I'll start.

AIBU to be pissed off with my recluse sister?

My sister is an introvert to the point where she won't even speak to me anymore. We live together but I literally don't see her from one day to the next and TBH I'd like a bit of company. Also it's bloody cold in our house, especially walking past DSis room, anyone got any recommendations for portable heaters? Preferably from John Lewis.

AIBU to change my appearance and everything about me so I can get together with a bloke I'm in love with? Should I be expecting him to love me as I am and not make me feel so under pressure to be more like him and his cool friends?

AIBU - my super wealthy Fil just refuses to help me. My son has gotten himself into some trouble and I don't have the money to rescue him. My FiL has loads. Too much. Some might say he's the richest man on the planet. Would I be unreasonable to go NC with him? What if he wants to get his lawyers involved? Is FiL being unreasonable? I haven't heard from my lame ass DH so he is of no use whatsoever.

Any suggestions or ideas?

I've grown up in this home for orphaned children and it's a really nice place considering the circumstances. I've recently started learning about medicine, from the Dr who runs the home but one of the aspects of what he wanta me to do is troubling me. He helps women deal with unwanted pregnancies but I really don't like this aspect of his practice as I identify myself with those unborn children. Would I be unreasonable to refuse to take part in regards to learning this procedure?

People are probably going to say IABU but hear me out .

I've been in charge of our town's annual festival for years now. It always goes really well and everyone enjoys it. The thing is, I'm getting bored of doing the same thing over and over again. It's just not challenging enough!

I went to visit the next town along from us and their annual festival is so much more fun! I would really love to get involved and I'm sure they would benefit from my expertise.

WIBU to kidnap the annual festival organiser in the next town so I can run it instead? I'm sure he'd like some time off and I'd definitely look after him well during the kidnapping so it's a win/win, right?

AIBU?

All I wanted was to be the most beautiful woman in the world. But my DH died and left me with his little brat. The girl is gorgeous. I mean GORGEOUS. AIBU to send her into the woods to die? I mean, she's got no father and really no prospects.

Genius bread idea OP!

I am really annoyed at my ex. We used to work together and he got me pregnant but as our line of work was dangerous, I decided I should give it up. I went and worked in a record store for a while and met a nice new man who asked me to marry him. So far so good!
But THEN, at our wedding rehearsal my ex came in unannounced with some of my old work colleagues and killed everyone! I was left in a coma for a few years. WIBU to hunt them all down and kill them?

AIBU - my parents want me to marry the son of one of their family friends. I don't want to. I went for a walk to clear my head and found a cottage and an old lady made me some cakes. I brought the cakes home and my Mum seems to have eaten some, as have my siblings. They are all acting strangely at the moment. The old lady said that the way to help my mum and siblings is to heal a rift in the family but I haven't the first foggiest what that means. My dad is all gungho about hosting a celebration to announce my engagement so he's really distracted about that.
AIBU to decide who I want to marry by myself? AIBU to wonder what the old lady put in those cakes too???
