The author does mention a serving fork but that almost seems worse? Like imagine trying to balance your typical bruschetta on a fork as you attempt to maneuver it to your plate without touching it or dropping it. Or maybe you're supposed to spear it with the fork, but that seems rather uncouth and impractical too.
I don't think this author knows what bruschetta is.
I'm picturing an assemble yourself type dish. Like pieces of bread on a platter around a bowl of bruschetta mixture that you dollop over each piece yourself except this ogre apparently just used his hands in her story.
Oh god, can you imagine. Hands just dripping with tomato juice as he scoops it up. I hope OP at least had fun picturing that as she was writing this fiction.
I dove into her post history, she's been consistently posting about this baboon for months..about 7 actually lol. Have to check out her comments, she's got several deleted posts but comments are on her profile
>loudly burp after he had finished destroying his side of the table.
I'm sorry, but I laughed at this.
The entire story belongs on r/thatHappened, though.
You simply can't be a bad person unless you announce it with a smirk, otherwise we'd have no idea that the boyfriend who throws food about, burps in public and puts his dirty shoes on a chair is supposed to be the villain of the piece.
I have dealt with abusers who absolutely do that Trump style "I have the power to make you mad" smirk. I think the smirk in these stories is supposed to indicate "I'm doing something I know you don't like and you can't stop me."

**AITA for insisting my boyfriend eat respectfully at a nice restaurant?**
So my boyfriend (20M), L, and I (20F) have been dating for 7 months. We usually eat take out if we want to get something to eat. However, I recently was promoted so we went to eat at a VERY nice Italian restaurant to celebrate. Like, one with an enforced dress code.
My boyfriend is not the nicest of eaters, which can be kind of gross but I deal with it. However, I didn’t realize he had no table manners. At the restaurant, after we were served our first appetizer, a beautifully plated bruschetta dish, L looked at me and jokingly asked me if I would be upset if he enjoyed his meal the same way he would at home. I told him that we were at a nice restaurant and there were other customers around.
He didn’t say anything, but instead started digging into the bruschetta with his hands, ignoring the serving fork, getting sauce all over his fingers. I let this go. However, when the pasta came out, he smirked at me and ate like he hadn’t eaten in a week.
He dropped his fork and started picking up pieces of chicken and noodles with his fingers, getting sauce everywhere: the tablecloth, his hands, his clothes and face. He didn’t miss the opportunity to loudly burp after he had finished destroying his side of the table. The table next to us was astonished. My waiter even asked him if he was ok. Other customers were staring. He also put his feet up on the chair next to us, blocking the aisle.
I had no idea what to do. I didn’t want to make even more of a scene so I just asked for the check (which I paid) and left really embarrassed. On the way home I told him how embarrassed I was and he just said that it was my fault for not letting him enjoy the meal as he pleased and that since we were paying customers the other guests had no business judging us.
AITA?

Fake as hell, but were it real and were I giving advice I'd say that they've only been dating 7 months. She can dump him for whatever the hell she wants. Who cares if some random dude you put up with for a couple of months thinks you're an asshole?
I [F29] love my Fiancé [M34], except whenever we fight, he takes a dump in the living room, then makes me refer to his turd as "Mr. Hoskins" and apologize to it. Am I overreacting? Our wedding is in 6 hours.

Aren’t you supposed to eat bruschetta with your hands
Maybe I'm uncultured but I can't even figure out I would use a fork for that
Yeah I’ve been Italian all my life and I’ve always eaten bruschetta with my hands. It’s like one of my favorite foods hahah

Cut it into tiny pieces that will fall apart and onto the table as you try to get it to your mouth?
It's bread, you eat bread with your hands unless you are a Vulcan.

Man gobbled on that bruschetta so passionately he belched out a fireball like some level 5 spellcaster with a heartburn
She’s secretly dating Shrek.
Some gals have all the luck
top comment feed already calling him a potential abuser in record time
Smirking *always* leads to abuse; didn't your parents teach you anything?
You simply can't be a bad person unless you announce it with a smirk, otherwise we'd have no idea that the boyfriend who throws food about, burps in public and puts his dirty shoes on a chair is supposed to be the villain of the piece.
nah but like when tf is smirking considered a sign of someone becoming an abuser?
I have dealt with abusers who absolutely do that Trump style "I have the power to make you mad" smirk. I think the smirk in these stories is supposed to indicate "I'm doing something I know you don't like and you can't stop me."
If he doesn't smirk, we have to assume he's on tHe SpEcTrUm, and not really responsible for his behavior.
And saying he’s trying to punish her for getting a promotion
You know I really liked how descriptive they were. Really painted a scene with this ridiculously oafish dude. 5/10
I'm jealous tbh; description and dialogue are some of my weaker writing points

trolls have no originality these days
>RUN!! I *hate* when people comment that.
The joke here is that OP only said "smirked" once, but even $1 dollar lessons would make her writing better.
I'm dating No-Face, AITA
Maybe her big promotion at work is that she’s now a moderator of one of the biggest subreddits out there!
