PROBLEM: Is AUTHOR wrong in the post ? POST : OK, so trying to explain this goofy situation in the least-jargony way possible: 

I'm currently rowing crew in college. It's a good bit of fun to get out on the river when the weather's nice, but I'm not incredibly into the whole competition part of it (meaning up to now I haven't much cared about being the best on the team or anything). The friend I joined up with is much more into the sport aspect of it; he trains super hard and has big regatta aspirations down the line. 

So last week we had seat-races on the ergs to determine who we'd train with to get ready for the spring season. For the freshman the coveted spots are the four dudes who make 1st Boat (four guys with the fastest times). I wouldn't normally have been that invested but the cox (person who sits in stern and calls out the stroke) is a girl that I'm really sweet on. Making 1st boat would mean we'd be spending a lot of time together. Not at all unusual for a cox and a rower to couple up in the season.  

So during the seat race I'm next to my buddy on the ergs, and near the end of the race we're pretty close so I put the power on and edge him out. Now I'm rowing 1st Boat and he's not. He tries to be a good sport but he's appropriately pissed, mostly because he knows I don't care as much about it as he does. 

I won't lie; I feel like a real dickhead at the moment. Me and him aren't really on speaking terms currently (he's steaming), and I'm considering the fact that perhaps I've fucked up a friendship over something super petty. 

ON THE OTHER HAND: I'm faster than he is. Arguably we've got a better team for it. Does the reason even matter? Am I an enormous asshole or is that just life?  

SOLUTION: no

PROBLEM: Is AUTHOR wrong in the post ? POST : I DM for a group of 5 people: Will, Lorraine, Ben, Issac and Holly. I met the latter three at uni, while Will and Lorraine (a couple) are friends of a friend. I'm not am experienced DM but I really like this group as there's always a fun atmosphere around the table. As an additional advantage, the group doesn't have anyone that's a creep which is a real luxury. A while ago we were watching a bunch of YouTubers playing some D&amp;D who were dressed up as their characters. I can't remember who suggested it but somehow the idea that we should do the same got floated around and as it sounded like fun, so everyone agreed. Next session everyone had their costumes ready and everyone looked great considering that we didn't have much time/budget. The session went really well. All of the group seemed to be acting in character way more than usual and as we wrapped up I chalked it down as a really great night and got a lot of great feedback from people there.

A few days later though, Holly messaged me privately outside of the group chat, saying how the costumes Lorraine and Will were wearing had made her feel uncomfortable and that she didn't think they were appropriate, that they were unnecessarily showing off and made the rest of us look inadequate, even if it was unintentional. She also asked me to ask them to wear more next session. Now, I wouldn't say anyone at the table was unattractive or overweight, but Will and Lorraine are both highly physically active people and have the bodies to match, and their costumes didn't cover a lot.

Will's character is a monk, and his costume was basically Dhalsim off Street Fighter: shirtless and with warpaint covering his chest and face. Lorraine meanwhile plays a sorcerer and was wearing a woven bikini top, harem pants and African style body paint (apparently you can't get elf ears for black people). As a DM/DND player in general, I like to think I have a really low tolerance for creeps and the usual shittyness that can come with a hobby mostly populated by nerdy guys and take every complaint I get about someone's behaviour seriously, but I'm not sure I can with this. Like if they'd showed up wearing, say bondage gear I might've had a word but they made sense for them as characters, they weren't showing any more skin than you'd see at the beach, and the outfits themselves wouldn't be out of place at a music festival and the designs were inventive.

Everyone else sent messages saying how much they enjoyed the last session and the effort people went to for their outfits so it just seems like a shame to stop doing it because one of us is made uncomfortable by a bit of skin (as far as I know, Holly hasn't mentioned it to Will or Lorraine). So yeah, am I an arsehole for not taking this seriously? Like I get having body issues, but I'm not sure being intimidated by physically fit people and being uncomfortable around them is a good way to go in life and the session we had in-costume was one of the best we've ever had.


SOLUTION: no

PROBLEM: Is OTHER wrong in the post ? POST : For context I’m 14
I was in my room finishing of 5 hour model kit of an robot. I had it standing up on a table behind me while I finished off the arms, my mom drunk, walks in, looks at it and says “what is this crap” gesturing to my model, she then knocks it over breaking the legs off (which took me 30 minutes to attach) and I told her to leave, not shouting, I said,l just leave,” she said it was the worst thing I had ever said and walked out crying very loudly. AITA

SOLUTION:
yes
