Twins Apart: The Astonishingly Parallel Lives of the Jim Twins

The Jim twins, who were separated at birth only to be reunited at the age of 39, lived incredibly parallel lives. Each of them had married and later divorced a woman named Linda, and they were presently married to women named Betty. Coincidentally, both had sons whom they named James Allan and owned dogs called Toy. Remarkably, they both drove the same type of car, were employed in the security sector, and had a regular vacation spot: the same beach in Florida.

Guy Who Disowned Sister for Marrying His Bully Asks The Internet if He’s the Bad Guy. They Assure Him He’s Not

Whatever your dilemma in life, chances are there’s a subreddit for it. For instance, if you’re struggling with whether or not you handled a situation in the right way, there’s the AITA subreddit, where you can ask strangers, “Am I the asshole?” for a given situation. Redditors then (mostly) comment with YTA or NTA, meaning You’re The Asshole or Not The Asshole.

Usually people get a mix of comments, but the following thread, “AITA for cutting my sister out of my life for getting engaged to my worst highschool bully?” gave user /MightBeAnAsshole overwhelming support in the form of over 5,000 comments.

Here’s the set up…

So yeah, the bully is borderline psychotic.

Maybe one isolated incident of somebody getting hurt, but breaking an arm and a detached retina?

One user rightly pointed out again that the bully isn’t even sorry… which is nuts.

Some saw the sister’s point of view, but that still doesn’t make the guy an asshole

Some wanted the guy to remind the bully of their past deeds

As you can probably tell, I completely agree with the sentiments the other reddit users shared. There’s no reason why you have to keep somebody in your life who condones somebody who was physically or emotionally abusive to you. Or, in this case, both!!!

If people do reprehensible shit, they should pay some kind of consequence. And sometimes the best way to get back at them is completely deny them your time or attention.
