AITA for not letting a child have some of my food?
So I (19F) went out with a friend (18F) for dinner the other day at a restaurant. We were just chilling, having a good time and then I noticed a couple (I think around 20 F&M) walk in with their child (1M). Then they came and sat at the table next to us. I noticed them sitting, thought nothing of it, and went back to talking with my friend. The problem came when our food arrived. I was minding my business eating when suddenly I felt a small hand on my leg. I was a little freaked out because I hadn't been paying attention but I quickly realised it was the toddler. I tried to gently remove the toddler but he kept making urgent gibberish noises and jumping up and down. The mother of the child then noticed and rushed over, clearly mortified. She then explained to me that he just wanted some of my food and that's why he was acting like that. I said it was okay and tried to go back to eating but the child threw a fit when his mother tried to take him away. He started crying and screaming and continued to try grabbing at me and my food. She was clearly stressed out at this point and I wasn't really sure what to do. My friend was also just watching this go down awkwardly. Then the mother asked me to give him some of my food to make him quiet down. I told her no because A. I paid for the food and did not ask for a toddler to harrass me B. I didn't want a very germy toddler touching my food and C. It was spicy food and I was worried it would make the toddler more upset. She asked yet again and I told her no. At this point her husband got involved and told me to give my damn food to his child. I was getting really freaked out at this point but then my friend stepped in. They told the couple they couldn't force me to give up my food if I didn't want to and they just had to deal with it. The husband called me an asshole and reluctantly backed off. The child eventually calmed down and seemed to have completely forgotten about my food but the couple didn't as they were glaring daggers at me the rest of the time. I could also hear them muttering about what a dick I was too as they were literally RIGHT NEXT TO US. My friend thinks I wasn't in the wrong but I feel like I was kind of a jerk. I completely understand why they would both be so stressed with a young kid throwing a fit in a restaurant. But of course that is where you strangers come in! So tumblr, was I the asshole?
What are these acronyms?

aita for accidentally shattering the universe?
so a bit of context, i (15M) and my friends (8M, 29M, 18F and 12F) who we'll call F, E, B and H respectively, were trying to stop this guy (50M, let's call him D) from doing something really bad with this crystal. not sure what he was trying to do, but it can't have been good! he's been an enemy of mine for a long time and we always take him down and win! anyways, i tried to break the crystal to stop him from getting it. my friends knew it was a bad idea and told me to stop but i didn't listen and broke it anyway. in doing so i may or may not have accidentally shattered the universe, which i didn't realize until after dimension hopping to 3 different dimensions with different versions of my friends and ending up in the void where this guy (15M? it's complicated.) who isn't exactly a friend of mine or an enemy told me that our home doesn't exist anymore.
i really miss my friends and home and want to get them all back, but if i do that, the other versions of my friends might die. but AITA?

I love mood boards and celebrations! How about some badass Bob?

See you in the afterlife, Bagman.

I know, I know... This is not what most people think when they think of Bob being a badass. But that's where I tend to see things differently. Who could be more badass than the guy directly involved in all air operations and weapon systems of a military aircraft? Following the 1970s, two-seater jet configurations, including the F/A-18F Super Hornet often featured programmable multi-function displays. These programs allow roles to be more flexible than previous generation aircraft. Multiple crew members can be responsible for detecting, targeting and engaging air-to-air or ground targets, communications, datalinks and/or defensive systems. Traditionally in combat, though, pilots usually retain the responsibility for flying the aircraft. So yeah... Bob's a badass just as he is.
