having quite an ugly convo rn with some friends by telling me I lost my "gold star lesbian" status because I slept with a trans woman awhile back

if you're trying to get into the head of your story's antagonist, try writing an "Am I the Asshole" reddit post from their perspective, explaining their problems and their plans for solving them. Let the voice and logic come through.

Okay. Am I the asshole if I call out my roommate's self-centered behavior? I live in a communal space, where everybody except C shares freely. C got a good job through connections and is able to spend freely on themselves, spending little on household items, groceries, etc. They say they're broke every month, but I've seen their takeout containers and amazon boxes, so maybe it's a spending problem. Worst of all, when we are low on food, C just disappears for a few hours and comes back instead of cooking with everyone.

I've told C that they're being selfish and they should start considering other people, but it goes in one ear and out the other. I offered to help budget but they don't listen! They barely spend more than $400 of their $2000 a month on groceries for the house; the rest goes to their lavish lifestyle while the rest of us suffer. I just want them to pay their fair share. AITA for asking them to be fair??

aita is so funny the way people will be like “throwaway/anon cuz other person uses this website” and then just go on to describe hyper specific scenarios that would be unmistakable to the people involved.

The Goyim are fucking wild, the way I would have dumped that casserole over that woman's head, also divorce that wife.

OP really buried the lede with this one

[incorrectbatfam]

So I (24F) just moved to Gotham and something kept knocking against my fire escape so I removed it entirely. Then last night I heard a yell and two minutes later Batman came knocking at the door asking if I could put it back because it's "obstructing justice" or whatever but I really don't wanna.

Am I [440M] the a**hole for leaving my young wife [26F] (okay, so we're not technically married, but I technically don't exist in the country, so we couldn't marry anyway) and our young sons [5M and 4M] in our rural town in order to travel the country and foil the evil plans of my clone/twin/son/thing [420M] and his spawn/children/things [350+M, 250F, 200M, 175M, 160+M, 160M, 50M]?

My clone/twin/son/thing wants to commit genocide and become God, and he already did that once before - killing everyone I knew and loved - and I really don't want him to do that again.

But then I came back to a dead wife, arsonist sons, the elder of whom hates me, the younger now a suit of armor, both of whom committed the Ultimate Taboo, and the swing I fixed before I left is just ash. I didn't bring them with me because I didn't think it would take so long, and I didn't expect anyone to die.

AITA for just existing and collecting books?

AITA for getting shot by lightning?

So I (17M) and a group of friends (13M Aang), (13F Toph), (17M Sokka), and (15F Katara) went to war against my tyrannical father in order to save the world from dictatorship. We split into three groups and Katara and I were sent to fight my somewhat tyrannical sister. She challenged me to an Agni Kai which resulted in her throwing lightning at Katara. When I noticed, without thinking, I jumped in front of it to save her. Long story short, I almost died but Katara beat my sister and healed me👍. After Aang beat my father and took away his bending for good, I guess he kind of assumed Katara would date him? Anyways, I guess I cast some sort of love spell (?) when I risked my life to save hers without thinking and she said that she liked me and not him in front of our whole friend group. So he got a little pissed and upset because she was supposed to be his “forever girl” (if someone could let me know what that means too that would be great) and then got pissed at me and said I forced her to fall for me. I was just trying to save her life. Now I feel kind of bad because I took away the romance I guess they had. I mean, I’ll admit that I like her too but I never tried to push it on her! Can someone help me understand this mess? Am I the asshole?

Am I An Asshole For Killing Myself?

Hi.

I'm uh... 28M and just recently some pretty big changes in my life have happened. This webnovel I really like ended, I made some new friends, and oh, the apocalypse started. but most of that's not really important. well except for the new friends

they're great! don't get me wrong I love them so terribly much

The only problem is I just came back from a recent near death experience and by near death I mean full death. i died.

and anyway, i was pretty okay dokay when I came back to life, but everyone seemed really mad when they saw me again??? Like that's so strange tbh I know I technically DID die, but I didn't like FOR REAL die, i only died for like a little bit

and like none of them seemed to really understand my side of the story? I felt really oppressed by the whole situation, but maybe that had to do more with the drugging and being tied up part.

but don't worry! they've done this before without my consent so it's like for sure for sure completely normal, and like the last time they did it I didn't even die I just disappeared off the face of the earth for two years leaving them all to grapple with my loss and various other such pains, so really this is all an over reaction

anyway, what do you guys think? AITA?

AITA for lying to my dog about food being 'spicy?'

A while back I taught my dog what spicy foods are (by letting her sniff them and saying "Uh oh! Spicy!") and she figured out that it means it'll smell/taste bad and she immediately loses interest. It was initially an accident but it became really handy in getting her to leave food alone if it might hurt her.

Recently though I've started saying "Uh oh! Spicy!" about any food I don't want her to eat. If she's sitting and staring at me eating a regular non-spicy snack and I don't want to share, I'll tell her it's spicy so she'll stop begging for it. She believes me 100% of the time. She does have a 'leave it' command that she obeys as well, but she always acts so sad whenever I tell her to 'leave it' and it's something she wants.

I feel a little bad because she's an older dog (10y/o) and maybe I SHOULD be sharing my snacks with her, but sometimes a man's gotta enjoy his food in peace without a little creature gazing longingly at him the entire time and crying like the world's soggiest beast.

Included is a picture of her making her very best begging face so that everyone can accurately judge how evil I am for lying to her.

What are these acronyms?
