A place to satirize, crosspost from, poke fun at, and hold meta discussions on the never-ending ridiculous stories and creative writing exercises from AITA and AITA-adjacent subs, including classic tales of your local reddit heroes seeking validation. Memes allowed, shitposts only on weekends. Taking the posts seriously is heavily discouraged.
Fockin ridic
A couple of weeks ago, I had an acquaintance over for movies and pizza, a nice sober night of fellowship. I ordered two pizzas because I assumed I would have leftovers for the next couple of days, but this guy ate most of those two pizzas. Then he had the nerve to ask me if I could order pizza from somewhere else next time because he did not like the crust.
I told him to fuck off and go home at that point, and that he really should have thanked me for feeding him that much pizza instead.
Now he decided to respond to that by going to a bar and drinking and saying I drove him to break his AA sobriety.
WTF is this? Logically I know that’s on him, but emotionally I feel the need to take full responsibility over a newbie in AA going back to drinking.
Perhaps I was too hard on him.
EDIT - if he ate all the pizza, and thanked me for it, I would not be annoyed by this at all, frankly. I am not annoyed by how much he ate, I am annoyed by the lack of gratitude after the fact.

AITA for barring an acquaintance from my house after he eats most of the pizza I ordered and was ungrateful for it?

Beep boop! Automod here with a quick reminder to never brigade r/AmITheAsshole or other subs under any circumstances. Brigading puts you in violation of both our rules and Reddit’s TOS, and therefore puts this sub at risk of ban. If you brigade/encourage brigading of any kind, you will be banned from participating in either sub. Satirizing of posts should stay within this sub, which means that participating directly in linked posts should either be done in good faith or not at all.

Early in recovery addict acts compulsively and shows zero self awareness. Later in recovery addict expects new guy to be further along and more enlightened. Both are actually predictable stages of recovery.
