'I see her putting on the tight, less nice dress': Couple gets into argument over dress code for a work event

Now, all dress codes are dumb, but this guy may have actually been in the right. This thread was posted to Reddit's r/AmITheA**hole subreddit by u/ProfessorBotanist, who shared that he (a Latinx trans male professor) was invited to a work event for the fall quarter and was allowed to bring his fiancé (a cis white woman from a far wealthier background). 

 

The identities in this story are significant since the Redditor pointed out the various micro-aggressions he experiences at work. You get the sense that this was an important event for him, and an anxiety-inducing one too. Which is why when his fiancé gave him two options for her dress and then refused to listen to his recommendation for the more formal option, he got upset. It's his event after all, and there's already a lot of baggage attached to it. He doesn't need her to make things more uncomfortable for him as well Sometimes, being a good partner actually does mean sucking it up and just being supportive. Who knew?!

Well, here is the latest slightly controversial internet item! This mysterious Christmas ornament was presented to the internet on r/mildlyinfuriating, with a simple premise: is this ornament a cat or a dog?

'Don't ruin it like everything else in your life': 20+ relatable fails for self-deprecating "adults"

It's hard being a horrible adult. Trust me. We understand and know this experience all too well. You have a long-running list of all the things you need to do to get your act together, but also Netflix is right there. And also your bed is so comfy. And also why make your own coffee when you can spend $8 on a latte at the overpriced café around the corner, which also charges $2 extra for oat milk, and - let's be honest - you're probably also going to get a pastry too. We may not ever make it to that list, but instead, we did waste our valuable time compiling another list: one full of relatable, self-deprecating content as an olive branch to you, dear reader, who we hope also feels like trash 99.9% of the time.
