Seriously, my lord. As a social worker, there is minimal evidence punishment works when encouraging someone to engage in a behavior, and it isn't ever recommended due to reinforcement of healthy behavior having high efficacy where punishments do not. The daughter was working through her issues in an honest manner which isn't easy to do (she wouldn't ask to keep going if she didn't find it beneficial). Basically saying "I'll take away the resource that's been successfully working with you as a person to get through these obstacles in your life as to to improve other aspects of your life if I don't see an immediate increase in those aspects." And while it was mentioned in the video, if you go "Grades haven't improved, me only see spawn eating again and talking to people, me punish" you'd probably score lower marks than your daughter considering that level of critical thinking.
The man who canceled his daughters therapy mad me so mad I started tearing up. That’s definitely abuse and neglect. If you know your child has mental health issues and intentionally stop them from seeking help you’re MORE than just an asshole. I really hope the mother is able to get her back into therapy
I read the post with an update and, apparently (according to OP himself), he finally listened to the comments, has educated himself, and put his daughter back in therapy. I hope this makes you feel better, though it was still an awful situation.
So fun fact the "secret period"/the skid marking sons actually had a really good edit and update where him and his son's learned and grew and accepted that they were being assholes and are now know more about female health
Not only did they learn, but the wife and stepdaughter made a whole interactive power point and everyone had a good time and they were less weird about it. I wish they had read the update lol
The mom and daughter are a**holes. That’s gross and trashy. No matter if you live with men or not I live alone and dispose of my sanitary products discreetly because it is gross. Being gross and just throwing used period products in the trash has nothing to do with women’s health. Periods are natural and normal but being unhygienic and discarding others feelings is not normal it is shitty. The edit update just shows the men where manipulated.
I mean you’re still going to see it when you open the can, it’s most likely that they are mad for the wrong reasons but I kinda get it because I don’t like blood at all, it doesn’t matter if it’s period blood or a nosebleed or a cut, I don’t like blood at all and everyone in my family wraps up bloody stuff in tissues
Or just be an adult and just put your used period napkins into a sanitary bag. For one I live with two sister and my brother's girl friend live with us. Your blood reeks and it's disgusting. Either find a different place to dispose them or just be a grown up and use a sanitary bag. He even asked. Because he could have been even worse and gave her the ultimatums of do it or move out, and wifey didn't like that then rethinking the marriage should be in the cards. Because he asked and didn't order it.
@@WaltonReimer his justification of "my sons haven't been around women and it makes them uncomfortable." isn't a justifiable reason to act like this is strictly her problem. there is an easy way to find a compromise of "please wrap it in toilet paper, but i will also talk to my son's about how this is normal and not something they should be uncomfortable with." everyone in this situation needs to act more mature. not to mention considering he's the one who made the post, it's very easy for him to edit what he said to make him seem more reasonable and her seem like a major asshole. i cannot imagine someone having such a vitriolic response to just being asked to wrap period products up so the blood isn't visible, so it seems there's more he said that he didn't include. it creates implicit bias. (also, as a woman myself, someone with a sister and a mother, and someone who works in a small business where we equally share responsibilities for things like cleaning out bathroom trash cans for women's sanitary products, it really doesn't reek. if the smell is strong enough to "reek," someone needs to be taking out the trash more often.) also edit: someone in another separate comment said "So fun fact the "secret period"/the skid marking sons actually had a really good edit and update where him and his son's learned and grew and accepted that they were being assholes and are now know more about female health." so to me, considering they *accepted* that they were being assholes, he was not fully honest about how the situation went down, and resolved it amicably because they were not in the right. so... yeah idk i feel like that's pretty revealing about the whole situation.
Update on the stepdad who got mad at his stepdaughter over her disposing her pads in the bathroom trash, he updated and said his wife sat him down with his son and gave them a lesson on periods which they actually enjoyed and it was a good time. He apologised to the stepdaughter. Just glad that someone on that subreddit was able to listen to constructive criticism and admit that they were badly in the wrong.
YUCK KADIRI NAMN SI ATE GURL. I HAVE 3 BROS BUT I ROLL IT AND PUT IT ON BAG. THEY DID NOT GROW UP TOGETHER. GALENG KEPYAS NYA YUN. ALL OF.THEM ARE NASTY.
Also he said it constructively but the bratty stepdaughter claps back. Ill mannered THEY DID GRO2 TOGETHER AND NOT BLOOD RELATED. ITS PRACTICALLY IT CAME FR HER VAGAYGAY. THESE ARE TEENAGERS. COME ON! HOW HAVE SOME HYGIENIC HABITS.
The worst one has to be the revoking of therapy. The poopy football is traumatic too but damn the loss of therapy can determine everything moving forward.
My wife suffers from extreme depression and anxiety and if she was going to therapy and it was doing loads of good and then it got canceled on her, to her that would feel like the 1 and only thing that could ever help her is gone so what's the point of going on. That father reserved himself a nice seat in hell for that action.
I only disagree with the ranking here because the mom is still paying for the daughter go to therapy, so dad is just playing a game of "who's going to the retirement home." Still awful because of his mindset, I just believe poopy football is worse because that guy is still out in the world wreaking havoc.
“I think telling her that she needs to get higher marks to continue therapy will motivate her” I’m speechless... like dude....her therapist is not a personal tutor wtf?? His daughter is finally getting the help she needs and is clearly thriving from it, by taking away her sessions all he’s doing it putting her back into that depressive state, I’m so glad the mother is offering to continue paying for her daughters therapy. Think I can guess who the subject of her sessions is 🤨🤚🏻
It’s this idea that we need constant threats to motivate us. Can’t make life easier for homeless people because if being homeless isn’t bad then people wouldn’t work
I think with this kind of thing, you have to keep in mind that you are only getting one perspective. Obviously most people don't want to purposefully make themselves look like an awful person, so often you are getting the incomplete picture, where op is made out to be an absolute angel. I think that's important to keep in mind when making a judgement with these posts. Of course, sometimes people just lie
That therapy one is insane, Did the dad confuse a therapist and a Tutor? Because it sounds like he wanted to get her a tutor and thought the therapist would just roll that into their sessions because he off handedly mentions her grades are bad at the end of a laundry list of issue that need REAL attention.
@@jupiterzombiesmy mom is like that. They don't actually care for your struggles unless they have the POSSIBLY of making them look bad. Even if it's something that doesn't even make make them look bad
About the therapy one The education system places WAY too much emphasis on grades and numbers. It’s never a strive to learn, it’s always just trying to get the best scores possible and not actually retain any information and that is DIRECTLY CONTRADICTORY to what school should be about Obviously there’s a lot more to that one, like the fact OP thought his daughter was just “fixed” after a couple sessions and was being a manipulative ass but people have already gone into that
@@SiriusBigbadda I think the problem was her not wrapping up her products after use. To be fair I get uncomfortable when seeing bloody tampons and/or pads in the trashcan, and I'm also a female with a period. The human body is just kinda gross, though all of this stuff is natural. I was always taught to use toilet paper to wrap mine up by my grandmother and 2 sisters. But, I do agree that maybe the boys should be more educated.
@@SiriusBigbadda Because women have periods that doesn't mean that they have the right to put their used period products in very visible places. I have hemophobia so to me period blood is terrifying.I may be an extreme case but wet again a lot of people fill uncomfortable around blood, so it doesn't seem unreasonable to me to ask the person that uses those products to wrap them with some toilet paper or something alse.
The “p*rn aunt” story is quite sad. To be a teenager is to misplace your anger. I hope that the mother has kept trying to get through to her daughter about this topic. That her aunt isn’t the one to be mad at, it’s the kids bullying her and weaponizing her aunt’s career against her. Reminds me of a kid I knew in school who got bullied a bit because his dad was a garbage man. The ridiculing died down by high school, but that must have been rough for that kid, a family member’s job negatively affecting you at school. The p*rn thing is so much easier to weaponize and a whole lot more damaging on many levels, I hope the daughter comes to terms with it soon.
I mean she def shouldn’t have called anyone names or been so mean to people but they can’t force her to speak to her aunt or to hang out with her. It’s completely understandable that she wouldn’t want to look at her aunt ever again. I mean if I was sent a video of my aunt doing the stuff they do in “Adult Films” I’d prob bleach my eyes before ever looking at or talking to my aunt again. That’s horrifying seriously. And traumatizing tbh. I feel bad for everyone in that situation tbh. It’s probably pretty rough for the whole family tbh.
I don’t understand why people are having more compassion for the aunt rather than the teenager in that story. From the info in their post they never straight up asked how the teenager felt, why they hadn’t told her before, or asked what the bullies were saying/doing. Like I’m pretty sure her classmates are not just saying ”ur aunts a hoe”, they’re probably constantly sending photos and videos of her aunts p*rn to her and the rest of the school. And it should also be considered that she didn’t know the aunts job before the facebook comment, and that we don’t know the type of p*rn the aunt does. Personally I wouldn’t want to see my aunt in any type of p*rn, absolutely not when I was fucking 14 y/o. To top it all off her mom then takes her internet away for 3 months ”bEcAuSe ShE sAiD bAd WoRdS” and preach to her about sexism and treating sex workers with respect. Sex workers deserve respect, but the feelings of the adult star is not the issue at hand in this story lmao, it’s an issue of bullying and, IMO, an issue of parents caring more about the aunt than their kid being bullied. I was bullied for 11 years straight so the fact that people (including her own family) are more concerned about the aunts feelings than what the teenager has possibly gone through is making my blood boil. Maybe they should be asking the kid what she’s going through rather than trying have a PSA at her school about sexism online to make it even worse for her 🤦♀️
I hope the mom helps her daughter by signing her up for some therapy sessions, because that really is a situation that can be so traumatizing to a teen.
So true, but it's also kind of weird that she doesn't automatically just wrap it in a bit of toilet paper first. Her mom obviously doesn't either or she would have taught her that when she started her first period.
@@rebeccaholcombe9043 it's nothing to be embarrassed about, just like shitting is nothing to be embarrassed about, but that doesn't mean I leave it on the pot for everyone to see
To be fair if I went into the bathroom and saw that whilst brushing teeth or goin 1 or 2 male or another female would be kinda uncomfortable just like seeing someone's underwear it's kinda weird not too much but a little there's no problem with it honestly if there was like a tiny trashcan with a lid and peddle would work ya know
they made me mad too, but you were never a 15 year old boy so you have no idea what you would have known. 15 year old boys arent typically spending time learning about period products because they dont get periods. most of us know what periods are but we dont bring it up because its inappropriate if youre not a girl. these kids were just idiots
For anyone wondering, he quickly realised he was in the wrong, apologised and continued with therapy. Fingers crossed he genuinely learned from all the replies.
@@samuelbrock I don't think so, he clearly stated that the therapy was helping her. Which is even more disturbing because he decide to took it from her anyway. I understand putting emphasis on your kids getting good grades but there's got to be a limit. It's not the most important thing in the world and never should be.
Honestly the fact that Jackie cries when angry is a tiny little nugget of joy for me. I do it too and also when I have to talk about myself in public, and it's great knowing I'm not the only one.
I used to be this way and learned it was due to my anxiety; basically I had no control over my emotional response. Now that I take medication, I can have calm arguments and confrontations with people. It's pretty great!
@@katieb.1184 I've always cried really easily and I'm only just starting to accept it. one thing that helped is my therapist telling me that your body doesn't waste energy on things it doesn't think is important, so obviously some part of your body is like, "Hey, you need this." So if you think about it that way, maybe your body's not betraying you, it's just trying to help
@@justinspeece1609 I think they did or have similar dating experiences because she was hitting him a lot when they were talking about the marriage post
Now choose your tops, make it slop, that's some wet ass pizza Choose some soda, or some pop, that's some wet ass pizza Mozzarella in the crust, That's some wet ass pizza I'm talking WAP, WAP, WAP That's some wet ass pizza
Shayne’s reactions during this whole video are topp tier, both the verbal ones and facial expressions. They made me laugh more than the posts at some points. Please post more of these!!
I definitely feel bad for grower not shower guy. That was clearly a joke that was only appropriate in private to the two of them. Can the wife just not fathom the idea of being insecure about something? I feel like that's one of those stories that if the roles were reversed, Shayne and Jackie would have definitely said op was an asshole.
Also please do not ever detail/specify the exact size of your significant other’s privates. Idc that it’s anonymous, it’s weird for anyone to do. Don’t talk about it to your friends, don’t talk about it with strangers, it’s incredibly inconsiderate and weird. It wasn’t even needed for context, the important part was near the end where he expressed that it made him upset/uncomfortable. She didn’t need to hear anymore than that and should have respected his feelings, but then went ahead and plastered all his private stuff to Reddit, including his size. Not okay. I’m also certain any one of his friends could come across the post and recognize the very specific situation.
Yeah, especially because he seems incredibly considerate and emotionally intelligent. But that doesnt mean things cant hurt him, I think that was messed up of OP
You are not wrong. If the roles were reversed they definitely would have called the guy who doesn't value his girlfriend and accept her for she is.TBH I wasn't surprised to see this because I have seen Jackie,Courtney and Shayne majority of the time do this in reddit stories.😐
The jump from "AITA for canceling my daughter's therapy because she has bad grades" To "AITA for telling my bfs mother that she raised a fucking sociopath who needs to be in a facility" Is just 😙👌
Same. Whenever I'm in a conflict I normally just aim to end it as quickly as possible (even if that means letting the person believe they won) because I can never really explain my point and why I'm crying without crying even harder.
this. certain family members would always make fun of me when i cried growing up, and my first partner just said as an adult my emotions were solely my problem. when i finally met someone who actually cared how i felt it was a huge eye opener that i had fallen into a cycle of neglect.
Yea. 9/10 times the person crying has been seriously hurt or abused emotionally. But 1/10 them crocodile tears work magic too. The 1/10 also delegitimize sensitive, empathetic individuals like yourself.
The fact the Trevor just * appears * in Smosh content, he's basically glorified cast. Like Tommy and Spencer are cast who happen to have other jobs as well, while Trevor is cast who isn't even on Smosh payroll.
Honestly they were half right about no one in the family being in the a**hole in the one about the Sister-in-law. The real a**holes were the boy who sent the initial video and all the kids at school who perpetuated the bullying.
I mean he’s still the asshole for not understanding her point of view whatsoever and then giving her such a strong punishment. She was a victim in this obviously and he doubles up on that by grounding her and making her feel like she completely invalid. Those are the kind of issues that cause long term distrust between parent and child. Because she will never be able to justify what her father did in the future as it was a matter of perspective her father never even attempted to communicate about.
@@WubbyPunch It's entirely possible that they have in fact tried to help their daughter deal with bullying because of what she was told and/or shown, but they also mentioned that her taking it out on her aunt by completely avoiding her had become a recurring thing, and punishing her for badmouthing and insulting her aunt because of something she wasn't directly responsible for is entirely justified.
@@WubbyPunch I think both parents understand their daughter's point of view. They just think it's a cruel and misguided one. They're right. You can't react to bullying by perpetuating it.
@@paulrundle5432 Yep. They seem to be good parents, although the punishment was bit too severe, daughter was definitely taking it out on her aunt that did nothing wrong to her. We can understand her point of view but that doesn't make her any right. And once again a warning about severe ramification going into "industry" may have on your and others life.
The man with the pad and tampon thing. Like alright, fair. Put a little toilet paper around them. But he wants her to flush them??? Dude you're gonna have a grand time with the septic after that.
Granted, that shows just how little he knows and is familiar with this stuff, and it only takes two seconds to explain that to someone instead of laughing in their face.
I feel like if the story of the woman making fun of his boyfriend's penis had been about a man bodyshaming his girfrield, Jackie and Shayne would've taken the story more seriously than they did.
The engagement ring one, she was completely the AH and the fiancé dodged a bullet. Also INCREDIBLY tacky and lazy to propose with your gf’s ex’s engagement ring lol love the “effort” the new guy put in.
That one parent who assumed that a therapy session is a tutorial service infuriates me. Like your kid is receptive to therapy. Continue that shit until she can be happy on her own terms. Her therapist is not teaching her math or science during the session ffs
Uh...7 inches is statistically HUGE... Under normal circumstances, that dude has no room to complain about size. But goddamn his girlfriend found a way to be an asshole about it.
Yeah, I find it pretty toxic to joke around about your SO's insecurities, not conducive to a healthy relationship. At least re-assure them if you do afterwards.
My thoughts exactly. You should never insult someone, but especially about things they can't control (body shape, size, perspiration, acne, stutter, etc.). Y'all want more emotionally whole men but still contribute to the negativity that we face each day.
@@hushy79 It's called being better. and having principles..aka not being an asshole. I don't want to be a sexist because I don't want to be an asshole, not because I want a trophy for not being one of "those" guys. Bruh.
I didn't see that he complained. But yeah, she was messed up for that. It's one of them situations where if the roles were reversed, they would've called him an ahole for embarrassing his girlfriend in front of everyone. There's a double standard for sure.
With the whole 'Cancelled therapy' story, as someone who has suffered anxiety and depression (and still is honestly) and therefore hasn't been up to or mentally be able to complete work to my normal level if I were in a good head space, that story makes me so sad that someone, especially their own parent, would ever take that course of action (which happened to be kinda messed up and toxic), to whomever has had an experience like this and has felt alone, just know that there are others with you if you need to talk
The father cancelling his daughter's therapy and the asshole who threw his shit-covered football are tied for being the worst. This should be a series, they're fun to watch/listen to 😊
Honestly I think the father is worse, he fully consciously valued 120$ more than his daughter's happiness! The shit ball dude probably had some kind of mental condition, so in a way I don't think that guy was the worst.
The father who canceled his daughter's therapy is the worst. Looks like his daughter's eating and being socially okay not important for him. Btw, Happy to see AITA here in yt
I will say, the WAP moment is either something the daughter and mom will be laughing over in a handful of years, or it will be one of the straws on the camel's back that come up at therapy, depending on the rest of the home situation. Don't get me wrong, the mom's not a bad mom (I mean she bought them pizza and delivered it), but as a teenager you're going through a lot and social stuff is pretty fragile sometimes, so I could easily see something mostly funny and innocuous like that being perceived as (or god forbid actually being) part of a larger pattern of social mockery.
“So, tell me where this all started?” “It all started when my mom danced to WAP in front of my friends and said i gave off dry pizza energy…” “Wow, that must’ve been hard for you.”
I was weirded out by it, the daughter clearly didn't like it, why are people not respecting her feelings? I get that is funny the whole parents embarrassing their kids but it should not be a free pass
@@EmyN it’s because in isolation it’s a harmless joke. But you’re right there could be other stuff behind scenes that make the OPs daughter’s reaction make more sense. Maybe the mom often makes sexually uncomfortable jokes and that’s why her daughter reacted so strongly. You never know
I couldn’t even watch this all the way through, the therapy story had me shook. Honestly most of the ones with parents just relaying some of the most toxic mindsets you could have to their kids just breaks me every time. I wish I didn’t see things that gave me reasons to say “this is why some people just f*cking shouldn’t procreate.” Happens way too often
I think AITA would be a great series to continue on a weekly/bi-weekly schedule. Maybe make it longer next time like 30-45 minutes, I seriously can't get enough of this stuff, it's fantastic!
for the BP, i feel like there should be a compromise of doing all the traditions (within reason ofc) for BOTH weddings. like as long as she is willing to do his traditions then he should be willing to do hers. otherwise it feels like a lack of respect
Yeah, I would hope she would if she already agreed to two weddings. Idk I feel like I'm on her side more, if she wants to do it, regardless of the tradition origins, it's her decision. If it makes him uncomfortable it's understandable but the way she said he was acting was like he was trying to defend her honor when she was the one who wanted it in the first place.
@@SiriusBigbadda It seems like there is more to the situation than what is made out. I feel like this is one of those times where we don't know all the details and it's being withheld. Lets say he and/or his family is paying for the two weddings and the only "Traditional" value they are imposing is the payment... might seem more questionable
@@AnExercisInThought " I feel like this is one of those times where we don't know all the details and it's being withheld." I mean, you gotta assume that by default with AITA, it's 40% rage bait, 50% Biased Validation Fishing and 10% semi-legit.
It may be weird for the wife in the sleeping baby story to want a second apology, but in her defense she's dealing with sleep deprivation and that can make you do and say things you wouldn't if your brain was well-rested.
Coming from someone who cries during fights-there are definitely people who do cry because they’re emotionally overwhelmed no matter what the emotion is. There are also people who can cry on command and use it. The difference is the crying on command usually comes from someone throwing a temper tantrum *in public* or like, in a TH-cam apology, for example. Sounds like that girl is the first one though
The crying wife story could go either way for me. It all depends on if she is genuinely upset and that’s just how she feels or is she the kind of person, and we all know someone like this, that cries fake tears to make you feel guilty and Then they win the fight no matter how wrong they were. So if she’s that kind of person then I don’t think he’s the asshole.
My exact thought. He spesified he hates yelling bc it's what his family did to him so there's a good two things 1. She cries easily when fighting/haveing arguments 2. She does it on perpous to make her partners feel guilty
@@Mushroom-Cosplays Admittedly though, yelling isnt the only way to come accross as cruel to the other person, especially in an argument when emotions are almost naturally at a high. You dont necessarily need to present with a raised tone of voice or increased intensity to become emotionally demeaning or harsh in a fight. So the only other option I might add to your original comment is: 3. She feels genuinely hurt by the things that he is saying and is responding to that under the pressure of the discussion/his choice of language is still emotionally damaging without the need for yelling, whether that is intentional on his part or not
@@sjs3623 i agree with your number 3 but, if she ALWAYS cries when an argument happens then it's quite unlikely. If he is genuinely saying things that would make her feel hurt and that much push her to cry every time she either needs to run for the hills or get therapy to help her better control her emotions in situations of high stress.
@@aidanlowrance1528 bro my endocrine disorder really messed with me. Like my hormones were out of wack and it was driving me nuts because I'd sob over literally stupid things (like boyfriend left an empty water bottle on my side of the bed) but I knew it was stupid and I shouldn't be crying, making me angry and frustrating me into crying even harder because I was crying for no reason. Luckily I got medicated for it but damn was it a miserable existence and boyfriend, now husband, was a Saint for putting up with it.
My ex told me I had to go to therapy because I was “too emotional” (aka I cried whenever we fought). Turns out that’s a part of ADHD which my ex never gave a shit about me having-but I always had to be aware of the fact that he was on the spectrum
Bring back the SmoshCast and have it the newer cast members talk! I’d love for Saige, Jackie, and anyone else new since SmoshCast was going strong to talk deep, real stuff!
Also if they don't get back to SmoshCast or just realistically can't cause of all the filming they do. They should at least start a show on ShootDood haha
bro, couldn't the therapy one be considered medical neglect? Legit question, like it saved her from probably being hospitalized for a variety if reasons
Maybe I’m just more tolerant of it, but the period one bothered me. As someone who has a sibling that goes through them, and having been in a serious relationship with someone that also went through them, periods are completely natural. Like I get that they’d never been around a female for their entire lives, but asking his stepdaughter to conceal her sanitary products just seems ridiculous. Assuming they all go on to marry women, they’re going to get that exposure whether they like it or not. So yeah, he’s the asshole. The stepdaughter and his wife were completely in the right to brush him off as ridiculous.
Agreed also the fact he aske sher to FLUSH them got me incredibly upset. The inherent nature of them is to absorb liquid so they end up clogging toilets so the only safe disposal of the is the trashcan. I think instead of telling her it was her responsibility to hide it he should of gotten a lidded trash can or explained to his sons how it was natural and they need to deal with it.
Yeah I see it as you do. If someone’s sons/kids are uncomfortable seeing a period product they’re to blame for not educating their children. If you have the same reaction to a bloody band aid or blood in general that’s obviously okay, but let’s be honest we all know it’s not about the blood but where it comes from in this story!
They got the exposure don’t worry. In an update the guy goes on to explain that the he and his son who complained we’re explaining to by the wife and sister why they were being ridiculous and in the wrong and they understood and accepted it. The girls even made a fun interactive power point about basic women’s health for everyone in the house so everyone even had a fun time in the end
I liked this, but I wish we got a bit more of y'all talking about it. The percentage of y'all reading the posts to talking about them seemed a bit too tilted toward the former, making it feel like it wouldn't have been too different of an experience if I had just gone and read the posts myself. I loved hearing y'all's takes and jokes, so I really wish we had more of it.
I just found the post about the Aunt, the daughter got every bit of right of being mad, as the very first comment states: She didn't sign up for it, she's 14, imagine what the other kids have said to her and how much psychological damage that do/can do, punishing her for being mad at her Aunt which only (or mostly) get hurt by her nieces rejection. Her parents could've prevented it.
The only time I'd ever say that the crying wife one wasn't TA was if she did it outside of arguments to get her way as well because that's manipulative. But like Jackie said, some people angry cry or cry when frustrated.
I love Smosh, love Shayne and the gang, but I could only get halfway through this. These AITA people are so vile and so clueless over how vile they are that I couldn't even appreciate how much Jackie was making me laugh.
Raising your kids to behave in a responsible hygienic way can be done compassionately by simply explaining that "When you have a spouse / S.O. one day, this is considerate." Then it makes it relevant to THEIR lives in their future. Both parents should have handled it like this.
I agree so much, WTF is a 17 year old child doing on tinder. A 17 year old going on a date with a 22 year old so already so scary thats 5 year if they aren't lying about there age and making it a few years younger than they are. Teens don't learn from words they learn from experience and actions. For her own safety i'm glad she had that happen even if it was a really bad experience but its better to have a bad experience with your family than a Stanger at their house.
Yeah but there’s other options they could have tried that didn’t involved public embarrassment. If she wasn’t already open and honest, she definitely isn’t going to be now.
While I think that's true, public humiliation plus her telling ALL of her friends this extremely embarrassing story is too much. I doubt she's ever going to trust her sister again. Plus she might still do it, but be even more sneaky
Think it was done before. I believe you can claim engagement rings as conditional gifts, meaning the gift only legally belongs to them if the condition was met (in this case a wedding).
When I was younger and lived with my sisters they cried when arguing. I cried after. I got irrationally upset when they started to cry, because you can’t yell at someone that’s crying. Good friends now though
Paying for TWO weddings AND a bride price might be a bit much to consider financially. Its rude of him to say its backwards, especially considering the traditional culture aspects but he is right, dowry's are very much antifeminist and put monetary value on women. Its extremely manipulative of her, however, to hold their wedding over him because he doesnt want to pay a price as it goes against his beliefs. Its emotional blackmail, do what I want or we cant be together. If you actually loved each other, you would discuss how and why each other doesnt or does want this in their wedding situation, not stomp your feet and hold your ground. Because the important bit ISNT the tradition, or the cultures involved, its how you feel about each other and if you can just... not marry a man because he isnt willing to "buy" you (or the right to MARRY you) from your family, maybe you just arent meant to be. Relationships are communication and compromise and if a lack of compromise threatens the relationship, its really not there at all.
Yeah there was a lot of 'woke' defending in this, some really poor takes from the cast. A lot of the people in this were not the asshole at all, but because its a man, apparently they just are by default.
I completely agree especially when the average bride price is $5,000 up to $30,000..even if the "symbolic" amount was less than that, it's still a huge amount of money to pay.
I don't think her issue was him not paying it... I think it was him deeming it 'backwards' and then refusing to discuss it with her parents. Basically just taking a shit on her culture
I think it would be completely different if her finance was not white. I think the problem here, at least from my view, is that the cultural practice is literally completely fine and there's nothing wrong with it as long as the woman is consenting, just for the love of God do not involve white people in it; because it turns it into a COMPLETELY different symbolism. I don't know what it symbolizes in her culture, but in my culture, a white man handing over money for marriage to a Black woman symbolizes slavery and complete disregard for human rights.
the catfishing post is SO dangerous. if i was the girl, i absolutely would NEVER let my family know ANYTHING about me again. like JESUS. like do you really think she's not gonna try that shit again? because that would just make me hide it better next time...
The therapy one is definitely the worst. I think the runner up is the dude saying his gf shouldn't cry during their arguments. I legit dated someone like that. He was usually affectionate but if we ever argued and I started crying, he'd act like I was just guilting him and would refuse to talk to me until I calmed down??? I didn't even realize how messed up that was at the time. So glad that relationship didn't last.
I mean you shouldn't argue when you are emotional, it seems like a good idea to calm down before continuing? But yes refusing to talk to you is a bit much.
I mean the poopguy was the worst tbh. The rest of them were quite normal. Also the Therapy dad, maybe talk to your kid a bit. Figure out why she doesn't study, is she so behind in her learning she needs help? Did he even consider that? If you fall behind it adds up quick.
This video/topic was way better than i anticipated. Honestly really loved just hearing all your different takes/seeing your reactions. More of these are absolutely welcome~x
Honestly… I’m concerned how many people agree that the sister should’ve been embarrassed so she wouldn’t do it again. She’s a teenager, she makes mistakes, she doesn’t deserve to be catfished by her brother, laughed about by her brother’s friends, and then publicly humiliated by her brother and father at a restaurant. The brother could’ve just told his parents she was on tinder and they could’ve had a family conversation. There are boundaries you shouldn’t cross with family, like pretending to be a hot guy online interested in taking you out (WHEN ITS UR BROTHER!!!) I feel for her and I don’t know how that will effect their relationship in the future, but I wouldn’t want to hang around.
The father who cancelled his daughter's therapy made it very clear why his daughter needed therapy in the first place, poor girl.
Whole heartedly agree
Seriously, my lord. As a social worker, there is minimal evidence punishment works when encouraging someone to engage in a behavior, and it isn't ever recommended due to reinforcement of healthy behavior having high efficacy where punishments do not. The daughter was working through her issues in an honest manner which isn't easy to do (she wouldn't ask to keep going if she didn't find it beneficial). Basically saying "I'll take away the resource that's been successfully working with you as a person to get through these obstacles in your life as to to improve other aspects of your life if I don't see an immediate increase in those aspects." And while it was mentioned in the video, if you go "Grades haven't improved, me only see spawn eating again and talking to people, me punish" you'd probably score lower marks than your daughter considering that level of critical thinking.
Yea, therapy shouldn't be a reward for good grades :(
yeah
@@thefifthbean this
The man who canceled his daughters therapy mad me so mad I started tearing up. That’s definitely abuse and neglect. If you know your child has mental health issues and intentionally stop them from seeking help you’re MORE than just an asshole. I really hope the mother is able to get her back into therapy
I read the post with an update and, apparently (according to OP himself), he finally listened to the comments, has educated himself, and put his daughter back in therapy.
I hope this makes you feel better, though it was still an awful situation.
@@JadedEyesSeeClearer thank goodness!
@@JadedEyesSeeClearer thank you for that update!
You actually teared up?
@@HAHATHATSWHATYOUGET why the fuck wouldn't you? That's disgusting shitty behavior for a fucking parent (or anyone else) to have. What the fuck
So fun fact the "secret period"/the skid marking sons actually had a really good edit and update where him and his son's learned and grew and accepted that they were being assholes and are now know more about female health
Good
Not only did they learn, but the wife and stepdaughter made a whole interactive power point and everyone had a good time and they were less weird about it. I wish they had read the update lol
That’s good to hear
Nice
The mom and daughter are a**holes. That’s gross and trashy. No matter if you live with men or not I live alone and dispose of my sanitary products discreetly because it is gross. Being gross and just throwing used period products in the trash has nothing to do with women’s health. Periods are natural and normal but being unhygienic and discarding others feelings is not normal it is shitty. The edit update just shows the men where manipulated.
Can we talk about how the stepdad could have solved his sons discomfort with period products by putting a lid on the trash can?
I mean you’re still going to see it when you open the can, it’s most likely that they are mad for the wrong reasons but I kinda get it because I don’t like blood at all, it doesn’t matter if it’s period blood or a nosebleed or a cut, I don’t like blood at all and everyone in my family wraps up bloody stuff in tissues
Or just be an adult and just put your used period napkins into a sanitary bag. For one I live with two sister and my brother's girl friend live with us. Your blood reeks and it's disgusting. Either find a different place to dispose them or just be a grown up and use a sanitary bag. He even asked. Because he could have been even worse and gave her the ultimatums of do it or move out, and wifey didn't like that then rethinking the marriage should be in the cards. Because he asked and didn't order it.
@@WaltonReimer Who gives a shit, you would really break a relationship over something like that? Sounds like dry pizza energy.
@@WaltonReimer his justification of "my sons haven't been around women and it makes them uncomfortable." isn't a justifiable reason to act like this is strictly her problem. there is an easy way to find a compromise of "please wrap it in toilet paper, but i will also talk to my son's about how this is normal and not something they should be uncomfortable with." everyone in this situation needs to act more mature.
not to mention considering he's the one who made the post, it's very easy for him to edit what he said to make him seem more reasonable and her seem like a major asshole. i cannot imagine someone having such a vitriolic response to just being asked to wrap period products up so the blood isn't visible, so it seems there's more he said that he didn't include. it creates implicit bias. (also, as a woman myself, someone with a sister and a mother, and someone who works in a small business where we equally share responsibilities for things like cleaning out bathroom trash cans for women's sanitary products, it really doesn't reek. if the smell is strong enough to "reek," someone needs to be taking out the trash more often.)
also edit: someone in another separate comment said "So fun fact the "secret period"/the skid marking sons actually had a really good edit and update where him and his son's learned and grew and accepted that they were being assholes and are now know more about female health." so to me, considering they *accepted* that they were being assholes, he was not fully honest about how the situation went down, and resolved it amicably because they were not in the right. so... yeah idk i feel like that's pretty revealing about the whole situation.
they could've just gotten another trash can lol
Update on the stepdad who got mad at his stepdaughter over her disposing her pads in the bathroom trash, he updated and said his wife sat him down with his son and gave them a lesson on periods which they actually enjoyed and it was a good time. He apologised to the stepdaughter. Just glad that someone on that subreddit was able to listen to constructive criticism and admit that they were badly in the wrong.
YUCK KADIRI NAMN SI ATE GURL. I HAVE 3 BROS BUT I ROLL IT AND PUT IT ON BAG. THEY DID NOT GROW UP TOGETHER. GALENG KEPYAS NYA YUN. ALL OF.THEM ARE NASTY.
Also he said it constructively but the bratty stepdaughter claps back. Ill mannered THEY DID GRO2 TOGETHER AND NOT BLOOD RELATED. ITS PRACTICALLY IT CAME FR HER VAGAYGAY. THESE ARE TEENAGERS. COME ON! HOW HAVE SOME HYGIENIC HABITS.
The worst one has to be the revoking of therapy.
The poopy football is traumatic too but damn the loss of therapy can determine everything moving forward.
it made me so furious
My wife suffers from extreme depression and anxiety and if she was going to therapy and it was doing loads of good and then it got canceled on her, to her that would feel like the 1 and only thing that could ever help her is gone so what's the point of going on. That father reserved himself a nice seat in hell for that action.
@@trumanzim not hell, satan might be hot. he deserves something else... no afterlife maybe?
Luckily there was a follow up, the dad realized how stupid and wrong he was, and kept her in therapy 😊
I only disagree with the ranking here because the mom is still paying for the daughter go to therapy, so dad is just playing a game of "who's going to the retirement home." Still awful because of his mindset, I just believe poopy football is worse because that guy is still out in the world wreaking havoc.
“I think telling her that she needs to get higher marks to continue therapy will motivate her” I’m speechless... like dude....her therapist is not a personal tutor wtf?? His daughter is finally getting the help she needs and is clearly thriving from it, by taking away her sessions all he’s doing it putting her back into that depressive state, I’m so glad the mother is offering to continue paying for her daughters therapy. Think I can guess who the subject of her sessions is 🤨🤚🏻
Also he’s a fucking idiot
I think he really enjoys retirement homes, especially the cheap ones, and is just trying to let his daughter know this
he acted like therapy was a reward and not literally something she needed wtf
It’s this idea that we need constant threats to motivate us. Can’t make life easier for homeless people because if being homeless isn’t bad then people wouldn’t work
The answer is always either;
1. OP has been gas-lit so fucking hard
2. OP is the most oblivious jerk ever.
3. It's fake
Ya, or it's made up to generate upvotes. Some of them are kind of obviously too assholey to be real.
@@tempestgaming1600 4. its always fake
I think with this kind of thing, you have to keep in mind that you are only getting one perspective. Obviously most people don't want to purposefully make themselves look like an awful person, so often you are getting the incomplete picture, where op is made out to be an absolute angel. I think that's important to keep in mind when making a judgement with these posts.
Of course, sometimes people just lie
Stop saying "gaslight/gaslit." You idiots use it for everything and its never correct. Relax. (Let me guess: You think this is gaslighting.)
That therapy one is insane, Did the dad confuse a therapist and a Tutor? Because it sounds like he wanted to get her a tutor and thought the therapist would just roll that into their sessions because he off handedly mentions her grades are bad at the end of a laundry list of issue that need REAL attention.
its a sad fact but some parents just care about how u make them look
@@jupiterzombiesmy mom is like that. They don't actually care for your struggles unless they have the POSSIBLY of making them look bad. Even if it's something that doesn't even make make them look bad
About the therapy one
The education system places WAY too much emphasis on grades and numbers. It’s never a strive to learn, it’s always just trying to get the best scores possible and not actually retain any information and that is DIRECTLY CONTRADICTORY to what school should be about
Obviously there’s a lot more to that one, like the fact OP thought his daughter was just “fixed” after a couple sessions and was being a manipulative ass but people have already gone into that
"WAP mom" and "winkie fell off" are going to be hard to beat in the legends category. Have enjoyed these streams so much.
They should have told the guy you can't flush period products
The nearly adult boys need to grow up. Women have periods.
The petty a-hole in me would have just done it anyway, and then laugh when the stepfather has to pay to get the septic system unclogged.
@@SiriusBigbadda I think the problem was her not wrapping up her products after use. To be fair I get uncomfortable when seeing bloody tampons and/or pads in the trashcan, and I'm also a female with a period. The human body is just kinda gross, though all of this stuff is natural. I was always taught to use toilet paper to wrap mine up by my grandmother and 2 sisters. But, I do agree that maybe the boys should be more educated.
@@lisachubs despite sharing the bathroom with two older sisters I never once saw their products because they wrapped them in toilet paper.
@@SiriusBigbadda Because women have periods that doesn't mean that they have the right to put their used period products in very visible places. I have hemophobia so to me period blood is terrifying.I may be an extreme case but wet again a lot of people fill uncomfortable around blood, so it doesn't seem unreasonable to me to ask the person that uses those products to wrap them with some toilet paper or something alse.
The “p*rn aunt” story is quite sad. To be a teenager is to misplace your anger. I hope that the mother has kept trying to get through to her daughter about this topic. That her aunt isn’t the one to be mad at, it’s the kids bullying her and weaponizing her aunt’s career against her. Reminds me of a kid I knew in school who got bullied a bit because his dad was a garbage man. The ridiculing died down by high school, but that must have been rough for that kid, a family member’s job negatively affecting you at school.
The p*rn thing is so much easier to weaponize and a whole lot more damaging on many levels, I hope the daughter comes to terms with it soon.
I mean she def shouldn’t have called anyone names or been so mean to people but they can’t force her to speak to her aunt or to hang out with her. It’s completely understandable that she wouldn’t want to look at her aunt ever again. I mean if I was sent a video of my aunt doing the stuff they do in “Adult Films” I’d prob bleach my eyes before ever looking at or talking to my aunt again. That’s horrifying seriously. And traumatizing tbh. I feel bad for everyone in that situation tbh. It’s probably pretty rough for the whole family tbh.
I got bullied in high school since my dad is in prison 🙃 idk why they thought that made me any less.
I don’t understand why people are having more compassion for the aunt rather than the teenager in that story. From the info in their post they never straight up asked how the teenager felt, why they hadn’t told her before, or asked what the bullies were saying/doing. Like I’m pretty sure her classmates are not just saying ”ur aunts a hoe”, they’re probably constantly sending photos and videos of her aunts p*rn to her and the rest of the school. And it should also be considered that she didn’t know the aunts job before the facebook comment, and that we don’t know the type of p*rn the aunt does. Personally I wouldn’t want to see my aunt in any type of p*rn, absolutely not when I was fucking 14 y/o. To top it all off her mom then takes her internet away for 3 months ”bEcAuSe ShE sAiD bAd WoRdS” and preach to her about sexism and treating sex workers with respect. Sex workers deserve respect, but the feelings of the adult star is not the issue at hand in this story lmao, it’s an issue of bullying and, IMO, an issue of parents caring more about the aunt than their kid being bullied.
I was bullied for 11 years straight so the fact that people (including her own family) are more concerned about the aunts feelings than what the teenager has possibly gone through is making my blood boil. Maybe they should be asking the kid what she’s going through rather than trying have a PSA at her school about sexism online to make it even worse for her 🤦♀️
I hope the mom helps her daughter by signing her up for some therapy sessions, because that really is a situation that can be so traumatizing to a teen.
@@KyleJB007 i dont think its understandable really i mean i wouldn't be that traumatized id probably be grossed out and then just repress it
The teenage boys one made me so mad. The youngest is 15 which means they should all know about and be mature about period products.
So true, but it's also kind of weird that she doesn't automatically just wrap it in a bit of toilet paper first. Her mom obviously doesn't either or she would have taught her that when she started her first period.
@@tanyacourter4535so, she should act as if it's something to be embarrassed about?
@@rebeccaholcombe9043 it's nothing to be embarrassed about, just like shitting is nothing to be embarrassed about, but that doesn't mean I leave it on the pot for everyone to see
To be fair if I went into the bathroom and saw that whilst brushing teeth or goin 1 or 2 male or another female would be kinda uncomfortable just like seeing someone's underwear it's kinda weird not too much but a little there's no problem with it honestly if there was like a tiny trashcan with a lid and peddle would work ya know
they made me mad too, but you were never a 15 year old boy so you have no idea what you would have known. 15 year old boys arent typically spending time learning about period products because they dont get periods. most of us know what periods are but we dont bring it up because its inappropriate if youre not a girl. these kids were just idiots
The dad who stopped taking his daughter to therapy genuinely hurt my soul
Dad is a piece of shit human being in that scenario.
He seemed like one of those "aW, m3nTaL he@LtH isN't eV3n reAL!" types
either that, or a straight up movie villain
For anyone wondering, he quickly realised he was in the wrong, apologised and continued with therapy. Fingers crossed he genuinely learned from all the replies.
@@samuelbrock I don't think so, he clearly stated that the therapy was helping her. Which is even more disturbing because he decide to took it from her anyway. I understand putting emphasis on your kids getting good grades but there's got to be a limit. It's not the most important thing in the world and never should be.
@@maczetamaczeta189 Oh yeah! That's right! He said he took it away because it wasn't improving her grades, right?
Honestly the fact that Jackie cries when angry is a tiny little nugget of joy for me.
I do it too and also when I have to talk about myself in public, and it's great knowing I'm not the only one.
you really aren't... I do it too... then I get even more mad because COME ON BODY DON'T BETRAY ME and it's a cycle lol.
I used to be this way and learned it was due to my anxiety; basically I had no control over my emotional response. Now that I take medication, I can have calm arguments and confrontations with people. It's pretty great!
@@katieb.1184 I've always cried really easily and I'm only just starting to accept it. one thing that helped is my therapist telling me that your body doesn't waste energy on things it doesn't think is important, so obviously some part of your body is like, "Hey, you need this." So if you think about it that way, maybe your body's not betraying you, it's just trying to help
I laughed for 5 minutes straight at "this lady smeagol" in the ex-fiancee ring story. Literally couldn't breathe😂😂😂
Shayne and Jackie’s dynamic is super adorable 🥰✨
I feel there dynamic is under appreciated, they bounce of each other real well especially in humor
I just feel like they are dating
THANK you! I love their dynamic so much and I feel like it's not often talked about.
Jackie has made a lot of jokes and stuff about liking Shayne and stuff lately so did they date?
@@justinspeece1609 I think they did or have similar dating experiences because she was hitting him a lot when they were talking about the marriage post
That "wet ass pizza" story is amazing. Thank you OP and thank you Smosh for bringing it to the people.
"Winkie fell off" also got me dying JESUS.
Now choose your tops, make it slop, that's some wet ass pizza
Choose some soda, or some pop, that's some wet ass pizza
Mozzarella in the crust,
That's some wet ass pizza
I'm talking WAP, WAP, WAP
That's some wet ass pizza
The winkie story is legendary
Shayne’s reactions during this whole video are topp tier, both the verbal ones and facial expressions. They made me laugh more than the posts at some points. Please post more of these!!
topp tier was good lmao
I definitely feel bad for grower not shower guy. That was clearly a joke that was only appropriate in private to the two of them. Can the wife just not fathom the idea of being insecure about something? I feel like that's one of those stories that if the roles were reversed, Shayne and Jackie would have definitely said op was an asshole.
She dare called 7 inches as "not big nor anything" i feel like the measurements were wrong or a lie.
Also please do not ever detail/specify the exact size of your significant other’s privates. Idc that it’s anonymous, it’s weird for anyone to do. Don’t talk about it to your friends, don’t talk about it with strangers, it’s incredibly inconsiderate and weird.
It wasn’t even needed for context, the important part was near the end where he expressed that it made him upset/uncomfortable. She didn’t need to hear anymore than that and should have respected his feelings, but then went ahead and plastered all his private stuff to Reddit, including his size. Not okay. I’m also certain any one of his friends could come across the post and recognize the very specific situation.
7” is not small. average size around the world is 5”.
Yeah, especially because he seems incredibly considerate and emotionally intelligent. But that doesnt mean things cant hurt him, I think that was messed up of OP
You are not wrong. If the roles were reversed they definitely would have called the guy who doesn't value his girlfriend and accept her for she is.TBH I wasn't surprised to see this because I have seen Jackie,Courtney and Shayne majority of the time do this in reddit stories.😐
The jump from
"AITA for canceling my daughter's therapy because she has bad grades"
To
"AITA for telling my bfs mother that she raised a fucking sociopath who needs to be in a facility"
Is just 😙👌
I really felt for that crying one. I absolutely CANNOT handle conflict at all, so that crying person would 100% be me.
Same. Whenever I'm in a conflict I normally just aim to end it as quickly as possible (even if that means letting the person believe they won) because I can never really explain my point and why I'm crying without crying even harder.
Funny part is, The crying wife spent 500$ on a purse when she didn't have a job and money was tight behind her husbands back.
this. certain family members would always make fun of me when i cried growing up, and my first partner just said as an adult my emotions were solely my problem. when i finally met someone who actually cared how i felt it was a huge eye opener that i had fallen into a cycle of neglect.
Yea. 9/10 times the person crying has been seriously hurt or abused emotionally. But 1/10 them crocodile tears work magic too. The 1/10 also delegitimize sensitive, empathetic individuals like yourself.
@@luciferandassociates9255 that doesnt necessarily mean it was crocodile tears
The fact the Trevor just * appears * in Smosh content, he's basically glorified cast. Like Tommy and Spencer are cast who happen to have other jobs as well, while Trevor is cast who isn't even on Smosh payroll.
Shayne is one of the smartest, funniest and most empathetic dudes I've ever seen on the Internet. Love him.
I think it's him, Damien and the Click that are the internet winners for me=D
Honestly they were half right about no one in the family being in the a**hole in the one about the Sister-in-law. The real a**holes were the boy who sent the initial video and all the kids at school who perpetuated the bullying.
I mean he’s still the asshole for not understanding her point of view whatsoever and then giving her such a strong punishment. She was a victim in this obviously and he doubles up on that by grounding her and making her feel like she completely invalid. Those are the kind of issues that cause long term distrust between parent and child. Because she will never be able to justify what her father did in the future as it was a matter of perspective her father never even attempted to communicate about.
@@WubbyPunch It's entirely possible that they have in fact tried to help their daughter deal with bullying because of what she was told and/or shown, but they also mentioned that her taking it out on her aunt by completely avoiding her had become a recurring thing, and punishing her for badmouthing and insulting her aunt because of something she wasn't directly responsible for is entirely justified.
@@WubbyPunch I think both parents understand their daughter's point of view. They just think it's a cruel and misguided one. They're right. You can't react to bullying by perpetuating it.
@@paulrundle5432 Yep. They seem to be good parents, although the punishment was bit too severe, daughter was definitely taking it out on her aunt that did nothing wrong to her. We can understand her point of view but that doesn't make her any right. And once again a warning about severe ramification going into "industry" may have on your and others life.
@@WubbyPunch minor detail but it was the mom who punished her. the father (brother of the aunt) said it was too harsh
The man with the pad and tampon thing. Like alright, fair. Put a little toilet paper around them. But he wants her to flush them??? Dude you're gonna have a grand time with the septic after that.
Most men don't know how period products work for obvious reasons.
That was my thought too. I was with him until that.
I read the comments of the post and the funny thing is SHE DID WRAP IT IN TP.
@@kimberleywilliams7802 you're kidding. so they really did just want her to pretend like she doesn't use period products🙄
Granted, that shows just how little he knows and is familiar with this stuff, and it only takes two seconds to explain that to someone instead of laughing in their face.
I feel like if the story of the woman making fun of his boyfriend's penis had been about a man bodyshaming his girfrield, Jackie and Shayne would've taken the story more seriously than they did.
The engagement ring one, she was completely the AH and the fiancé dodged a bullet. Also INCREDIBLY tacky and lazy to propose with your gf’s ex’s engagement ring lol love the “effort” the new guy put in.
That one parent who assumed that a therapy session is a tutorial service infuriates me. Like your kid is receptive to therapy. Continue that shit until she can be happy on her own terms. Her therapist is not teaching her math or science during the session ffs
Uh...7 inches is statistically HUGE...
Under normal circumstances, that dude has no room to complain about size.
But goddamn his girlfriend found a way to be an asshole about it.
Yeah, I find it pretty toxic to joke around about your SO's insecurities, not conducive to a healthy relationship. At least re-assure them if you do afterwards.
My thoughts exactly. You should never insult someone, but especially about things they can't control (body shape, size, perspiration, acne, stutter, etc.). Y'all want more emotionally whole men but still contribute to the negativity that we face each day.
And they don’t want males to be sexist. Like WTF is this
@@hushy79 It's called being better. and having principles..aka not being an asshole. I don't want to be a sexist because I don't want to be an asshole, not because I want a trophy for not being one of "those" guys. Bruh.
I didn't see that he complained. But yeah, she was messed up for that. It's one of them situations where if the roles were reversed, they would've called him an ahole for embarrassing his girlfriend in front of everyone. There's a double standard for sure.
With the whole 'Cancelled therapy' story, as someone who has suffered anxiety and depression (and still is honestly) and therefore hasn't been up to or mentally be able to complete work to my normal level if I were in a good head space, that story makes me so sad that someone, especially their own parent, would ever take that course of action (which happened to be kinda messed up and toxic), to whomever has had an experience like this and has felt alone, just know that there are others with you if you need to talk
And little did we know this was the start of an amazing series!
The father cancelling his daughter's therapy and the asshole who threw his shit-covered football are tied for being the worst.
This should be a series, they're fun to watch/listen to 😊
Honestly I think the father is worse, he fully consciously valued 120$ more than his daughter's happiness!
The shit ball dude probably had some kind of mental condition, so in a way I don't think that guy was the worst.
Their energy and expressions when they're reading is fucking hilarious to me
Wow. Shayne’s Reddit videos have come a looooong way since this video. They’re way more thoughtful about these now days.
The father who canceled his daughter's therapy is the worst. Looks like his daughter's eating and being socially okay not important for him.
Btw, Happy to see AITA here in yt
I will say, the WAP moment is either something the daughter and mom will be laughing over in a handful of years, or it will be one of the straws on the camel's back that come up at therapy, depending on the rest of the home situation. Don't get me wrong, the mom's not a bad mom (I mean she bought them pizza and delivered it), but as a teenager you're going through a lot and social stuff is pretty fragile sometimes, so I could easily see something mostly funny and innocuous like that being perceived as (or god forbid actually being) part of a larger pattern of social mockery.
“So, tell me where this all started?”
“It all started when my mom danced to WAP in front of my friends and said i gave off dry pizza energy…”
“Wow, that must’ve been hard for you.”
I was weirded out by it, the daughter clearly didn't like it, why are people not respecting her feelings? I get that is funny the whole parents embarrassing their kids but it should not be a free pass
@@EmyN it’s because in isolation it’s a harmless joke. But you’re right there could be other stuff behind scenes that make the OPs daughter’s reaction make more sense. Maybe the mom often makes sexually uncomfortable jokes and that’s why her daughter reacted so strongly. You never know
I couldn’t even watch this all the way through, the therapy story had me shook.
Honestly most of the ones with parents just relaying some of the most toxic mindsets you could have to their kids just breaks me every time. I wish I didn’t see things that gave me reasons to say “this is why some people just f*cking shouldn’t procreate.” Happens way too often
"It's not huge or anything, about 7 inches" that's FAR larger than the average, that's actually pretty large.
Also, that girl doesn't realize that 70% of males are growers, not show-ers.
Thought the same thing lmfao, that's 2-3 inches above average AND she said it's pretty girthy too but somehow "not huge or anything" 😂
Exactly, it sounds like she expects 9 inches, which is really rare
With that first girl, she's putting those guys into actual danger due to the.... age discrepancy
The fact Courtney and Shane just blew past that fact and attacked the OP lol shocking. This could’ve gotten those grown men in huge trouble
… she could’ve gotten hurt by one of those grown ass men.
shout out to rock the editor for putting this together
I can't believe how Shayne and Jackie's Sense of humour works so well. I think the Internet needs more episodes of them together lol
I think AITA would be a great series to continue on a weekly/bi-weekly schedule. Maybe make it longer next time like 30-45 minutes, I seriously can't get enough of this stuff, it's fantastic!
Jackie’s expressions are top notch 🤣🤣😂 more Jackie and Shayne duo!
for the BP, i feel like there should be a compromise of doing all the traditions (within reason ofc) for BOTH weddings. like as long as she is willing to do his traditions then he should be willing to do hers. otherwise it feels like a lack of respect
Yeah, I would hope she would if she already agreed to two weddings. Idk I feel like I'm on her side more, if she wants to do it, regardless of the tradition origins, it's her decision. If it makes him uncomfortable it's understandable but the way she said he was acting was like he was trying to defend her honor when she was the one who wanted it in the first place.
@Accel erator Also true
@Accel erator Assuming makes an ass out of you and me.
@@SiriusBigbadda It seems like there is more to the situation than what is made out. I feel like this is one of those times where we don't know all the details and it's being withheld. Lets say he and/or his family is paying for the two weddings and the only "Traditional" value they are imposing is the payment... might seem more questionable
@@AnExercisInThought " I feel like this is one of those times where we don't know all the details and it's being withheld." I mean, you gotta assume that by default with AITA, it's 40% rage bait, 50% Biased Validation Fishing and 10% semi-legit.
8:54 If his son's really care so much he should just get a trash can with a lid
It may be weird for the wife in the sleeping baby story to want a second apology, but in her defense she's dealing with sleep deprivation and that can make you do and say things you wouldn't if your brain was well-rested.
She might not even have registered the first apology because she's so sleep deprived.
The dynamic in their personalities is so bomb in these .
Coming from someone who cries during fights-there are definitely people who do cry because they’re emotionally overwhelmed no matter what the emotion is. There are also people who can cry on command and use it. The difference is the crying on command usually comes from someone throwing a temper tantrum *in public* or like, in a TH-cam apology, for example. Sounds like that girl is the first one though
Trevor's screams and laughs about the cut off 'winky' is HILARIOUS
god i love shayne and jackie’s energy together
Shayne and Jackie are so funny together, we stan this duo !!!!
Shackie? Jayne?
So they are duo they are dating now? Stupid fans
@@simpayshenaides nobody said anything about them dating. please unclench
@@melanie_margaret thats the other top comments is and any other videos lol
@@simpayshenaides you're getting mad at a made up person
"its not huge or anything about 7 inches" N-no im not crying I just have dust in my eye
The crying wife story could go either way for me. It all depends on if she is genuinely upset and that’s just how she feels or is she the kind of person, and we all know someone like this, that cries fake tears to make you feel guilty and Then they win the fight no matter how wrong they were. So if she’s that kind of person then I don’t think he’s the asshole.
My exact thought. He spesified he hates yelling bc it's what his family did to him so there's a good two things
1. She cries easily when fighting/haveing arguments
2. She does it on perpous to make her partners feel guilty
@@Mushroom-Cosplays Admittedly though, yelling isnt the only way to come accross as cruel to the other person, especially in an argument when emotions are almost naturally at a high. You dont necessarily need to present with a raised tone of voice or increased intensity to become emotionally demeaning or harsh in a fight. So the only other option I might add to your original comment is:
3. She feels genuinely hurt by the things that he is saying and is responding to that under the pressure of the discussion/his choice of language is still emotionally damaging without the need for yelling, whether that is intentional on his part or not
@@sjs3623
That makes sence (:
@@sjs3623 i agree with your number 3 but, if she ALWAYS cries when an argument happens then it's quite unlikely. If he is genuinely saying things that would make her feel hurt and that much push her to cry every time she either needs to run for the hills or get therapy to help her better control her emotions in situations of high stress.
@@aidanlowrance1528 bro my endocrine disorder really messed with me. Like my hormones were out of wack and it was driving me nuts because I'd sob over literally stupid things (like boyfriend left an empty water bottle on my side of the bed) but I knew it was stupid and I shouldn't be crying, making me angry and frustrating me into crying even harder because I was crying for no reason. Luckily I got medicated for it but damn was it a miserable existence and boyfriend, now husband, was a Saint for putting up with it.
My ex told me I had to go to therapy because I was “too emotional” (aka I cried whenever we fought). Turns out that’s a part of ADHD which my ex never gave a shit about me having-but I always had to be aware of the fact that he was on the spectrum
And that, my friends, is what we call a "double standard."
I'm glad you left him behind. Spectrum or not
@@esmooth919 definitely one of my favorite decisions lmao
ah, a fellow "ADHD person who cries when they're mad". wassuppppp
DO MORE OF THESE. I laughed so hard.
Listen to the “Two Hot Takes” podcast or or watch Her on TH-cam if you want to enjoy more content like this. It’s always great!
Bring back the SmoshCast and have it the newer cast members talk! I’d love for Saige, Jackie, and anyone else new since SmoshCast was going strong to talk deep, real stuff!
SmoshCast was one of my favorite aspects of Smosh because it felt so genuine... it’s great finding others who appreciate it too
Recently been going thru the SmoshCast on Spotify. Makes work go by way faster
PLEASE. I miss Smoshcast so much!! The cast is so diverse now every episode would be so rad
Jackie has been on a few episodes of the SmoshCast!
Also if they don't get back to SmoshCast or just realistically can't cause of all the filming they do. They should at least start a show on ShootDood haha
Shayne & Jackie are such a good team for these
bro, couldn't the therapy one be considered medical neglect? Legit question, like it saved her from probably being hospitalized for a variety if reasons
11:48 Jackie's face as she processes Shayne's joke is fantastic! 🤣
I replayed it so many times and laughed my ass off every single time!
Maybe I’m just more tolerant of it, but the period one bothered me. As someone who has a sibling that goes through them, and having been in a serious relationship with someone that also went through them, periods are completely natural.
Like I get that they’d never been around a female for their entire lives, but asking his stepdaughter to conceal her sanitary products just seems ridiculous. Assuming they all go on to marry women, they’re going to get that exposure whether they like it or not.
So yeah, he’s the asshole. The stepdaughter and his wife were completely in the right to brush him off as ridiculous.
Agreed also the fact he aske sher to FLUSH them got me incredibly upset. The inherent nature of them is to absorb liquid so they end up clogging toilets so the only safe disposal of the is the trashcan. I think instead of telling her it was her responsibility to hide it he should of gotten a lidded trash can or explained to his sons how it was natural and they need to deal with it.
Nah you’re 100% right. If the guy’s kids feel so uncomfortable they should be educated about it
Yeah I see it as you do. If someone’s sons/kids are uncomfortable seeing a period product they’re to blame for not educating their children.
If you have the same reaction to a bloody band aid or blood in general that’s obviously okay, but let’s be honest we all know it’s not about the blood but where it comes from in this story!
They got the exposure don’t worry. In an update the guy goes on to explain that the he and his son who complained we’re explaining to by the wife and sister why they were being ridiculous and in the wrong and they understood and accepted it. The girls even made a fun interactive power point about basic women’s health for everyone in the house so everyone even had a fun time in the end
11:47 I love how they burst into laughter at the exact same time
“AITA for refusing to buy my daughter Insulin because her grades are bad?”
please never flush period products down the toilet, it will destroy the plumbing
I liked this, but I wish we got a bit more of y'all talking about it. The percentage of y'all reading the posts to talking about them seemed a bit too tilted toward the former, making it feel like it wouldn't have been too different of an experience if I had just gone and read the posts myself. I loved hearing y'all's takes and jokes, so I really wish we had more of it.
yeah i agree. Them talking about it for at least as long as it took them to read it is a better formula
This was so much better than the computer generated speech you normally get of these
I just found the post about the Aunt, the daughter got every bit of right of being mad, as the very first comment states: She didn't sign up for it, she's 14, imagine what the other kids have said to her and how much psychological damage that do/can do, punishing her for being mad at her Aunt which only (or mostly) get hurt by her nieces rejection. Her parents could've prevented it.
Shayne and Jackie's dynamics especially after the football one is sending meeee 💀💀💀
The dude who canceled his daughter’s therapy was definitely the worst
I prefer my husband cook me a meal than to apologize a second time, and the dad canceling therapy was THE worst.
I sometimes forgot that Shayne got an degree in psychology and that he is a comedian actor, i need more of those
The only time I'd ever say that the crying wife one wasn't TA was if she did it outside of arguments to get her way as well because that's manipulative. But like Jackie said, some people angry cry or cry when frustrated.
I love Smosh, love Shayne and the gang, but I could only get halfway through this. These AITA people are so vile and so clueless over how vile they are that I couldn't even appreciate how much Jackie was making me laugh.
This has to be the funniest video I've seen all year. How Shane and Jackie play off of each other is absolutely hilarious
The pizza one was the wholesome energy I needed after the poo ball😅🥴
With a parent like that, no WONDER she needs therapy.
Raising your kids to behave in a responsible hygienic way can be done compassionately by simply explaining that "When you have a spouse / S.O. one day, this is considerate." Then it makes it relevant to THEIR lives in their future. Both parents should have handled it like this.
Let’s be real, if homegirl from the first story had just been told “no” would that really have stopped her from sneaking around?
THANK YOU. Lessons sometimes need to have an impact.
I agree so much, WTF is a 17 year old child doing on tinder. A 17 year old going on a date with a 22 year old so already so scary thats 5 year if they aren't lying about there age and making it a few years younger than they are. Teens don't learn from words they learn from experience and actions. For her own safety i'm glad she had that happen even if it was a really bad experience but its better to have a bad experience with your family than a Stanger at their house.
Yeah but there’s other options they could have tried that didn’t involved public embarrassment. If she wasn’t already open and honest, she definitely isn’t going to be now.
While I think that's true, public humiliation plus her telling ALL of her friends this extremely embarrassing story is too much. I doubt she's ever going to trust her sister again. Plus she might still do it, but be even more sneaky
You're right probably not
Legally the girl who wouldn't give her ex-fiance back can be taken to court over that.
Think it was done before. I believe you can claim engagement rings as conditional gifts, meaning the gift only legally belongs to them if the condition was met (in this case a wedding).
When I was younger and lived with my sisters they cried when arguing. I cried after. I got irrationally upset when they started to cry, because you can’t yell at someone that’s crying. Good friends now though
Ring Return. Important lesson I learned from How I Met Your Mother: "Never invite Exes to a wedding."
Paying for TWO weddings AND a bride price might be a bit much to consider financially.
Its rude of him to say its backwards, especially considering the traditional culture aspects but he is right, dowry's are very much antifeminist and put monetary value on women.
Its extremely manipulative of her, however, to hold their wedding over him because he doesnt want to pay a price as it goes against his beliefs. Its emotional blackmail, do what I want or we cant be together.
If you actually loved each other, you would discuss how and why each other doesnt or does want this in their wedding situation, not stomp your feet and hold your ground.
Because the important bit ISNT the tradition, or the cultures involved, its how you feel about each other and if you can just... not marry a man because he isnt willing to "buy" you (or the right to MARRY you) from your family, maybe you just arent meant to be.
Relationships are communication and compromise and if a lack of compromise threatens the relationship, its really not there at all.
Yeah there was a lot of 'woke' defending in this, some really poor takes from the cast. A lot of the people in this were not the asshole at all, but because its a man, apparently they just are by default.
I completely agree especially when the average bride price is $5,000 up to $30,000..even if the "symbolic" amount was less than that, it's still a huge amount of money to pay.
@@jameshyland7807 what are you talking about bruh 💀
I don't think her issue was him not paying it... I think it was him deeming it 'backwards' and then refusing to discuss it with her parents. Basically just taking a shit on her culture
I think it would be completely different if her finance was not white. I think the problem here, at least from my view, is that the cultural practice is literally completely fine and there's nothing wrong with it as long as the woman is consenting, just for the love of God do not involve white people in it; because it turns it into a COMPLETELY different symbolism. I don't know what it symbolizes in her culture, but in my culture, a white man handing over money for marriage to a Black woman symbolizes slavery and complete disregard for human rights.
I really enjoyed this. The cast was open, relatable and down-to-earth. The improv role playing between Shayne and Jackie made me laugh so hard.
the catfishing post is SO dangerous. if i was the girl, i absolutely would NEVER let my family know ANYTHING about me again. like JESUS. like do you really think she's not gonna try that shit again? because that would just make me hide it better next time...
the ring one is wild, like op is trying so hard to make it seem like it's not her fault 💀
The therapy one is definitely the worst. I think the runner up is the dude saying his gf shouldn't cry during their arguments. I legit dated someone like that. He was usually affectionate but if we ever argued and I started crying, he'd act like I was just guilting him and would refuse to talk to me until I calmed down??? I didn't even realize how messed up that was at the time. So glad that relationship didn't last.
I mean you shouldn't argue when you are emotional, it seems like a good idea to calm down before continuing? But yes refusing to talk to you is a bit much.
Honestly I'm scared that I'm being manipulative when i cry 😅 damn society has messed me up a bit
Please do more of these lol. Great video
I mean the poopguy was the worst tbh. The rest of them were quite normal.
Also the Therapy dad, maybe talk to your kid a bit. Figure out why she doesn't study, is she so behind in her learning she needs help? Did he even consider that?
If you fall behind it adds up quick.
The first one is so insane. WTF. Shaming and humiliating your sister by catfishing her... Damn.
So, is poopball not actually a real sport? Guess the P.E. coach pulled one over on us again.
Dang! That football thing was one huge emotional roller coaster. Also I love Shayne and Jackies dynamic.
The ring one absolutely blew my mind. I have no doubt that OP had some feeling towards their ex/best friend throughout the engagement too.
This video/topic was way better than i anticipated. Honestly really loved just hearing all your different takes/seeing your reactions. More of these are absolutely welcome~x
Bruh that one about canceling the daughter's therapy over grades hit TOO close to home
Honestly… I’m concerned how many people agree that the sister should’ve been embarrassed so she wouldn’t do it again. She’s a teenager, she makes mistakes, she doesn’t deserve to be catfished by her brother, laughed about by her brother’s friends, and then publicly humiliated by her brother and father at a restaurant. The brother could’ve just told his parents she was on tinder and they could’ve had a family conversation. There are boundaries you shouldn’t cross with family, like pretending to be a hot guy online interested in taking you out (WHEN ITS UR BROTHER!!!) I feel for her and I don’t know how that will effect their relationship in the future, but I wouldn’t want to hang around.
Shane's face during the therapy one 💀💀
This was everything I needed to start my day off with a smile! I would watch a hundred more of these!
