OMG, Amy Hill is one of the funniest people on earth. Silverman only gets the best.
Does everyone really not like this? I thought it was pretty funny and dealt with the issue it raised quite deftly.
Tony Coleman likes and dislikes on TH-cam are like high school - petty as fuck and not reflective of the real world.
it's disgusting
I think it's important to not give attention every single time someone demands it, but also not to ignore it every time, either. Find a balance that suits you and them.

My best friend brought her newborn son home (she was living with her parents at the time because her husband was based out of the Ellucians). A few days later the relatives were invited over. So this newborn was surrounded by this noisy crowd and started to cry. My friend went to pick up David when her grandmother said 'Now Susan don't pick David up everytime he cries, he'll get use to it and will cry all the time just for attention.' I looked at her and said 'You're kidding you really think a newborn baby cries just to annoy or spite you?' 'It's the only means a baby has to tell you something isn't right.' So Sarah's discussion of the consequences of not paying attention to someones needs was a good point. Leave it to an old Fart to bring up farting.
when I visited my boyfriend's extended family, there was a baby on the floor for about one hour and nobody picked it up even once. They were all too busy smoking on the veranda. I swear, had I not known whose baby it was, I couldn't have guessed it if my life depended on it. Another son of theirs had night terrors and started kicking and screaming. They claimed, "he just wants attention"... My only thought was: 'Yeah... maybe start giving it to him?" A child needs attention in order to develop. Too much attention is bad, but neglect is much more poisonous! I never visited these people again, because my heart broke that day.
FWAJR it's interesting I have come to the conclusion that spoiling a child is just another form of neglecting a child. Throwing tantrums, screaming and kicking to get what they want and the parents give in just to shut them up, is just as bad as ignoring a child who is crying because it is truly in need. I see this in our president, and part of me feels sorry for him, but we can't afford this important government position to be held by an emotionally abused child/adult. Now don't take me wrong the child with the night terrors is something completely different, and yes it would break my heart too.
I agree that this started out admirably . . . . . but . . . . Fart Jokes . . . . . Really? ? ? ?

Children who throw temper tantrums may need a different type of attention. I was a "temper tantrum" child who was either yelled at or ignored, and it just got worse and worse until I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder when I was 23.
I got diagnosed at this age because that's when most people are diagnosed (in their early 20s), but I knew that I have been bipolar from a very early age when I was asked, "Do you remember what life was like before you got sick?", because the answer that immediately popped into my head was, "What do you mean, "before"...?"
I'm sure there were people around me who said, "Oh, she just wants attention." Well, I really didn't, because the attention I got was mostly negative. But my mood swings were overwhelming and I couldn't control my outbursts, which was confusing and terrifying. The last thing I needed was to be treated like an "oh she just wants attention" kind of child - I didn't want it, but I desperately NEEDED it.
Don't judge parents who are dealing with "temper tantrum" children. You don't know what their situation is, or what reasons they have for doing what they are doing.
And yes, I know they were mood swings. As a younger child I had what is called rapid cycling, but I also had what I can now identify as a major depressive episode when I was nine years old. It lasted for about six months. I remember being nine years old and wanting to die because I thought I was the worst person who had ever lived. That's not a great feeling. And this episode of depression came after I had "crashed down" from a few days of feeling energetic or hyper, during which I did things I normally wouldn't have done. Textbook hypomania, in other words.
Most, if not all, adults in my life failed to realise that there was something wrong with me that required medical attention. I don't blame them. But so much research has been done since the 90s, when I was a child, and we are much less ignorant these days. I hope it follows that we are equipped to give troubled children the attention they NEED.
@Joshua Jung Do you feel better now?
I actually think this is a great discussion about hearing others, while also setting boundaries.
"Thank you. I understand that you have an idea. If you could please write down the idea and we can talk about it after the show."
The problem comes with rewarding acting out with attention, not with punishing people who have needs by depriving them of those needs.
Why are they beeping four letter words?
Josh's mom!
Did Hulu really censor her show?
I have wondered about that with children. Yes many want attention and it's pretty easy to give them attention and not feed into problematic behaviors at same time. Energy does a lot to convey all kinds of information
They cancelled Ouch My Balls for this?
"I would trade 2 GaffigAns to prevent a genocide!" Hah!
Man, Gruber took the Higgins boys dumping him HARD.
Please don't trade in gaffigans
Give people attention, listen to them, but avaluate before giving them credit.
The fart sounded too fake and I wanted some feedback on the odor...
OK, so the point is that you want to give people attention because they need it, but when you do, they derail the conversation and do stupid stuff that takes up all your time.
Mind over splatter.
Anyone else hold their breath during breath holding scenes in movies? Anyone else struggling to fart just now?
Sarah is a babe
And 4 million gypsies, but my ancestors didn''t have any rich friends or birth certificates, so we don't matter.
no one: You are well named because literally, no one has ever said that.
And gays, but we weren't released after, just put in the gulag
Joshua jung- agreed, of course while ignoring the last 30 years of gay rights being pushed. I'm a traveling street artist, so I've always had great relationships with gypsies, I hate seeing the stigma they face. I was so happy last time I stoked through Warsaw that the gypsy kids remembered me from early years doing shows for them and teaching the young ones how to skate board ;)
Also they saved my ass from getting stabbed by morrocans in 2009 in Amsterdam. Love gypsy culture.
