the airport story from matt’s perspective got me bamboozled af. It requires a high level of privilege to be this out of touch to not see it as a classist scenario.

[@calicook1041]

Ive never commented before, but………. Regarding the “Am I An Asshole” airport story, if we were looking at the scenario as how it was told, then yes I think the situation was not right and quite classist but I have to say I have a bullshit radar to and I don’t think that a lot of the stuff that she said was true, but at the same time we don’t know so we can’t go off of that. I most definitely do not think that matts perspective was out of touch. If anything all I got from that conversation was Erin screaming over everybody trying to get her point across when it was just a simple debate. Her eye rolling was rediculous. I’m not trying to be a bully whatsoever but I thought Erin was quite rude in that situation especially when she was like “I can literally hear you being upset about this”. Idk like who is she to say that, especially to her friend.

[@alisontorres71]

Mike was the only sane one during the 23 year old step mom story, because HUH ??? A 17 year old girl is not the AH for being upset about the fucked up dynamic she’s being thrown into. It’s weird and confusing and honestly fucking GROSS. Her “step-mom” is 23 years old, and younger than 2 of the siblings. Dad is the AH in this situation and honestly so is the mom for enabling this in the first place. I feel bad for OP and also step-mom and the new baby. So fucking weird🤢

[@jackelyndesigns]

The parents have the right to open up their marriage if that's what they'd like... but forcing their children (15, 17) to also be included in this dynamic is completely unfair. Wait 3 years when they are adults and out of the house, IMO.

[@amesy123]

I’m sorry but as a teacher to 17 year olds, people don’t realize that they are literally children. They act like children, their hormones are crazy, and they have so much pressure on them. To call her an asshole and say “don’t take it out on the baby, take it out on the adults” is extremely unfair to the literal child that is still being raised by those adults. Imo, she has every right to feel uncomfortable and set boundaries w her family. And I guarantee she won’t feel this way towards the baby once she is born and she herself ages and matures. Fully w mike on this one

[@ashleylarkin9399]

Matt being on the wrong side for every single one of these is such a show of character lmao

He is dismissive of the girls feelings, but from an earlier episode he talked about his compulsive lying roommate. So it sounds like he might just be sceptic to any story that he believes might have bs in it. On the other hand Erin told him they just take the story for being truthful so he should have pointed out which version of the stories he believed in clearer.

@@delcarr26 YES!! i was like PLEASE STOP TALKING 😭

[@jr1133]

I think there is maybe an aspect with Matt and the airline story that people are ignoring, and that’s how much he dismissed the poverty element. I don’t know the guy but it’s no secret that he comes from a wealthy background. He only really does sponsorships and podcasts and has never done anything super concrete. I don’t know if he had a scholarship, but he went to a pretty big college, and he even dated Spielberg’s daughter for Christ sake. So I’m not saying that Matt is some egotistical trust fund baby but I think it might just be something he is not able to understand

[@GabrielleCherryy]

@@jr1133 100% honestly a very good point

[@Al-br3fh]

I think that Matt doesn't want to believe that there are horrible people out there, but my guy, there are and people will treat you differently just because you don't have money. He obviously hasn't encountered a situation like this, which is great for him, but it doesn't mean others haven't or that they are automatically lying. Its okay Matt Also, I could definitely see Carly's side about the wedding photos I feel like they glossed over her point of view to quickly.

[@ZaynMalik-sq2li]

They did, and Carly kind of just got shut down unless she throws a fit like Matt. After they shut her down she kind of just seemed sad or something can’t explain and it just didn’t sit right with me. I even thought Mike would have been like I understand her pov but don’t agree with it.

I don’t know why he was so focused on the whole First Class aspect of it. I love ya, Matt, but that was frustrating to listen to. I could not believe that you said the girl was “playing the victim.” Maybe she was stretching the story but you don’t know that with am I the asshole stories; you just have to work with what you got. From what we got, that girl was clearly being discriminated against, and the mom was a bitch.

[@megirving]

For the braces story - personally if I was the bride, I would ask the groom if he’s comfortable with having his braces in the photos because he is a ashamed of them. I think it’s clear in his reaction he’s projecting his shame. I don’t think the bride felt ashamed of her husband or that he was ugly for having braces. I think that was a bit misconstrued because she clearly found him attractive with non perfect teeth so why would she care about braces now? Of course marriage is the most important part of the wedding but you will also have those photos as memories forever and he won’t have braces forever. It will change his appearance in the photos or is that caring too much about looks? I would still leave it completely up to him and say I loved him regardless

Don’t know how it works in America but where im from, when children start going to kindergarten it’s expected that the child is potty trained. The teacher still wipes their but if they don’t know how to do it themselves at the same time they also teach them how to do it. Like Erin said children develop differently, I remember that a 5 year old still wore diapers and I had to change it in the morning and after lunchtime.

[@leximccoy6938]

I just wanted to leave my opinion of the babysitting story. As a current kindergarten teacher with numerous kids barely turning 5 when they started school. I believe that they brother was in the right mindset. She clearly was able to wipe all day until then as well as she will have to have this done within less than a year (if she is not already in high school). The brother, though is a relative, also handled it well, personally, because technically is an "employee" and as an "employee" around kids, there is just some things you cannot do. For instance, I was doing observation hours in college at a daycare and since I am not employee, even though I worked with young kids and cleared numerous background checks, I could not change their diaper and all the kids in that classroom were expected to wipe themselves as the employees couldn't even do that for them (the classroom was toddler-aged, so 18 months to 2.5 years). Also, looking back when I was 18 and babysitting, I wouldn't have thought to check a kids underwear to make sure they wiped properly, even as a girl. Though I understand all of their opinions, from a teacher's standpoint you should not be wiping someone's butt if they are not your own child, period. This doesn't allow them to gain any independence and potentially cause them to struggle in school. Students are expected to be able to do their "everyday task" like zipping up coats, putting papers in their folders, etc. once they enter kindergarten and wiping after using the bathroom is one. Another thing is that most preschools require students to be fully potty-trained, including wiping, before being excepted. Wiping a child's butt is just creating a dependence on you and any adult they will encounter in their life.

As someone who grew up in and around wealthy families, that airport story truly could have happened. Rich people are proper ruthless and can be incredibly rude. I don’t disagree with Matt in full but I also don’t agree because I know firsthand how awful rich people can be. That story sounds like some rich people bullshit. 😂😂

In terms of guests, no more influencers. It's always just the same people cycled through every one of these podcasts.

Erin has such a nice talking voice lol she never studders and just talks so smoothly .. love herrrrr

[@gabriellaorona6396]

MATT IF YOURE READING THIS: you aren’t an asshole for having a diff opinion lol!!! Matt was just trying to say how the situation would be different- totally normal when doing AITA segment 🥲 on Only Friends the girls NORMALLY do that where they’re like “it would be different if the situation was-“ I think it was just hard for Matt to get his point across with them kinda attacking lol

[@mariangelac2051]

the difference is he immediately assumes the OP is lying and dismisses the situation and only focuses on the “if then” scenario that he is narrating, it’s okay to give his opinion on that but he needs to focus on the story as it is written and take it as being the true story

Carly’s “you pull out your phone “what did you say?”” was an underrated joke I even rewinded it to watch it twice

[@patriciavogel490]

This was a fun discussion. Carly....you look fantastic with your hair pulled back. It's very attractive. Everyone was a little hard on Matt, but he had a hard time with just going with the events as they were presented in the posts.....still fun though.

Carly is serving - the orange sweater and hair tie is so cuute! 😍

[@ashleyolson1209]

Lol Erin paints it’s a way and seems like everyone’s okay with that but then Matt starts painting it the way he looks at it and then she’s like but they don’t say that

[@oohmyclumsyheart]

Omfg the last story has me in tears hhahahaha

[@jopping_]

i appreciate matt's confidence to take the unpopular opinion tbh LMAO

[@Conorm-lg7no]

Matt's opinions sound a little crazy at times, but he's so confident discussing them, so I give him props

[@madelinehanley9384]

I don’t think it’s unpopular, I think it’s not relevant. You can’t just add things to the original person’s post, that defeats the whole purpose.
