My kid's 18 and thinks he's a fucking loser.

Any parent knows that you can't go straight from doing-stuff to sleep; your brain needs some veg-out stuff to just process things. (I mean, I can sleep, but something unpleasant builds up if you don't let decompression happen)

By the time I've left work, done grocery shopping, made dinner, cleaned up after dinner, done laundry etc, it's already late, and I've had no me-time to just decompress. (especially when chores drag out longer the more tired I get...)

And apart from that, there's a mixture of FOMO, resentment and just clawing-for-agency that makes me rebel against the only boundary I can shift, even though I'm the one that suffers for it.

 

As per title. I very, very rarely drink, and I generally just want to buy a single of something for a rare treat, however most beers/ciders/etc are sold in multipacks.

The pricing on the shelf is usually per-pack only, yet sometimes I see random products with single cans/bottles missing, and sometimes random products will have a little section of unpackaged singles, despite not having a separate price showing.

Is it generally OK to split an unopened 4- or 6-pack, or is that as weird and inappropriate as doing the equivalent in a supermarket? What even are the rules around this?
