Husband Takes To The Socials To Share 25 Hilarious Reasons Why His Wife Has Gotten Mad At Him

“ Chances are, you find this amusing if your relationship is healthy, where you can both laugh things off and make fun of each other’s quirks – yet when you’ve dealt with negative experiences, it makes sense that such content would make you upset.” Okay, but I can only repeat what I always say: “maybe you can laugh off emotional abuse like you live in a performance of Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf, but don’t expect to have children with them who’ll go into life unwounded.

Mom Thinks Her Daughter Should Support Her Financially As She Did For Her As A Child, The Internet Disagrees

THANK YOU! i absolutely loathe the comments saying "well it's a cultural difference so they're not AHs." um, regardless of the reason, it's still not right to raise a child & guilt-trip them into taking care of you just because you took care of them, which is what parents are REQUIRED to do if they choose to have a kid! regardless of "cultural explainations" for the behavior, it still has negative impacts on the kid so there's no excuse for that part of the culture to continue. thank you for breaking the cycle of abuse disguised as cultural differences.

Mom Thinks Her Daughter Should Support Her Financially As She Did For Her As A Child, The Internet Disagrees

I am Asian. This is a bane and a blessing of belonging to an Asian family. Yes, I do send money to my parents because we are raised as retirement funds as kids. As much as I have love for them, I do resent it because of the guilt trip and abuse of this cultural moral obligation. I vowed that with my kids I will break this cycle and I work hard not only to provide for them but also so I will have enough to support myself when I grow older and not to depend on them. I will appreciate their help but it does not always have to be monetary. Just because I have been through it does not mean they have to.

30 Of The Best ‘It Doesn’t Work Like That’ Tales Shared By Representatives Of Different Professions

Having been an electronics repair technician for 45 years, we daily joked that the engineer who poorly designed what we are working on probably never held a screw driver in his life or gave a single thought as to making the product serviceable.

I have worked at a hotel for 8 years now in positions of power at the front desk, reservations and group sales. First, we do not hold rooms out of inventory! When we say we are sold out, we are sold out. We are here to make sure you have an enjoyable stay, but we are a business, why wouldn't we want to sell all possible rooms? First come first served is a real thing. Also, being rude when there is the smallest thing wrong with your stay will not get you a free night. Comping a whole stay is very rare, compensation by discounting your room rate, parking or food is much more common. If you approach me with respect I am more likely to compensate a greater monetary amount than if you're a d**k.

I'm an accountant. No, I don't actually enjoy talking about tax law on my day off, so your "quick tax question" that takes me 30 minutes to explain beyond 'that depends...' is really annoying at a family BBQ.

QA tester here. We find glitches/ bugs all the time. But it is impossible to find every one. But some that get through baffle me.

1. Engineers do not design every cool thing in the world. 2. Most engineers never actually make all that much money. 3. Chances are, if you study engineering you will end up with an insanely boring office job, or an insane high pressure job working 16+ hours a day. 4. Not all engineers are super intelligent, quite a lot are actually below average intelligence.
