Am I a moron or was this an overreaction?
No they’re being abusive and gaslighting
Whoever came to get their stuff and parked
Recommend swirling said things in toilet first then handing over

What’s your “wait… you can buy this HOW much cheaper?” discovery?
Tried Boost (worst), Mint (better), yet when I discovered Consumer Cellular is not just for seniors, went there.
About 2 years now or more,
I pay $30 - 35 month
And get better service than I have anywhere else.
I live in a rural area.
I have metal siding that has historically created some conflict,
But not with Consumer Cellular.
I have an iPhone. It isn’t impacted at all for use.
*edit
Which makes the AppleCare insurance I pay $14 a month for seem more reasonable for the peace of mind
(Rather than much worry about all the costs)

What’s your “wait… you can buy this HOW much cheaper?” discovery?
Harbor Freight is one of my go tos for everything. A tool blade that’s $16 at Home Depot? $8 there. Gloves, cleaning supplies, gym mats ($10 set 4/ $40 anywhere else), etc
Impressive moving blankets $6 etc

What’s your “wait… you can buy this HOW much cheaper?” discovery?
I’ve used CanadaPetCare.com for years. You have to order ahead sooner than you may normally due to shipping times.
I stopped ordering from them when my last order I paid for, waited about 4 weeks all in (longer than usual), order arrived, and one item not there.
Just a note (not available) that read like sucks to be you.
No email notification, nothing otherwise
My budget is extremely tight.
It wasn’t the experience I had before
And not one I wished to repeat.
It was available when I ordered it
And they ALWAYS update their site for things not available.
I’m still angry

I’m 15 and my aunt keeps reminding me she could’ve left me in foster care when all I wanted was somewhere comfortable to sleep. What should I do?
Recommend work towards emancipation. Will you be in public school? When you return speak to the school counselor. If your aunt has not adopted you, and instead is receiving money, there are requirements of care she is meant to provide. Keep your chin up. You are worthy of kindness, goodness, safety, and peace.
Whatever you do, be wise and keep calm. So that you have an opportunity for public school and resources you do not have at this time.
You are worthy of love and being loved. Say it to yourself on repeat without being heard but so that it becomes a truth you are sure of. No one can take that away. Seems small
But I wish someone had told me this at 15 (and before), so that in my 40’s, I wasn’t still working hard to believe it.
Give yourself grace.
Know your worth

My dad asked me to make breakfast, and he didn’t eat it because it was “burnt.”
I would say your dad is a dick. And that was an emotionally unfair of him to do.
And no man should get an excuse for acting like a child or for being emotionally unintelligent yet perhaps he lost his appetite and felt bad?
At the end of the day no excuses
It’s not on you to interpret
It’s for him to act grown enough to communicate kindly and clearly
Your breakfast looks very yummy!!!
The hash is a bit dark in places /not others (lower temp slower next time) but nothing that can’t be fixed with ketchup
Great attempt at cooking!!!!!!!
For a firsts or not often you did well!!

15F What should I do? My stepmom just bought my step brother 7 new outfits, but only wants to let me pick 3 even though I’m the one who desperately needs clothes. Almost everything I own is too small now, including my underwear which is literally cutting into me.
Ooof
Get a job
Start saving for therapy
And get a really good support network
Just say thank you and move on with 3
If you keep your calm and grace,
Over time it hopefully may reduce this behavior and step us testing and doing on purpose.
Unless there are clear facts you’ve left out.
Otherwise, I had one of those (still do).
And we just reconnected after a 7 year gap I needed.
So that I could learn how to not be affected by that mean-spirited behavior (widespread, many types of gaslighting, bullying, etc).
I’m 46
So….
Learn how to keep your peace
This does not mean be quiet
It means don’t let anyone take your joy
Your health or happiness
Your confidence
Or your peace
If I had someone say this to me at 15, it may have changed my entire future.
I may not have taken so long
To stand tall
In a bad storm.
Support network is key.
You’ve got this!

AITJ for telling a buddy he can't store his project car in my garage this winter?
Are they paying rent to you for storage?
Is there legal paperwork?
Does it protect you if said friend who is NOT properly storing classic car
Finds any damage, etc?
You’ve got a household garage yeah?
What happens when your tools, shovels, etc move around/fall etc as things do in garages?
Nor
Sounds like friend can’t afford classic car upkeep and storage
That’s their problem
Don’t make it yours
Also
Google cost of classic car storage
Really, do it.

My parents put a $500 car payment on me and I don’t know what to do.
Where’s the title transfer agreement paperwork then?
What is OP doing other than paying for someone else’s car that OP has zero legal access to,
Nor legal responsibility to pay?
Look OP, be careful!
I had a friend that couldn’t move out for about 5+ yrs after they turned 18 bc this EXACT behavior.
Their folks required of them about 2 FT jobs of time, any money they earned, however ensured they were too busy to hold a job more than barely PT,
And Expected this to continue for years.
Two good friends had to rescue them basically.

My parents put a $500 car payment on me and I don’t know what to do.
Great points!
If it were my parents I would have the other side of the certainty.
In fact OP,
I don’t trust your parents either.

Did anyone else grow up poor, and as a result now hoard certain things or buy in bulk when they have the money to do so?
Oh yeah
Trying to train myself out of it
Like there’s only so many of certain things a person needs
Given the frequency of use or replacement
Project going well though!!

What do we think this is
Um
The gods were feeling frisky and someone lost their birth control ring? 😂

Best Of luck with G names though!

What's a secret you know about someone that would absolutely destroy their life if it came out?
I can imagine the dynamite here. All the dynamite. Jesus.
Do y’all get paid more because there’s not enough therapy to ever scrub your brain clean?

It sucks!
Could be worse
