Train ticket inspector: after the second time . Would have said ‘ I’m sorry I don’t speak English. ‘ Also as for the change after holding up the bills to the light I would have done the same thing to the coins Treat them with the same respect they give you
My own father is a piece of shit. I have vivid memories of being yelled at just for existing on a daily basis. He's never once complimented me, told me he loved me, hugged me or wanted to spend any time with me while I was growing up. I was just a burden in his eyes and no matter what I did it was never good enough. Even when I would do well in school with a subject I was struggling with he'd find a way to turn it into a negative. There was no "Hey, you did it! Great job!" it was "You should've been doing this well from the beginning, there's no excuses for that!" You know, because children aren't constantly learning, we're born with all knowledge of the known universe already inside our heads, and I alone wasn't using it because... reasons. At age 6 I would get yelled at for coming home from school through the front door and not immediately taking my shoes off by the front door, as in I had the door opened and he was yelling at me before I was even inside the damn house. Then getting yelled at for taking my shoes off BEFORE I was inside the house because I was "ruining my socks". Then I got yelled at for taking my backpack off so I could remove my shoes without toppling over because then I was "leaving my shit all over the place!" Then getting yelled at because I should've come home through the backdoor, which was always locked, and never the front door even though that was the door EVERYONE used. Next day I tried to come through the backdoor, it was locked, and then getting yelled at because he had to get up and unlock the backdoor for me instead of just using the front door. :/ He'd also leave the house when my brothers and I were sick, leaving my mom to take care of three sick kids all alone, and he'd hang out with his buddies all the time while claiming to be a loving father and supporting husband. He'd spend money on his wants over the family needs - eventually leading to the house being foreclosed on and leaving us homeless, but that's another story. He's had affairs, had pain pill addictions, smoked himself into a massive heart attack and continues to smoke while paying hundreds of dollars on medications because of his heart attack, lays around all day without helping out around the apartment, won't clean anything, only cooks for himself - when my mom's back is too sore for her to cook for him, won't take care of the car and he's a chronic liar who tries to spout wisdom even when every word he speaks reeks of bullshit. Those are just the highlights. He's done so much and I cannot stand to be around him. I'm 33 and I remember these moments while he conveniently doesn't recall anything, but can't understand why I want nothing to do with him. I'll go to his funeral, but only to make sure he's really dead and not faking anything for attention! Sorry for the long comment. It just felt good to vent for a moment and get a bunch of pent-up frustrations out of my system.
I've been told things bad about myself too. I stopped listening once I moved out of my mother's house. Then my husband started saying things, I got the knowledge of they know I can get better and I can do better, they just want to put me down because it makes them feel better about themselves or someone else. I proved it to my ex husband.
I can totally relate to the last story. That’s all I’ve ever heard from my family as well. So and so did this, so and so bought a house. Why can’t you be like so and so. Thanks to my family I’m now fighting with bipolar depression
I am a little disappointed the poster with the train ticket inspector didn't remove the second earbud and ask "can you hear me better now?" I like to think I would have.
However, he was mumbling, but he didn't realize that he was! IT'S TRUE!! I can't talk very well while wearing (protective) ear plugs in a noisy work area. Why? Because a person can't hear himself talk when something is blocking his hearing. Therefore, I would remove my ear plugs to speak to a co-worker! The ticket taker was correct!!
I can relate to the last story a bit. Imagine a dad who hollers at you when you're 10 because you bent a finger backwards accidentally while cleaning out a cattle trailer and being called useless and stupid the rest of your life thereafter...
I got pulled out of a truck by my hair through the window while bailing hay because I didn't know how to drive the very first time I drove. I was 12. You guys are doing great and I'm proud of you! The best revenge is being better men than our fathers.
Ticket Story: If I were OP, after she claimed to not understand me the second time, I'd politely hold up 1 finger (the gesture of please wait a moment, NOT the Middle Finger!) and pull out a notebook and pen and I'd write down in clear, printed, all capitol block letters the Ticket I need and what Station I'm going to and hold the page up to her face so she could read it... Insulting? Probably... Would I care? Oh HELL No! 😄😁😆😅😂🤣
Hello RedWheel hope you are well. Thanks for sharing your stories everyday. Please stay safe.🏴😷😁👍. Have a great day and a wonderful week ahead everyone
Last story kinda made me sick how the dude waited for 6 months, letting his cousin's poor wife continue to get exposed to whatever the hell her husband was dragging in with him. Crabs, herpes, possibly worse. He should have at least told the wife immediately, for her own health and safety.
i disagree, i think the way he did it was the best way if he told her directly the husband could've just been like "oh my cousin is just jealous of us and is trying to ruin it, who are you going to believe?" and etc. etc. the way he did, the cousin had 0 time to prepare for a defense and had to face the music in front of the family what IM mad about is that the dude punched OP and CALLED THE COPS over this matter
Nope! Never get in the middle!! OP did exactly right. Witnesses were necessary! Look at what happened with witnesses! Toxic family all around. OP will never 'win'. Not worth trying....but I get why OP tried.
@@alakazamlover4908 I know he needed to gather some evidence first, of course, but enough to make the case shouldn't have taken a full 6 months. That's a lot of time to just let someone unknowingly stew in a dangerous situation like that.
Last story. Not sure why OP waited for his toxic family to cut ties with him, I would have done it years before. The stress of having to endure them over the holidays (and likely other times as well) and the verbal insults about OP were bad enough but insulting OP's SO... You are asking to get punched in the face.
That story about the guy on the train... You don't have a ticket? What a shame. This goes back to the mid 70's....so obviously paraphrased ( somewhat lol ). I was heading of to Cornwall ( SW UK ) for a couple of weeks backpacking. But since it's a fairly long trip...and that I'm 6ft 3 inches...with correspongly long legs...decided to travel first class, for the extra space...I mean why not ? So I find myself a compartment with only one other occupant...hiding behind a copy oft the 'Times' newspaper. He didn't even look up as I swung my rucksack onto the over head rack, then I just swivveled around and sat down. My next task was to dig out my tobacco and start rolling some ciggarettes, and putting them into a tin I had for them. I'm not sure what got his attention but the next thing I know Is I'm beng challenged with 'You DO realise that this is a FIRST CLASS compartment I presume'?! Now I'm used to these stuck up SOB's...I've worked retail for quite a few years. So I look back at him...then at the sign on the door he's pointing to that proudly states 'First Class'. Then I turn back and look at him clamly...'Well...my congratulations on your powers of observation and your reading ability...I'm truly impressed...it does indeed say that'. All delivered in an 'upper class, cut glass, accent....the kind of accent that helps when you work retail in the west end of London ( or it did...not so sure about nowadays though ). He glared back at me and said 'I suppose you DO have a ticket'? 'Well actually yes...I do...why...don't you'? Then he spots that I'm rolling cigarettes...but not actually smoking...in a non smoking compartment. He.Looses.It! Spitting out 'We'll see about this'! He jumped to his feet and stormed out the door...a few minutes later he's back....with the conductor, who notices I'm rolling cigarettes...but not actually smoking. Then very politely asks to see my ticket. So I take of my hat...extract the ticket...and hand it to him. He looked at it...'clipped' it and handed it back with a small smile and a 'Thank you Sir'. Then he turned to the other guy, 'While I'm here I may as well do your ticket as well Sir'...and held out his hand ( you know where this is going...don't you! ). He has NO ticket ! His season ticket is at home...he forgot to pick it up ( or so he said ). Now the rules / law about tickets etc on British rail ( as it was at the time ) are that to travel you must be in possession of a valid ticket or authority to travel. So after a few ( loud and expletive filled ) minutes of shouting the guy gets told...'Either you pay for a ticket right now...or you'll be off at the next stop and with the Police waiting for you'. He paid lol As the conductor left the compartment he looked at me, gave me a smile and winked. Ah...don't you just LOVE karma !
@@ramadaxl yea....I always remember fearing to run into the bus-version of a train-Karen has yet to happen on either my college bus or the one public bus i take :D
The last story hits home, I got yelled almost daily for not cleaning the house fast enough. There were 9 of us kids, i was the only one doing all the cleaning.
Last story. When the family demanded he apologize for doing the right thing, he should demand everyone to apologize to him for years of abuse because what they've said to op is a whole lot worse than op ratting out his sh*tty cousin. Also, did Randy's dad get a police record for the assualt? Op should try to get some compensation for that.
It probably wouldn’t matter if he asked them. His family clearly have no morals if they defend a man cheating on his wife. They would definitely not believe their own behavior was wrong. ps. Agree about the pressing charges for assault!
Michael, OP did not do the right thing dragging the children into a horrible fight, people screaming at each other, people being hit, and the police arriving. All on Christmas. Totally embarrassing the wife. Ruining everyone’s Christmas. Just so he can say “I showed you.” OP is selfish. And wants to hurt people just because he can. I am sure the children enjoying Christmas did not abuse OP. But he sure abused them for his actions on Christmas.
@@stephanien6237 I think the family was angry how OP dragged the whole family especially the children into a bawl. Giving this information so cruelly on Christmas was horrible. He should dump the information with only adults present. Or let the wife know privately so she grieve without an audience or her children witnessing it all.
The way to deal with family members like the ones in the last story is to start recording this s*** they say to you. They only act like that to you in private because they believe that nobody else is ever going to find out about it or believe you if you tell them.
The last story op mentions real investments. Where I'm from in rural Arkansas being a successful landlord is considered, well... Success. He's better off without those people.
OP ruined Christmas forever one. The children didn’t need to see the fight of their parents marriage ending. The police on Christmas, what good memories for all the children on Christmas. How disrespectful to the wife, having everyone see her husband with another woman. Plus, ruining her last Christmas as a family. OP is cruel. He just wanted to start a scene for his own enjoyment at everyone else expense. Just because he is mistreated he thought let me punish all the children who are innocent, by ruining their Christmas. Wives do not want everyone to see her pain when she finds out this betrayal of her husband. What horrible person.
Who did OP serve revenge too. The wife? The children? The grandparents? The others also were enjoying Christmas? He punished everyone at the gathering. It was cruel and heartless to cause so much pain to everyone, specially to the children involved.
WRT the last story, some people cannot understand how others, like OP, are content to live an easygoing, non-stressful life and enjoy it, instead of putting themselves on the heart attack train trying to be the biggest, baddest, richest, nastiest, f*ing a*hole on the planet. By everything I've seen (after living and working in Silicon Valley for years) NOT being ambitious can be the healthiest and happiest choice a person can make.
I never understood people who get upset with a lowball offer. It usually only means the person has a low budget or don't have much experience negotiating. The only time you should react like the first person is if you are doing it professionally and your goal is to build a reputation for negotiating like that (which may or may be useful... it might just cause people to not do business with you.) Young couple, likes house, pushy dad pushes them to lowball and tries to negotiate hard, but what did that accomplish? The OP could have just said, 'No, we are standing firm'. If the couple had the money to come up they might have even beat the other offer, or if they couldn't, well, then they couldn't afford it and they were just trying to negotiate a price they could afford.
I don’t think it was the lowballing that was the issue but it was the massive amount of improvements they wanted done to even be willing to buy the house that was the issue the guy selling was mad at
$135,000 for a Victorian?? You're kidding, right? My grandma's house sold for around that, and hers was just your basic 2 bedroom, open concept, stucco, mail order house (not sure about the last part). Hers was a 10 min walk to the beach in Pismo, CA, but still. That seems insanely low to me. I would've paid way more than that. Y'know, if I had money, which I don't.
@@leannenuttall5655 I don't know where you've been in the Midwest, but obviously nowhere near me. My 2 bedroom ranch condo, not in the best of shape, would easily and quickly get about $175,000. In my 'neck of the woods' a storage shed would get $50,000.
Yeah, no. No one has the right to talk to you like that. Not even and especially family. Frankly, I don't care how seemingly "mild" it is. It's not okay. Families that treat you like shit are not your family. Fuck 'em. Good for you, OP!
I was part of a really dysfunctional family, and I bailed at 18 to join the navy. Went full no contact. It's a truism that you can choose your friends, but you can't choose your family.
"Well, if you could take out your other earbud. i would be able to hear you". ........... Eh, honey. Repeat what you just said, slowly and listen VERY carefully to each word. Then explain to me what the HELL possessed you to say that.
5:30 "Take out your earphone while talking, then I can hear you." IT'S TRUE!! I can't talk very well while wearing (protective) ear plugs in a noisy work area. Why? Because a person can't hear himself talk when something is blocking his hearing. Therefore, I would remove my ear plugs to speak to a co-worker! The ticket taker was correct!!
I’m glad that OP in the last story got away from his toxic family! Also those commenters that OP mentioned are absolutely horrible human beings like literally ANY form of abuse can and will be traumatizing to anyone who is victim to abuse doesn’t matter what form it is!
@@constancepeterson6156 I don’t see it like that, all OP did was show the wife what a horrible human her husband was and explain to me how OP abused all the children during the Christmas party?

Good morning Redwheel. Thanks for the stories. Have a great day.
This was a really good mix of stories! 🤩
on the last story, OP and I have a lot in common...
"Trounce a train troll!" ❤️
STOP INSULTING TRAIN TROLLS!!!
😄😁😆😅😂🤣
I love redwheel, but why does his thumbnails and titles rarely match the video? Am I missing something here?
You're not missing anything...
Only Redwheel knows the reason for the mismatching and so far, he isn't telling...
Who writes the captions for these things? Jesus God, at least read the script.
Yeah, no. No one has the right to talk to you like that. Not even and especially family. Frankly, I don't care how seemingly "mild" it is. It's not okay. Families that treat you like shit are not your family. Fuck 'em. Good for you, OP!
I was part of a really dysfunctional family, and I bailed at 18 to join the navy. Went full no contact. It's a truism that you can choose your friends, but you can't choose your family.
The last story! You are my hero.
Hello friends
"Well, if you could take out your other earbud. i would be able to hear you".
........... Eh, honey. Repeat what you just said, slowly and listen VERY carefully to each word. Then explain to me what the HELL possessed you to say that.
No Agent of Hell would NEVER Possess someone like her...
They're too afraid of getting Contaminated by whatever makes her like she is...
😄😁😆😅😂🤣
5:30 "Take out your earphone while talking, then I can hear you." IT'S TRUE!! I can't talk very well while wearing (protective) ear plugs in a noisy work area. Why? Because a person can't hear himself talk when something is blocking his hearing. Therefore, I would remove my ear plugs to speak to a co-worker! The ticket taker was correct!!
She wasn't. She was being a typical Anglo. They always act like Karens when in one of the other countries in Britain
The conductor story - The moment she called me 'boy' I would have gone "Lady, are you gender assuming?"
Success is the best revenge.
Randy, Not when it hurts other that are not involved.
I’m glad that OP in the last story got away from his toxic family! Also those commenters that OP mentioned are absolutely horrible human beings like literally ANY form of abuse can and will be traumatizing to anyone who is victim to abuse doesn’t matter what form it is!
Being abused doesn’t mean you can abuse others as a justification. OP abused every child at that Christmas Party. Plus, humiliating the wife.
@@constancepeterson6156 I don’t see it like that, all OP did was show the wife what a horrible human her husband was and explain to me how OP abused all the children during the Christmas party?
Good morning RedWheel

the stories where everyone burst out laughing or clapping are fake, they should not be given the time of day.
Last one - live a good life and celebrate your escape 👐🫶
