Part of being a good friend is supporting their artistic endeavors, but does «making» AI music count as an artistic endeavor? We’ve all been in the position where we’ve had to swallow our pride and go to a friend’s a cappella concert we really didn’t want to. That is, if you’re anything like me. Supporting …

23-year-old refuses to pay $20/day to stay in friend’s apartment while she looks for a job, won’t contribute anything to the household: ‘Your friend is the one using you’
When you’re staying with someone, you have to make sure you’re a good houseguest. It’s just the laws of common decency. You would hate it if someone crashed on your couch for weeks on end, interrupting your routine without ever offering to cook you dinner or contribute to groceries. You wouldn’t want someone to do …

Twitch streamer is arrested in Japan following car accident, man laughs at friend’s concern for her wellbeing: ‘[She] claimed I was being misogynistic
It’s never nice to laugh at someone else’s misfortune. We would hate for someone to do that to us, so it’s good practice not to do it ourselves. This is not the way of the internet, though. It seems like at least half of the content we consume is so that we may take delight …

Woman insists on bringing her 70-pound dog on kayaking trip, calls friend ‘controlling’ for trying to shut it down: ‘People need to learn to go places without their pets’
Some people insist on bringing their dogs absolutely everywhere, like how some people insist on bringing their babies everywhere. Both are unnecessary (okay, one a little more than the other) and both are annoying. Sometimes you want to do something that doesn’t involve babies or dogs. And that’s your right to do. But if you …

Chef’s boyfriend’s sister expects to use her restaurant for free for massive party, doesn’t understand why that’s not possible: ‘She assumed I could get the food covered because it’s my workplace’
Some people have sky-high expectations. They can’t help it. They expect the world to bend toward them, and they don’t care how that happens. They just expect that the world will roll out the red carpet for them wherever they go, for nothing in return. But this isn’t how life works. And at a certain …

Houseguest eats everything in friend’s pantry, wife refuses to let him stay again: ‘He finished two jars of jam, a jar of peanut butter, a giant Costco bottle of olive oil, condiments, rice, snacks, cheese, even my husband’s supplements’
There are certain rules of etiquette by which one must abide. It’s not so simple, because there is no universal handbook for these situations. There is just a codified set of rules that you have to intuitively pick up over the course of your life. Maybe your parents teach them to you, or maybe you …

18-year-olds refuse to let their friend dress up as a princess for a Renaissance Faire, claim they can be the only princesses: ‘Your friend is acting like a 5yo at her birthday party’
Remember when you were a kid and you’d fight with your friend over who got to be what Power Ranger? You all wanted to be the pink one, let’s be real. But there is only one pink one. Most of us grow out of this behavior, even if it’s just in less acute ways. You …

‘It felt incredibly insensitive and tacky’: Couple in their late 30s request birthday money from their 30-year-old couple friends every year
Birthdays are important stuff, no matter how old you are. I think it’s kind of sad when adults stop caring about their birthdays. I know that the most «birthday energy» should go toward children since they enjoy it the most, but we shouldn’t gloss over adult birthdays. You’ve earned it. You’ve had more trips around …

Money is a tricky subject, no matter who you are and no matter how much you’re making. Everyone has different relationships, so it’s hard to know where each of us is coming from, and you don’t want to assume. This is especially true when you’re young. When you’re still in school, the access to money …

‘The barista gave me a cookie and said I handled it better than most’: So-called ‘micro-influencer’ tries to kick out paying cafe customer from their window seat for a photoshoot
It seems like everyone is an influencer nowadays. We’ve all seen how seemingly easy it is to go viral, and it’s hard to pass up the chance to make «easy» money by making videos. Of course, it’s not as easy as it looks, but it’s definitely easier than a lot of other jobs. But the …
