I was hit by a car on my bike today, and after 27 years I now have a tiny fracture on the tip of my finger. While the rest of my body remains untarnished, I have still failed you, my brothers
AITA for not taking full responsibility for the broken glass in the disposall?
This is a petty sibling squabble, not some super dramatic thing, but I could really use some opinions on this.
So I made a bunch of skin-on chicken thighs and needed to pour the fat from the pan into something so as not to pour it down the drain (I have since been told about just using aluminum foil, but I didn't think about it then). All of the bowls were dirty in the dishwasher, so I grabbed a shot glass and poured the fat in there, then did all of the dishes, but left the fat in the shot glass on the counter to cool off and harden, planning on tossing it in the trash later.
I live together with my brother, and after I left the glass, but not long enough after for the fat to have solidified, he moved the glass from the counter to the sink, not realizing it was fat, and then left the glass in the sink with the other dishes he had put there.
If I had walked out of my room and seen the shot glass still on the counter where I had left it to cool, I would definitely have remembered to clean it, but since it was no longer there, it slipped my mind and I didn't notice it in the sink with a couple of his other dishes. And that's if it was ever even there for me to see, as some time between when he put it in the sink and a day or two later, apparently it had fallen into the drain, and when my brother went and used the disposall, it broke the glass. Now there's glass in the disposall.
My brother is saying that this is 100% my fault for having left the glass on the counter and subsequently left it in the sink (though I didn't put it there and had no idea it was in there...) and that I need to figure out what to do and fix it completely on my own, as it is not his fault whatsoever.
Yeah, I was the one who took out and used the glass, but I neither put it in the sink nor turned on the disposall without first checking for anything that fell in, so in my opinion it is at the very least our equal responsibility, if not more on him than me. When I say this, he freaks out, again saying that it is entirely my fault for having left the glass on the counter, and that I am an asshole and am "refusing to take responsibility for what I did."
Like, when I looked up a solution and found that we can pour ice in the sink and run the disposall, I said "so tomorrow we go buy a bag of ice," he said "no, tomorrow you go buy a bag of ice." Again going ballistic when I try to bring up his portion of the responsibility.
He is a very "my opinion on any given topic is objective" type of guy and often literally can't seem to comprehend that his thoughts on any given situation are just as much subjective opinion as everyone else's, therefore concluding that he is right and everyone else (read: me) is wrong and stupid. This might just be one of those situations, but I kind of want some third-party opinions on whether I am actually being an asshole by saying he at the very least shares the blame if not is mostly responsible. AITA?
I am just getting back into Magic in the last few months and have been getting into commander. All of my decks are based off of precons I have bought and made swaps/upgrades for.
I want to try some fun decks and fun commanders that I haven't seen/played with before. I've only ever played in bracket 2 and 3, so I'll probably prioritize checking decks in that range, but please feel free to drop whatever your personal favorite most fun deck is!
I'm not talking about annoying because it is high level and kills you quickly, or it's just too consistent, or it goes wide too much, or because it should have been played in a higher bracket, etc.
I'm talking about just so goddamn annoying.
I'll go first
I played bracket 2 game against a Sally Sparrow deck centered around recursion and cloning. I swear I got aven interrupted like 20 times. Like we'd try to take out Sally, aven interrupt. Board wipe? Linvala, indestructible. Then we'd try again the next round, bounce, recur, bounce, recur, counter, indestructible, hex proof. Plus everything we played under 4 mana got skyclave apparitioned. When we finally got them to a point where their Susan was dead and they looked tapped out (though they had 3 copies of a dragon making everything 1 cheaper each), turns out we were blind because they had 1 blue mana free and when we swung at them they returned all creatures to opponents hand.
After 4 hours I had to go to sleep. I couldn't take it anymore.
