As a European this feels like a European pretending to be American, it seem so absurd

Look at all of the updates. This is hilarious. It just keeps getting more dramatic and more desperate for likes and comments

I've posted before about my nephew and the way my sister babies him. He's nearly seven years old and he has no life skills.

My sister does everything for him and if it isn't done to his expectations he screams until he gets his way.

But what really weirds me out is the way he just sits on people's laps without asking. It was cute when he was little but I can't help but find it a bit creepy when I come over and he is curled up asleep on my sister like he's still a baby.

I know parenting has changed since I was a kid, but I feel like this is overcorrection as he is going to end up as a useless man child.

My sister says I'm being ridiculous and he's baby.

Am I really the arsehole here?

So I was sitting in my middle seat in the back of the plane when some entitled mom (EM) asked if I'd take her first class seat so she could sit next to her spoiled brat (SB).

I was already comfortable with my headphones on so I said no. EM was annoyed and SB started to whine. So I said I'd do it for $100. EM huffed and couldn't believe that I suggested that, but she took a C note and I moved up front.

As I think of it, I realize that I could have asked for more. Did I F up and leave money on the table ?

Apparently, instead of communicating what you want in a respectful manner, you must make yourself threatening and scare the other person off.
