; a men's room with no large accessible stall; and a single-occupancy all-genders large accessible restroom.

I am visibly trans, regardless of how I dress or whether I wear a mask. I have been verbally harassed in both the women's room and the men's room, and security has been called on me once. HR told me to use the single-occupancy restroom to avoid further "conflicts." However, two of my coworkers on this floor have bulky mobility aids, so they cannot fit into the stalls of the men's room or women's room. Yesterday, one of them ("Pat") was in the lobby waiting for me to exit the single-occupancy restroom so they could use it. When Pat saw that I exited, not our other coworker with a mobility aid, they started to berate me for making them wait on someone who is not disabled. They insisted I use the women's room, and I was too upset to respond, I just walked away.

I don't want to go to HR again, who I think see me as the problem, rather than the bathroom layout being the problem. I don't want to be harassed in a gendered restroom again, but I feel terrible for making Pat wait on the only restroom they can physically access. I don't want to tell Pat and my other coworker with a mobility aid why I use that restroom, because I am afraid they will not be sympathetic to my reasons, since they cannot physically use the other restrooms and I physically can (just at significant risk of harassment and HR complaint).

I already try not to use any restroom at work, since it is causing so many problems with my coworkers. I work on an upper floor, and my badge only lets me into the floor where I work and the ground floor lobby, so I can't get to a different block of restrooms in a reasonable amount of time. My job has good benefits and is not too difficult, so quitting my job over the restroom situation feels extreme. I am trying to be considerate of all of my coworkers, but I am afraid that I am in the wrong anyway.

Would I be the asshole if I keep using the single-occupancy accessible restroom when I need to go?

I'm sorry if this sounds like bait. I am afraid of giving too much detail about where I work. If the mod wants more information I might be able to provide floor plans for my office without compromising my privacy?

What are these acronyms?

Do you think Bruce Wayne would be good at telling his Robins bed time stories when they were kids, or do you think he’ll approach it like the Smosh Reddit stories series?

[joan-deactivated20230204]

weird to me that the culture just seems to have forgotten the number one rule of being online, which is assume everyone is making shit up at all times

The Lokasenna but its just an AITA post from Loki's point of view

imo, dick grayson is the type of person who would post 'am i the asshole' stories on reddit.

AITA for killing my (30s M) closest friend (zombie age?? F) and changing my identity for my safety

I was given the task by an eldritch being to kill one person by the end of the day. This came with a insatiable bloodlust and the threat of my own life. I tried to murder anyone I wasn't really associated with multiple times, but I just couldn't find the right opportunity to get someone.

Here is where I might be TA, I was running out of time and I didn't want to lose my own life. My friend was standing near a hole another friend (5 in dog years? M) made to kill someone else (he was also given the task but killed outside our friend group). I made the dumb decision to try push my friend into the trap (I APOLOGIZED BEFORE DOING IT!) but she was able to escape. I had to hunt her down and kill her before I ran out of time.

Now she apparently has been consumed by a bloodlust even stronger than the one I had, and has been making threats against my life to the point I had to change my name to stay under her radar. I think she is overreacting a bit, but I can't help but to feel a bit bad. AITA?

Edit: I don't know what everyone in the comments is talking about this BigB guy. My name is Terry.

Edit 2: GUYS SHE BURNED DOWN MY HOUSE!!

[tame-a-messenger]

damien liking that tweet... i'll bury myself in the hole now but before i do, i want them to know i love them both and i cherish their friendship so much i hope this won't cause another drought and- (im spiraling)

I mean if the Christmas Event™ is what we got for waiting 48 days, I'm honestly fine for them to charge up whatever the next spirit bomb moment is next lmao

As much as people are feuding rn about Damangela you have to admit it might be one of the funniest misunderstandings to happen at Smosh ever.

Fully removing anything to do with shipping- Damien and Angela's Christmas Event™ and aftermath reads like a Hallmark movie, if you look at it from an outside perspective it just does, and I think that makes it the funniest shit ever (the fact that people are ACTUALLY shipping them though???????? LIKE BRO THE SPICE IS THE FACT THEY ARE BEST BUDDIES! GOOD OLE PALS! NOT ROMANTICALLY INTERESTED! THATS WHAT MAKES IT SO GOOD)

It's an honest to goodness misunderstanding! (that is just really silly)

It obviously (you can't fight me on this, it's just the truth) has undercurrents of being slightly romantic, (it's not helped by how she told it, and the REASON she told it)(not to mention Damien's replies) and obviously cheesy. I'm sure they both know how it sounds.

But I find it funny more than anything else? it makes me want to tease them? like I'm not even getting shipping vibes from it, I just want to pinch their cheeks.

If it were ANY other duo at Smosh people would be finding this funny as fuck like I am (imagine Amangela or quite literally ANYONE ELSE)

People are just being weird about the fact that they're both hetero ig?? Like I'm just looking at it from their perspective and I'd think it was funny as fuck

AITA- for forgetting what a co-worker said at a work Christmas Party because I had too much to drink?

More oc am I the asshole

AITA for telling the popular girl her life isn’t a tragedy

Okay so long story short, I (f16) is stuck with doing a group project with this girl, I will call Jupiter (f16) for privacy reasons. We are opposites, she is this popular really pretty girl who won the local county pageant and all that. She has several friends and was dating the quarterback until he came out as gay last week. (She is still in denial over that however). I’m not super pretty, at least compared to her, I would rate myself a 5/10 with hair, makeup, and outfit on. Also I am not really popular, I have two friends. But I’m the kid who eats lunch in the art classroom while watching anime. I’ve had people who have kept me around just to seem more normal and such. But back to our group project. I started to talk about a visual kei band I like and she went “wow, you must really like them,” i said without thinking “there is nothing wrong with being straight forward you know,”

I added baking soda to the science fair volcano with that one. She started ranting talking about how hard she had it, saying stuff like “sometimes people view me as a bitch if I’m honest,” and “at least people don’t only see you for your looks,” (I’m the only black student at our fancy private school in Washington). One thing that really got to me was when I told her “hey, I’m autistic, I don’t like it when people aren’t straight forward,” and she said

“You know, people at least allow you to be yourself,”

Never in my life had I met someone with less social intelligence than me. So I told her this. Because I had to interact with her family a few times due to the group project. She had photos of her up on the wall while her older sister was ignored, she always had the say in conversations. She owned luxury brands and everything.

“So you, have been raised with your parents giving you everything, you being their golden child, you are naturally social, and pretty, everyone likes you, you dated the hottest guy in our school before he came out, right,?”

She answered

“Yeah, but you see, sometimes,”

I told her everyone struggles sometimes, and her life isn’t a tragedy because I think she keeps overreacting to the smallest things. And now she’s mad and told me she wouldn’t mind swapping places with me.

AITA for seeking validation for my parenting choices by posting to a subreddit with 12 million members about a hyper-specific and personal family situation that centers around my teenage child who has access to the internet and could possibly see this post thus subjecting them to the scrutiny and shame of hundreds if not thousands of commenters?

[very-uncorrect]

Gonna start talking about my original stories through AITA posts in the characters' povs

Some e.g.s:

- AITA for half blinding and causing permanent physical scarring to a young child due to accidentally spilling a deadly acid all over their face (it was for science)

- AITA for murdering any rude customers in my shop (I worked in retail for 8 years)

- WIBTA if I decided to destroy all of humanity because I think they're assholes (I'm a fascist alien dictator)

- AITA for keeping my cat café open when people are dying from hanahaki in the streets (my workers get good pay I promise)

- AITA for abandoning my childhood friend because I wanted eldritch alien dick

- WIBTA if I stopped trying to escape the time loop me and this other girl have been stuck in for months because I want to learn how to code and make crème brulé (she REALLY wants to get out but I also hate her so-)

- AITA for hiring a hitman to kill anyone who is better at making pancakes than me
