‘If you don’t keep an eye on her, she will get into the kitchen’: Woman spoils 40 pounds of tomatoes, gets banned from her SIL’s house

Tomatoes: what can’t they do? They’re the perfect food for making a BLT on a hot summer day. And for those cold winter nights, you can do what this chef did, and cook up a big pot of sauce . This person apparently also goes big or goes home, because she decided to cook up 40 pounds of tomatoes in one sitting. That’s well over 100 tomatoes—her recipe could’ve had 120 tomatoes or more, depending on their size. If you’re an experienced chef, making meals in huge batches is a great way to save time…

‘[Don’t] even look in my general direction’: Entitled sister-in-law enforces petty rules after couple moves in, malicious compliance ensues

It’s remarkable how immature fully grown adults can be when they are forced to share space. What’s even more remarkable is that none of the three adults in this scenario can afford their own places. Our condolences to the poor parents who have to hear all this squabbling from these literal children who refuse to grow up. This thread was posted to Reddit’s r/MaliciousCompliance subreddit by u/KingQuenchie , who never seemed to get along with their future sister-in-law. Matters were made worse wh…

'He's not your son!': Sister-in-law decides to name her unborn nephew behind the mother's back, family fallout ensues right before Christmas

'He's not your son!': Sister-in-law decides to name her unborn nephew behind the mother's back, family fallout ensues right before Christmas

With every holiday season comes the struggle of spending too much time with your family. Even worse is having to spend too much time with your in-laws. I don't know what it is about in-laws that creates such a universal bad feeling so many people can relate to. And on top of all that, the stress of the holiday season tends to bring another level of conflict into the mix. This year I have convinced my partner to go on a holiday and spend Christmas in a hotel just the two of us because I couldn't…

'I paid for his education': Entitled woman throws shade at blue-collar in-laws by telling her kids to stay in school, brother-in-law gives the ultimate comeback

Our OP had the ultimate comeback to his entitled sister-in-law who tried to shame him for living in a trailer and working a blue-collar job. In front of their whole family, and in our OP's mobile home, she told her children to stay in school or they will end up like their uncle. She said she doesn't want her kids “working with their hands.” She backed her statement by saying that him and his wife are doing OK, but what if they wanted children? Little did she know he invited his family over to t…

'She broke multiple heirloom china plates': Dinner host gives sister in law sippy cup and child's plate after she repeatedly drops dishes

These family meals took an interesting turn thanks to a clumsy sister in law. Owning fine china is a point of pride for many people. In some families, china is passed down from generation to generation. It's pretty common for the dishes to be passed on from parent to their adult child, often after a wedding or moving into a new place. Aside from the sentimental nature of these items, they're often irreplaceable. If you break it , you might not be able to make your collection whole again. This p…

'His sister will come in and "doctor up" the food I'm making': Husband and SIL refuse to stop ruining woman's dinners

This kitchen has too many chefs . The secret to great cooking is following a recipe. Unless you're a super skilled chef with years of experience eyeballing your measurements and tweaking your recipes, you're gonna need a proper recipe. Everyone has different skill levels in the kitchen too, so it doesn't hurt to have a list of ingredients and steps to follow. This person is trying to follow their own recipes for dinners for their family. They keep making food for their kids, husband, and the SI…

‘She thinks she is fixing stuff’: Sister-in-law’s unsanctioned sauce seasoning causes major family schism

For those of us who love some zest and spice, it’s always difficult eating at that relative or friend’s place who refuses to add even a grain of salt or dust of pepper to their meals. These people have clearly never used their tastebuds before, and it shows. Still, it’s worth acknowledging that this is a rather pretentious thing to think; you should always just be grateful that someone cares enough to cook you a meal at all. Cooking is an investment of time, and—unlike some ingredients—time doe…

'I could still cancel their reservations": Choosing beggar in-laws complain about an all expenses paid trip to Disney

Never look a gift horse in the mouth—and never gift a look mouth in the horse. That doesn't make sense you say? Well, I feel like it makes about as much sense as the original. Horses and mouthes aside, it's never a good idea to make an issue about something someone is giving you for free. For one thing, it's free and there's nothing better than free stuff. Even if someone gives you a nest of angry bees at least you can make honey. If you're allergic to bees, at least you've gained the knowledge…

'Sister in law stole our baby name. Now she regrets it': Entitled SIL burns bridges over name dispute

While they certainly aren't the first family to squabble over baby names, this SIL sounds especially toxic to her other family members . People oftentimes feel strongly about the names they choose for their babies. After all, a name is the first thing someone knows about you, and it sticks with you for life. Some siblings choose the same name , fall in love with it, and fight about the name with their family, but not quite to the extent that this person did, as they shared in a post to r/Entitl…

'You burned a bridge': Man would rather catch up on sleep than babysit his nephew, meanwhile the boy's aunt undergoes treatment in the ICU after a potentially fatal car accident

Some people would do pretty much anything for their family. As Dominic Toretto always said, :The most important thing in life will always be family". Well, for one Redditor, the most important thing in his life, is sleep. And apparently nothing in this world could threatened to deprive him of his 8 hours– not even the near d3ath experience of a family member.

'YTA. Holy moly': Woman roasted online for 'cruel' remark about SIL's miscarriages, husband attempts to redeem her and receives the same treatment.

Sometimes, you need to know when to quit and when to walk away. Sometimes, you should also learn to take advice the first time it's given to you… especially when you directly asked for it. This couple would do well to learn this and listen to the advice they received from Reddit's r/AmItheA**hole community this week. The pair made separate posts to the sub to see whether or not the wife was in the wrong for her comments to her husband's sister. Her sister-in-law offered her some advice about th…

When your adoption plays out like a Team Rocket attempt to capture Ash's Pikachu — you might need to go home and rethink your life. Now, I'm not knocking those who would seek to adopt children; largely, these people are doing one of the greatest goods you could imagine — however, privately approaching, no — stalking — a desperate young woman on Facebook and convincing her that her only option is to give her unborn baby to you is nefarious , in a mustache-twirling, cat-stroking, monocle-adjustin…
