So please smash that like button and subscribe and turn on notifications for new stories from Reddit every single day. Karen's sister-in-law gets banned from our Thanksgiving this year. My mother-in-law and I do not get along, but I'm really proud to say we call this ceasefire for the sake of my husband. I know this might sound childish, but it took blood, sweat and tears for us to even be in the same room. Mother-in-law did some awful things to me, and it took work to forgive her. I did some things I'm not proud of, but at some point I realized I was just hurting my husband. Mother-in-law was an absolute monster at our wedding. She made planning a nightmare. She embarrassed me at my bridal shower, and she wore something that could have passed for a wedding gown. Right after the wedding, we had a financial setback and had to stay with Mother-in-law. I know this is petty and not defending it, but I was still upset about the wedding. Mother-in-law was having some guy over, and demanded we hide ourselves away. She really, really liked this guy, cooked a fancy dinner, and spent like an hour getting dressed. So I messed with the dinner she cooked, and poured flour on her when the doorbell rang. Again, I'm not defending it right now, but we were in this awful war mindset. Yeah, Mother-in-law kicked us out of the house for that stunt, and eventually I grew up, and reached out to make peace. That was two years ago, and Mother-in-law is still with him, and they're getting married in January. I've apologized to her. She's never going to apologize to me, but we've made our peace. We bought our first house recently, and had a large dinner party. Also, I'm hosting Thanksgiving this year. Mother-in-law said I can have it because it's the worst holiday. But hey, it's a start. Everyone knows how excited I am about finally having a house to host in. At the dinner party, Mother-in-law was getting a lot of attention for being engaged, and people wanting wedding details, and sister-in-law decided to give a toast about how she knew her future stepfather was the right guy, because he stuck around after that incident, and she told everyone about it in detail, and he calmed Mother-in-law down and made her dinner while she washed the flower off. I get sister-in-law's point, but it was humiliating. Also, it pains an unfair picture, because she left out all the crap Mother-in-law has done to me. Most of my guests were horrified. This was supposed to be a nice adult evening, and she's bringing up how immature I was right out of college. Mother-in-law laughed. Father-in-law laughed, because he is her ex and loves the flower story, but everyone else was in shock, and it made the vibe really weird. I called sister-in-law out after the party, and she laughed and said it was a funny story. I told her it was humiliating, and she said, "Well, it was true." I said, as of right now, she's banned from the house, because she disrespected me in my own house. This means Thanksgiving since it's coming up. Mother-in-law asked me to reconsider, because, "Well, you did do that," and because sister-in-law doesn't have anyone else to spend Thanksgiving with. I stood firm, and now Mother-in-law is saying she will stay home and cook for sister-in-law. My husband is mad at his mom for picking sister-in-law, but said he will back me. Sister-in-law swears she was just kidding, and I'm overreacting. You're the jerk. If you want things to change, big if, you're going to have to get on the high road and stay there no matter what the provocation. If you do that long enough, either they'll stop provoking you, or you'll stop minding, a win for you no matter what. For me, when I feel righteous indignation, it's a red flag that I'm about to make a childish mistake. It's easier to take the high road if I stay off my high horse. You're the jerk. You sound mean. You did a thing that obviously everyone knows about, but you obviously aren't over it, and are somehow using that to exclude your sister-in-law from a family gathering. Also, regardless of the rift between you and Mother-in-law, you were living under her roof and tried to sabotage a date that turned into a lifelong relationship. Come on. Grow up and get some perspective. You're just asking for future wars with that attitude. Everyone sucks here, but in degrees. Regardless of what Mother-in-law did, your behavior was extremely childish. You poured flour on her because of her wedding behavior when she was putting a roof over your head? You were lucky she didn't grab something and defend herself. Frankly, that they could turn it into a funny story and laugh about it is a good thing. Instead, they could still be telling people what an awful jerk your husband married. It's embarrassing, yes, and sister-in-law was not thoughtful to repeat it, but banning her from the holiday table was overdoing it. Of course, Mom is going to celebrate the holiday with her daughter since you banned her. Your husband shouldn't be surprised. Neither should you. Well, who do you think is the jerk? OB or sister-in-law? Please let us know. If y'all had a reality show, I would totally watch it. Am I the jerk for deliberately ruining my friend's surprise birthday party? My friend, Kate's 25th birthday party was last week, and a few weeks earlier, her boyfriend Rob contacted me to help him plan a surprise party for her. Basically, the plan was for me to drive her to the city so we could have a lunch to celebrate together. Just the two of us, because some of our other friends and Rob wouldn't be free that day. Except they actually were all free and would be waiting there for us, and he had rented out and decorated a private room in a restaurant. Essentially, I just needed not to divulge the truth, which I had no problem doing until the day of when we were driving down together. Kate suddenly got very melancholy and said how she doesn't think Rob cares for her. They've been dating for years. He can't even take off work for her birthday, and he probably hasn't planned anything at all. She was really starting to work herself up, and even began crying. I came clean and told Kate what was going on, and asked her to pretend to be surprised for everyone's benefit. She cheered up considerably in the moment and thanked me for reassuring her, but she's not a great actor. So when the moment came, she didn't act surprised, and then let slip that I had told her beforehand. Rob is now pretty mad at me for ruining the surprise and says I should have found a different way to reassure her that he and our friends still care for her. Our mutual friends are divided on this. Kate isn't mad, but did mention it was a shame that the surprise aspect was ruined. I honestly don't think I'm the jerk here, but we'll accept others' input. Edit. Dang, y'all are just as divided as my friend group. That not the jerks seem to be coming from people who hate surprise parties for themselves, of which I am one personally, so maybe that's where my knee-jerk response came from. Not the jerk. You had a crying friend on the verge of a breakdown, believing that nobody liked her and that her birthday was forgotten. That must have been an uncomfortable sight, and you told her about the surprise to cheer her up. There was nothing malicious in your actions, and you were put on the spot. I'm sure everyone will say you ruined the surprise, and you should have done X or Y, but hindsight is 20/20. You had to make a judgment call, and whilst it may not have been the right one, it at least reassured your friends she was loved, and she didn't need to work herself off. Edit. Another point I'd like to bring up is OP was driving at the time, to all the people who are saying she should have said X, Y, and Z. Maybe the reason OP didn't have time to think of an excuse was because she was on the road, and perhaps mostly concentrating on our driving. You're the jerk. Count me in as a person who hates actively trying to make someone feel unscared for in order to make a surprise more impactful. Pssst. You've heard of Pizza Hut's $7 deal lovers menu, right?

I would not be happy if I was thrown a surprise party. That being said, it seems like Kate was okay with her boyfriend's surprise. It also seems like she would have been comforted by you simply saying, "I'm sure Rob has planned something special. He really cares about you." So because your reaction seems more about how you would have felt in Kate's shoes instead of what would have actually worked best for Kate, you're the jerk. Even though I agree with you about surprises, there were many ways to comfort her without spoiling things. Not the jerk. Why is it so many people value the boyfriend's achievement of surprise higher than the emotional comfort of the girlfriend? That being said, I'm sure there would have been better ways to comfort her, like someone suggested. Tell her that boyfriend was working on something for some other time or whatever. But as you can see, even though I have all the time in the world to come up with a different scenario or two or three, they all escape me. I can imagine that you must have been under quite some more stress being in that situation. So yes, despite there being better options, I'll give you a pass for that. What do you think? Is I'll be a jerk for ruining the surprise party or not? Please let us know. Her heart was in the right place. I don't think she's a jerk. Just a surprise party ruiner. That's all. Am I the jerk for calling my wife selfish, for refusing to come to my sister's wedding out of jealousy? When I met my wife, my family, not this specific sister, were jerks to her. My mom found her annoying and said she shouldn't have to interact at all. And when I didn't let that fly, she was very rude to my girlfriend. My younger sister said I was ruining our family and became very aggressive. I had to cut them out of my life, which was the hardest thing I've ever done. I still have a hard time thinking about that. I can just never speak to my mom again. But I knew that was what I had to do to be a good husband. My middle sister was never really involved. When I cut my mom out, my younger sister cut me out, and my middle sister, Jane, said she would stand by me, though she thought I should fix things with our mom. My wife and I have two beautiful kids, and Jane is the only one in the family who has ever met them, and really the only person I have left from my family of origin. My mom wasn't at my wedding. I've never met her husband, never met my niece from my other sister, and it still makes me sad. Due to the issues with my mom, my wife and I had a tiny wedding. It was just the courthouse and a few friends. I know that wasn't her childhood dream. She's totally the princess type who had been dreaming about a wedding since she was a child. My mom had always said she would pay for mine, but obviously didn't. My mom got married a year after I did, and I found my wife creeping on her social media and looking at the pictures and crying. I comforted her the best I could, but she was very upset that my mom didn't deserve it, and that she would never get the chance to have her own wedding. Now Jane is getting married, and my mom is paying for everything. My mom has a lot of money, and I know Jane's wedding is going to be over the top. I'm going to be walking Jane down the aisle. My mom and other sister will be there, but we've seen them plenty of times during the no-contact, and it has never been an issue. Neither are interested in resuming contact, and they stay away from us. My wife said her issue is completely about how much it hurts to see Jane get the wedding she didn't get, and she said she isn't going to come with me because it will hurt too badly. I asked her to reconsider, because I'll feel awkward being there on my own, and Jane is the only family I have left. My wife said she's sorry, but it just hurts too much to see someone else have a big wedding. Since our wedding, she has avoided others, and declined being a bridesmaid a couple years ago, because she said she couldn't get child care, which wasn't true, and she knew I could get those days off work. I called her selfish for not coming to Jane's wedding, and said I feel that she doesn't care about me, and cares more about a party. My wife was absolutely devastated, and said I invalidated her feelings, and I didn't try to understand. Things have been awkward for the past two days over what I said. Not the jerk. Honestly, from reading all that, I see why your mom and other sister don't like her. Stocking your mom's social media and crying over her wedding photos? Refusing to go to your middle sister's wedding, because she didn't get the dream wedding she wanted? I'm sorry, but your wife is way too hung up on this wedding she never had, which I get, but at the same time she's letting that influence how she treats the sister that didn't do anything to her, and that's not right. Not the jerk. A wedding is a significant milestone in Jane's life, and she deserves to celebrate it with her family, including her sister-in-law, your wife. There's no reason why your wife won't come to her wedding besides her jealousy. She's jealous and insecure, and is willing to compromise your and her relationship with Jane, because she can't control her intense jealousy. Jane will know she didn't come to the wedding because she didn't want to, and not because she couldn't. It's utterly transparent. You can definitely get a babysitter for your kids months in advance. Expecting her to believe it is just assuming she's ignorant. There's no excuse to circumvent the wedding invitation. People do above and beyond to show up to their family's weddings. It's a minor effort to arrange things, such as time off of work or child care for the kids during this time. The spying on others and then gossiping about them is petty as well. Jane was the only one supporting her, and she's reciprocating her this way out of sheer selfishness and envy. She's an ingrate, and she demonstrates a complete lack of consideration, gratitude, and goodwill. Let's put all the unkindness towards your wife to decide for one moment and talk about her wedding. Why did you guys have a small wedding? Were you both always counting on your mother's money to fund your wedding? When I was married, none of the parents paid for anything, and we had an awesome wedding. I don't see why your family had anything whatsoever to do with what kind of wedding you had. Is she just upset that she didn't get the money from her mother-in-law that she had hoped for? It seems a very strange thing to rely on. What am I missing? Well, who do you think is acting like the jerk? O.P. or his wife? Please let us know. I'm worried for her to be honest. That level of jealousy towards someone who's done nothing to her seems it could be a bit unhealthy. Hurry up and keep changing your tire. Um, okay. This was many, many years ago, but it sticks in my mind to this day. I was a contracted service provider, tow truck driver, for a major roadside assistance/travel organization, though the company I worked for was quite small. I had been sent to a lakeside neighborhood in my popular northwest city, a neighborhood full of hip restaurants and cutesy boutiques, to change a tire on a new BMW. This was back when all cars had a spare tire, which should tell you how long ago this was. I had my own tools, but for the new BMWs, it was always recommended to use the tools that came with the car, since they were less likely to cause damage. I had no problem with that, since the jack that came with the car was quite easy to use. It had a crank instead of a jack handle. The only issue was that there needed to be enough clearance between a jack and nearby immovable objects, such as, say, a curve. This particular vehicle was parked very close to the curve. My normal SOP is to ask the customer to slowly move the car away from the curb to avoid damage to the rim of the flat tire. No one has an issue with this. Normally. The chucklehead owner of the vehicle refused to move it, claiming that it was going to ruin the tire. I told him that if he moved it slowly, it wouldn't damage anything. He wasn't buying it. I pointed out that the tire was already flat and likely needed to be replaced anyway, so no problem. He screeched at me, telling me to get on with it and change the tire because he had "places to be". Ah, so I got to it, wanting to be clear of this jump as quickly as possible. This car's jack had a very low gear ratio, requiring several turns to lift the car even an inch, but the force required to turn the crank was not excessive, enabling the user to quickly turn the crank until the car was raised sufficiently. The issue with the car being too close to the curb is that while the jack's crank has a hinge to fold it compactly when stored. Pssst, you've heard of Pizza Hut's $7 deal lovers menu, right?

The crank must be unfolded completely to provide adequate leverage to turn and lift the car. But with it so close to the curb, the bottom of the arc of the crank's movement caused the handle to just barely clear the curb. Only problem was that I was holding the crank as it came around to the curb. Not enough room between the crank handle and the curb for my fat fingers. Yes, as a matter of fact, I did skin two knuckles down to the bone with the scars still present to this day. And yes, I did use some colorful unprofessional language. Captain Chucklehead heard this and smugly announced that he was going to report my horrifying language and get me fired. He then reiterated his desire for me to get the lead out and finish changing the tire. Oh, really? See, my first aid kit was back in the truck, several dozen yards away. Well, since I didn't want to delay this person's day any longer than absolutely necessary, I just continued to change the tire, splattering crimson jewels of blood on the rim of the flat, on the spare, on the jack, on the lug wrench, on the fender. I made sure not to waste a single cell on the ground. I even managed to get a nice, fat, drippy drop on the window. His face went pale as he saw the biohazard scene unfolding all over his precious car. I even made him sign the form with a blood-smeared pen, though I gave him the opportunity to get his own. After he nearly caused an accident leaving the parking space, probably on his way to the car wash, I was then able to tend to my poor knuckles and get ready for whatever else the day would bring. Never heard a single squawk from my boss or from corporate. Forget that guy. Am I the jerk for refusing to testify for my dad in court? My mom and dad split up when my brother, 24, male, and I, 25, female, were very young. Since then, dad has brought home lots of girlfriends who do not last long. We have a half-sister, Diana, who's 10, born in 2011. My dad and her mom share custody. In 2019, his girlfriend at the time, Laura, who was told she was infertile and was 40, got pregnant. She told my dad the baby was a miracle and she was going to keep him. My dad was very clear from the start that he's not happy with having another kid, that it's Laura's project and that he feels too old, 58, to have a new baby. Laura told him he could have the part he wanted in the baby's life. My half brother, Leo, was born a year and a half ago. He's very cute and happy. My dad was proud when he was born, showing pictures to everyone and all. For around 8-10 months, Laura and Leo lived at my dad's. However, whenever I would call him at that time and ask, "How are you?" he would reply angrily that he was obviously not well, having been trapped into having a new baby that he did not want, that he was deprived of his freedom and is overall upset with having to take care of two kids, Diana and Leo. He would openly say that in front of Diana and Leo. He began treating Laura worse and worse and just leaving all the time during the weeks or weekends, so Laura would have to take care of Leo and Diana. She has health problems and had two heart attacks during that time, so he reluctantly took care of my siblings when she was recovering, but she still did the cooking, dishes and stuff. After that time, Laura and Dad talked things through and Laura decides it's best if she moves out to another city, a city where my dad goes vacationing a lot because he has a boat there, where she can get her own apartment, she has her own job, and so that Dad can come see her and Leo when he feels like it, without feeling trapped. He agrees and she moves, starts building a good life for her and Leo, subscribes to a sports club, meets new friends, Leo is at childcare near home, etc. Laura keeps in touch with the whole family and we're welcome to stay at hers anytime. Fast forward a few weeks and my dad is telling everyone she's a horrible monster for taking Leo away from his dad and siblings. He would go to the city she's at, randomly, ask to see Leo and bring him back to his house and another city for a few days. Laura does not know when she's seeing Leo again. When she refused to let him see Leo for a few days, 18 days, because she can't stand the uncertainty and needs my dad to respect his schedule, he has gone to Leo's daycare, taken Leo and just left without her knowing. Laura has filed a lawsuit against him to obtain full custody and my dad would have the right to visit Leo on the weekends and vacation under a fixed schedule. My dad wants me to testify for him in court, but in my opinion, he brought this on himself. I refused to testify for him and he now refuses to talk to me. Am I the jerk? Edit. Thank you all so much for your comments, inputs, and for sharing your personal stories. I feel very relieved that he consensus is that I'm not the jerk. In fact, my dad is. I'll put into practice all the very good advice I've gotten on how to handle my relationship with him, or lack thereof, and with my siblings. My dad has also asked my brother, 24, male, to testify for him and my brother has told me he doesn't know what to do. I don't know if I'll show him this thread, but I sure have a lot of arguments now to convince him not to testify. Not the jerk. You should absolutely testify, just not on his behalf. What your dad is doing is wrong, and I hope Laura is successful in protecting her son from him. Does Diana's mother know that your father bad mounts his daughter in front of her? Because I also want Diana protected from him. O.P. Yes, she does. I think he asked her to testify as well, and she also refused for the moment. She does not want to get involved, as to not jeopardize the relationship she has with him, and not affect Diana too much. As for testifying against him, I have considered it. If Laura is not successful, and the matter goes to hire courts, I just don't want to get involved if I can avoid it. I don't want my dad to never talk to me again. Edit. I should add that I am not from the US, so the US legal system does not apply here. In my country, I will be able to give a new testimony before the court of appeal in a custody case. I am in the legal field, so can vouch for this. I will also triple check with Laura's lawyer when I get to speak to her. Ever served someone you think was trying to provoke a confrontation by not tipping? Had a guy with a $43 tab, sirloin and eliminate. Pay with $43 cash. From his manner, with the first thing he said to me, I knew it was going to be a stiff, but he still got the best service I can give with 8 tables active at dinner. Any delay that occurred was due to our kitchen being understaffed and overwhelmed, rang his stuff in within 15 seconds of him ordering and homie got his food immediately after it popped in the window. After Dude paid and I counted the cash and closed the check, I could almost feel him trying to gauge my reaction, and it might be in my head, but I swear he wanted me to say something to him, so he could do a little bit about entitlement or something. I don't know. Like, it cost me a couple bucks to serve him, but whatever. Like, seriously? I don't really give a hoot about 10 bucks one way or the other anymore, but it did make me wonder if this is something other servers or bar have felt before. Usually a stiff is just that, but I swear it had some kind of experimental vibe, or maybe the dude was trying to make a TikTok, or maybe I'm a narcissist with main character syndrome, but still, anyone else where it walked like a duck and quacked like a duck, but it was a goose egg? Update. So my guy came back in tonight. I think he was maybe kind of surprised since I was bar last night and main dining room tonight. I decided again against making it an issue and gave him the most aggressively good service I could manage. Had his iced tea and bread within 45 seconds of taking his drink order, had the calamari out about 2 and a half minutes after that, entree out the second and hit the window. Check already ready in hand when he asked for it, with half of his entree left to eat. Wish him very enthusiastically a fantastic evening. He left 20 on 55. I'm still not certain if it was to balance out last night, or if it was some sort of test that I had passed, or what. Regardless, it helped balance out the couple inevitable rough Sunday night tables. You've heard of Pizza Hut's $7 deal lovers menu, right?

I knew that he got excellent service, and there was nothing wrong with his experience, so I simply said, "Nope, tipping is optional." So he asked me again if I wanted to know. I said, "Nope, tipping is optional, and it's your right to choose not to tip." He asked me a third time if I wanted to know why he didn't leave a tip, and I have to endure his ridiculous ego, because he's asking me this while using our handheld debit machines, so I can't easily exit the situation. I need to wait for his transaction to process. Finally, when his transaction was complete, I saved for the last time. Nope, tipping is optional, and you have a great day, and finally escape. Thankfully, one of my other tables overheard the whole thing and expressed their disgust with his behavior and left me a generous tip to make up for his jerkness. Reply.

Then the check came, and it was $79, so they gave me $80, so I said, "I'll be right back with your change," to which one of them said, "Oh, you better," as they all laughed. I get back and hand them the dollar in some change, and they asked, "So, you have to tip out at the end of the night, right? How much is it?" Typically, it's 3% of my total sales. So, you're paying a couple bucks to serve us? That sucks. They all laughed and left the restaurant. Am I the jerk for refusing to take my name off the deed to my mother-in-law's home? Me and my partner have been together for eight years, married for two of them. Five years ago, we bought a home together, a small two-bedroom unit just to see if we could co-exist without ending one another, with the intention of only staying a few years before we got married, and then upgraded to something larger. Three years on, we had enough of a deposit to do just that, when my partner's mother came to us asking for help. She wanted to buy a place, but didn't have anything in the way of savings. She was tired of renting, as it was becoming more and more expensive. We talked about the issue, knowing that if we agreed to help, it meant delaying our own upgrade by a further three years at minimum. With some hesitation on our part, we nevertheless did the right thing, and helped out his mother by giving her $90,000. The sum total of all of our savings at the time, making it clear it was just alone, and she bought a place, also with the aid of her other son. Recently, my partner has been talking to me about getting my name taken off the documentation to the house, so it is only her name and her two sons on all the paperwork. I know his mother has been in his ear about it, because he only ever brings it up after a solo visit tour. For a while, I avoided the conversation, but recently, my husband has had an actual conversation with a lawyer to draw up paperwork to have my name legally removed. When I found out, I told my husband we needed to have a serious talk, and I told him honestly that I would not remove my name from the documentation, because, to date, his mother has not paid either of us back a single cent of the money we lent her. This angered my husband, who said I had agreed to take my name off the documentation, that's why he spoke to a lawyer in the first place. When I insisted, I never agreed, and that I was just protecting us both by insisting our name stay on all the documentation, he called me paranoid that his mother would never cheat us. Now I feel guilty. Am I the jerk for refusing to remove my name from the documentation, seeing as I did help pay for the place she bought, and without our help, she would still be stuck renting? Not the jerk. Your mother-in-law has already cheated the two of you by not paying back the $90,000 you lent her. I wouldn't take my name off a single thing until every dollar loaned was repaid, in full, not payments that can be dragged out over years or forgotten about. If this isn't acceptable, then you might want to suggest they sell the house and pay you back what is owed. Not the jerk, and your husband tried to gaslight you. I would talk to a lawyer of my own, and it's time to start demanding the money mother-in-law owes to start being repaid. You were incredibly generous, but now you need to ensure you won't be ripped off. Why is he wanting your name off? His calling you paranoid is unacceptable. If anything, you need to check that he is not forgiven alone behind your back, and that his existence is legally binding. Please report back. To be honest, I would be going for a lawyer and a trial separation in your place. Never lend money to family. Don't call ladies girls. That's what somebody wrote on the receipt of their 10% tip. I, 24, mail, served a group of seven ladies that came in for lunch. They were all approximately late 30s. We had two servers on, and it was pretty busy lunch rush. On top of a few inside and outside tables, I had a party of 12 I was finishing when they said, and they were arriving little by little. When they all arrive, I say, "Hey, did you girls need a few minutes, or could I grab anyone anything?" One of them volunteered to start, went around and got the whole order. Everyone was nice, polite, totally perfect. We have a two-course lunch meal, appetizer, and an entree. Of course, when it's busy, the food will take a bit longer, considering the kitchen has to wait for our fire tickets. I get their apps out, and for bigger tables during lunch, I always fire them immediately, especially this time since the kitchen's busy. I also must add, at this point, they're one of the two tables sitting outside in the 40-degree weather. We still had plenty of room inside. I'm busy inside, at a computer, and one lady approaches me and says they need their entrees now, since they need to get back to a meeting. Mind you, they said nothing about being in a rush, the six-plus times I've been at the table already, nonetheless when they ordered. I say they'll be a few minutes, and I literally told her I didn't know her group was in a rush. I don't assume that of any table unless they tell me they're on a time frame. Why not just get fast food? A few minutes later, I'm running the food out, and the same lady meets me halfway, and says they want it all to go, and the check. I get that, but like, of course, I sorta just negotiated with her, and dropped the food to the table and gave them boxes. They paid and left, on the bottom of the receipt, it read, "Stop calling ladies girls." Reply. Many, many moons ago, my week-long training before they opened knew Olive Garden in my town included a portion on using language like this. Using anything which could be misinterpreted was highly discouraged, especially guys. Using folks and y'all seems to be the most neutral, and I've never gotten myself in trouble since switching to those two. Likewise, we were trained to never say "no problem" because it's "no" and "problem". That one I've actually taken to heart. Even in casual conversation, I now say things like "happy to" or "my pleasure", and I've actually been complimented on being so positive all the time. It's fake positivity, mind you, but it seems to work. Support our channel by joining as a member today, and we'll give you a shout-out in our next video. Or come watch this video next.
