so, how this is going to work is that i’m going to make a few posts in the comments from characters in the chilliad. you can then decide if they are the asshole (ATA) or are not the asshole (NTA). obviously this isn’t actually reddit so the functionality isn’t quite the same, but it’s an experiment! it might fail! let’s do the best we can with the tools we’ve been given!
AITA for kicking two girls out of my fraternity house??
My (22M) girlfriend Nessa (21F) and I have been dating for a little over two years. She's in our sister sorority, and I love her very much. She's VERY hot and VERY scary.
A few week ago, she asked whether her little sister Geni (18F), could live in our frat house for the rest of the semester because she had some problems with her on-campus housing. (For context, this year at my school we had like four dorms have to shut bc they found asbestos in them so a lot of people were unhoused.) I said yes, she could sleep in my room.
After she'd been there for a couple of months, my fraternity had kind of an incident, and two of my frat brothers brought home these other two girls (20F and 21F) who had ALSO been unhoused. We sort of had to keep them because -- kind of a long story, but basically, I stole a truck? And they were in it, so they sort of had blackmail on me, but I only stole the truck as a prank, not as a real crime thing. Anyway, so we had to let them live with us and we didn't have enough space elsewhere, so I moved Geni from my room (I have 2 beds but no roommate because I'm frat president and also I mostly slept elsewhere anyway; Geni and Nessa couldn't stay together because the sorority house is a lot stricter about guests) to sleep on the couch.
When my girlfriend found out, she demanded I kick out the two girls who were staying there, or else she'd break up with me. So ... I did.
But then because of that, two of the frat brothers left, and are living off campus and don't come to any events or ... other frat activities. My girlfriend is still mad at me, even though Geni has come back, and like half the frat isn't talking to me because they blame me for the frat brothers leaving. But I think I had promised that bed to Geni first, so really, it was only fair. Also, I didn't want my girlfriend to break up with me.
I'm (20F) an education major, and I do a lot of volunteer work. One of the things that has sort of become a habit is I carry around reward stickers that say stuff like "Good job!" and "Well done!" and gold stars and things. I've kind of gotten into the habit of giving them out to my friends when they do good things. But I've noticed lately ... that I'm a little more generous with my stickers for some people. The other day someone who doesn't get a lot of stickers said that I 'played favorites.'
AITA because I tend to give stickers out more to my friends then to people I don't know that well?
I (24M) was throwing a party the other day, and I set up 2 keg lines. One of the kegs was free, and one had a $2 charge but for better beer. After the 2nd keg ran out, I replaced it with the regular beer, but people kept putting money in the money cup. Nobody complained about the beer they got from that second keg and I made a profit.
AITA because I encouraged my best friend to cheat on her boyfriend she barely even liked and they broke up and it sort of broke the entire Greek system at my school?

Ok, so earlier this year I thought it would be funny to encourage my best friend (22F) to hook up with this SUPER lame transfer student named, let's say, Marseille (20M). We were all pretty drunk, but I thought it would just be really funny. Anyway, she did it, and got caught by her boyfriend (22M) who freaked out, and they broke up. She wasn't really that sad because her boyfriend was honestly like, SO mediocre, imo. She was definitely bored as fuck with him.
The problem is that afterward, her boyfriend basically launched this whole, like, prank campaign on the fraternity that Marseille is in, and basically it's like, all this big dumb mess now and all the frats are involved and everybody's pissed and for SOME REASON everyone's mad at ME. Like, I'm not the one who hooked up with Marseille. I literally don't even like that guy. He smells like Axe body spray and he paints his nails with Sharpie.
Reddit, AITA?
EDIT: My best friend is now seeing Marseille on what seems to be, for some dumb fucking reason, a monogamous basis.
AITA because I keep reminding my ex-girlfriend that she's technically my sister?
[posted by u/SleekZeke]
My (24M) ex-girlfriend (22F) broke up with me by keying my car after she found out I'd, like, basically just kissed another girl (I was drunk, it didn't mean anything). A year after we broke up, our parents met on a singles cruise and got married (yeah). She didn't awnt to tell anyone at school because it would be super weird for people to be like, "they used to fuck, but now they're siblings."
Anyway, I've slipped up a couple of times on campus and accidentally made reference to the fact that our parents are married. She gets really mad at me every time, but I don't think it's fair that I should have to lie about my home life if I don't want to.
EDIT: Yes some of the times I've slipped up have been to win arguments, but that's just because in the heat of the moment sometimes people say things they might not say otherwise.
EDIT 2: Her mom's hot but just to be clear I'd never have sex with her.
EDIT 3: Also this ex is definitely the love of my life I just don't think I'm like, meant to be with just one woman, you know what I mean?
AITA for befriending 2 cops who were questioning me just so they wouldn't press charges?
[posted by u/Throwaway21938092312]
I was brought in for questioning a couple of days ago and basically ended up like, going full Scheherazade to waste time so that they'd have to let me go without booking me. I ended up getting pretty friendly with the cops who had brought me in, but now that everything's kind of past I'm sort of like ... um ... you guys are adults and I literally haven't even officially declared my major. Like they're perfectly nice and stuff, it's just. I've really got my own Stuff going on. Like I'm about to start a band with this girl that likes my poems and I don't really have time to get donuts with the boys.
So I (22F) run an underground fight club at my university. It's totally voluntary, but people definitely bleed a lot. One guy lost all four of his front teeth, it was brutal and SUPER dope. The rules are pretty standard Fight Club rules, although obviously with 100% less, like, terrorism and misogyny vibes. We just hit each other. All genders welcome, all fitness levels welcome.
The rules are: you can always choose to not fight, without penalty, but if you say no to 3 fights in a row you're banned for a month (basically because we don't want a lot of spectators - it's not about spectacle it's about friendly violence); you can't drink more than 2 beers before fighting but you CAN do 1 shot before every fight (maximum 4); and if you pass out you can't fight til you get a doctor's note saying you're okay for strenuous activity.
I guess important context is that technically this is "probably illegal" and "against school rules at the very least".
AITA for being in love with my best friend and letting him kiss me a bunch even though I know that he, like, doesn't realize Why He's Doing That?
[posted by u/SneekaPeeK]
Hey guys. So my best friend (20M) and I (20M) are in a frat together. I'm definitely in love with him and have been since like, literally day one (I'm gay & out). Over the course of the last year, we've had ... more than one incident of kissing. Usually for some sort of excuse/reason, where it's like ... a joke, or, like, you know, "I wonder what the Superman kiss is like" or whatever.
Obviously *I* know that this is his way of sort of testing the waters, but I don't think *he* knows that? Is it ok that I keep letting him do this and haven't say anything to him about it? I don't want to freak him out or pressure him before he's ready. But also ... I'm in love with him and I like kissing him, so it feels a little like I'm being, idk, sneaky, or something.
For context, you should know that sometimes he's really, really dumb. Like he's not STUPID but sometimes he's really dumb. It's not impossible that this is gonna take like all 4 years of college for him to figure out.
