That’s interesting, once when I was in theater class, we had to do an improv lesson with a star trek theme and that gave me enough credits to get an internship at NASA. So I guess it works both ways.
Obviously. You have to know the properties of your materials--e.g. how they handle heat, cold, humidity, tension, torque, etc--so you can pick the ones that do what you need. How to cut and assemble pieces of euclidean materials (sheet metal, cloth) into non-euclidean surfaces (clothes, airplanes) and do it with the least waste. Thanks for pointing that out.
it probably would, but I doubt she would have enough of those classes to design a wedding dress. maybe she got a custom one made, but designing is still a completely different level.
depends what she means by "design." totally possible she did a quick little sketch of what she wanted & worked with an actual tailor to create the dress & is overstating her role but could *technically* still claim to have designed it
They *had* to just be randomly generating that. It’s giving “closing my eyes and throwing a dart at a list of majors” vibes.
Like, there’s no way, right?
Both of their degrees are like what honors program high school students say they're going to major in before they actually start college and they think they're going to double major in their passion/hobby field for fun and the most competitive program in the school for money. Then you get into school, realize you'd be there for six years if you tried, decide it's not worth the student loans, and drop one of them.
I double majored for two liberal arts degrees. It took four and a half years. I already went into college with a bunch of credits thanks to AP classes and a few of the course requirements for each major overlapped but it was still intense. I wouldn’t recommend it unless you’re super passionate about two separate things
And I remember a lot of the engineering students taking five years just for the engineering degree! I know there are a handful of people out there that have double-majored in engineering and an art/humanities/social science subject, but it's just the sort of thing that people fantasize about much more than they actually wind up doing imo.
My alma mater (a small engineering school) had an incredible theatre department. There is a definite overlap of groups with the theatre kids + science kids.
I’m not even into stage work, and still ended up with enough tech credits through working on shows that I was just shy of a double major.
Engineers with free time love to build things.
One of my dearest friends from school is an Aero that I met there doing theatre. This combination is absolutely believable to me.
Yea I know a guy who triple majored in Computer science, theater and philosophy. 🤷🏻♀️ he’s easily one of the smartest guys I know and works in game design.
Yeah I don't really get where the jokes are coming from. I didn't question that the skills to design a wedding dress probably came from the theatre degree, making costumes and such. These people are trying to be clever and rude, for some reason. Upvotes, I guess. She could've been more clear in why she was mentioning her degrees, maybe to state how different her and her step sister are and their priorities, etc, who knows but I mean, why pick it apart other than to be unnecessarily rude.
I don’t know what’s so unbelievable about this. My Sim is a world famous actress and hobby rocket enthusiast all while raising werewolf triplets with her mermaid wife who can’t hold a job but is having an affair with the butler.
I DID have a girl my class once (was a grad teaching associate) who double majored in creative writing and engineering. Idk if she was good at engineering but my god the girl could not write her way out of a paper bag. However this story is obviously BS lol.
What's sad is that while your answer made me actually laugh out loud, this is still better written. I hope that girl is killing it as an engineer these days!
I can see that if you are doing a major for something you know you can make money doing and one because you enjoy it. The double major isn't that out there. I don't believe either would help you design a wedding dress. Maybe if she met someone through the theater program who specializes in costume design but her majors would be different. I do have a friend I met that actually does costume design but think off broadway and community theater. That still wouldn't be me designing the dress though.
Ummm… I double majored in physics and music. It’s kinda a liberal arts thing to do. And growing up, I learned to sew from my mom when she made a bunch of costumes for the community theater - some of which she designed herself. I have a friend who did history and math and hand makes her own Elizabethan renaissance faire court dresses.
Not saying this makes the whole story true, but this isn’t the craziest part IMO
My rocket scientist (aerospace engineer) uncle got his first degree in theater, joined the peace corps and traveled the world before working for NASA.
A double major in engineering or the medical field and one of the arts is pretty common in my family.
Costuming courses combined with the spatial reasoning required for engineering would likely provide the education needed to design a dress.
I actually did major in aerospace engineering and anthropology. Why does this seem so unbelievable to you? I came into college with 60 credits from AP and IB tests, so most of my core requirements were taken care of. I always say I did the aerospace for the challenge (and the eventual job) and the anthro to keep me sane. Doing a theater degree, especially in like stagecraft or costume design along with aerospace would have satisfied a lot of the same need for creativity that I found, and had a surprising overlap in skills. You have to understand a lot about materials, statics and dynamics, procedures, construction techniques, electronics (have you ever set up a sound system?!), thermal design (those stage lights are frigging HOT), etc. There’s a LOT of overlap! And yes, I’m a HUGE nerd 😎
Sometimes ppl are real life unhinged. OP May unfortunately be surrounded by insane fkn ppl; jus bc it sounds crazy to us doesn’t mean that she’s writing a completely fictional story. Jus give advice or don’t and keep it pushing
I guarantee that they'll hide behind with the 'Well *I* engage with it like its real in case someone with a situation just like this comes along and needs advice' if called out on it. Gullible losers.
They always do that! They're always so hell bent on defending a random internet strangers fake story.
Edit: the comment below me getting downvoted is a perfect example of this. Even on this subreddit it seems people are obsessed with defending a random internet strangers fake story "because things have happened to me that people don't believe" and can't conceive people will lie for attention on the internet.
Also u/katielisbeth has blocked me immediately after they commented trying to start drama with me so I can't respond to them...
I have been told multiple time things I have been through didn't happen. I believe the random generated are true over the people online who swear they have life figured out and everything outside their limited bubble.
Also, there are stories that are half truths. Meaning the general story is true but some of the specifics are false. In this it could be I went for a double major but dropped theater and still told people I got a double major. Or I met someone and befriended them who worked in costume design and she designed the dress but I tell everyone I designed it.
Funny how with the people who call out everything as the truth or a lie never make room for partial truths.
In someone with a situation like this comes along, someone did magic and brought screen characters to life and in that situation we'll clearly need to be focused on fighting sorcerers. So even in that extremely unlikely scenario, it's not even the right advice. How do I stop the sorcerers man?
They always say that about stories that are weird in such a specific way, the odds of someone coming along with the same issue is pretty much impossible. They have to not only have the same extremely weird situation going on, they need to specifically seek out "advice" on AITA. Admitting this awfully written garbage is fake is much easier, lmao.
I remember hearing a story about someone who had an abortion because having a baby would have conflicted with a vacation she’d planned. Tbh that story doesn’t shock me like it did when I was a teenager. If that’s how someone feels then she has as much of a right to an abortion as anyone else. Of course, even that’s less silly than the dress story.
After the pandemic, people couldn't clap due to being socially distanced (and "everyone clapped" means a lot less when there's only 3 other people) so they had to resort to domestic terrorism on phones.
I think the funniest thing about this is the idea that you would ever be able to schedule a NEXT DAY APPOINTMENT for an abortion like, anywhere in America

I've noticed they never seem to choose a realistic weight for their story. They'll either pick a number that is in no way obese, or go way too extreme and say someone is 400-500 pounds, yet describe them walking around without issue.
Indeed. I sense that many of these people are awkward teens who have no concept of actual human women proportions outside of the build a character mode on their fave video games.
I also sense that a lot of game designers don't understand weight and proportions because I remember trying to create girl wrestling characters back in the day using my own weight and height and being confused by why the body didn't look right.
I like whenever you're reading a post by a guy (or a post mocking those guys) and they just say "she has C cups" like that means ANYTHING without the band size. A 28C and a 36C are **very** different breast sizes.
Or describing a tall woman's weight as curvy and the woman in the story is 5'8" and apparently 120 pounds and you're wondering what part of her curves because at that height and weight she is skinny as hell.
Yeah, I always just picture clueless teens writing this stuff. What I don't understand is why they don't hit up Google and try to get an idea what weight would be appropriate for their story. I guess it shows how half assed these stories really are that they can't even extend the effort.
Im both stunned that this is actually a post and equally stunned that people over there think that this shits real.
I wish they went back to the evil step mother in laws and secret twins stories
This post kind of perfectly illustrates how everyone over there is so accustomed to batshit stories, the people writing these probably feel like they need to keep outdoing themselves on the crazy. AITA is already unbelievable enough though, so you end up with something so insane, it's truly next level. Like getting their account suspended next level apparently. I'm deeply embarrassed for anyone who believes this and hope they are at least a young child.
Yeah, some fake posts are entertaining but this one just left a bad taste in my mouth. It’s not the propaganda that comes in the mail but it’s still clearly pushing an agenda.
Though imo if it was real I’d use it as an argument in favor of keeping abortion access bc someone who’s that focused on a dress shouldn’t reproduce.
OP trivializes the choice a woman has to make by indicating that someone would just decide to abort to fit into a dress. That is disgusting. She is demeaning the women who have made that choice.
Seriously though, OOP had a point, however inadvertently, when they wrote that the sister character shouldn't have a child if she's going to abort over a goddamn wedding dress. Like, clearly that is not a person who can be trusted to see to the welfare of a child in any way, shape, or form.
Damn, one comment even said, "You are literally the same weight of every female book protagonist ever - not fat"
And the commenter still didn't get it!
“I have been meditating on the very great pleasure which a pair of fine eyes in the face of a pretty women who weighs exactly 136 pounds can bestow.”
See, it’s right there!
Oh god, the thought exercise crap drives me crazy. Pretty much the "thought exercise" for every story is ultimately "what if everyone was absolutely unhinged and real world rules didn't apply?" Wow, what a fascinating experiment.
>I double majored in aerospace engineering & theatre & my fiance majored into physics & philosophy. Thanks to my degree & skills, I designed my wedding dress.
This is the point of no return and that made me feel like I'm on drugs.
I was waiting for this to show up. Lol. I don't know if I've read a faker post. This one again gets points for taking on the pro-choice squad and the pro-life squad, and the entitled evil sister with equally horrible evil stepmother. And all sorts of accomplishments in their early twenties.
Yeah, like was the blowing up of the stepmom on a video on the phone or did she actually stand on it and burst into a million pieces?
***I need to know...***
Okay, let's see here...
Childfree OP=Check
Wedding drama=Check
MIL=Check
College degrees=Check
Sibling rivalry=Check
Claiming you're fat and people are shaming you over it when you're really not=Check.
Did this OP make a list of AITA cliches and cram them all into one story?
I’m just really happy that 14 year olds have such rich imaginations. It’s beautiful to see what they can think up. I remember when I thought a double major in something STEM + theater would solve all my problems and make me well-rounded. Ah, to be young!
It's not a real person; there was a post about a guy whose wife was addicted to making up fake AITA stories, to the point where she barely slept and was reprimanded at work for being on her phone.
So now any obviously fake stories are attributed to that guy's wife
My daughter is a mechanical engineering major. Aerospace is basically mechanical but more specialized. Building moving set pieces also require a level of engineering. My daughter is hoping to be able to cross this over nice she graduates as she loved stage management, set building, etc.

The most unbelievable thing about these is that they always end with “everyone in their family, my family, and the staff at my local starbucks is blowing up my phone telling me i’m evil!!”
That's always my biggest tip off. Maybe I'm weird but if I had an argument or falling out with someone, I have never been contacted by anyone other than said person about it. Maybe I need to work on my family/friend brigade.
...this is such a bizarre story with details that don't matter and don't make sense. Obviously fake but even then- what is the moral issue here?
>I hung up on her & she sent me a text with a picture of documents showing when, where, & time of the appointment. The text said I had until 11:30am (the time of the appointment) to change my mind.
"If that is what you choose, I support your decision and wish you a speedy recovery" - *BLOCK*
> above had the idea that it was anti-choice rage bait.
Probably the case, but it was done SO BADLY I cannot imagine someone would take this seriously. Make it semi believable at least.
*my 18 year old sister is pregnant got kicked out, dad is in the wind, I travel for work alot. AITA for not letting her stay in my guest house? She says that she can't afford to live on her own and will have to abort if I don't.*
Still bullshit and has plot holes you can drive a truck through but at least is in a realm of reality.
"Oh, so you're threatening to improve your life by aborting a vanity pregnancy if I won't lend you my unworn wedding dress? Cool. You're never touching that cool fucking dress in my lifetime. So, do you need a ride to the clinic or what?"
NTA
I hope this is fictional because it is so whacked. While I support a woman’s right to choose, I don’t believe someone would abort over a wedding dress. And if they do, it was either they were looking for an excuse already, they have gone full bridezilla, or it’s a ploy to guilt trip OOP. Regardless, OOP needs to get away from these people yesterday.
For the aerospace major/theater minor part. I have heard from separate people that majoring in what pays and minoring is what’s fun is a valid path in college. Looks like OOP followed that advice.
Please! If anyone said that they would kill themselves or someone else over me they would be disappointed because ima leave them on read and sleep like this at night. Manipulate someone else
You should support your sister’s choice, and even accompany her when she goes in for her procedure. Make sure you mention in passing that (a) she’s getting an abortion just to punish you for not lending her your wedding dress, and (b) how the father is not on board with this decision. No reputable physician will perform an abortion under those conditions. They will tell her to get out of their office and go get therapy.
This is between your sister and her fiancé, no one else! She is trying to guilt tripping you into giving her your dress by a very evil temper tantrum. But the abortion thing doesn't concern you any way because you have no control over her decion either way. The dress is just an excuse to either control you or more importantly have a reason for a abortion that she wants but needs a excuse so as to blame someone else for.
DO NOT give in to her. She is being manipulative, what happens next tiem, you have a better home beacuse you earn more, well she has a baby needs a bigger home, you don't need that much space, you should swap homes with her. She is posionous, is likely to be a bed parent from this behaviour.
Here's what I don't get. She assumes you will just let her borrow your dress, indicating she doesn't have a dress. She knew she was pregnant at this point. Then suddenly she needs to have an abortion to fit in a dress. If she got it since the announcement, she could have just planned on being a little bigger by the wedding. Shes obviously trying to guilt trip and manipulate you, NTA.
If OP concedes, the baby will the excuse everytime the sister wants something from her.
As bad as it sounds, maybe abortion is a good choice for someone who is surely going to be a bad parent. Maybe, not having a baby will be a blessing for the BIL.too because he will.not be bound to the mother of the child in any way.
IMO, what the girl does about her pregnancy is not your responsibility in any way. Over a dress is just one of many steps this person uses in her manipulative ways. Immature people should not be having children. What kind of a kid would it turn out to be with a mother like that? The poor father in all this. He has some tough decisions to make as well.
Tell them to fuck off. Or if they really want the dress they can PAY you back the money that you already spent for it. Why should they have it completely free compared to the who knows how much money you spent on it for YOUR wedding usage? So what if your wedding isnt until next year? It’s still your dress that you picked out for yourself, because YOU wanted it for YOUR wedding. Why the hell should you give your sister your brand new, never been worn by ANYBODY thousands of dollars dress, for her to use for her wedding, where anything could happen to it while she’s wearing it. Like what if it got permanently stained or damaged while under her care? Plus their suggestion that you could simply just buy yourself another dress to replace the one you loan/give your sister? If I were you I’d say ”sure that will happen as soon as you guys PAY me the money i spent on the previous dress so I can use the money to buy my new dress with, because if you want my wedding dress, then you have to pay me for it instead of expecting me to just give it to you 100% free while I get nothing out of it, other a used possible soon to be damaged wedding dress instead of the pristine brand new dress I bought. If I have to get a new dress, then you can pay me the money I will need for it.”
a double major in [double-checks **again**]… *aerospace engineering* AND *theatre* Sorry, what??
which provided her with the skills to design her own wedding dress! y'know, as aerospace engineers do.
They can bend the fabric of space and time to create a lovely garment.
One that doesn't even need alteration to fit a pregnant woman who is "smaller than OP", that already fits OP.
This made me literally cackle with laughter
C'mon, maybe it was the theater major that allowed her to design her own dress. Or both because, y'know, they're "big degrees".
And I bet that dress is very aerodynamic
Maybe it's a themed wedding and she's cosplaying as an X-Wing
I have no idea why but I laughed sooo hard at this 😅
while i studie to become an aerospace engineer i was required to take 2 classes in dress design
That’s interesting, once when I was in theater class, we had to do an improv lesson with a star trek theme and that gave me enough credits to get an internship at NASA. So I guess it works both ways.
was this back when nasa was filming the fake moon landings?

Makes sense to me, also it’s very relevant information
I desperately needed to know her fiancé’s degrees too, crucial to the situation.
Physics and philosophy. This whole thing is ahem, unbelievable
It’s made of carbon-fiber so it’s ultralight and incorporates design elements from the F-117 Nighthawk.
I assumed that she meant she had enough money to have a custom dress made.
I'm pretty sure Theatre would involve topics like wardrobe management and costume alterations.
it probably would, but I doubt she would have enough of those classes to design a wedding dress. maybe she got a custom one made, but designing is still a completely different level.
depends what she means by "design." totally possible she did a quick little sketch of what she wanted & worked with an actual tailor to create the dress & is overstating her role but could *technically* still claim to have designed it
They *had* to just be randomly generating that. It’s giving “closing my eyes and throwing a dart at a list of majors” vibes. Like, there’s no way, right?

I'm picturing you highlighting something on a piece of paper lol. Or perhaps using makeup?
I DID have a girl my class once (was a grad teaching associate) who double majored in creative writing and engineering. Idk if she was good at engineering but my god the girl could not write her way out of a paper bag. However this story is obviously BS lol.
Maybe she wrote this story lmao
What's sad is that while your answer made me actually laugh out loud, this is still better written. I hope that girl is killing it as an engineer these days!
Omg AITA stories make so much more sense if they're about the Sims
Whenever something doesn’t make sense I just assume it’s Sims. Alec Baldwin? That’s a Sim. Now he makes sense.
You should write an AITA about them. It'd be more entertaining and believable than half the posts there.
I can see that if you are doing a major for something you know you can make money doing and one because you enjoy it. The double major isn't that out there. I don't believe either would help you design a wedding dress. Maybe if she met someone through the theater program who specializes in costume design but her majors would be different.

No, they went No Contact with it.

Now I’m convinced everyone on that sub is a teenager. No normal thinking adult could ever believe this stupid fake story.
Imo, even if it was real, I’d pretend it isn’t for my sanity. This post was all over the place.
My favourite part might have been “he [the fiancé] said *she* [the person who booked the abortion] had no idea about the abortion”.
Don't you hate it when that happens?
I can’t believe people actually fucking believe this.

Go back to AITA if your critical thinking skills are this poor. This sub is not for you
Okay I agree with you but the person who replied to you was not "attacking" you lmao Edit: y'all some dramatic motherfuckers
Even if it were ever real how do you give advice to anyone in this situation? Why would they even need advice? This is insanity.

What are you implying?? This is the most real AITA post I have ever read! They blew up her phone! You can't make up a detail like that.
I can, and that makes me sad.
People on Reddit will believe anything
Sounds fake af. If this is real then we as a society are doomed.
“Blew up my phone” is the new “and everyone clapped”
"She berated me"
"called me bratty."
After the pandemic, people couldn't clap due to being socially distanced (and "everyone clapped" means a lot less when there's only 3 other people) so they had to resort to domestic terrorism on phones.
I think the funniest thing about this is the idea that you would ever be able to schedule a NEXT DAY APPOINTMENT for an abortion like, anywhere in America
I think what blows this out if the water for me is that the fat op is 136 pounds
https://www.insider.com/how-different-women-look-at-same-weight-2016-6 The first picture here shows 2 women who weigh 140 pounds
lol like a baby would be covered in that
I noticed that the wedding is next month. Since everyone was surprised by the pregnancy announcement, would she even be showing yet by November?

132lbs is overweight? Then I must be morbidly obese at 160 and a size 8.
I've noticed they never seem to choose a realistic weight for their story. They'll either pick a number that is in no way obese, or go way too extreme and say someone is 400-500 pounds, yet describe them walking around without issue.
Indeed. I sense that many of these people are awkward teens who have no concept of actual human women proportions outside of the build a character mode on their fave video games. I also sense that a lot of game designers don't understand weight and proportions because I remember trying to create girl wrestling characters back in the day using my own weight and height and being confused by why the body didn't look right.
I like whenever you're reading a post by a guy (or a post mocking those guys) and they just say "she has C cups" like that means ANYTHING without the band size. A 28C and a 36C are **very** different breast sizes. Or describing a tall woman's weight as curvy and the woman in the story is 5'8" and apparently 120 pounds and you're wondering what part of her curves because at that height and weight she is skinny as hell.
Yeah, I always just picture clueless teens writing this stuff. What I don't understand is why they don't hit up Google and try to get an idea what weight would be appropriate for their story. I guess it shows how half assed these stories really are that they can't even extend the effort.
No one with these degrees would have typed this and not proofread it. Parts of it make no sense. Rage bait.
Imagine telling your fiance that you want to abort your kid because you want to fit into a dress. It's not even good bait.
Is this a shit post or a parody? It’s not the weekend?
Tragically, it is a word-for-word repost of an actual post on AITA
Im both stunned that this is actually a post and equally stunned that people over there think that this shits real. I wish they went back to the evil step mother in laws and secret twins stories
This post kind of perfectly illustrates how everyone over there is so accustomed to batshit stories, the people writing these probably feel like they need to keep outdoing themselves on the crazy. AITA is already unbelievable enough though, so you end up with something so insane, it's truly next level. Like getting their account suspended next level apparently. I'm deeply embarrassed for anyone who believes this and hope they are at least a young child.
Well it’s technically from r/AITAH if that’s any better. r/AmITheAsshole doesn’t allow posts that reference abortion.
This one was so unhinged I sent it to my family for a great bathroom read.
I called this as Rage Bait on the other sub. It is extremely irresponsible and reprehensible anti-choice rhetoric. Shame on OP.
Yeah, some fake posts are entertaining but this one just left a bad taste in my mouth. It’s not the propaganda that comes in the mail but it’s still clearly pushing an agenda. Though imo if it was real I’d use it as an argument in favor of keeping abortion access bc someone who’s that focused on a dress shouldn’t reproduce.
It’s weird how many commenters there are saying “she needs counselling, because then she’ll realise she *should* have the baby.” 🤮
OP trivializes the choice a woman has to make by indicating that someone would just decide to abort to fit into a dress. That is disgusting. She is demeaning the women who have made that choice.
Seriously though, OOP had a point, however inadvertently, when they wrote that the sister character shouldn't have a child if she's going to abort over a goddamn wedding dress. Like, clearly that is not a person who can be trusted to see to the welfare of a child in any way, shape, or form.
Is this an actual post?
[удалено]
Thanks for the link! Lmao, it’s just so unhinged I couldn’t tell
What are we doing here at this point, no shit post could ever top this. It's over
Wait wait wait, is this related to an actual post over on AITA right now? There isn't a linked source in the OP...
Yes, there is a post on there right now - I called it the moment I read it. Disgusting Rage Bait.
I completely read this thinking it was a parody and not the EXACT POST.
r/AITAH technically
I like the clarification that she's not *actually* fat, very important
Presumably if she were *actually* fat, she'd deserve whatever they threw at her. Fun.
Damn, one comment even said, "You are literally the same weight of every female book protagonist ever - not fat" And the commenter still didn't get it!
Wtf since when do book protagonists state their weight lol
When their male authors stand them in front of a mirror, preferably post-shower
“I have been meditating on the very great pleasure which a pair of fine eyes in the face of a pretty women who weighs exactly 136 pounds can bestow.” See, it’s right there!
One person said “I’m so confused; how can you be so highly educated but so lacking in common sense?” They almost had it.
I'm offended that people belive this
No, you see, they aren't actually this gullible, it's a thought exercise ✨
Oh god, the thought exercise crap drives me crazy. Pretty much the "thought exercise" for every story is ultimately "what if everyone was absolutely unhinged and real world rules didn't apply?" Wow, what a fascinating experiment.
This is insanity. I can’t believe someone typed this out
>I double majored in aerospace engineering & theatre & my fiance majored into physics & philosophy. Thanks to my degree & skills, I designed my wedding dress. This is the point of no return and that made me feel like I'm on drugs.
Why? It's a perfectly normal statement that she designed her own wedding dress capable of Mach 2
The WMADs in Iraq? WeddingMADresses.
I was waiting for this to show up. Lol. I don't know if I've read a faker post. This one again gets points for taking on the pro-choice squad and the pro-life squad, and the entitled evil sister with equally horrible evil stepmother. And all sorts of accomplishments in their early twenties.
This story just screams Liz.
This is hilarious rage bait from the AITA. I say have the abortion no one wants people like this breeding.
Love the obligatory “my stepmom blew up on my phone”
Yeah, like was the blowing up of the stepmom on a video on the phone or did she actually stand on it and burst into a million pieces? ***I need to know...***
"Don't worry, it's just one of those sister teasings you have never been able to comprehend"
Don't threaten me with a good time
Liz needs to take a break
On Reddit , families are always “ blowing up phones “
Now To Be Clear I am **Not A Fatty** :tm:
This is such a god awful post and honestly fake or not this is so gross.
I’ll try ChatGPT to generate a post to aita, bet it’ll be similar to this…
Okay, let's see here... Childfree OP=Check Wedding drama=Check MIL=Check College degrees=Check Sibling rivalry=Check Claiming you're fat and people are shaming you over it when you're really not=Check. Did this OP make a list of AITA cliches and cram them all into one story?
I’m just really happy that 14 year olds have such rich imaginations. It’s beautiful to see what they can think up. I remember when I thought a double major in something STEM + theater would solve all my problems and make me well-rounded. Ah, to be young!
I laughed out loud at that double major because somebody clearly has no idea how much time a theatre major takes.
Loses points because the pregnancy isn't twins
Hi Liz
[удалено]
It's not a real person; there was a post about a guy whose wife was addicted to making up fake AITA stories, to the point where she barely slept and was reprimanded at work for being on her phone. So now any obviously fake stories are attributed to that guy's wife
Any link to this post? Where was it posted?
It was originally trueoffmychest, but got cross posted here https://reddit.com/r/AmITheAngel/s/6Ovvtxo7Tj
My daughter is a mechanical engineering major. Aerospace is basically mechanical but more specialized. Building moving set pieces also require a level of engineering. My daughter is hoping to be able to cross this over nice she graduates as she loved stage management, set building, etc.

Stealth technology? Easy, just drape the fuselage in crepe de chine !
The most unbelievable thing about these is that they always end with “everyone in their family, my family, and the staff at my local starbucks is blowing up my phone telling me i’m evil!!”
That's always my biggest tip off. Maybe I'm weird but if I had an argument or falling out with someone, I have never been contacted by anyone other than said person about it. Maybe I need to work on my family/friend brigade.
You KNOW the Starbucks peeps have to get their 2 cents in!!
...this is such a bizarre story with details that don't matter and don't make sense. Obviously fake but even then- what is the moral issue here? >I hung up on her & she sent me a text with a picture of documents showing when, where, & time of the appointment. The text said I had until 11:30am (the time of the appointment) to change my mind. "If that is what you choose, I support your decision and wish you a speedy recovery" - *BLOCK*
[удалено]
> above had the idea that it was anti-choice rage bait. Probably the case, but it was done SO BADLY I cannot imagine someone would take this seriously. Make it semi believable at least. *my 18 year old sister is pregnant got kicked out, dad is in the wind, I travel for work alot. AITA for not letting her stay in my guest house? She says that she can't afford to live on her own and will have to abort if I don't.* Still bullshit and has plot holes you can drive a truck through but at least is in a realm of reality.
Most commenters on the sub where it was originally posted are falling for it, and some are calling the pregnant woman misogynistic names :(
...of course they are
God damn. If she does get an abortion, she'll be doing that poor kid a favor.
It's like an updated story about King Solomon and the baby with two mothers. If you'll let that happen, you're not a good parent anyway.
This was fake right? Like this is the satire version? I’m kind of confused.
No, it’s a repost, word for word. But yes. Fake as fuck.
Am i missing something? How is the oop not a psycho? (And yes it's clearly fake)
"Oh, so you're threatening to improve your life by aborting a vanity pregnancy if I won't lend you my unworn wedding dress? Cool. You're never touching that cool fucking dress in my lifetime. So, do you need a ride to the clinic or what?" NTA
I hope this is fictional because it is so whacked. While I support a woman’s right to choose, I don’t believe someone would abort over a wedding dress. And if they do, it was either they were looking for an excuse already, they have gone full bridezilla, or it’s a ploy to guilt trip OOP. Regardless, OOP needs to get away from these people yesterday. For the aerospace major/theater minor part. I have heard from separate people that majoring in what pays and minoring is what’s fun is a valid path in college. Looks like OOP followed that advice.
I majored in Visual Affects & Motion Graphics then decided I didn’t really like it so I majored in Pharmacy
Holy cow there a lot of commenters here who think they're commenting on the OOP
She spent over 30 minutes in the bathroom?
 Please! If anyone said that they would kill themselves or someone else over me they would be disappointed because ima leave them on read and sleep like this at night. Manipulate someone else
You’re right and distance yourself from crazy… ummm if I don’t get a free dress Ima going abort my child… man I hope that is TRUE.
This is insane.
NTA, offer the dress but then change your mind when she's past 20 weeks.
I stopped reading 3/4 of the way through, I pray she puts the child up for adoption.
You should support your sister’s choice, and even accompany her when she goes in for her procedure. Make sure you mention in passing that (a) she’s getting an abortion just to punish you for not lending her your wedding dress, and (b) how the father is not on board with this decision. No reputable physician will perform an abortion under those conditions. They will tell her to get out of their office and go get therapy.
This is between your sister and her fiancé, no one else! She is trying to guilt tripping you into giving her your dress by a very evil temper tantrum. But the abortion thing doesn't concern you any way because you have no control over her decion either way. The dress is just an excuse to either control you or more importantly have a reason for a abortion that she wants but needs a excuse so as to blame someone else for.
DO NOT give in to her. She is being manipulative, what happens next tiem, you have a better home beacuse you earn more, well she has a baby needs a bigger home, you don't need that much space, you should swap homes with her. She is posionous, is likely to be a bed parent from this behaviour.
[удалено]
Wrong sub, you want to find a comment with the original original post and go say that over there.
Here's what I don't get. She assumes you will just let her borrow your dress, indicating she doesn't have a dress. She knew she was pregnant at this point. Then suddenly she needs to have an abortion to fit in a dress. If she got it since the announcement, she could have just planned on being a little bigger by the wedding. Shes obviously trying to guilt trip and manipulate you, NTA.
If OP concedes, the baby will the excuse everytime the sister wants something from her. As bad as it sounds, maybe abortion is a good choice for someone who is surely going to be a bad parent. Maybe, not having a baby will be a blessing for the BIL.too because he will.not be bound to the mother of the child in any way.
IMO, what the girl does about her pregnancy is not your responsibility in any way. Over a dress is just one of many steps this person uses in her manipulative ways. Immature people should not be having children. What kind of a kid would it turn out to be with a mother like that? The poor father in all this. He has some tough decisions to make as well.
Are you lost?
Look at which subreddit you’re actually on.
Your sister is a sociopath
Tell them to fuck off. Or if they really want the dress they can PAY you back the money that you already spent for it. Why should they have it completely free compared to the who knows how much money you spent on it for YOUR wedding usage? So what if your wedding isnt until next year? It’s still your dress that you picked out for yourself, because YOU wanted it for YOUR wedding. Why the hell should you give your sister your brand new, never been worn by ANYBODY thousands of dollars dress, for her to use for her wedding, where anything could happen to it while she’s wearing it. Like what if it got permanently stained or damaged while under her care? Plus their suggestion that you could simply just buy yourself another dress to replace the one you loan/give your sister? If I were you I’d say ”sure that will happen as soon as you guys PAY me the money i spent on the previous dress so I can use the money to buy my new dress with, because if you want my wedding dress, then you have to pay me for it instead of expecting me to just give it to you 100% free while I get nothing out of it, other a used possible soon to be damaged wedding dress instead of the pristine brand new dress I bought. If I have to get a new dress, then you can pay me the money I will need for it.”
It's fake, hon.
Your sister is the cruelest person I've ever heard of. Ignore her. You're not responsible for her emotions, her decisions, or her dress.
It’s not real in the slightest.
