That first story’s *BRUTAL!* Talk about trading a half-dollar for a nickel and three pennies! More coins= more good, *right?!?!!* And not only that, the Super Nintendo games he DOES have are useless now.
I was being suspected for a murder I didn't commit. (There was no murder but he disappeared under suspicious circumstances that looked very bad for me) The police obviously thought it was me, and wanted an interview. I decide to talk to a lawyer because I'd never had problems with the law, and wanted to know what to do. My mother was livid. She actually yelled at me over this and thought the it made me look suspicious as if it wasn't already a factor in the situation that led the police to want to talk with me in the first place. She literally screamed at me for wanting to be prepared, before I became another statistic for people who get railroaded by a detective who has blinders on. (Though props to the detectives, they didn't, and they ended up finding the evidence that cleared me)
My favorite response to people like your mother came from my cousin, back when she used to be an LEO. My cousin used to believe the same thing your mother does, but her five years on the force proved it - along with many other beliefs about police (not all, granted) - to be horribly horribly wrong. Her response: "If there were no bad cops or bad investigations, then there would be no need for entities like Internals Affairs or The Innocence Project."
It's better to be prepared for the worst and not need to be than blindly trusting everyone and everything and getting wrecked. I'd rather be a little paranoid than too trusting. I've already experienced the worst of people, more times than I care to remember.
my mom doesn't know how to google anything despite being in her 50s. She grew up with computers just like I did. She's not old she's just willfully stupid
See ppl.in their 50's didn't f Grow up with computers . They went mainstream till we were maybe in our 20's and they were different from today's and we did not live on them 24/7 like you all do today. So yes still been around a while but hardly Grew up with them.
I'm 50 and I didn't get to use a computer until I was 18 and a senior in high school. Also didn't have my own personal home computer until I was 27 so maybe think before you open your mouth. Yes our generation did create most of the apps used today but we were not raised by that screen.
Anything new terrified my parents. If we went to a new restaurant or store, they would shake in fear. By the time I was 8, they were pushing me forward to explain things to them. It would have been okay if they'd been nice about it, but later, they felt they had to belittle me to make up for their weird cowardice.
If I had to describe it, it would be 'doctor envy'. They want to be considered the ones healing the patients instead of just looking after their care, but don't have the finances or intelligence to become an actual doctor, so they readily accept any hokey snake-oil system to foolishly believe they're just as good or better.
My biological eff-wit once got taken for 5 grand because they convinced him I was in the local big house in a bad neighborhood nearby, and that he needed to pay them in a wire transfer. He did not think to call me until houuuuurs after when his mid-80s butt was frantically driving in the dark and foul winter weather around this crappy neighborhood looking for me because these random scammers told him I was in trouble. I was meanwhile blissfully unaware until he called me, sitting in a friends' kitchen over a thousand miles from where he thought I was. There wasn't another sucker born for a full day after he was, I swear.
My mom is in her 60s, and she asks me how to spell basic words. 😒 Well, time to install Grammarly on her browser. Also, she refuses to understand the fact that my brother and dad are narcissists, and that the former is manipulative.
For that first story, my mom would’ve done something similar, except she slightly more educated on that subject. A lot of her hobbies she doesn’t understand, but she does accept. The guy, whose father or father-in-law is essentially Lord of the raccoons? You pour poor, unfortunate soul, and I understand, jerk, parents, OK, I just got back from spending Thanksgiving with the jerk side of my family. The story that immediately follows that one, dear Lord God, try to do anything with your mother must be absolutely exhausting. Granted, my mother did do something similar with a tick, yes, it did come off our dog, yes, he did have flea and tick repellent on. The repellent was such that the chicks could land, however, they could not attach. She put it in a plastic bag and let me feel it, because this is what happens when your eyesight sucks due to rare genetic condition. I’m not that fond of insects to begin with, but I’m generally a live and let live unless of course, they decide that you are part of their lifecycle. Ask for any and all diabetes stories, Lord help you. Especially if they are being gifted or given the wrong kind of food, I.E.more carbs than I know to do with. All carb, short for carbohydrate, essentially a mixture of carbon and hydrogen, breaks down into sugar, but not all sugar is based in carbon/hydrogen chain equals carbohydrate. Something like that. I totally get your frustration.
Ok so this requires quite some backstory...I have a flesh colored mole in a dimple under my lower lip, it's not very obvious unless you know it's there or you go looking for it, when I was a teenager I started growing a soul patch there...not because I wanted to but because shaving was still new to me and I would constantly nick the mole if I tried to shave there so I didn't...when I was about 16 I had this patch and one day was talking to my mom when she reached up, grabbed it, and yanked it all out...I was screaming and shouting at her, calling her names and so forth and she, in tears, told me she didn't think it would hurt...so yeah don't know if that classifies as being stupid but I think she is. I still hold it against her, and I'm 45 now
Even if you are young, perfect health and without anything substantial, name a beneficiary on your accounts. Sit down with a lawyer once per year so that if something does happen, your family isn't wondering what to do with your stuff. If you have a retirement account and didn't tell anyone because your single, include that with the lawyer too, because after a certain amount of time your accounts go unclaimed or without activity, they can claim them.
And if you have kids, let them know your wishes, make sure they know the basics like how to manage money, pay bills, know what to do in an emergency, etc. have a list of what to do and who to contact if anything happens to you. I wish my dad had done that and not left me alone and completely in the dark when he had a stroke. I knew NOTHING. It was rough.
Story 15: So, OP thinks animals don't have feelings? Not sure if "apple doesn't fall far from the tree", or "pot calls the kettle black" is more appropriate for that.
My dad is an idiot based in misogyny. Basically any bad woman anatomy is him, including thinking that tampons take a womans virginity and turn them into sloots.
NNOOOOOO that last bit about "Christians are the real discriminated people" thing, I HATE IT, my parents would say that all the time and just smile at me snarkily if I tried to say anything.
Had a bad grade in history because my teacher forgot to add up all my points in time. I have him write a note home to my dad so I won't be grounded. The problem? My history teacher was an English major and my dad never went to college. The teacher used to big of words for my dad to understand, so I remain grounded. Months later I get into an argument with my dad about the punishment and he basically admits he didn't understand. I go to my teacher, have him re-write the note but to "Dumb it down" and I bring it home. My punishment is ended, I realize that my dad is stubborn AND stupid.
So the older Climate Change deniers I get. In the 1970s scientists were worried about the next Ice Age coming and making large portions of Canada and Europe uninhabitable with growing glaciers. There were scientists who were making plans to put nuclear power plants on the Canadian tundra with giant heaters to blast away the glaciers. Then they went through Global Warming and that was later dropped. There was also the worry in the 1970s/80s abput the population growing out of control leading to massive wars over food and water. That India and other growing countries would have to actively cull their population. So if you have been around all of this you may be skeptical of the next new climate disaster trend.
The kid in the first story probably explained to his mom why what she did was counterintuitive. The mom doesn't seem malicious, just not educated on which video game consoles play what games. Though, you know OP is probably gonna hang this over his mom's head for at least the rest of the year.
32:53 They don't do that in Australia either, and that's ACTUALLY on the other side of the planet, unlike China! Unless she lives in the continent of South America, then she'd be right about China being on the opposite side of the world, but wrong about everything else.
Elon Musk isn't my daddy, but he is the dumbest smart person I know. If he had stuck to Tesla and SpaceX being an engineering wizard, he'd still be a wizard. But now that he's stuck his nose into politics, he's ticking off half the country. Both of my parents are dumb in their own ways. Mom is being taken by the health stuff business. She's blowing money on olive oil mouth washes and pretty noise makers that are supposed to make you think better. Dad is being taken by the cult of Trump. He uncertain about the results of the 2020 election when there is no evidence of wrong doing there. Don't worry about me, the 2024 election also has no signs of wrong doing as much as I wish there was. But I can't wish that evidence into existence any more than Trump can for the 2020 election.
To be fair, when it comes to peer reviews, very often they don't actually read the paper but look at the header or look for specific buzz words. Upper Echalon has a great video detailing how bad peer review is. Video game speed running is held to a far higher standard.
That first story’s *BRUTAL!*

Really UA-cam, vaccinated is a banned word?
Came to comment about that, too... so weird
I was shocked too
Some people don't like that word.
@@vongola11thboss67I don’t like the word “father”, does that mean it’s now banned on UA-cam? 🤨
@@misspat7555 I don't like moist, let's ban it to. Moist and Father are now censored words.

@edwardsaylor1723 it's not hard to use Google 😂
It's sad that the word "vaccinated" was censored

☹️
I’m no longer surprised by stories about registered nurses anymore. Too many of them find themselves in MLMs

They want to be considered the ones healing the patients instead of just looking after their care, but don't have the finances or intelligence to become an actual doctor, so they readily accept any hokey snake-oil system to foolishly believe they're just as good or better.

The second I realized that prayer doesn't work I realized my parents were idiots who fully bought into a scam.
Story 8 sounds like an episode of The Middle. Almost word for word!!

The first story is super cringey, I dont want to hate that mom but she's dumb.
Why the fuck is the word Vaccinated censored!?!?
There really needs to be an exam to have children.

First story , it is so unfair towards the mother. Op is reall asshole

How is Vaccinated Censored now... i hate this world
Educated
I would normally "like" this video, but I will not like any video that sensors the word "vaccinated". So no "like" from me this time.
