For the tire one, I would have given it to the ones who knew what it was for. Knowing the exact name for it doesn’t actually help you change the tire.
On the bill, move the decimal point to the left, which would give you 10 percent ($7.28). Then double it. That's a 20% tip. That's how my dad taught me.
I was just about to type the exact same thing.
THIS!!!! As a server and guest it’s hands down the easiest way.
This is how my mum taught me to do it too
Yup. Easy math🎉
That’s how I do it, too!
angel : "i'm mentally 23."
her every round : "bruh whaaat?"
...yea sure "23".
shut up
Mentally not physically
@@anylawhitfield7278 lol not EVEN mentally.
bet you’re fun at parties
@@mojopins more fun than you at least.
Angel : mentally I'm 23
Also angel : this is a mouse katool
Angel got a freebie on the sheets one for "cleanliness," but Ryker and Sophia answered the same and didn't. Y'all are inconsistent as heck sometimes. 😅
16:23
Dani: And I'd like to thank… all the problems in my life, for forcing me to come up with solutions.
Me: [nodding] Yup. That's adult AF.
Proud of Danny. Very practical young man
High Schools really should have a mandatory "Basic Life Skills" for all students! Including budgeting, grocery shopping Including using a circular, basic cooking, basic laundry, basic cleaning, how to write a check, send a letter, etc!
high schools do have that stuff, I mean in Canada they do.
@@ben-neon19USA retired teacher here, we don't here. I did work with High School Special Needs students and we did a little bit but nothing standard or required.
When I was in _middle_ school, there were cooking classes. Then again, that was so long ago (I'm 40).
@@GeminiWolfstarGaming The girls had cooking then sewing, while the boys had carpentry then metalworking. Neither sex could take the others.
@@lbednaz Well, the middle school I went to cooking and sewing was for both genders. I still have my little tote bag I made in sewing class. I didn't take woodshop class until high school.
Re: a mattress’ lifespan, you can argue that’s just marketing & it varies by brand.
Also a true adult knows mattresses are expensive AF & the practical answer is you keep rotating & flip your mattress (with occasional vacuuming) until a spring pops out. And then you put duct tape over the spring until you can afford to buy a new one.
Truth!
And when you buy a new mattress, make sure it is a flippable style, not a pillow top. Unless you're rich.
@@LeesaDeAndrea made that mistake for my first apartment. You can still rotate it but it won’t last as long
Yeah, I feel like 5, 8, and 10 years are all correct, depending (like you said) on the brand as well as the wear. If you are using the mattress in a guest room, I’d almost double the lifespan or 50% longer at least.
Some mattresses come with a foam topper built in so flipping won’t work, but they’re usually the pricier ones anyways.
angel’s attitude oh god
I love this new producer. She's more of a motherly vibe than an aunty or sister vibe like the other female producers. It's a win win for all.
she is hot...
OMG the mattress "A couple hundred bucks every 8 years" lolll, you should have asked them how much a mattress costs loll
They are going to be shocked 😅
And it got me wondering how many mattresses are lying in landfills.
Use it until it becomes uncomfortable, in my book.
As far as the checks go, I was always taught to write the change as a fraction.
Two thousand three hundred forty eight & 12/100 DOLLARS. That's the way I was taught in school and by my parents. It's the way I've always done it and I've never gotten a check back.
Anyone else?
That’s the proper way to do it in the written part.
Same
I do it that way too, I thought that was the only way to write.a check
Dani tying the tie super fast 😂 putting everyone to shame was pretty badass
Don't feel bad kids. Back in the mid 90's I was getting gas and 4 teen guys were all looking at the flat tire trying to figure out what to do. I told them to put the spare on and got the blank stare of deers back at me.
The elderly lady at the end killed me! lmao!
Growing up, my mom made me hand write thank you letters after my birthday parties. I had to personally thank them for their gift, then address the envelope with a stamp and put them in the mailbox. I'll 100% have my child do the same thing every year.
8 years for a matress? Bruh, we got one over 20 years and it sleeps the best in this house.
Beeing a decent human beeing in other places than the US, means paying your workers so they don't have to rely on peoples goodwill to get a salary.
If calculating 10% is tricky for you, calculate 10% and double it. If that stumps you, the easiest way to do 10% is move the decimal point over to the left by one digit. So 10% of $72.83 is $7.28, and 20% is $14.56.
For everyone saying "no one writes letters anymore," Over one and a half billion Christmas cards are mailed every year. More than 14 billion correspondence mail items. Total mail volume is over one hundred billion pieces of mail each year.
Angel: I'm mentally 23. More like 2+3=5...😂
literally she’s so childish
The hardest part of watching this was three things. The first was that they didn't know how to write a check. The second was that they did not know how to address an envelope. The third was they didn't know what a tire iron was. The credit part is a learn as you go in life, but it would good to know. That business with the sheets is someone who has worked cleaning houses.
Dani is so great 💕💕💕
Angel "Mentally 23" is SUCH A BABY when she doesn't do well...girl...did you mean 23 months?
Yeah, I hate to say if she had won, she would have SHOUTED it from the rooftops. But since she didn't, she was very muted. 😐
As an adult I’m pissed that my school didn’t teach me anything useful for adult life like tax, credit, rental laws, decent sex Ed. Etc
Yeah, I tried taking trigonometry in 11th grade and it was too stressful. I switched to bookkeeping and accounting for math. How many people are going to need advanced math realistically for their careers?
Budgeting. Thats a huge one.
@@darlingdeb7010 yep. I didn't need to find cosines and values of x lol. Funnily enough, one of the important things taught in accounting when I went to high school was balancing a check book lol.
The only one going to survive is Dani 😂
The correct tip is live in a country that pays waiting staff properly
The old lady in the video about the fitted sheet is a total vibe!
As a 57yo, I still have several companies, especially small business companies, requiring hand written checks due to lack of technology. This can also often save you money bc it saves many companies the credit card fees they are required to pay
Dani with the most kidlike outfit being the winner, such a flex 😂 love it!
With tipping, it's way easier to remember, move the decimal to the left once for 10% and then calculate from there.
That was my thought. Move the decimal to the left once and double it. Boom 20%.
"I'm like a parashooter, except I can hit the target"! XD
The second way of folding a fitted sheet cracked me up as that's how I feel...and sometimes do 🤣🤣🤣
lord angel is so unbearable in this episode lol why does she have such a short temper
My thoughts. It's not usually this rough lol
hormonal issues
As a 40 year old adult, I totally relate to the "true adult" version of folding a fitted sheet. 😂
And institutionalized tipping, just be a decent human being and pay your workers an actual fair wage ....
What a f'ed up system....
It's sad that people got mad at Trey Parker and Matt Stone for saying tipping wouldn't be allowed at Casa Bonita because they were paying the staff an actual good wage. 🙄
Some of these are not actually part of modern adulting. Believe me, I've written checks and sent letters, those aren't things anyone does anymore. Heck, I like having checks just in case I ever need one, and my bank teller was like, "Do you actually use checks?" And, of course, that lady demonstrated how folding fitted sheets usually goes. Also, who has to calculate tips in their heads these days? Phones, my dudes.
A couple hundred bucks for a mattress? Try multiplying that by 5, easy. Maybe a couple hundred for a cheap twin, but decent (not even top quality) queen or king, you’re looking at between 900-1200.
at least
All the girls should absolutely know about the stains that hydrogen peroxide can remove lol
I'm quite impressed by Dani on this video.
"decent human being means good tipping" - thats the most murica thing to say if I have ever heard one.
If you want to be a decent human being, abolish that shit already and pay a normal wage like the rest of the professions.
I love this episode because I think kids should know how to write a check, mail an envelope...basic life skills. We had to learn because no internet/social media/smartphones. Dani is a BALLER! So proud of him.
@@andrewft31 checks are definitely not obsolete. Not everyone wants to use money transfer apps.
I wish the US would abandon the tipping system and start paying people proper wages, so it can be like what the rest of the world does, tip someone with whatever you're comfortable with to say job well done. If it's mandatory, it's technically not tipping anyway..
Not every place tips. If there is a waiter there is a tip. People are already not going out because of the cost of food so paying 20% upfront will probably cause people to turn away.
For the tipping, at least for me the easiest way is to move the decimal place over left one , double it, and round the hundreths digit. So a 20% tip on 234.34 would be about 46.87ish.
20% tip... Easy way, just move the decimal point to the left one time, then multiply by 2.
I love the host's energy how its calm but a little chaotic and funny, "badda bing badda boom" lol I'm like that, I'm a calm but awkwardly funny person.
It's trivial to calculate 20% without a calculator.. you can calculate 10% right? Double it.
9:13 being a good decent human being means paying your staff a fair wage and not depending on customers to tip. Nobody deserves a tip and shouldn't expect a tip unless the service was exceptional.
America is such a shit hole
True, but the culture you're in is the culture you have to deal with. There's no point having teens grow up thinking they don't have to tip just because the people making the laws are out of touch.
I learnt how to address an envelope in like grade 3 or 4. Is that not taught anymore?
Just move the bloody-forsaken period, for crying out loud!
Danny has been taught how to adult.
I'm sorry, I fold my fitted sheets like everyone who doesn't adult apparently
okay that tipping "hack" actually makes me mad :D like, just do 10% which is 1/10th which is just moving the comma by one and then double it. that way you dont need a BS "hack" but actually do math, and quicker too :D
also "part of being an adult is tipping" is very much exclusive to the us ^^
Love that Dani did better than most actually adults would! Like his expert level rounding up from 20% being $14.566 for the tip!
I was sad that Jaxon wasn’t in this video… then Google told me he’s 20 and now I feel old! 🤯😱😭
I'm 64 and i still suck at folding a fitted sheet!😂😂😂
They showed it in the video. The proper way is to ball it up and throw it in the drawer.
Tipping is stupid and should not be the norm. It should not be required or forced. Owners should be responsible for their employees wages. Tip is and should only be given for service beyond the norm.
I agree, only America has the tipping thing. In China and Australia we normally don`t tip.
I love Beba's voice, she would be a great book narrator for audiobooks.
Dani is more of an adult than I am lol
@6:12 a couple hundred bucks every 8 years? That girl has no idea what mattresses cost.
To be fair, cheap mattresses are the reason the average is only 8 years. If you buy higher end you can easily find mattresses that will last 20+ years, but they cost a LOT more. Of course, this is true with a lot of consumer products; good hardwood furniture will last centuries, but who can afford it?
Impressed with Danny. 🎉
Now we need this same style challenge with some of the adult reactors.
that ending…i had to rewatch it. “just shove it in there!” 😂😂😂 and the grin.
mine’s no better. i semi fold mine into fourths before i shove it in my wardrobe lol
Now the old lady is right on how to fold a fitted sheet 🤣🤣🤣
Dani! i'm impressed!
Beba's voice is kinda too calm for me. I like her voice (maybe for something else), but I miss the over-expressiveness of the other producers.
I just commented this lol
Sigh. I just realized I’ve failed my 18 year old son.
I used to work at a university book store and it was shocking how many students came in with blank checks from their parents to pay for their books and had no idea how to fill them out. You'd think the parents would make sure they know. But also checks are pretty self explanitory. Nobody ever taught me how and I figured it out.
please teach these teens when to tip and when tipping is excessive. being served/receiving a delivery of food = yes, tip. pick up/check out = no, tipping not required. food servers and food delivery drivers typically work for tips or gas money. other professions work on wages and do not require tipping. don't tip, especially, at self checkout. that is billion dollar company greed.
and that it’s not necessary in some cases like when you’re on welfare and/or disability and don’t work
8:05 -- I work in a nation-wide, big-box hardware store,, some of the elderly 🧓 customers that come in can't see very clearly, so I have helped them out by writing out the checks for them,, then they sign them. 🙂🥰
Finding 10% of a number is easy. Then just double that for a 20% tip.
'I'm mentally 23' Girl, I am physically 29 and I don't feel adult. You're not ready. It sucks.
Danny was impressive! Such a good young adult
Dani held it allll down. But I'm not surprised bc he just gives Knowledge AF vibes. Congrats Dani my love!!! 👏 😊
"couple hundred every 8 years" for a mattress has me CRYING
Closer to save a couple hundred EACH year to buy one after 8...maybe 😅
I knew the Tire Iron right away. But only because it's my fave start-of-game melee weapon, in Fallout 4.
I’m very grateful that I got forced into taking a “Life Skills” class in middle school which was basically a “what to expect when you’re an adult” class.
If you can fold a fitted sheet, you’re a wizard/witch. Congrats on going to hogwarts Dani!
This is the kind of stuff they should teach in school and/or parents should be teaching. I know the school system sucks nowadays but...
To be fair, I’m almost 50 and have been adulting for a long time and I don’t know how to tie a tie. I have a vague idea of how to do it but haven’t in my life. And I can drive a manual transmission… The fitted sheet is just unfair. 😂 Watch the fitted sheet episode of Grace and Frankie. You’re a witch!
As an adult, how many of us actually buy a new mattress every 8 yrs? That's for people who can afford to do that sh!t lok
Wait until they find out you have to be a different adult in every new country you go to
I get satisfaction making a fitted sheets look no different folded than a flat sheet, I piss people off with how neatly I can fold them 😂🤣😂🤣
Should have done a cursive writing challenge too!
I'm 50 years old and I have yet to learn how to fold a fitted sheet. It hasn't really decreased my quality of life
First off kudos to all of them for trying. Now they know what being an adult is like.
Second off, I'm 19. I know how to write a check, and what credit is but the rest? NAH bruh 🤣
Third of all, I never knew how to tie a tie(wow shocking) until they showed that TikTok
Fourth, Being an adult is a lot of work BUT there are easy ways around it. That Grandma on round 10 is literally me. Just crumple up the sheet and shove it in the f****** drawer.
And lastly I never clean my sheets........ TO be cont....
How about calculating taxes? 😂
Or making a budget lol
I HATE FOLDING FITTED SHEETS!!!! I usually just cram it in the drawer or storage container and call it good 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Wow, I'm so surprised that most of the reacters knew how to write a check.
Carolina's look of awe at Dani folding the fitted sheet made me smile.
Dani must be the oldest of the bunch. He definitely has an old soul and should have been born in the early 80s-90s.
Credit score is such an american thing. Like making fun of chinese for their social score, meanwhile having yourself be put into this single number called credit score LMAO.
The 20% is so easy lol, you just have to move the period/comma over to make 20% and then multiply by 2
This is an amazing episode. You should do more of these to teach them life skills
If you gave Angel the point for washing sheets, you should have given it to Sofia and Ryker. Also love Sofia asking whose opinion. I get these videos are just for fun, but sometimes React picks the most random "facts." 🤣
There is an awesome youtube channel called "Dad, how do I" where men teach you every day basic life skills (tying a tie, how to do laundry, changing a tire, doing dishes, etc)
“It’s not easy to calculate without a calculator”!!!!
WTAF??? 20% is EASY to calculate without a calculator, you just double the total bill and divide by 10, or move the decimal 1 place to the left. How is that “not easy”?!?!?!
Ahh, the American education system, leaves a lot to be desired 🤦🏼♂️😂😂😂
o-o Or do the reverse. Move the decimal 1 place to the left then multiply by 2.
7:13 Back in the day...parents would write out a check for their young children and send them to the store for cigarettes!
Then the kids would buy a lot of extra things before the check had an amount on it.
There is no manual on Adulting, and no school will teach you. I learned how to write out a check while watching the Price is Right, and I learned how to tie a tie, while watching an episode of Days of Our Lives. And another thing, you can tell Angel is gonna split the check when she go on dates.
I must not be a "proper adult" then because folding fitted sheets is a waste of time.
Congratulations on the win Dani!
