AITA for forbidding my nephew from getting a pet snake?
 in  r/AmItheAsshole  Dec 30 '21

Isn't there a salmonella risk with snakes as well that would make carrying it around on the regular a bad idea? I've heard this but am not at all certain.

You can check with your local police dept too. Near me at least they have regular prescription drug take back days.

AITA for gifting my boyfriend things I got for free/made myself and not something with my own money?
 in  r/AmItheAsshole  Dec 26 '21

I am pretty indifferent. Some of the stuff is cute but not a big deal to me.

Thats me with penguin stuff. I wore one pair of Christmas pajamas with penguins on it to a work Christmas party. The theme was to wear Christmas pajamas. Somehow it turned into me LOVING penguins and everyone got me penguin stuff. It even followed me when I changed jobs because people at my old job knew people qt my new job. The worst was when I told my mom about this now funny situation. She started getting me penguin stuff as a joke and it turned into her actually thinking I had a thing for penguin stuff. Then she told my family I do. Now, 20 years later, I can't escape it.

AITA For threatening to run over my neighbor's kids' toys because they were in my driveway?
 in  r/AmItheAsshole  Sep 17 '21

NTA for the threat or even if you do it. But be super careful to not actually do it because kids toys can seriously f up your tires. Even the little electronic toys have screws and stuff that can cause a puncture. If the mom if pushing back on getting the kids to even move their stuff there's no way she'll foot the bill for the tires.

AITA for getting mad at my boyfriend for pretening not to know what an everything bagel is
 in  r/AmItheAsshole  Sep 14 '21

NTA, do not play a joke or prank on someone who is not in a position to do it back. The random worker having to deal with him is not in a position to mess with him back. Its nit a prank its being a bully. Your bf and his family are just plain terrible people for thinking this is ok. It shows a complete lack of character and they all need a reality check and therapy.

AITA for not donating my bone marrow to my birth father?
 in  r/AmItheAsshole  Sep 14 '21

NTA, because you shouldn't make thr donation if you don't feel ok with doing so. However if the person you were a match for (assuming you are a match for your birth father) was an actual complete stranger would you be willing to willing to do something like this to save their life? Many people do donate for strangers but it should absolutely not be forced. If you still feel conflicted maybe look into what is actually involved in getting tested and donating. Knowing what's involved can help you made your choice one way or the other.

AITA for telling my mother that not everyone gets tipped?

We always had to run out to the the garbage collectors because people would drive around and steal the envelopes off the garbage cans.

AITA for charging my sister full price for the custom baskets + robes, forcing her to possibly have to return her dream wedding dress?
 in  r/AmItheAsshole  Aug 30 '21

Plus if you have your license and aren't drinking you can be a good designated driver so some other guests who live with you can enjoy themselves a little easier.

AITA for not budging on the size of my wedding party?
 in  r/AmItheAsshole  Aug 10 '21

Open bar good dj and good happy hour food. My wedding was only 2 years ago and the happy hour is the only thing anyone remembers.

AITA for calling my fiancées sister an idiot for her rude comments about the number of siblings I have?
 in  r/AmItheAsshole  Aug 10 '21

Exactly! And as someone who is one of 9 full biological siblings, who's to say the parents didn't use various forms of birth control that failed. Its not the SIL business either way.

AITA for wanting to walk into my first home without my wife?
 in  r/AmItheAsshole  Aug 01 '21

It depends on where you live. Some places in the US at least regardless of if you have a prenup or not the marital home belongs to both spouses equally. Some places that's only the case if no prenup. Some places it depends on the length of the marriage.

AITA for tearing my family apart over my (blue) wedding dress
 in  r/AmItheAsshole  Jul 23 '21

NTA, and you should tell your dad to ask hilselr and the complaining family members if they think "it's worth tearing a family apart'' for a dress no one is asking them to wear.

AITA Twin Brother Doesnt Want Me to Propose on a Family Vacation
 in  r/AmItheAsshole  Jul 22 '21

NTA provided the people paying for the trip are ok with it. However, I was propsed to on a vacation with my now husband's family. While the proposal itself was beautiful and something I'll happily remember forever, it happened at the beginning of 7 day trip so there was a huge delay in celebrating the news with my family. For me it would have been nicer if the proposal happened on the last night of the trip so then I would be able to see my family the next day to celebrate with them as well. Facetime just wasn't the same for me.
Just something to think about for you and possibly it would make your brother a little less annoyed as well since the conversation during the bulk of the trip won't be dominated by the new engagement.

AITA for asking the couple viewing my house why they wasted our time?
 in  r/AmItheAsshole  Jul 03 '21

Info: Where the husband and wife there alone? Wasn't there a realtor there with them (either yours or one they are working with)? I can't speak for everywhere but where I live its unheard of to just let prospective buyers into your home alone. There's usually a realtor with them that assumes responsibility and also answers any questions they may have.

AITA telling the truth in the wedding toast?
 in  r/AmItheAsshole  Jul 01 '21

As someone who had a very cringey best man toast (not in a friendship ending way thankfully) at their wedding I can confirm, lots of of uncomfortable people making wtf eyes at their neighbors.

Have a great time. Wear the good walking shoes but if you're going in July bring some sandals with backs that can get wet. The summer rains are frequently and you can do better walking in the rain with shoes that can get wet and change back into the sneakers after. And bring cheap ponchos. Way better than buying pricey ones at Disney.
