AITA for telling my brother he has smelly farts and that's why all his girlfriends are dead

Summary:

EDIT: Alright, this is getting out of hand y’all. Let me say this for the final time: my brother is not a serial killer. He would NEVER lay a hand on a person, alright, the dude doesn’t even eat meat because he thinks it’s animal cruelty! He is a GOOD man.

AITA for telling my brother he has smelly farts and that's why all his girlfriends are dead

Not the A-hole

Okay so my brother (33M) and I (37M) usually get along fine but we work together and live together and sometimes after a long time on the road we annoy each other. It’s just what happens in close quarters. He knows he’s got a tendency to get gassy and yesterday he nearly killed me in the damned car after he ordered a black bean burrito for lunch that I TOLD him would give him rancid farts. I literally fucking begged him not to order it. I swear he did it to spite me. He fell asleep then farted in his sleep like five times. It was so fucking bad it made my eyes tear up and I had to roll the window down. I was worried the smell would sink into the goddamn fabric of my car (F49) and we’d smell it for the rest of our lives (she’s a classic car!!!). Full disclosure like four of his former girlfriends have died in freak accidents so yeah I’m probably the asshole but I told him not to eat all that rabbit food shit that makes him fart everywhere on 15 hour car rides and he still does it. I usually drive the entire way while he gets to take naps. The least he could do is not stink up the car! Now he hasn’t spoken to me all day even though I apologized.

EDIT: Alright, this is getting out of hand y’all. Let me say this for the final time: my brother is not a serial killer. He would NEVER lay a hand on a person, alright, the dude doesn’t even eat meat because he thinks it’s animal cruelty! He is a GOOD man.

EDIT: My brother may be a vegetarian but he’s not a filthy vegan who judges STARVING children for eating meat. Get fucked u/agriffithapologist, there’s a cactus out there with your name on it.

It didn’t actually have anything to do with farts. One died in a fire, another one died in a home invasion, one was a drug dealer and got killed during a deal gone bad, and one like choked on a meal in a motel room or something. Edit: Wait I realize that sounds weird. He didn’t kill them lol.

Naw man I was actually there when like two of these things happened lol. It seriously wasn’t his fault. He just has the worst luck of all time and I made light of it, which wasn’t cool and I gotta take my licks. My brother isn’t a serial killer. So I’m just gonna go with I’m the asshole and leave it at that.

There are so many red flags in this post. You say your brother has had four girlfriends all of whom are now dead, in either freak accidents or as a result of crime. He’s also probably a drug addict because one of his girlfriends was a dealer. And the two of you travel all over the country because "work." More like because "he’s on the lam."

Fuck you. And fuck me. My brother is seriously a good guy and I am so goddamn proud of him okay? He’s been through so much crap but he’s still out there helping others! He’s a good brother and a good dude who doesn’t deserve this shit. He already has problems opening up to making friends because of all the crap he’s been through. It would hurt him so much to see people blaming him for his girlfriends being dead. I should never have said what I said or posted this thread to begin with. I’m the asshole.

Yes. And they drove a classic car. Look at the "age" of his "classic." Another woman who was a former associate of Sam Winchester’s also died in a suspected poisoning years after meeting him… in a motel room. Security footage placed him at the scene.
