NL must sleep like a baby knowing he has correct opinions on everything, many pogs

[@jbt-qu6lm]

Only disagreement is with the sleeping with the kids thing because while that sucks, when the guy says that he "blew up" and it was bad enough that the wife had to spend the night with her parents... Everything NL was saying was right but like that sounds pretty bad

[@termitreter6545]

@@jbt-qu6lm Makes you wonder about the reliablility of the narrator, in both ways: Did he blew up in a bad way? Or is the mother overly protective of her kids? The whole thing seems really weird.

[@Jonksy]

@@jbt-qu6lm You don't disagree about this though? Ryan did make a point that ''blew up'' was a bad sign in regards to the story-teller?

[@TheZedman5000]

@@jbt-qu6lm To make a final verdict, like if my opinion actually mattered at all, I'd need more info on what "blowing up" entails for sure, but the whole situation is so ridiculous and sounds so shitty to be in that I'd get upset for sure. And I don't want to just say "her going to her parents' house for the night isn't as massive a red flag as it would be in most stories like this, because she's on the spectrum", because everyone's different and that statement could be interpreted as downplaying abuse against people on the spectrum, but from my experiences with friends on the spectrum who despise conflict and consider their parents' house to be a safe place to go when overwhelmed, it didn't immediately raise any extra alarms from me. He also could've been horrible and violent, but she came back to him instead of staying with the inlaws, and the inlaws are more critical of his wanting the kids out of the bed than his "blowing up", so I'm inclined to believe he was firmly NTA, as someone whose opinion will never even be read by anyone who asked for it.

[@zeelbeno]

[@coolboyyo654]

i legit didn't see that and sorta just assumed that was the case. I'm on the spectrum and it sounded similar to the kind of stuff i've heard others do before.

[@shiroxyfy4250]

It says later in the post that the boss had a young child who was autistic and passed away. Just a wholesome story. Which was then followed by a number of degenerate posts by some of the worlds worsts.

[@SteamrollerMike7]

This makes sense I was confused why the boss was giving a 20 year old money for ice cream but that explains it and makes the story even more wholesome

[@JohnyScissors]

That boss is a cool dude

Do people actually use old reddit? that looks like a trash 2005 forum. Which I guess is a fair assessment on what reddit is in general.

[@noxus7462]

Two anti-oldReddit comments both mention “2005”,”2008”. Just shows you the old reddit design is way better if you prefer the “Web 1.0” style. With that said, new reddit sucks, and usually all web updated suck and are only done to adapt to phones rather than computers.

[@Rohnoran]

I'm with NL, First read defo NTA. Boss sounds like a nice guy.

[@TheGreatPurpleFerret]

I do wonder if mum was upset because of how boss reacted to the behavior in private and she just didn't want to tell OP that. Maybe boss went off on mum and she passed the her embarassment off as anger at the kid. Maybe boss thought OP was much younger which is why he was given a token amount of money and was disgusted to find out OP was an adult. OP is autistic and I know my parents tend to keep things like that away from my autistic adult brother. Boss could be the asshole here too.

[@stapler1636]

There was no kid in this story, the author is an adult with autism.

[@jessedoof4054]

"Kid" you're talking about an adult male of 20

[@Rohnoran]

Missed that part of the commentary, fair point of information. In the end it sounded like they were able to resolve the issues that made mum upset. Goes to show maybe if we listen a little more or reach out a little we can mend those hurt feelings and understand each other better. Ty!

The story NL tells at the end about the cross country coach reminds me of a Spanish teacher I had in high school. Before we took a test, he gave us a little impromptu speech about how we shouldn't cheat, and that once we were done with the questions and couldn't answer any more of them to just turn the test in. I hadn't studied at all, so the moment he finished passing out the tests, I wrote my name on the blank test and turned it in. The teacher was surprisingly cool about it and thanked me for being honest.

[@logangantner3863]

Almost all of these stories feel very clearly to be either fabricated or embellished so as to make the narrator completely blameless by removing all subtlety or ambiguity (i.e. my parents are disabled and won't be able to travel).

The craziest part of all these is the last guy going to stay with his 3rd cousin in texas. I didnt even know people even knew their 3rd cousins

[@CrisesofSanity]

My suspicion is that the guy in the last story is descended from a culture that greatly values ties between any family members, even extended family. I used to go to school with a lot of Indian kids, and they all seemed to have waaaaaay more cousins than me or any other of my friends--because they were counting second and third cousins and so on, and always hanging out with them and going to religious gatherings with them and stuff. So it would make sense to me if last guy's parents were immigrants from a country with that kind of culture (which maybe also explains why they're so controlling and anti-dating).
