@@imajsstove2907 In a nutshell, it was an agreement from 1787 that made it so that every enslaved person in the United States would count as three-fifths of a person for taxation and representation in the House of Representatives purposes because the south and north couldn't agree on whether a slave should be counted as a person or not.
@@primordialbias8711 Yeah and the northern states (usually more anti slavery than the south) actually wanted slaves to not count for matters of representation because it would mean that the South would have more power to do things like, you know, own slaves. So kinda funny that not counting people as people was the argument of the side more against slavery (Although the North was perfectly fine with taking the profit from the slave trade so eh this fact isn’t actually that profound anyways lol)
@@sirwabaloo7930 It was also because since they weren't allowed to vote so the north thought it would be unfair for them to count as citizens when they couldn't have any form of meaningful impact on political elections or other things of the sort.
Brings back memories: "Git in duh car kids, we're leavin'." Flash forward two hours, and we are still sitting in the car watching our parents talk to people who are even dumber than they are, while our friends play without us in the background. Your time will never be worth less than when you're a kid, unless you get life in prison lol
Yeah I can still remember as a kid when me and my brother had to essentially just stand around for an hour or two, when our dad was cleaning up the boiler room or the shed or something, and maybe had us carry something somewhere once every 15 minutes. :D He pretty much did everything himself but we always had to be available in case he needed help :D
Dude, I thought that "put your hand away / keep your hand there" thing was the signature move of my dad in particular. Turns out he learned it at dad academy
My dad isn’t perfect (and neither am I) but this is one of the things he was good about. He always took my suggestions & ideas and tried them, and if they worked he’d say “good idea Brett!”. Nowadays when we work together on projects he always asks my perspective on certain bits as we go. I wonder if he knows how important that type of validation was to me while growing up.

"How the fuck it isn't there?! I put it right there a while ago! You kids these days can't find an elephant even if it's in front of your nose! Get out of the way I'll fetch it myself!"

Pay attention and learn some life skills. You'll be happy you did when you have a place of your own and have to fix things around the house. I'm still constantly calling my dad to ask for DIY advice and glad he's around to give it.
When you follow a comedian for a while you start to get prepared for their jokes and style, you don't really laugh as much as you should. I've watched nearly every Gus Johnson sketch and let me tell you, that 3/5 compromise joke had me rolling on the floor. I did not expect to laugh that hard.

Don’t forget the classic:
“It’s righty righty lefty loosey. Not THAT way the other way! RIGHTY TIGHTY LEFTY LOOSEY, cmON son!”
That always confused the crap out of me so my parents just gave up. They say Clockwise and counter clockwise now.
@skOsH It always confused me because I'd be looking at the bottom half of the nut turning rather than the top half
right, that phrase is so useless because a circle is simultaneously going right and left
"FOR FUCK SAKE IT'S RIGHRY RIGHTY LEFTY LOOSEY.... NO! I FUCKING SAID LEFTY TIGTY RIGHTY LOOSEY GOD FUCKING DAMNIT!"
I have no idea why anyone figured that was more useful than just saying clockwise

So accurate. When my dad says he needs my help I can guarantee that it’ll be him under the sink for fourth minutes telling me to stand there and hold a wrench or something
The sheer accuracy of this video is astounding. Only thing missing was Dad asking for "a screwdriver" and not specifying literally anything else.

Pay attention and learn some life skills. You'll be happy you did when you have a place of your own and have to fix things around the house. I'm still constantly calling my dad to ask for DIY advice and glad he's around to give it.
@@merpuffedy what are you even talking about
When you follow a comedian for a while you start to get prepared for their jokes and style, you don't really laugh as much as you should. I've watched nearly every Gus Johnson sketch and let me tell you, that 3/5 compromise joke had me rolling on the floor. I did not expect to laugh that hard.
Does it imply anything specific, or just "compromising on fundamental values in life" in general?
@@TheHadMatters the 3/5ths compromise was a law put into effect during the civil war era that determined how slaves to count towards the population of a state for every 5 slaves only 3 could be counted towards the population hence the name 3/5ths compromise
