Enough with family is family. Toxic is toxic. And those family members were just taking toxic and entitled to a whole new level. They expected everyone around them to be a doormat.
Fucking mood Sick of people telling me to try make things work with my mum. "You only got one mum" etc NO! My mum is toxic, abusive, transphobic. I'm homeless to escape that even We've stormed out of police stations for them saying this crap. We've had A&E nurses blame us for our abuse when we went there struggling with suicidal thoughts. Not a joke Toxic is toxic is toxic Abuse is abuse is abuse Period If anything it's worse family doing it. Parents are meant to protect their kids, the opposite of abuse
Well, if the dude’s that stupid, he shouldn’t be driving anyway-he needs to ride in a stupid-accessible van, complete with extra seat belts and a crash helmet!
@ALAN CHOW HO HAN Moe Yes, that would happen here too. I watch what I'm doing because I know I'm an average driver at best. And yes, I admit I have made stupid mistakes behind the wheel.
@@inevitableweeb6757 Well trees are things. If you destroy a thing you have to replace it. How much do you think it would cost to buy a living 100 year old tree and plant it into someones backyard?
It never fails to surprise me how these companies will gladly send people to do MAJOR destruction work on property without ever once verifying that the property owner is even aware or involved. Like... how is that not negligence on their part?
It's one thing when it's a Shitty Neighbor saying it's their yard... but if I worked somewhere and they said "It's my neighbors, but they said it's okay" I'd make sure to go in person to get it in writing.
That poor old man falling down and that awful woman reporting him for public drunkenness just enrages me! My father passed away a couple of years ago from Parkinson’s Disease and he never drank a drop in over 30 plus years. But he loved being social and friendly even when they told him he shouldn’t be walking. He hated the idea of being dependent on a cart. He would fall in public a fair bit and that would happen a lot. Luckily it was a small town and everyone knew and loved my dad. So they would help him if the cops were called. It was stranger and awful entitled people who just judged a poor old biker man instead of helping one of the kindest men who ever lived.
That wasn’t entitled parents, that was treelaw, where trees get revenge. They tried to kill the tree and as revenge it begin to blow more leafs in their pool.
Ok Ok I just love the the green ones and and I I don’t remember the the same ones I I bought it it is so damn damn cute and it looks so beautiful beautiful and I I like like you know know you are sexy gorgeous beautiful sexy sexy gorgeous beautiful beautiful face lol gorgeous sexy sexy sexy beautiful gorgeous gorgeous woman gorgeous gorgeous lady sexy lady I see your your face and sexy sexy beautiful beautiful gorgeous gorgeous woman woman and sexy gorgeous woman I have to work today lol lol yeah I’m I’m gonna do you you have no one one day you
Tree laws get VERY expensive very quickly, lol. If the tree had died, the neighbors could have been looking at a 6 figure lawsuit depending on the full size and age of the tree.
I've got a newish neighbor that low-key gripes because some leaves and seeds from our mature maple trees wind up in her yard. Yeah, honey, you don't seem to mind that our trees shade your house, patio, and half of your backyard which is a good thing since you leave your dogs out so often. I'm sure her heating and cooling bills would be much higher without our trees as well. 🙄
That law on public drunkenness is going to come up against harassment of disabled people. I wonder what is going to give first? It may end up being how much the town is willing to pay out in lawsuits. Lol !
K.A.R.E.N: Know your rights Acuse everyone Request for a manager Escalate To authorities Neglect reason That's what a karen means Have a greate day! :3
My mom know a woman named Karen that was a very, very nice, kind woman. And then there's ThatVeganTeacher, whose real name actually IS Karen. I feel bad for the Karen's that are just named Karen, and sorry if you're one of them, it's just... Karen is a name that just SOUNDS right for that attitude, and for the male counterpart, Ken also sounds right to me. Sorry to all the Karens and Kens out there who are decent people.
@@desireekowalske1850 yeah and I know some real Karens and Todds who are good people (Chads also) but I know several Todds that are major Todds... it's hard to describe it any other way. The people who puke on you and then act surprised when you wouldn't think that was funny. The people who pass out on the couch and are annoyed when the roommates want to actually use the main room... lolol Todd. Yours has my sympathy if he's the good kind.
The "drunk" dad: Unless the man is driving or attempting to drive...the police cannot force a breathalyzer test without a warrant...since they themselves did not see him fall. Since there is no probable cause...as the caller can't swear to anything other than witnessing the actual fall...not that alcohol was involved...the police wouldn't be able to get one.
Note that he took a breathelizer and wasn't forced to take one. In other words "would you mind taking a breathelizer for posterity sake?" is totally legal and (especially with his breathing 0.00) would allow the cops to go SWAT team on the Karen for: -Falsefying a police report -Misuse of 911 -Herrassing a disabled -Herrassing the elderly -Child endangerment and a broken tail light if she isn't too smart.
My sister in-law's father had a stroke while walking in town, everyone passing by thought he was drunk and just kept walking by. Finally the police showed up and determined the truth but it was too late to prevent major brain damage. This was before cell phones but someone could have popped in the nearby business and ask them to call the police or an ambulance but no one did it was the business that finally noticed him and called.
Even if a person was intoxicated, why not do the right thing and summon assistance? Even impaired people can be injured or ill. SMH. So sorry for what happened to your SIL's father.
I'm so sorry about your sister-in-law's dad. We had a case a bit like that where I live. A homeless guy who was stung by a wasp and was deathly allergic to wasp stings, went to a shop to ask them to call an ambulance. It was early morning and most people were on their way to work, so this shop was the only one open. The woman in the shop assumed the homeless guy was drunk, told him that customers couldn't use the phone and then forced him to leave. He collapsed nearby. Some poor person on their way to work found him and called an ambulance but it was too late and the homeless man died. There was a case in the US, captured on CCTV, that involved a homeless man who saw a woman trying to escape from a guy who was following her. The homeless man tried to stop the guy but was stabbed and collapsed in the street. He was stabbed in the early hours of the morning. Had an ambulance been called during the next few hours, he would've been OK. However, people saw this guy lying in a pool of blood and walked right past him, assuming he was drunk. The CCTV showed two men standing beside him, clearly discussing whether they should call an ambulance. They didn't, despite the large pool of blood. The poor guy died because people assumed he was drunk, despite all the blood. It was an appalling case.
My buddy's dad had cerebral palsy ("had" in that he passed away last year) He would constantly be accused of being drunk. One time a cop pulled him over and asked him to walk a straight line. He told the cop, "I can only do that when I'm actually drunk"
I can tell u once during the winter a few years ago, i was crossing a parking lot of a gas station. Well they were not really careful with the de-icing and i slipped and fell, landed on my neck, I couldn't stand back up cause of the pain. No one came to my aid. When finally someone came to load some gas they came to peak at me and said: "oh God you fell, we thought you were just a drunk person".... GEEZ! to their credit they called an ambulance and kept me covered with a blanket until they came. Either way I am not sure what makes it okay to leave a person on the side of the road in sub-zero temperatures.
@@H-to-O I know I was in the process but there were major family issues I was dealing with and it would have been just too much to handle. But you are right, had I been in a different situation you bet I would have gone all the way.
Bruh, what kind of sick person would just leave someone on the ground in such cold temperatures. Im a kid and even i know thats wrong. Help everyone, you never know what their situation is.
Jedi Master Dark Fluff and his Padawan Stevo! Hmm... I feel a disturbance in the force, like thousands of voices scream out that it doesn't sound right... Their names sounds different than someone from the Jedi Academy... They sounds... Darker... Almost like Lord and Apprentice... But that can't be, Fluff has such a cheerful and upbeat attitude... Like he's the promised one...
I'm now imagining Yoda lecturing a Karen: "Entitlement is the path to the Jerk Side. Entitlement leads to anger. Anger leads to meltdown. Meltdown leads to funnny stories."
I can tell that the Karen in the last story is one of those "you don't have kids so therfore you don't have a life and no free will so I can just order you around", it's disgusting how some people can be so arrogant to think of themselves as the only person in the world who matters
It's like those of us who are child free aren't real people to them. I had a similar interaction once because the person knew I didn't have kids. Shut her up real quick when I told her I physically can't have children because it'll kill me so my cats are my kids, so no, I'm not rescheduling a very important check up for one of my furbabies since it's the only day my roommate and I had off together at the time and I didn't have a car. I don't tolerate entitled people. So glad I don't work there anymore.
It may be a state law from what I found out from neighbors. It is called the “common law right of abatement”. It has to do with the right to remove overhanging branches to the property line or to just trim the branches back if needed. The state law in Texas said that the owner of the tree was NOT obliged to trim branches or roots, but the neighbors could do so as long as they did not trim to an extent that harmed the tree or trespass on other’s property while trimming.
Yeah, it does depend on state laws/ provincial bilaws on weather or not someone can trim overhang, though an arborist goes by the tradesman law of "DO NOT TOUCH NON-CLIENT PROPERTY" Only worker immuned to this law is a repo van.
I was hoping that the tree would have been cut down but that karma would have caused it to fall on & through the roof of the entitled neighbor's house that Illegally hired them.
I hate it when people park in handicapped spots. I work at a Walmart at the front end checking recipts, pushing In carts, etc. I saw a fancy brand new cherry red convertible in a handicapped parking spot. If I had thought of this petty revenge from a story I heard I TOTALLY would have done it. You leave a note saying you scratched their car. Don't specify where. And don't scratch their car. Watch when they come out and see them frantically search for this so called scratch.
A lady I worked with had a beautiful black BMW convertible. She had a disabled badge because she had a problem with her ankles that left her feet pointing at such a high angle, she has to wear 3-inch heels to be able to walk. Disabled people, and their friends and family, can have nice cars too. In most cases it will be an entitled jerk but sometimes it will be a genuine disabled person.
@@scottishastronomer That is worth bearing in mind. Check the fancy car to see if it has handicap tags or a placard; THEN call for a tow or leave a note about a phantom scratch.
I know in my country there is a “little people stand-up comedian” (sorry for not finding the right word), who drives a Maserati, and yes, he also has a permit to park in handicapped spots.
I would simply say: "my money will take care of me. I'm perfectly able to solve such problems with MONEY." "What? You want some of mine? Nope, go and work for it. What, you can't? Oh, yeah, those brats are in the way."
@@Shadowmare4575 - two things being next to each other or close together. Often used when they are opposites or contradictory or seem strange together.
That's literally how breeders are. They think their snot goblins are just so important and wonderful, then act like they're supposed to take care of them when the parents are old? Idk if these people know that kids almost never visit their parents in nursing homes
Some years ago a friend of mine had her leg nearly amputated, below the knee, in an accident. Once she was out of hospital I started driving her wherever she needed to go, putting the handicapped placard in my window so that we could park close enough to stores for her to get around more easily. At Christmas there was an incident in which people parked on either side of my truck, in the handicapped loading zones, so there was no way she could get in. In order for me to get the truck out I had to open the driver's side door a crack, go to the hood, and reach down to the electric window release. I could then close the door and climb in through the window, to get my truck out to where she could climb in.
In that situation I would have put something soft on the other car so mine didn't get scratched and then slammed my door into their vehicle leaving a massive dent that would cost a ton to fix.
@@beez1717 I've done that. Pulled into a spot at walmart. Parked next to a cart corral on the passenger side, leaving plenty of room on the driver side. Came out to a brand new lexus parked next to my car, leaving maybe 3 inches to get my door open. I waited a bit, then got a crowbar out of my trunk and proceed to cave in the passenger side door enough to get my door open. Got in and drove off.
third story, the neighbor shoulda been arrested RIGHT THERE! All she had to do what ask to chop a few branches off. But no, the WHOLE tree had to come down because she has NO respect for anyone and their property. THEIR property.
The handicapped parking incident reminded me of an incident I was involved in way back when I was twenty years old. I was leaving work. It was raining and I was really ready to leave. Another employee who was paraplegic asked me for help to access his van since someone had stupidly parked him in. His van’s ramp could not open without hitting the idiot’s parked car. He explained how the controls worked and after a little trial and error I backed his van out so he could access it. No satisfying Karen confrontation but I got him on his way. I felt so bad because he was stuck outside in the rain while I learned how to drive his van.
As someone who is in a wheelchair, I enjoyed that first story. Lol. I didn’t appreciate or understand the struggle with not having access to handicap parking until I became disabled myself and needed to use it. Now I feel the fury of a million suns when I see someone parked illegally in a handicap spot. Really wish I could channel that fury into a super Hadouken of Justice!
My mother decided she was staying at my house for a few days, without telling me, knowing that I’m about 90% bedridden disabled with mobility problems (permanent nerve damage) and PTSD. She complained I was in bed most of the time, that I was using my disability as “an excuse”, tried guilt tripping me because I physically couldn’t do things, and took it too far when she lied to me and attempted withholding my medications. The only thing I’d asked of her whilst staying at mine was if she could get my medication from the pharmacy I was registered at, which was in the large town nearby maybe 10km away, as I lived in a coastal village (the quiet location was best for my PTSD). She’d said she could, because she was going to meet a friend in a coffee shop a couple doors down from the pharmacy… except she didn’t. She said she’d text when at the pharmacy, but by 4pm I’d heard nothing, so I’d tried texting and calling her to no avail. I physically and mentally couldn’t go out, but had to force my body to get the bus when I was in a LOT of pain, I really struggled. The normally 5 minute walk to the bus stop took 15, my body just wasn’t coping, and mentally I wasn’t coping with her being in my house uninvited. There were some kids bullying another kid on the bus, so I chewed them out for it and my PTSD was going NUTS, so I’d closed my eyes and just sitting in my seat. The kid who was being bullied sat next to me, gave me water, and told me her uncle suffered the same mental illness and she’d asked if I’d fought in any wars, she’d recognised my PTSD and was the sweetest wee girl, so I just replied “different kind of war”. She didn’t really understand but sat with me and told me all about her day, and she got me speaking, so I’d asked about the boys bullying her and loudly said they should be ashamed of themselves, and she thanked me. I thanked her and told her I was very grateful for her help, and got off the bus. So as you can see, mentally and physically I was not doing good, and my mother still wouldn’t answer her phone. So I went to the prescription and shocker, she hasn’t bothered picking it up, when she was explicitly told they closed at 5.30pm (NE Scotland, most stuff closes around that time). So I texted her saying “have my prescription, getting bus home”. She phoned me at 7pm, demanding to know why my doctors was closed, when I told her “it’s a repeat prescription, I told you that, why would you need to go to the doctors?” “To get your prescription” “You work in a pharmacy and know how prescriptions work, so I don’t understand why you didn’t go to the harm act 5 buildings down from where you had coffee” “Oh, because it’s closed” “I’m aware, hence I texted you at 5pm saying I’d gotten the prescription myself, because you wouldn’t reply to me” “Oh, so you can pick and choose when your disability is upsetting you, so you can ruin my holiday?” “Wifie, I am in a LOT of pain and my PTSD has been triggered all damn day, don’t push me. I only asked you for one thing whilst you stayed in my house, uninvited, which you couldn’t do, where you’d have effectively held my prescription hostage, that you KNOW I need to survive” So she got to my house and started SCREAMING that I was selfish for disturbing her, selfish for ruining her holiday, selfish for asking her to do ONE singular thing whilst staying in my home, uninvited, when she wasn’t paying any money or buying food, and selfish for ruining her hanging out with her friends and having coffee (when she wasn’t even bothering to reply to her phone), and I LOST it. I told her to get out, I was fed up of her acting like a bratty, irresponsible teenager who threw tantrums when she didn’t get her own way, for being constantly ableist, and for almost withholding my desperately needed medications that I need to survive, and for mocking me constantly. She refused to leave until I told her I would call the police, and that I wasn’t joking, because she was an uninvited guest being ableist, which is a hate crime in my country. She eventually left, but not before slamming every single door, having a huge tantrum, screaming and calling me every name you could possibly think of, think of a female teenager throwing a tantrum, but for a woman who was almost 50! Once she arrived home several hours later I got a text saying “That’s me home, not that you’d care. A car crash on the way slowed everything down, but I bet you wished it was me who crashed” I cut all contact, for me, that was the last straw, I’d lived a life of abuse from this woman where she psychologically abused me, gaslight me, told me I was the reason she wanted to end her life, that I was worthless, and enabled my brothers psychological and physical abuse against me, and enabled his homophobia and ableism towards me, telling me I was being “sensitive” and that his homophobia and ableism were simply a “difference of opinion”, when both are hate crimes here, and didn’t see anything wrong with him telling me I somehow “flaunt” my disabilities… by talking about them on social media, to encourage open discussions about mental health, to get rid of stigma, and raise awareness about invisible disabilities, so she saw nothing wrong with how she treated me, or how my brother treated me, and I’d simply had enough. She was so entitled that she fully expected free accommodation, free food, the right to emotionally abuse me, the right to gaslight me, the right to manipulate me, the right to weaponise my disabilities, and to withhold my medications. Some parents are beyond entitled.
Maybe so, but if it's not in your yard, it's not yours to cut down. If it hangs over your yard you can cut up to the property line, but beyond that needs permission, or in my case, a request from said neighbor to come over with the chainsaw and my sons.
The lady in the "public drunkenness"story...she was probably picked up for it and now everybody who doesn't walk perfectly straight is drunk and has to pay like she did.
If you have a tree on your property (within 50 to 100 feet of your house) you NEED to get an engineer and property surveyor, as well as an arborist/tree surgeon, to look at it. To see if it's interfering with your home. Depending on the tree species the root system will easily be 2 or more times the size of the canopy. So just cutting the tree down and letting the roots just rot can cause issues with subsidence and damage to your homes foundation. As well as the foundations of the neighbouring homes. This is also a reason why many trees planted along streets are being carefully removed. Because the roots interfere with the surrounding buildings AND the road itself.
Remember almost all of these channels get their stories from actual reddit channels. The stories are not necessarily sent to his channel only. If you listen to a few of these types of channels they all will be reading the same stories. I enjoy the Choosing Beggars stories and subscribe to a few different channels that read them. When new CB stories are posted I will hear at least half of the same story repeated on alot of the channels within a day or two.
The second story about the family that expected this woman to play host to them and serve them breakfast at 8am in time for their flight... well that reminded me of a story my aunt told me a while back. She is bed ridden and has been for several years. She only is able to bet out of bed for a couple of hours a day but event then she has to stay at home due to a host of medical problems and could cause her to pass out or be in severe pain. Everyone in the family knew she was sick and was sending her love and gifts and other support because she lives in Florida and we all for the most part live in New England. So her youngest step-sister just shows up one day unannounced and tells her she will be staying for a few days. On the surface this sounds great. The step sis will take care of the ailing sis and they will have a little time to bond. Nope - the step sis asks her what were we eating for dinner. Auntie says well um it will probably have to be take out since I can't really cook. Step says "I need my full meal." Auntie was mortified and hurt because instead of offering to make the meal step wanted so badly she expected auntie to get up out the bed to shop and cook for a guest that though she loves dearly, didn't ask to be there, didn't give any advance notice so plans could be made and made auntie feel like she was being a really bad host because she couldn't do the things she would normally have done when she was healthy. This blew my mind and I wanted to go find step and give her a piece of my mind. But the upside is that step never paid auntie a visit again.
Here's a bit of a heartwarming story. My family moved next to this elderly lady named Betty, she lived alone with her collie dog, Jackie. At first she was a bit distant, just a wave toward us whenever we saw her but that was it. Then after a really horrible wind blew through our area, I saw Betty crying in the passengers seat of her car. Concerned we asked what's wrong. She said the wind destroyed the Wisteria her daughter planted, it was the last thing she did before she was killed in action in the service. Now the wisteria is dead, just a memory like her daughter and husband. This was heartbreaking to find out. We liked that wisteria too, its flowers were a welcome sight on our side of the yard. We just never knew the story behind it. However, my parents being greenthumbs felt they could save it. My mom took a part of the truck that our neighbor discarded, and over the course of two months, my parents worked their magic on it. We presented the baby wisteria to Betty and she was absolutely shocked. At first she thought it was a new one we bought, but when we told her it was from the original wisteria she just broke down. We had restored a piece of her daughter's memory for her, and she could not thank us enough. That was about six years ago and the wisteria is growing between our properties again like it used to. Betty is still alive, during lockdown we were helping her get essentials and she's since been invited to our family celebrations so she doesn't have to spend the holidays alone.
As someone who has a pool and has to clean it daily in spring and summer while trees blow leaves in the yard. I do feel a bit of sympathy there. Cutting it down is a no go (trim your tree people!)
god. i spent decades working holidays for co-workers with kids. and these guys grumbled when i got sick and had to retire. not one bothered to acknowledge me for 8 years. until last year.
“...to see an old man tumble...” Hey, now; OP said he was 50-something. He’s far away from “old man”. (Signed, someone who’s maybe getting closer to that 50 than he’s comfortable with... 🥸)
I managed to forestall a tree incident once. Guys rang the doorbell AND banged on the door at 7 in the morning, way before I usually get up. Strike 1. I answer the door and it's tree cutters. I love trees and hate to see them cut down. Strike 2. "Your neighbor in the back wants a tree cut down. It would be easier for us if we could drive our truck into your backyard." Strike 3. "We'd have to cut down that big tree in the front, of course." Strike 4 and now seriously pissing me off. "No." "No?" "No. Do not come on this property for any reason. Be gone."
First story, like look, I get it. You get a nice car, you don't want to park where everyone else is and where it might get scratches or hit. You might not want to park far away, but it's the proper thing to do, not swipe handicap spots or worse, handicap loading zones. And DON'T double park. Seriously, I own a classic car that I drive a lot. Like, it's my daily driver, and it is a fairly rare 50 year old car. I understand, but it's not ok to do that kind of thing, ever.
Don't Mess With Tree Law, that neighbor is so lucky that more leaves in her pool are her only problem... If that tree had been actually torn down, phew
I love the iron balls of shy girl turned sassy 😍she had been a huge inspiration and influenced me to stand up for myself to my narcissist mother and my just no family. She can really handle herself
Depending on the exact species of tree and how old it is, the fines and damages could amount to the tens of thousands of dollars or more. In one case the total monetary damages for killing an old enough tree would be more than the total value of a pristine suburban 3 bedroom 2 bathroom home.
Me and My Girlfriend have recently started watching your videos and have fallen in LOVE with how you read these stories. WE have gone over literal HOURS of your content over the last few days and wanted to let you know! Have my subscription and like! You earned them DarkFluff!
Some of the other video's here talk about Tree Law and how great it is at dealing with people like that. If it was my tree I'd have gone to town on them and the company whether the tree survived or not.
Story 4 is just projection; "I'm a drunk that always falls over, so anybody that falls over is a drunk." Old people, toddlers, people with one leg, starting skateboarders, doesn't matter; falling = drunk.
One of my regulars at one of my jobs is disabled. I haven't asked how/why/what's going on with him, but he's wheelchair bound. His family does a lot of automotive/machinery custom fabrication. So naturally he's got a badass wheelchair, that has spikes coming off the wheels. A similar type of stupid person to story 1 had parked his brand new Range Rover blocking the van space in my store's handicap van entrance spot. The staff had offered to find the person that owned the vehicle to have them move it so he could get back in his van. He said "Nope. I got it." and scratched up the entire side of the car with the spikes, and finagled himself up onto the ramp, and into the van. He looked like he'd done this before. The person with the Range Rover freaked out and demanded we hand over security camera tapes, and threatened to call the cops about it. Our store does not have *any* security cameras. But we did have an employee that took a video of where he was parked while the guy got his wheelchair onto the ramp for the van. The dude not only got fined for parking in a handicap area, but also got sued by the handicapped badass for the "damage" to his wheelchair. Which was backed up by the family's reputable custom fabrication business's receipts for what it cost to build the wheelchair. To anyone that thinks it's ever okay to park in a handicap spot, even if it's only going to literally be 30 seconds to get a receipt for your gas, Go f*** yourself. Walk a bit farther for someone that can't.
Hearing the story about entitled family reminded me of my aunt. She is sooo entitled. She thought that she owned everything her family members owned. My mother has a small catering business. One day my aunt visited my parent's house and just took a bunch of snack for her family. That snack was fully paid by my mom's client, and should be delivered to the client the next day. But my mom is the non-controversional type, she panicked but didn't know what to do. In the end no one in my aunt's family seemed to be interested with the snack so my mom quietly hide them. There was also one time my aunt tried to take home our cat, but my mom told her that she spent a whole lot money (a little bit exaggerated) to take care of the cat (food, vitamins, etc) because she knew that my aunt is a total choosing beggar (even though she is rich smh). Our cat was safe because my aunt didn't want to spend money on pets!
In some places, handicapped parking is free for anyone during certain times (like, after business hours until early morning). So "6 pm guy" may be used to be allowed to park in handicapped spots in a different location, and forgot to check if there are any signs stating this. I sometimes park in a handicapped spot overnight, which explicitely allows this, if no other spot is available.
I've had several strokes. Luckily, all my arms and legs work (mostly) as commanded by my CPU. But I have vertigo that will never go away. Sometimes I have good days, and sometimes I have, "cane" days. I used to be able to sling 100 pound bags of things, but those days are behind me. I hate the cane days because I'm only 49. But on cane days, I am prone to falling over. I'm not drunk. I have a TBI. No reasonable person walks with a cane for no reason.
I have nerve damage to my right leg from a car accident. There are many days when I've wished I had the placard. Those are the days I use the cart for support. Right after the accident, I had to use the scooters to even shop. I also suffer from vertigo due to Meniere's disease. One minute I can be fine, and the next I can be on the ground. Former first lady Mamie Eisenhower also had it and people thought she had a drinking problem.
This BS only goes so far, but as a single myself, I've been made to work weekends, holidays and night shifts far to many times in my last four decades of working. Seriously, even when my 'family' was just my parents and occasionally the odd aunt/uncle, I had to work holidays and we hardly ever celebrated on the actual day. Such crap.
I laugh at stories about entitled families. My own learned decades ago that I am the only one who decides what's best for me and my children. My mom died suddenly last year, and everyone knows that they will never again see me or my children. Mom was the only reason I ever went back home. Now, I have no reason to be there. I am this way with them because of the idiotic jealousy expressed toward me and my children (especially my daughter). I have zero tolerance toward f*ckery.
Depending upon where you live some handicap spots are just handicap for certain hours. Although these are generally street parking and become general parking when the business in the are closes for the night. Incase there are other events going on
That last story reminds me of an incident when I was in the Air Force. Being single and living on base, I was happy coving any weekend callouts. Didn't happen that often anyway. so it made sense. One week I was asked if I could cover a couple of hours on Saturday.I said no as I was going away. A married female complained bitterly when she had to cover, stating that I should do it as I always did. Luckily I had a good boss who put her in her place. And I stopped covering every call out and out of hour flying, and let others take their fair share.
Dark Fluff on a friday great way to spend the dinner time before i get hot and heavy into my video games with my husband and friends sometimes i even play the videos over the headset so everyone can enjoy !!! Love ya fluff
It happens a lot. Our house was alone in the neighborhood for 2 years. Our trees were many. Most were planted 1981. In 2017 a new family moved behind us. They did not like leaves either. Long story short Dad had 2, 36yr old trees cut down because he does not want confrontation in his 80s. Not before they went and hired an arborist to go straight up frim the fence and cut off 1 third of the trees. Not just ours. 3 other neighbors( our lot is big so they split my direct neighbor) they managed to piss off their 4 immediate neighbors within a month of moving in. The damage they did to 1 neighbors tree caused it to break in light wind and fall on their new deck. Destroyed it. I had very colorful words for him when 2 weeks after we lost out trees he planted 4.
In English tree law you are allowed to trim overhanging branches back to the boundary, but must then give what you cut off to the owner of the tree...always strikes me as asking for trouble !
Tree story.... reminds me of my old neighbor. For some reason he had it in for my parents holly tree (it started as a small bush and ended up about 20 feet tall!!) It wasn't near the fence line, didn't shed onto his property and did not block his view of anything except the side of our house, but that didn't stop him from asking at least once a year about us getting rid of it. My parents always told him no. One summer, we're cleaning up the yard and I grab the branch clippers to trim the holly tree back. It was growing over the sidewalk so I clipped off some of the lowest branches so we didn't have to bend over to get past it. My neighbor sees me and comes over really happy, "So, finally cutting that thing down huh?" I was like, "No. Just trimming it back so it doesn't block the sidewalk." He gets mad and says, "I don't know why you won't cut that thing down!" and walks away. I tell my mom about what he said, she gets pissed and swears "As long as we live in this house, that tree is NEVER coming down!" Fast forward about 15 years. Both of my parents have passed away and my brother and I are selling their house. Turns out the grandson of the man who build the house heard about what's happened and wants to buy his grandfather's house back. He and his wife stop by and check out the house. As I'm walking around with the wife, she comments on how huge the holly tree is. So I tell her about it, about the neighbor not liking it for some reason and my mom vowing to keep that tree no matter what. When her husband comes outside she looks at him, points at the holly tree and comments "I've never seen a holly plant that big. It stays!" They end up buying the house. Last time I drove by I could see the top of the holly tree, still standing in the side yard and undoubtedly still pissing my old neighbor off!!!
Parking....Also entitled people love to park over the line to take up two spaces with their shinning new cars. I used to have an old beat up VW bug and would park right next to them within the lines of the parking space they encroached on. I didn't care if my doors were dinged, but loved teaching these entitled drivers a lesson.
"you need to marry and breed because that's what women do!" is the most stupid thing i ever heard and the fact they used the term "Breed" instead of "start a family" speaks volumes for how little they care about you and just want grandchildren to potentially take from you for "negligence" just because your parents want something does not mean you're obligated to do it for them just because they said so once you become a adult you quite literally break the shackles of parents and you're free to do whatever you want and you are responsible for all your actions and they cant force you to do anything because you can legally call law enforcement
About the public drunkenness story. The guy isn’t old tho. He’s only 50. Although seeing a guy on a cane might be an indication of disability, not drunkenness.
In story 3, Mother Nature wanted to be petty and remind those neighbors she hasn't forgotten their entitlement and made sure to be petty every towards them every fall. Never mess with Mother Nature. She knows how to fight back.
That indian story doesnt seem like entitlement but rather following a culture than is extremely different from ours. It seems like to me that she was expected to be subservient because she's a woman. I'm praying for her, I'm proud that she can stand up for herself like that.
My dad was in a power wheelchair when I was kid. He and mom went to Home Depot and the idiot manger decided to put products in all the handicap spots. Argh 😫 my mom went off on them . I guess handicap people don't do home Depot.
Enough with family is family. Toxic is toxic. And those family members were just taking toxic and entitled to a whole new level. They expected everyone around them to be a doormat.
Fucking mood
Sick of people telling me to try make things work with my mum. "You only got one mum" etc
NO! My mum is toxic, abusive, transphobic. I'm homeless to escape that even
We've stormed out of police stations for them saying this crap. We've had A&E nurses blame us for our abuse when we went there struggling with suicidal thoughts. Not a joke
Toxic is toxic is toxic
Abuse is abuse is abuse

If anything it's worse family doing it. Parents are meant to protect their kids, the opposite of abuse
I had to make the decision to distance myself from my family. I've never been happier.
"Park somewhere else. Stupidity doesn't qualify as a handicap." An old joke, but relevant here.
Well, it's not a mobility limitation anyway.

It never fails to surprise me how these companies will gladly send people to do MAJOR destruction work on property without ever once verifying that the property owner is even aware or involved. Like... how is that not negligence on their part?
Exactly! That has the potential to be a very sweet lawsuit to file against both that company and the neighbor.
It's absolutely negligent
And also trespass into a yard! I'd be calling about that at least, to get them out... and then destruction of property.
That is when you know you got a shitty job. The workers get hurt in the end because bosses didnt pass law school and think they can do anything.
It's one thing when it's a Shitty Neighbor saying it's their yard... but if I worked somewhere and they said "It's my neighbors, but they said it's okay" I'd make sure to go in person to get it in writing.
That poor old man falling down and that awful woman reporting him for public drunkenness just enrages me! My father passed away a couple of years ago from Parkinson’s Disease and he never drank a drop in over 30 plus years. But he loved being social and friendly even when they told him he shouldn’t be walking. He hated the idea of being dependent on a cart. He would fall in public a fair bit and that would happen a lot. Luckily it was a small town and everyone knew and loved my dad. So they would help him if the cops were called. It was stranger and awful entitled people who just judged a poor old biker man instead of helping one of the kindest men who ever lived.
That wasn’t entitled parents, that was treelaw, where trees get revenge.
They tried to kill the tree and as revenge it begin to blow more leafs in their pool.

Tree laws get VERY expensive very quickly, lol. If the tree had died, the neighbors could have been looking at a 6 figure lawsuit depending on the full size and age of the tree.
@@albaropacheco8053 ur having a stroke on the keyboard?
By removing the largest branches, even a couple of them, means more wind can het through to the smaller leaf bearing branches. Whoopsies
I've got a newish neighbor that low-key gripes because some leaves and seeds from our mature maple trees wind up in her yard. Yeah, honey, you don't seem to mind that our trees shade your house, patio, and half of your backyard which is a good thing since you leave your dogs out so often. I'm sure her heating and cooling bills would be much higher without our trees as well. 🙄
She'll ask for compensation with that good ol' maple syrup.
@@Maninawig alas, they are silver maples which aren't so good to tap.

I feel bad for the Karen's that are just named Karen, and sorry if you're one of them, it's just... Karen is a name that just SOUNDS right for that attitude, and for the male counterpart, Ken also sounds right to me. Sorry to all the Karens and Kens out there who are decent people.

The people who pass out on the couch and are annoyed when the roommates want to actually use the main room... lolol Todd. Yours has my sympathy if he's the good kind.
The "drunk" dad: Unless the man is driving or attempting to drive...the police cannot force a breathalyzer test without a warrant...since they themselves did not see him fall.
Since there is no probable cause...as the caller can't swear to anything other than witnessing the actual fall...not that alcohol was involved...the police wouldn't be able to get one.
Again we were duped by the uneducated... Nah we saw through that one! Kudos!
That is completely wrong to force a test just because someone called it in. It's nuts.
Note that he took a breathelizer and wasn't forced to take one.
In other words "would you mind taking a breathelizer for posterity sake?" is totally legal and (especially with his breathing 0.00) would allow the cops to go SWAT team on the Karen for:
-Falsefying a police report
-Misuse of 911
-Herrassing a disabled
-Herrassing the elderly
-Child endangerment
and a broken tail light if she isn't too smart.
To stop your family from even trying to ask about staying at your house while visiting, just dont create a spare bedroom.
Worked for me.
My sister in-law's father had a stroke while walking in town, everyone passing by thought he was drunk and just kept walking by. Finally the police showed up and determined the truth but it was too late to prevent major brain damage. This was before cell phones but someone could have popped in the nearby business and ask them to call the police or an ambulance but no one did it was the business that finally noticed him and called.
Even if a person was intoxicated, why not do the right thing and summon assistance? Even impaired people can be injured or ill. SMH. So sorry for what happened to your SIL's father.
That is so sad. People have become blind to the needs of others.
My dad fell at a funeral last year. Thank God, everyone was concerned about him. But then again, he is 91.
I'm so sorry about your sister-in-law's dad. We had a case a bit like that where I live.
A homeless guy who was stung by a wasp and was deathly allergic to wasp stings, went to a shop to ask them to call an ambulance. It was early morning and most people were on their way to work, so this shop was the only one open. The woman in the shop assumed the homeless guy was drunk, told him that customers couldn't use the phone and then forced him to leave. He collapsed nearby. Some poor person on their way to work found him and called an ambulance but it was too late and the homeless man died.
There was a case in the US, captured on CCTV, that involved a homeless man who saw a woman trying to escape from a guy who was following her. The homeless man tried to stop the guy but was stabbed and collapsed in the street. He was stabbed in the early hours of the morning. Had an ambulance been called during the next few hours, he would've been OK. However, people saw this guy lying in a pool of blood and walked right past him, assuming he was drunk. The CCTV showed two men standing beside him, clearly discussing whether they should call an ambulance. They didn't, despite the large pool of blood.
The poor guy died because people assumed he was drunk, despite all the blood. It was an appalling case.
@electronron1 - Your story might be an example of the bystander effect.
My buddy's dad had cerebral palsy ("had" in that he passed away last year)
He would constantly be accused of being drunk.
One time a cop pulled him over and asked him to walk a straight line.
He told the cop, "I can only do that when I'm actually drunk"
I can tell u once during the winter a few years ago, i was crossing a parking lot of a gas station. Well they were not really careful with the de-icing and i slipped and fell, landed on my neck, I couldn't stand back up cause of the pain. No one came to my aid. When finally someone came to load some gas they came to peak at me and said: "oh God you fell, we thought you were just a drunk person".... GEEZ! to their credit they called an ambulance and kept me covered with a blanket until they came. Either way I am not sure what makes it okay to leave a person on the side of the road in sub-zero temperatures.
That is horrible.
@@H-to-O I know I was in the process but there were major family issues I was dealing with and it would have been just too much to handle. But you are right, had I been in a different situation you bet I would have gone all the way.
So, you’re saying, if you were drunk and passed out in the middle of the parking lot they would have let you freeze to death.
@@_LunarDragon scary to think about it, but most likely.
Bruh, what kind of sick person would just leave someone on the ground in such cold temperatures. Im a kid and even i know thats wrong. Help everyone, you never know what their situation is.

I'm now imagining Yoda lecturing a Karen:
"Entitlement is the path to the Jerk Side.
Entitlement leads to anger.
Anger leads to meltdown.
Meltdown leads to funnny stories."
The entitlement is strong with this one
I can tell that the Karen in the last story is one of those "you don't have kids so therfore you don't have a life and no free will so I can just order you around", it's disgusting how some people can be so arrogant to think of themselves as the only person in the world who matters
It's like those of us who are child free aren't real people to them. I had a similar interaction once because the person knew I didn't have kids. Shut her up real quick when I told her I physically can't have children because it'll kill me so my cats are my kids, so no, I'm not rescheduling a very important check up for one of my furbabies since it's the only day my roommate and I had off together at the time and I didn't have a car. I don't tolerate entitled people. So glad I don't work there anymore.
What I thought was the worst was the reference to "loved ones" as if a childless person doesn't have any family or friends.
That's basically how breeders think
Unfortunately, these buttholes abound and they sprout up like weeds.
I'm 51, single, and child-free-not-by-choice. I used to be in the Hospitality Industry. The presumption knows no bounds.
Depending on the local laws, I think the neighbors can't even TOUCH the tree, no matter how invasive or destructive it gets.
It may be a state law from what I found out from neighbors. It is called the “common law right of abatement”. It has to do with the right to remove overhanging branches to the property line or to just trim the branches back if needed. The state law in Texas said that the owner of the tree was NOT obliged to trim branches or roots, but the neighbors could do so as long as they did not trim to an extent that harmed the tree or trespass on other’s property while trimming.
Yeah, it does depend on state laws/ provincial bilaws on weather or not someone can trim overhang, though an arborist goes by the tradesman law of "DO NOT TOUCH NON-CLIENT PROPERTY" Only worker immuned to this law is a repo van.
Just remember the wise words of George Carlin:
“Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.”
I believe I’m the stupider lol
The other half are even more idiotic-these fools don’t even know how to clean themselves, so you can smell one a mile away!

@@johntapp7232 I mean your not wrong

I didn't hear the neighbors getting sued or getting billed for the tree. Which is standard and also Opie's family suing the tree company
I was hoping that the tree would have been cut down but that karma would have caused it to fall on & through the roof of the entitled neighbor's house that Illegally hired them.
or comes down on the pool
Na I'm with Andrew on this, take out the house it's more expensive
Tree law?!? Pleaaaaaaase tell me it’s some tree law justice.
I'm glad to know I'm now no longer disabled after 6pm. It'll make life sooo much easier to get out and about. But after 6pm of course. 😉
I hate it when people park in handicapped spots. I work at a Walmart at the front end checking recipts, pushing In carts, etc. I saw a fancy brand new cherry red convertible in a handicapped parking spot. If I had thought of this petty revenge from a story I heard I TOTALLY would have done it. You leave a note saying you scratched their car. Don't specify where. And don't scratch their car. Watch when they come out and see them frantically search for this so called scratch.
I would have thought about reporting it to get towed
A lady I worked with had a beautiful black BMW convertible. She had a disabled badge because she had a problem with her ankles that left her feet pointing at such a high angle, she has to wear 3-inch heels to be able to walk. Disabled people, and their friends and family, can have nice cars too. In most cases it will be an entitled jerk but sometimes it will be a genuine disabled person.
@@scottishastronomer That is worth bearing in mind. Check the fancy car to see if it has handicap tags or a placard; THEN call for a tow or leave a note about a phantom scratch.
I know in my country there is a “little people stand-up comedian” (sorry for not finding the right word), who drives a Maserati, and yes, he also has a permit to park in handicapped spots.
@@scottishastronomer I always look for a disability tag. I work at Walmart, and I've only seen one person do it, which is the example I have.
I love the juxtaposition of "who will take care of you" with "you're only thinking about yourself". Huh?
I think this is called "gaslighting"
I would simply say: "my money will take care of me. I'm perfectly able to solve such problems with MONEY."
"What? You want some of mine? Nope, go and work for it. What, you can't? Oh, yeah, those brats are in the way."

Only one was old to me
Naturally!!
Some years ago a friend of mine had her leg nearly amputated, below the knee, in an accident. Once she was out of hospital I started driving her wherever she needed to go, putting the handicapped placard in my window so that we could park close enough to stores for her to get around more easily. At Christmas there was an incident in which people parked on either side of my truck, in the handicapped loading zones, so there was no way she could get in. In order for me to get the truck out I had to open the driver's side door a crack, go to the hood, and reach down to the electric window release. I could then close the door and climb in through the window, to get my truck out to where she could climb in.
Gross. Sometimes I'm ashamed to be a person.
In that situation I would have put something soft on the other car so mine didn't get scratched and then slammed my door into their vehicle leaving a massive dent that would cost a ton to fix.
@@beez1717 I've done that. Pulled into a spot at walmart. Parked next to a cart corral on the passenger side, leaving plenty of room on the driver side.
Came out to a brand new lexus parked next to my car, leaving maybe 3 inches to get my door open.
I waited a bit, then got a crowbar out of my trunk and proceed to cave in the passenger side door enough to get my door open.
Got in and drove off.
third story, the neighbor shoulda been arrested RIGHT THERE! All she had to do what ask to chop a few branches off. But no, the WHOLE tree had to come down because she has NO respect for anyone and their property. THEIR property.
The handicapped parking incident reminded me of an incident I was involved in way back when I was twenty years old. I was leaving work. It was raining and I was really ready to leave. Another employee who was paraplegic asked me for help to access his van since someone had stupidly parked him in. His van’s ramp could not open without hitting the idiot’s parked car. He explained how the controls worked and after a little trial and error I backed his van out so he could access it. No satisfying Karen confrontation but I got him on his way. I felt so bad because he was stuck outside in the rain while I learned how to drive his van.

Also adoption
Also guarantee those kinds of people have kids for entirely entitled reasons too. Then "own" their kids
Agreed the casino one pisses me off, like I have a life just because I don't screw anything that breaths doesn't mean I don't have plans
As someone who is in a wheelchair, I enjoyed that first story. Lol. I didn’t appreciate or understand the struggle with not having access to handicap parking until I became disabled myself and needed to use it. Now I feel the fury of a million suns when I see someone parked illegally in a handicap spot. Really wish I could channel that fury into a super Hadouken of Justice!
My mother decided she was staying at my house for a few days, without telling me, knowing that I’m about 90% bedridden disabled with mobility problems (permanent nerve damage) and PTSD. She complained I was in bed most of the time, that I was using my disability as “an excuse”, tried guilt tripping me because I physically couldn’t do things, and took it too far when she lied to me and attempted withholding my medications.
The only thing I’d asked of her whilst staying at mine was if she could get my medication from the pharmacy I was registered at, which was in the large town nearby maybe 10km away, as I lived in a coastal village (the quiet location was best for my PTSD). She’d said she could, because she was going to meet a friend in a coffee shop a couple doors down from the pharmacy… except she didn’t. She said she’d text when at the pharmacy, but by 4pm I’d heard nothing, so I’d tried texting and calling her to no avail. I physically and mentally couldn’t go out, but had to force my body to get the bus when I was in a LOT of pain, I really struggled. The normally 5 minute walk to the bus stop took 15, my body just wasn’t coping, and mentally I wasn’t coping with her being in my house uninvited.
There were some kids bullying another kid on the bus, so I chewed them out for it and my PTSD was going NUTS, so I’d closed my eyes and just sitting in my seat. The kid who was being bullied sat next to me, gave me water, and told me her uncle suffered the same mental illness and she’d asked if I’d fought in any wars, she’d recognised my PTSD and was the sweetest wee girl, so I just replied “different kind of war”. She didn’t really understand but sat with me and told me all about her day, and she got me speaking, so I’d asked about the boys bullying her and loudly said they should be ashamed of themselves, and she thanked me. I thanked her and told her I was very grateful for her help, and got off the bus.
So as you can see, mentally and physically I was not doing good, and my mother still wouldn’t answer her phone. So I went to the prescription and shocker, she hasn’t bothered picking it up, when she was explicitly told they closed at 5.30pm (NE Scotland, most stuff closes around that time). So I texted her saying “have my prescription, getting bus home”. She phoned me at 7pm, demanding to know why my doctors was closed, when I told her “it’s a repeat prescription, I told you that, why would you need to go to the doctors?”
“To get your prescription”
“You work in a pharmacy and know how prescriptions work, so I don’t understand why you didn’t go to the harm act 5 buildings down from where you had coffee”
“Oh, because it’s closed”
“I’m aware, hence I texted you at 5pm saying I’d gotten the prescription myself, because you wouldn’t reply to me”
“Oh, so you can pick and choose when your disability is upsetting you, so you can ruin my holiday?”
“Wifie, I am in a LOT of pain and my PTSD has been triggered all damn day, don’t push me. I only asked you for one thing whilst you stayed in my house, uninvited, which you couldn’t do, where you’d have effectively held my prescription hostage, that you KNOW I need to survive”
So she got to my house and started SCREAMING that I was selfish for disturbing her, selfish for ruining her holiday, selfish for asking her to do ONE singular thing whilst staying in my home, uninvited, when she wasn’t paying any money or buying food, and selfish for ruining her hanging out with her friends and having coffee (when she wasn’t even bothering to reply to her phone), and I LOST it. I told her to get out, I was fed up of her acting like a bratty, irresponsible teenager who threw tantrums when she didn’t get her own way, for being constantly ableist, and for almost withholding my desperately needed medications that I need to survive, and for mocking me constantly. She refused to leave until I told her I would call the police, and that I wasn’t joking, because she was an uninvited guest being ableist, which is a hate crime in my country.
She eventually left, but not before slamming every single door, having a huge tantrum, screaming and calling me every name you could possibly think of, think of a female teenager throwing a tantrum, but for a woman who was almost 50! Once she arrived home several hours later I got a text saying
“That’s me home, not that you’d care. A car crash on the way slowed everything down, but I bet you wished it was me who crashed”
I cut all contact, for me, that was the last straw, I’d lived a life of abuse from this woman where she psychologically abused me, gaslight me, told me I was the reason she wanted to end her life, that I was worthless, and enabled my brothers psychological and physical abuse against me, and enabled his homophobia and ableism towards me, telling me I was being “sensitive” and that his homophobia and ableism were simply a “difference of opinion”, when both are hate crimes here, and didn’t see anything wrong with him telling me I somehow “flaunt” my disabilities… by talking about them on social media, to encourage open discussions about mental health, to get rid of stigma, and raise awareness about invisible disabilities, so she saw nothing wrong with how she treated me, or how my brother treated me, and I’d simply had enough.
She was so entitled that she fully expected free accommodation, free food, the right to emotionally abuse me, the right to gaslight me, the right to manipulate me, the right to weaponise my disabilities, and to withhold my medications. Some parents are beyond entitled.
Me and my family all chanting "Tree law! Tree law! Tree law! Tree law! Tree law! Tree law!"
Tree law is a pain in the butt for the people that get sued
Maybe so, but if it's not in your yard, it's not yours to cut down. If it hangs over your yard you can cut up to the property line, but beyond that needs permission, or in my case, a request from said neighbor to come over with the chainsaw and my sons.
The lady in the "public drunkenness"story...she was probably picked up for it and now everybody who doesn't walk perfectly straight is drunk and has to pay like she did.
Karens love projection
If you have a tree on your property (within 50 to 100 feet of your house) you NEED to get an engineer and property surveyor, as well as an arborist/tree surgeon, to look at it. To see if it's interfering with your home. Depending on the tree species the root system will easily be 2 or more times the size of the canopy. So just cutting the tree down and letting the roots just rot can cause issues with subsidence and damage to your homes foundation. As well as the foundations of the neighbouring homes. This is also a reason why many trees planted along streets are being carefully removed. Because the roots interfere with the surrounding buildings AND the road itself.
Stevo, don't think we missed the fact you are reusing the stories.

@@randysmith9636 Oh, no. I mean, he used the stories that appeared on the video before.
@@nikoladedic6623 yep, sometimes i wonder if i accidentally pressed the same videos. I guess it's just on their recommended and forgot them
really hope OP's family sued both the neighbor and the tree cutting company
The Tree: Get a lawyer. Sheesh! The nerve. Sue both the company and the neighbor.
The second story about the family that expected this woman to play host to them and serve them breakfast at 8am in time for their flight... well that reminded me of a story my aunt told me a while back. She is bed ridden and has been for several years. She only is able to bet out of bed for a couple of hours a day but event then she has to stay at home due to a host of medical problems and could cause her to pass out or be in severe pain. Everyone in the family knew she was sick and was sending her love and gifts and other support because she lives in Florida and we all for the most part live in New England. So her youngest step-sister just shows up one day unannounced and tells her she will be staying for a few days. On the surface this sounds great. The step sis will take care of the ailing sis and they will have a little time to bond. Nope - the step sis asks her what were we eating for dinner. Auntie says well um it will probably have to be take out since I can't really cook. Step says "I need my full meal." Auntie was mortified and hurt because instead of offering to make the meal step wanted so badly she expected auntie to get up out the bed to shop and cook for a guest that though she loves dearly, didn't ask to be there, didn't give any advance notice so plans could be made and made auntie feel like she was being a really bad host because she couldn't do the things she would normally have done when she was healthy. This blew my mind and I wanted to go find step and give her a piece of my mind. But the upside is that step never paid auntie a visit again.
In the words of rslash: "OP let me introduce you to tree law."
Here's a bit of a heartwarming story.
My family moved next to this elderly lady named Betty, she lived alone with her collie dog, Jackie. At first she was a bit distant, just a wave toward us whenever we saw her but that was it.
Then after a really horrible wind blew through our area, I saw Betty crying in the passengers seat of her car. Concerned we asked what's wrong. She said the wind destroyed the Wisteria her daughter planted, it was the last thing she did before she was killed in action in the service. Now the wisteria is dead, just a memory like her daughter and husband.
This was heartbreaking to find out. We liked that wisteria too, its flowers were a welcome sight on our side of the yard. We just never knew the story behind it. However, my parents being greenthumbs felt they could save it. My mom took a part of the truck that our neighbor discarded, and over the course of two months, my parents worked their magic on it.
We presented the baby wisteria to Betty and she was absolutely shocked. At first she thought it was a new one we bought, but when we told her it was from the original wisteria she just broke down. We had restored a piece of her daughter's memory for her, and she could not thank us enough.
That was about six years ago and the wisteria is growing between our properties again like it used to. Betty is still alive, during lockdown we were helping her get essentials and she's since been invited to our family celebrations so she doesn't have to spend the holidays alone.
It's very encouraging when someone stands up for themselves . . . successfully.
As someone who has a pool and has to clean it daily in spring and summer while trees blow leaves in the yard. I do feel a bit of sympathy there. Cutting it down is a no go (trim your tree people!)
god. i spent decades working holidays for co-workers with kids. and these guys grumbled when i got sick and had to retire. not one bothered to acknowledge me for 8 years. until last year.
“...to see an old man tumble...” Hey, now; OP said he was 50-something. He’s far away from “old man”. (Signed, someone who’s maybe getting closer to that 50 than he’s comfortable with... 🥸)
Yep, as a 50 year old, I take offense. He had a cane which should have gave her a clue not the age.
Karen: "We're family, you have to let me stay!" Me: "We're not family unless I like you."
I managed to forestall a tree incident once. Guys rang the doorbell AND banged on the door at 7 in the morning, way before I usually get up. Strike 1. I answer the door and it's tree cutters. I love trees and hate to see them cut down. Strike 2. "Your neighbor in the back wants a tree cut down. It would be easier for us if we could drive our truck into your backyard." Strike 3. "We'd have to cut down that big tree in the front, of course." Strike 4 and now seriously pissing me off. "No." "No?" "No. Do not come on this property for any reason. Be gone."
Unleash the wrath of TREE LAW!!
First story, like look, I get it. You get a nice car, you don't want to park where everyone else is and where it might get scratches or hit. You might not want to park far away, but it's the proper thing to do, not swipe handicap spots or worse, handicap loading zones. And DON'T double park. Seriously, I own a classic car that I drive a lot. Like, it's my daily driver, and it is a fairly rare 50 year old car. I understand, but it's not ok to do that kind of thing, ever.
What kinda car Is it
Don't Mess With Tree Law, that neighbor is so lucky that more leaves in her pool are her only problem... If that tree had been actually torn down, phew
Listening to Dark Fluff refer to a 50 year old man as an old man and remembering that The Rock just turned 49…
Tree law is awesome.
I love stories that involves trees because of tree laws alone.
If that were my tree I'd make sure extra leaves ended up in Karen's pool every year by dumping bucketfuls of them over the fence.
I love the iron balls of shy girl turned sassy 😍she had been a huge inspiration and influenced me to stand up for myself to my narcissist mother and my just no family. She can really handle herself
Love these stories so much! Fluff, you light up my day!
Oh, tree law is beautiful! More tree law!
Depending on the exact species of tree and how old it is, the fines and damages could amount to the tens of thousands of dollars or more. In one case the total monetary damages for killing an old enough tree would be more than the total value of a pristine suburban 3 bedroom 2 bathroom home.
Me and My Girlfriend have recently started watching your videos and have fallen in LOVE with how you read these stories. WE have gone over literal HOURS of your content over the last few days and wanted to let you know! Have my subscription and like! You earned them DarkFluff!
Awe I was hoping they'd invoke tree law 😢
Some of the other video's here talk about Tree Law and how great it is at dealing with people like that. If it was my tree I'd have gone to town on them and the company whether the tree survived or not.
Thank you OP number 1! I have multiple sclerosis and this was beautiful. I am crying.
Wow even the tree is pissed off at the neighbors in story 3 that’s awesome
2nd grader: trips
Karen: POLICE TIME
The video hasnt been out very long, but it's a DarkFluff video, so I'm assuming its gonna be good
New here and I've been watching ALL your videos! Love them!💜
Story 4 is just projection; "I'm a drunk that always falls over, so anybody that falls over is a drunk." Old people, toddlers, people with one leg, starting skateboarders, doesn't matter; falling = drunk.
Parking in handicapped spot or the fire zone. It says “no parking” for a reason...
#3: Charge the Tree Company for trespassing.
#4: This is why police need to start clamping down on these Karen callers.
One of my regulars at one of my jobs is disabled. I haven't asked how/why/what's going on with him, but he's wheelchair bound. His family does a lot of automotive/machinery custom fabrication. So naturally he's got a badass wheelchair, that has spikes coming off the wheels. A similar type of stupid person to story 1 had parked his brand new Range Rover blocking the van space in my store's handicap van entrance spot. The staff had offered to find the person that owned the vehicle to have them move it so he could get back in his van. He said "Nope. I got it." and scratched up the entire side of the car with the spikes, and finagled himself up onto the ramp, and into the van. He looked like he'd done this before.
The person with the Range Rover freaked out and demanded we hand over security camera tapes, and threatened to call the cops about it. Our store does not have *any* security cameras. But we did have an employee that took a video of where he was parked while the guy got his wheelchair onto the ramp for the van. The dude not only got fined for parking in a handicap area, but also got sued by the handicapped badass for the "damage" to his wheelchair. Which was backed up by the family's reputable custom fabrication business's receipts for what it cost to build the wheelchair.
To anyone that thinks it's ever okay to park in a handicap spot, even if it's only going to literally be 30 seconds to get a receipt for your gas, Go f*** yourself. Walk a bit farther for someone that can't.
My wife and I are the exact opposite.
"Oh, you're in town? We have an extra bed. You can stay with us!"
Yeah, I've heard about the tree cutting so many times now. Huge lawsuits there.
Hearing the story about entitled family reminded me of my aunt. She is sooo entitled. She thought that she owned everything her family members owned. My mother has a small catering business. One day my aunt visited my parent's house and just took a bunch of snack for her family. That snack was fully paid by my mom's client, and should be delivered to the client the next day.
But my mom is the non-controversional type, she panicked but didn't know what to do. In the end no one in my aunt's family seemed to be interested with the snack so my mom quietly hide them.
There was also one time my aunt tried to take home our cat, but my mom told her that she spent a whole lot money (a little bit exaggerated) to take care of the cat (food, vitamins, etc) because she knew that my aunt is a total choosing beggar (even though she is rich smh). Our cat was safe because my aunt didn't want to spend money on pets!
This is as entertaining as Larry's paper bag that changes expressions. I love this.
14:16 Another repeat --- yeah, I'm THAT person
In some places, handicapped parking is free for anyone during certain times (like, after business hours until early morning). So "6 pm guy" may be used to be allowed to park in handicapped spots in a different location, and forgot to check if there are any signs stating this.
I sometimes park in a handicapped spot overnight, which explicitely allows this, if no other spot is available.

I've had several strokes. Luckily, all my arms and legs work (mostly) as commanded by my CPU. But I have vertigo that will never go away. Sometimes I have good days, and sometimes I have, "cane" days. I used to be able to sling 100 pound bags of things, but those days are behind me. I hate the cane days because I'm only 49. But on cane days, I am prone to falling over. I'm not drunk. I have a TBI. No reasonable person walks with a cane for no reason.
I have nerve damage to my right leg from a car accident. There are many days when I've wished I had the placard. Those are the days I use the cart for support. Right after the accident, I had to use the scooters to even shop.
I also suffer from vertigo due to Meniere's disease. One minute I can be fine, and the next I can be on the ground.
Former first lady Mamie Eisenhower also had it and people thought she had a drinking problem.
This BS only goes so far, but as a single myself, I've been made to work weekends, holidays and night shifts far to many times in my last four decades of working. Seriously, even when my 'family' was just my parents and occasionally the odd aunt/uncle, I had to work holidays and we hardly ever celebrated on the actual day. Such crap.
I laugh at stories about entitled families. My own learned decades ago that I am the only one who decides what's best for me and my children. My mom died suddenly last year, and everyone knows that they will never again see me or my children. Mom was the only reason I ever went back home. Now, I have no reason to be there. I am this way with them because of the idiotic jealousy expressed toward me and my children (especially my daughter). I have zero tolerance toward f*ckery.
Tree law: I hear a summons!
Depending upon where you live some handicap spots are just handicap for certain hours. Although these are generally street parking and become general parking when the business in the are closes for the night. Incase there are other events going on
That last story reminds me of an incident when I was in the Air Force. Being single and living on base, I was happy coving any weekend callouts. Didn't happen that often anyway. so it made sense. One week I was asked if I could cover a couple of hours on Saturday.I said no as I was going away. A married female complained bitterly when she had to cover, stating that I should do it as I always did. Luckily I had a good boss who put her in her place. And I stopped covering every call out and out of hour flying, and let others take their fair share.
Dark Fluff on a friday great way to spend the dinner time before i get hot and heavy into my video games with my husband and friends sometimes i even play the videos over the headset so everyone can enjoy !!! Love ya fluff
Keep up the good work Fluff! Let SteveO get some light too so he can keep making you look good. 😊#SaveSteveO
It happens a lot. Our house was alone in the neighborhood for 2 years. Our trees were many. Most were planted 1981. In 2017 a new family moved behind us. They did not like leaves either. Long story short Dad had 2, 36yr old trees cut down because he does not want confrontation in his 80s. Not before they went and hired an arborist to go straight up frim the fence and cut off 1 third of the trees. Not just ours. 3 other neighbors( our lot is big so they split my direct neighbor) they managed to piss off their 4 immediate neighbors within a month of moving in. The damage they did to 1 neighbors tree caused it to break in light wind and fall on their new deck. Destroyed it.
I had very colorful words for him when 2 weeks after we lost out trees he planted 4.
Ahh time for tree law!
In English tree law you are allowed to trim overhanging branches back to the boundary, but must then give what you cut off to the owner of the tree...always strikes me as asking for trouble !
If someone ever cut down one of my trees, they will be VERY sorry they did.
Tree story.... reminds me of my old neighbor. For some reason he had it in for my parents holly tree (it started as a small bush and ended up about 20 feet tall!!) It wasn't near the fence line, didn't shed onto his property and did not block his view of anything except the side of our house, but that didn't stop him from asking at least once a year about us getting rid of it. My parents always told him no.
One summer, we're cleaning up the yard and I grab the branch clippers to trim the holly tree back. It was growing over the sidewalk so I clipped off some of the lowest branches so we didn't have to bend over to get past it. My neighbor sees me and comes over really happy, "So, finally cutting that thing down huh?" I was like, "No. Just trimming it back so it doesn't block the sidewalk." He gets mad and says, "I don't know why you won't cut that thing down!" and walks away. I tell my mom about what he said, she gets pissed and swears "As long as we live in this house, that tree is NEVER coming down!"
Fast forward about 15 years. Both of my parents have passed away and my brother and I are selling their house. Turns out the grandson of the man who build the house heard about what's happened and wants to buy his grandfather's house back. He and his wife stop by and check out the house. As I'm walking around with the wife, she comments on how huge the holly tree is. So I tell her about it, about the neighbor not liking it for some reason and my mom vowing to keep that tree no matter what. When her husband comes outside she looks at him, points at the holly tree and comments "I've never seen a holly plant that big. It stays!"
They end up buying the house. Last time I drove by I could see the top of the holly tree, still standing in the side yard and undoubtedly still pissing my old neighbor off!!!
Parking....Also entitled people love to park over the line to take up two spaces with their shinning new cars. I used to have an old beat up VW bug and would park right next to them within the lines of the parking space they encroached on. I didn't care if my doors were dinged, but loved teaching these entitled drivers a lesson.
"you need to marry and breed because that's what women do!" is the most stupid thing i ever heard and the fact they used the term "Breed" instead of "start a family" speaks volumes for how little they care about you and just want grandchildren to potentially take from you for "negligence"
just because your parents want something does not mean you're obligated to do it for them just because they said so
once you become a adult you quite literally break the shackles of parents and you're free to do whatever you want and you are responsible for all your actions and they cant force you to do anything because you can legally call law enforcement
They're the selfish ones!
Don’t know if this is possible but you should try to do a co-op vid with RSlash(another TH-camr who does Reddit story’s)
About the public drunkenness story. The guy isn’t old tho. He’s only 50. Although seeing a guy on a cane might be an indication of disability, not drunkenness.
In story 3, Mother Nature wanted to be petty and remind those neighbors she hasn't forgotten their entitlement and made sure to be petty every towards them every fall. Never mess with Mother Nature. She knows how to fight back.
That indian story doesnt seem like entitlement but rather following a culture than is extremely different from ours. It seems like to me that she was expected to be subservient because she's a woman. I'm praying for her, I'm proud that she can stand up for herself like that.
The entitlement is in the fact the family assumed they could stay the night and get breakfast
@@Nuclear_Potato-rt8pl Ahhhh that makes sense. Thanks!
My dad was in a power wheelchair when I was kid. He and mom went to Home Depot and the idiot manger decided to put products in all the handicap spots. Argh 😫 my mom went off on them . I guess handicap people don't do home Depot.
Don't know how many times in the winter, all the snow from the parking lot is plowed into the handicapped spots.
