Folks, I'm a little conflicted on that second story. On one hand, a part of me understands where his wife's coming from. I could see why you'd want a heads up or to be asked permission for something like that. But on the other hand, his beans are literally at their absolute cleanest when he's using the dryer, he's not touching them to the dryer, and it's hilarious. Personally it wouldn't bug me but I feel like this situation is a case-by-case thing. Lemme know what y'all think. 👇
Hum... aside from that, you guys know that heat kill the swimmers, right? That's the reason why the boys are hanging, so that the swimmers are kept at a lower temperature than your body's. So using an air dryer in that area doesn't seem like a good idea to me...
I would be concerned he'd burn himself because dryers can get very hot. But if I walked in on my man warming his bean bags and humming the halo theme (or imperial march in my man's case) I'd be doubled over giggling. It's not a red flag for me. Just a concern.
@DustinPoynterVideos, are you watching the Halo series on Paramount+? It's such an awesome show.
@@Meanne77 I mean most hair dryers have cool modes, don't they?
If they're clean, I don't see the issue. I would be laughing my butt off, but to be fair... I've used hair dryers for more than just the top of my hair. If he isn't teabagging it, her Dyson's fine. Or get one for him, one for her. 😛
That first story... He cried, I cried, the girl in the story cried. We all cried. 🫂
Right? 🥹
WE ARE ALL EXPERIENCING A FIT OF WEEP RN
I know right 😭😭😭
Confirmed I cried a little, yeah
here, here, some water.. we need to hydrate after all the flood works
For the first story, something I recently learned: Kids from bad homes who start acting out do so because they feel safe to express all the negative feelings they were forced to bottle up for their own safety. It means she feels safe and trusts OP to show all of her emotions.
Boy, when I was a foster kid, this guy would have been a dream come true. Way to go dad!!!
CERTIFIED GREEN FLAG DAD!
I hope you found the love and support you need later in life instead. You deserve to be loved and nurtured no matter what your age is.
I was never a foster kid, and he still would have been a dream come true.
@@Serai3 same
Honestly, if I walked in on my husband using my hair dryer like that, I'd die laughing right there in the bathroom, _especially_ if he was humming the Halo theme song lol his balls are clean since he just showered, so who cares?
Fr. Maybe it's my autism, but she said he could use it how he wanted to get their money's worth. If she never specifically stated not to use it there, how could he have known not to?? She could've stated "Use it how you'd like anywhere, but down there please." Cause if I'm not explicitly told not to or to do something when given a broad answer, I'm going to assume it's fine unless stated otherwise.
I wouldn't have cared, except for the fact it cost me $400 to buy it.
@@meepmoop9078 she didn't say he can use it *where* he wants but *when* he wants tho
My GOD. That last one? The way he held that cat, he was so gentle, you can tell he was hurting but he still sounds like he has so much love to give dude.
“Being your dad has been enjoyable” just sucker punched me so hard 😭 ❤ I’m so glad they have each other.
About the dryer, though? It blows. It doesn't suck.
I'm a lady, and I honestly couldn't give two sh*ts about my hairdryer being used to, you know, actually dry things?
What, is there some mystical sphere of permitted application? It's a DRYER.
It's a better use than what my husband did with my first hairdryer as a married couple. He took it apart for the heat coil.😂😂 25 years later, and I know that if I spent that much on a hairdryer, you had better believe anything, and everything that needs drying will be dried by it.
I agree, if he's only using it after he showers (and he showers properly, something I hope a grown man can do) then it should be fine. It's not likely he's actually touching anything down there with it, as even on low temperature settings blow dryers get pretty hot. Ouch 😂
@@sunburstisland2560the dyson has safety features to prevent burning.
@@spacecat1974 Even with safety features I doubt it would feel good to put it directly against the skin of your nether regions.
I, personally would find it absolutely hilarious if my husband did that..😂 I mean, why not? Lol
The video clip. I followed him on twitch. He 3d prints and paints on livestream with his kitten Tigger. Pretty chill dude.
He seems like such a wonderful man. I’m happy for him ❤
How many subscribers does he have? I don't have twitch so I can't check٫ and im just curious to see how well he is doing٫ and if more people are there for him :)

Waterworks in 3 minutes and 30 seconds... 😭❤ Her daughter has been through too much at such a young age. Omg. 😭😭 He was made to be dad.
TEARDROPS ON MY KEYBOARD (DUSTIN'S VERSION)
@@DustinPoynterVideos omg Taylor Swift lyrics 😭 I love you even more
My uncle gave me a silk shirt when I was a teenager. I put it in my grandmother's dryer, the shirt was fine but the dryer was blue forever after. So my dad bought me a hairdryer for my shirt. No wrinkles dried quickly and no more blue dryers. I had that hair dryer until a couple of years ago when my daughter took it to dry her hair with. I'd never even tried to dry my hair with it. Only clothes that couldn't be put in the dryer. It's still going strong. It's 26 years old now.
What a lovely story! I still have a working hairdryer that I bought at Kmart in 2003... amazing little pieces of machinery for sure!
As a woman I cannot comprehend being upset with someone for using something when I told them to use it. It's not like he's out there scrubbing his balls with it, and he's directly out of the shower so it's clean. The dryer literally blows air away from it so none of the water would even come close to it. The wife is being sensitive, and to be honest if I saw that scene it would likely be the funniest thing I've ever seen and I would forever hum Halo songs to mess with him. On top of that, using the Dyson makes him cleaner and more comfortable through the day? Yes, please. Good hygiene is such an important thing.
when my bonus daughter told her friend i was her mom at a 1st grade school event randomly, i had to go in the bathroom and ball like a baby 😂
Awww ❤
“Thanks Dad” 😭❤️ I’m crying. That poor girl has been through so much and my heart breaks that she longs for a mother. Maybe one day she’ll get one, but she has a phenomenal dad! I wish them both the absolute best in life.
The first story is so sweet. He's a unicorn.
The second story, I really wouldn't care how my hair dryer is used, as long as it's clean and doesn't get broken. 🤷🏻♀️
The guy streaming 😭This is why people need to open up and TALK to each other.
ETA: you are quickly becoming one of my favorite people on TH-cam. 🖤
I know you probably get more engagement from the red flag videos... but please don't stop making the green flag videos, they're so much better. I really like them a lot, they give me hope
That dad, I'm crying, he's doing the best he can in a really weird situation and trying to help his daughter who's been through so much and that's so sweet
That poor kid went through all the stages of grief, thankfully he recognised that. What a lovely story
Man, the first story made me realize how lucky I am to have my dad in my life. This poor girl was abused and neglected her whole life, not knowing that her dad didn't know of her existence. I'm thankful for what my dad has done for me all my life. I hope he gets the hang of being a dad.
The halo helmet was angry you put it down lol
And this is fair because I promised that I would wear for it for the duration of the story and I didn't. RIP 💀
@@DustinPoynterVideos be careful it might start showing up in unexpected places. So make sure to show it some extra love.😂
The Dyson dude has a point though, I had a doctor actually recommended it to me and boy, it really does make you feel cleaner and more comfortable throughout the day
I think it might be even more useful to ppl with The Other Equipment. Keeping it nice and dry down there goes a long way to prevent infection and irritation. I’d recommend doing it on cool tho
Hearing the first story firmly restores my faith in humanity, love your videos.
It's such a good one 😭And thank you so much!!
The lights of the helmet turning on for seemingly the 1st time was also extremely wholesome :)
I almost didn’t even put it in the video out of fear of people thinking I faked that. But I ended up saying screw it and left it, because I know it’s a genuine happy accidental moment and it was one of my favorite parts of this whole video 🤣 i was nerding all the way out
@@DustinPoynterVideos I like to call it The Bob Ross effect.
I think your entire format is honestly amazing. Calling out people who behave like assh*les and showing love for people who do right. It's beautiful to see on the internet these days. Keep up the awesome work and take care of your lumbar, we all want to have you around for a while. Lol
Dude thank you so much!! I really love making more positive stuff like this and I fully plan on getting into more of it. I can't exist in the completely negative space all the time haha. I put a heating pad on my lumbar right after filming for this video!
Okay, can we all take a moment to acknowledge how patient, emotionally attune, and just overall AMAZING that dad is in the first post? Like...I can't imagine what she went through as a child. Then to be placed with someone who, let's face it, was a total stranger at first despite their genetics, and having him be both caring, compassionate, and not overbearing is miraculous.
First story.
I’m adopted, out of a very young unwed relationship. My parents have taken unbelievably good care of me and have loved me my whole life. It wasn’t a messy adoption, but I don’t think many adoptions can be called “smooth and easy.” I’ve seen how much adoring and sacrificial effort my parents have put into giving me a good, loved life of safety. I owe them everything. I’m so grateful to be alive, happy, healthy, and loved. I hope all the very vets for this sweet dad and his sweet daughter. I hope they have the most amazing lives.
That’s the kind of love people were meant to think about with the phrase, “God the Father.” That’s the kind of love that the Divine Creator chooses to associate as. Forgiving, patient, willing to go however far as needed to show compassion. Wow. That’s what love is supposed to look like. Sir, you are doing your best, and you’re definitely doing something right ❤️
I placed my baby for adoption and it hurts my heart the way you talk about your birth parents. It’s the hardest thing I’ve ever done. Please don’t think they took the “easy way out” I promise you it’s not. I have a very open adoption and we visit and talk all the time. I know they aren’t all like that but it’s not easy to make the decision knowing someone else is raising your baby, whether it be open or closed adoption.
The first story had me crying.
My father has been in my life, my entire life but he’s still an absent father. My mother has to beg him to talk to his kids and put down his phone, he was never around to do things with us growing up u less he thought it would be fun for him to, no concern about weather his kids would want him around or not. amazing that man took that father role so quick when some can’t seem to do it at all. Good on him.
Ugh I love a good daddy/daughter story! When my parents split we had to movie in with my dad and before he wasn’t the most nurturing but something changed in him and he acts like a mom and a dad. I hope those two continue to have the best relationship ❤😊
He probs realised he was on his own now and if he messed up then he could lose yall 💗
I've noticed that my brain shifts when going from "im in a group/duo" to "dang im the only adult here"
I would not care about the hair dryer thing 😂 I would laugh honestly. "Hey babe where's the chee-......whatcha doooooin..?" Then on the floor crying 😂😂😂
So I've cried in both of these put out. I didn't think that the man who talked so kindly to his wife's previous, deceased husband would be topped for me. But the last one really brought me to tears. I've been in the position of 'how do I get my medication now?' and to see him at over 200k followers now! Brilliant. All it took was one kind soul.
Just knowing that dads like the first one exist in the world, and hearing his story, has healed about a quarter of my childhood trauma!
Emotionally, that sweetheart of a twitch streamer, and I are in the same place. I would never have the confidence to stream, as I really think not having anyone care, or want to waste time on me would be a gut punch my shattered self esteem can't take. But knowing that there are such awesome people like the guy who supported him, and opened up his world the way he did, is enough to make me so happy that people like this exist!
I think the guy should have let his wife know how he was using her dryer, if only so she could enjoy the antics along with him. Then she could also veto anything she doesn't like. On the other hand, using a dryer that never touches you is far better than my ex's habit of using whatever towel he wanted (we each had one in the bathroom) and being absolutely _bewildered_ every time I'd ask him to stop using mine to dry himself. Why did he even keep a second towel in there if he didn't understand there was one for each of us? I will never know.
Finally green flags!
IT'S A GREAT DAY FOR A GREAT MOOD!
I'm going through a very rough time. I have no support system and it hurts. These stories help me remember there are still good people out there and maybe they'll find me one day.
Keep going friend ♡♡
I hope you can find your own family/support soon. Maybe, if you can, adopt a lovable creature?
About the dad letting his daughter use him as her punching bag. I've never been in a situation like this, but to me that sounds like it might actually be a good sign. It sounds like she never had a person who she could trust enough to say things like that to. I'm sure there's a lot of learning to do on both parts when it comes to handling those situations, but at least she trusts her dad enough to know that voicing her opinion won't lead to punishment. It seems like she had grown confident enough to know he'll always be there for him. It sounds like he's the best dad he can be under the circumstances, and it seems she recognises that. I'm glad she finally found a good loving home
Your channel makes me laugh and cry (for good reasons) and I’m so grateful for people like you! Keep up the amazing work! ❤
humanity's potential for cruelty can only truly be trumped by our potential for love.
That last one ❤ he needed someone to listen to him and the right person came around. I love that, and I love that he's rocking it. Good for him.
This is probably the only time it ever made sense for a man on reddit to seek a paternity test lol
That kitten. Oh my goodness. If I watched streamers, I'd start for the kitten, but I'd stay for the golden retriever of a guy balancing the kitten on his shoulder.
That first story had me sobbing 😭 I'm a woman in my late 20's and I grew up without a dad. To see a guy stepping up and being the best freaking dad he can be makes me so happy
That video had me so close to crying, I can only imagine how hard that must've been for him but he still made it through
That dad is an A+ human. not many people in a similar position wouldve stepped up like him. and he deserves nothing but respect!
I... don't understand why it would be a problem with the Halo blaster? It's not touching, is it?
Honestly, people online were saying that he did it without permission or a heads up, and a part of me agrees with that. But overall, I think he's just fine and having some Reddit fun. And I bet he would be a worthy Halo opponent
i don't understand either. to me it's just hilarious 🤣
I think asking first is just a good idea in general when using things that aren’t yours or shared, but as long as they were clean it shouldn’t be an issue
Story 1: It's too bad that young girl didn't have her dad in her life from the start. He's a wonderful dad.
I've worked in Mental Health for many years. For a couple of those years, I worked with DHS to reunify families. Some of these families had no business getting their kid back, to be honest.
The first story is exactly what we hope for.
The first story broke me. I have a very very strained relationship with my father, who I live with. It just made me realize my dad has never seen himself as a dad. Just the caretaker of a fucked up drug addict. (I've been clean almost 18 months. And I am putting in all the work, all of it.) I realize this relationship will never change, but it made me so happy to see it become something so beautiful for someone else. I'll be ok, the world will keep turning. But I guess I have something to bring up in trauma therapy tomorrow morning. Thank you for these videos, they really make my day enjoyable.
Story 1: I’m ashamed of how long it took the alphabet dad joke to click for me.
Story 3: it’s easy to get jaded about the behavior of men because we’ve become so aware of how widespread the bad examples are that it’s easy to forget how many amazing men there are. But this last story especially gets me.
The man who was streaming could have gotten a million followers in no time screaming about how the world/the libs/women/gays/immigrants did him wrong and instead he just gently talked about things to himself until someone joined the conversation.
And the OP: he could have spread this guys information to the toxic subs to make fun of him to people who will never remember who he was after they were done mobbing the streamer, and instead he stopped and made a connection and changed the man’s world.
I needed that story. Thank you.
That last story made me cry. Omg.
I was diagnosed with PTSD a few months ago. It explains a lot of the trauma responses i have to certain things. I also get nightmares where i wake up screaming. Thankfully, they're less frequent now that I've moved out, and for once, I can go to sleep without fear of having constant nightmares. I really commend OP in the first story for being so patient with his daughter. There have been so many times that people bave outright dismissed my trauma, told me I was "just being dramatic" and so on. Trauma can manifest in ways that you don't realize and to have someone who is willing to learn while being supportive of you and reassuring you that you are doing ok, even when you feel like you're not, is so important. This father is more than a green flag, he is a golden flag 🏆🏳️
If I had walked in on my partner drying themselves downstairs with a hairdryer, I would need oxygen because that is hilarious 😂
i could've been the mom with the two daughters in the first story though. i mean i'm not, but my husband died a few years ago and i would've also cried (and frequently do cry) at the sight of a teenage girl with her dad, because that's a relationship my daughters won't experience. i would've been jealous too. we just can't know how much heartache there is in every side of every story. thank you for sharing green flags today.
I'm sorry about your and your daughters loss. Hope you're all healing well.
As long as the hair dryer wasn't touching anything, I don't see why it would be a problem. Maybe she thought he was using it for something _other_ than drying the hair down there?
You are AWESOME!!! Thank you for what you do! ❤
THANK YOU for being here!
The first story has me crying
Hearing about the girl going through a panic attack or being onnthe verge of one it made me thing of something i use for mine. I learned this in outpatient. I run my hands under cold water or hold ice. Not long enough to hurt but enough to focus and cool myself down because i personally feel like im going to like explode (idk how to describe it. But its like i feel so struck with emotions i heat up a lot) and cooling myself down helps a lot. Idk if itll work but i figured if i could put my little tip out i could hopefully help someone
Not even done with the first story yet and I'm WEEPING
The dad in the firdt story definetely needs a good dad award!
Also this story made me realize a few things my own daughter-dad relationship. And I'm not sure if that good or bad.
I almost cried with the first story, but laughed SO hard with the second one, let's see what happens on the 3rd
Edit: I love the kitten and love to that man ❤
I wasn't expecting to be bawling before work but here we are.
First off i adore your green flag vids. I hope you never stop making them and double the amount if you can, big please and thank you. The world needs more wholesome content. I never new it was possible to wholesomely roast people until i found your channel... and i LOVE it! 🥰🥰🥰🥰 You are awesome my guy and NEED more subs and views! So much virtual hugs! 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗❤
Second, the first story got me in the feels. Glad that girl has a good parent now and hope they are both happy and good things come their way.
Third... i actually had to pause the vid to lmao for a few minutes during the "bean blasting" story. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 i honestly dont think the guy was doing anything wrong, but yeah he shoulda asked. Seriously though, if i saw my man drying his nuts with my blow dryer WHILE humming the halo theme song, i wouldnt be mad.. i would die on the floor laughing!!! Cause honestly, i just find stuff like that more funny then anything else. I'd also let him use it in that way it helped him feel more dry and clean. So long as he wasnt being nasty with it, why not? I'd probably start using it the same way, tbh, being damp and then putting cloths on is a nightmare... so i 👍🏼👍🏼👏🏼👏🏼 to dude for finding a quicker solution to getting dry and getting your money's worth on a an expensive everything dryer. 😂❤
Lastly, third story got my feels too. 😢❤ glad he's doing better now! Wishing man's all the good things, hope your life gets even better!
Love seeing you run around with the flags!
I am so glad people came together and uplifted that sweet man at the end. ❤
"MY BROTHER IN ARMS"
Dying
I love videos like this- usually all I see is stuff about how horrible people can be. It’s literally so refreshing to hear good stories for once 😭
For me, as long as my $400 hair dryer isn't going *directly* on his nuts, I wouldn't care. The point of a blow dryer is to *dry things* lol
As someone who was neglected as a child, it was not until my mid 20s that my mother and I were able to be on cordial terms and even occasionally have movie nights. I still hold her accountable when she says I did not deserve better than what I had. I am so happy this little girl at least had her bio father. Usually neglected kids have no parents to turn to for help.
I told you I'd be watching. ♡
Also I spent way too much money on Sunday on crafts and stuff made by children because they were made by children and I wanted to support their small business. I was also very encouraging and positive. I told every child their work was beautiful and how proud I was of them and they need to keep doing them and doing their beautiful creative works. ♡
One boy I even gave him a high five because he survived COVID and a rare after effect that only affected 100 children and told him I was so happy he was better and doing good. ♡
Story 2 falls under 'secret single behavior'😂. If i walked in on that, i think I'd walk right back out and pretend i went temporarily blind. 😂😂😂
Strutting into fatherhood… absolute legend
First here for the wholesomeness
First one to comment under the first comment
Second to comment under third comment (and second proper comment 😊😊)
THIRD ONE TO COMMENT UNDER THE FIRST COMMENT (here for the wholesomeness)
Omg that freakin barty crouch impression was beautiful
5:00 meanwhile my dad is still searching for milk in the store since 20 years… But fr This dude in the First story is so cute what a great dad
Gotta love a big man with a little kitten.
Dustin, you are an amazing human. Your gut reactions to both the red flag stories and these positive ones prove what a thoroughly decent man you are.
that last video has me crying and blubbering at work 😭
“I can get my medication.” Tears
I went and followed Uglymoo and he's now at 271k and it's great to see him doing well and being able to provide for himself but joy for others!!!
That's great! I would too but I don't have twitch. I'm glad he's doing well!
This is by far my fav channel on YT! I cry.. I laugh...I love this channel.
It's so good to see some wholesome stories! Subscribed!
i love your videos especially the wholesome ones
1 story: I feel like giving both father and daughter a big bear hug.
2nd story: If I had a man and I had gone into that, I would have laughed at him and teased him afterwards.
3 story: I so want to give him a big bear hug and kiss his cute cat.
Ugh when the teenager in the first story said she feels sad seeing other girls having fun with their mum, it got me. I had to confront this when I saw the great relationship my partner had with his mum and come to terms with the fact I will never have that with mine. I at least get to have that relationship with my own kids now, they will never know how it feels to feel like your parents don't love you.
Your videos make me happy!
Thanks for making them!❤
How dare you make me cry on this fine Thursday?
Please keep doing it.
I love your stuff on Tik Tok and I’ve been seeing you speak about being on YT. I watched a few videos a while back and then I came to check it out today and your channel is growing QUICKLY! I’m so excited for you and I love getting to watch people on their journey to success! Keep being awesome!
I subscribe to a few channels that read the juiciest Reddit stories, and they sometimes make me laugh because terrible things happen to terrible people. But these make me feel all warm and fuzzy! Which I need! Subscribed! 😊
That first story was so sweet
Also me telling my husband "I love Dustin. I want him to be my bestfriend." 😂😂😂😂
Best Reddit reader on TH-cam. You actually put effort into it!
This is the content I needed today. Thank you. 😊
Thank you Dustin! You find the stories that we all need ❤ Keep it up, my friend. You are loved ❤
Maybe I'm hallucinating, but I swear I heard the dyson story before, and there was an update that his wife tried it on her nether regions and loved it, so now they both use it however they please. Maybe my brain made it up, but I like that ending. 😆
“And just handed you a mysterious youth” 🤣
First and last one is so sweet, I'm so glad that op in the first story helped his daughter. Its so sweet hearing how patient he was, and the last one. I would love to watch that mans stream, so glad hes finally getting the attention he deserves.
Though the second story, its still her stuff and he should've discussed about it with her first or they could've bought another hair direr if she is uncomfortable with him using her to dry that area. And problem solve, I do hope that the two are able to workout it out in the end
Its nice to use a hair dryer that way after a shower, especially after a long days work in the snow
The first story has more updates.
Apparently, the daughter got Leukemia, but according to commenters, childhood Leukemia is more survivable than ever so it’s likely that she’ll live.
The way my heart sank omg. I really hope she pulls through. Why, why does she have to go through that? Didn’t she suffer enough? 😢 At least she has a great dad to support her.
This first story had me crying and the second one laughing. I can picture a guy doing this and it's just funny. I would not be mad if my bf did this, I'd laugh so hard I'd probably electrocute us both with my watering eyes. The last man seems so sweet and sad. He's so gentle with his tiger baby❤
Bro if that was my husband with the hair dryer Id be cracking tf up and would happily let him use it. Maybe Id even help him lol. If it was my brother or something that'd be different lol
You are hilarious and easily one of my favorite youtuber!!!
