Here's the funny thing about ramen: "authentic" ramen is barely even a thing. Because ramen is supposed to be customizable. You're supposed to be able to choose different toppings and broths. It's like saying that someone isn't making authentic chicken noodle soup because they don't put carrots in it. Chicken noodle soup usually has carrots, but it doesn't have to. It just has to have chicken and noodles. Ramen just has to have ramen noodles.
I work at a daycare. Something I teach all the kids is that just because Something was an accident, doesn't mean you're not still responsible for it. For example, a kid was trying to carry a heavy box of toys to put it away but accidentally dropped it and toys spilled everywhere. She cried and was yelling about how it was an accident. I comforted her for a few minutes and calmly explained to her in a way that she could understand that just because it was an accident, it was still her mess that she needed to clean up. I gave her a few more minutes to calm down before she cleaned up the toys she spilled. Instead of making the same mistake again of trying to lift the box, she asked me for help which I gladly obliged. Genuinely, my 3 year olds are better at taking responsibility than some of these adults.
This kinda reminds me of how I am with my young cousin (he's a bit older than 3, but still very much a kid). He's started saying "it's not the end of the world" because I say that a lot when there's some kind of accident or he accidentally makes a mess or breaks something. Mind you, he still helps clean up whatever mess he made and is more than happy to help whenever (he's a sweet kid and very much a helper). Warmed my heart hearing him quote me like that.
@@khaleesireyna731 kids are adorable when they start mimicking your mannerisms or phrases. Something I do with the kids when I'm holding their hand, I'll rub the back of their hand with my thumb. A couple of my three year olds have started doing the same and it melts my heart every time.
I honestly cannot understand women like the adoptive mom in story 2. I would NEVER wish for a stepchild to have nothing to do with their family of origin. How insecure do you have to be? Not to mention that her own family never accepted the child??? They were a child! It just dawned on me, I wonder if the first wife was a different race from the dad and stepmom, but OP didn't want to include any information about race because OP didn't want to directly accuse anyone in their family of racism? But racism is the most likely reason for a bunch of assholes to not "accept" a child into their family.
While it is the most likely cause, sadly I have seen it happen when there is no racism involved, so we cant rule out that theyre just completely terrible people, even to their own race.
Omg, yes! Like, this child's mother DIED. It's not like she was a deadbeat or abandoned OP, she's no longer living. So, birth mom can't raise OP and be there for them (that's where stepmom would come in as mom), but that doesn't make it ok to erase the dead mom and her family. Love is not a finite resource and a child can have multiple mom's/mother figures. What I find darkly funny is the parents' refusal to answer OPs question because they know damn well they're right and its been spelled out for them exactly how wrong it is, but they want to just throw a tantrum and focus on their own hurt fee fees rather than actually learn and grow from this and try to repair the relationship they're damaging with OP. They should all get some therapy and the therapist better be one who tells the parents that THEY ARE WRONG for doing what they've done. No minimizing, no trying to tell OP they should consider their feelings. None. Just, "yeah, that wasn't emotionally healthy and it's not fair to OP. So here's how we move forward from that" kind of therapist.
Lmao the fact the son from the first story thinks OP is the one with the weird sense of normal and reddit would tear into them when he and DIL are textbook examples of entitled parents they refused to take "no" for answer to babysitting and forced OP to, then DIL gets upset when OP took the kids to disney. Son either doesn't read r/entitledparents or doesn't have self awareness since he'd fit in there.
My sister was quite the greedy narcissist. Our father died from mesothelioma and was, therefore, part of a huge class action suit against the Navy and companies affiliated with the Navy. Needless to say, my mother, sister and I were entitled to a relatively decent amount of money from those lawsuits. My sister had the nerve to tell our mother that neither she nor I were entitled to any of the money and it should all go to her because she was the firstborn child and our mother isn't a blood relative. Classy, right?
Does your sister think the old laws of "firstborn inherits everything" applies here or something? Because if so, she should also be reminded that those laws also only applied to firstborn SONS. Firstborn daughters didn't mean crap and she should probably have gotten smacked by someone for her nastiness, but anyway. 😂
@@khaleesireyna731 actually it wasn't as simple, some aristocracy titles and land could be inherited by daughters (heirs of the body vs heirs male of the body)
@@eurodara true, but generally speaking, "firstborn heir" stuff typically meant "firstborn son" as it was assumed daughters would marry into a different family and partake in that family's wealth.
Y’all remember Lauren the mortician telling a literal certified baby passenger safety guy that he knows nothing about his job and she knows everything? What the hell does being a doctor have to do with knowing about turbulent on a plane and causing a noisy ruckus and disturbing all of the other passengers?
The comparison a commentor made doesn’t make sense at all. The flight attendants were doing nothing to make the so-called doctor be quiet, what does that have to do with a stocker at a store actively doing their job correctly and disturbing nobody?
I completely agree and apparently redditors hadn't heard of the bystander effect on that post. Sometimes having another person tell someone who's acting out to knock it off can actually be VERY productive (example: anytime I see a Karen-esq person being rude to service workers, I confront them directly. I don't yell or scream, but I tell them that their behavior is unacceptable. It's literally led to several Karens turning tail and leaving in a huff). The doctor needed to be told to stfu and sit down.
I've known quite a few people who act like you are in the wrong when you put your foot down about them running late. Some are apologetic, yet still late. My mom, sister, and nieces are always running late. I tell my mom that the start time is 30 minutes to an hour earlier, my nieces 1 to 1 1/2 hours, and my sister 2 to 3 hours. Works most every time. If they get mad that I lied, I point out my accuracy about their tardiness, they get sheepish and hold their tongues.
A therapist who uses the term trauma inflicting words based on somebody getting yelled at should have any and all licenses they possess pulled and never be allowed to practice therapy ever again. They are disgrace to a very important job
Regarding the Mother and lesbian daughter situation: It mostly sounds like the daughter still loves her mother despite their difficult past and lack of communication. I don't think the daughter in this case would have called that upset, or set the stuff afterwards, if she didn't care at all. Sometimes love is like that; you keep your distance but you still love someone and you want them to be okay, and that love and pain aren't easily separated. I don't think either party is the AH in this case, it's just at this point it's difficult to separate the good from the bad, and for the daughter to express that love in a way that isn't entangled with her pain.

Love you stories and want to share a cute one with you: Today we went to throw away the garbage and also on a little walk with our dog, we came back with two dogs 😅. A stray dog followed us home 😊 This is the second time this happened, first time was a kitten that now lives with the neighbors. We going to look for the owners of the dog but really hope we won’t find anyone, we all want to keep him 🥰 My daughter has played with him for hours, he is so incredibly cute 🥰!
My mom did something very similar (not giving me my college acceptance letter) and I joined the military because I’m in the US and can’t afford college 😢
its so sad that this comment could apply to multiple stories in this video. also it's definitely a control thing. all the stories of the parents doing this shit, from hiding an acceptance letter to going out of their way to try to spend their *childs college fund* when they dont need to, it all comes down to them feeling entitled to keep their kid right where they want them. and they will try to destroy any chance their kid has at being independent.
My narc alarm went off SO HARD on that mom. She actively sabotages OPs future and then turns around and cries about how SHE'S the victim of abuse when OP is rightfully furious with her. OPs not the ahole, but they should take that scholarship and make sure they go 100% NC with mommy dearest asap. The fact that she whips out the DARVO tactics is a bad sign for her ever changing.
I like the idea of a third option like, “everyone sucks here” or more diplomatically “this was poorly handled.” Just because someone behaves badly doesn’t mean the injured party can react just however. Two wrongs don’t make a right….even when one person is much more wrong than the other(s).
The story with the OP and their husband having a surprise baby when she was 40 and the SIL being upset about being "left out"... apparently we all missed the global broadcast declaring that SIL is the center of the universe and that all things MUST revolve around her, because damn the amount of entitlement and "me me me" coming from her is some next level stuff.
Where I live 600 dollars/month would give a decent size two room (bedroom, living room, kitchen), shared laundry room, quiet neighborhood and close to bus stops where there are at least two buses to town per hour.
I live in Germany. My sister and I pay 650 a month for an apartment with two bedrooms (one for the parents and one half the size for a kid) plus a decently large living room. There's a laundry in the basement but we have our own machine so we don't use it. It's a nice area, about ten minute walk from the train station and a separate tram station (and from there less than fifteen minutes to the city centre) as well as a forest. We do own all the furniture which is not the default in the US from what I understand, but this is a normal price here
@@BlueGangsta1958 I am envious of that rent price. Depends on who you ask, when it comes to furniture. A lot of people will do the rent-to-own type of thing for furniture where they put a down payment and pay a monthly installment, but that tends to actually cost more than the furniture is worth usually. I own all my furniture, so you can find some decent stuff at reasonable prices if you know how/where to look here in the US. But damn, a 2 BR for $650 a month is amazing!!!
Since a lot of people seem like they didn’t grow up with parents who taught them this important lesson: we do NOT ask questions about other people’s scars unless THEY bring it up. Period, end of story, no exceptions. If you feel entitled to that information, that’s on you. No one else.
So I’m mildly dislexic, and I read ‘other peoples ‘cars’ unless they bring it up.’ Queue some intense confusion and questioning my entire way of thinking lmao. Once I figured it out though, I was like, ‘oh, yeah, this is correct.’
Ya my parents didn't teach me manners, no one mentioned not asking scars. I was told to not ask how much someone made or how much money they have and init stare at deformations but never did someone say it was rude to ask about scars. I have a scar on my face with an unusual story about how I got it, people always assumed it was a wrinkle, I'd prefer people ask than assume, especially since I got it at a very young age.

18:51 ...how do grown adults don't want to do their own laundry? Even my uncle who is a full time doctor who doesn't come home till 8pm does housework when he can while his wife is on deployment. When she's back, she does the cooking. The 3 kids share the rest of the tasks. They have a professional cleaner come in once a month for some deep cleaning or per 2 months for super cleaning. 😅
My guess? Laziness and mommy (or in that one story's case, the maid) cleaning up after them. I have the same reaction when dudes tell me they don't know how to cook. Don't get me wrong, I love to cook/bake and sharing my cooking with others (just as I'm more than happy to help others clean when I'm a guest at their home), but the moment I hear "I don't know how to do that." I turn on teacher mode and I'm just like "Welp, now you'll learn" 😂
Right, my older nephew was 10 and was sent to the school behind my house so he'd stay with me during the week because no one could drop him off on time, first day I took him shopping for extra clothes so he didn't have to worry about forgetting clothes and second day I showed him how to do his laundry so he would never be out of clean clothes. I was in college and my last class ended at 10pm so I didn't want to be responsible and I thought, my grandma showed me at 10 he can learn too. His wife knows he can do laundry and makes him help 😂😂
If his dad had been working so hard to save for him bc he didn’t know about the money from the moms side of the family then he should that much more for the other two kids. We all know he doesn’t have Jack put away for anyone.
I had a brother that was born two years before me, passed away at 2 days old of a possibility lung-related SIDS, just stopped breathing that night, they never really figured out what happened. My mom had crazy anxiety after that and almost 30 years, I know there's still something left of that and it especially effected me, growing up and I was obsessed with my big bro.. To this day, we still visit him around holidays, especially Christmas and maintain his grave and there's not a single bone in my body that wouldn't consider him my brother and I always, without fail, tell people I have 7 siblings. He is included in that. He is also my only older brother and the only sibling I share both a mom and dad.. He's very special to me.. Most of my other siblings doesn't have that kinda connection and my mom even doesn't include him much anymore and that's valid.. We love him and acknowledge him, but that's it.. Anything else seems like unresolved greaf and trauma that needs to be addressed.
How is Hawthorn not a classic name? It literally started to be used by the Anglo-Saxon tribes in Britain. This seems like a "Tiffany Problem," though the REAL problem is it's none of her beeswax!

Dad giving his daughter a lesson in treating others the way you want to be treated-EPIC parenting moment. Especially since he'd already tried many times to explain it several different ways. Sometimes children need a little tough love when the parenting text books aren't cutting it. I hope that she gets over herself and goes back to the awesome and empathetic loving person that she was ❤
Omg the brother is a horrible person and any decent woman wouldn’t let an acquaintance let alone a friend get within ten feet of him cheating on a wife w cancer.
Yeah, like for me, cheating in general is a no-go, but I'm pretty sure cheating on your dying spouse is just a new level of "you suck as a person". Like a person could cheat on their partner and grow to realize that that was really sh*tty of them, but a person who cheats on a dying partner... yeah, I wouldn't even be talking to that person much, let alone letting them hit up my friends.
I know I’m late to the party and I’ve heard this episode before, but I forgot to comment back then. The story with the OP that went on a trip to tour a potential employer for eight days and came back to a ruined terrarium because her husband poured water into it was not NTA. He was not helping. He ruined her terrarium on purpose. If he had never seen her water it,then he knew damn well pouring two cups of water in it would kill it. He clearly doesn’t want to move to another city and have her get this great new job. That was weaponised incompetence, 100%. Instead of talking to her like an adult, he’s behaving like a small child. I wonder if he’s done things like this in the past? She should definitely think over his past actions and see if there’s a pattern. Counselling or divorce might be in order.
3:03:59 Some families just need to accept that the best way to appease everyone is to get food from two places. Usually it's far easier to fully agree on two than it is to agree on one, and it's not that big of a deal if they're close together or one is en route to the other. Getting food out as a family with wildly different preferences is so much easier if you're open to going to more than one place.
Idk if this would be controversial, but I kinda disagree with the YTA scores on the one about the daughter wanting to alter the wedding dress into a suit. It's not OP being "homophobic" or "disagreeing" with her daughter being more masculine, and I'm saying that as someone who leans more into a preference for masculine attire. She just doesn't want to alter it that significantly. Though I think the one YTA comment that suggested getting someone to make it where the bottom portion can be reattached whenever needed is a good compromise.
Story 1: OP is the OPPOSITE of entitled! She didn’t expect her son & DIL to pay for a trip to Epcot, she brought them without even asking for reimbursement!
The Disney one is unhinged, like yeah it's shitty that OP was pressured into babysitting, but you have to inform parents if you're traveling with the kids you're watching.
Yeah i can see that as the problem, but they seemed more upset of just the location than the actual travel- which is really only close to the desired "first time" spot they wanted to do together.
If the EPCOT story was just for a day trip then NTA, but if it was far away/for an extended period I feel like that should be communicated to the parents just so then know where their kids are.
Hi! Someone with a unique/ oddly spelled name here! As an adult I don't and have never hated my name. They also don't know how to spell it because they never see it on paper! So it doesn't matter. Shane has 3 different spellings. Your kid will hate their name if you hate their name. Help them be confident in it and they'll be fine YTAH
First story did OP even tell the parents he was going to take the children on a trip to Disney? Generally if you’re going anywhere big wow babysitting you ask or at least inform the parents of it.
Ok genuinely people do not understand how rent prices work because every time I hear someone read the story about the mom charging her adult child $600/month rent they're always like "that's not feasible to live anywhere else" or "for $600/month you might be able to live in a shoebox with 12 roommates" and that's literally just not true. It depends on where you live. Different areas have different average rent prices. I live in a college town, but it's also in the middle of nowhere Ohio so my rent is about $550 a month before utilities (utilities usually bring it between $600 and $625 depending on the month) to live in a townhouse with two roommates where we each have our own bedroom and bathroom. And that is considered expensive for my area. Most friends I have around here pay between $400-$500 for everything from one bedroom apartments to three bedroom houses (the three bedroom houses are because they live with roommates and split the rent). So like everyone saying OP is naive for thinking they could get their own place for $600 really annoys me because it kinda shows that people assume that what they know in their life is how everything is everywhere.
"Depends where you live" ...proceeds to provide personal anecdote about rent prices based where you live after complaining about everyone else reading and commenting from their own perspectives based on where they live. 😂 I live in an area where $2500 is market rent for anything half decent. Do you think I might think a little differently than you, based on where we live?
@@rochie4865 no I get that, dude! I know! But what I'm saying is, people are acting like $600/month for rent is delusional without knowing where this person lives. To the point of throwing insults at OP calling them naive for even thinking that. I'm saying that people who automatically assume it's naive to think you can rent a place for $600/month are clearly not taking location into consideration. I'm just using myself as an example that it is possible.
@@rochie4865i live in pennsylvania. 600/month is absolutely average for a studio apartment, or even a 1bdr if you're lucky, at least my county. the counties near to us, you could get even 2-3bdrs on 600/month. the point is that people living in different areas... may pay different monthly rates! and those rates may in fact be 600/month! it's weird as shit to act like your area having an outrageous cost of living is the norm everywhere, and to demean others on that basis.
That Daisy babysitter story is infuriating... I hope that OP broke up or divorced that lady... Screaming at a babysitter with no knowledge when they did the right thing? That's psycho behavior... What did she want to happen? For Daisy to just KNOW out of her ass how to deal with it? Guess in her family they were all mind readers or something.. if the baby died, Daisy would get screamed at.. her calling an ambulance out of panic, screamed at... No easy answer.. get out of here
1:40:03 OMG they need to ACCEPT that their son is dead.. wait, did somebody say stillborn? that's fucking INSANE... I thought it was like a 10 year old that died that they were super attached to???
The Weird Juliette spelling story-while it is a cute idea, the O.P. isn't wrong about the spelling of the name. Just give your kids normal spellings. It will make thoer life less difficult. My son has an uncommon name with proper spelling and people still get it wrong. There really is no need to make it more difficult than it needs to be.
I have a fairly uncommon 1st name, but the most common spelling variety. Meanwhile, my sibling has a very common 1st name with a spelling that we have yet to run into anyone else with that spelling. I think it's kinda a to each their own kind of thing (mind you, my sibling never could find souvenirs with their name on them, while I usually could), but I think there's a line at a certain point. Like once you're getting ridiculous with the spelling and throwing in random silent letters, that's too far. My favorite example of this: Kviiilin (Kaitlin... spelled using the Roman numeral 8 in the name 😑)
If someone is r*ped by someone with a tattoo, should everyone with a tattoo cover it in their presence? No, of course not. The person with the issue needs to seek out professional help in order to deal with their problems! How dare she trigger YOU about your own scare and past issues about the scar, how insensitive 😂 Forget about her, sometimes misery just loves company and to wallow in it.
Just looked up the buccal fat surgery, having never heard of it, is it just me or do 80% of the people who get it (almost every one of them under the age of 35) look like they've aged 5-15 years? Only the majority of the older women and a handful of the younger ones actually look improved.
My opinion on traditions & people insisting on following them is- following traditions is a lazy way to do things without bothering to try something new.
I think that name is bonkers especially considering the Italian spelling of "Juliet" is "Giulietta", if they wanted a unique spelling of Juliet they could have used a real one and named her Giulietta or just Giuliett, it's still unique but it's not ridiculous.
Disney one: everybody sucks here. Just because you're watching someone's kids doesn't mean you get to do whatever you want with them. You follow the parents' rules and you respect that. They also suck for pressuring the grandfather into babysitting for that long. But also, idk, my grammy would have never said no to spending time with me. I used to even fly unaccompanied just because they couldnt afford plane tickets for all of us to see her (it was before 9/11, so I could be walked to & picked up from the gate)
No?? There were no _rules,_ the parents never stated verbatim not to take them anywhere. Also, she had the kids while their parents were in another country, what was she supposed to do? Hire a babysitter?
I don't think taking kids to Disney is on the list of offensive things to do while babysitting 😂 my dad's parents literally did this with me when I was 4 and my parents were grateful and happy for me to be able to have that experience because they're normal.
Most parents don't care about Disney parks. Nobody is gonna get upset if a babysitter takes their kids to an amusement park for free, Disney ain't that special
@lightningbolt9155 their first time at Disney is a pretty big deal for most families. My sister is taking my nephew soon and she is is absolutely ecstatic. That's pretty normal. Disney is pretty expensive for most people, especially when you factor in travel, so it's not something that most families just casually decide to do with no planning
Also, not all people are the same my mom would never take my kid overnight because she feels too old for that. It gets to a point that they might be overextending themselves and thus putting the kid in danger.

I've known quite a few people who act like you are in the wrong when you put your foot down about them running late. Some are apologetic, yet still late. My mom, sister, and nieces are always running late. I tell my mom that the start time is 30 minutes to an hour earlier, my nieces 1 to 1 1/2 hours, and my sister 2 to 3 hours. Works most every time. If they get mad that I lied, I point out my accuracy about their tardiness, they get sheepish and hold their tongues.
A therapist who uses the term trauma inflicting words based on somebody getting yelled at should have any and all licenses they possess pulled and never be allowed to practice therapy ever again. They are disgrace to a very important job
Regarding the Mother and lesbian daughter situation: It mostly sounds like the daughter still loves her mother despite their difficult past and lack of communication. I don't think the daughter in this case would have called that upset, or set the stuff afterwards, if she didn't care at all. Sometimes love is like that; you keep your distance but you still love someone and you want them to be okay, and that love and pain aren't easily separated. I don't think either party is the AH in this case, it's just at this point it's difficult to separate the good from the bad, and for the daughter to express that love in a way that isn't entangled with her pain.
THIS I couldn't express how I felt about this story but this sums it up perfectly! Thank you!
Me: Knock knock
Grandad:who's there

Never trust people who want to tell you what to do with your money.
I live by the 3 F's: if you aren't Feeding me, Financing me, or F*cking me, you don't get any say in what I do with my life (and for that last one, I cover 2 out of 3 of those myself, so I still get veto power).
Love you stories and want to share a cute one with you:
Today we went to throw away the garbage and also on a little walk with our dog, we came back with two dogs 😅. A stray dog followed us home 😊
This is the second time this happened, first time was a kitten that now lives with the neighbors.
We going to look for the owners of the dog but really hope we won’t find anyone, we all want to keep him 🥰
My daughter has played with him for hours, he is so incredibly cute 🥰!
Can't believe that mom tried to sabotage her child's college and future
My mom did something very similar (not giving me my college acceptance letter) and I joined the military because I’m in the US and can’t afford college 😢
@@raek.r9889 it really has to be a control thing, right? Because I don't understand that level of malice
its so sad that this comment could apply to multiple stories in this video. also it's definitely a control thing. all the stories of the parents doing this shit, from hiding an acceptance letter to going out of their way to try to spend their *childs college fund* when they dont need to, it all comes down to them feeling entitled to keep their kid right where they want them. and they will try to destroy any chance their kid has at being independent.
@@kichikitsu Absolutely right. Then they no doubt make comments about being incompetent, unable, or not good enough.
My narc alarm went off SO HARD on that mom. She actively sabotages OPs future and then turns around and cries about how SHE'S the victim of abuse when OP is rightfully furious with her. OPs not the ahole, but they should take that scholarship and make sure they go 100% NC with mommy dearest asap. The fact that she whips out the DARVO tactics is a bad sign for her ever changing.
I never expect these compilations.
Have a good one, fellow viewers
I like the idea of a third option like, “everyone sucks here” or more diplomatically “this was poorly handled.” Just because someone behaves badly doesn’t mean the injured party can react just however. Two wrongs don’t make a right….even when one person is much more wrong than the other(s).
i mean. there is. the options of "everyone sucks here" and "no assholes here." those are actual verdicts on the subreddit.
The story with the OP and their husband having a surprise baby when she was 40 and the SIL being upset about being "left out"... apparently we all missed the global broadcast declaring that SIL is the center of the universe and that all things MUST revolve around her, because damn the amount of entitlement and "me me me" coming from her is some next level stuff.
Where I live 600 dollars/month would give a decent size two room (bedroom, living room, kitchen), shared laundry room, quiet neighborhood and close to bus stops where there are at least two buses to town per hour.
Dude, where do you live? I'm lucky to have a decent 1BR for around $750???
Where do you live?? I live in Cleveland and the cheapest rent is $800, which is really hard to find
I live in Germany. My sister and I pay 650 a month for an apartment with two bedrooms (one for the parents and one half the size for a kid) plus a decently large living room. There's a laundry in the basement but we have our own machine so we don't use it.
It's a nice area, about ten minute walk from the train station and a separate tram station (and from there less than fifteen minutes to the city centre) as well as a forest.
We do own all the furniture which is not the default in the US from what I understand, but this is a normal price here
@@BlueGangsta1958 I am envious of that rent price. Depends on who you ask, when it comes to furniture. A lot of people will do the rent-to-own type of thing for furniture where they put a down payment and pay a monthly installment, but that tends to actually cost more than the furniture is worth usually. I own all my furniture, so you can find some decent stuff at reasonable prices if you know how/where to look here in the US. But damn, a 2 BR for $650 a month is amazing!!!
You're funny if you think that's normal for today's economy 🤣
Since a lot of people seem like they didn’t grow up with parents who taught them this important lesson: we do NOT ask questions about other people’s scars unless THEY bring it up. Period, end of story, no exceptions. If you feel entitled to that information, that’s on you. No one else.
So I’m mildly dislexic, and I read ‘other peoples ‘cars’ unless they bring it up.’ Queue some intense confusion and questioning my entire way of thinking lmao. Once I figured it out though, I was like, ‘oh, yeah, this is correct.’
Ya my parents didn't teach me manners, no one mentioned not asking scars. I was told to not ask how much someone made or how much money they have and init stare at deformations but never did someone say it was rude to ask about scars. I have a scar on my face with an unusual story about how I got it, people always assumed it was a wrinkle, I'd prefer people ask than assume, especially since I got it at a very young age.

Pun of the day: I’m flipping out 🤸🏼♂️
That’s the best emoji I can find for the flipping action 😅
I don't think that counts as a pun
@@genderflu1dwh0r17 the original has the the red flip cups( ones usually used in the flip cup game and I don’t what they’re called) one right side up and the other upside down
18:51 ...how do grown adults don't want to do their own laundry? Even my uncle who is a full time doctor who doesn't come home till 8pm does housework when he can while his wife is on deployment. When she's back, she does the cooking. The 3 kids share the rest of the tasks. They have a professional cleaner come in once a month for some deep cleaning or per 2 months for super cleaning. 😅
My guess? Laziness and mommy (or in that one story's case, the maid) cleaning up after them. I have the same reaction when dudes tell me they don't know how to cook. Don't get me wrong, I love to cook/bake and sharing my cooking with others (just as I'm more than happy to help others clean when I'm a guest at their home), but the moment I hear "I don't know how to do that." I turn on teacher mode and I'm just like "Welp, now you'll learn" 😂
Right, my older nephew was 10 and was sent to the school behind my house so he'd stay with me during the week because no one could drop him off on time, first day I took him shopping for extra clothes so he didn't have to worry about forgetting clothes and second day I showed him how to do his laundry so he would never be out of clean clothes. I was in college and my last class ended at 10pm so I didn't want to be responsible and I thought, my grandma showed me at 10 he can learn too. His wife knows he can do laundry and makes him help 😂😂
If his dad had been working so hard to save for him bc he didn’t know about the money from the moms side of the family then he should that much more for the other two kids. We all know he doesn’t have Jack put away for anyone.
Just what i need to start off my weekend!! ❤
I so love these long compilations. I knit and shout at my macbook ... yes, I get too involved and carried away a bit.
Story 1: “well, you get what you settle for.”
- Thelma and Louise
I had a brother that was born two years before me, passed away at 2 days old of a possibility lung-related SIDS, just stopped breathing that night, they never really figured out what happened. My mom had crazy anxiety after that and almost 30 years, I know there's still something left of that and it especially effected me, growing up and I was obsessed with my big bro.. To this day, we still visit him around holidays, especially Christmas and maintain his grave and there's not a single bone in my body that wouldn't consider him my brother and I always, without fail, tell people I have 7 siblings. He is included in that. He is also my only older brother and the only sibling I share both a mom and dad.. He's very special to me.. Most of my other siblings doesn't have that kinda connection and my mom even doesn't include him much anymore and that's valid.. We love him and acknowledge him, but that's it.. Anything else seems like unresolved greaf and trauma that needs to be addressed.
How is Hawthorn not a classic name? It literally started to be used by the Anglo-Saxon tribes in Britain. This seems like a "Tiffany Problem," though the REAL problem is it's none of her beeswax!
Parents get to choose the names of their children, then get mad when their children want to choose their own children's names...has the world gone completely mad?
41:30 ... I'm pretty drunk rn, and I would still have the presence of mind to take up for my kiddos. This is BS. Wtf. 💙💙
So.... What I'm hearing is that Grace is single, and a fucking firecracker...
Am I crazy....? Or did I hear Vincey narrate this EXACT episode several days ago?!?! I know I've heard this before but I don't think I listened to this just yesterday? Vincey did you re-upload this or something? Am I crazy? Someone help me before I check myself into a hospital lol
This is a compilation episode
Dad giving his daughter a lesson in treating others the way you want to be treated-EPIC parenting moment. Especially since he'd already tried many times to explain it several different ways. Sometimes children need a little tough love when the parenting text books aren't cutting it. I hope that she gets over herself and goes back to the awesome and empathetic loving person that she was ❤
Omg the brother is a horrible person and any decent woman wouldn’t let an acquaintance let alone a friend get within ten feet of him cheating on a wife w cancer.
Yeah, like for me, cheating in general is a no-go, but I'm pretty sure cheating on your dying spouse is just a new level of "you suck as a person". Like a person could cheat on their partner and grow to realize that that was really sh*tty of them, but a person who cheats on a dying partner... yeah, I wouldn't even be talking to that person much, let alone letting them hit up my friends.

I know I’m late to the party and I’ve heard this episode before, but I forgot to comment back then. The story with the OP that went on a trip to tour a potential employer for eight days and came back to a ruined terrarium because her husband poured water into it was not NTA. He was not helping. He ruined her terrarium on purpose. If he had never seen her water it,then he knew damn well pouring two cups of water in it would kill it. He clearly doesn’t want to move to another city and have her get this great new job. That was weaponised incompetence, 100%. Instead of talking to her like an adult, he’s behaving like a small child. I wonder if he’s done things like this in the past? She should definitely think over his past actions and see if there’s a pattern. Counselling or divorce might be in order.
3:03:59 Some families just need to accept that the best way to appease everyone is to get food from two places. Usually it's far easier to fully agree on two than it is to agree on one, and it's not that big of a deal if they're close together or one is en route to the other. Getting food out as a family with wildly different preferences is so much easier if you're open to going to more than one place.
Idk if this would be controversial, but I kinda disagree with the YTA scores on the one about the daughter wanting to alter the wedding dress into a suit. It's not OP being "homophobic" or "disagreeing" with her daughter being more masculine, and I'm saying that as someone who leans more into a preference for masculine attire. She just doesn't want to alter it that significantly. Though I think the one YTA comment that suggested getting someone to make it where the bottom portion can be reattached whenever needed is a good compromise.
"two wrongs do make a right, lisa"
Just call the kid Giulietta! It's Italian!
Story 1: OP is the OPPOSITE of entitled! She didn’t expect her son & DIL to pay for a trip to Epcot, she brought them without even asking for reimbursement!
The Disney one is unhinged, like yeah it's shitty that OP was pressured into babysitting, but you have to inform parents if you're traveling with the kids you're watching.
Yeah i can see that as the problem, but they seemed more upset of just the location than the actual travel- which is really only close to the desired "first time" spot they wanted to do together.
If the EPCOT story was just for a day trip then NTA, but if it was far away/for an extended period I feel like that should be communicated to the parents just so then know where their kids are.
Hi! Someone with a unique/ oddly spelled name here! As an adult I don't and have never hated my name. They also don't know how to spell it because they never see it on paper! So it doesn't matter. Shane has 3 different spellings. Your kid will hate their name if you hate their name. Help them be confident in it and they'll be fine YTAH
First story did OP even tell the parents he was going to take the children on a trip to Disney? Generally if you’re going anywhere big wow babysitting you ask or at least inform the parents of it.
Thing is it wasnt Disney, it was close to it, and they got upset over them having gone to a party even close to the location.
Ok genuinely people do not understand how rent prices work because every time I hear someone read the story about the mom charging her adult child $600/month rent they're always like "that's not feasible to live anywhere else" or "for $600/month you might be able to live in a shoebox with 12 roommates" and that's literally just not true. It depends on where you live. Different areas have different average rent prices. I live in a college town, but it's also in the middle of nowhere Ohio so my rent is about $550 a month before utilities (utilities usually bring it between $600 and $625 depending on the month) to live in a townhouse with two roommates where we each have our own bedroom and bathroom. And that is considered expensive for my area. Most friends I have around here pay between $400-$500 for everything from one bedroom apartments to three bedroom houses (the three bedroom houses are because they live with roommates and split the rent).
So like everyone saying OP is naive for thinking they could get their own place for $600 really annoys me because it kinda shows that people assume that what they know in their life is how everything is everywhere.
"Depends where you live" ...proceeds to provide personal anecdote about rent prices based where you live after complaining about everyone else reading and commenting from their own perspectives based on where they live. 😂
I live in an area where $2500 is market rent for anything half decent. Do you think I might think a little differently than you, based on where we live?
@@rochie4865 no I get that, dude! I know! But what I'm saying is, people are acting like $600/month for rent is delusional without knowing where this person lives. To the point of throwing insults at OP calling them naive for even thinking that.
I'm saying that people who automatically assume it's naive to think you can rent a place for $600/month are clearly not taking location into consideration. I'm just using myself as an example that it is possible.
@@rochie4865i live in pennsylvania. 600/month is absolutely average for a studio apartment, or even a 1bdr if you're lucky, at least my county. the counties near to us, you could get even 2-3bdrs on 600/month.
the point is that people living in different areas... may pay different monthly rates! and those rates may in fact be 600/month! it's weird as shit to act like your area having an outrageous cost of living is the norm everywhere, and to demean others on that basis.
Day 975 of reminding everyone to do things for yourself because you're worth it
That Daisy babysitter story is infuriating... I hope that OP broke up or divorced that lady... Screaming at a babysitter with no knowledge when they did the right thing? That's psycho behavior... What did she want to happen? For Daisy to just KNOW out of her ass how to deal with it? Guess in her family they were all mind readers or something.. if the baby died, Daisy would get screamed at.. her calling an ambulance out of panic, screamed at... No easy answer.. get out of here
All these weird spellings of names are exhausting 🙄
Funniest/craziest one I've ever seen is Kviiilin (Katelyn... spelled with the Roman numeral 8).
1:40:03 OMG they need to ACCEPT that their son is dead.. wait, did somebody say stillborn? that's fucking INSANE... I thought it was like a 10 year old that died that they were super attached to???
Chitty chitty roomba 😂
Im gonna name my daughter Jewelyette
The Weird Juliette spelling story-while it is a cute idea, the O.P. isn't wrong about the spelling of the name. Just give your kids normal spellings. It will make thoer life less difficult. My son has an uncommon name with proper spelling and people still get it wrong. There really is no need to make it more difficult than it needs to be.
I have a fairly uncommon 1st name, but the most common spelling variety. Meanwhile, my sibling has a very common 1st name with a spelling that we have yet to run into anyone else with that spelling. I think it's kinda a to each their own kind of thing (mind you, my sibling never could find souvenirs with their name on them, while I usually could), but I think there's a line at a certain point. Like once you're getting ridiculous with the spelling and throwing in random silent letters, that's too far.
My favorite example of this: Kviiilin (Kaitlin... spelled using the Roman numeral 8 in the name 😑)
Sounds like Jane may have a phobia.
Edit: move out.
If someone is r*ped by someone with a tattoo, should everyone with a tattoo cover it in their presence? No, of course not. The person with the issue needs to seek out professional help in order to deal with their problems! How dare she trigger YOU about your own scare and past issues about the scar, how insensitive 😂 Forget about her, sometimes misery just loves company and to wallow in it.
Mahriya is also a tradgideih it's Mariah >> i would know i honestly think people need to be told no when they do that shit >>
Just looked up the buccal fat surgery, having never heard of it, is it just me or do 80% of the people who get it (almost every one of them under the age of 35) look like they've aged 5-15 years? Only the majority of the older women and a handful of the younger ones actually look improved.
My opinion on traditions & people insisting on following them is- following traditions is a lazy way to do things without bothering to try something new.
Oh boy I’m early today!!!
R/slash
That daughter is gonna resent her name.
Taking someone's kids to Disney without their permission is NOT OKAY. Period. She should have asked.
I think that name is bonkers especially considering the Italian spelling of "Juliet" is "Giulietta", if they wanted a unique spelling of Juliet they could have used a real one and named her Giulietta or just Giuliett, it's still unique but it's not ridiculous.
3:41:13
Ghiuliyette is sertainly a yoonik whay of spelln et
Disney one: everybody sucks here. Just because you're watching someone's kids doesn't mean you get to do whatever you want with them. You follow the parents' rules and you respect that. They also suck for pressuring the grandfather into babysitting for that long. But also, idk, my grammy would have never said no to spending time with me. I used to even fly unaccompanied just because they couldnt afford plane tickets for all of us to see her (it was before 9/11, so I could be walked to & picked up from the gate)
No?? There were no _rules,_ the parents never stated verbatim not to take them anywhere. Also, she had the kids while their parents were in another country, what was she supposed to do? Hire a babysitter?
I don't think taking kids to Disney is on the list of offensive things to do while babysitting 😂 my dad's parents literally did this with me when I was 4 and my parents were grateful and happy for me to be able to have that experience because they're normal.
Most parents don't care about Disney parks. Nobody is gonna get upset if a babysitter takes their kids to an amusement park for free, Disney ain't that special
@lightningbolt9155 their first time at Disney is a pretty big deal for most families. My sister is taking my nephew soon and she is is absolutely ecstatic. That's pretty normal. Disney is pretty expensive for most people, especially when you factor in travel, so it's not something that most families just casually decide to do with no planning
Also, not all people are the same my mom would never take my kid overnight because she feels too old for that. It gets to a point that they might be overextending themselves and thus putting the kid in danger.
Didn’t you already do this story. 😒
Well yeah, its a compilation, not anything too new
