Am I the asshole? The defining phrase of Reddit's r/AmItheAsshole community, where users describe an interpersonal conflict and ask strangers to judge whether they behaved badly. Verdicts come back tagged as YTA (you're the asshole), NTA (not the asshole), ESH (everyone sucks here) or NAH (no assholes here). The format has become so recognisable that "AITA?" now functions as a generic format outside Reddit too.
AITA for refusing to babysit my sister's kids on Christmas Day after she forgot my birthday?
