Teacher: Given a post that is a real-life anecdote of a complex ethical situation and an associated claim about its type, verify if the claim is true or not. The claim asks if the posts are historical or hypothetical. The posts are "HISTORICAL" when the author has already done something and they are "HYPOTHETICAL" when the author is considering doing something in the future. Say 'yes' if the claim is true otherwise say 'no'
Teacher: Now, understand the problem? If you are still confused, see the following example:
CLAIM : The following post is HISTORICAL. POST : Background: I have ocd and the only contamination issue I have is around food. Both parents know this. What has lead me to ask this question is this mornings reaction from parent B.

This morning parent b offered to make me breakfast, I responded how I always do: that’s very kind but I’m happy to come make it myself. Parent b said it was no trouble. I accepted. Two slices of toast came and apu I check the toast for signs of mould. First piece had no issues, I ate it. Second piece however had something green growing on the edge. I cut this bit off but I couldn’t shake in my head that the whole piece must be contaminated and so I took the toast back and apologised that I couldn’t eat it cos of the mould and we checked the date on the bread and it said the 30th December. Nearly a week past its best before. Parent b apologised and we threw it away. No drama.

Nearly identical situation occurred about 6 months ago with parent a. Parent a offered to make me a toasted sandwich. I said that would be very kind but I was happy to make it myself. Parent a said it was no problem, I accepted. When the sandwich came I checked the bread for mould and found green and white stuff growing down one side of the bread. I take it back to the kitchen and explain that it has mould and I’m sorry but I can’t eat it. I will make myself something else. Parent a goes ballistic. I’m “ungrateful and don’t trust them and did I really think they’d feed me mould?” I pointed out the mould- clearly visible. “Well someone must’ve not sealed the bread package properly (ie me) and that’s how it got mouldy.” I asked if parent a had checked the date and that just seemed to escalate their reaction. They stormed out screaming and crying. I checked the bread date and it was 2 or 3 days past the best before.

Aita in either situation? Parent a’s reaction made me think I was. But now I’ve had the same situation with parent b and they didn’t get angry or pissed off maybe I wasn’t the asshole? Obviously I think I need to just make my own food. Then I can’t cause trouble.
Solution: yes
Reason: The post clearly mentions an event in the past when the author asked some questions to his/her parents and also describes about their reactions on that day. Hence this should be HISTORICAL.

Now, solve this instance: CLAIM : The following post is HISTORICAL. POST : I’m a freshman in college and I have one roommate and we share one room. We are friendly but each have our own friend groups and interests. We are both night owls but I guess  I’m a little different because I don’t stay out late or come back to the room later than 11/12 on weekdays. On the other hand, she will sometimes comes back to the room at 3 or 4 in the morning when we both have class the next morning. Whenever she comes into the room that late and starts shifting around and turning on lights etc., it wakes me up. Every time. Sometimes I stay up a little later and wait for her to get back before I go to sleep just so I don’t have to wake up and try to fall back asleep again. Other times, I just can’t wait and I go to sleep just to inevitably be woken up hours later by her entering the room. If it were a Friday or Saturday night, I wouldn’t mind but it’s every day of the week. I finally couldn’t take it anymore and told her my issue and asked her to not stay out later than 12-1 on weekdays and that if she needed to stay up late doing work or whatever it is she does, she could do it in the room. She says that she is trying to be as quiet as possible and then got an attitude with me for trying to give her a curfew. She continues to stay out late and now, it seems she isn’t even trying to be respectful of the fact that I am trying to sleep. AITA for asking her not to stay out late? And WIBTA if I brought the issue to my RA?
