AITJ for making fun of a classmate even though he’s a total weirdo?

I (10 M) have recently just started the 4th grade. We had an assignment where we had to write about what we did this summer. This one kid (also 10M) claimed that superheroes (m and f) from another planet visited him and he had origin stories made up for both of them, especially a tragic one for the male one. After he was done reading pretty much everyone threw paper at him for being so stupid. Some students asked about these superheroes but I being the competent one rightfully pointed out how absurd he sounded. My teacher threatened to give me a demerit for how I sounded even though once again, I’M in the right here! So at recess, I chased him and took his writings for myself. I crossed out his writings because let’s be honest, the kid needs to grow up.

As I write this in the middle of a storm, this kid came up to my desk unannounced and told me to give back his writings. I not wanting to get caught told him I didn’t have them but my teacher threatened to give me a demerit again and even wanted to nickname me after the demerit system. So I begrudgingly gave it back to him. He found out what I did and screamed that I ruined his writings. Because I’ve had enough of him I shouted that I didn’t ruin them and told my teacher he should expel the kid. I got his writings thrown at my head and now my teacher is angry. AITJ?

AITJ for wanting to switch careers and go into hiding?

I (30’s m) am a highly respected public figure. I grew up in a very privileged life with a wonderful Mom and somewhat neglectful Dad, but everyone at school seemed to love me. I always have wowed my classmates and teacher with the power of kindness. I’ve been given my own museum depicting all the times I’ve fought an old classmate (30’sm). We’ve got kind of a friendlyish banter thing going on and we’re both adopted so we have that in common.

Recently however, I’ve grown bored with the life I have and decided that I want to switch careers to something else instead of my current career. The only problem is I’m so famous that I would need to fake my death and go into hiding to do it.

So I decided to do it! I’m now hiding in a bunker that actually used to be where I went to school and I’m trying to pursue my new career now. But now my old classmate is sort of in control of my city now. AITJ?

AMTJ for wanting to hold an innocent man in prison so I can be with him?

I (late 40’s f) am a guard at a highly secured prison in a polar region. I am the only female in the prison with one minor exception. Recently we thought that we caught an infamous criminal (unknown age m) it turns out I may have gotten his celebrity doppelgänger instead. (Okay I did catch his doppelgänger) and I’ve had a crush on him for YEARS. I even have a shrine dedicated to him. I’ve blocked every escape route in the prison and want to keep holding him hostage. I told him he needs to either put together a talent show for our prison or I’ll punish him. He and his theatre troupe/ TV-show ensemble are on tour right now and he could help my prisoners perform. Right now we just have an escape artist performing. (Who I plan to taser)

The thing is, the innocent celebrity I’ve kidnapped has a girlfriend. The two of them are in an interracial relationship and have been dating for years! But now I want him for myself! AITJ?

AITJ for potentially ruining my famous friends career?

I (54ish M) am friends with a really famous celebrity (late 20’s M) and recently got to see him again after he won a major award in his field. (The award was named after a recently deceased 70m friend) We catched up with each other and he invited me to go out of the country with him to watch him perform. He also asked if I could help guide him at the competitions.

The night before the first competition after running into some weird dudes in the bathroom I met a girl and we got to talking about designs or something (she didn’t sound too interested after I kept yapping) But she asked me on a date for the next night and I said yes! The next night at the competition I was just doing my job until my new girlfriend (30 ish f) suddenly called me and I must’ve gotten a little carried away and I went outside of my post. She never showed up that night but I saw a cool martial artist in the street!

I went back to my post and my celebrity friend was angry with me. He started blaming me for losing the first match of the competition. I suggested maybe I go to the judges and talk to them about what happened and I told him about my little rendezvous with my new girlfriend. This just made him more mad and I don’t know if we’re friends anymore.

I’ve sent him a note apologizing for my behavior (and one about an R-rated movie I didn’t mean to order! And some other random notes) and I will be taking a plane home. There’s two more competitions in two different countries left and I don’t want to let him down but also don’t want to get in the way. AITJ?

AITJ for sneaking out without telling my Mom?

I (17 going on 18f) have been wanting to see a certain celestial phenomenon for my birthday but my Mom says it’s not safe for me to go outside. She also said to not ask her again which really left me bummed out. The weird thing is she herself can go outside but not me which I think is kind of strange. Recently a dude (29ish m) broke into my house so I held him hostage and had the crazy idea to ask him to take me to see this phenomenon for my birthday. He agreed and it turns out my Mom would be away.

Later today however, my Mom suddenly showed up and told me she found out I was sneaking out and wants me to come home but the guy I held hostage might have a crush on me and I think I like him back. She suddenly disappeared out of nowhere and now I don’t know what to do. AITJ?
