Starting point is 00:00:21 casino. Gambling problem? Call 1-866-531-2600. Visit connexontario.ca Welcome to r slash am i the butthole where OP refuses to hand over a winning lottery ticket. Am I the butthole for forcing my son to give me half of his income? I won the lottery. A thousand dollars a day for life.
Starting point is 00:00:41 Wow, that's 365k a year. Geez. I'm 58. My son is 19. I went to my son and told him that I wanted to make a deal. I would give him the ticket. In return, he would give me half the money until I die. Then he gets all the money. He said he needed to think about it. He came back and said that it wasn't really fair for me to want half. He said that I could live another 40 years. Then he might need the money more and that I should only take 20 percent. I said I would think about it. I signed the ticket and claimed the lump sum. I am seeing a lawyer to figure out how to set up my son for life. His education will be paid for.
Starting point is 00:01:23 When he gets older, he'll be able to purchase a home for free, basically. A trust fund will be set up so that he gets a good amount of money for the rest of his life. Now he's pissed that I went back on my offer. I thought that I was being smart, but I didn't realize how greedy he was. He also told my ex about the money and she's pissed that I'm not giving her anything. We've been divorced for years. I owe her nothing. No, I won't give you any of my money either. There's a reason I'm using a throwaway. Wow. Wow! I read, jeez, I read a lot of stories about real idiots. There are whole subreddits devoted to dumb morons.
Starting point is 00:02:07 idiot. There are whole subreddits devoted to dumb morons. This guy, OP? Not OP, but your son, is one of the dumbest I've ever come across. This guy just got offered a hundred and eighty thousand dollars a year to do nothing! Squat! Zilch! All he has to do is say, sure thing dad, that's so nice of you. I really appreciate you setting me up for the rest of my life, especially since I'm 19. I've got like probably 60-70 years ahead of you. I really appreciate you setting me up for the rest of my life, especially since I'm 19. I've got like probably 60, 70 years ahead of me. That would completely change my life. Thank you, dad.
Starting point is 00:02:31 And then he's like, nah, here's a counter offer. What if I get all the money and you can go f*** yourself? Yo, what an idiot. What a du- Oh my God, this guy's dumb. Man, this might sound dark, but I almost have to wonder if OP is doing his son a favor by NOT giving him the money. Because a guy this stupid with $180k a year for free would probably
Starting point is 00:02:52 just, I don't know, get addicted to meth, blow it all, gambling, ruin his life, take the fast track, ruin his life some way or another. So, man, yo, guys, I'm frustrated. This is such a life changing amount of money for so many people. And this guy just flushed it down the toilet. Makes you want to strangle the guy, doesn't it? OP, you get zero out of five buttholes. I'm giving your son, man, I guess two out of five buttholes. It's not that he's evil. He's just dumb.
Starting point is 00:03:21 I'm giving him five out of five on the dipshit scale for real. Am I the butthole for telling my mom to never touch my stuff again after she lost my Louis Vuitton bag? So I'm a 15 year old woman and I've always wanted a Louis Vuitton purse. I've always wanted something expensive as my own as all of my things are hand-me-downs from my older sisters as we're not the richest of people. Eventually, I decided that if I wanted my purse, I'd get it myself. So I got a job at a local restaurant and started to save up my money.
Starting point is 00:03:53 While I worked, I looked at purses and decided that I liked a little bag. It was expensive, but after a few months, I had the money. I quickly went and bought my bag. I didn't even let my family touch it when I got home. I didn't even wear it for the first week as I was too scared to damage it in any way. One day after school I came back home and went into my room to look at my bag but when I got there my bag was gone from its place on my desk. I looked around my room to see if I had moved it and just forgot it but I couldn't find it. I went out and I asked my sisters but they said they hadn't
Starting point is 00:04:29 touched it so I went and I found my mom. I asked her if she had seen my bag and she said that she showed it to her friend and her friend had liked it and asked if she could borrow it. My mom had said yes but I hadn't even used it yet. So to say the least, I was not pleased by this news. I blew up at my mom telling her not to touch my stuff. And she said that her friend would be okay with it and that I was being dramatic. I got grounded? What? And I was told to stay in my room since I was acting like a child over a bag. The next day day I asked my mom about the bag and she got an uncomfortable look on her face. Instantly I knew something was wrong.
Starting point is 00:05:12 She wouldn't say anything. But after a while she finally admitted that her friend had lost the bag and she didn't plan on replacing it. I was furious! I exploded at her saying that she and her friends shouldn't have touched it in the first place and to never touch my things again. I also said some other hurtful things that I don't care to repeat. I ended up making her cry and my sisters are calling me a butthole because it's just a bag and I was being dramatic. So am I the butthole? Alright, okay, I'm so relieved. Down in the comments,
Starting point is 00:05:46 the top post says exactly what I was thinking. Dude, your mom sold your bag. And then even worse than that, after you called her out on it, she grounded you for it. What? OP, I would literally file a police report. Because even if the story is true, even if your friend borrowed the bag, she's still liable. You can sue your mom's friend in small claims court. So I have a feeling that as soon as you file a police report or as soon as you try to file a claim against this mystery friend, your mom will suddenly come clean and, oh I feel so bad, so here's the money, blah blah blah. OP, you get zero out of five buttholes. I'm giving your scummy mom three out of five buttholes. Am I the butthole for telling my dad that he's crazy if he thinks I'm going to his house during
Starting point is 00:06:35 the week just to make food for his stepkids? My parents are divorced. I'm a 16-year-old guy, and I now live with my mom and visit my dad every other weekend. This change happened about a year ago. The judge won't allow me to stop going to my dad on those weekends, but I wish I could. I have a younger brother who's 14 and a younger sister who's 11. My dad remarried and he has a 10 year old stepson and a 7 year old stepdaughter. He asked me a couple of weeks ago to come to his house after school and make food for his kids before I went home.
Starting point is 00:07:08 He asked me this because he found out that I sometimes make food for my siblings when mom works. He asked me about it the next weekend that I was over there. He wanted to know why I never did that at his house. I said, I just don't. He told me that I could have made food for all four kids. I told him, no, that was not happening. He asked why and I said because I don't mind making something for me and my siblings, but I'm not making food for just anyone. He told me that his stepkids are
Starting point is 00:07:38 my siblings too, just not by blood. And I told him they are not my siblings and I never said that they were. Then two weeks ago, he asked me to go and cook for his stepkids after school. This is during weeks that my siblings are home with me and mom and my step siblings are home with him. I told him no and that made my weekend super annoying. My mom told him to leave me alone. I'm a kid and I already chose not to keep 50-50 custody, so he should want to cherish the time that he has with me. He told my mom to shut up.
Starting point is 00:08:11 I did not do what he asked. He then mentioned it to me on Sunday and that's when I told him that he's crazy if he thinks that I'm going to go to his house for the week just to make food for my step siblings. He told me that if I can do it for my siblings, I can do it for them. I told him, I love my siblings, that's why I do it. Then it was like he just focused on me calling him crazy and he said it's not crazy to expect family to treat each other the same and how I'm showing blatant favoritism to my blood siblings and not my siblings through marriage.
Starting point is 00:08:44 He told me it's cruel to be so blunt about it. Yo your step siblings are 7 and 10. Can they not open a bag of chips by themselves? Can they not make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich by themselves? Why do they need you for that? OP I'm starting to get a sense for why you wish you didn't have to go to your dad's place. I'm giving you 0 out of 5 buttholes. I'm giving your dad 1 out of 5 buttholes.
Starting point is 00:09:08 Am I the butthole for letting you know that I'm divorcing you by sending you a thread on the website that you used to ignore me? Hi Stefan, maybe you'll finally listen. And if you're wondering if you can just speed home and stop me from doing this and leaving, it's too late. I'm sending you this after I've already loaded everything in the car and left. Don't worry, I spoke with our landlords and took my name off the lease. I've set up a direct deposit for the next
Starting point is 00:09:33 month's rent. After that, you're on your own, buddy. I guess you're wondering why. I'm guessing you'll act like you're completely blindsided, right? Because you've done absolutely nothing wrong and you're a great husband and father to be, aren't you? Well, buddy, let me break it down for you in a language you understand. I, a 29 year old woman, have been married to my husband, a 35 year old guy, for 5 years, and we've been together for nearly 10. On paper everything seemed fine, but in reality, our marriage has been anything but. I've reached my breaking point, and I need to know if I'm the one in the wrong here. From the beginning, my mother-in-law has been a nightmare. She made everything about her from
Starting point is 00:10:17 day one. At our wedding, she wore white, claiming it was a family tradition. It wasn't. She constantly criticizes me, from my cooking to my appearance. I'll never forget the time that she called me fat at a family gathering, right in front of everyone. And what did my husband do? Nothing! Not a single word to defend me. It didn't stop there. She accidentally destroyed my belongings, including my grandmother's necklace, which she threw out because it looked like cheap costume jewelry. She's gone out of her way to make me feel small and unwelcome in my own home. But every time I try to talk to my husband about it, he'd brush it off saying that
Starting point is 00:10:57 I was overreacting or being too emotional. And then there's my husband, who's always on Reddit constantly giving strangers relationship advice, which is laughable considering how he treats me. He spends more time rating women's boobs on Reddit than talking to me. Literally. And just so you know, the last pair he rated weren't a 4 out of 10, they were a 10 out of 10. Yeah, he's got plenty of time to do that, but can't be bothered to remember
Starting point is 00:11:25 anything about my life. He'll forget my birthday or anniversary, even simple things like what I'm working on or what's important to me. But he has a perfect memory for his work schedule and things that matter to him. When we fight, he becomes incredibly hostile and always throws in a sarcastic buddy at the end of a sentence. Like I'm some acquaintance that he can barely tolerate. And he never cleans. The house, the dishes, laundry, you name it. It's all on me.
Starting point is 00:11:54 It's like he thinks being an adult is optional as long as he's got his job and his reddit account. The final straw came a few weeks ago. I'm five months pregnant with our first child, a daughter. My mother-in-law started making comments about how she'll have to whip the girl into shape and how she'll raise her to be tough because I'm too soft. When I told my husband that I didn't want his mother to have too much influence on our daughter, especially with the way that she treats me, he just laughed it off, saying
Starting point is 00:12:23 that his mother means well and that I was overthinking it. But the moment that truly broke me was when we were talking about future childcare and my husband suggested that his mother should watch our daughter while we work. I told him that I wasn't comfortable with that, especially considering how his mother treats me, and he snapped. He called me paranoid and said that I should get over it because his mother treats me. And he snapped. He called me paranoid and said that I should get over it because his mother was going to be a big part of our daughter's life whether I
Starting point is 00:12:50 liked it or not. This is the same woman who believes corporal punishment is okay. I've seen her hit my husband's nephew for the smallest thing and no one does anything about it. It's like they're all living in some kind of cult and I'm finally waking up to the reality of what's going on. If my husband won't stand up for me, how could I expect him to stand up for our child? I started to fear for what kind of environment our daughter would grow up in. A place where she might be belittled or bullied by her own grandmother with a father who wouldn't do anything to stop it. Oh, and did I mention that he missed our first ultrasound? His mother needed him to help her with something urgent.
Starting point is 00:13:29 It turned out to be fixing her wifi. WIFI! He chose that over seeing our daughter for the first time. That told me everything I needed to know about where I stand in his life. So I packed up and left. I'm done living like this. Oh, and in case you're wondering, I've already contacted a lawyer. You can't scare me into complying anymore because I have all those texts. You know exactly which ones I'm talking about. So, Stefan, I wish you all the
Starting point is 00:14:00 best in your future marriage, with your mother and the women of Reddit whose boobs you don't even deserve. So am I the butthole for leaving my husband after he neglected me for years, let his mother mistreat me and made me fear for our future daughter's safety? Then OP posted an update. Stefan has seen this post. He's mad that apparently one of you found him based on the rate my boobs thing. He's deleted his account. Also, I want to clarify that I left out any actual incriminating information that could lead to doxing him. Well, what I want to know is, has Stefan's mommy seen this post? Mom, look at what my wife wrote about me. She's so mean. Oh, I know, sweetie. Come here and suckle on mommy's 10 out
Starting point is 00:14:46 of 10 boobies oh V I'm giving you zero out of five buttholes I'm giving your husband and your mother-in-law 3.5 out of 5 buttholes am I the butthole for telling my sister that her baby's name sounds like a dog's name and now she won't talk to me my sister had a baby I'm happy for her her baby's name and now she won't talk to me. My sister had a baby. I'm happy for her. Her baby's name is Ruff. R-U-F-F. It sounds like a dog. I thought that she was joking and I laughed, but I was wrong. I'm sorry. Okay. She asked me why I was laughing. I said it sounded like a dog barking. Ruff ruff. I thought we were laughing, but she got mad. She was angry. She said that I was being disrespectful and that that name had
Starting point is 00:15:32 meaning to her and her husband. They love an obscure video game character. I told her she can name her kid whatever she wants, but people will associate it and it might be hard for him in school. She won't return my texts or calls. My mom says that I should have kept my mouth shut Am I the only one seeing this? I don't mean to be a jerk but rough Ruff I can't be the only one who thinks this could backfire So I told my sister that her baby's name sounds like a dog's name. Is she overreacting? Technically OP it doesn't sound like a dog's name. It sounds like aacting? Technically OP, it doesn't sound like a dog's name. It sounds like a dog noise.
Starting point is 00:16:08 You know, Ruff Ruff, Bow Wow, Growl. I like that. Man, I knew the comments were going to be good. Select Anxiety says, I'm already cringing at the jokes that will be coming once he's older. Hi, my name's Ruff. Oh, is that because your parents were doing it doggy style when you were conceived? And then beneath that someone says, along with a rousing chorus of, who let the dogs
Starting point is 00:16:36 out? OP, you get zero out of five buttholes. I'm giving your sister and her sister's husband one out of five buttholes.
