I wanted to mix up my content a little bit and I figured, what better way to use my unique brand of judgemental gaze than to read the top posts on one of the most entertaining subreddits out there: r/AmITheAsshole? Check it out!
"Get a life" should legit be one of the permitted answers on AITA
Many people are saying this

Same thing as YTA tho cause they’re being so rude about something that shouldn’t even bother them
“Go to therapy,” also, like for the ring doorbell one
That wedding story with the father and brother is literally just the meme of “I consent; I consent; isn’t there somebody you forgot to ask?”
Indeed, you must get consent from Reddit
Everyone must get consent from me. I just said it so it true
OP clearly just has an unspoken hatred for Beth and is somehow finding a way to bring it in her and her brother's relationship. So weird. Imagine being married to someone like that at 37 yuck
@@feelingveryattackedrn5750 read that as “imagine being married to someone who’s 37 yuck” lmao glad you’re not insane like my sanning reading comprehension
@@Michael-kp4bd that too, imagine being over the age of 22 💀
It’s not a React Court video without addressing the rumors of its demise first
this is genuinely my favorite bit
Also a bit about the overly complicated structure of relatives and exposition in the post
Spoiler: they are greatly exaggerated
AITA for created exaggerated rumors of React Court's demise?
Many people are saying this
Spray bottling a six year old for freaking out over a cookie they don't even like is kinda based.
I legit CACKLED
I mean, she said they're expensive. Just lie to the mom and say they're $12 a piece because they have truffle oil in them or something.
It is extremely funny, especially because it worked. That was surprising
Side note, I understand the meaning behind "my kid isn't some animal so you can't treat him that way", BUT... he is an animal. The adults are animals. I'm an animal, cuz humans are animals. This shit makes no sense.
He reacts to consequences in the same kinds of ways that other humans do. It should be up to the parent to teach him at some point that there are inevitable consequences when he acts like he is entitled to things that he isn't entitled to. The cookies are a damn privilege!
@@davidh9354 Psycho ass take wtf
@@davidh9354 It's cringe but I couldn't help my brain making a witty comeback when I got to the animal part to say "then don't raise him to be an animal."
The lord of the mannor is so unhinged I love it.
Man was possessed by the ghost of Mark Antony.
If you love this, there is a version of NL reading it edited with medieval music
I read the comments before watching the video and was eagerly awaiting it. Holy fuck that was godlike
And you just know that guy felt so vindicated after writing it too😂
It's actually, legitimately insane. What compelled that? I probably have a hernia from laughing so hard.
The lord of the manor comment on the dog post is the wildest thing I have ever listened to
It is genuine psycho shit and it being so upvoted is unironically all you need to know about the people in that sub.
@@cptKamina when he scrolled down and it said 6k upvotes I was dying
@@cptKamina one of the replies to that comment actually says "Thanks for typing it out so succinctly"
That dog story reply was legendary. I was howling. My man went OFF
This was a pretty not crazed and sane episode, I was not counting on any big reply to happen
@@greenoftreeblackofblue6625 As notherlion mentioned, posts like that and about relationships tend to have insane replies. Reddit people take some situations too personally
honestly the best post ever in aita
it was like a witches curse
That guy gave a whole ass climax-of-the-story final boss speech
6 thousand people upvoted the psycho fanfiction about how making your kid walk a dog will cause them to resent you for life.
Not to mention it will turn your son into a dog killer. 😂
you have to keep in mind that people aren’t supposed to upvote or downvote based on whether or not they agree, but based on if they find it funny or interesting or what have you
@@spagetti9271 I think that refers to the post itself rather than the comments
It also was 6000 redditors so the word people might stretch it
NL looking up what a rainbow baby is and then getting a little more serious/solemn followed by "...but they could also have psychic powers" made me laugh out loud
Missed opportunity to mention their tears also have random status effects
@@pedroff_1 I was hoping for this so badly
So you wanna say you literally cackled?
Well they could, rainbows have indigo on them don't they?
NL: "who doesn't like eating a meal at a restaurant?"
Chatter: "I don't"
NL: "Yeah, but this guys in a relationship"
that burn haha
That one sent me
It's one of those things which take a second to set in but when it does... hoo boy!
And then I just imagine that dude going to bed crying or something
the dog one fucking killed me. "Dylan's gonna kill the dog?" fucking christ
Yooooo at 39:20 he somehow stumbles onto a medieval bard who part times on reddit lmao
i love how as soon as he sees it he is visibly and audibly stunned "WHOOOOOOH"
If I meet a guy who brings ketchup to put on his sushi because “no one can tell me how to eat my food.” I would simply never reach out to that person ever again.
Right? Like say what you will about whether it's a crappy gift, it doesn't make bringing a whole ketchup bottle less unhinged.
I agree it's insane, but my mind still goes to the fact that these stories are always told by the person trying to make themselves sound reasonable and the other person unreasonable. The fact that she even included his response of "why are you getting me this gift that is obviously for you" makes me think "he likes sushi" doesn't mean he actually thinks sushi is great, he just gets it when she begrudgingly goes along with her plans or says "yeah it's pretty good" when she orders it and makes him try it and asks for his opinion.
Better yet, maybe he's just on the spectrum and she purposely left that out to make him sound less sympathetic.
Or he could legit be insane.
@@JD2jr. yeah I gotta agree with you, it sounds like he's maybe already annoyed about following along with her foodie stuff, he probably said as much more than once but OP didn't mention it. Then this birthday event is just that nonsense again but now it's supposed to be a gift.
It's the dude's frickin birthday. I think that's the one time you don't get to say "yeah but eating at nice restaurants is what normal people do!"
Like yeah it's hard for me to imagine thinking it sucks that bad, but to parallel, I'd be pretty annoyed if my wife spent $400 on an amazing meal and called it a birthday gift. That's not a damn gift. Get us a nice $60 meal as a non-wasteful treat and an actual gift, if you really want us to eat at the $400 place sometime sure, but it's not a damn birthday gift.
it just spells "yuck" to me. I'd also wont ever interact with that person ever again, let alone date.
ikr i hate people who make spite their whole personality
Man that one guys dog monologue and NLs reading was one of my favorite things this week. Beautiful.
AITA is currently my favorite NL segment. "Dylan you freaking nark!" sent me over the moon, I had to pause the video on that one. Honorable mention to "He said he likes sushi so she took him to a sushi restaurant. What does he only like sushi if it sucks and comes in a Styrofoam container?"
He doesn't like going to fancy restaurants. Sushi from a styrofoam container tastes exactly the same. Why is this a freaking problem for NL?
@@legion999 Why does he have to be so weird about it? We all need to eat, why be so picky about specifically wanting low quality food? It's extremely odd. We don't even know if he is easy to get gifts for.
@@legion999 It doesn't seem like his problem is that the guy likes shitty food, it's with the fact that he's made it into some wierd pride-point.
It's pretty normal to expect an adult to tolerate something they might not like.
I really hope the person who wrote that insane reply to the dog story got DMed by the OP and it just said "relax that post was fake."
"Omakase is a pretty specific type of sushi served in a specific way." One of the greatest quotes to show you have absolutely no idea what you are talking about.
How would you describe it in advance if the chef decides individually what and how to serve?
@@legion999 “omakase is an experience when the chef fully decides the course of the meal, generally done in sushi restaurants.” That’s the American version of it anyways. Omakase is not a type of sushi at all, but a way of ordering it. And it’s not served “in a specific way,” it’s just whatever the chef thinks is good and seasonal at the moment.
There's no way the dog walking post wasn't written by Dylan
"Do you think someone would do that?"
Or it's just a dad who does not get why his son does not like the dog after 7 months.
39:24 if you want to skip to the Jokerpost dramatic reading, lmao
Heinz Museum (which I’ve never heard of) is not in Allentown PA, but IS in Pittsburgh, PA. NL’s ability to not only name drop a somewhat small town in the US but also accurately place the state of the “Heinz Ketchup Museum” either based on his insane memory recall from his monstrous memory base OR incredible intuition about where that might be… just blows me away. Idk how he does it.
Edit: Heinz History Museum, not the “Heinz Ketchup Museum” - I got baited by a Google result from someone’s Tripadvisor post title, but to be fair they have an entire exhibit about the Ketchup company in there, so there’s that 😆
Billy Joel wrote a song about Allentown so maybe he has a connection to it via that? Regardless, NL has a crazy mind
@@hawxchampion523 That song is also about Bethlehem, PA not Allentown incidentally, because "Were living here in Bethlehem" doesn't flow as well apparently.
I was pogging because I live pretty close to Allentown. I live outside the town that made the flag for the Hoover Dam opening.
Allentown is actually top 3 biggest cities in pa tho
Also the Heinz history center is a history museum that’s sponsored by Heinz, not about Heinz. Sorry for blowing this up 1 month later but I’m from Pittsburgh don’t want people thinking we have a museum just to see the evolution of a company not even based here anymore lol
Bro the fact the INSANE comment on the dog story has 6600 thousand upvotes and people are not even reacting to it is crazy, what's wrong with redditors?!
Holy crap I didn't realize it had 6.6 million upvotes
@@jimmyredd oops, had it as 6.6 thousand then changed only the number and not the word, ah well.
This episode had such an unreal amount of reddit-type comments
Is this Lord of the manor in this romm with you right now?
Good thing Egg is super effective against reddit-type!
my favorite comments are the ones that start completely logical and turn into actual insanity in the last paragraph
In a world seemingly going more insane by the day, the egg is an unshakable beacon of sanity and reason.
I thing you said the egg is an unshakeable bacon of sanity and reason and I thought this was a meme I didn't understand
The sushi take was kind of an L, if the boyfriend is known to not like fine dining why is she giving him that as a birthday present? just do literally anything else
it has a solution, but egg could not rationally think about it, and instead just shit talked/whined like he usually does in react court, he becomes the most pedantic man of all time that just whines about everyone in every story. like at around 55:30 - 56:30 he is literally just smoking his own farts for about a minute straight whining
NL is the sanest man on the planet 80% of the time and then the most insane fuckin egg boi 20% of the time in these. Honestly I think that's a pretty good balance, the subreddit's users wish they were even close to 50% sane
@@GombySprangster It's just sad to see, as he used to be so rational - for the most part I don't watch react court, but if you watch anything from around 2016-2018 he was like a normal dude and even fun to watch.
Now he just whines literally all the time, or he'll stop and yell at some random dude in chat and be bitter at them, or whine
If only he applied that sanity an reason to his Dome Keeper tunnels.
The real creative writing is in the AITA comments
THE RUMORS!! I KNEW THEY COULDN'T HAVE BEEN TRUE!!! MY GOURD IS BEING POGGED LIKE THERE'S NO TOMORROW HOLY
I'm ignoring your comment and the rumours because they were not conveyed with perfect grammar and complete sentences befitting an intellect of my stature. Your mixing of Egg-isms with the english language is dramatically indicative of a bilingual deficit that I will expect you to correct before I allow you the satisfaction of being acknowledged for thoughts effectively conveyed mono a mono.
Does nobody else care for the sanctity of grammar anymore? Is punctuation a game that some of us have to diligently play while the rest of you ride our coattails through the dense foliage of human interaction? Must we carry your je ne sais quoi - a certain I don't know what- thusly henceforth and forth-hence and forthwith and with-forth for all of time? Grow up.
You have not passed my test. You are not acknowledged. Do better next time.
13:50 That sudden stink eye was so utterly unexpected I felt it was personally addressed to me and no one else. I had to pause and make sure I hadn't done anything wrong to upset NL
24:55 as an Aunt Vivian this moment rocked my world as the simulation fell apart.
"'No.' is a full sentence." does go hard though.
That legitimately good phrase in the middle of such an unhinged comment was so funny
@@Karawawa It's because it wasn't particularly unhinged until NL added the voice
@@Karawawa I guarantee the guy heard it elsewhere and just parroted it there though
"you gotta turn two keys at the same time and a Heinz bottle pops out and ruins your relationship?!"
The comedic genius of our time
52:50 you know chat was just going crazy at that one lmao
The ring doorbell story is incomprehensible to me, the person who wrote it should've realized half way through writing that post that they are insane.
that's the thing about mental illness, it's damn near impossible to actually recognize when you're in a psychosis. she can't be the insane one if her neighbor is the one trying to use xray cameras to spy on her apartment!
AITA for greatly exaggerating the rumors of React Court's demise?
YTA
the rumors were almost true. the talkings amongst the grounds spoke ill of the court. they claimed they had seen it’s members slain in a yonder village. the rumors were false for here it stands, alive and well. today we rejoice, react court lives!
That ‘betwixt the sheets’ comment was absolutely fucking insane bro
“I found this ridiculous, but I agreed in the moment hoping he would change his mind after meeting the dog”
I wish NL read this sentence bc I think it really speaks for itself lol. He’s just mad he couldn’t manipulate his kid in the way he wanted. And no explanation for why the thing he wants needs to be his kid’s responsibility anyway
Jesse what the fuck are you talking about?
"You gotta turn two keys, and d-d at the same time a Heinz bottle pops out and ruins your relationship, like just relax" - potentially the greatest line ever spoken
I see this and drop everything else I have for an hour
The ketchup boyfriend story is pretty similar to the dog father story imo. Both are about people trying to force their hobby/interest on others and not understanding why the other person is resisting.
That first one was either an amazing creative writing exercise or the best revenge ever.
lmfao at the contrast of the final bit of the video with the black screen, followed by him just looking into my soul and the video ending
39:20 this is my favorite reading of anything ever. Really makes you think.
I'm honestly on the side of the OP for the laptop story. And I think the best way to look at it is, imagine if they were out, and it was someone else's laptop. Who would be liable then, the OP or the baby sitter?
It would obviously be the sitter since it's her job to make sure the kids aren't getting into trouble. I don't think that changes when the laptop changes hands.
1:01:09 actually, split judgments are a thing. For example, car crashes aren’t always 100% one driver’s fault, and the courts determine what % liable every party is.
why would you take someone who hates food to a fancy restuarant for their birthday
Last story
Teenager was under reasonable assumption that nothing would happen to the laptop since she had brought it multiple times before.
Verdict: Give the 6 year old to the babysitter and split the laptop in half.
This is an all-time classic React Court oh my god
All of NL's nuance goes out the window when an adult is a picky eater
i haven't watched any of it but based off the title I'm predicting somehow nl is gunna get onto another grocery store story. idk I just got a feeling.
The Wisconson reply to "this is my favorite hot dog on the citadel" sent me.
NL reading the psycho dog comment and putting on the LittleFinger voice made me lose it
BTW, the Heinz museum is in Pittsburg, not Allentown; wrong side of Pennsylvania (right state though)!
If I went to a sushi place and I saw someone take out a bottle of ketchup I would immediately get violent.
15:55 "I'm sentencing you to get a life as well. I'm sorry"
NNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
the dog comment and then the "why don't you go f*ck your ketchup bottle?" got me dying from laughter
I love this series
1:03:20
It's good to see React Court can still tilt NL so hard he creates the most psychotic unrelated strawman of all time
When NL referenced the Elissa big brother clip and I get excited that he also watches BB and then I remember than he’s friends with Dan and I knew this already
If you're ever in a situation where someone says "Hey, just so you know, I don't want this thing and this is how I'll react if it happens" and then you go ahead and do the thing anyways, realize that you're the asshole when they do exactly what they said they were gonna do.
9:00 NL will see an offhand comment basically saying “oh she’s been fine, other than the one acceptable time to make noise she’s been quiet” and interpret it as “OH SO YOURE TRYING TO MAKE A DIG AT HER BY BRINGING THAT UP HUH??”
I hate when parents think they shouldn't be responsible for things their kids break.
The little finger impression absolutely SENT me
If I was the grandparent that got that call about the spray bottle I'd laugh my ass off that is hilarious.
We need NL to Check out BestOfRedditorUpdates, the new spicy drama subreddit
Holy brsh that comment on the dog post could be the greatest reddit moment I've ever seen
💪
me after injecting this pog into my veins
These were some of THE most Reddit comments I’ve ever seen. The dog one especially. Jesus God, the way they talk makes them sound so pretentious, even if they’re right.
if you don't like to go out to eat its probably because you just don't like to go out, which is much more reasonable
AITA for expecting react court to have not been able to revive out of the dirty pit it fell into after being shot in the gut and had its lunch money stolen?
Verdict: The asshole
dog owners truly be like "how could you not love my destructive little untrained beast? he's so disgusting!"
whoever keeps spreading the rumors of react court’s demise has a terrible track record
I like how the neighbor snuck in a noise complaint for her moving day. what the heck?
The one person needs to chill about their food independence and their partner needs to never elect to gift them with a food experience.
The Joker from the dog story comments section basically lives on AITA. Truly least unhinged AITA redditor of all time
why would anyone spy on u on their doorbell? 😭😭😭 the tint foil is everywhere
paranoia is a hell of a drug
I don't even understand how you could spy on someone with a doorbell?? Aren't you just gonna see the outside of an apartment's door? some people are just nuts
@@emil.soderholm You could see the times people leave/arrive at their house. It's a static image 99% of the time so it'd even be trivial to auto-detect changes and aggregate the data or set up alerts. The person in the post? Yeah they're kinda nutty for how they've reacted to the situation. In general? It'd be nice if people realised how garbage the cybersecurity on these things are, it's basically an open feed for anyone who wants to watch the stream or feed the data into a database, not just the owner
@@OsthatoAlfakyn Yeah I hate how people pay to purchase items that are used to surveil them. Like Amazon owns a whole surveillance empire at this point and it's just growing. They know the layout of your house and your every thought you say out loud...
@@chatnoir9038 You aren't important enough to spy on. The only thing Amazon is going to do with your data is use it to tailor the ads you see. Oh no... the horror... fetch me my fainting chair.
It's fun to see NL gaining such an accurate read on reddit's collective moral framework.
24:29 the parent has to be the bad cop so the host can be the good cop - holy shit this is good advice, NL’s got a good brain in there
I really want to see Twitch Chat’s reaction to that Dylan+Zeus reply, lordy
Dog-walking story, the *instant* I read the bit about Dylan "being different," not liking sports and OP "having a hard time connecting with him," I knew the "problem" was that Dylan is neurodivergent and OP is either unable or unwilling to accept his kid for who he is.
The sushi one is definitely an AH, they know that their boyfriend doesn’t care about fine dining but they are planning to spend a bunch of money on it for his birthday and want to act like they are doing him a favour. It’s obvious who the gift is actually for and it’s not him, that said the guy is a weirdo.
Why involve ketchup to ‘make a point’ when you could just say “no thanks I don’t want to do that”?
It's ESH for me. They both should learn how to communicate in a relationship. Forcing fine dining on the bf isn't cool & being passive aggressive with the ketchup bottle is also unhelpful.
But I guess the people with good communication skills don't need to post on Reddit to solve their problems.
@@cinemaker321 I would say nobody sucks, they're both just not that good at communication. The girl definitely doesn't suck for paying someone to go to a nice restaurant and the guy can't suck for not liking a specific kind of food, but she could have picked something that fits him better and if he dislikes what she picked so much he could just have asked for a different place
@@cinemaker321 I really feel like the gf isn’t an asshole. She suggests going to a restaurant of a food type her bf likes for his birthday. She could maybe understand that this isn’t exactly what he wants, but it’s not an asshole move to try to do something nice. He could have just said no but he chooses to be difficult and passive aggressive on purpose. She is presumably paying a money for this so I think she can say “I don’t want you to bring ketchup” which doesn’t mean “you must go and enjoy how I want” it means “don’t come and ruin it just because.” She could be a better listener but he’s the asshole
I get a strange vibe that the boyfriend is an AH not because he doesn't enjoy fine dining but because his girlfriend does and he's trying to knock her down a peg by belittling her passions by implying her breath/depth of knowledge is trumped with a bottle of ketchup.(probably insecure and intimidated by her). Or sure, maybe he loves ketchup... on his sushi... and burnt steak... I see her just trying to share herself with him in an interesting experience (iirc she's buying. NL says get out of your own way and the court is adjourned)
@@mattwilliams2935 Yeah, I have a hard time understanding how people can be on the boyfriend side on this one
Chatter asking how much a laptop costs is pissing me off. As if you need to buy a new laptop because your screen broke. You can get your expensive stuff fixed you know? Buying yet another 1200$ phone because the battery doesn't last +24hrs is another example of this throwaway mentality. I wonder if those people also buy a new car when they have a flat tire...
eh, tbf replacing a laptop screen if it's a budget laptop, at that point just buy a new one. When I went to get mine repaired there was also no parts for it and could have taken months before they could get any could have had to do with it. couldn't find the parts online either. It has to do with whether it's a budget laptop or not imo.

What is this title, a Seinfeld episode?
Best React Court in a while. Love these "unhinged but harmless" ones.
bro that comment on the dog walking thing was actually psychotic
As someone who had a babysitter and babysat, if my laptop got broken on my watch the parents shouldn't have to pay for it. It is my responsibility to make sure that 1) the kids are behaving and 2) I don't put expensive personal items in a place where the kids can get their hands on it and break it, especially if I'm being paid to do this. Seems to me like this babysitter wasn't ready for the responsibility and is now trying to blame the parents for her mess up.
NL Roasting me as a middle child when it’s not me hurts me
Aunt Vivian is based, but why is that title so insane? She didn't spray bottle the nephew to train him. She spray bottled her nephew as he was commtting a misdemeanor. If anything I feel like the Vivian should be mad. The mother should have informed her child that aunt Vivian is based.
React Court and NL are a match made in heaven
Insane father to his dog-hating child: "I am altering the deal, pray I don't alter it any further"
Thank you for posting another AITA. I fall asleep to them and I have been having to replay older ones 😩
"She was 17" "So what, what happened to personal responsibility" "The baby did a thing" "Oh my god that baby is not 55 and retired early, what personal responsibility, you should keep them on a leash so they are always next to you, you can't expect anything of them, they are not 18 yet!"
39:20 to 43:15 is all one comment the lord of the manor does nought simply quill a comment that is lesser than the original post itself 🎩
NL for the love of god, please do these in dark mode.
I refuse to believe that 39:20 isn't a copypasta
The first one is wild as hell, who has beef with a four year old?
I'm with NL on the sushi one, this guy's aggressive hatred and contempt for "fine dining" is not only petty and childish, its just a bit unhinged. The way I see it she was just offering a nice dining experience, based on the kind of food she knows he likes (seriously, what part of "he likes sushi" do you people not understand?) it'd be her treat, she gets to share a piece of her interests with him while they enjoy the food that (let me remind you) he said he liked.
If he doesn't want that or sees a problem with that, the reasonable thing for him to do would be to say he doesn't want it, maybe show that he appreciates the thought she put in, trying to find something he would like and just respectfully decline and, oh I don't know, maybe tell her what he wants? Instead he just throws it back in her face with the threat of pulling childish antics in a petty display of contempt for her gesture. This guy needs to grow up and either learn to communicate properly or sort out whatever issues are making him so hostile to his girlfriend's interests.
Agreed 100%. In the scheme of things it's not a big deal at all, but he's making it such a big deal and communicating so poorly that it may result in effecting their relationship, which is just so ridiculous.. it's one meal that he said he likes ffs

First react court I've sat down and listened too and I truly love your commentary
The Dylan killing the dog story is the most insane reply I have ever seen ever
Guy who wrote that comment on the dog post desperately needs to interact with people in like a creative writing club or something because holy shit if you're talking like that normally irl something is so wrong
People complaining about the ring doorbell, the door does not have a peephole or a way to see who is on the other side before opening it. Especially for a woman living alone that can be *incredibly dangerous*. She's absolutely allowed to install it if the property management approves of it which they clearly did since they talked to the dude complaining to leave her and it alone. It's 2022, people are wilding, you're significantly less likely to have hacked-ring footage of yourself picking your nose in your doorway made public than a woman being assaulted/accosted by someone at their door.
But... but...someone might see the inside of my sloppy ass apartment for a few brief seconds a day 🥺
This is an interesting perspective I hadn't considered yet. I understand the point some people make about how Ring doorbells can be a privacy risk and the fact that Ring doorbells contribute to unsolicited neighbourhood surveilance, but on the otherhand I think that person is really overestimating just how interesting they truly are. My guess is they'll probably be okay.
44:00 WrenisPinkle gifting subs during the dog walking post killed me. Idk why.
