There's absolutely nothing complicated about the boyfriend's penis story. He went along with it, explained in private why it makes him uncomfortable, explained the history about it and asked her not to make the joke again. Respect other peoples boundaries. He is not blowing it out of proportion and if anything, the OP was not taking her boyfriend seriously.
Yeah them saying it was so complicated was kinda weird and I think Angela kinda felt it too. It's not complicated. The OP was an asshole. There's not really an angle where she isn't
Yup. I honestly think the whole thing was a No Assholes Here situation (like she was mildly an AH for mocking his penis in front of all his friends to begin with, but not a huge deal) until the point where she decides to post on Reddit about it and tack on that "is he overreacting? shouldn't he just take a joke??" like damn, all he did was express to her in private that it made him feel insecure because he doesn't enjoy being teased about it (who tf enjoys having your entire group of friends laughing at how small your dick is?!?) and expressed that he doesn't want her to do that anymore. People are allowed to have boundaries about their partner making fun of them to other people. If it makes them uncomfortable/insecure then you should just respect that. It's not an "overreaction" to not want your gf to make you the butt of the joke to the entire friend group, over something that is a touchy subject for you. Some people are OK with that, but lots of people aren't. He expressed it in a very reasonable and healthy way, he wasn't mad at her, they talked it out, that should be the end of the story. Why tf did she have to turn around and be like "OK BUT IS HE ACTUALLY AN ASSHOLE THO"
THISS. I was literally shouting to the screen. It's NOT complicated, she was being an asshole for the fact that she's even thinking he is blowing it out of proportion. Just because you don't understand the insecurity he feels, doesn't mean he's being dramatic what the hell...
@@lunchbox3124 when people say complicated they usually mean there's a whole lot of conversation within that conversation to go over so everyone's on the same page everytime it's on topic but time and social eloquency makes it hard to distill it into a quick brief. Think of it like a long sigh when you know there's more to say but you're or your energy is simply not capable of navigating at that moment.
Never insult your partner (especially publicly) to others because it is as much a reflection of you as it is them. If it's minor everyday things not if they're seriously abusive like physically. I don't understand people complaining about their spouse or insulting their spouse online or in public because WHY are you complaining? YOU picked them... what does that say about you? It really confuses me when comedians do it. Telling funny stories about your partner is fine but when people actively complain and insult their partner their partener isn't the problem
Honestly I think it’s pretty clear the gf was the AH. You don’t joke abt your partner’s physical attributes (esp. Something as personal as genitals) in front of others if you are not 1000% sure they’re ok with it. Yeah you might joke about it as couples, but that’s not a ticket to make it a punchline with other people he admires. That could have been SO awkward, and while everyone played it off in good fun, clearly boyfriend wasn’t comfortable with that. She is the AH bc she didn’t clear that with him first, it’s not “complicated”, and I can’t believe him expressing his feelings could be seen as “blowing it out of proportion”.
My big thing with the sandwich story is like, after an hour.... the bread is soggy, the lettuce wilted, the meat is cold, no one else was going to have any of that after an hour.
The way they didn't say anything and then exploded at him makes me feel like they were waiting for a reason to bully him. They completely overreacted and calling someone a pig for eating food is just so vile. He even tried to apologize and buy a new sandwich and she kept being an asshole. I feel so bad for the guy.
What gets to me is that none of his friends said anything, all the complaining and name calling was done by one person who roped her friends into siding with her. It seems like nobody else cared about it.
@@s-s00Except it's clear the amount of food wasn't properly calculated, as they had no problem eating all of OPs wings without him getting one. And if this food was supposed to be reserved for someone specific, it probably should've been moved to the side or even the fridge by the host, especially if it's his girlfriend. OP literally brought his own food and was still hungry. This party didn't have enough food or snacks.
@sashathebee I see your point, but the op offered to buy more food and was turned down pretty harshly. At that point I think the person was more into trying to humiliate the op (called him a pig in FRONT of everyone) than focused about the food. And hey, shit happens. If there's not a lot of food left and people are hungry, get more fucking food? And if you have an issue with the money, tell the people you didn't expect to run out of food as quickly and if they could pitch in a bit?
"We call it Bruce Banner cause IT TURNS INTO THE HULK." can we all take a moment to recognize Shayne's comic genius for coming up with that on the spot? There's a LEGEND too.
Waited longer than they even mentioned if you really listened he waited an hour before he was hungry then waited ANOTHER hour and a half. Until he grabbed the first half. Now only waiting another 10-15 after that to wipe out the rest after you just ate a foot and a half may have been a bit much
yup he waited for a hour after the party started then waited another hour and half so the party has been going on for 2 and a half hours then 2:45 in he eats the rest then they freak out like the party has been going on for almost 3 hours like yes he should of announced anyone want more cause I’m gonna eat it and the fact they bullied him even worse after he offered to buy mor food is literally crazy but yeah he waited a long time
He’s still an AH. He had already eaten a portion of the sandwich so he likely ate 2/3 of it. As someone who has a huge appetite, if you know you’re going to eat out of proportion to the other guests you bring extra food for yourself.
think they’re made becaUe parties don’t end that early and he pretty much ended the party within the shortest amount of time possible, the fight hadn’t even ended. People are going to want to eat while they stand around after talking about the fight
Poor Allan, they were waiting for him to do something like this to have this reaction, especially the girlfriend. I bet they always complain about him behind his back. They didn't let him buy more food, because they weren't really hungry, they just wanted to get their feelings out.
i watched this with my bf and that was the first thing i said. the way they let him make a "problem" out of himself while they just watched and pig rolled off of the gfs tongue so easily. like i could NEVER call someone that, especially when i basically set a trap for them. poor allan i hope he finds better friends.
They are blatantly fatphobic. The girlfriend’s comments are out of bounds. He wasn’t even inconsiderate! He was going to buy more food, and if she wants a sandwich from her friends shop she can go tomorrow. It’s not like it’s the only food she can eat in that moment.
I agree. I also think this type of drama is "Cinderella drama," meaning once midnight hits, the day is over... let it go. What good is done to keep it going, in this case? I situation is over, learn what lessons are there to learn and move on.
I feel for Allan cause my family has raised me in a way that you shouldn't eat before you go out plus I get hungry fast asf so I can relate waiting an hour or more just to eat. Those people are just bullies and really mean
About the twin story: Triplets are most often a set of identical twins and a fraternal triplet, so it is absolutely reasonable that one of them would not share all of the same traits. ADDITIONALLY, skin color is not a simple punnett square situation in the way something like eye color might be. Somewhere upwards of 300 different genetic expressions contribute to melanin production and skin color. Skin color can also change and develop until a child is around two. The range for phenotype variability when it comes to skin color, especially in biracial children, is very significant.
Thank you!! Finally someone who knows how things are! The punnet square isn't accurate to eye colors anymore either. I think there is like 20-ish different genes that can determine eye color. It was something like the BB, Bb, bb still works, but you can have a person with BB (brown) that has blue or green eyes, same with the other two. The percentage is low, but it happens.
@@lina9535 Yeah, for example both the OCA2 and HERC2 genes contain recessive alleles that can cause blue eyes. So if two blue eyed people with blue eyes due to the same gene have kids together, all the kids will be blue eyed, but if someone with HERC2 related blue eyes and someone with OCA2 related blue eyes get together, and neither of them carry an allele for blue eyes in the other gene, they will actually have 100% brown-eyed kids. However, most blue eyed people of European ancestry are all descended from the same person who had a HERC2 mutation, so that's why we thought it was a single gene trait for so long.
That's funny, I never knew that was how it was usually because the only triplets I've ever known IRL are a set of them I went to high school with. Three blonde dudes, but they were all radically different heights. Like the shortest was 5'1" maybe and the tallest was well over 6 feet and on the basketball team. And then the third was average height
@@DavidSSabb that probably means that they were identical, but while in the uterus they were basically scrapping for nutrients, so the height aspect wasn’t fairly distributed, thats usually why you see identical twins but one of them is notably bigger than then other
The “my winky fell off” is hilarious. I love that so much and that’s just a sibling thing. I’ve heard and experienced way worse than that as well with siblings.
I had to stop and question myself for a minute because I have two brothers, who were toddlers, when I was 13 and I vividly remember having a very similar conversation with them when they barged in on me in the bathroom. I remember that it wasn’t mee, but oh man, I’m so glad other people had the same experience as an eldest sister.
With the stache, Shayne is looking more and more like a dad. Only thing missing are some readers resting at the edge of his nose and some throat clearing.
Okay right?? It feels like she doesn’t like him or is projecting her own issues with food/weight on him. Pointing out that they saw him eating it but then also asking the group “where did the sandwich go?” is way over dramatic
@JalapenoBizniz like she waited for him to finish the remaining 3 inches of sandwich and then proceeded to make a scene. I felt bad for Allan. Apparently, all the reddit people were saying he's the asshole for it. For example, if the food was the problem, then go fcking buy another set of it. He even offered yet they all want him to feel shitty about himself
Asking "Where did the sandwich go?" AS IF YOU DIDNT BUY IT TO BE EATEN. And not only did he wait over an hour to get seconds, but he still left some for people to get and waited ANOTHER HOUR to eat the rest of it. Honestly if you have an event where food is served, it's etiquette for everyone to get one serving of everything, but after that it's fair game. The fatphobia in this story is just so apparent and disgusting
seeing how passionate angela and chanse are about hosting/feeding people is really something. they're truly people who embody the idea of keeping the hearth warm. i love to see it
@@Monster_sky_high If they really wanted to help him stop eating so much they could have told him that his eating habits are concerning them or sent him resources to help him eat healthier. Instead they called him a pig and refused to talk to him again. Insults don't help anyone. All they did was make him feel bad.
i swear to god the woman who made fun of allan calling him a pig makes me so angry. that is just plain cruel. I’m with chanse, food is there to be eaten. plain and simple.
Exactly! ALSO, if the sandwich would’ve sat out much longer it would’ve gone bad & probably made someone sick. I’m happy that he ate it when he did for multiple reasons.
@@Ash-Ketchum702 Seriously though. Especially if it's not fast food like subway. They said it was made by a local store so they probably didn't use preservative rich foods so that sandwich definitely probably wouldn't have lasted much longer.
The only issue with it is the fact he didn't ask, but even then I feel like he did everything right after. Like I totally get it, I can't eat that much food but I can easily down one of those Walmart 2ft long subs. I usually only get 6 inches because they're always for groups. If there's extra I just ask if everyone who wants some got some, ask how much they've had, and help dish it out or whatever before I finish the rest. If I didn't ask or do any of that I feel like the perfect response is to pay for how much I ate, get food, basically what he offered.
One of the things that really is commendable about the Boyfriend in the “making fun of my bf’s penis” story is that he very easily could’ve been the asshole if he went off on his girlfriend at the party itself. He waited until they were private and didn’t embarrass her in public, sorry gf that wasn’t him overreacting. That was proper boundary setting and communication skills.
Would he be the sole asshole tho? I think it'd be ESH at best. She's body shaming him in front of his friends. I was just thinking about that one reddit story they read a while back about the boyfriend who kept telling the gf that she needs a shower as a way to neg her to keep her to stay with him, and while the last part is probably not the case in this story, it doesn't feel totally dissimilar. She's regularly playing with his insecurity, and in this story she brings it up in an inappropriate context in front of his friends.
@@aveaoz honestly, even if he did erupt in public and broke up with her, I still wouldn't call him an asshole. She picked at a known insecurity in public. Only the person in the body can make the joke about the body.
imo, she wasn't an asshole until she went 'is he overreacting?' Like you said, he used proper communication to say it when they were in private, even saying that he would never do that so that she could maybe understand better, but then she goes on reddit to ask if she was somehow justified in making fun of him.
as someone who’s birthday is almost always on thanksgiving, i feel for the COD guy a little bit. It’s hard bc he is a dad so it’s like, dude, sacrifice. But also, everyone deserves to celebrate their birthday.
Yeah. I feel like that might be one of the more complicated stories on here. As long as it's not an unreliable narrator situation, there's a lot of possible factors. On the one hand, having kids is (usually) a conscious choice, and so you have to expect to lose a lot of your free time to them, especially when they're that young. On the other hand, I feel like people are over-valuing the importance of Christmas being celebrated on the exact right day. If Christmas was really the first time in 3 years that all his old friends were going to be online together, I don't see the harm in possibly celebrating Christmas on Christmas Eve or the 26th, as it's probably going to be another number of months or years before those friends are all together again. And speaking as someone who most strongly connects and opens up to people while playing games with them (digital, tabletop, or otherwise), playing together with people can be something a lot more than just trying to rack up ranks for a few hours. Overall, I think the whole issue could be avoided by just having an open and honest conversation a week or so ahead of time to figure out the best way for everyone to be happy.
Also they keep saying how he could have shifted it but he literally stated that he couldn’t because all of his friends chose this day and time to play and couldn’t reschedule but ig they missed that?
@daishagreene1782 They did from the sound of it also they probably chose this day because it's his birthday kinda sounds like they planed it out a bit ago
@@DefectiveDictionary777I agree, it’s super complicated if he’s a reliable narrator. If that’s the case maybe he could play while the kids nap, because they were still small enough where they’d take at least one.
i was hoping to see someone defend him lol. my birthday is december 22 and growing up, i spent so many birthdays with little to no friends because everyone was busy or traveling for christmas. the day itself IS kind of a big deal to me (the same way getting separate bday and christmas gifts is a silly thing i care about) and if i wasn't allowed to spend a couple hours with my friends, kids or not, i would be pretty upset. there's plenty of hours in the day and i'm assuming the kids go to bed early, so what's the big deal if he plays COD with the boys in the evening lol it's not like they opened presents and he immediately put on a headset
With the sandwich guy, he gets a pass because not only did he wait, he mentioned how in that hour people still got up and got OTHER food, and skipped over the sandwich. Meaning they just didnt want it but wanted the other food and were still eating
The sandwich story is easily the worst one for me. There are so many signs that everyone created an opening to trash on OP and his eating problem. They ate all yhe wings without even thinking of leaving any for him. They knew the sandwich was out and anyone with a brain knows that sandwiches wont be as good after an hour of being left out, but even then no one stopped him from eating it and let him do it. Then when he offered to get more food, they insult him and say its not good enough
@@lindsgleason I don't even think its an intervention. It sounds like a group of people who keep him around so they can insult and shit on him to make themselves feel better whenever they want. Its either that, OR Alan's family is really on his case about his eating problem, and it sounds like the girlfriend from the party, who called him a pig, is besties with Alan's sister. Maybe Alan's sister has been complaining to her friend about Alan and the sister and her friend are just using this situation to try and shame him into correcting his eating issues. He doesn't mention the rest of the friend group... so they aren't necessarily shitting on him, but it sounds like they also didn't defend him, so they really don't sound like great friends either way.
On the art resale thing: notice how OP didn’t actually tell their artist friend how they made triple what they paid, they told a friend who then told the artist. If OP was actually out to teach their friend a lesson like they claimed, wouldn’t OP be the one to say “see? Your art is worth way more” rather than hiding it?
Yeah if they actually wanted to help they’d have given the artist the money and perhaps connected them to the place for the opportunity to continue selling there themselves
I don't think OP was trying to hide it. If that was the case then why would OP tell their in common friends about ti knowing it would get back to the friend?
@@tsgrandma9837Hiding isn't the right word, but they certainly can't claim it was meant to be educational when that didn't make an effort to explain it to the artist.
@@saiboogubut they did make an effort. They told them from the jump that they should charge more for their art. I have no clue how this was such a cut and dry case for everyone to call OP the asshole. Why the hell would the artist be entitled to ANY money after they sold their print to someone who outright told them they should be charging more for it?? I cannot imagine having the nerve to demand money from a friend for something they already paid me for. That’s crazy entitled behavior that I feel like gets completely overlooked here. Also, it’s PRINTS of their work, not originals. I feel like Shayne Chanse and Angela all missed that part, because they made it seem like this big emotional thing for OP to even sell it in the first place rather than keep it because they “made it with their own hands”. No they didn’t, they clearly make a bunch of copies to sell of all their originals.
The first story hits so close to home to me, me and my siblings are all different skin shades and have different eye colors, hair colors but were undoubtedly 100% siblings My poor mother was constantly accused by neighbors and teachers that she cheated on my father. It was so frustrating and alienating as a child to have your familys existence constantly scrutinized and invalidated.
That is so incredibly rude and insulting! The fact that people don't understand that genetics goes farther back than the parents is crazy. There are 23 chromosomal pairs in the human genome; skin color, eye color, hair color and texture, height and build, etc are also determined by more than just one pair each. Plus, just because a certain trait is dominant it doesn't mean that the child can't receive a recessive trait. Less likely, sure, but not impossible. Like Chanse's hazel eyes. The more diverse that the parents' backgrounds are the more options are possible for the children. It could even be as far back or farther than a great grandparent of a different ethnicity or skin tone. It's so shitty that people thought that a) it was something your mother would do, b) thought it was something to think or discuss, and c) something they felt was appropriate in the slightest to say to her or you guys. Sometimes the stupid and hurtful things that come out of some people's mouths astound me.
For Angela’s… analogy: If you have a pool and your friend, who doesn’t have a pool, says they don’t think they can swim. If you, with a pool, say, “I can and you can too.” You then prove your point by kidnapping them and throwing them into your pool. They, in fact, can swim. Yes, you were correct, but how you proved your point without acknowledging both your relationship and the difference in your resources is what puts you in the wrong. You can be correct, while still being in the wrong. I was in fact picking up what she was putting down
Was thinking more of it being like, you have a floaty, lets go swimming in my pool. But then I buy the floaty, I go swimming, but I won’t let you swim in my pool.
It breaks my heart that people were calling the pizza mom an asshole. I was blessed with parents that were silly people and would cut jokes with me or my friends or do funny things. To be honest, it was only cringe in the moment and then we'd forget it by the next day. But when my parents passed away, those moments were what my friends told me they thought were the coolest. Those moments were what my friends loved about my parents, and something I loved too.
I'm so with you. My relationship with my parents is very different from yours, but even when my mom made cringey jokes, it was never that big of a deal. Calling her an asshole for being goofy is too much, it's a parent's job to be cringe; it's proof they're paying attention in their weird, out-of-touch way.
My relationship with my parents was toxic as hell when I was a teen. I would give a leg to have these kinds of memories with them. Because now even at 26, the strain is still there.
I recon the people who said she was the ahole are still teenagers themselves, when you are a teenager embarrassment sounds like the worst thing in the world but actually no one will remember that and she’ll find it funny
being a teenager is hard and feeling embarrassed is hard. i think things like that are fine in private and in front of family, but most teenagers do not want their friends and family to mingle like that. friendships are fickle in teen years. that's when you're really discovering who you are and who you want around you, and anything that feels even slightly like rejection can sting. as a parent, you can still make happy memories with your kids without stepping on their 'turf' so to speak.
I really loved every point Angela made with the sandwich story. Eating with people and feeding yourself is very personal and can be difficult. As someone with severe food anxiety, I appreciated it a lot.
Got subtly shamed about my weight and how much I eat/what I liked to eat growing up, I’m still trying to have a normal relationship with food and not like... hide food in my bedroom as someone with my own space to safely eat, not eat defensively bc I was used to people taking food away.
44:22 I don’t have a penis, but I disagree with the smosh men here; it’s *not* complicated at all. He was hurt. His feelings are valid. If it’s something he’s been insecure about, it’s ok to feel bad about it. He wasn’t mad, he was just honest about it hurting him a bit. Not complicated at all, it hurt him, he wasn’t blowing it out of proportion. It was a mistake, but saying he blew it out of proportion was the real asshole move. It’s good that he lets her know that it felt bad, and he wasn’t even mad. She did something wrong. It’s not relationship ending, but she was wrong. Especially for saying he overreacted. She should not do that again, and maybe find a way to set the record straight in a way that seems natural and not forced, like subtly bring up in another game or something that it *is* a grower. And maybe show a tiny bit of empathy. We as women won’t understand what it’s like exactly, but we all have things like that we’re insecure about, so act in a way you wish someone would act about your insecurity. Edit; I’m on strong painkillers, so I know the comment is a bit all over the place, and I forgot some words so I didn’t get it across how I wanted, but I think most people can understand -ish what I mean
Absolutely. I was kind of saying the same thing with that one. It's not that complicated, because she shouldn't have made the joke in company (he's apparently fine with it in private), and definitely shouldn't have doubled down by saying he's overreacting. Since body image issues are pretty ubiquitous, she should have known that joking about a source of her partner's insecurity would not go well.
It doesn't even matter what it's about, when your partner tells you "I don't like when people joke about this thing I'm insecure about" and then you joke about that thing they are insecure about you're an ass for it. It's as straightforward as it gets.
Thank you! I felt like I was going crazy when they were saying it’s complicated. No it’s not! I would never make a joke about someone’s body in a group of people much less my partners body who I love and care for. It’s completely uncalled for and I imagine was pretty humiliating for him. I don’t think it’s a relationship ender necessarily but it was in very bad taste and she needs to really try to make it up to him
The story about Alan always upsets me. His "friends" are the assholes in that story. I feel so bad for him. Up front he made a point of saying he thought he had a problem, meaning his eating habits and weight are already weighing him down and making him upset. Then to turn around and have people you thought cared about you stomp on you while you're already feeling low, over food no less, is insane to me. You should NEVER be denied food, you should never be punished for eating or have food used as a punishment/weapon against you, and to feel like you are compelled to "make this up to them" by buying more food is insane after they neglected to eat it for it that long. I really hope Alan has a better support system now.
yeah and like even if he was the asshole in the situation, it’s the friends’ responsibility to just casually communicate to him to not do something like it next time. that’s all they had to do, but they chose to rub it in his face and treat it like a crime. and he even offered to buy another sandwich and apologized, that’s such a good way to handle it
to shame anyone about food/eating is so weird! Especially when he made a point to say he was hungry, his body was telling him it needed food and then he was punished for that. Awful! I'm just glad Angela/Chanse/commenters are as incensed as I was lol
@@leelee353 I've always had the mindset "Eat your fill, as long as everyone gets at least 1 serving." The fact that he offered to buy more food but they didn't want to accept it because it wasn't from a 'local shop' seems like a jab as well.
i felt bad for him at first but the more you dive into the actual post, he very much seems like the a-hole. All in all, everyone is an a-hole in this story. I recommend reading through the actual reddit post. Someone there says "Letting it sit for an hour doesn't mean anything. Others might have just been waiting to grab it after the fight (you said in a comment you polished it off during the fight) The wings prove the point. You were bummed that others ate all the wings and you didn't get a chance to have any - just like the people complaining about the sandwich they brought".
Angela really showed her theater kid side like “I need to do this as a monologue” and “I should have done some scene work before the performance”. I love her so much she’s amazing
I love how the entire scene was read to her, she heard the monologue, volunteered than complained about it making no sense and not understanding the context. That’s the kind of confidence to believe in 9/11/11 conspiracies.
About the art story: if I’m buying art from a cafe I would be fully expecting to be purchasing directly from the artist. I would feel extremely cheated if I knew my money went to some dealer than the artist directly
That shouldn't be relevant. The coffee shop made a purchase and it's their property. Now they can sell to whoever they like for whatever price they choose. This is usually how cafe wall art works. It's not like the artist just hangs the prints in a shop and the shop doesn't get their back scratched.
@@emporioalnino4670she doesn't do it anymore because she got involved in other ventures, but there was one lady who sold her art through a bar that I go to open mics at. She made all of the profit from it, and would host painting sessions there to help them make some money as well. Not exactly the same as what you're saying doesn't happen, but just saying these situations work best when the artist and the venue can work together to mutually benefit each other. Also, didn't OP buy the paintings herself, and then ask to display them? I don't think the coffee shop necessarily bought the pieces themselves
It really doesn’t matter. She bought them and they were hers now. She can resell them if she wants. As long as she’s not selling it as if it she was the artist or anything like that it doesn’t matter
I also don't agree. OP told her upfront that the price was to low. If she paid the normal price (and not a discounted price because she was a friend) than she should do with it wat she wants. She took a risk on that she was right. The only part she might be the Ahole for, is that she did not tell her friend directly after. She only called it a lessonfee when she found out.
The people saying the pizza mom was trying to "be her kid's friend, stop trying to be a hip mom" are taking it WAY too seriously. That woman was fully aware it was NOT hip lol, that was the whole point. She's just being silly.
Like, I WISH my mom would've been like this as a teen. Sure, I might've cringed in the moment, but now as an adult I could look back at those memories and think about how much my mom cared that she tried to give me and my friends something to laugh about.
I think it depends on how the mom is behind closed doors, I have friends who’s parents seem really funny/friendly when we come over but that seem to be total assholes when they’re alone.
For story one: my dad is the product of a dutch woman and a very dark Indonesian man and he came out whiter than the spirit of christmas. Skin tones can be super varied.
i mean, drake had to use 3 DNA tests on his kid because he looks so different to him and his wife. Op in this story has just been watching too many dramas.
Idk why people forget that parents genes came from grandparents, cousins, aunt's and siblings too lol. Also mixing of ancestors which introduce new genes into the pool.
The story with the ball covered in poo had me crying cause I was laughing at the story less at the actual story itself and more of the cast's utter disbelief as they come to terms with what they just heard🤣. Especially the "shayne" as they both look away for me has me dying🤣🤣
This! And not even behind his back! That girl called him a pig TO HIS FACE and the other "friends" backed her up? That story is another one that sounds like a waking nightmare for the OP, but the way he told it made it obvious this is normal for him. I hope Alan has a much more empathetic group around him now
@@no1legobatmanfan As someone who was the token fat guy in groups before, the moment he said, "I'm the token fat guy in the group," I knew right there, they're not his friends.
28:56 I get you Angela. It’s like if you liked swimming and had a friend with a pool that said, “well why don’t you go swimming every day?” And you told them, “it’s not that easy,” and to prove you wrong they went swimming in their pool every day.
That assumes your friend didn’t offer you access to their pool. We don’t have that detail or not. There’s missing information about the “pool” (the cafe)

@@day9811im guessing what angela and this commenter meant is, if your friend with a pool is saying “oh, go swimming everyday if you like it” and you dont have a pool, so you explain that its hard for you to swim everyday, and then they try and prove it to you (that you can) by swimming in their pool everyday, they are speaking & proving their point from a privileged position. they have a pool, of course its easy for them to swim everyday. just like in the story, its easy for the asshole to sell the art because they work and have access to an art gallery, so of course its easy for them to sell the art higher, they already have ties to something the artist doesnt have.
I just want to talk about part of someone's comment about Allan's food. They ate all of his food quickly and didn't leave a single wing for him, and he was gracious about it. He actually waited an hour and a half, cause he said he waited an hour and then another half hour, and then ate it, and offered to get more when they were extremely rude, even though they had other food. That just seems so messed up to me
It really reads like they were just waiting for him to slip up in any way to bully him, seems to me they are Allan's twin sister friends and not his sadly.
yeah, the absolute lack of empathy for the guy is insane to me the understanding when I hang out with other people is that if there is food on the table, it's up for grabs for anyone regardless of portion. I couldn't imagine food sitting on the table for over an hour
Yeah, my general impression of the situation was that they had a "stereotypically mainstream American" party, with more drinks than food. Allan would be right at home at a Filipino party, where it's an unspoken obligation to have too much food, up to the point where not only everyone has had their fill 2x over, they have to bring a couple boxes home to take home for their families or leftovers for the next couple of days (at least). If any Filipino party were stingy (and people would gossip incessantly about it), word would get around so quickly that any family in their right mind would note to avoid that family for their next party...
literally an hour and a half is plenty of time to wait for another portion, i’ve never been to watch party where the food lasted more than an hour or 2. They honestly should’ve had more food if they knew they had a guy with a massive appetite coming
@@NeODeLeuXI second this opinion, it just seemed like at least one person was waiting for an opportunity to talk down to him. He was beyond nice about everything and tried to remedy the situation the best he could, but it didn’t sound like they cared and just wanted to further his mental turmoil
I honestly didn't think she's the AH. She probably is to her daughter but I personally would rather have a mom like that than my own narcissistic mom. She's able to make fun of herself and be silly around people. That's healthy. And seems like someone I could go to with my problems
Yeah I read through the comments over there and it is *WILD*. Like I know a place that's entirely dedicated to judging whether or not people are assholes is going to draw a very... particular crowd of regulars, but damn. They're acting like a singular moment of silliness means that she can never be a parent to her daughter.
my mom was like this and while it was embarrassing, all my friends always talked ab how much they loved my mom and how legendary she was. And seeing some of THEIR households? I'd take my fun embarrassing mom over a strict one who didn't care about cheering me up ANY DAY.
For the last story I imagine that she had this endless scream of shock going on in her head, mom texts her “what’s up?” And she just lets it out the only way she can that moment. Her wording didn’t seem like she was taking out anger on the mother more like “THE WORLD HAS ENDED?? Do you know what it’s like when the world has ended?!? You raised a sociopathic son that just ENDED EVERYHING”
Story 1: I had someone very seriously say to me “what if one identical twin is mine and the other isn’t” and I just stared at him bc he had the IQ of a hotdog.
A girl in my HS bio class asked my twin sister and I if our mom carried us for 18 months because there are two of us. All I could do was stare at her incredulously and say "no. no she did not."
The story about the guy eating the sandwich kinda hit me hard lol. I've struggled with body image issues for a long time and can't even begin to imagine how I'd react emotionally if someone said those things to me. On one hand, he probably should've asked if he could eat the remaining pieces but, on the other hand, the way they blew up in his face about it kind of broke my heart. He even acknowledged it himself at the beginning of the story saying that he's "the token fat guy". It just feels like the girl who blew up on him had an intrinsic sense of that and took that as an opportunity to (consciously or unconsciously) berate him and demean him. it just hurts to hear about something like that with little to no regard for any other factors that might have led him to do that.
I hope Alan found better friends. He was already embarrassed in front of all of them, there was no need for the group to msg him the next day further berating him.
He sounded so nice. And ffs, if you want food GRAB IT, it's a buffet style thing, you can't be mad after food sat there for an hour and someone eventually ate it
I feel like you guys don't know a person like this. It's so annoying when they eat more of the food that they should. If we are 5 people and there are like 20 pastries than you eat 4 pastries. No more. You HAVEA TO ASK if you wanna eat more. It's just being polite ya know. Like i don't think the guy is a massive asshole but come on man learn some manners
@@Vi_Vi_1 As an experienced overnighter, I know the treats will eventually run out, so you gotta make the call for them. "Hey, let me have that last chocolate candy I haven't had them yet" Rather than not eating and then starting to call my friends pigs when they ate my favs.
I've heard this story several times, and I think I finally put my finger on why his friends clearly seem like the asshole to me here. There is one thing that you could maaaybe reasonably criticize Alan for, which is being inconsiderate of the fact that other people might want the food. You could also argue he was considerate by bringing food for everyone and also waiting for an hour before getting more, but there's at least some merit to the idea that eating more than your "fair share" is inconsiderate. But once Alan instantly acknowledges that he messed up, apologizes profusely, and offers to go get food to replace the food he ate, he's clearly shown that he regrets his possible lack of consideration and is trying to be considerate by doing anything he can to rectify the situation. If you continue to berate him as a pig beyond that without any regard for his feelings, then you're saying the problem wasn't that he was inconsiderate of you; you just don't like his eating habits and his body, and you have decided to make your opinion his problem. At that point, I feel pretty comfortable saying those "friends" are the assholes, and they can fuck off.
The COD one really erks me. As a mom of 2 kids that need constant hands on help i dont feel it trumps my husbands needs. The best thing we have done for our marriage is give EVERYONES needs time. It would be hard on christmas, but its his birthday and the fact is its importsnt to HIM. Then discuss the whole day, when and where everyone is, what the wife needs him to do before he starts playing, and the expectation if the wife needs his help. If you truly respect each others and the needs of each other, you will make room at the table. This is true before this actual incident! If he respects her needs before, she would be more likely to not put her foot down. If he saw her needs and made time for her to have alone time, she may have been way more supportive. If she saw his needs for connection and the load that dads carry, she can meet him half way. I may get some heat for this but i will die on the hill of respect each others needs in a marriage. I too often see one or the other being neglected in the name of "well my needs arent being met".
100% the truth. I've been married over 23 years. A good marriage and a happy family are the result of communication *and* supporting each other. This requires giving each other alone time and encouraging them to spend time with their friends. He can be there on Christmas Eve and Christmas morning, then she can watch the kids while he celebrates his birthday with his friends. No one needs to abandon their family in order to play a video game for a few hours. What if her birthday was January 1st and she wanted a spa day with her lady friends? She could be with the family on New Year's Eve, and he could babysit while she spends time with her friends. Right? People would flip if her husband said "No, you can't arrange to spend time with your friends. I need you at home just in case I need to take the trash out." Yet the arguments given here were equally as ridiculous. What if she needs his help cleaning up the wrapping paper or chopping onions? Are you kidding? He can still do these things! Or better yet, clean up tomorrow, and keep the meal simple.
Literally. It’s always, and especially in this from Shayne, family over yourself. Which is fine but self negligence is a complete self destruction. Self care is just as important as family care.
Poor Allan, he offered to buy more food, but they didn't care about the food. He indeed should have communicated about it but FOOD IS THERE TO BE EATEN!!!!!! They knew he eaten the food. Poor guy 😞
Agreed. I don't think Allan should have eaten as much as he did without communicating it as a rule of basic social etiquette. There's a chance the hosts were looking forward to having extra for the following day, only to find out the hard way that at least half of it had been eaten by a single person. However, clearly people noticed and also didn't say anything--people that were sniffing out blood and waiting for an opportunity to pounce. Even after his so-called friends berated him and dog piled, he did the right thing: he offered to pay them back for it after it was made clear he wasn't meant to eat as much as he did, they said no, and that was that. I hope he finds better friends who don't put him down. They all just sound like pretty privilege brats who were looking for a reason to jump on the big guy.
"But you can't buy more food, that sandwich was custom made" BUT HE CAN STILL GET MORE FOOD WHAT DOES THAT HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH IT?! that has no baring on him buying pizza to make up for it, it's just an excuse to be mad at him
with the sandwich story, i think it’s obvious from the way they reacted that he was afraid to ask if he could eat more. he probably knew they would shame him for pigging out. being a fat guy, i know how it feels to be self-conscious about how much i eat. i think he needs new friends
Fellow fat guy here. Hard disagree here, enabling his unhealthy behaviour would make them bad friends. He didn’t just eat a little bit extra. He ate an insane amount of food. He’s got a problem.
@@leastselfawarepotassium Fat girl here. Never once has someone commenting on my eating habits made them healthier. They make eating issues worse and more complicated. The world would be a better place if everyone minded their business.
he was afraid to ask for more because he wanted to eat it all. there was three feet of sandwich left and he couldve easily taken like 6 inches when he felt hungry but he waited and waited so that he could eat the whole thing. he took a foot and a half at a time and didnt bother asking if he could finish it because he wanted it for himself
The Christmas story, he said he NEVER celebrates his birthday. Parents who have a birthday on other days ask for peace and quiet. My mom asks for a clean house. There is nothing wrong with him wanting a couple hours to do something he loves he doesn’t get to experience often. In my house we celebrate in little things like a dinner we choose, who we spend it with, things we don’t have to do that usually expected of us. There is nothing wrong or selfish about what he’s asking,
I agree! I think that, though core memories can be made on holidays, core memories can be made on any day. I think that the guy should be able to celebrate his birthday. The family could even have their own Christmas celebration on another day, especially since the kids are so young! Apparently, Jesus was born in June, anyway! I really didn't like hearing that the wife said she wanted to throw his X-Box, or joy!, out of the window! The guy gets to celebrate his birthday and spend time with his friends!
The penis story makes me really upset, I'm a woman but I'm very insecure about my body and if my boyfriend said something like "my girlfriends tits/ass" on that card it'd cause me a lot of distress because, in my eyes, if you're with someone you're not supposed to see any flaws in them physically. Of course I treat my man with the same respect. We would never make fun of eachothers bodies.
Yeah. It's not complicated like they were saying. He expressed vulnerability about that with her and she still made fun of it. Making fun of it privately after that is bad enough to earn the AH status for me and he didn't complain about that (so no need for him to develop a thicker skin). She literally went to a group that she knew already teased him about it and he hated it and did it PUBLICALLY. His response was rational, calm and he waited until he was alone with her. He is being so mature. It isn't weak to express a boundary or express when someone has crossed it. She's so gross for posting this on reddit too. Who does that to someone they claim to love and then posts it for even more notoriety on the internet while saying he overreacted? Disgusting behavior.
Yeah, I used to think it was funny how guys got insecure about penis size, but a few years ago it twigged to me that this is a *real* insecurity for some guys, and it's no different from a woman worrying about saggy boobs or something like that. Body image issues matter even if the topic is something that seems silly to some people.
@@ettinakitten5047 the fact you and other ppl probably treat it so casually and as a joke is the issue. The issue of body shaming has been brought up a lot in recent years and yet women and men think its fine to make fun of dick sizes. For guys it is a serious insecurity, i mean its the pinnacle of manhood, and societally speaking has always been a point of competition or ‘virility’ and a whole host of masculine concerns. And i wouldnt be surprised that a lot of men are likely shamed or mocked, in private, about their size, let alone in public, becuz its not made a taboo at all.
I find it strange that already from the get-go she’s kind of judging his body. I mean seriously she HAD TO bring up that he’s 7 inches and then say ‘its not huge or anything’, i mean come on. So strange, she thinks so lightly of the issue as if its crazy that someone could be insecure about body shaming. No way in hell could he get away with any body shaming about her, but when its his penis, probably the biggest source of physical insecurity to a man, its just some light joke he takes as an overreaction??
The bf in the penis story was super chill - went with the joke at the party, then privately communicated his feelings to his gf when they went home and forgave her. I've read so many aita stories that have partners going off on one another for a joke or an accident so this was a breath of fresh air. I hope the gf makes it up to him.
idk bc it feels similar to me to stories where men have to be taught to have basic empathy for their GFs. why should a woman need to be taught or communicated with that you shouldn’t publicly or privately make fun of their boyfriends body? idk. people shouldnt need to be told to have basic empathy nor respect for their partners.
@@sweetembrace6706 oh to be clear I think the gf was in the wrong. But, something like this hadn't happened before, so they set a clear boundary and was super mature about it
@@jellyhappening1458I think she wasn't the asshole at first because she didn't think it'd hurt him, but going to Reddit to ask if he is blowing it out of proportion definitely makes her the asshole.
@@DJKurohyep. And the comment she made about him possibly just blowing it out of proportion shows that she isn’t sorry about how she acted, she just felt bad for making her boyfriend upset (or more likely just felt bad about being called out on it and apologized)
24:56 the most important thing is that the friend DIDNT KNOW. That requires permission wth Also sales and pricing can be very much affected by how you’re selling it. Pricing of an online print is gonna be different than in a coffee shop gallery.
Bro people were being so harsh towards the mom in the second story :( when I was 16, my mom, non-ironically, told me to have "fat dick spirit" before going to school with a toothy smile on her face, and I laughed my ass off. Moms are people too!
It’s the way if my mom did that I would say yea I will and for the mom in the story I would start twerking too it’s a moment with your mom and heys she being funny it’s a good story to laugh with your friends in the future
Agreed. I understand the daughter for being mortified, but I feel like this is a story she'll laugh at when she's older. If the mom is usually the 'fun, cool mom' then this is normal for their family and I can believe she had good intentions, so NTA, but if she usually doesn't do this then it seems like she was intentionally embarassing her daughter in which case YTA.
Petition for Alan to be invited to every single party in the future and for him to have a friend group who won’t trash him for being polite 🫡🙋🏻♂️ he’s a legend that deserves better 40:56
One time my little brother was playing in the garden and he broke the lawn gnome and I told him they’re gonna come for revenge, I bought 10 garden gnomes, placed one outside his window, three in the backyard and the rest outside his bedroom door, as soon as he saw the lawn gnome peeping through his window all hell broke loose.
it's the fact that Alan even calls himself the "token" friend that really sets the scene for his place in the "friend"group... i would not be surprised if the others think that they are being samaritans for "allowing" him to be a part of the group.... feels so off
Oh my god, Angela and Chanse talking about guests eating at a dinner party needs to get turned into characters. They're like the positive version of the balcony, Muppets Statler & Waldorf.
With Allen eating the sandwich too, one of two things happened when the hostess asked where the sandwich went: either they all watched him eat it and said nothing, then proceeded to angrily mock him for eating it when they could've stopped him earlier, or, everyone was unaware of the sandwich being eaten and when she asked where it went, they IMMEDIATELY assumed he ate the whole thing instead of assuming the rest of the guests ate it. Both of which are messed up because either they watched and waited for him to walk into a trap, or they have this predetermined image in their head of "of course it's Allen that ate the whole thing."
I hope they do at least something similar to what I commented on the reddit stories video from 3 weeks ago 🤞 the guests are cuddled up in their blankets listening to Shayne read spooky stories. 👻
This is pretty textbook treatment of a fat person in today's society. The dude offered to replace it, apologized, felt bad, and tried to talk to them about it and still got shit on. He is very aware of the situation and felt bad. I feel for him. 😔
Yeah even if he was in the wrong, he owned up to it and offered to get more food so I would have called it even at that point. And calling someone a pig is super mean :(
I think they were waiting for a time to put him down about his body and that was it, considering how he wrote the story the people in his life HAVE to know how he sees himself
Because he didn't make it known to everyone he was eating the rest of the sandwich and someone wanted more of the sandwich. Common courtesy at a party is if you are going to eat the rest of something you ask everyone if anyone wanted some more of it before you finish it.
all three of them had the greatest reactions to the last story, especially at 1:01:38 - 1:01:40. Chanse putting his hand up. Angela looking down in open-mouthed disbelief. Shayne looking directly ahead at us as if to say "are you hearing this". Pure art
having your birthday on or near a major holiday will give you such a complex, honestly. it takes a lot of time and effort to ignore how inferior it can make you feel.
The Sandwich story: as a large guy myself, SURE I can acknowledge that fact, and even make it seem like a super casual observation and that I’m “clearly” cool with it. I’m not. I hear myself in “Alan’s” voice. ANYTIME family/friends get together and put out a spread, I INTENTIONALLY “head to the bathroom” or do something that puts me in a situation where I’m ALWAYS last in line. I’m TERRIFIED of taking more than my share and potentially being shamed. I feel bad for Alan, but I DO see the point (but not the execution) of the friend’s criticism.
Honestly same. I’ve seen skinnier people eat more than someone of my size and they’re usually never told anything, but I watch how much I eat (which for the record because of having this kind of mindset I don’t eat much on a regular day) and yet I’m still on the bigger side. If I consume more that what others expect of me I’m easily called out and it’s frustrating.
i personally think its truly just a communication issue, but i feel like theres something deeper we arent seeing because his “friends” seen him eating it and yet didnt think to say “hey can u save some for us” like thats weird as hell to me
I think that's a good way of saying that. The point the friends had was valid, but the execution was poor. The issue I have with the friends in Alan's story was how they ganged up on him and fat shamed him, and when he tried to reconcile, they just didn't let him. They could've been more civil about it because they had a good point, but their execution was over the top
The sandwich story got me so angry. It is extremely rude for that host to humiliate a guest and friend the way she did him. As a host, I would just go get some extra food, and maybe if it happened again, I'd discuss it privately. Even if he is completely in the wrong, so are they. I'd find different friends if I were him.
Agreed. This girlfriend really needed to ask herself 1. Would i be this angry if a skinny person had eaten the sandwich? 2. What exactly is it that i want this guy to do to make it right (and "sit in the corner and rot" is not an acceptable answer)? 3. Is this *really* a discussion we need to have right now in front of a crowd of friends? To me, this seems very much like the issue wasn't that he took a portion of the sandwich that she wanted, but that he was "too hungry" and doing too much to remind them of his fatness. I get the sense that this one sandwich was not the issue, it's something much older.
For real he seemed to take every consideration other than announcing to the room at large that he was planning on finishing the sandwich, and they're treating him like No Face gobbling up all the employees at the bath house.
That story where they made fun of the dudes size was so sad because she could have solved that whole insecurity issue for him by saying something like “You think it’s small?” And backing him up but she just piled on him too. Mens size is like a woman’s size, you gotta be careful talking about it
The problem is that the prompt that she used his size in was “something that’s small”. She shouldn’t have made the joke, but I do agree that she could have done some damage control, even by saying “haha I was joking around. he’s definitely a grower” or like Shayne said “we call it Bruce Banner cause it turns into the Hulk”
The penis story is not complicated. She’s making fun of him and he told her not to and she said that he was overreacting and posted this story publicly.
Yeah, don't make fun of people's bodies! It's really rude of her to be asking if the boyfriend was being extra because all he did was confide in her about his feelings. If someone's showing you that you stepped on their boundaries, then it's a done deal. You should take that and apologize and never do it again.
Yeah, body shaming is never okay. Unless you're joking about yourself, you shouldn't do it, because it always comes off as cruel and inconsiderate. Anyone who would do something like this is not someone you should be with because they are not someone you can be safely vulnerable with.
Also .. she seemingly made up afterwards, THEN WENT TO REDDIT to complain ?? Makes her apology feel like a lie. Idk man I think he's better off without her.
Yea didn't really like their take on that, they did this last time too where they didn't want to say she was an ahole and then proceeds to make fun of his insecurity. If he made a joke about her breasts, I doubt they would say the same that she can't take a joke.
For the last story, I'd be worried for OP's safety. If crazy boyfriend reacted that strongly to kids knocking a ball on his lawn, he's probably going to act EVEN CRAZIER when he find out OP wiped and gave away his PS4. I hope she gets a restraining order or security or something.
Interesting to me how nobody is saying he might have had a mental episode. If he's normally chill and normal and this was so sudden and out of nowhere it very well could have been an unknown disorder or a sudden psychotic break.
@@BusinessSkrub7 months is not too long to know someone for real at all. he could easily just be an asshole.not eveyone who snaps is mentally ill either.
Sorry, but the WAP mom sounds freaking AWESOME to me! Her daughter is just being overly uptight because she's still figuring herself out and has fragile self esteem. When you hear about all the crazy stuff moms commonly do to emotionally scar their kids, this mom seems like a dream mom compared to those others. I think her daughter is just at an age where she will always be mortified by anything her mom does, but hopefully she'll grow out of that soon.
Fun fact: Twins, triplets, etc can in fact have different fathers (presuming they are not identical). It’s called heteropaternal superfecundation. Super rare though.
@@rangasfireis that like a thing about the genetics in the animal or is it about the fact that they have litters/normally have more than one offspring at one time
@@rangasfirei mean. The litter my dog was from had obvious multiple fathers Two were big huge dark brown ones, one was like. A fluffy scruffy lab type(?) and three were small and orange-brown and white like the mom (Well one of the orange and white, my dog Walker, is a medium but the other two are like. Chihuahua size.)
the sandwich story will always make me mad because they all sat there and watched him and none of them told him to roll it back. they were probably all sitting there laughing at him and they didn't take any responsibility by calling him out. also calling him a pig was insane like if he's done this multiple times they should have had a conversation with him instead of letting these grievances build up.
And having the audacity to be angry with him for finishing the sandwich after they ate all his wings. They somehow saw nothing wrong with the person who brought the wings not getting any. I don’t care if he’s one person, they did the same thing to him, and got mad when they got a taste of their own medicine. That part really gets me. The hypocrisy.
I think as a friend, if you know your friend likes to eat, and eats more than otherpeople, when you throw a party, won’t you just sort of take that into consideration when buying food
It sounds like only one person was angry about it and she told his sisters. Also wings aren’t expensive. So him thinking his wings equal a sandwich is crazy. Some of those party subs are crazy expensive.
First story: I worked at a before/after school care program. There were two twins who were mixed: one twin had dark hair and brown eyes. The other had blonde hair and blue eyes. You could totally tell they were related regardless. Genetics are random af so…. Yes this girl was TOTALLY the AH
Yup. A friend and their brothers have such similar facial structure but such different colorings (one is all dark brown eyes, dark brown hair, darker skin; one is a pale, blue eyed blonde, one is in the middle with auburn hair) that i used to joke that their parents sat down with a catalog, picked a good option, and just got one in every color. A college friend came from a family of white people and got all the dark genes so people mistake her for all sorts of ethnicities. Genetics are weird, and it's none of your business how your friend's kids came to be.
My mom is a twin. When they were first born, my aunt had that thing some newborn babies get where their face is purple. By the time the babies came home it had started to fade, but her face still looked darker than my mother's. Their older brother told all the neighborhood kids that has mom had one white baby and one black baby, and they all wanted to come and see.
This. My partner has much lighter skin than both of his parents and his older sister, who appears to be an even mix of their parents' skin tones. His sister has 4 sons, the first is even lighter than my bf, the twins are the same shade as their dad (who is much darker, he's of Caribbean descent), and the youngest is right in between mom and dad. Genetics are so cool but very unpredictable! That girl is the AH, she needs to learn more about genetics before she assumes the mom is a cheater. You'd think she'd know her friend better.
the sandwich story made me tear up a bit i can’t lie, i can’t imagine making your friend feel that bad over eating a little bit more than his share at a party when the food had just been sitting around and he had the courtesy to wait a while before eating more. it’s okay to set the boundary that he can’t eat ALL of the leftovers but to be so cruel to him over a sandwich when he brought food himself (that he didn’t get any of) and waited a good amount of time before deciding to eat the food SO IT DIDNT GO TO WASTE! alan would be welcome at my gatherings any day, i love cooking for people and if i had a whole spread set up and no one else was eating it i’d be pretty bummed as a host.
Chanse’s really quiet “Shayne” as he and Angela processed the last story. Looks like he just blacked out for a moment, you good buddy? 😂 Also somebody get Angela an Oscar for that performance.
i hope she apologized to the mom after. i would totally have freaked out too, but only on the guy who did it. she says she did scream at him til he left, those poor vocal chords
@@reckless_herb tbf witnessing that first hand and being associated with the person and that being a complete left field is probably a super mindfuck moment.
See that's always cute but doing it to the dirtiest sex song though... I don't get why that doesn't freak ppl out. I'd freak out if someone was playing that song for my teen.
@@evanjuleensex songs have been on the radio since the dawn of time and like. Family members joke about sex after a certain age it's fine you can relax
@@evanjuleenAt 16 you know about sex and you most definitely would've heard that song at that time. WAP is literally a song that my mom and me sing to get my younger sister out of a bad mood. 😂
with the “grower, not a show-er” story, I feel like a point that was missed is also that the bf had confided in the gf that locker room talk made him uncomfortable and self-conscious. she was obviously in the wrong for joking about her bf’s body, that body part already being and insecurity of his, and doing it in front of of his friends. but even if it had been a moment where she wasn’t thinking and his friends hadn’t started joking around about it, if he brought up that he was hurt, he would still be valid because he had already talked to her about that insecurity
I’m glad you brought up the art one again because there was something I missed the first time. 23:20 word got around? So he didn’t even tell her he sold her art at a gallery. He said he kept the money as “payment for showing her what the art was worth”, but never actually intended to show her he flipped it for profit. he definitely bragged about it to the wrong person how he used someone else’s art to make money, and they told the original artist.
Seriously, OP tried so hard to sound right but still the assholery shines through. If they were just trying to prove a point, they’d have only kept what they originally paid. OP did it for the cash and is trying to hide it behind a high horse.
@@EclipseStudios970 he's an asshole only bc he didn't actually tell the artist he was going to re-sell the art for a higher price. that's shady AF and he deserves it. if he had been honest from the beginning, no, he wouldn't be the asshole. 🤷
I bet if Allan had an athletic build and ate a lot, they would have a different reaction. If they are really friends they should be able to have a conversation with him,
Another thing with the artist friend story, the artist was selling prints on a site! Buying those prints and then selling them (in a place where you could potentially do this repeatedly) is also a jerk thing to do when you could instead just go "yeah my friend made these, you can buy them on her site!" It proves that the op was more interested in money than the friend from the very beginning
yeah! and OP phrases it like it was about proving the point that they were underpricing the prints to show the artist they're missing out, but they didn't even directly tell the artist that the resold them or for how much, so it feels like it's more about OP seeing a chance to make money and kind of saying "okay if artist won't make that money I should."
@@theo_tr4aut No, you can resell art. You can't make copies but you can sell the piece you own, that's your property now. It's a jerk move but not breaking any laws
No, no, no. The point was to get the artist to see their worth and help them profit by showing what the market value could be. If all they did was redirect people to the website then there is no incentive for the artist to change their pricing. OP was an asshole by not telling the artist beforehand and by not sharing the profits. Gallery prices are generally higher than online prices because the galleries usually take a cut for displaying the work, the crowd exposure is also different, and the art sold in galleries are usually one offs or limited runs which fetch higher prices due to the scarcity. If I was op and I did that, I mean, I wouldn't because it's dishonest, but for sake of argument, I'd subtract what I paid initially including shipping, plus any other fees, and I would give the profit to the artist. That's how you make it fair. If the artist wants to provide OP with work to continue selling, then they can work out a seller's fee. It's the initial lying by omission and not sharing the profits that are the real problem.
I don't agree at all. He tells her she could get way more for the prints, she says not interested, he ends up buying them and selling for a profit, and NOW she wants his money. It was her choice to sell at a lowball price and it was his choice to do whatever he wanted with his property. He doesn't owe her shit.
As someone who has a Christmas Eve birthday, I totally get where the COD op is coming from. You just want your birthday to be YOURS. Everyone else gets their day, you just want yours. It’s hard having to ALWAYS balance and share
With the COD Christmas story, I agree with Shane that the magic of Christmas day ends around noon. He can spend the morning opening presents with his kids, then hop on COD with his boys in the afternoon after everything is cleaned up and the energy has died down. Maybe the wife wants to do a family dinner? Then play in the evening after the kids are asleep. There are ways to make both work.
His wife could have just gifted him his time with the boys as a birthday present. Clearly his birthday means a lot to him, because he never had any. He's being protective and I completely get that. And these friends are clearly very close to him, akin family. If anything she sound a bit control-freakish to me. Threatened to throw his XBOX away, doesn't like his friends. Even that part that she doesn't want him helping in the kitchen plays into that
I kind of agree and kind of disagree. Don't Americans have christmas supper? How do you get a whole christmas dinner cooked for noon? (I guess it makes all those American christmas movies about being so stressed about the turkey make more sense lol). Also I think we need some info on what COD with the boys means because some people think playing online games for 8-12 hours is a "normal" amount of time for a gaming session. And sure that's great if you have no other responsibilities but the dude does have other responsibilities.
@@new0news I think you're mixing up Christmas Eve dinner with Christmas day. Christmas Eve dinner happens on the 24th and Christmas is on the 25th, when you open the gifts in the morning, and nothing else happens usually, unless you have a Christmas lunch. He could've still played with his friends later in the afternoon. It sounds to me like she absolutely hates that he wants to spend some amount of time with his friends. That man is on a leash 24/7 (He also said that all he does is spend time with his kids, and that he hasn't seen his friends in 3 years, since his first child was born). My boyfriend of 10 years spends time playing online with his friends multiple times a week. It's the one things he loves to do and I think it's fair that he gets that alone time with the boys. That woman is cruel.
@@new0newsThe thing is though, just bc he's playing with the boys doesn't mean he can't take breaks. I play with friends and the guy friends I have would sometimes sit out some rounds to do things when they're asked to do stuff by people at home/partners. Also, idk about you but if my bf/husband asked to spend half of his bday with his friends, I'd let him. He's not asking for a whole week off of daddy duties and he mentioned that he's never hung out with those friends in years. Hell, if my partner hadn't seen a friend for even just a YEAR and only had ONE chance to do it bc of sched conflicts, I'd let him.
@@new0news every family is different. My family does a brunch. Even so, like I said, OP could play after dinner when everything is cleaned up and his kid is asleep. The part of Christmas that a 3yr old would really care about is the presents, and that part is usually done in the morning. So, OP spends the morning opening presents with his kid, then plays COD after while his kid plays with his gifts. OR maybe he and his wife could negotiate out a time frame or limit. Like, he plays until dinner, or for a set amount of hours, or he doesn't play until everything's been cleaned up, or until the kid's asleep, or whatever. They just need to communicate and work out a way for him to have a good day
Yeah...I'm in childcare and parents already are tired of there kids that generally day after Christmas we're open. New years is different because half time people are still hung over or out of town.
Having Angela and Chanse on here together was a genius, the best chaotic, sibling like duo and having them here for a episode where Shayne reads stories from when they did it in twitch 😭🤚🏻 ( and also I have a small obsession with Angela rn and I’m just so inlove with her contagious laugh 9:43 💀🤚🏻 )
I will say that I've met people who genuinely doesn't like people being there because they find it messy when the other person could genuinely help, but he can always always find something to do. Like help cleaning up. Not even in the kitchen, just around the house or helping to take care or his kids or something like damn.
Jesus, I can only imagine him sitting on a chair watching her do EVERYTHING, being super overwhelmed with preparing the food, the table, cleaning everything before and after and him just being like "mE and tHe bOis"
I haven’t reached that story yet but one time I set bacon on fire twice in a row so mutual kicking out of the kitchen is necessary for survival. Not always…but sometimes.
Not really. It’s the same with my husband. I don’t like him helping out in the kitchen. He’s just way too messy for me. He really really doesn’t do it on purpose. He sees me struggling sometimes and actually begs me to let him help but I happen to end up re-cleaning whatever he cleans because i just can’t stand it when things aren’t done a certain way. Sometimes when I’m too tired i do end up letting him clean up after me but i don’t enter the kitchen then and just deal with whatever the next day. And i don’t like him helping with the prep either, he’s can cut stuff up but i like to have them precise, I’m very particular about prepping as it affects the cooking process a lot. So it just works out easier for me emotionally if he doesn’t help, even though physically it might be a bit taxing
I always feel bad for the people who’s birthday falls on a gift Holiday. SO many people use that opportunity to screw them out of actually celebrating their birthday that I completely get him being all “screw Christmas, I’m celebrating my birthday with my friends”. Like my birthday is just a few weeks after Christmas and I occasionally got hit with the “but you already got gifts during Christmas”, I can imagine what people who’s birthday lands on or near Christmas have to deal with. Haven’t run into many people who are actually happy their birthday is on Christmas.
Dude some years my birthday is on Thanksgiving, ( which I don't celebrate) but a lot of people are out of state when I try to have a party. Also my brothers is like two days before christmas so he has the same problem.
i was born on valentines day, and while its a small holiday, friends usually tell me they don't wanna celebrate my birthday cause they have significant others to see and that i should understand.
This! I feel like people don’t realize or understand when your birthday falls close to a holiday like Christmas, it often does get undermined. He just wants his actual day of birth to be acknowledged a little!!
Yes! I'm an identical twin and was born 3 days before Christmas, so for a long time my birthday was never *mine*. It's really freeing when someone/people recognize the day (or part of it) as special for you specifically. It shows that they took the time to think of you and it's absolutely mind-blowing the first time it happens. I'll never stop being thankful when it does.
For the selling the friends art one; if was it really about proving a point, why did the artist have to find out about it from other friends? For OP to be proving a point about how much the artist could sell their prints for, wouldn't they have had to tell their "friend" about the sale?
So MUCH yes. To me, this isn't teaching a friend a lesson, because otherwise the poster would have been much more upfront about it. This was about exploiting a friend's vulnerability (most artists' vulnerability, tbh, artists that are good at pricing their own work are fecking unicorns) for cash and then getting angry when people expect you to prioritize your friendship over your profits.
It kind of removes special friendship meaning when she charges her friend the exact same amount she would a random person. Then theres the part where if it was really about friendship, she would have chewed her friend out about selling the art... no, instead she demanded her friend give ALL the money for it. Seems to me like greed and not understanding how ownership works. She truly thinks that it's still HER art after it's sold. I'll ask what Shane asked... is $300 worth ending their friendship over? They didn't mention friendship.. they wanted MONEY. For the artists, it was money over friendship.
@@ryanthompson3737OP definitely chose money over friendship too, it's just kinda shitty how they went out of their way to go behind their friends back with the intention of profiting off them.
@@legoyoda9782 I agree except for the last part. If I'm PAYING for something, it will always be mine to do whatever with. There is ZERO sentimental or hippity dipity value because she's paying what everyone else paid for it. It can't be behind someone's back when there's already been a social contract written allowing that.
Next batch of Reddit stories I want to hear: -pets -service industry -parenting -In-laws -peacocking gone wrong -landlord+tenant+roommate -roommate stories part 2 -wedding stories part 2 -child free people stories
Angela is so right about the pizza story. At that age you just dont even want your friends around your mom but that probably wouldve gone well with family.
As someone who did have a loud and silly mom, with an older sister who would get embarrassed by her a lot, I learned early on to stop caring what my mom does and let her be. It’s so fun listening and revisiting these old stories.
Imagine in ten years when she gets to go "Hey mom, remember the wet ass pizza thing?" and gets to rib her for it. These kinds of harmless but memorable things might seem shitty in the moment, but end up being bonding moments.
I absolutely understand Angela's point. The art dealer leveraged their contacts and made money off of their friend when the friend didn't have the same ability and forum to sell their paintings.
Agreed. I think Shayne has a good suggestion where the guy could have said let me take some of your art and showcase it here and price it like I think it could sell and we'll share the profits. This guy seemed more interested in showing "how smart" he is about art and money rather than be a friend. It's the "helping" that's not really help.
I think the artist is as much of an asshole. Their first reaction to hearing that their friend sold their art for more was to demand the money? Why not step back and do what the 'dealer' did? Leverage their contacts. Try to get more of their art up in that shop and other similar places and offer a small cut to their friend for their help. Do what friends do and work together. The artist is clearly a bad salesperson, so leave the selling to someone else and focus on the art. It's a win-win. But no, $300 dollars also matters more than their friendship to the artist, like it does to the dealer. Both assholes.
@@CMIcoolio123ABC I think i would have asked the gallery friend if we could make a deal to put my art up there and share the profits. They're both assholes. They are friends: one is an up and coming artist and one runs a coffee shop/gallery. Seems like they could both help eachother and make it a nice friendly thing.
@@CMIcoolio123ABCyeah no, they resold someone else's art when they have their own store. They stole money from their friend, the friend isn't an asshole for wanting what's theirs in the first place. They stole traffic from the friends store and overpriced it. There's a variety of reasons why it could have been priced that way, and if your friend is willing to break your boundaries and steal from you then they aren't a friend.
Growing up my family would go on a yearly vacation and my sister spent most of the time playing in the pool and such, no splashing or screaming but laughing and having fun swimming about. A woman (with her chair close to the pool) started complaining we were making noise so my mom cannonballed into the pool, splashing the woman. Being younger I was super shy and embarrassed but looking back all I can think of how funny and badass my mom was for doing that.
Of course WAP mom was deemed the AH. If the running joke is reddit is composed of a bunch of teenagers😂 Every girl who has an active loving mom goes thru those rough teenage years and hopefully grow to be friends with their mom
@@horizonkyun7203 it's really not that bad, when I look back at my humiliating moments with my parents, I NEVER feel embarrassed, in fact I feel kinda bad/regret that I didn't laugh along and join in if I could have.
Im so grateful I never went through an “embarrassed of my parents” phase. They are both pretty goofy, but never went out of their way to embarrass me, and I could recognize that. Wet ass pizza mom reminds me a lot of my dad, and that story honestly made my day lol.
the sandwich story made me so sad. it reminded me of the worst depressive episode i have ever experienced when i was battling binge eating and food addiction. this is something i would've done. could allan have handled the situation a little better? probably, but he didn't deserve those disparaging comments. allan deserves so much better. HE IS A LEGEND.

There's absolutely nothing complicated about the boyfriend's penis story. He went along with it, explained in private why it makes him uncomfortable, explained the history about it and asked her not to make the joke again. Respect other peoples boundaries. He is not blowing it out of proportion and if anything, the OP was not taking her boyfriend seriously.
Yeah them saying it was so complicated was kinda weird and I think Angela kinda felt it too. It's not complicated. The OP was an asshole. There's not really an angle where she isn't
real, u should never ever make fun of something ur partner (or anyone) cant change in a room with other people.. especially since it's genitals
Yup. I honestly think the whole thing was a No Assholes Here situation (like she was mildly an AH for mocking his penis in front of all his friends to begin with, but not a huge deal) until the point where she decides to post on Reddit about it and tack on that "is he overreacting? shouldn't he just take a joke??" like damn, all he did was express to her in private that it made him feel insecure because he doesn't enjoy being teased about it (who tf enjoys having your entire group of friends laughing at how small your dick is?!?) and expressed that he doesn't want her to do that anymore. People are allowed to have boundaries about their partner making fun of them to other people. If it makes them uncomfortable/insecure then you should just respect that. It's not an "overreaction" to not want your gf to make you the butt of the joke to the entire friend group, over something that is a touchy subject for you. Some people are OK with that, but lots of people aren't. He expressed it in a very reasonable and healthy way, he wasn't mad at her, they talked it out, that should be the end of the story. Why tf did she have to turn around and be like "OK BUT IS HE ACTUALLY AN ASSHOLE THO"
Just drop a pic in the group chat.
THISS. I was literally shouting to the screen. It's NOT complicated, she was being an asshole for the fact that she's even thinking he is blowing it out of proportion. Just because you don't understand the insecurity he feels, doesn't mean he's being dramatic what the hell...
“In most situations, making fun of your partner’s genitals in front of a group of people is generally not good.” Words of Wisdom from Shayne
Yet he said it was “complicated” imagine if the genders were reversed he would’ve gotten his sword and shield out so fast
@@lunchbox3124 when people say complicated they usually mean there's a whole lot of conversation within that conversation to go over so everyone's on the same page everytime it's on topic but time and social eloquency makes it hard to distill it into a quick brief.
Think of it like a long sigh when you know there's more to say but you're or your energy is simply not capable of navigating at that moment.
Never insult your partner (especially publicly) to others because it is as much a reflection of you as it is them. If it's minor everyday things not if they're seriously abusive like physically. I don't understand people complaining about their spouse or insulting their spouse online or in public because WHY are you complaining? YOU picked them... what does that say about you? It really confuses me when comedians do it. Telling funny stories about your partner is fine but when people actively complain and insult their partner their partener isn't the problem
Another banger from Shayne from iCarly
Honestly I think it’s pretty clear the gf was the AH. You don’t joke abt your partner’s physical attributes (esp. Something as personal as genitals) in front of others if you are not 1000% sure they’re ok with it. Yeah you might joke about it as couples, but that’s not a ticket to make it a punchline with other people he admires. That could have been SO awkward, and while everyone played it off in good fun, clearly boyfriend wasn’t comfortable with that. She is the AH bc she didn’t clear that with him first, it’s not “complicated”, and I can’t believe him expressing his feelings could be seen as “blowing it out of proportion”.
My big thing with the sandwich story is like, after an hour.... the bread is soggy, the lettuce wilted, the meat is cold, no one else was going to have any of that after an hour.
Except for the friend who was apparently away, had her mind on eating it, and made a scene out of it.
The way they didn't say anything and then exploded at him makes me feel like they were waiting for a reason to bully him. They completely overreacted and calling someone a pig for eating food is just so vile. He even tried to apologize and buy a new sandwich and she kept being an asshole. I feel so bad for the guy.
What gets to me is that none of his friends said anything, all the complaining and name calling was done by one person who roped her friends into siding with her. It seems like nobody else cared about it.
@@s-s00Except it's clear the amount of food wasn't properly calculated, as they had no problem eating all of OPs wings without him getting one. And if this food was supposed to be reserved for someone specific, it probably should've been moved to the side or even the fridge by the host, especially if it's his girlfriend. OP literally brought his own food and was still hungry. This party didn't have enough food or snacks.
@sashathebee I see your point, but the op offered to buy more food and was turned down pretty harshly. At that point I think the person was more into trying to humiliate the op (called him a pig in FRONT of everyone) than focused about the food. And hey, shit happens. If there's not a lot of food left and people are hungry, get more fucking food? And if you have an issue with the money, tell the people you didn't expect to run out of food as quickly and if they could pitch in a bit?
"We call it Bruce Banner cause IT TURNS INTO THE HULK." can we all take a moment to recognize Shayne's comic genius for coming up with that on the spot? There's a LEGEND too.
I appreciate that Angela mentioned feeding yourself is a vulnerable thing to do. Like she said he was hungry and waited and waited. Poor guy.
I also appreciate that--especially when your food requirements are so different from the people around you, it definitely can be a lot
Waited longer than they even mentioned if you really listened he waited an hour before he was hungry then waited ANOTHER hour and a half. Until he grabbed the first half. Now only waiting another 10-15 after that to wipe out the rest after you just ate a foot and a half may have been a bit much
yup he waited for a hour after the party started then waited another hour and half so the party has been going on for 2 and a half hours then 2:45 in he eats the rest then they freak out like the party has been going on for almost 3 hours like yes he should of announced anyone want more cause I’m gonna eat it and the fact they bullied him even worse after he offered to buy mor food is literally crazy but yeah he waited a long time
He’s still an AH. He had already eaten a portion of the sandwich so he likely ate 2/3 of it. As someone who has a huge appetite, if you know you’re going to eat out of proportion to the other guests you bring extra food for yourself.
think they’re made becaUe parties don’t end that early and he pretty much ended the party within the shortest amount of time possible, the fight hadn’t even ended. People are going to want to eat while they stand around after talking about the fight
Poor Allan, they were waiting for him to do something like this to have this reaction, especially the girlfriend. I bet they always complain about him behind his back. They didn't let him buy more food, because they weren't really hungry, they just wanted to get their feelings out.
i watched this with my bf and that was the first thing i said. the way they let him make a "problem" out of himself while they just watched and pig rolled off of the gfs tongue so easily. like i could NEVER call someone that, especially when i basically set a trap for them. poor allan i hope he finds better friends.
@@xpeachypie4133100% agree I would be upset too but I would stop being upset as soon as Allan offered to buy more food.
They are blatantly fatphobic. The girlfriend’s comments are out of bounds. He wasn’t even inconsiderate! He was going to buy more food, and if she wants a sandwich from her friends shop she can go tomorrow. It’s not like it’s the only food she can eat in that moment.
I agree. I also think this type of drama is "Cinderella drama," meaning once midnight hits, the day is over... let it go. What good is done to keep it going, in this case? I situation is over, learn what lessons are there to learn and move on.
I feel for Allan cause my family has raised me in a way that you shouldn't eat before you go out plus I get hungry fast asf so I can relate waiting an hour or more just to eat. Those people are just bullies and really mean
About the twin story: Triplets are most often a set of identical twins and a fraternal triplet, so it is absolutely reasonable that one of them would not share all of the same traits. ADDITIONALLY, skin color is not a simple punnett square situation in the way something like eye color might be. Somewhere upwards of 300 different genetic expressions contribute to melanin production and skin color. Skin color can also change and develop until a child is around two. The range for phenotype variability when it comes to skin color, especially in biracial children, is very significant.
Thank you!! Finally someone who knows how things are!
The punnet square isn't accurate to eye colors anymore either. I think there is like 20-ish different genes that can determine eye color.
It was something like the BB, Bb, bb still works, but you can have a person with BB (brown) that has blue or green eyes, same with the other two. The percentage is low, but it happens.
@@lina9535 Yeah, for example both the OCA2 and HERC2 genes contain recessive alleles that can cause blue eyes. So if two blue eyed people with blue eyes due to the same gene have kids together, all the kids will be blue eyed, but if someone with HERC2 related blue eyes and someone with OCA2 related blue eyes get together, and neither of them carry an allele for blue eyes in the other gene, they will actually have 100% brown-eyed kids. However, most blue eyed people of European ancestry are all descended from the same person who had a HERC2 mutation, so that's why we thought it was a single gene trait for so long.
YESSSS
That's funny, I never knew that was how it was usually because the only triplets I've ever known IRL are a set of them I went to high school with. Three blonde dudes, but they were all radically different heights. Like the shortest was 5'1" maybe and the tallest was well over 6 feet and on the basketball team. And then the third was average height
@@DavidSSabb that probably means that they were identical, but while in the uterus they were basically scrapping for nutrients, so the height aspect wasn’t fairly distributed, thats usually why you see identical twins but one of them is notably bigger than then other
The “my winky fell off” is hilarious. I love that so much and that’s just a sibling thing. I’ve heard and experienced way worse than that as well with siblings.
My brother used to tell me that the reason I don't have a "winky" is because a bear came and clawed it off. 😂🤣
I know right?? 😂😂I laughed so freaking hard omg lol😂😂
I had to stop and question myself for a minute because I have two brothers, who were toddlers, when I was 13 and I vividly remember having a very similar conversation with them when they barged in on me in the bathroom. I remember that it wasn’t mee, but oh man, I’m so glad other people had the same experience as an eldest sister.
That sounds like something I would say to my little brother lol. He probably wouldn’t be scared tho, he’d prob think it’s funny.
I don't think Shayne and Smosh crew know how much this series impacts our Saturdays 😭I don't know what I would do if this series ends.
I know! I felt like something was missing when an episode didn’t come out
I Know!!
It’s Shayne
Agreed I work night amd for my time zone these get released just as I finish work and Is a great way to wind down after my shift
youd probably just do something else.
With the stache, Shayne is looking more and more like a dad. Only thing missing are some readers resting at the edge of his nose and some throat clearing.
I literally was like when I saw him he’s giving drunk dad energy with that mustache it’s giving hopper from stranger things
Short stack Chris Evans this dude is great
would
And a sweater
He looks and sounds kind of like my choir teacher 😭 who grew a mustache last year and its all i can think of
Nah. That woman was vile and she was waiting for the right moment to humiliate allan. And everyone of his friend jumped in.
Okay right?? It feels like she doesn’t like him or is projecting her own issues with food/weight on him. Pointing out that they saw him eating it but then also asking the group “where did the sandwich go?” is way over dramatic
@JalapenoBizniz like she waited for him to finish the remaining 3 inches of sandwich and then proceeded to make a scene. I felt bad for Allan. Apparently, all the reddit people were saying he's the asshole for it. For example, if the food was the problem, then go fcking buy another set of it. He even offered yet they all want him to feel shitty about himself
Asking "Where did the sandwich go?" AS IF YOU DIDNT BUY IT TO BE EATEN. And not only did he wait over an hour to get seconds, but he still left some for people to get and waited ANOTHER HOUR to eat the rest of it. Honestly if you have an event where food is served, it's etiquette for everyone to get one serving of everything, but after that it's fair game. The fatphobia in this story is just so apparent and disgusting
Yes! My thoughts exactly. I really think they were watching to see if he was going to eat it 🤷🏼♀️
All I know is I always cook way too much food and I'd love to have Allan over! He sounds like a decent human and the world needs more of those 💚
seeing how passionate angela and chanse are about hosting/feeding people is really something. they're truly people who embody the idea of keeping the hearth warm. i love to see it
The sandwich story almost had me crying. I hope Allen's so called friends watch this episode and read these comments. He deserves better.
He doesn't need friends who have to watch over him and tell him when he has to stop eating. I'm glad they told him something, he needs help
@@Monster_sky_high If they really wanted to help him stop eating so much they could have told him that his eating habits are concerning them or sent him resources to help him eat healthier. Instead they called him a pig and refused to talk to him again. Insults don't help anyone. All they did was make him feel bad.
@studioskyla2918 obviously you don't understand the story or you're just as bad as the other people in that story. Just gross....
@@Monster_sky_high *you* need help with this kind of mindset.
@@Monster_sky_highyou’re 100% one of the people who called him a pig
i swear to god the woman who made fun of allan calling him a pig makes me so angry. that is just plain cruel. I’m with chanse, food is there to be eaten. plain and simple.
Like if it’s gone it’s gone
Exactly! ALSO, if the sandwich would’ve sat out much longer it would’ve gone bad & probably made someone sick. I’m happy that he ate it when he did for multiple reasons.
@@Ash-Ketchum702 Seriously though. Especially if it's not fast food like subway. They said it was made by a local store so they probably didn't use preservative rich foods so that sandwich definitely probably wouldn't have lasted much longer.
The only issue with it is the fact he didn't ask, but even then I feel like he did everything right after. Like I totally get it, I can't eat that much food but I can easily down one of those Walmart 2ft long subs. I usually only get 6 inches because they're always for groups. If there's extra I just ask if everyone who wants some got some, ask how much they've had, and help dish it out or whatever before I finish the rest. If I didn't ask or do any of that I feel like the perfect response is to pay for how much I ate, get food, basically what he offered.
And people were obvious paying attention as they immediately knew who ate it. No one said jack until someone was mad.
One of the things that really is commendable about the Boyfriend in the “making fun of my bf’s penis” story is that he very easily could’ve been the asshole if he went off on his girlfriend at the party itself.
He waited until they were private and didn’t embarrass her in public, sorry gf that wasn’t him overreacting. That was proper boundary setting and communication skills.
Very true! He handled it with the tact his girlfriend lacks
Would he be the sole asshole tho? I think it'd be ESH at best.
She's body shaming him in front of his friends. I was just thinking about that one reddit story they read a while back about the boyfriend who kept telling the gf that she needs a shower as a way to neg her to keep her to stay with him, and while the last part is probably not the case in this story, it doesn't feel totally dissimilar. She's regularly playing with his insecurity, and in this story she brings it up in an inappropriate context in front of his friends.
@@aveaoz that’s what I meant thanks for clarifying! I generally mean it would’ve complicated the situation more in that scenario.
@@aveaoz honestly, even if he did erupt in public and broke up with her, I still wouldn't call him an asshole. She picked at a known insecurity in public. Only the person in the body can make the joke about the body.
imo, she wasn't an asshole until she went 'is he overreacting?' Like you said, he used proper communication to say it when they were in private, even saying that he would never do that so that she could maybe understand better, but then she goes on reddit to ask if she was somehow justified in making fun of him.
as someone who’s birthday is almost always on thanksgiving, i feel for the COD guy a little bit. It’s hard bc he is a dad so it’s like, dude, sacrifice. But also, everyone deserves to celebrate their birthday.
Yeah. I feel like that might be one of the more complicated stories on here. As long as it's not an unreliable narrator situation, there's a lot of possible factors.
On the one hand, having kids is (usually) a conscious choice, and so you have to expect to lose a lot of your free time to them, especially when they're that young.
On the other hand, I feel like people are over-valuing the importance of Christmas being celebrated on the exact right day. If Christmas was really the first time in 3 years that all his old friends were going to be online together, I don't see the harm in possibly celebrating Christmas on Christmas Eve or the 26th, as it's probably going to be another number of months or years before those friends are all together again. And speaking as someone who most strongly connects and opens up to people while playing games with them (digital, tabletop, or otherwise), playing together with people can be something a lot more than just trying to rack up ranks for a few hours.
Overall, I think the whole issue could be avoided by just having an open and honest conversation a week or so ahead of time to figure out the best way for everyone to be happy.
Also they keep saying how he could have shifted it but he literally stated that he couldn’t because all of his friends chose this day and time to play and couldn’t reschedule but ig they missed that?
@daishagreene1782 They did from the sound of it also they probably chose this day because it's his birthday kinda sounds like they planed it out a bit ago
@@DefectiveDictionary777I agree, it’s super complicated if he’s a reliable narrator. If that’s the case maybe he could play while the kids nap, because they were still small enough where they’d take at least one.
i was hoping to see someone defend him lol. my birthday is december 22 and growing up, i spent so many birthdays with little to no friends because everyone was busy or traveling for christmas. the day itself IS kind of a big deal to me (the same way getting separate bday and christmas gifts is a silly thing i care about) and if i wasn't allowed to spend a couple hours with my friends, kids or not, i would be pretty upset. there's plenty of hours in the day and i'm assuming the kids go to bed early, so what's the big deal if he plays COD with the boys in the evening lol it's not like they opened presents and he immediately put on a headset
With the sandwich guy, he gets a pass because not only did he wait, he mentioned how in that hour people still got up and got OTHER food, and skipped over the sandwich. Meaning they just didnt want it but wanted the other food and were still eating
Very good point!
no, he said they were still munching on snacks which were probably in the living room, people were not in and out of the kitchen
@@succubitch1054 wtf kind of parties do you go to where the food isn’t all out together?
Also I think the only person who even wanted some was the girl who called him a pig
The sandwich story is easily the worst one for me. There are so many signs that everyone created an opening to trash on OP and his eating problem. They ate all yhe wings without even thinking of leaving any for him. They knew the sandwich was out and anyone with a brain knows that sandwiches wont be as good after an hour of being left out, but even then no one stopped him from eating it and let him do it. Then when he offered to get more food, they insult him and say its not good enough
Yeah, it almost feels like they set him up for humiliation as a method of an intervention. It’s so awful. 😢
@@lindsgleason I don't even think its an intervention. It sounds like a group of people who keep him around so they can insult and shit on him to make themselves feel better whenever they want.
Its either that, OR Alan's family is really on his case about his eating problem, and it sounds like the girlfriend from the party, who called him a pig, is besties with Alan's sister. Maybe Alan's sister has been complaining to her friend about Alan and the sister and her friend are just using this situation to try and shame him into correcting his eating issues. He doesn't mention the rest of the friend group... so they aren't necessarily shitting on him, but it sounds like they also didn't defend him, so they really don't sound like great friends either way.
Kinda depends how many wings he brought he never said
these are textbook noon-chi (korean term) mishaps
@@Julie-jl2kk Wow, "nunchi" - haven't heard that term in awhile! (Lived in Mokpo for about 7 years.)
On the art resale thing: notice how OP didn’t actually tell their artist friend how they made triple what they paid, they told a friend who then told the artist. If OP was actually out to teach their friend a lesson like they claimed, wouldn’t OP be the one to say “see? Your art is worth way more” rather than hiding it?
Yeah if they actually wanted to help they’d have given the artist the money and perhaps connected them to the place for the opportunity to continue selling there themselves
I don't think OP was trying to hide it. If that was the case then why would OP tell their in common friends about ti knowing it would get back to the friend?
@@tsgrandma9837Hiding isn't the right word, but they certainly can't claim it was meant to be educational when that didn't make an effort to explain it to the artist.
Great point!
@@saiboogubut they did make an effort. They told them from the jump that they should charge more for their art. I have no clue how this was such a cut and dry case for everyone to call OP the asshole. Why the hell would the artist be entitled to ANY money after they sold their print to someone who outright told them they should be charging more for it?? I cannot imagine having the nerve to demand money from a friend for something they already paid me for. That’s crazy entitled behavior that I feel like gets completely overlooked here. Also, it’s PRINTS of their work, not originals. I feel like Shayne Chanse and Angela all missed that part, because they made it seem like this big emotional thing for OP to even sell it in the first place rather than keep it because they “made it with their own hands”. No they didn’t, they clearly make a bunch of copies to sell of all their originals.
The first story hits so close to home to me, me and my siblings are all different skin shades and have different eye colors, hair colors but were undoubtedly 100% siblings My poor mother was constantly accused by neighbors and teachers that she cheated on my father. It was so frustrating and alienating as a child to have your familys existence constantly scrutinized and invalidated.
That is so incredibly rude and insulting! The fact that people don't understand that genetics goes farther back than the parents is crazy. There are 23 chromosomal pairs in the human genome; skin color, eye color, hair color and texture, height and build, etc are also determined by more than just one pair each. Plus, just because a certain trait is dominant it doesn't mean that the child can't receive a recessive trait. Less likely, sure, but not impossible. Like Chanse's hazel eyes.
The more diverse that the parents' backgrounds are the more options are possible for the children. It could even be as far back or farther than a great grandparent of a different ethnicity or skin tone.
It's so shitty that people thought that a) it was something your mother would do, b) thought it was something to think or discuss, and c) something they felt was appropriate in the slightest to say to her or you guys. Sometimes the stupid and hurtful things that come out of some people's mouths astound me.
For Angela’s… analogy:
If you have a pool and your friend, who doesn’t have a pool, says they don’t think they can swim. If you, with a pool, say, “I can and you can too.” You then prove your point by kidnapping them and throwing them into your pool. They, in fact, can swim. Yes, you were correct, but how you proved your point without acknowledging both your relationship and the difference in your resources is what puts you in the wrong.
You can be correct, while still being in the wrong.
I was in fact picking up what she was putting down
it's best to invite them over to use your pool. just remember that it's okay if they don't want to swim and you shouldn't push them in
you are an absolute Monarch👑 for typing this out and explaining! ty!!!
Was thinking more of it being like, you have a floaty, lets go swimming in my pool. But then I buy the floaty, I go swimming, but I won’t let you swim in my pool.
I, uh, I could use a pincite/timestamp...

It breaks my heart that people were calling the pizza mom an asshole. I was blessed with parents that were silly people and would cut jokes with me or my friends or do funny things. To be honest, it was only cringe in the moment and then we'd forget it by the next day. But when my parents passed away, those moments were what my friends told me they thought were the coolest. Those moments were what my friends loved about my parents, and something I loved too.
I'm so with you. My relationship with my parents is very different from yours, but even when my mom made cringey jokes, it was never that big of a deal. Calling her an asshole for being goofy is too much, it's a parent's job to be cringe; it's proof they're paying attention in their weird, out-of-touch way.
My relationship with my parents was toxic as hell when I was a teen. I would give a leg to have these kinds of memories with them. Because now even at 26, the strain is still there.
I recon the people who said she was the ahole are still teenagers themselves, when you are a teenager embarrassment sounds like the worst thing in the world but actually no one will remember that and she’ll find it funny
It's not cool to do that to a sixteen year old girl.
being a teenager is hard and feeling embarrassed is hard. i think things like that are fine in private and in front of family, but most teenagers do not want their friends and family to mingle like that. friendships are fickle in teen years. that's when you're really discovering who you are and who you want around you, and anything that feels even slightly like rejection can sting. as a parent, you can still make happy memories with your kids without stepping on their 'turf' so to speak.
I really loved every point Angela made with the sandwich story. Eating with people and feeding yourself is very personal and can be difficult. As someone with severe food anxiety, I appreciated it a lot.
Agreed. Grew up binging in private and never eating in public…not even my own birthday cake.
Fr the amount of empathy from all three of them in this video is awesome
Got subtly shamed about my weight and how much I eat/what I liked to eat growing up, I’m still trying to have a normal relationship with food and not like... hide food in my bedroom as someone with my own space to safely eat, not eat defensively bc I was used to people taking food away.
44:22 I don’t have a penis, but I disagree with the smosh men here; it’s *not* complicated at all. He was hurt. His feelings are valid. If it’s something he’s been insecure about, it’s ok to feel bad about it. He wasn’t mad, he was just honest about it hurting him a bit. Not complicated at all, it hurt him, he wasn’t blowing it out of proportion. It was a mistake, but saying he blew it out of proportion was the real asshole move. It’s good that he lets her know that it felt bad, and he wasn’t even mad. She did something wrong. It’s not relationship ending, but she was wrong. Especially for saying he overreacted. She should not do that again, and maybe find a way to set the record straight in a way that seems natural and not forced, like subtly bring up in another game or something that it *is* a grower. And maybe show a tiny bit of empathy. We as women won’t understand what it’s like exactly, but we all have things like that we’re insecure about, so act in a way you wish someone would act about your insecurity.
Edit; I’m on strong painkillers, so I know the comment is a bit all over the place, and I forgot some words so I didn’t get it across how I wanted, but I think most people can understand -ish what I mean
Absolutely. I was kind of saying the same thing with that one. It's not that complicated, because she shouldn't have made the joke in company (he's apparently fine with it in private), and definitely shouldn't have doubled down by saying he's overreacting. Since body image issues are pretty ubiquitous, she should have known that joking about a source of her partner's insecurity would not go well.
And you were pretty coherent lol would never have assumed you were on painkillers
It doesn't even matter what it's about, when your partner tells you "I don't like when people joke about this thing I'm insecure about" and then you joke about that thing they are insecure about you're an ass for it. It's as straightforward as it gets.
THANK GOD SOMEONE ELSE IS SAYING THIS
Thank you! I felt like I was going crazy when they were saying it’s complicated. No it’s not! I would never make a joke about someone’s body in a group of people much less my partners body who I love and care for. It’s completely uncalled for and I imagine was pretty humiliating for him. I don’t think it’s a relationship ender necessarily but it was in very bad taste and she needs to really try to make it up to him
The story about Alan always upsets me. His "friends" are the assholes in that story. I feel so bad for him. Up front he made a point of saying he thought he had a problem, meaning his eating habits and weight are already weighing him down and making him upset. Then to turn around and have people you thought cared about you stomp on you while you're already feeling low, over food no less, is insane to me. You should NEVER be denied food, you should never be punished for eating or have food used as a punishment/weapon against you, and to feel like you are compelled to "make this up to them" by buying more food is insane after they neglected to eat it for it that long. I really hope Alan has a better support system now.
yeah and like even if he was the asshole in the situation, it’s the friends’ responsibility to just casually communicate to him to not do something like it next time. that’s all they had to do, but they chose to rub it in his face and treat it like a crime. and he even offered to buy another sandwich and apologized, that’s such a good way to handle it
to shame anyone about food/eating is so weird! Especially when he made a point to say he was hungry, his body was telling him it needed food and then he was punished for that. Awful! I'm just glad Angela/Chanse/commenters are as incensed as I was lol
@@shay5479 I agree completely. They handled the situation in one of the most hurtful ways they could have.
@@leelee353 I've always had the mindset "Eat your fill, as long as everyone gets at least 1 serving." The fact that he offered to buy more food but they didn't want to accept it because it wasn't from a 'local shop' seems like a jab as well.
i felt bad for him at first but the more you dive into the actual post, he very much seems like the a-hole. All in all, everyone is an a-hole in this story. I recommend reading through the actual reddit post. Someone there says "Letting it sit for an hour doesn't mean anything. Others might have just been waiting to grab it after the fight (you said in a comment you polished it off during the fight) The wings prove the point. You were bummed that others ate all the wings and you didn't get a chance to have any - just like the people complaining about the sandwich they brought".

No but when she mentioned UofM, I squealed a little because the theatre group she's apart of (Team Starkid) started at UofM 😂😂
@@rachelhesketh94when did she mention u of m?
@@davie9944 1:03:53 😀
I love how the entire scene was read to her, she heard the monologue, volunteered than complained about it making no sense and not understanding the context. That’s the kind of confidence to believe in 9/11/11 conspiracies.
About the art story: if I’m buying art from a cafe I would be fully expecting to be purchasing directly from the artist. I would feel extremely cheated if I knew my money went to some dealer than the artist directly
That shouldn't be relevant. The coffee shop made a purchase and it's their property. Now they can sell to whoever they like for whatever price they choose.
This is usually how cafe wall art works. It's not like the artist just hangs the prints in a shop and the shop doesn't get their back scratched.
@@emporioalnino4670she doesn't do it anymore because she got involved in other ventures, but there was one lady who sold her art through a bar that I go to open mics at. She made all of the profit from it, and would host painting sessions there to help them make some money as well. Not exactly the same as what you're saying doesn't happen, but just saying these situations work best when the artist and the venue can work together to mutually benefit each other.
Also, didn't OP buy the paintings herself, and then ask to display them? I don't think the coffee shop necessarily bought the pieces themselves
It really doesn’t matter. She bought them and they were hers now. She can resell them if she wants. As long as she’s not selling it as if it she was the artist or anything like that it doesn’t matter
Also the OP purchased their art and resold the art they now owned. And the friend just expected ALL the money they resold it for?
I also don't agree. OP told her upfront that the price was to low. If she paid the normal price (and not a discounted price because she was a friend) than she should do with it wat she wants. She took a risk on that she was right.
The only part she might be the Ahole for, is that she did not tell her friend directly after. She only called it a lessonfee when she found out.
The people saying the pizza mom was trying to "be her kid's friend, stop trying to be a hip mom" are taking it WAY too seriously. That woman was fully aware it was NOT hip lol, that was the whole point. She's just being silly.
Like, I WISH my mom would've been like this as a teen. Sure, I might've cringed in the moment, but now as an adult I could look back at those memories and think about how much my mom cared that she tried to give me and my friends something to laugh about.
I think it depends on how the mom is behind closed doors, I have friends who’s parents seem really funny/friendly when we come over but that seem to be total assholes when they’re alone.
Ikr? I'm a 16 year old and I would find that absolutely hilarious. The people saying mean stuff would probably be incredibly boring parents lol
I wish my mom would have done this instead of mentally and verbally abusing me my whole life.

This! And not even behind his back! That girl called him a pig TO HIS FACE and the other "friends" backed her up?

That assumes your friend didn’t offer you access to their pool. We don’t have that detail or not. There’s missing information about the “pool” (the cafe)

@@Crit_Cat_82 Combing through the comics they were asked multiple times if they offered the gallery space up and they said they never offered it. So nah.
My brain just tried to make sense of this too hard that I completely lost the analogy.
@@day9811im guessing what angela and this commenter meant is,
if your friend with a pool is saying “oh, go swimming everyday if you like it” and you dont have a pool, so you explain that its hard for you to swim everyday, and then they try and prove it to you (that you can) by swimming in their pool everyday, they are speaking & proving their point from a privileged position. they have a pool, of course its easy for them to swim everyday. just like in the story, its easy for the asshole to sell the art because they work and have access to an art gallery, so of course its easy for them to sell the art higher, they already have ties to something the artist doesnt have.
Chance could not handle the 💩 football story. His little “Shayne 🤚🏼 “ cracked me up
I just want to talk about part of someone's comment about Allan's food. They ate all of his food quickly and didn't leave a single wing for him, and he was gracious about it. He actually waited an hour and a half, cause he said he waited an hour and then another half hour, and then ate it, and offered to get more when they were extremely rude, even though they had other food. That just seems so messed up to me
It really reads like they were just waiting for him to slip up in any way to bully him, seems to me they are Allan's twin sister friends and not his sadly.
yeah, the absolute lack of empathy for the guy is insane to me
the understanding when I hang out with other people is that if there is food on the table, it's up for grabs for anyone regardless of portion. I couldn't imagine food sitting on the table for over an hour
Yeah, my general impression of the situation was that they had a "stereotypically mainstream American" party, with more drinks than food. Allan would be right at home at a Filipino party, where it's an unspoken obligation to have too much food, up to the point where not only everyone has had their fill 2x over, they have to bring a couple boxes home to take home for their families or leftovers for the next couple of days (at least).
If any Filipino party were stingy (and people would gossip incessantly about it), word would get around so quickly that any family in their right mind would note to avoid that family for their next party...
literally an hour and a half is plenty of time to wait for another portion, i’ve never been to watch party where the food lasted more than an hour or 2. They honestly should’ve had more food if they knew they had a guy with a massive appetite coming
@@NeODeLeuXI second this opinion, it just seemed like at least one person was waiting for an opportunity to talk down to him. He was beyond nice about everything and tried to remedy the situation the best he could, but it didn’t sound like they cared and just wanted to further his mental turmoil

Reddit calling the Pizza mom an asshole for trying to be a friend to her daughter, even if cringy, is the most Reddit thing in this whole episode.

I honestly didn't think she's the AH. She probably is to her daughter but I personally would rather have a mom like that than my own narcissistic mom. She's able to make fun of herself and be silly around people. That's healthy. And seems like someone I could go to with my problems
It's almost like most of Reddit has the mental maturity of a 16yo lol
Yeah I read through the comments over there and it is *WILD*. Like I know a place that's entirely dedicated to judging whether or not people are assholes is going to draw a very... particular crowd of regulars, but damn. They're acting like a singular moment of silliness means that she can never be a parent to her daughter.
my mom was like this and while it was embarrassing, all my friends always talked ab how much they loved my mom and how legendary she was. And seeing some of THEIR households? I'd take my fun embarrassing mom over a strict one who didn't care about cheering me up ANY DAY.
For the last story I imagine that she had this endless scream of shock going on in her head, mom texts her “what’s up?” And she just lets it out the only way she can that moment. Her wording didn’t seem like she was taking out anger on the mother more like “THE WORLD HAS ENDED?? Do you know what it’s like when the world has ended?!? You raised a sociopathic son that just ENDED EVERYHING”

The story about the guy eating the sandwich kinda hit me hard lol. I've struggled with body image issues for a long time and can't even begin to imagine how I'd react emotionally if someone said those things to me. On one hand, he probably should've asked if he could eat the remaining pieces but, on the other hand, the way they blew up in his face about it kind of broke my heart. He even acknowledged it himself at the beginning of the story saying that he's "the token fat guy". It just feels like the girl who blew up on him had an intrinsic sense of that and took that as an opportunity to (consciously or unconsciously) berate him and demean him. it just hurts to hear about something like that with little to no regard for any other factors that might have led him to do that.
I hope Alan found better friends. He was already embarrassed in front of all of them, there was no need for the group to msg him the next day further berating him.
He sounded so nice. And ffs, if you want food GRAB IT, it's a buffet style thing, you can't be mad after food sat there for an hour and someone eventually ate it
Not to mention he even offered to buy more subs and pizza to make up for it
I feel like you guys don't know a person like this. It's so annoying when they eat more of the food that they should. If we are 5 people and there are like 20 pastries than you eat 4 pastries. No more. You HAVEA TO ASK if you wanna eat more. It's just being polite ya know. Like i don't think the guy is a massive asshole but come on man learn some manners
@@Vi_Vi_1 As an experienced overnighter, I know the treats will eventually run out, so you gotta make the call for them. "Hey, let me have that last chocolate candy I haven't had them yet" Rather than not eating and then starting to call my friends pigs when they ate my favs.
I've heard this story several times, and I think I finally put my finger on why his friends clearly seem like the asshole to me here.
There is one thing that you could maaaybe reasonably criticize Alan for, which is being inconsiderate of the fact that other people might want the food. You could also argue he was considerate by bringing food for everyone and also waiting for an hour before getting more, but there's at least some merit to the idea that eating more than your "fair share" is inconsiderate.
But once Alan instantly acknowledges that he messed up, apologizes profusely, and offers to go get food to replace the food he ate, he's clearly shown that he regrets his possible lack of consideration and is trying to be considerate by doing anything he can to rectify the situation. If you continue to berate him as a pig beyond that without any regard for his feelings, then you're saying the problem wasn't that he was inconsiderate of you; you just don't like his eating habits and his body, and you have decided to make your opinion his problem. At that point, I feel pretty comfortable saying those "friends" are the assholes, and they can fuck off.
The COD one really erks me. As a mom of 2 kids that need constant hands on help i dont feel it trumps my husbands needs. The best thing we have done for our marriage is give EVERYONES needs time. It would be hard on christmas, but its his birthday and the fact is its importsnt to HIM. Then discuss the whole day, when and where everyone is, what the wife needs him to do before he starts playing, and the expectation if the wife needs his help. If you truly respect each others and the needs of each other, you will make room at the table. This is true before this actual incident! If he respects her needs before, she would be more likely to not put her foot down. If he saw her needs and made time for her to have alone time, she may have been way more supportive. If she saw his needs for connection and the load that dads carry, she can meet him half way.
I may get some heat for this but i will die on the hill of respect each others needs in a marriage. I too often see one or the other being neglected in the name of "well my needs arent being met".
100% the truth. I've been married over 23 years. A good marriage and a happy family are the result of communication *and* supporting each other. This requires giving each other alone time and encouraging them to spend time with their friends.
He can be there on Christmas Eve and Christmas morning, then she can watch the kids while he celebrates his birthday with his friends. No one needs to abandon their family in order to play a video game for a few hours.
What if her birthday was January 1st and she wanted a spa day with her lady friends? She could be with the family on New Year's Eve, and he could babysit while she spends time with her friends. Right? People would flip if her husband said "No, you can't arrange to spend time with your friends. I need you at home just in case I need to take the trash out."
Yet the arguments given here were equally as ridiculous. What if she needs his help cleaning up the wrapping paper or chopping onions? Are you kidding? He can still do these things! Or better yet, clean up tomorrow, and keep the meal simple.
Literally. It’s always, and especially in this from Shayne, family over yourself. Which is fine but self negligence is a complete self destruction. Self care is just as important as family care.

Poor Allan, he offered to buy more food, but they didn't care about the food. He indeed should have communicated about it but FOOD IS THERE TO BE EATEN!!!!!! They knew he eaten the food. Poor guy 😞
Agreed. I don't think Allan should have eaten as much as he did without communicating it as a rule of basic social etiquette. There's a chance the hosts were looking forward to having extra for the following day, only to find out the hard way that at least half of it had been eaten by a single person. However, clearly people noticed and also didn't say anything--people that were sniffing out blood and waiting for an opportunity to pounce. Even after his so-called friends berated him and dog piled, he did the right thing: he offered to pay them back for it after it was made clear he wasn't meant to eat as much as he did, they said no, and that was that.
I hope he finds better friends who don't put him down. They all just sound like pretty privilege brats who were looking for a reason to jump on the big guy.
"But you can't buy more food, that sandwich was custom made"
BUT HE CAN STILL GET MORE FOOD WHAT DOES THAT HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH IT?! that has no baring on him buying pizza to make up for it, it's just an excuse to be mad at him
Snooze, you lose... Food it there to be eaten.
with the sandwich story, i think it’s obvious from the way they reacted that he was afraid to ask if he could eat more. he probably knew they would shame him for pigging out. being a fat guy, i know how it feels to be self-conscious about how much i eat. i think he needs new friends
Exactly what I was thinking
na he needs to be respectful. How fucking rude.
Fellow fat guy here. Hard disagree here, enabling his unhealthy behaviour would make them bad friends. He didn’t just eat a little bit extra. He ate an insane amount of food. He’s got a problem.
@@leastselfawarepotassium Fat girl here. Never once has someone commenting on my eating habits made them healthier. They make eating issues worse and more complicated. The world would be a better place if everyone minded their business.
he was afraid to ask for more because he wanted to eat it all. there was three feet of sandwich left and he couldve easily taken like 6 inches when he felt hungry but he waited and waited so that he could eat the whole thing. he took a foot and a half at a time and didnt bother asking if he could finish it because he wanted it for himself
The Christmas story, he said he NEVER celebrates his birthday. Parents who have a birthday on other days ask for peace and quiet. My mom asks for a clean house. There is nothing wrong with him wanting a couple hours to do something he loves he doesn’t get to experience often. In my house we celebrate in little things like a dinner we choose, who we spend it with, things we don’t have to do that usually expected of us. There is nothing wrong or selfish about what he’s asking,
I agree! I think that, though core memories can be made on holidays, core memories can be made on any day. I think that the guy should be able to celebrate his birthday. The family could even have their own Christmas celebration on another day, especially since the kids are so young! Apparently, Jesus was born in June, anyway! I really didn't like hearing that the wife said she wanted to throw his X-Box, or joy!, out of the window! The guy gets to celebrate his birthday and spend time with his friends!
The penis story makes me really upset, I'm a woman but I'm very insecure about my body and if my boyfriend said something like "my girlfriends tits/ass" on that card it'd cause me a lot of distress because, in my eyes, if you're with someone you're not supposed to see any flaws in them physically. Of course I treat my man with the same respect. We would never make fun of eachothers bodies.
Yeah. It's not complicated like they were saying. He expressed vulnerability about that with her and she still made fun of it. Making fun of it privately after that is bad enough to earn the AH status for me and he didn't complain about that (so no need for him to develop a thicker skin). She literally went to a group that she knew already teased him about it and he hated it and did it PUBLICALLY. His response was rational, calm and he waited until he was alone with her. He is being so mature. It isn't weak to express a boundary or express when someone has crossed it. She's so gross for posting this on reddit too.
Who does that to someone they claim to love and then posts it for even more notoriety on the internet while saying he overreacted? Disgusting behavior.
Yeah, I used to think it was funny how guys got insecure about penis size, but a few years ago it twigged to me that this is a *real* insecurity for some guys, and it's no different from a woman worrying about saggy boobs or something like that. Body image issues matter even if the topic is something that seems silly to some people.
She should’ve immediately yelled out “I mean when it’s soft!!”
@@ettinakitten5047 the fact you and other ppl probably treat it so casually and as a joke is the issue. The issue of body shaming has been brought up a lot in recent years and yet women and men think its fine to make fun of dick sizes. For guys it is a serious insecurity, i mean its the pinnacle of manhood, and societally speaking has always been a point of competition or ‘virility’ and a whole host of masculine concerns. And i wouldnt be surprised that a lot of men are likely shamed or mocked, in private, about their size, let alone in public, becuz its not made a taboo at all.
I find it strange that already from the get-go she’s kind of judging his body. I mean seriously she HAD TO bring up that he’s 7 inches and then say ‘its not huge or anything’, i mean come on. So strange, she thinks so lightly of the issue as if its crazy that someone could be insecure about body shaming. No way in hell could he get away with any body shaming about her, but when its his penis, probably the biggest source of physical insecurity to a man, its just some light joke he takes as an overreaction??
The bf in the penis story was super chill - went with the joke at the party, then privately communicated his feelings to his gf when they went home and forgave her. I've read so many aita stories that have partners going off on one another for a joke or an accident so this was a breath of fresh air. I hope the gf makes it up to him.
idk bc it feels similar to me to stories where men have to be taught to have basic empathy for their GFs. why should a woman need to be taught or communicated with that you shouldn’t publicly or privately make fun of their boyfriends body? idk. people shouldnt need to be told to have basic empathy nor respect for their partners.
@@sweetembrace6706 oh to be clear I think the gf was in the wrong. But, something like this hadn't happened before, so they set a clear boundary and was super mature about it
@@jellyhappening1458I think she wasn't the asshole at first because she didn't think it'd hurt him, but going to Reddit to ask if he is blowing it out of proportion definitely makes her the asshole.
i thought the same!
@@DJKurohyep. And the comment she made about him possibly just blowing it out of proportion shows that she isn’t sorry about how she acted, she just felt bad for making her boyfriend upset (or more likely just felt bad about being called out on it and apologized)

Bro people were being so harsh towards the mom in the second story :( when I was 16, my mom, non-ironically, told me to have "fat dick spirit" before going to school with a toothy smile on her face, and I laughed my ass off. Moms are people too!
That’s so funny. But also sweet
did she say it loudly in front of all your friends?
It’s the way if my mom did that I would say yea I will and for the mom in the story I would start twerking too it’s a moment with your mom and heys she being funny it’s a good story to laugh with your friends in the future
Agreed. I understand the daughter for being mortified, but I feel like this is a story she'll laugh at when she's older. If the mom is usually the 'fun, cool mom' then this is normal for their family and I can believe she had good intentions, so NTA, but if she usually doesn't do this then it seems like she was intentionally embarassing her daughter in which case YTA.
fr, saying "don't be a friend to ur children" is so messed up. u can be a good parent and a good friend to ur kids at the same time ☹️
Petition for Alan to be invited to every single party in the future and for him to have a friend group who won’t trash him for being polite 🫡🙋🏻♂️ he’s a legend that deserves better 40:56

Only if the petition is also a signup sheet to also become his friend! He sounds so nice, to be honest!
One time my little brother was playing in the garden and he broke the lawn gnome and I told him they’re gonna come for revenge, I bought 10 garden gnomes, placed one outside his window, three in the backyard and the rest outside his bedroom door, as soon as he saw the lawn gnome peeping through his window all hell broke loose.
that’s kind of evil but so hilarious
"Are you new to life?" that's such a raw insult 😂😂
it's the fact that Alan even calls himself the "token" friend that really sets the scene for his place in the "friend"group... i would not be surprised if the others think that they are being samaritans for "allowing" him to be a part of the group.... feels so off
I feel like a lot of the insecurities in the post are things his friends said to him.
THIS!
Oh my god, Angela and Chanse talking about guests eating at a dinner party needs to get turned into characters. They're like the positive version of the balcony, Muppets Statler & Waldorf.
I love the way they work off each other. Like in Amanda’s funeral
Holy crap, that's EXACTLY who they portray... you nailed it with Statlor and Waldorf.
With Allen eating the sandwich too, one of two things happened when the hostess asked where the sandwich went: either they all watched him eat it and said nothing, then proceeded to angrily mock him for eating it when they could've stopped him earlier, or, everyone was unaware of the sandwich being eaten and when she asked where it went, they IMMEDIATELY assumed he ate the whole thing instead of assuming the rest of the guests ate it. Both of which are messed up because either they watched and waited for him to walk into a trap, or they have this predetermined image in their head of "of course it's Allen that ate the whole thing."
I'm not a parent. But isn't that the second job of a parent?
1. Your child's well being
2. Embarrass them in front of their friends
I hope we're getting paranormal reddit stories next month for Halloween.

that was be awesome
No sleep would be fun!
I hope they do at least something similar to what I commented on the reddit stories video from 3 weeks ago 🤞 the guests are cuddled up in their blankets listening to Shayne read spooky stories. 👻
Commenting on this so it gets a boost! I hope Smosh sees this.
Poor Allen, seems like a sweet guy and a good friend. I personally don’t understand why everyone was so upset.
so true!! it's like everyone was just waiting to pounce on him 😢
This is pretty textbook treatment of a fat person in today's society. The dude offered to replace it, apologized, felt bad, and tried to talk to them about it and still got shit on. He is very aware of the situation and felt bad. I feel for him. 😔
Yeah even if he was in the wrong, he owned up to it and offered to get more food so I would have called it even at that point. And calling someone a pig is super mean :(
I think they were waiting for a time to put him down about his body and that was it, considering how he wrote the story the people in his life HAVE to know how he sees himself
Because he didn't make it known to everyone he was eating the rest of the sandwich and someone wanted more of the sandwich. Common courtesy at a party is if you are going to eat the rest of something you ask everyone if anyone wanted some more of it before you finish it.
all three of them had the greatest reactions to the last story, especially at 1:01:38 - 1:01:40. Chanse putting his hand up. Angela looking down in open-mouthed disbelief. Shayne looking directly ahead at us as if to say "are you hearing this". Pure art
LMFAOOO i JUST read your comment and proceeded to see their reaction! OH MY GOD PRICELESS
having your birthday on or near a major holiday will give you such a complex, honestly. it takes a lot of time and effort to ignore how inferior it can make you feel.
The Sandwich story: as a large guy myself, SURE I can acknowledge that fact, and even make it seem like a super casual observation and that I’m “clearly” cool with it. I’m not. I hear myself in “Alan’s” voice.
ANYTIME family/friends get together and put out a spread, I INTENTIONALLY “head to the bathroom” or do something that puts me in a situation where I’m ALWAYS last in line. I’m TERRIFIED of taking more than my share and potentially being shamed. I feel bad for Alan, but I DO see the point (but not the execution) of the friend’s criticism.
Honestly same. I’ve seen skinnier people eat more than someone of my size and they’re usually never told anything, but I watch how much I eat (which for the record because of having this kind of mindset I don’t eat much on a regular day) and yet I’m still on the bigger side. If I consume more that what others expect of me I’m easily called out and it’s frustrating.
i personally think its truly just a communication issue, but i feel like theres something deeper we arent seeing because his “friends” seen him eating it and yet didnt think to say “hey can u save some for us” like thats weird as hell to me
Also, bigger people have bigger stomachs and actually need more food.
😞🫂
I think that's a good way of saying that. The point the friends had was valid, but the execution was poor. The issue I have with the friends in Alan's story was how they ganged up on him and fat shamed him, and when he tried to reconcile, they just didn't let him. They could've been more civil about it because they had a good point, but their execution was over the top
Imagine how poop ball's mom must have felt if this was also her first time realizing what kind of lunatic her son is.
I want to know what she said back
What do you even do in a situation like that?
The sandwich story got me so angry. It is extremely rude for that host to humiliate a guest and friend the way she did him. As a host, I would just go get some extra food, and maybe if it happened again, I'd discuss it privately. Even if he is completely in the wrong, so are they. I'd find different friends if I were him.
amen!
FR HE OFFERED TO BRING MORE FOOD he waited over an hour shit i would’ve finished it all atp 😭😭
period girl
Agreed. This girlfriend really needed to ask herself
1. Would i be this angry if a skinny person had eaten the sandwich?
2. What exactly is it that i want this guy to do to make it right (and "sit in the corner and rot" is not an acceptable answer)?
3. Is this *really* a discussion we need to have right now in front of a crowd of friends?
To me, this seems very much like the issue wasn't that he took a portion of the sandwich that she wanted, but that he was "too hungry" and doing too much to remind them of his fatness. I get the sense that this one sandwich was not the issue, it's something much older.
For real he seemed to take every consideration other than announcing to the room at large that he was planning on finishing the sandwich, and they're treating him like No Face gobbling up all the employees at the bath house.
That story where they made fun of the dudes size was so sad because she could have solved that whole insecurity issue for him by saying something like “You think it’s small?”
And backing him up but she just piled on him too. Mens size is like a woman’s size, you gotta be careful talking about it
The problem is that the prompt that she used his size in was “something that’s small”. She shouldn’t have made the joke, but I do agree that she could have done some damage control, even by saying “haha I was joking around. he’s definitely a grower” or like Shayne said “we call it Bruce Banner cause it turns into the Hulk”
The penis story is not complicated. She’s making fun of him and he told her not to and she said that he was overreacting and posted this story publicly.
yeah that was super cut and dry. hope that was only time she did anything like that, or he left
Yeah, don't make fun of people's bodies! It's really rude of her to be asking if the boyfriend was being extra because all he did was confide in her about his feelings. If someone's showing you that you stepped on their boundaries, then it's a done deal. You should take that and apologize and never do it again.
Yeah, body shaming is never okay. Unless you're joking about yourself, you shouldn't do it, because it always comes off as cruel and inconsiderate. Anyone who would do something like this is not someone you should be with because they are not someone you can be safely vulnerable with.
Also .. she seemingly made up afterwards, THEN WENT TO REDDIT to complain ?? Makes her apology feel like a lie. Idk man I think he's better off without her.
Yea didn't really like their take on that, they did this last time too where they didn't want to say she was an ahole and then proceeds to make fun of his insecurity. If he made a joke about her breasts, I doubt they would say the same that she can't take a joke.
Y'all should get Hank Green on for reddit stories. It would be ICONIC
Oh my god please do this!!
I think I would cry. Hank is my childhood hero it would make my inner 13 year old self healed, I think😂
But make it about anything but science, my guy needs a rest
And John too! I’d love the brotherly banter
Yeah I think he's maybe a little busy though lol
For the last story, I'd be worried for OP's safety. If crazy boyfriend reacted that strongly to kids knocking a ball on his lawn, he's probably going to act EVEN CRAZIER when he find out OP wiped and gave away his PS4. I hope she gets a restraining order or security or something.
Interesting to me how nobody is saying he might have had a mental episode. If he's normally chill and normal and this was so sudden and out of nowhere it very well could have been an unknown disorder or a sudden psychotic break.
I thought she just gave away his games to the kids, not the actual PS4?
@@TFGeodeForce No she wiped the games and gave them the PS4 (which she said she had bought).
I kind of wonder if he’s got a frontal lobe brain tumor to suddenly start overreacting so badly…but yeah, definitely not safe for her.
@@BusinessSkrub7 months is not too long to know someone for real at all. he could easily just be an asshole.not eveyone who snaps is mentally ill either.
Sorry, but the WAP mom sounds freaking AWESOME to me! Her daughter is just being overly uptight because she's still figuring herself out and has fragile self esteem.
When you hear about all the crazy stuff moms commonly do to emotionally scar their kids, this mom seems like a dream mom compared to those others.
I think her daughter is just at an age where she will always be mortified by anything her mom does, but hopefully she'll grow out of that soon.
Fun fact: Twins, triplets, etc can in fact have different fathers (presuming they are not identical). It’s called heteropaternal superfecundation. Super rare though.
Yeah as in so rare it's not worth asking about lol
It's also interesting that this is a phenomenon that occurs more often in other mammals like dogs for example.
@@rangasfireis that like a thing about the genetics in the animal or is it about the fact that they have litters/normally have more than one offspring at one time
@@rangasfirei mean. The litter my dog was from had obvious multiple fathers
Two were big huge dark brown ones, one was like. A fluffy scruffy lab type(?) and three were small and orange-brown and white like the mom
(Well one of the orange and white, my dog Walker, is a medium but the other two are like. Chihuahua size.)
Yeah like in American horror story season 1
the sandwich story will always make me mad because they all sat there and watched him and none of them told him to roll it back. they were probably all sitting there laughing at him and they didn't take any responsibility by calling him out. also calling him a pig was insane like if he's done this multiple times they should have had a conversation with him instead of letting these grievances build up.
Literally though, like they were just waiting for the opportunity to make fun of him.
And having the audacity to be angry with him for finishing the sandwich after they ate all his wings. They somehow saw nothing wrong with the person who brought the wings not getting any. I don’t care if he’s one person, they did the same thing to him, and got mad when they got a taste of their own medicine. That part really gets me. The hypocrisy.
I think as a friend, if you know your friend likes to eat, and eats more than otherpeople, when you throw a party, won’t you just sort of take that into consideration when buying food
it definitely feels like they where all bothered by him doing it yet let him do it i’m sure if they said hey alan save me a piece he’d have done that
It sounds like only one person was angry about it and she told his sisters. Also wings aren’t expensive. So him thinking his wings equal a sandwich is crazy. Some of those party subs are crazy expensive.
First story: I worked at a before/after school care program. There were two twins who were mixed: one twin had dark hair and brown eyes. The other had blonde hair and blue eyes. You could totally tell they were related regardless. Genetics are random af so…. Yes this girl was TOTALLY the AH
Yup. A friend and their brothers have such similar facial structure but such different colorings (one is all dark brown eyes, dark brown hair, darker skin; one is a pale, blue eyed blonde, one is in the middle with auburn hair) that i used to joke that their parents sat down with a catalog, picked a good option, and just got one in every color. A college friend came from a family of white people and got all the dark genes so people mistake her for all sorts of ethnicities. Genetics are weird, and it's none of your business how your friend's kids came to be.
My mom is a twin. When they were first born, my aunt had that thing some newborn babies get where their face is purple. By the time the babies came home it had started to fade, but her face still looked darker than my mother's. Their older brother told all the neighborhood kids that has mom had one white baby and one black baby, and they all wanted to come and see.
This. My partner has much lighter skin than both of his parents and his older sister, who appears to be an even mix of their parents' skin tones. His sister has 4 sons, the first is even lighter than my bf, the twins are the same shade as their dad (who is much darker, he's of Caribbean descent), and the youngest is right in between mom and dad. Genetics are so cool but very unpredictable! That girl is the AH, she needs to learn more about genetics before she assumes the mom is a cheater. You'd think she'd know her friend better.
My dad is black and my moms white so I’m mixed but my sister and brother aren’t so on my moms side I’m the actual black sheep
the sandwich story made me tear up a bit i can’t lie, i can’t imagine making your friend feel that bad over eating a little bit more than his share at a party when the food had just been sitting around and he had the courtesy to wait a while before eating more. it’s okay to set the boundary that he can’t eat ALL of the leftovers but to be so cruel to him over a sandwich when he brought food himself (that he didn’t get any of) and waited a good amount of time before deciding to eat the food SO IT DIDNT GO TO WASTE! alan would be welcome at my gatherings any day, i love cooking for people and if i had a whole spread set up and no one else was eating it i’d be pretty bummed as a host.
Chanse’s really quiet “Shayne” as he and Angela processed the last story. Looks like he just blacked out for a moment, you good buddy? 😂
Also somebody get Angela an Oscar for that performance.
Yeah that was insane.
That was too much. A ball covered in s***?
You call police for this type of behavior.

@@xX_YallaShoot_Xx Shayne is definitely their dad. *Maybe* Older cousin . Sibling vibes is like him and Noah
with the “grower, not a show-er” story, I feel like a point that was missed is also that the bf had confided in the gf that locker room talk made him uncomfortable and self-conscious. she was obviously in the wrong for joking about her bf’s body, that body part already being and insecurity of his, and doing it in front of of his friends. but even if it had been a moment where she wasn’t thinking and his friends hadn’t started joking around about it, if he brought up that he was hurt, he would still be valid because he had already talked to her about that insecurity
I’m glad you brought up the art one again because there was something I missed the first time. 23:20 word got around? So he didn’t even tell her he sold her art at a gallery. He said he kept the money as “payment for showing her what the art was worth”, but never actually intended to show her he flipped it for profit.
he definitely bragged about it to the wrong person how he used someone else’s art to make money, and they told the original artist.
Seriously, OP tried so hard to sound right but still the assholery shines through. If they were just trying to prove a point, they’d have only kept what they originally paid. OP did it for the cash and is trying to hide it behind a high horse.
Yo good point, that makes it less of a goal and more of a cover-your-ass excuse to say "showing her what it's worth"
He paid her for the art and now is supposed to pay the artist again??
@@acmeallpurpose4974 I agree with you, the OP BOUGHT the art piece and resold it, thats literally what ebay does, he isnt the asshole in my opinion
@@EclipseStudios970 he's an asshole only bc he didn't actually tell the artist he was going to re-sell the art for a higher price. that's shady AF and he deserves it. if he had been honest from the beginning, no, he wouldn't be the asshole. 🤷
I bet if Allan had an athletic build and ate a lot, they would have a different reaction. If they are really friends they should be able to have a conversation with him,
Another thing with the artist friend story, the artist was selling prints on a site! Buying those prints and then selling them (in a place where you could potentially do this repeatedly) is also a jerk thing to do when you could instead just go "yeah my friend made these, you can buy them on her site!" It proves that the op was more interested in money than the friend from the very beginning
Also selling them from a profit infringes fair use laws
yeah! and OP phrases it like it was about proving the point that they were underpricing the prints to show the artist they're missing out, but they didn't even directly tell the artist that the resold them or for how much, so it feels like it's more about OP seeing a chance to make money and kind of saying "okay if artist won't make that money I should."
@@theo_tr4aut No, you can resell art. You can't make copies but you can sell the piece you own, that's your property now. It's a jerk move but not breaking any laws
No, no, no. The point was to get the artist to see their worth and help them profit by showing what the market value could be. If all they did was redirect people to the website then there is no incentive for the artist to change their pricing.
OP was an asshole by not telling the artist beforehand and by not sharing the profits. Gallery prices are generally higher than online prices because the galleries usually take a cut for displaying the work, the crowd exposure is also different, and the art sold in galleries are usually one offs or limited runs which fetch higher prices due to the scarcity.
If I was op and I did that, I mean, I wouldn't because it's dishonest, but for sake of argument, I'd subtract what I paid initially including shipping, plus any other fees, and I would give the profit to the artist. That's how you make it fair. If the artist wants to provide OP with work to continue selling, then they can work out a seller's fee.
It's the initial lying by omission and not sharing the profits that are the real problem.
I don't agree at all. He tells her she could get way more for the prints, she says not interested, he ends up buying them and selling for a profit, and NOW she wants his money.
It was her choice to sell at a lowball price and it was his choice to do whatever he wanted with his property. He doesn't owe her shit.
As someone who has a Christmas Eve birthday, I totally get where the COD op is coming from. You just want your birthday to be YOURS. Everyone else gets their day, you just want yours. It’s hard having to ALWAYS balance and share
With the COD Christmas story, I agree with Shane that the magic of Christmas day ends around noon. He can spend the morning opening presents with his kids, then hop on COD with his boys in the afternoon after everything is cleaned up and the energy has died down. Maybe the wife wants to do a family dinner? Then play in the evening after the kids are asleep. There are ways to make both work.
His wife could have just gifted him his time with the boys as a birthday present. Clearly his birthday means a lot to him, because he never had any. He's being protective and I completely get that. And these friends are clearly very close to him, akin family.
If anything she sound a bit control-freakish to me. Threatened to throw his XBOX away, doesn't like his friends. Even that part that she doesn't want him helping in the kitchen plays into that
I kind of agree and kind of disagree. Don't Americans have christmas supper? How do you get a whole christmas dinner cooked for noon? (I guess it makes all those American christmas movies about being so stressed about the turkey make more sense lol).
Also I think we need some info on what COD with the boys means because some people think playing online games for 8-12 hours is a "normal" amount of time for a gaming session. And sure that's great if you have no other responsibilities but the dude does have other responsibilities.
@@new0news I think you're mixing up Christmas Eve dinner with Christmas day. Christmas Eve dinner happens on the 24th and Christmas is on the 25th, when you open the gifts in the morning, and nothing else happens usually, unless you have a Christmas lunch. He could've still played with his friends later in the afternoon. It sounds to me like she absolutely hates that he wants to spend some amount of time with his friends. That man is on a leash 24/7 (He also said that all he does is spend time with his kids, and that he hasn't seen his friends in 3 years, since his first child was born). My boyfriend of 10 years spends time playing online with his friends multiple times a week. It's the one things he loves to do and I think it's fair that he gets that alone time with the boys. That woman is cruel.
@@new0newsThe thing is though, just bc he's playing with the boys doesn't mean he can't take breaks. I play with friends and the guy friends I have would sometimes sit out some rounds to do things when they're asked to do stuff by people at home/partners. Also, idk about you but if my bf/husband asked to spend half of his bday with his friends, I'd let him. He's not asking for a whole week off of daddy duties and he mentioned that he's never hung out with those friends in years. Hell, if my partner hadn't seen a friend for even just a YEAR and only had ONE chance to do it bc of sched conflicts, I'd let him.
@@new0news every family is different. My family does a brunch. Even so, like I said, OP could play after dinner when everything is cleaned up and his kid is asleep. The part of Christmas that a 3yr old would really care about is the presents, and that part is usually done in the morning. So, OP spends the morning opening presents with his kid, then plays COD after while his kid plays with his gifts. OR maybe he and his wife could negotiate out a time frame or limit. Like, he plays until dinner, or for a set amount of hours, or he doesn't play until everything's been cleaned up, or until the kid's asleep, or whatever. They just need to communicate and work out a way for him to have a good day
Angela saying "surely they don't go back to work the day after Christmas" is a privilege I wish I had 😂
Lol literally was thinking "girl some of us work on christmas"
Yeah...I'm in childcare and parents already are tired of there kids that generally day after Christmas we're open. New years is different because half time people are still hung over or out of town.
*angela voice* hey heY HEY!! I WENT TO A PERFORMING ARTS SCHOOL!!
Right 😅 Cause I gotta work christmas night...
This isn't even the weirdest thing Angela has said, let's be honest.
Having Angela and Chanse on here together was a genius, the best chaotic, sibling like duo and having them here for a episode where Shayne reads stories from when they did it in twitch 😭🤚🏻
( and also I have a small obsession with Angela rn and I’m just so inlove with her contagious laugh 9:43 💀🤚🏻 )
they're a great duo, i love any videos they're in together! they bounce off each other so well
“The ps4 wasn’t yours to give away”
“Well the ball wasn’t his to shit on 🤷♂️”
“My wife and I agree I shouldn’t help in the kitchen” is feeling very weaponized incompetence to me.
its really giving that it was easier for her to do that stuff then try and get him to show up
I will say that I've met people who genuinely doesn't like people being there because they find it messy when the other person could genuinely help, but he can always always find something to do. Like help cleaning up. Not even in the kitchen, just around the house or helping to take care or his kids or something like damn.
Jesus, I can only imagine him sitting on a chair watching her do EVERYTHING, being super overwhelmed with preparing the food, the table, cleaning everything before and after and him just being like "mE and tHe bOis"
I haven’t reached that story yet but one time I set bacon on fire twice in a row so mutual kicking out of the kitchen is necessary for survival. Not always…but sometimes.
Not really. It’s the same with my husband. I don’t like him helping out in the kitchen. He’s just way too messy for me. He really really doesn’t do it on purpose. He sees me struggling sometimes and actually begs me to let him help but I happen to end up re-cleaning whatever he cleans because i just can’t stand it when things aren’t done a certain way. Sometimes when I’m too tired i do end up letting him clean up after me but i don’t enter the kitchen then and just deal with whatever the next day. And i don’t like him helping with the prep either, he’s can cut stuff up but i like to have them precise, I’m very particular about prepping as it affects the cooking process a lot. So it just works out easier for me emotionally if he doesn’t help, even though physically it might be a bit taxing
I always feel bad for the people who’s birthday falls on a gift Holiday. SO many people use that opportunity to screw them out of actually celebrating their birthday that I completely get him being all “screw Christmas, I’m celebrating my birthday with my friends”.
Like my birthday is just a few weeks after Christmas and I occasionally got hit with the “but you already got gifts during Christmas”, I can imagine what people who’s birthday lands on or near Christmas have to deal with. Haven’t run into many people who are actually happy their birthday is on Christmas.
Dude some years my birthday is on Thanksgiving, ( which I don't celebrate) but a lot of people are out of state when I try to have a party. Also my brothers is like two days before christmas so he has the same problem.
i was born on valentines day, and while its a small holiday, friends usually tell me they don't wanna celebrate my birthday cause they have significant others to see and that i should understand.
@@im-too-tired-for-this Bro got ultra friendzoned
This! I feel like people don’t realize or understand when your birthday falls close to a holiday like Christmas, it often does get undermined. He just wants his actual day of birth to be acknowledged a little!!
Yes! I'm an identical twin and was born 3 days before Christmas, so for a long time my birthday was never *mine*. It's really freeing when someone/people recognize the day (or part of it) as special for you specifically. It shows that they took the time to think of you and it's absolutely mind-blowing the first time it happens. I'll never stop being thankful when it does.
For the selling the friends art one; if was it really about proving a point, why did the artist have to find out about it from other friends? For OP to be proving a point about how much the artist could sell their prints for, wouldn't they have had to tell their "friend" about the sale?
So glad someone else mentioned this, it was all I could think of and I was surprised they didn’t bring it up
So MUCH yes. To me, this isn't teaching a friend a lesson, because otherwise the poster would have been much more upfront about it. This was about exploiting a friend's vulnerability (most artists' vulnerability, tbh, artists that are good at pricing their own work are fecking unicorns) for cash and then getting angry when people expect you to prioritize your friendship over your profits.
It kind of removes special friendship meaning when she charges her friend the exact same amount she would a random person. Then theres the part where if it was really about friendship, she would have chewed her friend out about selling the art... no, instead she demanded her friend give ALL the money for it. Seems to me like greed and not understanding how ownership works. She truly thinks that it's still HER art after it's sold. I'll ask what Shane asked... is $300 worth ending their friendship over? They didn't mention friendship.. they wanted MONEY. For the artists, it was money over friendship.
@@ryanthompson3737OP definitely chose money over friendship too, it's just kinda shitty how they went out of their way to go behind their friends back with the intention of profiting off them.
@@legoyoda9782 I agree except for the last part. If I'm PAYING for something, it will always be mine to do whatever with. There is ZERO sentimental or hippity dipity value because she's paying what everyone else paid for it. It can't be behind someone's back when there's already been a social contract written allowing that.
Chance’s very quiet but firm “Shayne.” during poop ball KILLED me
Next batch of Reddit stories I want to hear:
-pets
-service industry
-parenting
-In-laws
-peacocking gone wrong
-landlord+tenant+roommate
-roommate stories part 2
-wedding stories part 2
-child free people stories
Pets is a bad idea…
Child free makes parents go feral. It’s gross. Can’t do it cus they ruin it
ooooh peacocking could be really good
im sorry but peacocking? what in the world is that
@@tbomba9654I guess is trying to impress someone. From the titles I saw on Reddit
Angela is so right about the pizza story. At that age you just dont even want your friends around your mom but that probably wouldve gone well with family.
we were all brats, she'll get over it
@@friendlyneighborhoodhaterliterally! it wasn't ill intentioned at all
See, my friends and I would have thought that was hilarious! Wouldn’t have been embarrassed by it.
As someone who did have a loud and silly mom, with an older sister who would get embarrassed by her a lot, I learned early on to stop caring what my mom does and let her be. It’s so fun listening and revisiting these old stories.
Imagine in ten years when she gets to go "Hey mom, remember the wet ass pizza thing?" and gets to rib her for it. These kinds of harmless but memorable things might seem shitty in the moment, but end up being bonding moments.
50:49 the face of someone trying really hard not to judge and the face of someone so shocked they can’t place judgement yet 😂
I absolutely understand Angela's point. The art dealer leveraged their contacts and made money off of their friend when the friend didn't have the same ability and forum to sell their paintings.
Agreed. I think Shayne has a good suggestion where the guy could have said let me take some of your art and showcase it here and price it like I think it could sell and we'll share the profits. This guy seemed more interested in showing "how smart" he is about art and money rather than be a friend. It's the "helping" that's not really help.
I have a pool….I’m dead. 🤣😂🤣😂😍
I think the artist is as much of an asshole. Their first reaction to hearing that their friend sold their art for more was to demand the money? Why not step back and do what the 'dealer' did? Leverage their contacts. Try to get more of their art up in that shop and other similar places and offer a small cut to their friend for their help. Do what friends do and work together. The artist is clearly a bad salesperson, so leave the selling to someone else and focus on the art. It's a win-win. But no, $300 dollars also matters more than their friendship to the artist, like it does to the dealer. Both assholes.
@@CMIcoolio123ABC I think i would have asked the gallery friend if we could make a deal to put my art up there and share the profits.
They're both assholes. They are friends: one is an up and coming artist and one runs a coffee shop/gallery. Seems like they could both help eachother and make it a nice friendly thing.
@@CMIcoolio123ABCyeah no, they resold someone else's art when they have their own store. They stole money from their friend, the friend isn't an asshole for wanting what's theirs in the first place. They stole traffic from the friends store and overpriced it. There's a variety of reasons why it could have been priced that way, and if your friend is willing to break your boundaries and steal from you then they aren't a friend.
Growing up my family would go on a yearly vacation and my sister spent most of the time playing in the pool and such, no splashing or screaming but laughing and having fun swimming about. A woman (with her chair close to the pool) started complaining we were making noise so my mom cannonballed into the pool, splashing the woman. Being younger I was super shy and embarrassed but looking back all I can think of how funny and badass my mom was for doing that.
Was is kind of a rude move yeah, but we were just having some harmless summer fun. Like just let kids be kids
One of the rare “legendary asshole” moments 😅
Of course WAP mom was deemed the AH. If the running joke is reddit is composed of a bunch of teenagers😂
Every girl who has an active loving mom goes thru those rough teenage years and hopefully grow to be friends with their mom
Right? I'd be embarrassed in the moment, but that's SO funny! Genuinely that mom deserves some sort of award because that's great.
sorry y’all got knowingly humiliated in exchange for a loving parent… but my mom is just nice to me 😭
@@horizonkyun7203just saying, if your mom doesn’t embarrass you i think it means you don’t have a loving mother
@@horizonkyun7203 it's really not that bad, when I look back at my humiliating moments with my parents, I NEVER feel embarrassed, in fact I feel kinda bad/regret that I didn't laugh along and join in if I could have.
Im so grateful I never went through an “embarrassed of my parents” phase. They are both pretty goofy, but never went out of their way to embarrass me, and I could recognize that. Wet ass pizza mom reminds me a lot of my dad, and that story honestly made my day lol.
the sandwich story made me so sad. it reminded me of the worst depressive episode i have ever experienced when i was battling binge eating and food addiction. this is something i would've done. could allan have handled the situation a little better? probably, but he didn't deserve those disparaging comments. allan deserves so much better. HE IS A LEGEND.
