one time my brother reached out for a moth laying on the carpet and it "bit" him. It turns out it was a piece of glass. From that moment forward his psychological reaction to seeing a moth was that it could bite you.
I spent my entire life eating spinach salads almost every other day until last year. One day, while enjoying a salad, I spotted a green leaf bug nestled among the greens. I shrugged it off, thinking, "It happens." But the very next day, I bought a bag of spinach from a different grocery store, only to find a worm inside. I was stunned. I swore off salads for a month, then moved across the country. Feeling optimistic, I bought another bag of spinach, washed the produce, and made a salad. To my dismay, there was another leaf bug in it. Out of the last three times I've bought spinach, I've discovered bugs in the bags each time. It's like I'm cursed. I've given up on spinach salads and now stick to cucumber salads.
One time when I was a kid I opened a pack of cookies. They came in a box with 4 cookies in each pack. That day, the pack I opened only had 3 cookies, I felt a little bit sad. I told my mom and jokingly said to her that I should call the number on the box and inform them. But then I really called the number. I pressed the buttons on the telephone. On the other side was a sweet lady that was caught off guard and had a laugh with me. She told me she was gonna do her best to make me feel better for the missing cookie. A week later I received a letter from her apologizing for the missing cookie and a coupon with 20€ that I could use with any products from their brand. This was more than 20 years ago, but sometimes I remember that moment and feel a lit bit happier. This video somehow reminded me of that day.
Generational curses suck. Ours is that we have no presence. Imagine sitting somewhere only to have people look around the area, look you dead in the eye with _zero recognition_ that they saw you, and proceed to say that no one is there. It's spooky and has happened too many times to count. After getting trapped on the school bus at least twice (they literally locked it up for the night on the bus lot, but at least I got on the news!), locked in so many different "empty" rooms, and even being regularly forgotten on important emails I've just gotten used to it. When I see the blank glances like they don't see me, I say something. Spooks them good too. XD
@@PTV69420 True. I've heard a lot of secrets just from sitting there, but the flip side of that is that I also tend to get locked inside a lot of random places too. Considering I have zero sense of direction, it's a terrible time.
"The average person swallows 8 oil-rubbed bronze metal spring-loaded 6-hole door hinges in their sleep every year." Most people don't even know it's happening, but you can learn to live with this curse, Trent. 😢
6:17 my family also has a curse. At some point, everyone with the curse (pretty much my whole family) will die. It could be caused by anything, and it could happen at any time. It could be tomorrow, it could be 70 years from now. It's really tough to deal with.
The Mass Effect music is a subtle hint at the extraterrestrial origin of Trent's problem (ie, space wizards did a weird spell on one or more of his ancestors).
One time when my dad was making a casserole a small piece of a plastic spatula broke off somewhere in the food but we couldn't find it so we just told everyone to be wary of the piece of plastic, but then we ate the whole thing and no one had found it. The only assumption to make would be that someone ate it, but we never knew who.
I've got a different curse. Mushrooms grow on all of my electronic devices. Doesn't matter what I do or how new they are. I pick them off all the time but they just grow back.
There was a live bee on my sandwich one time. It was quite the surprise to find it in front of my teeth after biting down, with its stinger lodged into my lip. It didn't seem to inject any venom, but it also couldn't fly or walk anymore after I pulled the guy out. It was struggling really bad, so I had to put it out of its misery. Felt bad.
I had a similar problem. I kept finding these strands of hair in my food. It was almost a weekly occurance. Strangely, it seems to have stopped happening ever since I got a haircut, but I'm certain it'll happen again.
This is the perfect example if curses were real in real life. They wouldn't be crazy stalked by demons and all that, it would be extremely mundane and boring, like this. Love your humor keep it up
Maybe there's just this sweet grandma from a few generations ago that wants to tell you she loves you, but the only way she can interact with you is by putting things you are gonna notice in your food because Ghost Law is very strict on what ghosts can do
My family has the same thing. I keep finding a leaf in my food. Sometimes its this weird petal shaped seed thing. But most of the time its just some random leaf. Happens almost every time we have curry for some weird reason. One time I had some soup and there was just some random piece of parsley in there. It's always leaves though, never pebbles.
I'm born and raised in Michigan and I've never heard of using groundwater to fill a pool. But it's true Michigan is on a water table, so maybe there are areas where it's true.
I have the opposite curse, somehow I find bits of food in my thing. like, tonight I found bits of last night's dinner in my bed. Food bits are always appearing underneath the keys of my keyboard, and its always on seats and desks. Sigh
I once found a piece of steel wool in my bean and cheese burrito, that could have messed me up real bad. Also multiple pebbles in different beans, apparently that's common. Also a dead moth in my Cinnamon Toast Crunch. I also have a peanut allergy and I can't count the number of times there have been peanuts in my food and even in my drinks. Speaking of drinks, Gatorade can grow mold even if it's sealed and you just got it. It was like a huge ball of phlegm, it was probably the most disgusting thing I've experienced in my life.
I tell such a great jokes, that people will have to leave me right there and go home to tell that joke to their families. It just pushes me more when I can spread the joy. Lately people have been spreading that joke to their relatives too, because every time I call the phone line is busy. Not sure if this counts as a curse though.
My family has a thing involving shoes and scissors. I tried explaining the curse to my former workplaces at 2 separate occasions. Really no issue with the shoe part. But with the scissors we had a problem and they kept pressing the issue. In the end I had to leave and I'm 80% sure it is due to the curse. I warned them :/
I got a couple rocks and detritus in my lentils once. I think I must have gotten your family curse, probably from watching your videos. You need to be careful who you're exposing to this risk, Trent!
you should be glad about your family curse Trent, i dont have any curse but one time ive met a guy who had a curse related to birds, the curse was that if a bird land on his body, one of his bone would break, you maybe think "thats kinda specific, just avoid birds and he is gonna be fine", sadly everytime this guy singed birds would come near him, in the time i was friend with this guy he broke 2 fingers. One time we were going to play pokemon cards at a store, on the way there he just started singing the battle theme from pokemon red, 30 seconds later a very tiny brown bird landed on his head as he was walking and singing, 2 hours later the door of the card store slammed into one of his fingers.
I don't think I actually have the same curse, I can only imagine what it would be like. I imagine it like this: It's a nice late summer afternoon, when I would decide to go for a stroll. The birds would be chirping happily and a lot of smiling people would be outside. I would take the same route I always take. At least, till I would notice a narrow alley that I'd have never seen before. I would become curious why I would never have noticed it before and decide to divert from my regular route to discover this alley of wonder. Upon entering the alley, I would be amazed by a display of glinstering lights, colored flags waving in the wind and a small, but busy restaurant at the end of the alley. Suddenly, a breeze of wind would fill the whole alley with a mesmerizing smell of pasta, olive oil and garlic. Eagerly, I would walk to the restaurant. There I would take a seat and other a big plate of pasta with a large glass of coke to the side. The pasta would be so good that at first, I would not have noticed that you would have been hypnotized by the same display of lights and colored flags and the same mesmerizing smell as I was, and that you would have taken a seat at the table besides mine. At first, I would think "I know that guy from somewhere, but I'm not sure where I know him from". Deep in thoughts, I would keep glancing at you. You would notice this and ask me if everything was okay. I would become awkward and tell you in a quiet voice that I thought I had seen you before. This would lead to a brief interacting, where I learned that I you were the funny guy from TH-cam. I would tell you that I like your video's, for which you would humbly thank me for. You would also ask me if the pasta is any good. "Yes, it is", I would respond. After that I would not want to bother you too much, so I would keep eating my food without talking. After all, you would have come to that restaurant for the same reason as I did; to enjoy their mesmerizing pasta with a large glass of coke to the side. At this point, the waitress would serve you your big plate of pasta, with a large glass of coke to the side. You would thank her and start eating your food. You would put your thumbs up to me, to confirm that you like their pasta as well. It would take me another 5 minutes to notice that their was a hammer sticking out of your food the whole time. I would wave for your attention and say "Hey Trent, I think there is a hammer in your food. Look, it's sticking out of the top!". You would take a better look and suddenly notice the hammer as well. You would pull the hammer out of your food and tell me "That is weird!". You would ask for a new plate, which you would get. After I while I would finish my big plate of pasta and my large glass of coke. I would pay my bill and awkwardly nod you goodbye. That's how I imagine what it would be like to be cursed with finding weird items in your food. Anyway, thank you for being so kind in my imagination. Not all funny youtubers would be kind like that.
One time I was drinking a beer and then, in my empty can, found this huge nest of plastic at the bottom of the can. I showed my dad and he said "Oh whoops sorry I thought that can was empty". 😐
I bit onto a fork-broke my tooth-after I thought of putting mouse traps out, so I don't mess with mice now. (I was just eating too fast, but yeah the timing was wild.) Sorry for oversharing.
Ok I bit on a shard of glass that was INSIDE of some raw chicken I bought from the grocery store. Deadass this glass was a sharp triangle and I got so lucky I didn’t bite on it wrong or swallow it.
As I was watching this I was eating a salad for lunch. I noticed a black cat hair in my food. I thought, “Great, maybe now I’m cursed?” But my cat just likes to jump on the kitchen counter. Maybe my cat is cursed?
this one time i was making a promo video for my tv show and i gave a little girl $100 for the video and then told her it wasnt real and made her give it back because it was obviously just for a video and she said "i curse you" and then everything in my life started spiraling out of control until eventually something really bad happened that i'm not gonna say if you haven't seen the show
Somebody told bro to eat rocks and he did 😂😂😂
Noooooo bro its not like that!!!
Joel ruining the mood somehow feels right.
who wouldnt
As long as you wash them first, they're fine.
I think it’s “kick rocks”
I like to think that somewhere, in an alternate universe, a pebble was eating rice and they found a man in it.
I actually also have a generational curse where my brain gets smart but my head gets dumb
I hope you're making a sequel to The Last Square PRONTO SQUANTO
@@SiameseFaithHealersNetwork more like prequel, am I right? The First Square
@@The_Guyman 🤯🤯🤯
So much to do, so much to see!
“Yes.” No elaboration, big dad energy
I blame the guvermint. Stay safe Trent
one time my brother reached out for a moth laying on the carpet and it "bit" him. It turns out it was a piece of glass. From that moment forward his psychological reaction to seeing a moth was that it could bite you.
However, he still saves broken glass to this day, and will gently put it outside so it can live its life.
Trent Len-Curse-ski.
Dad... do you think it's a curse?
*yes*
This went in exactly the most interesting direction it could have
You and your mom are not alone Trent.
I’ve found a roll of paper towel in my soup one time and I’ve been traumatized ever since
Trent was blessed with height, good looks, and the ability to grow a luscious beard, but cursed to fear every bite of food for the rest of his days. 😮
I spent my entire life eating spinach salads almost every other day until last year.
One day, while enjoying a salad, I spotted a green leaf bug nestled among the greens. I shrugged it off, thinking, "It happens." But the very next day, I bought a bag of spinach from a different grocery store, only to find a worm inside. I was stunned.

I've given up on spinach salads and now stick to cucumber salads.
I'm sorry to hear that you're cursed as well. We'll make it through this together
Trent's mom sounds so sweet
One time when I was a kid I opened a pack of cookies. They came in a box with 4 cookies in each pack. That day, the pack I opened only had 3 cookies, I felt a little bit sad. I told my mom and jokingly said to her that I should call the number on the box and inform them. But then I really called the number.

A week later I received a letter from her apologizing for the missing cookie and a coupon with 20€ that I could use with any products from their brand.
This was more than 20 years ago, but sometimes I remember that moment and feel a lit bit happier. This video somehow reminded me of that day.
This brings me back to learning of my own family curses
"Yes."
One time I bought a bag of regular salad and found a piece of kale in it. Ruined my day.
I cracked my tooth on a piece of metal in a Stouffer’s lasagna.
There must be a way to break the curse!!!

Invisibility could be a pretty good superpower tho
If you haven't read about Forget Me Not from X-Men, you'd like him a lot. For such a guy, he's actually pretty memorable.
@@PTV69420 True. I've heard a lot of secrets just from sitting there, but the flip side of that is that I also tend to get locked inside a lot of random places too. Considering I have zero sense of direction, it's a terrible time.
@@TheTH-camGame Haven't heard of them, but I can check them out. I only know the mains from the 90s cartoons.
Hey, why's there a blank comment here?
"The average person swallows 8 oil-rubbed bronze metal spring-loaded 6-hole door hinges in their sleep every year."
Most people don't even know it's happening, but you can learn to live with this curse, Trent. 😢
"as you get older you find more stuff" 😂
When life gives you pebbles, paint them and make a rock garden.
When life gives you a little piece of plastic… uh… recycle it, I guess.
glad to see someone else lives with family curses, especially the frozen rice thing
Classic Lunkorski.
"Thankfully none of my teeth shattered, it just felt like they did."
Phew, that was a close one!
I think this is what happens when one builds a house on top of an ancient Native American garbage burial ground.
One of MANY family curses she said. I’m right there with you pal
WHY IS EVERYONE TRYING TO FEED YOUR MOM GLASS?? IT'S A CONSPIRACY!!!
My family curse is that if someone says something that is in a song then everyone starts singing the song
Also if the song is playing in the background then everyone tries to yell out the artist of the song first
Guess you'd better eat with one eye open.
6:17 my family also has a curse. At some point, everyone with the curse (pretty much my whole family) will die. It could be caused by anything, and it could happen at any time. It could be tomorrow, it could be 70 years from now. It's really tough to deal with.
My family’s been cursed for generations. Every day at least one person will ask what my surname is, even when I’m having a presidential bubble bath
Joel has it tough when the eggs hatch, but not as tough as Trent, when the eggs have rocks inside
i'm so sorry trent. i know an old witch who lives in the woods who might have a cure if you're ever interested

This family curse themed meditation was so relaxing, 10/10
The first pebble was probably just some bone that fell into the production line. No biggie.
There was a live bee on my sandwich one time.
It was quite the surprise to find it in front of my teeth after biting down, with its stinger lodged into my lip. It didn't seem to inject any venom, but it also couldn't fly or walk anymore after I pulled the guy out. It was struggling really bad, so I had to put it out of its misery. Felt bad.
Once I ordered French fries and they put an onion ring in the bag
I have a different curse but I found a pebble in my food once so I think I can relate.
The only question I have left is: Will Trent use this cursed power for good or evil?
Good luck to all the Lenkarskis!
I had a similar problem. I kept finding these strands of hair in my food. It was almost a weekly occurance. Strangely, it seems to have stopped happening ever since I got a haircut, but I'm certain it'll happen again.
This is the perfect example if curses were real in real life. They wouldn't be crazy stalked by demons and all that, it would be extremely mundane and boring, like this. Love your humor keep it up
Pretty sure I'm cursed to just have a traumatic life and be forever alone.
excellent song choice, one of my favorite drones for meditation
Good luck with the curse Trent!
Maybe there's just this sweet grandma from a few generations ago that wants to tell you she loves you, but the only way she can interact with you is by putting things you are gonna notice in your food because Ghost Law is very strict on what ghosts can do
The frozen rice being cooked twist was something none of us saw coming.
Trent has very striking eyes 😊
My dad found a bolt in his Hungryman once oh no am i gonna be cursed too
Bros luckey, my family curse is just alcoholism.
Your dad's emphatic "Yes". hahahah
So this is why you opened a rock stand

stay mouth-vigilant Trent
I once found Red 40. 😳
One time at a Japanese Hibachi place I found a box staple in my salad. Sometimes its so comforting to hear mundane conversation.
I'm born and raised in Michigan and I've never heard of using groundwater to fill a pool. But it's true Michigan is on a water table, so maybe there are areas where it's true.
I once found a screw in my mashed potatoes
I have the opposite curse, somehow I find bits of food in my thing. like, tonight I found bits of last night's dinner in my bed. Food bits are always appearing underneath the keys of my keyboard, and its always on seats and desks. Sigh
I have to imagine using the same soundtrack as "The Empty Bowl" was intentional
I once found a piece of steel wool in my bean and cheese burrito, that could have messed me up real bad. Also multiple pebbles in different beans, apparently that's common. Also a dead moth in my Cinnamon Toast Crunch. I also have a peanut allergy and I can't count the number of times there have been peanuts in my food and even in my drinks.

Every time I watch one of Trent's videos I have an existential crisis, but like, in a good way.
Your dad sure is a talker.
Boy, that's a lot to take in
One time I found a piece of a pen in my spaghetti
Love the performances in this one Trent.
I tell such a great jokes, that people will have to leave me right there and go home to tell that joke to their families. It just pushes me more when I can spread the joy. Lately people have been spreading that joke to their relatives too, because every time I call the phone line is busy. Not sure if this counts as a curse though.
This is haunting... I would fear my food for the rest of my life. At least you now know how you are going to die.
Actually its not a curse, its good luck and greek people make cakes with coins in them to imitate what its like to have this happen.

At least it feels good to be validated by your family. Keep your chin up and your throat clear bud!
I always enjoy your videos trent thank you! P.S. Thanks for the bean painting
I'm pretty sure it isn't a curse but happens so often to everyone, not just your family.🤣 You guys are nuts
I don't think I actually have the same curse, I can only imagine what it would be like. I imagine it like this:

Why is Cinnamon Toast Crunch trying to get Cinnamon on my plastic!? I'm gonna be sniffing plastic for days following this conspiracy.
You never know what is gonna show up on your plate 🥺

One time I was drinking a beer and then, in my empty can, found this huge nest of plastic at the bottom of the can.
I showed my dad and he said "Oh whoops sorry I thought that can was empty". 😐
the beard seems smaller than i remember.
I bit onto a fork-broke my tooth-after I thought of putting mouse traps out, so I don't mess with mice now. (I was just eating too fast, but yeah the timing was wild.) Sorry for oversharing.
This feels Daxian
My family curse is just bad knees :(
Who is this hunk and where is Trent?
I once found tiny baby crabs inside mussel shells.
Don't die yo
Ok I bit on a shard of glass that was INSIDE of some raw chicken I bought from the grocery store. Deadass this glass was a sharp triangle and I got so lucky I didn’t bite on it wrong or swallow it.
That chicken was cursed to eat glass too

You counter is cursed, that’s all.
Sorry Trent
this one time i was making a promo video for my tv show and i gave a little girl $100 for the video and then told her it wasnt real and made her give it back because it was obviously just for a video and she said "i curse you" and then everything in my life started spiraling out of control until eventually something really bad happened that i'm not gonna say if you haven't seen the show
