FYI: Piercing guns are some nasty shit, and ear infections are mainly caused by them. Go to an professional piercer, they use sterile single use hypodermic needles which lowers the chance of ear infection significantly.
Yess. That’s how I got mine done, and I had no issues. My mum was very ‘anti piercing gun’ (thats the best way I can put it), at least for her own kids. Cuz she knew about the nasty side of the guns so both me and my older sister got them done at a proper place and it was pretty painless (except for my sister who was getting her second ones, but thats cuz she hates needles)
Definitely, I got my ears pierced with one and literally everything that could go wrong did go wrong Long story short now I have a little scar going down the middle of both my ears
got mine done with a needle at a professionals and it.... did not heal for 4 months... I also have a piercing bump behind my left lobe now which is painful, I don't think I'll get another piercing because I'm pretty sure it'll go the same way unfortunately :(
I got mine done at a mall stand with a piercing gun. They gave me too small of an earring, so the earring started to go IN to my ear. Then we went to another piercing place where they gave us new earrings, but I was allergic and for the past 8 months still have been too afraid to change the hypoallergenic earrings I got 💀
I'm 26 and never got my ears pierced through a combination of not being allowed when I was younger and having too much anxiety to do it as an adult. This video inspired me to finally do it
I love how you acknowledge your childhood/religious struggles while still showing so much respect and love towards your family. That is rare to see and it honestly is really refreshing to see from a content creator
@@shgurr see how Van Gogh acted in his own conduct with his family. Van Gogh, whilst albeit being a devout christian, clashed with his father, a super traditional clergyman of some sort, on many things, especially so opting for a life of being a struggling artist.
PSA: go to a tattoo shop instead of Claire’s!!! The piercers at tattoo shops are better trained and use piercing needles instead of the piercing guns which is better for healing and more sanitary.
A piercing studio would be even better because you know they're all trained for specifically piercings. Tattoo shops are definitely infinitely better than Claire's tho
when I was young I also really wanted my ears pierced.🤣 we got them done, with a gun at Claire’s and my ears were so irritated even weeks afterwards 😂 we tried many different materials & metals, nothing seemed to be good for me, so we removed them, retried later but this time with a gun at the SWAP MEET LOL and as you would guess, the same thing happened. As an adult, I was able go get them redone, with a professional piercer who used hollow needles, and the issue all along was getting pierced with a gun, i’m at a 00g in my lobes, no problems at all! Guns are so terrible I honestly don’t even know how they haven’t been banned yet.
You know my sister got her ears pierced there and they didn't do a very good job because she got an ear infection after that, but she was like.. ten, no I don't remember getting my ears pierced because I was only 3 years old I remember them doing it you know correctly since my ears are still pierced and nothing happened but the amount of people I've heard of getting their ears pierced their and something going wrong is like concerning lol
@@fortysiixandtwo No I'm pretty sure I was Pierced with a gun and I was fine, that's just your bad experiences and I don't understand how the equals all piercing guns are bad, I was fun and it was professionally done, I only cried because I was three and it hurt, there was no infection and no itching, I just wore earrings after that, they were fishes. lol.
@@mrce420.7guns are literally proven to be more harmful than an actual piercing needle, tons of stories similar to mine, met tons of ppl who would agree with me, you in particular having no rejection doesn’t change the fact that guns are dangerous. I mean good for you that you were fine i guess? Lmao?? A true professional would NOT have used a piercing gun btw. Any amount of research will tell you that forcing a blunt object through flesh causes more trauma than a sharp, hollow needle would. Which you should totally do some research yourself since you think there’s absolutely nothing wrong with guns 💯💯
This is a really cute story. Also kinda hits way too close to home for me personally. Can definitely relate to the whole "parents didn't let me do X when I was younger and now struggle with the concept that I'm not allowed to do it as an adult" thing. Building self-esteem is hard. lol.
My mom always had this rule for me growing up: “You can’t do something till you’re old enough when I did it, then you can do it!” So I could’ve gotten a second piercing at 15, a tattoo at 17, and drank at 19! However I was sadly a goodie two shoes in a a lot of things. Plus I knew that stuff like that was permanent, and saw plenty of my classmates get stuff they ended up regretting, so I waited till I was 17 to get my second piercing (though I did have to have it close up when I was in the army) and my first tattoo ended up being my 21st birthday present from my mom as I was sick for that birthday so I couldn’t go out drinking. And I’m actually glad I waited and got something that I really liked. I’m thinking now that in my 30s, I want more stuff. Especially tattoos, I only have 5 at the moment, and want like 20 more!
"i respect you and will do as you say!" the playbook has seen *much* use over the millennia lol 😂 cool that the sisters did eventually get to have the earring experience as well!
Growing up with overly strict parents messes up with you, doesn't it? It takes so much time and effort to go back through every fallacy you've internalized about the world and yourself, but man, it's such a beautiful path to go through. A beautiful tragedy
as a guy who also grew up in a similair envirioment and wanted earrings this video was such an eye opener. Than you so much you've given me the confidence to do more for myself and do what i wanna for me thats invaluable hope oyu have a nice day
For so many years, I dreamed of my grandmother and I visiting the town where my grandmother grew up. I wanted to experience it through her eyes, hear her stories, and have her point out the places that meant so much to her. We always thought we had all the time in the world, so we kept putting it off. Then she had a fall and needed surgery, but the plan was always to go once she recovered. It was going to be such a special trip. Sadly, my grandmother passed away last Saturday, and we never got to make that journey. Don’t wait-time slips away faster than you think.
the feeling you are talking about when you looked at those younger girls in line for their piercing is what I call "age unbalance" when someone younger does something you feel like you should have done at their age or younger.I have learned to deal with it by reminding myself its better to do the THING/maintain what progress I have made.Their will always be someone younger doing stuff whats important is just doing it when you feel ready and that its never to late to hit up old goals.
I understand my feelings now but at the time I kept waiting for my mom to take me causing the complex. I held out for something that was never a priority
This is such a frequent experience for me, took me a while to learn to move past the pain of this, combination of strict parents and growing up as a closeted trans person is fuuun
This video hits so close to heart if im being honest. I got my ears pierced at a very young age and pretty much sine young childhood my mom has told me that if I need anything I can just tell her. A few months ago we were at the mall and I said that when I started making money I wanted to share with her, but she stopped me and said: "Ive already lived my life, you're still young. As long as you're making money to support yourself without me needing to worry about it I'm happy". I SWEAR I'mma take her out to the mall one day and let her buy absolutely everything she wants. Thanks Shggur, love the vid :3
Growing up in the church like that, too, makes it interesting looking back at how such small things could be such a big deal. My youth taboo fascination was heavy/dark music (The Cure, Depeche Mode, Metallica, Alice in Chains, etc), and loved to wear t-shirts of my favorite bands. When I started to be around more church peers at school and attending early morning seminary I started to feel guilty about it. I would compromise by wearing a flannel shirt (this was the 90s...) over top when around church or family things. Eventually the guilt won and I gave away the shirts to my non-member friends and "cleaned up" my wardrobe, especially when preparing for my patriarchal blessing and mission. It's amazing how leaders could make you feel like the spawn of Satan over such little things like that. So happy you finally did what you always wanted to do! I now proudly wear my favorite band shirts all the time again.
I feel that endcard in my soul. I’m such a mama’s girl and she’s held my hand through just about everything in my life that when I use my big boy money I always have the need to ask her first. Which isn’t something common for a 20 yr old I don’t think
I hate feeling like I HAVE to have my mom's "ok" on everything cuz that's how I grew up. Always had to have parents permission or I'd get in trouble. So I wanted to go to Miku Expo this year and I told my mom I'd pay her for gas, time off work, food (if she needed any after getting me to the airport), and any other compensation and she still said "no". Why? Cuz it's too dangerous for a girl to go by herself to New Jersey. She wouldn't bat an eye if my bro went by himself. Ugh! So I took matters into my own hands and paid for flight, hotel, food, Uber, the works and got a ride courtesy of my counselor at the time. When the day was nearing, my mom found out and had my sister-in-law tag along. She wasn't mad or whatever, but like, girl you yelled at me in the car about this and now all of a sudden you're okay with it? I don't get my mom! Anyway, I got to go to Miku Expo and meet one of my online friends and it was the best day of my life.
it's all about control. Remember you are getting older, you're supposed to take more control of your life. Your parent is stuck in the babying phase. It's something we should all learn to do, stand up for ourselves.
omg that was so cool of you!! so sweet that even though you personally had to go through that, you're still thinking of your sisters, makes my heart melt
@@shgurr sounds a bit like you were playing 2nd mom, given the way you portrayed it, but also sounds like they needed it. At least y'all had a good time!
Yeah, some churches are very legalistic. A lot of them like to just justify enforcing their personal preferences on others in their church. I know you've had lot's of bad experience with churches Shgurr. But just know that not all religious people are out to get you. I love seeing your content and the honest things you talk about in them. I wish their were more people like you that just talk to people and be honest about their lives. Good to see you again Shgurr!
OMG SHGURR UPLOAD!! im so proud of you for working to break this cycle between your mom and your little sisters!! dont downplay yourself, if those earrings mattered so much to you, then they are important and not as small as you think. i relate because i wanted to get my nostril pierced, and even though im an adult, my mom said she "wouldn't allow it", so i did it anyway! she still hates it but i love it and thats what matters, it makes me happy. you and your needs matter!! keep doing what makes you happy :)
This is a very true to life story for someone who grew up in a very strict religion/household. Something as simple as an ear piercing can mean a lot as one of your limited freedoms, so it sucks to constantly have it yanked away from you. For me, it was getting my hair cut the way I wanted. People think I'm crazy when I talk about how upset I was about my haircuts as a kid, so i get why you might feel a bit strange thinking back to your ear piercing desires...
YOOOO thank you for still including my art the end even after all this time :,O The story was cute too!! It's hard nowadays to find vids that feel nice to watch, this was one of those, & also a good reminder that I should really pierce my ears sometime finally!!!!
God because I WAS a Mormon I now have really bad anxiety about everything and luckily because I was autistic I didn’t internalize everything and I kept everything out but that also led me to being easily controlled by others and being manipulated. I’m getting better at these things but it’s kind of just led me to being asexual and wanting to avoid it at all costs in order to not be controlled again. I am still young in my life so I have time to think and improve myself so I shouldn’t worry to much
Honestly as someone who's a younger sibling that has trouble asking for stuff that I really wanted (especially when I was younger), just you saying of how you took your siblings and got them the fake earrings made me remember all the times where my older siblings did almost the exact things taking me to the store and giving me the freedom choose some stuff that I liked. Just that feeling of not being nervous or afraid for asking I remembered made me happy. I'm sure that your siblings definitely love you and very much do love that memory of you giving them that same feeling.
i just got makeup for the first time, and i’m 20. it’s kind of wild how long you put this kind of stuff off for, and im so proud of myself for finally just doing it. glad to see it’s not just me 😭
I’m a Latter Day Saint but man, that’s just weird of her. I have a bunch of friends with controlling parents and it makes zero sense, good on you for giving your sisters a fun experience like this they might’ve never gotten. I don’t get how just some jewelry affects anything. I don’t have piercings right now cause mine got infected and hurt super flipping bad all the time (T-T), but I agree they’re so cool. Guys with piercings>>>
it's funny to me how you touched this. Since I was about 9, I wanted to get a piercing for my ear, but I definitely didn't want to get my ears pierced, specially since I'm a boy (man?) and that just felt unusual with my social circle, something too exclusive for women. So for years I never did anything around that idea, but the itch to get that piercing never went away either. Until one day I happened to find out what clip on were, and that changed everything. I even got the exact same piece as I envisioned all those years ago, and honestly I love them now, I go out with a single clip on more often than not and not only did my fears about it being too girly were completely unjustified, I legit like how I look and a lot of people complimented me on it,
After a decade of watching Shgurr, hearing her drop the DrEaDeD f bomb was unexpected, but still enjoyable anyways. Great video by the way!!!!! (Video again, Comment again!!).
I really like this style. I can tell it takes less time, but it makes your drawings so much more expressive. And it's funny that this is the next video you uploaded because my little brother recently got his ear pierced, much to the dismay of my parents. Talk about timing.
This whole video is relatable. I wanted to get earrings, but my mum made it out to be a scary thing (and I had a fear of needles growing up). So I never did it. I'm now almost 23 and have my ear lobes pierced and my left helix pierced. Plans are to get my seconds done next year >:D
7:54 maybe this is a bit of a jump in intensity but genuinely this message made me actually progress in my gender transition. I've been waiting for people around me to be kinder or to find people that will help me but I'm realizing that probably won't happen and I just need to do this for myself. A simple message with a big impact, thank you.
frrr, It takes your own effort to do it. I am thinking of looking more androgynous, but this idea still scares me as someone who live with strict parents 💀
Being exmo myself I know the hate that we were taught to have towards people who didn’t conform to “Gods” standards. It’s been 8 years since I last actually believed in mormonism, and I am much happier for it.
The Mormon earring thing is so real! I was lucky and got mind done when I was 12, but I had friends who were never allowed even 1 pair. I'm so glad you finally got yours!
Most of my friends at church had their ears pierced by the time they were 12, but I remember additional piercings being a big thing for a lot of people
@@MarwanHadidi They’re known as Latter Day Saints now, they’re a branch of Christianity who study the Book of Mormon along with the Bible and other texts. Rules change over time as prophets get new revelations, and times change. For example, polygamy used to be fine, as the majority of people also believed it was fine, but eventually a prophet decided that wouldn’t be acceptable anymore. The main church as it’s known today rejects polygamy, but there’s a smallish group of Mormons who decided they still wanted to do polygamy so they broke off and are doing their own thing. I’ve heard that in recent times more piercings are fine, along with other things. But, it’s all up to what you think is best. Just take care of yourself and treat your body well. If you think things over thoroughly, you can make the choices for yourself. We’re here to make decisions, and it’s not our place to judge others. (I realized writing this next part I got side-tracked, whoops) I myself am I Latter Day Saint, and I know everyone has different experiences. I know there’s a lot of people who have bad experiences with the church and I feel sorry for them, no one deserves that kind of stuff. There’s bad people no matter what. The Bible, which Latter Day Saints also study and follow, says that we should love our neighbor, and that’s how it should be. Jesus didn’t judge others, so neither should we. Latter Day Saints are encouraged to invite others, and make all feel welcomed, regardless of gender, age, sexuality, or appearance. Someone having a tattoo or piercing doesn’t necessarily affect their faith, it’s just an accessory. Wearing a necklace doesn’t change whether you get into Yale that day or not. Just like life, it’s all in the way you interpret it, and the choices you make. I’ve heard of many stories like this one where parents are unreasonable and just weird. People suck, but eventually those children will be able to move on and live their life how they want, and that’s the whole point.
@@MarwanHadidi The term Mormon is used to refer to members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. The church is somewhat known for having rules that many people consider strict, like boys can't get piercings of any kind and girls can only get one ear piercing.
As someone who also grew up in a religious household, the biggest restriction for me was movies. My dad didn’t allow me to watch a lot of movies simply because if there was some that HE didn’t like it was forbidden, mostly PG-13 movies but sometimes even G rated movies like Toy Story because he didn’t like Sid and how Buzz and Woody yell at each other. Which is funny because plenty of kids in the same religion watched those same PG-13 movies all the time with no restraint from their parents. 😢
I wanted earrings so bad as a Mormon boy tooo. I got mine peirced as an adult for my birthday and it was pure euphoria. Now I’m trans and haha that was against the Mormon rules too wasn’t it
😭 You came back. Also sadly I can’t ware earring my mother got them piresed when I was 3 and no matter how many time I tried to ware earring I ended up with and a ear infection that would cover my lower ears. But yeah welcome back. We do miss but even I know we just need a break from making videos.
The thing about overly strict parents is that then when you’re an adult, you have to figure out what’s actually fine and what’s actually bad from scratch. I went a little insane with it. But get piercings! Get tattoos! Not all drugs will ruin your life! It’s okay to have relationships! Etcetera.
@@TheShinyShrimp They commonly lead to infection and are easy for someone to cause serious damage. Having your ears ripped has happened to a few people I know. It also leaves noticeable holes.
Oh my watching your content again is just a self reflection resurrection just bc even though I’ve never gone through not being able to buy earrings but I’ve felt the feeling of being very internal and insecure about the things I really care about
I relate strongly to the exprerience and feeling you felt when you saw the girls getting their ears pierced with their moms, It's somewhat similar to growing up trans and wanting things that I didn't get to do because "no that's girly you need to act better" and stuff like that and still now seeing the stereotypical Teenage Girl TM life through people i see in the street, in the mall or online it feels like you've missed out yk, like I can go with friends to get dumb piercings that'll shock our moms, I can go grab starbucks while on a girls shopping trip, I've cried about boys while my friends were doing their makeup for a party but it feels too late kinda yk, I think it's inherently part of wanting something while it's forbidden Anyway i'm glad you got your ears pierced and I hope you can show off your dope ass hawaiian earings
Hey. I found you channel around 4 years ago and you've been my favorite youtuber since. you've inspired me to wanna become an animator and youtuber myself (even though I have almost no talent whatsoever). I don't really know how to end this since I suck at putting my thoughts into words and it's 11:30 at night, so if you ever read this, I just wanted to say thank you
I actually REALLY needed to hear that message near the end. For so long I've struggled with separation anxiety and it hasn't been until the past two years where I've finally grown out of my shell and started wanting to do things on my own rather than drag my mom or dad along with me because I was always too shy and anxious to do it by myself. It all comes with confidence I think. I'm 19 now and I'm planning to get my driver's license before my 20th birthday. Next on the list? Start living my life! No more holding back! Thank you, Shgurr. I hope life is treating you well. ^^
Growing up, my mom always had me and my brothers tell her if we were going somewhere or doing something. It's definitely been a tricky cycle to break, and more often than not, we'd just lie about what we were doing even if it wasn't anything bad.
I am glad to see you are uploading again! Having that shelf comparison is so true. I remember when my shelf fell and I couldn't go back either. I hope you are enjoying life without so many rules and expectations on you anymore. Hearing you curse was pretty awesome. Stay true to yourself!
I got mine done somewhere in my teens with my dad's gf/my stepmother at the time. When I got them, I developed this weird habit of spinning my earrings around so I wouldn't have any issues with it in the future.
The internalization part is all too real. Even worse when it becomes the next step of perceiving yourself as a coward trying to deny said internalization
For me the thing I wanted to do for awhile was to go to conventions like Vidcon and RTX that are more focused on internet content which Im into but not really the rest of my family and the conventions were always far away so I never brought it up. It wasn’t until I was in my twenties that I decided to go myself and I had a lot of fun and my folks are glad that I’m doing the things I want and being more independent!
When I was mormon, it was awesome to know there was an animation youtube like me. Now that i’m ex mormon… it’s nice to have an animation youtuber like me :)
I haven't watched your videos for the past 9 years The last one I saw was I think "Die in a Fire" And now I see you again. And I even remember your username. I had it somewhere, hidden on the surface of my brain for almost a decade, almost half of my entire life I know it may sound weird, but I missed you. The hit of nostalgia was just too much
2:34 Everyone better capture this moment. Idk if we'll ever get to hear Shgurr say 'fuck' ever again in our lives. Oh yeah btw just yesterday I was watching your old videos such at the Ugandan Knuckles meme and your other storytime videos like the apartment one and blood drive because they were super nostalgic to me, y'know watching them the first time when I was like 13 or 14 years old. And just now you drop this after being gone for like 7 months, hmm... what's going on here?
I was also part of that religion, but raised as a “boy” (not one anymore lol) so I couldn’t have mine pierced at all… I recently got my ears pierced too!!
this is what its like to be trans for me, you want something simple yet its a long time of not having it so when you get it, it becomes an amazing moment. it always seems like no big deal for the person who did the thing without challenges because they are numb to the thing.
My first big optional purchase as an adult was a used super cheap saxophone that I could definitely afford, and I called my parents to ask permission cuz I felt like I needed to for some reason. They gave me a soft no, and I reasoned with them a bit and then just decided to buy it anyway, realizing I didn't really need to ask in the first place. Since then I haven't felt the need to ask permission again, especially since they are no longer helping me financially (because they don't need to). Surprised them with my new helix piercing this summer when I went to visit! :D
That's quite late to buy an instrument. Mine bought 5 saxophones for me before I was even 16. Most of them were traded in for upgrades though. I did have a bad instance where one was dropped at a band camp, and the repair tech said he couldn't fix it because he didn't have the parts. I wish I would have thought about it sooner, but it actually was a stencil of a more expensive model, so he could have found parts. I don't think he was the best repair person.
@@ChrisF_1982 Well they had bought me a clarinet when I was like 10, the sax was my second instrument. And it's never too late to learn a new instrument anyway! That sucks about your broken one, though
As a little Mormon boy growing up I secretly wanted piercings, but of course that wasn't going to happen. Nowadays I don't want piercings, but I feel like I need to find some little rebellious thing to do. I'm an adult and haven't been to church in 3 years, I don't have to follow their rules! (But also I follow most of those silly made up rules anyways because that's just how I am and I don't really have a desire to break them even if I don't have religion forcing me to keep them).
I can empathize with your mom as she didn't restrict anything for religious reasons but rather was concerned with things like ear infection or it being expensive. Even if you may disagree with how the parent handles the living situation the family is trying to look out for each other.
Coming from a teenage guy, i wish i could get my ears pierced. I see my girl friends with earrings and they look so pretty. Can't wait until i'm out of the house to get my own!

Here's something that worked for me. Just fake it. Fake a personality long enough and you'll eventually absorb it
My mom always had this rule for me growing up:
“You can’t do something till you’re old enough when I did it, then you can do it!”
So I could’ve gotten a second piercing at 15, a tattoo at 17, and drank at 19! However I was sadly a goodie two shoes in a a lot of things. Plus I knew that stuff like that was permanent, and saw plenty of my classmates get stuff they ended up regretting, so I waited till I was 17 to get my second piercing (though I did have to have it close up when I was in the army) and my first tattoo ended up being my 21st birthday present from my mom as I was sick for that birthday so I couldn’t go out drinking. And I’m actually glad I waited and got something that I really liked. I’m thinking now that in my 30s, I want more stuff. Especially tattoos, I only have 5 at the moment, and want like 20 more!

I'm genuinely so surprised that you don't have a checkmark, I watch you quite frequently and you pop up in a lot of my friends feeds too.
Growing up with overly strict parents messes up with you, doesn't it? It takes so much time and effort to go back through every fallacy you've internalized about the world and yourself, but man, it's such a beautiful path to go through. A beautiful tragedy

For so many years, I dreamed of my grandmother and I visiting the town where my grandmother grew up. I wanted to experience it through her eyes, hear her stories, and have her point out the places that meant so much to her. We always thought we had all the time in the world, so we kept putting it off. Then she had a fall and needed surgery, but the plan was always to go once she recovered. It was going to be such a special trip. Sadly, my grandmother passed away last Saturday, and we never got to make that journey. Don’t wait-time slips away faster than you think.
Fr!
the feeling you are talking about when you looked at those younger girls in line for their piercing is what I call "age unbalance" when someone younger does something you feel like you should have done at their age or younger.I have learned to deal with it by reminding myself its better to do the THING/maintain what progress I have made.Their will always be someone younger doing stuff whats important is just doing it when you feel ready and that its never to late to hit up old goals.
I understand my feelings now but at the time I kept waiting for my mom to take me causing the complex. I held out for something that was never a priority
This is such a frequent experience for me, took me a while to learn to move past the pain of this, combination of strict parents and growing up as a closeted trans person is fuuun
This video hits so close to heart if im being honest. I got my ears pierced at a very young age and pretty much sine young childhood my mom has told me that if I need anything I can just tell her. A few months ago we were at the mall and I said that when I started making money I wanted to share with her, but she stopped me and said: "Ive already lived my life, you're still young. As long as you're making money to support yourself without me needing to worry about it I'm happy". I SWEAR I'mma take her out to the mall one day and let her buy absolutely everything she wants.
Thanks Shggur, love the vid :3
so good you have to see it twice

Growing up in the church like that, too, makes it interesting looking back at how such small things could be such a big deal. My youth taboo fascination was heavy/dark music (The Cure, Depeche Mode, Metallica, Alice in Chains, etc), and loved to wear t-shirts of my favorite bands. When I started to be around more church peers at school and attending early morning seminary I started to feel guilty about it. I would compromise by wearing a flannel shirt (this was the 90s...) over top when around church or family things. Eventually the guilt won and I gave away the shirts to my non-member friends and "cleaned up" my wardrobe, especially when preparing for my patriarchal blessing and mission.
It's amazing how leaders could make you feel like the spawn of Satan over such little things like that. So happy you finally did what you always wanted to do! I now proudly wear my favorite band shirts all the time again.
I feel that endcard in my soul. I’m such a mama’s girl and she’s held my hand through just about everything in my life that when I use my big boy money I always have the need to ask her first. Which isn’t something common for a 20 yr old I don’t think
start making decisions for yourself otherwise it'll never end. Parents tend to have a hard time udnerstanding youre not a 5 year old anymore lol
trust me, it’s normal to ask your mom about like finances and adult stuff, she should be a trusted adult in your life
@@shgurrI still try but my brother trys to push me around
3:53 omg i cant believe ur friends with Bakugo

I hate feeling like I HAVE to have my mom's "ok" on everything cuz that's how I grew up. Always had to have parents permission or I'd get in trouble. So I wanted to go to Miku Expo this year and I told my mom I'd pay her for gas, time off work, food (if she needed any after getting me to the airport), and any other compensation and she still said "no". Why? Cuz it's too dangerous for a girl to go by herself to New Jersey. She wouldn't bat an eye if my bro went by himself. Ugh! So I took matters into my own hands and paid for flight, hotel, food, Uber, the works and got a ride courtesy of my counselor at the time. When the day was nearing, my mom found out and had my sister-in-law tag along. She wasn't mad or whatever, but like, girl you yelled at me in the car about this and now all of a sudden you're okay with it? I don't get my mom! Anyway, I got to go to Miku Expo and meet one of my online friends and it was the best day of my life.
it's all about control. Remember you are getting older, you're supposed to take more control of your life. Your parent is stuck in the babying phase. It's something we should all learn to do, stand up for ourselves.
Ur animations make me rlly happy, and I rlly respect what you do. ty for being comforting even when my life wasnt
omg that was so cool of you!! so sweet that even though you personally had to go through that, you're still thinking of your sisters, makes my heart melt

@@shgurr sounds a bit like you were playing 2nd mom, given the way you portrayed it, but also sounds like they needed it. At least y'all had a good time!
Yeah, some churches are very legalistic. A lot of them like to just justify enforcing their personal preferences on others in their church. I know you've had lot's of bad experience with churches Shgurr. But just know that not all religious people are out to get you. I love seeing your content and the honest things you talk about in them. I wish their were more people like you that just talk to people and be honest about their lives. Good to see you again Shgurr!

OMG SHGURR UPLOAD!! im so proud of you for working to break this cycle between your mom and your little sisters!! dont downplay yourself, if those earrings mattered so much to you, then they are important and not as small as you think. i relate because i wanted to get my nostril pierced, and even though im an adult, my mom said she "wouldn't allow it", so i did it anyway! she still hates it but i love it and thats what matters, it makes me happy. you and your needs matter!! keep doing what makes you happy :)
Ayo exactly! Be yourself!

This is a very true to life story for someone who grew up in a very strict religion/household. Something as simple as an ear piercing can mean a lot as one of your limited freedoms, so it sucks to constantly have it yanked away from you. For me, it was getting my hair cut the way I wanted. People think I'm crazy when I talk about how upset I was about my haircuts as a kid, so i get why you might feel a bit strange thinking back to your ear piercing desires...
Exactly! Limited freedoms
Man, shgurr's mom's reactions to the most of the information sounds hilariously cruel... can't tell if it was a healty or not xddd
Just because your mom doesn't give you everything you want doesn't mean she has an unhealthy relationship with you

The story was cute too!! It's hard nowadays to find vids that feel nice to watch, this was one of those, & also a good reminder that I should really pierce my ears sometime finally!!!!
I think a lot of people are getting their ears pierced soon because of this video lol
God because I WAS a Mormon I now have really bad anxiety about everything and luckily because I was autistic I didn’t internalize everything and I kept everything out but that also led me to being easily controlled by others and being manipulated. I’m getting better at these things but it’s kind of just led me to being asexual and wanting to avoid it at all costs in order to not be controlled again. I am still young in my life so I have time to think and improve myself so I shouldn’t worry to much
RELATABLE
Oh no I really hope you’re doing okay. Things like that can really suck
Honestly as someone who's a younger sibling that has trouble asking for stuff that I really wanted (especially when I was younger), just you saying of how you took your siblings and got them the fake earrings made me remember all the times where my older siblings did almost the exact things taking me to the store and giving me the freedom choose some stuff that I liked. Just that feeling of not being nervous or afraid for asking I remembered made me happy. I'm sure that your siblings definitely love you and very much do love that memory of you giving them that same feeling.
i just got makeup for the first time, and i’m 20. it’s kind of wild how long you put this kind of stuff off for, and im so proud of myself for finally just doing it. glad to see it’s not just me 😭
Even though I am a boy I like your content very much, like listening to your stories and I also love how you respect your mom!

I’m a Latter Day Saint but man, that’s just weird of her. I have a bunch of friends with controlling parents and it makes zero sense, good on you for giving your sisters a fun experience like this they might’ve never gotten. I don’t get how just some jewelry affects anything. I don’t have piercings right now cause mine got infected and hurt super flipping bad all the time (T-T), but I agree they’re so cool. Guys with piercings>>>
Me exposing how many good things i see on my selft after therapy: 0:19
it's funny to me how you touched this. Since I was about 9, I wanted to get a piercing for my ear, but I definitely didn't want to get my ears pierced, specially since I'm a boy (man?) and that just felt unusual with my social circle, something too exclusive for women. So for years I never did anything around that idea, but the itch to get that piercing never went away either.
Until one day I happened to find out what clip on were, and that changed everything. I even got the exact same piece as I envisioned all those years ago, and honestly I love them now, I go out with a single clip on more often than not and not only did my fears about it being too girly were completely unjustified, I legit like how I look and a lot of people complimented me on it,
That's amazing 👏 😊
After a decade of watching Shgurr, hearing her drop the DrEaDeD f bomb was unexpected, but still enjoyable anyways.
Great video by the way!!!!! (Video again, Comment again!!).

I really like this style. I can tell it takes less time, but it makes your drawings so much more expressive.
And it's funny that this is the next video you uploaded because my little brother recently got his ear pierced, much to the dismay of my parents. Talk about timing.
This whole video is relatable. I wanted to get earrings, but my mum made it out to be a scary thing (and I had a fear of needles growing up). So I never did it. I'm now almost 23 and have my ear lobes pierced and my left helix pierced. Plans are to get my seconds done next year >:D
Ayo congrats!
I remember when my crush got piercings. I legitimately thought they were the coolest things ever
I also found piercings cool, my friends all got their ears pierced.
I love the message, i relate in having to not rely on parents so much for the things you feel and want. Its so sweet that you helped your sisters!
Another video?! What a treat

7:54 maybe this is a bit of a jump in intensity but genuinely this message made me actually progress in my gender transition. I've been waiting for people around me to be kinder or to find people that will help me but I'm realizing that probably won't happen and I just need to do this for myself.
A simple message with a big impact, thank you.

Being exmo myself I know the hate that we were taught to have towards people who didn’t conform to “Gods” standards. It’s been 8 years since I last actually believed in mormonism, and I am much happier for it.
Same!! 2.5 years for me. I have two sets of piercings now :]
The Mormon earring thing is so real! I was lucky and got mind done when I was 12, but I had friends who were never allowed even 1 pair. I'm so glad you finally got yours!
yeah some parents hate when their kids wanna indiviuate, they lose control
Most of my friends at church had their ears pierced by the time they were 12, but I remember additional piercings being a big thing for a lot of people
I hear about Mormon rules being unnecessary and stupid, but I don't even know what it is, what the hell is a Mormon?
@@MarwanHadidi They’re known as Latter Day Saints now, they’re a branch of Christianity who study the Book of Mormon along with the Bible and other texts. Rules change over time as prophets get new revelations, and times change. For example, polygamy used to be fine, as the majority of people also believed it was fine, but eventually a prophet decided that wouldn’t be acceptable anymore. The main church as it’s known today rejects polygamy, but there’s a smallish group of Mormons who decided they still wanted to do polygamy so they broke off and are doing their own thing. I’ve heard that in recent times more piercings are fine, along with other things. But, it’s all up to what you think is best. Just take care of yourself and treat your body well. If you think things over thoroughly, you can make the choices for yourself. We’re here to make decisions, and it’s not our place to judge others.
(I realized writing this next part I got side-tracked, whoops) I myself am I Latter Day Saint, and I know everyone has different experiences. I know there’s a lot of people who have bad experiences with the church and I feel sorry for them, no one deserves that kind of stuff. There’s bad people no matter what. The Bible, which Latter Day Saints also study and follow, says that we should love our neighbor, and that’s how it should be. Jesus didn’t judge others, so neither should we. Latter Day Saints are encouraged to invite others, and make all feel welcomed, regardless of gender, age, sexuality, or appearance. Someone having a tattoo or piercing doesn’t necessarily affect their faith, it’s just an accessory. Wearing a necklace doesn’t change whether you get into Yale that day or not. Just like life, it’s all in the way you interpret it, and the choices you make. I’ve heard of many stories like this one where parents are unreasonable and just weird. People suck, but eventually those children will be able to move on and live their life how they want, and that’s the whole point.
@@MarwanHadidi The term Mormon is used to refer to members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. The church is somewhat known for having rules that many people consider strict, like boys can't get piercings of any kind and girls can only get one ear piercing.
My sensitive body would spaz out if someone put a needle anywhere near my neck. To each their own I guess.
As someone who also grew up in a religious household, the biggest restriction for me was movies. My dad didn’t allow me to watch a lot of movies simply because if there was some that HE didn’t like it was forbidden, mostly PG-13 movies but sometimes even G rated movies like Toy Story because he didn’t like Sid and how Buzz and Woody yell at each other. Which is funny because plenty of kids in the same religion watched those same PG-13 movies all the time with no restraint from their parents. 😢

That's awesome! Earings are so much fun omg
😭 You came back. Also sadly I can’t ware earring my mother got them piresed when I was 3 and no matter how many time I tried to ware earring I ended up with and a ear infection that would cover my lower ears. But yeah welcome back. We do miss but even I know we just need a break from making videos.
The thing about overly strict parents is that then when you’re an adult, you have to figure out what’s actually fine and what’s actually bad from scratch. I went a little insane with it. But get piercings! Get tattoos! Not all drugs will ruin your life! It’s okay to have relationships! Etcetera.

Oh my watching your content again is just a self reflection resurrection just bc even though I’ve never gone through not being able to buy earrings but I’ve felt the feeling of being very internal and insecure about the things I really care about
Don't leave for the milk again 💀
I relate strongly to the exprerience and feeling you felt when you saw the girls getting their ears pierced with their moms, It's somewhat similar to growing up trans and wanting things that I didn't get to do because "no that's girly you need to act better" and stuff like that and still now seeing the stereotypical Teenage Girl TM life through people i see in the street, in the mall or online it feels like you've missed out yk, like I can go with friends to get dumb piercings that'll shock our moms, I can go grab starbucks while on a girls shopping trip, I've cried about boys while my friends were doing their makeup for a party but it feels too late kinda yk, I think it's inherently part of wanting something while it's forbidden
Anyway i'm glad you got your ears pierced and I hope you can show off your dope ass hawaiian earings

I actually REALLY needed to hear that message near the end. For so long I've struggled with separation anxiety and it hasn't been until the past two years where I've finally grown out of my shell and started wanting to do things on my own rather than drag my mom or dad along with me because I was always too shy and anxious to do it by myself.
It all comes with confidence I think. I'm 19 now and I'm planning to get my driver's license before my 20th birthday. Next on the list? Start living my life! No more holding back!
Thank you, Shgurr. I hope life is treating you well. ^^
Growing up, my mom always had me and my brothers tell her if we were going somewhere or doing something. It's definitely been a tricky cycle to break, and more often than not, we'd just lie about what we were doing even if it wasn't anything bad.
I am glad to see you are uploading again! Having that shelf comparison is so true. I remember when my shelf fell and I couldn't go back either. I hope you are enjoying life without so many rules and expectations on you anymore. Hearing you curse was pretty awesome. Stay true to yourself!
I got mine done somewhere in my teens with my dad's gf/my stepmother at the time. When I got them, I developed this weird habit of spinning my earrings around so I wouldn't have any issues with it in the future.
Lol that was about the same story as mine I went and got my 2nd piercings w my dad's gf and I'd spin them so I can make sure the pain goes away
The internalization part is all too real. Even worse when it becomes the next step of perceiving yourself as a coward trying to deny said internalization
I'm a man, and my mother pierced both my ears herself with a simple sewing needle when I simply asked her...
I wanted to get my ears pierced so bad, but my Mormon parents would have punished me for even asking.
For me the thing I wanted to do for awhile was to go to conventions like Vidcon and RTX that are more focused on internet content which Im into but not really the rest of my family and the conventions were always far away so I never brought it up. It wasn’t until I was in my twenties that I decided to go myself and I had a lot of fun and my folks are glad that I’m doing the things I want and being more independent!
YES! DO THE THINGS

Oh yeah btw just yesterday I was watching your old videos such at the Ugandan Knuckles meme and your other storytime videos like the apartment one and blood drive because they were super nostalgic to me, y'know watching them the first time when I was like 13 or 14 years old. And just now you drop this after being gone for like 7 months, hmm... what's going on here?

A part of FNAF childhood (and probably the main reason why I love FNAF) has returned
this is what its like to be trans for me, you want something simple yet its a long time of not having it so when you get it, it becomes an amazing moment. it always seems like no big deal for the person who did the thing without challenges because they are numb to the thing.
My first big optional purchase as an adult was a used super cheap saxophone that I could definitely afford, and I called my parents to ask permission cuz I felt like I needed to for some reason. They gave me a soft no, and I reasoned with them a bit and then just decided to buy it anyway, realizing I didn't really need to ask in the first place. Since then I haven't felt the need to ask permission again, especially since they are no longer helping me financially (because they don't need to). Surprised them with my new helix piercing this summer when I went to visit! :D
That's quite late to buy an instrument. Mine bought 5 saxophones for me before I was even 16. Most of them were traded in for upgrades though. I did have a bad instance where one was dropped at a band camp, and the repair tech said he couldn't fix it because he didn't have the parts. I wish I would have thought about it sooner, but it actually was a stencil of a more expensive model, so he could have found parts. I don't think he was the best repair person.
@@ChrisF_1982 Well they had bought me a clarinet when I was like 10, the sax was my second instrument. And it's never too late to learn a new instrument anyway! That sucks about your broken one, though
clicked cuz the thumb was perfectly appealing and balancedly designed, stayed cuz the video is also great and relatable
As a little Mormon boy growing up I secretly wanted piercings, but of course that wasn't going to happen. Nowadays I don't want piercings, but I feel like I need to find some little rebellious thing to do. I'm an adult and haven't been to church in 3 years, I don't have to follow their rules! (But also I follow most of those silly made up rules anyways because that's just how I am and I don't really have a desire to break them even if I don't have religion forcing me to keep them).
I haven't had your videos recommended in a while! I've been a fan since pre covid!
I can empathize with your mom as she didn't restrict anything for religious reasons but rather was concerned with things like ear infection or it being expensive. Even if you may disagree with how the parent handles the living situation the family is trying to look out for each other.
I’m starting to see more and more story time animators and I’m so happy ngl
Hope youre doing good, Shgurr.
