That grandmother was heckin terrible. Poor little girl is probably traumatized by the grandmother. And add on to the fact that she was never supportive of her own daughter? The hell is that!? 💀
Telling someone to get over it when someone they care about dies is the worst thing to tell to that person. Especially to a child who is still mourning. And showing emotion is not considered a weakness. I don't care what anybody says. Holding it in, will just bring you even more pain when your body needs it. But seriously, people always say get over it. There are some people around that are still in pain (grieving) of what they lost even if it was years ago. You can move on but the pain will always be there.
I moved cross country end of last month to help a friend battling lymphoma, he passed away Sunday morning before last and called security company I work for to explain why I wouldn't be able to be in that day. My boss didn't even hesitate, told me to take care of what I needed to deal with (which between my friends widow attempting to OD, his dna donor being his usual controlling narcissist self, taking care of both god kids, and making funeral arrangements has been two weeks of "fuck my life") and my position would be available when I came back. I finally got the memorial service set up called my boss and let him know what was going on and his only response was "So, do you want to have a couple of guards in uniform present?". I stopped at the office to deal with some benefit paperwork yesterday and found out my boss has been understanding because his brother passed way in June and his opinion is everyone deserves at least a month of bereavement.
You are so spot on with your comment. A loss of a person or pet that was truly deeply loved will hurt forever. You just learn to soldier on. I also don't believe in this "closure" psychobabble. Your heart never closes when it's ripped apart, even if the cause of that pain is brought to justice. Thankfully we can and do find things to be happy for in the new normal, but it's never like it was before the loss.
So very true! Been grieving for the childhood I should’ve had and the parents I should’ve had, my whole life. Cut contact from my abusive and enabling family 8 years ago…it all still hurts. I wish I could just “get over it” but it’s not that easy. Every memory has to be grieved, sometimes more than once. It’s exhausting and painful.
story 3: that entitled mother is absolutely DISGUSTING!!!! if it were me I'd get a restraining order and forbid her from ever coming near the Daughter ever again!!
If I can give the new guy she is banging with, At least he got her off the drugs judging by how op mention's what his parents are like. Would still go no contact with her regardless despite cleaning her acted.
Seriously though, OP says that she understands now that being drunk and high is not normal but she STILL ALLOWED an drunk and high person around her daughter. I don't care how much she was 'grieving' that person should never be allowed around children!
If the last OP is a female (and I think she is) then having the aggressive ‘buyer’ come back alone, without his wife or adult daughter, would set off numerous red flags. Particularly if the realtors told him that the neighbouring basement suite had tenants who were away so no one to hear a struggle.
I have heard of people staying in a house overnight before finalizing on a purchase. They are always well planned out in advance though, and it's not something I've ever heard of being for free and without liability waivers being signed.
Perhaps not, after my grandparents died my Dad and his siblings were selling their home, the buyer asked if they could move in before it was all finalised because their property had sold already. My family said no because that would create a legal nightmare if they then didn't go through with the purchase.
@@shendisackett fortunately they were too smart to let them move in. Sadly they had moved out and into a short term rental and had to reverse the process. My step mom is no dummy though. She refused to let the earnest escrow money go. They went to court and they showed all the costs they incurred moving twice because the “buyers” had no intention of actually buying the place. They had not even applied for a loan. So my dad and step mom came out oaky in the long run
Sadly entitled parents/grandparents like that exist everywhere. I was “trained” not to cry through violent abuse as a child, which gave me PTSD and permanent nerve damage (so I’m about 90% bedridden disabled with mobility issues), and I wasn’t allowed to cry at my Grandma’s funeral, and was terrified of expressing emotions in case I got violently beaten up. I adored my grandmother, she was one of the few relatives that stood up to my parents abuse and was always kind to me, so her death hit me hard, but I apparently wasn’t allowed to express myself and openly grieve because my father told me it was “weak”. There’s too many toxic parents/grandparents out there who think someone expressing themselves is a massive cardinal sin, when really crying is a natural emotion.
Thank you for your prayers, love and support! I have an unofficially adoptive family who love me for who I am and understand me! I live in a city that has decent medical support so I’ve had professional trauma/PTSD related therapy, am medicated and have a really good medical team, my therapist sat with me at length as I described being unable to cry, and she also understood that I know it’s a natural emotion, but it’s not one I can easily express two decades later. Apparently it’s so ingrained into my brain that it’s part of me now, my PTSD kicks in if I want to cry and will stop me, so I’ve learnt coping mechanisms for when this happens. It sucks, not gunna lie, but I’ve no contact with my biological family and mentally I’m so, so much happier, stable and free, the past few years have been the best for me mentally by cutting all contact, and my adoptive family was there for me right away by my side!
@@ZombieSazza I'm so glad it all worked out for you! I hope you never, ever, EVER see those monsters (they don't deserve to be called "family" in anyway, biological or no) again! May God continue to bless you for the rest of your life.
Never heard of someone trying to break into a house they allegedly want to buy, so either he was looking to stay somewhere for free whilst on holiday, or he wanted to steal as much as possible
All those crazy people should be arrested AND prosecuted for calling the 911 emergency line for stupidities. Also, entitlement should be declared as against the law for it can conduct to deplorable behaviors.
The last story: Thumbs up and much praise for the landlord and the realtor. They sounded like decent people. I hope they get rewarded with booming business, thanks to good karma.
That's how some people are, they're so afraid of being alone or of hurting, or so utterly lost on their own that they rush into the next relationship. It's not necessarily healthy, but they're not necessarily in a good state of mind to be making good decisions in. But couple that with grandma being drunk and stoned out if of her gourd and having a lifelong history of narcissism and it's a completely different story.
Dude Story 3 has me in absolute rage. The fact she told a mourning child that she could not be sadder than a woman who *somehow got over grief and started dating shortly after losing her husband* makes me shake. I really dislike people who tell others to "get over a loss." I can't stop shaking. (Note: This happened to me when I lost my cousin who was like an older brother to me. He had medical problems but never let it control who he was. The sweetest and most gentle person I ever met. Hearing about him passing hurt so much that my job actually let me take some time off. At the time my sister hated his father and told me that I should not be so sad over a cousin and expected me to be worse when she passes. She is an alcoholic who has literally had baby daddy after baby daddy and always manipulates anyone she knows.)
I know my dad was my oldest niece's best friend while he was alive. She was the apple of pawpaw's eye too. My dad died in Feburary of 2017 and my niece was brokenhearted. I know if anyone had told her she wasn't allowed to grieve, I know my brother would've punched their lights out. My niece still sleeps with a blanket on her bed that has the Marine Corps symbol of the Globe and Anchor with the Eagle atop of it that was on pawpaw's guest bed. Both her grandpas were Marines, so this young lady knows what it means when she hears someone say SEMPER DI
After my grandpa died, I kept one of his sweaters. I will occasionally wear it during panic attacks because it feels like he’s holding me. He would hold me while I had my attacks.
@@QueenSunstar I'm sorry that you suffer from panic attacks, but feeling like you're being hugged your grandpa must be a gentle and comforting way to come down from what can be an awful and I'm sure tramaitizing experience
My Aunt (RIP) dropped my cousin off at my grandma’s doorstep when he was a teenager and disappeared for a year. Now that same cousin tries dumping his son, 13 off on my grandma’s doorstep! She’s 81 and dementia is setting in, my mother didn’t let this happen, now he’s thinking of giving him to an ex that wants him. This is a child he fought to see and be a part of his life, and once he gets him does this!
We have a child I work at that lost her grandfather a couple of years ago. During that time it was hard. She was only 5 at the time and hurting so much. We normally try not to cuddle the older kids too much, but whenever she would cry, we would hold her until she felt better. It was so sad to see. It took a few months for her to get back to her happy self. I could not imagine ever telling a child that she does not have the right to feel their emotions especially when they are going through something like that. All of this to say, that grandmother was a complete, heartless bitch.
Story two..... Tell entitled SIL to go pound sand! Her problem is self inflicted. Story three.... so entitled grandma thinks it's alright to "grieve" by partying hardy and screwing a new BF? And she marginalizes a child's grief? She is despicable. I'd advise OP to go hard no contact.
Yeah after that whole thing I would NOT have let her back into my life ever. Because in case you haven’t noticed grandma, YOU WERE NOT THE ONLY PERSON IN THE GRANDPA’S LIFE!
2:06 as if the story was not clear enough. It does not matter how good a Surgeon is, if there are many patients throughout the day, and one or two possibly pass away, it is not the surgeons fault. Procedures and surgeries they can take multiple hours to complete.
I normally don't listen to "Entitled People" because the stories make me so mad, then I accidentally listen to one, get really mad, and remind myself why my blood pressure does not need this.
I feel for that doctor. I'm a student nurse and I've worked on 2 wards so far and it''s not easy to lose a patient. You almost have to protect your heart to stop it from hurting. And sometimes it can really be hard to continue like nothing has happened when interacting with other patients.
There is a follow up video to the haircut. The kid was 17 and the barber verified several times how short the kid said he wanted it done. The kid left paid and tipped the guy, then the mom came in later and started causing a scene
If someone told me too kick my grieving father out of his own house I’d just say “No way! You must be out of your mind!” Then hang up and block her number!”
When I was 12 we lost my Great Grandma. I capitalized the G in Great because she really was a great woman! She wasn't just our family matriarch, she was our best friend. Think of anything that would make an old lady amazing, and she had that trait. Even when she got Alzheimer's she still never lost her sweetness or her strength or her eagerness to love. She doesn't remember you and thinks she's meeting you for the first time? Doesn't matter! She loved you anyway! So needless to say, when she died I was DEVASTATED! Well on the day of her funeral I made the mistake of saying that I missed Grandma Nelly in front of my Grandma Barb, and she TORE INTO me! She told me that Grandma Nelly was only my Great Grandma, whereas she was Grandma Barb's Mom, that NOBODY could miss her as much as her, how DARE I say that I miss her?! Etc. The audacity of me, right?! How DARE a child miss an amazing person and beloved relative?! I'm sorry, but you don't say that! Especially to a child! I get that Grandma was grieving, but we all were. That's why we were there! It was Grandma Nelly's funeral, for crying in the sink!
Story 3 is so sad? OP is literally talking about HER DAD. She is so worried about her daughter that she only refers to the relationship between daughter and pop pop. And she has to defend her 7 year old against her mom as if SHE DIDNT JUST LOSE HER FATHER? HELLO? WHAT EVEN
I never heard of staying at a house before you buy it. Doing a walk-through with the Realtor and taking measurements to see if your furniture will fit and to see if you like the layout, yes.
Piece of advice to anyone trying to become Step Mom/Dad - Never tell the kid to call you Mom/Dad - just say "Please, call me Martha/Mark." Trust me - divorced parents. Father has been married to R (wife #2) for 20+ years, and Mother's been in a relationship with D (Boyfriend #3 - let's just say that Boyfriends 1 and 2 had issues) for the same length. Mother's Boyfriend - "Just call me D." Well, while we've had a few bumps along the road, especially him combating alcoholism, my brothers and I have a decent relationship with him. Been there for good times and bad. Stepmother - "Call me Mom." Let's just say that in the 20 years since they've been married, my father has lost the respect of me and my brothers - we never call him, we never visit him, we never go fishing - and it's just plain sad.
Don't punish your Dad because he chose poorly. Be the bigger man and show him love before he passes. You'll thank yourself after he's gone. Trust me when I say he needs you.
@@thisismagacountry1318 Sadly, he's burned all three bridges between me and my two brothers, and while I might be willing to bring along 2x4s in an attempt to rebuild them, someone else needs to bring the hammer and nails.
@@thisismagacountry1318 Well, when your old man hits you in the back of the head, and says he never wants to see you again, it's going to take more than a beer to make things up.
God the first story, just reminded me of the fat embolism episode from house md, after he spent so long helping that lady, she still died and house outburst made my heart sink
Absolutely. When Foreman told him, it's not his fault and he just blew up at saying, that yes, he did everything right and she still died, why the heck should that make him feel any better. Truly powerful scene in the whole series.
Story 1: "She tries to argue that he's a useless doctor" Okay Karen...then why would you want your child to be seen by "useless Doctor"? Get the fuck out! Story 2: I would tell the EP that even when Dad has moved out she will NOT be moving in...period...end of story. Story 3: OP did the best thing she could for her child...getting that crazy crack-head away from her daughter...not sure if I would have relented after only 1 year though. Story 4: Yes...the "buyer" was absolutely trying to scam the realtor, the owners & OP...OP could have said that cops were on their way & the security cameras were recording.
Your lack of planning does not constitute an emergency for me. I hope that sister-in-law got kicked out on the curb, and her kids taken to a better home by cps.
I bet that the lady that “didn’t like her son’s haircut” was just trying to get it for free by acting like she didn’t like it and the guy refused to comp it so she freaked out.
Unfortunately you see a lot of major jerks in the emergency room. Karen is not nearly a vile enough name for this woman. The poor parents that loss their child!
I really felt what that 6 year old girl was going through in story three. My grandma did the exact same thing it wasn’t even a year yet and she replaced him with someone else. I remember visiting and going inside to see an absolute stranger sitting on the coach and I’m standing there thinking who on earth is that. Then G-ma comes over and says this is my new boyfriend. I was still quiet young at the time and my first thought was grandma just replaced grandpa. My mom was pissed when she heard 11 year old me and my 8 year old brother crying that grandma replaced grandpa
@@thisismagacountry1318 I'm considered elderly and I live alone and have lived alone basically half way thru my marriage. Women don't need a man to live with. . just phone number for a good handyman.
We were at the memorial for my dad. A good friend of his was crying on and off and I wasn't (pretty cried out by that point). She apologized and said she shouldn't be crying like that. I told her, I don't hold the monopoly on grief for my father. That isn't how grief works, and it's incredibly selfish to think because you were the "closest" to them, that others won't grieve just as much as you are. I let her know her feelings were valid and completely okay with me.
I have dislocations every day and I won't go to hospital as I just 'pull myself together' lol. The only time in the past 3 years I went it was because I'd sliced part of the side of my fingertip clean off (I'm on blood thinners for life) and even then I WALKED there, only a mile away thank goodness, with my finger wrapped in kitchen paper towels. You can imagine what I looked like, I use a walker and was leaving a small blood trail due to the paper not absorbing any more lol.
I'm glad grandma got some help. Her new guy may have had no idea of all the family drama going on. How does one treat their 6-7 yo granddaughter that way! The last story, OP is very fortunate the door was locked or she may have ended up in a freezer or the ocean. I doubt he was returning to measure or he would had knocked BEFORE trying the door knob.
Many decades ago I was a kid and we lived in Honolulu (dad was in the military) and one night mom has to go off to the base hospital. Quite a bit of pain, but not life threatening - what was once referred to a "female problems." Probably got there around 2200 and by 0600 the next day had yet to be seen. As this was circa 1971, the doctors and staff were al rather busy taking care of folks that a few hours earlier had been injured in Vietnam. Around 0730 some colonel's wife (at this time colonels were a nickel for two dozen) who begins griping and complaining to the corpsman on duty that she can't be seen right away - a proto-Karen I suppose. Mom, in pain, on minimal sleep and watching injured and badly injured young men coming through got up, walked over to Mrs. Important and read her the riot act, pointing out that the doctors were busy fixing up wounded young men injured or maimed in combat and that Mrs. Important needed to sit down, shut up, and let the doctors help those who really needed it. Funny thing, the corpsman found a doctor for my mom not long afterwards.
Im sure the Mom wanted her son's hair cut how she wanted and the kid asked for it to be cut how he wanted and that's why she was upset. I've seen that happen before.
Yay! Darkfluff uploaded! I love this content, it never fails to make me smile! Also, I’m sending good vibes to stevo! Hope he knows how much we appreciate him!
The little girl and her late grandpa are heartbreaking. My nieces (ages 6, 4, and not quite 2) worship the ground my dad walks on. He's the only grandpa they have, and Papa is their best friend. I would break people in half if they ever respond to their grief in such a heartless way.
I sold a house and the buyer wanted to live in it for 3 months to test it!...I absolutely denied it. She bought the house anyways, but that was a crazy request.
@@erickpoorbaugh6728 Agreed. If some idiot Karen had done that to me, SHE would’ve needed treatment afterwards because I would definitely have not been responsible for my actions, and it takes a LOT to piss me off!
Grandma with new boyfriend Story: If I were OP, not only would I call CPS and report her for Mental Child Abuse, I'd also call a Lawyer and both Sue her for the Mental and Emotional Pain and Suffering she caused her Granddaughter, but I'd also apply for a FULL Restraining Order (No Contact with her Granddaughter, stay a MINIMUM of 100 Yards away, stay off my property/Granddaughter's home stay off Granddaughter's School Property) and also call my Daughter's School and tell them that her Grandma is PERMANENTLY Banned from ALL contact/Information regarding Granddaughter and if Grandma even steps one toe onto School Property, they are to IMMEDIATELY call the Police and have her Arrested.
So the follow up- the story about the mom? Is you’ve blocked her from your and your child’s life right? Like any other sane person? Just because she has the same dna doesn’t mean she should be in your child’s life. I’d say allowing her to be around is abusing the 7 year old. So get some stones mama and keep your psychotic mother away
Story 1: It’s easy to tell if someone has lasting issues. We’re primarily concerned with a concussion. If the pupils are both dilated equally, then there’s nothing to worry about. You can shine light into the eyes to really see, but it’s not always necessary. The kid wasn’t even disoriented. Other than that, we’re concerned about bleeding, burns, dying skin, etc. but recognizing that requires even less “special” knowledge.
"You cannot grieve more than me" Eh, love. You got yourself a new boyfriend with in the few days of your husband's death. I am pretty sure from that, you are not grieving at all and just putting on a show to make others feel sorry for you while saying something so vile to your 7 year old granddaughter.
the grandparent story hits me hard…i was 8 when my great grandpa passed 3 days before christmas eve, no one said i had no roght to cry. i was 24 when i lost my grandpa, no one said that me and i didnt know the man even had cancer till after he died. then this past january, i lost my dad im 32 almost 33 and not even mom has said nothing like that grandmother
Karen hospital story: I pulled a muscle in my right side ladt night and had too much pain this morning to drive the 20 mins to the ED much less the 27 mins to Urgent Care (which I admit is more appropriate) because there was no way I could reach over to put a vehicle in Reverse or Drive. I apologised to the ambulance staff because they could have been saving a life. I packed up cell, headphones, power cords and a USB multiport because I knew my muscle pain was bottom of priority in an ED. I apologised to my nurse, RT, doctor and PA because my pain was not as important as someone's life. I've sat and watched loved ones pass. I feel for that surgeon and the parents of the 16 yo girl. Bravo, Dr!
Pretty obvious that the dad in the last story didn't actually care about measurements. If he really wanted to know he could've asked the realtor, or contacted OP and asked them to measure for him. Would've been way less creepy and invasive.
Story three: When my grandpa died, I came home from work to an answering machine message from my mom "grandpa died. " We all lived in the same town. When it was time for his service, my mom whispered to me, "cry and I will beat you! Your grandma doesn't need to see your tears."
@@lamarasawyer850 I am better after years of therapy. So, I am in a better place. No, I did not cry at his funeral. Ironically, a few years later my step-grandma died. I might have met her three times in total. The job I was working at gave bereavement leave. I took it. I was honest with my manager that I was only taking the time off for the three days paid and since I could the two days before it and after the three as my days off. I made it for a mini vacation. Anyway, I went to her service and cried for my grandpa, but no one knew that, they assumed I was crying for her. Thank you for caring and asking!
For story #3, that sounds like grandma just wanted an excuse to do whatever she wanted. My grandmother behaved similarly. Not to that extant, but became VERY entitled, selfish, and uncaring which was very different than how she used to be when I was growing up, before my grandfather died. Whenever she was confronted for her behavior it was always crocodile tears and a sob story of "I'm old that means I can do what I want! YOU cant tell me what to do! I can finally do things that *I* want!" Etc. Now at first I tried to be understanding because I loved my Grandma and she had helped me alot growing up, so I was willing to let some things slide, but after she had stolen everything that my grandfather left "us kids", and when she started throwing FULL ON TEMPER TANTRUMS like a toddler when things didnt go EXACTLY as she wanted, best example was when, during a family get-together with all us kids for once, she was mad because right before we were about to take a family photo with her and us kids (which was sort of a tradition) she got upset because her new bf (nobody liked because of his very poor attitude towards everyone in the family) told her that the youngest (about 4 or 5 at the time) was doing something (dont 100% remember because this was many years ago) He didnt do that and wasnt even close to where the bf said he was, and us older kids had been watching him (the next youngest before him was about 16) He had been in plain view of all of us the entire time, but my grandmother chose to believe the bf over us. She then wanted him to stop playing and to come inside to do chores (this was his first time at my grandmother's place, and the things she wanted him to do he had never done before such as laundry, and cleaning out the garage among other things 🤦♀️ I'm honestly not sure what she was expecting) Anyway, as us kids are trying to persuade her that, if she wants those things done WE can help her, that the kid didnt do that thing, she starts with the crocodile tears. Now my mom, thinking it would help to distract my grandmother, said it's time for the photo. Us kids took the hit, saying "come on grandma, let's go take a nice photo", but she wasnt having it. She DEMANDED the kid do those things, and if not "Either I'm not in the picture or HE'S not!" Somehow we were able to get her to agree to the picture and she pouted the entire time. The boy tried to hug her and say sorry immediately after the picture, but she pushed him off and ran inside and refused to come out of her room. Reminder, this woman was in her 70s, had raised 4 kids and had helped with the grandkids. I do not know what happened to the woman I used to know and look up to, but she only got worse as the years went on. Eventually she got to the point where she is basically living with the bfs family, acts as though they are her own, and treats her own like we are expendable, only around when she needs something done, and that's it. The loving, caring, understanding woman I grew up with is gone, and it breaks my heart, but it's her choice.
The Karen in the ER is something that happens pretty much every shift, every day, at least once per shift. Some Karens are actually patients that have had a cold or flu for 3 weeks and are tired of it (not that it has gotten worse, they're just tired of it, so, not an emergency). Some will actually assault the receptionist. Boy, could I tell you tons of stories about EP's in the ER! When I worked (night shift) in Las Vegas, we got some really bad cases that were a mess: knife fights, gun shots, gang violence, suicide attempts, domestic violence, car wrecks, etc. The policy in our ER was to let the people know, at least every 30 minutes, how long we thought it would be yet and if we had a critical case (or 3). Every once in a while, when some EP wouldn't shut up about how long they had been waiting, I'd grab them by the collar, drag them to the doorway of the trauma room, where bloody gauze packs were piling up around the gurney and at least 8 people were in the room doing everything they could to save the life of the unfortunate one, and yell at the EP: "THERE! Now you know why you have to wait! Is your cold, flu, or little boo-boo more important than THAT?" At which point they usually fainted and I left them laying there on the floor and went back to the trauma at hand. When they woke up, they shakily stumbled back into the waiting room, ashen and trembling, and made not another peep. Sounds harsh, I know, but it is against the law to interfere with emergency personnel engaged in trying to save a life. I like to think the EP's I had to deal with that way changed their entitled ways.
Story 2: I would allow her to move in and then immediately evict her saying that she is a horrible person and is unfit to live in any property I own. (Of course I would let my grieving dad in on the plan to help teach her a lesson. I wouldn’t just spring something like that on a grieving man out of nowhere)
Oh, when I was in the ER last week with an extensive DVT in my left leg, there were a couple of “Karens,” but no EKs. One of them was having a fit over wearing a face mask. In a hospital.
I wouldn't feel safe in my home either if that happened? Breaking into my home, just to measure the space? If it was me, I would have 9-1-1 ready on my phone so I can call the guy on him for trespassing, BUT I'm satisfied that the dude didn't show up after that incident and I feel sorry for OP.
I stayed a night at a house I was interested in buying. Gave me a chance to see the road traffic and such. I would never have done so nor even asked to do so if the place had been occupied.
I knew a nurse whom specialized in ER care. She's currently a nurse practitioner and iIMNSHO is as good as a doctor. Won awards and all that. About twenty years ago she hired onto a service in California, in the LA area, that provides temps for overloaded hospitals. She ended up quitting, breaking the contract, after the abusive treatment she got in some LA ERs. She'd been threatened several times, with knives/guns/whatever from folks who thought their people weren't being taken care of quickly enough.
Story 2 - I sincerely hope that this family said NO to this woman. I hope that they are talking honesty with her regarding her unacceptable behaviour and actions. I hope they’re not just placating her with - Yes SIL No SIL Anything you say SIL And then scuttling away to complain on a reddit thread. I mean, I sympathise with them I truely do, but there comes a point when you just have to say enough is enough, telling SIL No, she will not be moving into your property. Then you go NO contact and you stick to it. If you think you can make her understand her behaviour, good luck. But if that’s the path you choose to go down then you will have to be prepared for a LOT of long drawn out “conversations” a lot of blame and crying etc etc. if you do not have the time or the mental strength to deal with it then see my previous solution but after saying NO, give your SiL a letter expressing how you feel and basically everything you said in your reddit post - you could alternatively simply email your SIL a link to your reddit post and then commence going no contact. It’s been 3 years since your post (maybe more) so, how did everything work out?
I had to pause the video just to comment on "Crotch Goblins" thats an insane way of discribing kids, in a funny way. Like something my country uncles would just reffer to kids in general as. Love it
Safe in my home"? I've been robbed and burgled several times and even assaulted on my doorstep. That was before I installed 8 cameras in and around my home and gardens feeding into a digital 8 channel recorder. Only the assault was after I put up the cameras and caught from 3 directions. The perp was arrested the same night and not let out for a couple of days since he couldn't even be given bail until he'd been in front of a magistrate. He was arrested after the courts closed on the Friday, so he had to cool his heels until the following Monday. lol
If it is SIL, wouldn't the divorce mean she has no relation to your family ??? As it means EX-SIL. So I'd say EXIT. No longer married to my family, by choice you can't demand crap from my family.
Lady: you gave my son a TERRIBLE HAIRCUT! let me speak to your manager!
Guy: umm.. I'm the owner.
Lady: well, 911 it is!

Hello
The only thing that would've been better is a continued video where she gets arrested for wasting the cops time
@@rebeccamcintoshbarnes9463 Yep that would be entertaining.
How do you not get the measurements of a house that you want to buy from the realtor?
Cowabunga it is
That grandmother was heckin terrible. Poor little girl is probably traumatized by the grandmother. And add on to the fact that she was never supportive of her own daughter? The hell is that!? 💀
Narcissism. That's what it is

Why did OP even allow her daughter around the drugged out/drunk lady who OP knows is not a good person?
haha i gave you a thumbs up for using the word "heckin" :)
jess beingme she didn't the bitch found was to meet her granddaughter
Story 2, I would straight up call CPS on that entitled SIL. The wellbeing of the kids is priority, and if she's not putting them first, then I will.
Telling someone to get over it when someone they care about dies is the worst thing to tell to that person. Especially to a child who is still mourning. And showing emotion is not considered a weakness. I don't care what anybody says. Holding it in, will just bring you even more pain when your body needs it. But seriously, people always say get over it. There are some people around that are still in pain (grieving) of what they lost even if it was years ago. You can move on but the pain will always be there.
She needs the old Yakuza treatment. Cut the fingers off
I mourned for my grandfather for two years, and I was already an adult!
I moved cross country end of last month to help a friend battling lymphoma, he passed away Sunday morning before last and called security company I work for to explain why I wouldn't be able to be in that day. My boss didn't even hesitate, told me to take care of what I needed to deal with (which between my friends widow attempting to OD, his dna donor being his usual controlling narcissist self, taking care of both god kids, and making funeral arrangements has been two weeks of "fuck my life") and my position would be available when I came back. I finally got the memorial service set up called my boss and let him know what was going on and his only response was "So, do you want to have a couple of guards in uniform present?".
I stopped at the office to deal with some benefit paperwork yesterday and found out my boss has been understanding because his brother passed way in June and his opinion is everyone deserves at least a month of bereavement.
You are so spot on with your comment. A loss of a person or pet that was truly deeply loved will hurt forever. You just learn to soldier on. I also don't believe in this "closure" psychobabble. Your heart never closes when it's ripped apart, even if the cause of that pain is brought to justice. Thankfully we can and do find things to be happy for in the new normal, but it's never like it was before the loss.
So very true! Been grieving for the childhood I should’ve had and the parents I should’ve had, my whole life. Cut contact from my abusive and enabling family 8 years ago…it all still hurts. I wish I could just “get over it” but it’s not that easy. Every memory has to be grieved, sometimes more than once. It’s exhausting and painful.
story 3: that entitled mother is absolutely DISGUSTING!!!! if it were me I'd get a restraining order and forbid her from ever coming near the Daughter ever again!!
If I can give the new guy she is banging with, At least he got her off the drugs judging by how op mention's what his parents are like. Would still go no contact with her regardless despite cleaning her acted.
@@pippo17173 I would had track her down walk up on her and put a couple of hallows in her face till I’m out then run outta there
Seriously though, OP says that she understands now that being drunk and high is not normal but she STILL ALLOWED an drunk and high person around her daughter. I don't care how much she was 'grieving' that person should never be allowed around children!
Also sounds likeca CPS call is in order.
If the last OP is a female (and I think she is) then having the aggressive ‘buyer’ come back alone, without his wife or adult daughter, would set off numerous red flags. Particularly if the realtors told him that the neighbouring basement suite had tenants who were away so no one to hear a struggle.
Yep. 100% agree! He was there for another reason.
Why would the Realtor know about the neighbors? They aren't selling theirs and there was no reason for OP to tell them.
I have heard of people staying in a house overnight before finalizing on a purchase. They are always well planned out in advance though, and it's not something I've ever heard of being for free and without liability waivers being signed.
It's reddit. If it sounds even the slightest bit fake, then it most likely is.
Perhaps not, after my grandparents died my Dad and his siblings were selling their home, the buyer asked if they could move in before it was all finalised because their property had sold already. My family said no because that would create a legal nightmare if they then didn't go through with the purchase.
@@shendisackett that happened to my dad and the reality was they never anted to buy they just wanted to rent the place
@@BusArch42 oh wow that must have been a headache. Luckily the buyer did go through with the purchase in our case.
@@shendisackett fortunately they were too smart to let them move in. Sadly they had moved out and into a short term rental and had to reverse the process. My step mom is no dummy though. She refused to let the earnest escrow money go. They went to court and they showed all the costs they incurred moving twice because the “buyers” had no intention of actually buying the place. They had not even applied for a loan. So my dad and step mom came out oaky in the long run
Sadly entitled parents/grandparents like that exist everywhere. I was “trained” not to cry through violent abuse as a child, which gave me PTSD and permanent nerve damage (so I’m about 90% bedridden disabled with mobility issues), and I wasn’t allowed to cry at my Grandma’s funeral, and was terrified of expressing emotions in case I got violently beaten up. I adored my grandmother, she was one of the few relatives that stood up to my parents abuse and was always kind to me, so her death hit me hard, but I apparently wasn’t allowed to express myself and openly grieve because my father told me it was “weak”. There’s too many toxic parents/grandparents out there who think someone expressing themselves is a massive cardinal sin, when really crying is a natural emotion.
I'm so sorry, that sounds horrific 😢
You have my support. 💙
I'm so very sorry your innocence was stolen by horrible people. Praying now for healing for your heart and soul...
Thank you for your prayers, love and support! I have an unofficially adoptive family who love me for who I am and understand me! I live in a city that has decent medical support so I’ve had professional trauma/PTSD related therapy, am medicated and have a really good medical team, my therapist sat with me at length as I described being unable to cry, and she also understood that I know it’s a natural emotion, but it’s not one I can easily express two decades later. Apparently it’s so ingrained into my brain that it’s part of me now, my PTSD kicks in if I want to cry and will stop me, so I’ve learnt coping mechanisms for when this happens.
It sucks, not gunna lie, but I’ve no contact with my biological family and mentally I’m so, so much happier, stable and free, the past few years have been the best for me mentally by cutting all contact, and my adoptive family was there for me right away by my side!
@@ZombieSazza I'm so glad it all worked out for you! I hope you never, ever, EVER see those monsters (they don't deserve to be called "family" in anyway, biological or no) again! May God continue to bless you for the rest of your life.
Never heard of someone trying to break into a house they allegedly want to buy, so either he was looking to stay somewhere for free whilst on holiday, or he wanted to steal as much as possible
Option 3, like he said, try before you buy... Or are given it by squatter rights.
All those crazy people should be arrested AND prosecuted for calling the 911 emergency line for stupidities.
Also, entitlement should be declared as against the law for it can conduct to deplorable behaviors.
I agree with this.
I agree. There needs to be a steeper penalty for false reports.
The last story: Thumbs up and much praise for the landlord and the realtor. They sounded like decent people. I hope they get rewarded with booming business, thanks to good karma.
Yeah, grandma is so sad she lost her husband she already has a new man-friend. What a vile, disgusting p.o.s. So sorry to your daughter op.
That's how some people are, they're so afraid of being alone or of hurting, or so utterly lost on their own that they rush into the next relationship. It's not necessarily healthy, but they're not necessarily in a good state of mind to be making good decisions in.
But couple that with grandma being drunk and stoned out if of her gourd and having a lifelong history of narcissism and it's a completely different story.
Just crackhead things
Dude Story 3 has me in absolute rage. The fact she told a mourning child that she could not be sadder than a woman who *somehow got over grief and started dating shortly after losing her husband* makes me shake. I really dislike people who tell others to "get over a loss." I can't stop shaking. (Note: This happened to me when I lost my cousin who was like an older brother to me. He had medical problems but never let it control who he was. The sweetest and most gentle person I ever met. Hearing about him passing hurt so much that my job actually let me take some time off. At the time my sister hated his father and told me that I should not be so sad over a cousin and expected me to be worse when she passes. She is an alcoholic who has literally had baby daddy after baby daddy and always manipulates anyone she knows.)
I know my dad was my oldest niece's best friend while he was alive. She was the apple of pawpaw's eye too. My dad died in Feburary of 2017 and my niece was brokenhearted. I know if anyone had told her she wasn't allowed to grieve, I know my brother would've punched their lights out. My niece still sleeps with a blanket on her bed that has the Marine Corps symbol of the Globe and Anchor with the Eagle atop of it that was on pawpaw's guest bed. Both her grandpas were Marines, so this young lady knows what it means when she hears someone say SEMPER DI
Fi
After my grandpa died, I kept one of his sweaters. I will occasionally wear it during panic attacks because it feels like he’s holding me. He would hold me while I had my attacks.
@@QueenSunstar I'm sorry that you suffer from panic attacks, but feeling like you're being hugged your grandpa must be a gentle and comforting way to come down from what can be an awful and I'm sure tramaitizing experience
@@kimberlycarder7730 It is. Grandpa and I were pretty close.
Rest in Heavenly Peace.
My Aunt (RIP) dropped my cousin off at my grandma’s doorstep when he was a teenager and disappeared for a year. Now that same cousin tries dumping his son, 13 off on my grandma’s doorstep! She’s 81 and dementia is setting in, my mother didn’t let this happen, now he’s thinking of giving him to an ex that wants him. This is a child he fought to see and be a part of his life, and once he gets him does this!
So sorry to hear that. Hope that you and ur family are doing good now
Fourth story: That man is the worst scammer ever. No one with at least one digit IQ will allow someone "try a house before buying it."
I could see it happening; just have them pay market rate rent but if they wind up buying, apply that rent towards the purchase price.
@@billsoo306 that's actually kinda smart
We have a child I work at that lost her grandfather a couple of years ago. During that time it was hard. She was only 5 at the time and hurting so much. We normally try not to cuddle the older kids too much, but whenever she would cry, we would hold her until she felt better. It was so sad to see. It took a few months for her to get back to her happy self. I could not imagine ever telling a child that she does not have the right to feel their emotions especially when they are going through something like that.
All of this to say, that grandmother was a complete, heartless bitch.
That story had me sooo angry! That poor family💔
And she is on drugs too😡
Story two..... Tell entitled SIL to go pound sand! Her problem is self inflicted.
Story three.... so entitled grandma thinks it's alright to "grieve" by partying hardy and screwing a new BF? And she marginalizes a child's grief? She is despicable. I'd advise OP to go hard no contact.
There IS NO timeline for grief and it’s definitely not a pissing match on who gets to grieve more! Ugh, ugh, ugh 🤦♀️
Yeah after that whole thing I would NOT have let her back into my life ever. Because in case you haven’t noticed grandma, YOU WERE NOT THE ONLY PERSON IN THE GRANDPA’S LIFE!
@@jeremydale4548 Absolutely!
2:06 as if the story was not clear enough. It does not matter how good a Surgeon is, if there are many patients throughout the day, and one or two possibly pass away, it is not the surgeons fault. Procedures and surgeries they can take multiple hours to complete.
I normally don't listen to "Entitled People" because the stories make me so mad, then I accidentally listen to one, get really mad, and remind myself why my blood pressure does not need this.
The wham who called 911 for the haircut should be cited for wasting 911 service.
'Grieving' grandma would be leaving my property on an ambulance gurney if she was behaving so atrociously around me! What a hideous individual.
I feel for that doctor. I'm a student nurse and I've worked on 2 wards so far and it''s not easy to lose a patient. You almost have to protect your heart to stop it from hurting. And sometimes it can really be hard to continue like nothing has happened when interacting with other patients.
"I'm GRIEVING. I'm MOURNING"
Yeah? Finding a new man in only 2 months dont seem much like either to me
My mom acted the same way when my dad passed, she felt only she had the right to mourn for him because she was his wife.
There is a follow up video to the haircut. The kid was 17 and the barber verified several times how short the kid said he wanted it done. The kid left paid and tipped the guy, then the mom came in later and started causing a scene
If someone told me too kick my grieving father out of his own house I’d just say “No way! You must be out of your mind!” Then hang up and block her number!”
When I was 12 we lost my Great Grandma. I capitalized the G in Great because she really was a great woman! She wasn't just our family matriarch, she was our best friend. Think of anything that would make an old lady amazing, and she had that trait. Even when she got Alzheimer's she still never lost her sweetness or her strength or her eagerness to love. She doesn't remember you and thinks she's meeting you for the first time? Doesn't matter! She loved you anyway! So needless to say, when she died I was DEVASTATED! Well on the day of her funeral I made the mistake of saying that I missed Grandma Nelly in front of my Grandma Barb, and she TORE INTO me! She told me that Grandma Nelly was only my Great Grandma, whereas she was Grandma Barb's Mom, that NOBODY could miss her as much as her, how DARE I say that I miss her?! Etc. The audacity of me, right?! How DARE a child miss an amazing person and beloved relative?! I'm sorry, but you don't say that! Especially to a child! I get that Grandma was grieving, but we all were. That's why we were there! It was Grandma Nelly's funeral, for crying in the sink!
Story 3:
Plankton ( to OP's _Mother_ ) : *“Someone Should Put You In A Box Floating Down River, Grandma !!!”*
Story 3 is so sad? OP is literally talking about HER DAD. She is so worried about her daughter that she only refers to the relationship between daughter and pop pop. And she has to defend her 7 year old against her mom as if SHE DIDNT JUST LOSE HER FATHER? HELLO? WHAT EVEN
I never heard of staying at a house before you buy it. Doing a walk-through with the Realtor and taking measurements to see if your furniture will fit and to see if you like the layout, yes.
I've done it twice. Bought the second house. Staying the night really gave me a good feel for which location was the best.
Piece of advice to anyone trying to become Step Mom/Dad - Never tell the kid to call you Mom/Dad - just say "Please, call me Martha/Mark." Trust me - divorced parents. Father has been married to R (wife #2) for 20+ years, and Mother's been in a relationship with D (Boyfriend #3 - let's just say that Boyfriends 1 and 2 had issues) for the same length.
Mother's Boyfriend - "Just call me D." Well, while we've had a few bumps along the road, especially him combating alcoholism, my brothers and I have a decent relationship with him. Been there for good times and bad.
Stepmother - "Call me Mom." Let's just say that in the 20 years since they've been married, my father has lost the respect of me and my brothers - we never call him, we never visit him, we never go fishing - and it's just plain sad.
Don't punish your Dad because he chose poorly.
Be the bigger man and show him love before he passes.
You'll thank yourself after he's gone.
Trust me when I say he needs you.
@@thisismagacountry1318 Sadly, he's burned all three bridges between me and my two brothers, and while I might be willing to bring along 2x4s in an attempt to rebuild them, someone else needs to bring the hammer and nails.
Sure, but what else could you lose over 1 beer.
It'll be worth it, despite the past.
Just my opinion.
@@thisismagacountry1318 Well, when your old man hits you in the back of the head, and says he never wants to see you again, it's going to take more than a beer to make things up.
God the first story, just reminded me of the fat embolism episode from house md, after he spent so long helping that lady, she still died and house outburst made my heart sink
Absolutely. When Foreman told him, it's not his fault and he just blew up at saying, that yes, he did everything right and she still died, why the heck should that make him feel any better.
Truly powerful scene in the whole series.
Crotch goblins 🤭🤭 NEVER heard of this term before... I can't stop laughing 🤣🤣
Story 1: "She tries to argue that he's a useless doctor" Okay Karen...then why would you want your child to be seen by "useless Doctor"? Get the fuck out!
Story 2: I would tell the EP that even when Dad has moved out she will NOT be moving in...period...end of story.
Story 3: OP did the best thing she could for her child...getting that crazy crack-head away from her daughter...not sure if I would have relented after only 1 year though.
Story 4: Yes...the "buyer" was absolutely trying to scam the realtor, the owners & OP...OP could have said that cops were on their way & the security cameras were recording.
Story #3: phu.. Wow! I would go no contact FOREVER!!
Your lack of planning does not constitute an emergency for me. I hope that sister-in-law got kicked out on the curb, and her kids taken to a better home by cps.
I bet that the lady that “didn’t like her son’s haircut” was just trying to get it for free by acting like she didn’t like it and the guy refused to comp it so she freaked out.
Unfortunately you see a lot of major jerks in the emergency room. Karen is not nearly a vile enough name for this woman. The poor parents that loss their child!
Wow! Wow! WOW! Some people are beyond rude, beyond entitled, beyond selfish.
Me: Ba ba black sheep have you any wool
DarkFluff: no ma’am no ma’am but I got stories for you!
Glad I subscribed to you!! 🧡
Pretty under rated
I really felt what that 6 year old girl was going through in story three. My grandma did the exact same thing it wasn’t even a year yet and she replaced him with someone else. I remember visiting and going inside to see an absolute stranger sitting on the coach and I’m standing there thinking who on earth is that. Then G-ma comes over and says this is my new boyfriend. I was still quiet young at the time and my first thought was grandma just replaced grandpa. My mom was pissed when she heard 11 year old me and my 8 year old brother crying that grandma replaced grandpa
Women have a greater need for support than men.
Imagine you're an elderly woman alone.
It might hurt, but it's not about you.
@@thisismagacountry1318 I'm considered elderly and I live alone and have lived alone basically half way thru my marriage. Women don't need a man to live with. . just phone number for a good handyman.
@@itsjustme7487 Or a good DIY video on TH-cam.
@@thisismagacountry1318 This is true. LOL.
God, that grandma story got my blood absolutely boiling.
We were at the memorial for my dad. A good friend of his was crying on and off and I wasn't (pretty cried out by that point). She apologized and said she shouldn't be crying like that. I told her, I don't hold the monopoly on grief for my father. That isn't how grief works, and it's incredibly selfish to think because you were the "closest" to them, that others won't grieve just as much as you are. I let her know her feelings were valid and completely okay with me.
Got my Mr. Fluffington! SOOOO FLUFFY
I have dislocations every day and I won't go to hospital as I just 'pull myself together' lol. The only time in the past 3 years I went it was because I'd sliced part of the side of my fingertip clean off (I'm on blood thinners for life) and even then I WALKED there, only a mile away thank goodness, with my finger wrapped in kitchen paper towels. You can imagine what I looked like, I use a walker and was leaving a small blood trail due to the paper not absorbing any more lol.
The EM from the last story has me wondering whether he had ulterior motives other than measurements, i.e., robbery or even assault. Creepy!
My thoughts to!!!she was alone and no one was home next door.
I'm glad grandma got some help. Her new guy may have had no idea of all the family drama going on. How does one treat their 6-7 yo granddaughter that way!
The last story, OP is very fortunate the door was locked or she may have ended up in a freezer or the ocean. I doubt he was returning to measure or he would had knocked BEFORE trying the door knob.
Many decades ago I was a kid and we lived in Honolulu (dad was in the military) and one night mom has to go off to the base hospital. Quite a bit of pain, but not life threatening - what was once referred to a "female problems." Probably got there around 2200 and by 0600 the next day had yet to be seen. As this was circa 1971, the doctors and staff were al rather busy taking care of folks that a few hours earlier had been injured in Vietnam. Around 0730 some colonel's wife (at this time colonels were a nickel for two dozen) who begins griping and complaining to the corpsman on duty that she can't be seen right away - a proto-Karen I suppose. Mom, in pain, on minimal sleep and watching injured and badly injured young men coming through got up, walked over to Mrs. Important and read her the riot act, pointing out that the doctors were busy fixing up wounded young men injured or maimed in combat and that Mrs. Important needed to sit down, shut up, and let the doctors help those who really needed it. Funny thing, the corpsman found a doctor for my mom not long afterwards.
*RESPECT!* Corpsman was probably tempted to salute her, too.
Your mom was a superhero and while in pain! Wow.
Me: Binging old videos
DarkFluff: *Uploads*
Me: *BREAKS THE SPACE TIME CONTINUUM TO REACH THE VIDEO*
Im sure the Mom wanted her son's hair cut how she wanted and the kid asked for it to be cut how he wanted and that's why she was upset. I've seen that happen before.
That opening is proof that Karen's come in many shades. 😆😆😆
There are many shades of idiots.
Isn’t that a criminal offence, calling 911 without proper cause?
Yay! Darkfluff uploaded! I love this content, it never fails to make me smile!
Also, I’m sending good vibes to stevo! Hope he knows how much we appreciate him!
The little girl and her late grandpa are heartbreaking. My nieces (ages 6, 4, and not quite 2) worship the ground my dad walks on. He's the only grandpa they have, and Papa is their best friend. I would break people in half if they ever respond to their grief in such a heartless way.
Story 2, I’m told a trauma surgeon has a life span of about 5 years before burn out
I sold a house and the buyer wanted to live in it for 3 months to test it!...I absolutely denied it. She bought the house anyways, but that was a crazy request.
Smh at the entitled grandma story. Like really? REALLY?
The stories were great! Thank you!
Hope you’re having a great day Dark Fluff!
Thanks! I always am! I hope you're having a wonderful day too. ✌️✌️✌️✌️🙏
That guy was looking for a free vacation. No One Ever spends the night to decide if they are going to buy.
Story 1: her kid probably got punched for acting like her
She's lucky *she* didn't get punched by one of the grieving parents. If the doctor hadn't "rudely" hurried her out, she might have been.
@@erickpoorbaugh6728 Agreed. If some idiot Karen had done that to me, SHE would’ve needed treatment afterwards because I would definitely have not been responsible for my actions, and it takes a LOT to piss me off!
Best way to deal with a Karen/Racist.
Grandma with new boyfriend Story: If I were OP, not only would I call CPS and report her for Mental Child Abuse, I'd also call a Lawyer and both Sue her for the Mental and Emotional Pain and Suffering she caused her Granddaughter, but I'd also apply for a FULL Restraining Order (No Contact with her Granddaughter, stay a MINIMUM of 100 Yards away, stay off my property/Granddaughter's home stay off Granddaughter's School Property) and also call my Daughter's School and tell them that her Grandma is PERMANENTLY Banned from ALL contact/Information regarding Granddaughter and if Grandma even steps one toe onto School Property, they are to IMMEDIATELY call the Police and have her Arrested.
So the follow up- the story about the mom?
Is you’ve blocked her from your and your child’s life right? Like any other sane person? Just because she has the same dna doesn’t mean she should be in your child’s life. I’d say allowing her to be around is abusing the 7 year old. So get some stones mama and keep your psychotic mother away
Hi Dark Fluff. Do you know that the black sheep's horns are curling round his head in the wrong direction?
0:48 I truly hope she gets brought up on charges for misusing 911/police resources!
Last one... Yes, that creep was absolutely trying to get a place for free for his Summer vacations.
Story 1:
It’s easy to tell if someone has lasting issues. We’re primarily concerned with a concussion. If the pupils are both dilated equally, then there’s nothing to worry about. You can shine light into the eyes to really see, but it’s not always necessary.
The kid wasn’t even disoriented.
Other than that, we’re concerned about bleeding, burns, dying skin, etc. but recognizing that requires even less “special” knowledge.
Admit it, we’re all here for the “I Love you” at the end ❤️
"You cannot grieve more than me"
Eh, love. You got yourself a new boyfriend with in the few days of your husband's death. I am pretty sure from that, you are not grieving at all and just putting on a show to make others feel sorry for you while saying something so vile to your 7 year old granddaughter.
the grandparent story hits me hard…i was 8 when my great grandpa passed 3 days before christmas eve, no one said i had no roght to cry. i was 24 when i lost my grandpa, no one said that me and i didnt know the man even had cancer till after he died. then this past january, i lost my dad im 32 almost 33 and not even mom has said nothing like that grandmother

Karen hospital story:
I pulled a muscle in my right side ladt night and had too much pain this morning to drive the 20 mins to the ED much less the 27 mins to Urgent Care (which I admit is more appropriate) because there was no way I could reach over to put a vehicle in Reverse or Drive. I apologised to the ambulance staff because they could have been saving a life. I packed up cell, headphones, power cords and a USB multiport because I knew my muscle pain was bottom of priority in an ED. I apologised to my nurse, RT, doctor and PA because my pain was not as important as someone's life.
I've sat and watched loved ones pass. I feel for that surgeon and the parents of the 16 yo girl. Bravo, Dr!
Good Craic and Whiskey. This is a great name for a Irish Bar that has live music and dancing
Pretty obvious that the dad in the last story didn't actually care about measurements. If he really wanted to know he could've asked the realtor, or contacted OP and asked them to measure for him. Would've been way less creepy and invasive.
story two: to quote Nothing More:
"Talk like a man
But walk like a child"
That jerk in the last story was trying to pull some Eddie Murphy in Beverly Hills Cop 2 shenanigans lol
Story three: When my grandpa died, I came home from work to an answering machine message from my mom "grandpa died. " We all lived in the same town. When it was time for his service, my mom whispered to me, "cry and I will beat you! Your grandma doesn't need to see your tears."
First off, are u ok? Second off, pls tell me u cried at the funeral.
@@lamarasawyer850 I am better after years of therapy. So, I am in a better place. No, I did not cry at his funeral. Ironically, a few years later my step-grandma died. I might have met her three times in total. The job I was working at gave bereavement leave. I took it. I was honest with my manager that I was only taking the time off for the three days paid and since I could the two days before it and after the three as my days off. I made it for a mini vacation. Anyway, I went to her service and cried for my grandpa, but no one knew that, they assumed I was crying for her.
Thank you for caring and asking!
For story #3, that sounds like grandma just wanted an excuse to do whatever she wanted. My grandmother behaved similarly. Not to that extant, but became VERY entitled, selfish, and uncaring which was very different than how she used to be when I was growing up, before my grandfather died. Whenever she was confronted for her behavior it was always crocodile tears and a sob story of "I'm old that means I can do what I want! YOU cant tell me what to do! I can finally do things that *I* want!" Etc. Now at first I tried to be understanding because I loved my Grandma and she had helped me alot growing up, so I was willing to let some things slide, but after she had stolen everything that my grandfather left "us kids", and when she started throwing FULL ON TEMPER TANTRUMS like a toddler when things didnt go EXACTLY as she wanted, best example was when, during a family get-together with all us kids for once, she was mad because right before we were about to take a family photo with her and us kids (which was sort of a tradition) she got upset because her new bf (nobody liked because of his very poor attitude towards everyone in the family) told her that the youngest (about 4 or 5 at the time) was doing something (dont 100% remember because this was many years ago) He didnt do that and wasnt even close to where the bf said he was, and us older kids had been watching him (the next youngest before him was about 16) He had been in plain view of all of us the entire time, but my grandmother chose to believe the bf over us. She then wanted him to stop playing and to come inside to do chores (this was his first time at my grandmother's place, and the things she wanted him to do he had never done before such as laundry, and cleaning out the garage among other things 🤦♀️ I'm honestly not sure what she was expecting) Anyway, as us kids are trying to persuade her that, if she wants those things done WE can help her, that the kid didnt do that thing, she starts with the crocodile tears. Now my mom, thinking it would help to distract my grandmother, said it's time for the photo. Us kids took the hit, saying "come on grandma, let's go take a nice photo", but she wasnt having it. She DEMANDED the kid do those things, and if not "Either I'm not in the picture or HE'S not!" Somehow we were able to get her to agree to the picture and she pouted the entire time. The boy tried to hug her and say sorry immediately after the picture, but she pushed him off and ran inside and refused to come out of her room. Reminder, this woman was in her 70s, had raised 4 kids and had helped with the grandkids. I do not know what happened to the woman I used to know and look up to, but she only got worse as the years went on. Eventually she got to the point where she is basically living with the bfs family, acts as though they are her own, and treats her own like we are expendable, only around when she needs something done, and that's it. The loving, caring, understanding woman I grew up with is gone, and it breaks my heart, but it's her choice.
Third story... Granny'll probably flip her 'vette in a high-speed chase with the cops trying to dodge a Mann Act beef...
The Karen in the ER is something that happens pretty much every shift, every day, at least once per shift. Some Karens are actually patients that have had a cold or flu for 3 weeks and are tired of it (not that it has gotten worse, they're just tired of it, so, not an emergency). Some will actually assault the receptionist. Boy, could I tell you tons of stories about EP's in the ER! When I worked (night shift) in Las Vegas, we got some really bad cases that were a mess: knife fights, gun shots, gang violence, suicide attempts, domestic violence, car wrecks, etc. The policy in our ER was to let the people know, at least every 30 minutes, how long we thought it would be yet and if we had a critical case (or 3). Every once in a while, when some EP wouldn't shut up about how long they had been waiting, I'd grab them by the collar, drag them to the doorway of the trauma room, where bloody gauze packs were piling up around the gurney and at least 8 people were in the room doing everything they could to save the life of the unfortunate one, and yell at the EP: "THERE! Now you know why you have to wait! Is your cold, flu, or little boo-boo more important than THAT?" At which point they usually fainted and I left them laying there on the floor and went back to the trauma at hand. When they woke up, they shakily stumbled back into the waiting room, ashen and trembling, and made not another peep. Sounds harsh, I know, but it is against the law to interfere with emergency personnel engaged in trying to save a life. I like to think the EP's I had to deal with that way changed their entitled ways.
Story 2: I would allow her to move in and then immediately evict her saying that she is a horrible person and is unfit to live in any property I own. (Of course I would let my grieving dad in on the plan to help teach her a lesson. I wouldn’t just spring something like that on a grieving man out of nowhere)
Never clicked so fast to hear these stories
Oh, when I was in the ER last week with an extensive DVT in my left leg, there were a couple of “Karens,” but no EKs. One of them was having a fit over wearing a face mask. In a hospital.
I wouldn't feel safe in my home either if that happened? Breaking into my home, just to measure the space? If it was me, I would have 9-1-1 ready on my phone so I can call the guy on him for trespassing, BUT I'm satisfied that the dude didn't show up after that incident and I feel sorry for OP.
I’m listening to this with my new darkfluff plushie!!!
I stayed a night at a house I was interested in buying. Gave me a chance to see the road traffic and such. I would never have done so nor even asked to do so if the place had been occupied.
I knew a nurse whom specialized in ER care. She's currently a nurse practitioner and iIMNSHO is as good as a doctor. Won awards and all that. About twenty years ago she hired onto a service in California, in the LA area, that provides temps for overloaded hospitals. She ended up quitting, breaking the contract, after the abusive treatment she got in some LA ERs. She'd been threatened several times, with knives/guns/whatever from folks who thought their people weren't being taken care of quickly enough.
Story 2 -
I sincerely hope that this family said NO to this woman.
I hope that they are talking honesty with her regarding her unacceptable behaviour and actions. I hope they’re not just placating her with -
Yes SIL
No SIL
Anything you say SIL
And then scuttling away to complain on a reddit thread.
I mean, I sympathise with them I truely do, but there comes a point when you just have to say enough is enough, telling SIL No, she will not be moving into your property. Then you go NO contact and you stick to it.
If you think you can make her understand her behaviour, good luck. But if that’s the path you choose to go down then you will have to be prepared for a LOT of long drawn out “conversations” a lot of blame and crying etc etc.
if you do not have the time or the mental strength to deal with it then see my previous solution but after saying NO, give your SiL a letter expressing how you feel and basically everything you said in your reddit post - you could alternatively simply email your SIL a link to your reddit post and then commence going no contact.
It’s been 3 years since your post (maybe more) so, how did everything work out?
If they ended up doing a B & E, OP could have them arrested and trespassed....
Story 2: You KNOW she won't pay the rent! And that's part of why she wants THAT house.
Day #82 of telling fluff he’s beautiful too
Day #63 of telling stevo he’s beautiful
I had to pause the video just to comment on "Crotch Goblins" thats an insane way of discribing kids, in a funny way. Like something my country uncles would just reffer to kids in general as. Love it
Yeah I love it
the surgeon one, I'd be like "duck the hypocritic oath" *clobs karen in the jaw*
You just be creating business so win win
Safe in my home"? I've been robbed and burgled several times and even assaulted on my doorstep. That was before I installed 8 cameras in and around my home and gardens feeding into a digital 8 channel recorder. Only the assault was after I put up the cameras and caught from 3 directions. The perp was arrested the same night and not let out for a couple of days since he couldn't even be given bail until he'd been in front of a magistrate. He was arrested after the courts closed on the Friday, so he had to cool his heels until the following Monday. lol
Telling a grieving child they don’t have the right to be sadder then you… yeah I’d say OP has reasonable grounds to go NC permanently!
Story 3: i would tell that grandma to never ever contact us again. I would seek legal action to do so
If it is SIL, wouldn't the divorce mean she has no relation to your family ??? As it means EX-SIL. So I'd say EXIT. No longer married to my family, by choice you can't demand crap from my family.
Gotta love the Boston accent. Sadly I have one too 😂😂
What do u mean, sadly? It sounds like a great accent.
What the heck is wrong with these entitled Karen's?!
