Ok, I know I'm quick to anger, but... |
|
Let's say $100 of PPV porn shows up on Mom and Dad's cable bill. Naturally, you would expect it to be the fault of little brother, so you call him up and yell at him, tell him to knock it off. Problem solved (?)
Then, you offhandedly mention it to your Ex, who stays there a few times a week. No, it was him.
I'm fucking pissed, I think. I'm not sure what to say. :wtf:
And he has a girlfriend, so it's not like he's not getting laid.
How would you feel?

1. Doesn't he know about the internet? |
|
Seriously, $100 worth of porn on somebody else's bill? And cable porn, which is useless anywho (or so I'm told...)

2. The Internet there is in my Brother's room, so that's out |
|
And like, he's only there from 8pm-10am, usually.
It's the "on someone else's bill" part that's pissing me off. It's not like we have extra $$ right now.
He says he'll pay us for it...I won't hold my breath for the jobless wonder. :eyes:

5. Why is he spanking it at your parents house? |
|
Oh wait, this is the one with the psycho gf?
Suddenly this makes much more sense.

3. Get your ex to pay the bill and tell your parents about it |
|
And apologize to your little brother.

4. Already apologized, my parents have enough stress |
|
I do their budget and write the checks, so it's really not something they need to be concerned with. How he'll pay it, I have no idea. Shiftless loserdom is his job lately. Oy.

6. Call your cable company and find out how to lock out ordering on dirty movies. |
|
At least you can keep it from happening again.

10. It sounds like he feels more "at home" there than you think he has a right to. |
|
Living with people, even part time, in order to provide care can foster a sense of familial entitlement, (deserved or not!) and this could lead to this sort of inappropriate acting out.
The ex's role and status may need to be more clearly defined and a level of formality re-introduced into the arrangement.
Or something.

And don't use my parents pad to jerk you jerk.
Then I'd apologize to my brother.
But you are TOTALLY right to be angry. And creeped out. He KNEW you were going to see that bill. Ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
