Listen, I’ve never raised a kid, but I’ve also never flown a helicopter before, but I saw a helicopter in a tree, I’d still be able to go “Oh they fucked up.”
Before anything else happens I feel like I should clarify that this is a joke I stole from comedian Steve Hofstetter, who has a few free stand-up shows on RUclips and most of them as albums on Spotify. Not all of the older jokes have aged well but this one absolutely did.
16:20 - I really, honestly want Patricia to sue her 18-year-old. I want her to go up in front of a judge/magistrate and lawyers and say "I've been charging my child daily 'parenting fees' ever since he was 13 and now he's moved out, he won't pay them." I'd pay to watch her humiliate and incriminate herself like that.
I broke my tooth while I was in Istanbul. It wasn't 'bad' but it was a matter of not slicing my tongue or cheek before I could get to my own dentist so I was asking around. A few people directed me to an emergency dental office but warned me that it was pretty expensive. I would be able to claim it on insurance later so he pretty much built me a whole new tooth ... it cost $100. I joke that I'm going to go back there if I need another tooth repaired.
It honestly may be cheaper to fly there, stay at a hotel for a week, to get dental done than it would to get major work done in the US. Prices are insane here for dental, and insurance doesn't cover much.
As someone with ADHD who often needs days or weeks of internal fighting to finally manage doing tasks that are super easy to others, I totally relate to the snail artist!❤
As someone who struggles with executive dysfunction and likes to draw in my free time, I can relate to this snail on multiple levels. Because yes, there are a lot of things that neurotypical people consider "easy" that I also have to spend an enormous amount of time on just convincing myself to do. Drawing a straight line is also surprisingly difficult when you don't take help from some kind of tool (ruler/book/box/something else with a long straight edge) and even then it can be fiddly to get it to be exactly horizontal and not some form of diagonal. As you can probably tell, I also have a bit of a problem with keeping my sentences short. 😹
@@novaluna9691 I feel you on the "keeping sentences short" bit😅 I gave up drawing as a teenager, mainly because I didn't believe in being able to get as good as I wanted to be, but also because I lacked the patience to get there. Nice to see that someone else continued with this amazing hobby despite their executive function issues❤️
@@mental_kintsugi Yeah art does require some level of patience. One of the main reasons I tend to stick to more cartoony/stylized stuff is that I find it easier and quicker to get a (at least somewhat) decent result, than if I were to try to draw something realistic. It also gives me more leeway to go: "Oh, that slightly wonky bit? No, no it is totally meant to look like that." All of this being said I could never have art as anything but a hobby. My imagination is way too fickle for me to have any kind of consistency in how productive I am. I also try to keep comparisons of my drawings between my own pieces, rather than comparing it to other artists I admire, given that they probably have a lot more practice and experience than I do. I also know that the stuff that they show is typically just the stuff that they themselves are really proud of, and that is really just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to what they have created. I watch a lot of art videos here on RUclips, and one thing that seems to be consistent across pretty much every artist I do watch is periods of self-doubt and them being their own worst critic, which are things I myself have experienced countless times as well. The only reason I would ever stop however, would be if I didn't enjoy it anymore, because I do it for fun, and to relax.
**laughs and cries in executive dysfunction** ... I want to write the next chapter for my current ao3 project, and I want to manage the endless chores at home...but final brain cell wants video/any sort of dopamine stimuli, too... Currently waiting on my partner to finish clean up of his workplace, but he also shares my problem of needing proper stimuli to help power through work that overwhelms us. However, he does get stuck taking on a LOT for this old mom and pop's deli. We're both pretty sure we have a lot of undiagnosed stuff going on, but not much can be done, at this time... Yaaaay, american healthcare... 🙄
You know, I hope that the world never actually figures out how to interact with ghosts because I know that society is definitely going to force them to go to work, even though they're dead.
I got my boyfriend's dad a flash drive with every recording known that the Beatles have been on, nicely organized into folders based on music, interviews, behind the scenes recordings, etc. Last time we went to visit I heard one of the rare tracks playing from his room. It only cost me a few hours of my time, and a flash drive, but it was a great present he still loves because he loves the Beatles and it isn't easy getting some of the tracks I got.
She's you daughter, not your date" it is actually really sad. The amount of girls under the age of 18 that have to go to safe houses because of a drunk father that does something is astonishing
Ahh yes, drunkenly assaulting your date is fine because she clearly consented by going on the date in the first place and no further consent is required… 💀 If anyone has a different interpretation of this ad, I would *truly* love to hear it.
@@nevermore3193hitting, or I interpreted it as SA 😅 either way is fucked up and insane that any adult would need a reminder to not treat your child in a way you would treat a potential romantic partner, but also the implication of this still suggests a lack of consent which also isn't ok with a date. The whole ad is a shitshow
That couple did not just randomly find a duck shaped tomato in their garden. I think they intentionally grew it that way. That doesn't just happen randomly. Fun fact: There's actually a practice in Japan where they grow fruits inside of molds so that the fruit will actually take the shape of the mold as it grows. This is how you get square watermelons, you just grow the watermelon in a box so it grows square. This looks like that, because it is perfectly in the shape of a rubber duck. I could believe this was random if it wasn't perfectly symmetrical and just looked like that from one specific angle but this just is the shape of a rubber duck which makes me think they grew the tomato inside of a rubber duck. Also, a lot of movies and TV shows tend to portray alien invasions as a bad thing because that's what we have done through out history is just invade and conquer foreign nations. But I honestly feel like any alien civilization advanced enough to have traveled through space would also have advanced as a society enough to where they no longer see the value in war and would only help our civilization grow. Or take one look at us, mark our planet as a danger zone and that's likely why we haven't made contact with other planets yet is cause they just know it's not safe to travel here. What is an unrealistic fantasy that I have? Growing up completely intact with a girl who is also fully intact who loves me as much as I love her and growing old together never knowing what pain feels like. It would also be great to grow up in a world where basic needs you need to function as a human being are just provided to you for free and the only things you actually have to work for are luxuries you can live without.
No damn way they didn't grow that tomato inside a rubber duck. Also, I definitely feel the "unrealistic fantasy" conclusion. Tack on to it having only people who appreciate and care for you are the ones telling you that they want to visit; that they love you, and want to be there for you. And the people prone to BSing, or loving only when convenient for them, never approach. My sisters and I had to block a relative tonight who claimed they wanted to visit, in September, but they only give a shit about us when it's convenient for them, and we're tired of their games after all these years. They also tried to sneak my address from my baby sister, earlier, but I pretty much made it clear to my sister I was done with them; hence, why we all ultimately chose to block that person. I never forgot how that person tried to guilt me into forgiving the egg donor for abandoning us, so that she could pursue her own happiness. And the anger I felt, that day, has been festering for years. It's a relief to finally cut them off for good, but I still have a ways to go on healing from the rest of the abandonment issues.
The guy being threatened firing because he didn't show up to work because he was dead. It's sad and funny. Many years ago, I worked at a company where an employee's official reason for termination was "failure to work while deceased.". That was actually on his paperwork.
@@chrisbeer5685 Nope - companies are rarely required to pay severance here. That company I worked for never did. And if you are fired for cause no severance would be required. Failure to work is a valid reason to deny any additional benefits, probably why they worded it that way. I've only received severance from one company when I was laid off.
Anyone else think his description of time traveling back to being ten and then running out of ability make you think of the "gifted kid to burned out adult" pipeline?
To the lady who forgot she was diagnosed with dimensia, that's why it's the law in a lot of places that you have to have an emergency contact be brought in on the conversation, even if only by phone.
I’m not trying to make fun of your misspelling, but I had to chuckle at your writing “dimensia” instead of “dementia”, because back in the 1980s, RCA introduced a line of high-end home audio-video gear, which was the “next dimension” of home entertainment. It was called RCA Dimensia.
Y'know, being the kind of neurodivergent who can't stand eye contact, the Click being one of the only RUclipsrs I watch that I can maintain a lot of eye contact with even through a screen is quite comforting.

Yup, I’m 12 and already have a gifted kid burnout. I have trauma from my previous schools (yes multiple) and am not going to school right now, I’m also depressed. I just wish to be happy and “normal” (Ik that’s not a thing but life just seems so much easier if I was less “GifTeD”)
after my older sister died we got a mailed letter for her from the bank basically saying she needed to pay her credit card before X date or she'd have to pay an even bigger amount. my mom called the bank to let them know she was dead and they said they'd make sure to close her account and take care of that. over the following months I think we got at least 5 other letters from the bank addressed to her still saying the same thing. my mom had to call twice again to tell them to fix their mistake and that she had already called before and they were like "oh we're so sorry ma'am, we'll take care of it" before it'd happen again. it was both frustrating and kind of funny, like really, how desperate are you to get money from civilians that you'll keep harassing a dead girl to pay her credit card? 😂
A friend of mine had a dog that LOVED fetch, but one day after playing for a long time, just froze. They couldn't get him to move, they didn't know what was going on. They went to the vet and found out the dog likely had ocd/anxiety. He COULDN'T stop playing fetch, even when he was past his limit, and the freezing was from the anxiety of anticipating the next throw. 'You can't take something he loves from him completely, but you also can't let him do the activity as long as he'll go- because he won't stop until he has a shut down like he did before coming here.' So, the lesson here is, yes, animals have some of the same disorders we do (seizure meds humans take were developed for dogs first), even stuff we love can be a burden and restrictions on things, even enjoyable things, helps us and our loved ones be happy and healthy.
My dog does the same on walks. He doesn't do well in 80F weather. He will slow down and lay around in the shade a lot, but if I try to take him home, he refuses. I sometimes carry him home because I don't want him to get heatstroke.
@@IntrovertedBearmy dog is the same, I used to feel guilty about cutting the walk short but I've learned that it is better for her to do that in the summer.
11:27 - This is what I believe the "Artists Eye" is. It's why so many artists feel we're never at the skill level we want. The better we get the more of the process we're aware of, and the more improvements we know we can make. It never ends since the more you train your skill the stronger your eye gets and there is always another level to reach you can achieve. It's also why I think people who don't make art have a harder time putting their feelings on it into words. I have a hard time with colour balancing and, because I know I struggle with it, I always see how other artists tackle their pallets and comment on it when I'm impressed. It's hard to give an accurate comment when you have no idea what the terminology, skill level, or techniques you're dealing with are.
24:32 "you would have to pretend to be stupid so they dont think you are a genius but then your genius suddenly ends" dont worry thats just being a gifted kid
With the snail painting thing, I’ve recently got into coding and you see all these dumb little indie games which look terrible and you laugh at because you see all these amazing beautiful games made by large companies and even indie developers who’ve been working on coding and art for years before releasing the game and we really don’t give the people who make those dumb solo games with art that looks like a three year old wanted to try blender enough credit for learning to code this idea that they wanted to put out into the world and i think its really sad we’ve got to this point
A long time ago I read in a book and there’s a quote that I still remember the main idea of (but not the real quote) “we borrow the earth from our children, give it back to them better than we found it” and I feel like we really should have listened a long time ago
Unfortunately that "She's your daughter, not your date" sign is 100% real, my family and I saw it while we were drving through Alabama on our way to another state. It was surreal and also immensely depressing to see that the memes were true.
I had to buy a $250 chemistry book for college where all we really needed was a code inside for a website. We never touched the book but if you didn't enter the code on the website you were kicked out of class. The teacher wrote the book and made royalties off of sales.
At 12:00, that's what I love about living in Germany. When I had to get my anxiety meds for the first time at the pharmacy with a prescription, the lady there looked at it and said "You know that you have to pay extra for these, right? Your insurance doesn't cover everything." At first I was thinking that I had to pay a bigger amount of money, like 50€ or if not more. And I had no such money on me at that moment. Nah... 5€! They warned me because of 5€! Scared the shit out of me.
This is so odd, the thing about the girlfriend in 23:21 I mean. My husband was not aware of how shitty people are sometimes treated and what a great person he is for not being totally self centered. Until I showed him how other guys treat their girlfriends. Guys, the bar is low. If you are a decent person indicating you are available and not one of those "nice guys" that expect obedience for being normal, you are a gem and I thank you for being that way.
31:29 This reminds me of a news story I heard last year about financial analysts getting mad at Costco for refusing to jack up their prices like all of the other stores were doing. The analysts said Costco should follow suit because their customers would be happy to pay the higher costs. Yeah, it's totally that and not because we have little choice to pay what the stores charge or risk starving to death. Hearing that story finally made me understand some shoplifters.

~4:40 This is why you don't take the lump sum. Take the weekly payments for life. It changes the tax bracket and decreases the tax amount. Also makes it impossible to spend it all frivolously and/or have it syphoned away by leeches. Delay your gratification if you ever win the lottery.
17:27 I lived in Dubuque, IA for two years in the late 90s and I remember a billboard near my office that was "Epileptic seizures are not caused by demons." It scared me that such a sign was necessary, but then that is a very Catholic town.
I had a psychology teacher in college who confidently told us that symptoms like hearing voices in your head are caused by jinns (i.e. Arabic demon-like entities). This was in the 2010s... 💀
15:53 Cats generally communicate via subvocalization with other cats. They just meow for us, so in a sense, they do speak our language, we just still don't understand it.

I ended up in the emergency room in Italy once (I ended up being fine, I just passed out randomly). They ran all these tests on me, and I ended up spending the whole night there because of how busy it was. They never gave me a bill and never asked for my insurance...
We lost my old pokemon collection during a move when I was a kid. I remember looking up how much some of the rarer cards were worth a few years ago. I could've purchased a house, paid off my student loans and started up a rental property even with some of them being in mid-condition with what I had. god damnit mom. -_-
Had a cat once that could say: “no”, “hee-oh”, “she-et” and “heirre”. And we knew she meant and she knew we knew what she meant, so she’d super pissed off when you didn’t do it or respond right away. She’d also flick light switches on or off, usually to drive us out of a room but sometimes to see if we were impressed enough to give her a treat.
Amazon has duckie shaped moulds for making candles. Those old people stuck a tomato into the mould and let it keep growing, so it took on the shape of a duck. The Japanese have made cubical watermelons this way for decades, growing all the watermelons inside boxes.
22:07 it's really sad then, when you can't even do that anymore, because you need to save money, and electricity just got too expensive to shower hot when you need it. I've replaced my comfort showers with going to bed and wrapping myself in the blankets, sometimes with hot water bottles.
That Scott Pilgrim vs The World panel where he insults himself and Ramona in the same four words was more brutal than any insult ever given in an attempt to piss someone off...
26:52 this is a very appropriate punishment for Bezos. Minimum wage jobs with Amazon work conditions. If he does something that would get him fired he has to start all over again. Actually this sounds like the Hell situation for billionaires in general. Also any customers they interact with are visitors from Karen Hell Edit: working minimum wage, Bezos would need about 2.5 million years to work off this punishment. That’s assuming he never did something to get fired and also worked 24/7
21:15 Ryanair once applied to the European authorities with a plan to introduce STANDING CAPACITY in airplanes. Like, you know, on a bus/tram. They got rejected.
I did the math! Note: this doesn't even include tax or living expenses. This is if every penny was saved. Google says minimum wage in the US is $7.25 an hour and Bezos' net worth is 150.8 billion. It'd take 2,600,000,000 eight-hour work days for him to earn that much. Now let's say he's doing the standard 40 hour work week. It'd take him roughly 7,123,287.7 years to earn his fortune.
Click, you’re hilarious. Thank you for being a ray of sunshine during some of the darkest days of my life. Never stop being a positive influence and overall amazing person ❤
Since Click's videos started showing up on my homepage, I watch them every time I feel a bit down. Thanks for making such wholesome videos because often your humor and compliments make my day better ❤❤
My late mother HATED the end of Childhood's End. I legit did a double take because I hadn't heard that name in decades and Click just brought up the memory of her telling me that she hurled the book across the room when she finished and cried for hours after. I won't spoil but be prepared for that if you do decide to pick it up.

Hey Click, just wanted to say I really appreciate your book recommendations like Childhood's end or Factfulness that you throw in every now and then. I spent 3 months in a medical rehabilitation center trying to recover from long covid and even more time at home on the sofa, reading has kept me sane.
Christmas was pretty sparse when I was a kid (2 brothers 3 sisters) but I still remember a book I got when I was about 12. It was about dog heroes, and had a blue-eyed husky on the cover and I can still see that cover clear as day, over 50 years later.
Tbf I would LOVE a Dad channel from Click Childless or not, I think you'd give amazing parental advice, maybe my parents will listen to another adult for once
17:50 Ok but my bank app actually has an option for this. Being presented with the total amount of money I spent on "Eating Out" during the month I was moving house was a slap in the face... Not to mention how depressed it made me when I bought tickets for my birthday and saw it also tallies things as "Entertainment" 😰 Like, I know I'm gonna be getting my money back because it's a pay-back gift, but my heart still flipped!
I love hearing someone laughing so much that they can't get out a funny joke,maybe it's not as funny as it would be but it's just so nice to know that they are enjoying themselves
My dad’s friend was really into magic a long time ago, and probably like a decade ago he sold all of his cards. He had a freaking black lotus (pretty much the most valuable mtg card, it can go anywhere from 5k to 20k used.) in pretty much perfect condition. He ended up packaging all of his cards into 5 card packs in blank envelopes and selling them for like $10 each (for reference, I used to be a bit into it and probably have almost a thousand cards total, and my collection is very much considered small) and made so much money because there was a chance that the buyer could get such a rare card so cheap. Honestly a genius move, since he made more selling all of his cards like that than he would’ve selling them individually because he sold all of the like 10 cent cards for the same amount and that was like 80% of the cards. But seriously, look at the mtg card market, most go for less than a dollar, but it scales up quick. If you need a specific card it’s not too uncommon for it to go for like $50.
25:24 YO CLICK SAID THE F WORD. I actually didnt expect it because he usually doesnt swear in his videos, he must have been really shocked to let one slip like that
I myself personally don’t find it weird, I’m used to having some of the family friendly youtubers I follow, swear every now and then. I used to take offense to swearing when I was younger, but as I got older and getting used to around my father who swears like a sailor for the 18 years of my life living with him, I no longer cared about anyone swearing. Though I completely understand why others do find it weird.
26:54 According to google, at a minimum wage of 7.25$/hr, it would take 69,000 years to earn a billion dollars. Bezos's current net worth is 150 billion. 69k x 150 = 10,350,000. It would take over ten million years to earn that much on minimum wage
In California it's much higher, $16/hr. It would only take more than 1.4 millions years to make that back. That's almost 5 times as long as Homo Sapiens have been around.
11:04 as an artist myself i see some seemingly simple paintings (or sculpture, or textiles etc...) that i know took years of technique mastery that i will probably never reach, and I'm always impressed. Even that large canvas with one straight brush stroke, if done by human hand, is harder than i can imagine.
The issue I have with some things in art, is that I know some things are supposed to be really difficult to pull off….but sometimes it’s just uninteresting and boring to look at, almost ‘feeling’ uninspired due to how disinteresting it is, even if that’s not the case. I can’t really get all starry eyed and impressed by a line.
that one around 29:00 hit home. i talked to my mom a few days ago about my recent raise. to preface this, i grew up in a suburban area, 3 bedroom house, detached garage, above ground pool. lived on maybe an acre of land but had endless forests surrounding us where my friends and I rode quads n got into all kinda shenanigans. hung out in groups of 2-4 all the time at whoever's place we wanted to plenty of food n drinks n space for all of us back to the raise conversation - she tells me that i make more than her and my dad combined. i live in a 1 bedroom house with my wife in an urban area, not a city but houses all 10 feet apart. then i hear they don't make a lot more now but part own their business and have equity. (plus dont pay for mmj) i barely make it paycheck to paycheck. this is why i hate everything. if it was the late 90s i would be living an upper middle class life. murica.... or whatever
Childhood's End is such a cool book. I read it a couple months ago and it's really interesting to see the difference between sci-fi in the 1950's compared to some of the stuff I grew up with and stuff I could see made today. It's also surprisingly relevant given America today.
Actually I think there’s a channel out there called “Dad, How Do I _?” It’s run but this Dad Guy who posts tutorials on how to change a tire, shave, tie a tie, cook a steak, clean a BBQ etc. but yea I would also like a similar idea featuring The Click, maybe he could do like Math lessons or something - maybe working out all the ridiculous equations found In memes lol Or Swedish lessons, that would be pretty cool
I think the point of having toys as kid is to enjoy them. Let adults buy stuff for collection (so long as they don't hoard it all and make the kids miss out) and let kids actually play with their toys.
Animals are the sweetest. I got 30-40 injections in my spine every 2-3 weeks for a year and my cat always knew. She would watch over me while I laid down and looked concerned any time I moved a lot. I'm having seizures, we think because of inflammation in my brain and my cat wakes me up when I have them while sleeping. She comforts me when I dislocate my joints, she stays with me all day when I'm sick (normal people sick), and talks to me a lot when I'm having a bad day. Her and I are extremely close. She knows a couple dozen words and phrases and has learned how to communicate with us to tell us what she wants. My boyfriend and I have been together for 9 years and for the last 2 years she has made our little family complete.
Presents are never really about the price Yes, I’m going to ask for a $500 terrarium tank for Christmas. But also, one of my most memorable gifts was a pack of tissues from my best friend (because my birthday is right at the start of allergy season) Some gifts are expensive and great but others can be cheap and just as memorable
Mood. My great grandmother was an artist, and died last year, she left a bunch of unfinished paintings. I am also an artist, and will be finishing the paintings to give to my great aunts and grandmother. She left behind all her paints, technically these presents are ‘free’ for me to make. They mean the world to them.
18:06 Well, my bank does/did have something like that, but it can only figure out like utilities, groceries, food and others and my others section sometimes show that I spend more than my income, which is weird because I've never found myself waiting for the next paycheck to buy anything
Yes I agree with what you said about gifts. Our family always got together for the holidays when I was a kid and while I always appreciated the toys and clothes, my favorite gufts came from my great grandma, she would get me books, journals, and paper. The only person aside from my Dad who ever gave me a gift I truly loved and was excited for.
Listen, I’ve never raised a kid, but I’ve also never flown a helicopter before, but I saw a helicopter in a tree, I’d still be able to go “Oh they fucked up.”

A few people directed me to an emergency dental office but warned me that it was pretty expensive. I would be able to claim it on insurance later so he pretty much built me a whole new tooth ... it cost $100. I joke that I'm going to go back there if I need another tooth repaired.
It honestly may be cheaper to fly there, stay at a hotel for a week, to get dental done than it would to get major work done in the US. Prices are insane here for dental, and insurance doesn't cover much.

As someone with ADHD who often needs days or weeks of internal fighting to finally manage doing tasks that are super easy to others, I totally relate to the snail artist!❤
The snail artist actually finished their art, I aspire to do that. They are a good role model.
As someone who struggles with executive dysfunction and likes to draw in my free time, I can relate to this snail on multiple levels. Because yes, there are a lot of things that neurotypical people consider "easy" that I also have to spend an enormous amount of time on just convincing myself to do. Drawing a straight line is also surprisingly difficult when you don't take help from some kind of tool (ruler/book/box/something else with a long straight edge) and even then it can be fiddly to get it to be exactly horizontal and not some form of diagonal. As you can probably tell, I also have a bit of a problem with keeping my sentences short. 😹
@@novaluna9691 I feel you on the "keeping sentences short" bit😅 I gave up drawing as a teenager, mainly because I didn't believe in being able to get as good as I wanted to be, but also because I lacked the patience to get there. Nice to see that someone else continued with this amazing hobby despite their executive function issues❤️
@@mental_kintsugi Yeah art does require some level of patience.
One of the main reasons I tend to stick to more cartoony/stylized stuff is that I find it easier and quicker to get a (at least somewhat) decent result, than if I were to try to draw something realistic. It also gives me more leeway to go: "Oh, that slightly wonky bit? No, no it is totally meant to look like that."
All of this being said I could never have art as anything but a hobby. My imagination is way too fickle for me to have any kind of consistency in how productive I am.
I also try to keep comparisons of my drawings between my own pieces, rather than comparing it to other artists I admire, given that they probably have a lot more practice and experience than I do. I also know that the stuff that they show is typically just the stuff that they themselves are really proud of, and that is really just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to what they have created.
I watch a lot of art videos here on RUclips, and one thing that seems to be consistent across pretty much every artist I do watch is periods of self-doubt and them being their own worst critic, which are things I myself have experienced countless times as well.
The only reason I would ever stop however, would be if I didn't enjoy it anymore, because I do it for fun, and to relax.

I got my boyfriend's dad a flash drive with every recording known that the Beatles have been on, nicely organized into folders based on music, interviews, behind the scenes recordings, etc. Last time we went to visit I heard one of the rare tracks playing from his room. It only cost me a few hours of my time, and a flash drive, but it was a great present he still loves because he loves the Beatles and it isn't easy getting some of the tracks I got.
Oh that's so sweet! As a person who gets head over heels over their favorite bands I can only imagine how cool that would be!
She's you daughter, not your date" it is actually really sad. The amount of girls under the age of 18 that have to go to safe houses because of a drunk father that does something is astonishing

Ah yes, someone who needs punching.
Ahh yes, drunkenly assaulting your date is fine because she clearly consented by going on the date in the first place and no further consent is required… 💀
If anyone has a different interpretation of this ad, I would *truly* love to hear it.
@@emilyrlndefinitely read that way to me. Like, you can hit your date but not your daughter? And it's fine if you're drunk?
@@nevermore3193hitting, or I interpreted it as SA 😅 either way is fucked up and insane that any adult would need a reminder to not treat your child in a way you would treat a potential romantic partner, but also the implication of this still suggests a lack of consent which also isn't ok with a date. The whole ad is a shitshow
That couple did not just randomly find a duck shaped tomato in their garden. I think they intentionally grew it that way. That doesn't just happen randomly.
Fun fact: There's actually a practice in Japan where they grow fruits inside of molds so that the fruit will actually take the shape of the mold as it grows. This is how you get square watermelons, you just grow the watermelon in a box so it grows square. This looks like that, because it is perfectly in the shape of a rubber duck. I could believe this was random if it wasn't perfectly symmetrical and just looked like that from one specific angle but this just is the shape of a rubber duck which makes me think they grew the tomato inside of a rubber duck.
Also, a lot of movies and TV shows tend to portray alien invasions as a bad thing because that's what we have done through out history is just invade and conquer foreign nations. But I honestly feel like any alien civilization advanced enough to have traveled through space would also have advanced as a society enough to where they no longer see the value in war and would only help our civilization grow. Or take one look at us, mark our planet as a danger zone and that's likely why we haven't made contact with other planets yet is cause they just know it's not safe to travel here.
What is an unrealistic fantasy that I have? Growing up completely intact with a girl who is also fully intact who loves me as much as I love her and growing old together never knowing what pain feels like. It would also be great to grow up in a world where basic needs you need to function as a human being are just provided to you for free and the only things you actually have to work for are luxuries you can live without.
The unrealistic fantasy hit too hard bro
No damn way they didn't grow that tomato inside a rubber duck.
Also, I definitely feel the "unrealistic fantasy" conclusion. Tack on to it having only people who appreciate and care for you are the ones telling you that they want to visit; that they love you, and want to be there for you. And the people prone to BSing, or loving only when convenient for them, never approach.
My sisters and I had to block a relative tonight who claimed they wanted to visit, in September, but they only give a shit about us when it's convenient for them, and we're tired of their games after all these years. They also tried to sneak my address from my baby sister, earlier, but I pretty much made it clear to my sister I was done with them; hence, why we all ultimately chose to block that person.
I never forgot how that person tried to guilt me into forgiving the egg donor for abandoning us, so that she could pursue her own happiness. And the anger I felt, that day, has been festering for years. It's a relief to finally cut them off for good, but I still have a ways to go on healing from the rest of the abandonment issues.

20:14 I think if someone's in jail for any crime and that crime becomes legalized during their sentence then the sentence should be ended.
The guy being threatened firing because he didn't show up to work because he was dead. It's sad and funny. Many years ago, I worked at a company where an employee's official reason for termination was "failure to work while deceased.". That was actually on his paperwork.
I'm not questioning *that* it happened, but *how* on earth does that happen (that's not even rational)
Does that mean they pay severance to the deceased persons heirs?
@@bellablue5285 I know. It's ridiculous. That's what made it so memorable. I guess they just needed some official reason for the paperwork.
@@chrisbeer5685 Nope - companies are rarely required to pay severance here. That company I worked for never did. And if you are fired for cause no severance would be required. Failure to work is a valid reason to deny any additional benefits, probably why they worded it that way.
I've only received severance from one company when I was laid off.

To the lady who forgot she was diagnosed with dimensia, that's why it's the law in a lot of places that you have to have an emergency contact be brought in on the conversation, even if only by phone.
I’m not trying to make fun of your misspelling, but I had to chuckle at your writing “dimensia” instead of “dementia”, because back in the 1980s, RCA introduced a line of high-end home audio-video gear, which was the “next dimension” of home entertainment. It was called RCA Dimensia.

after my older sister died we got a mailed letter for her from the bank basically saying she needed to pay her credit card before X date or she'd have to pay an even bigger amount. my mom called the bank to let them know she was dead and they said they'd make sure to close her account and take care of that.
over the following months I think we got at least 5 other letters from the bank addressed to her still saying the same thing. my mom had to call twice again to tell them to fix their mistake and that she had already called before and they were like "oh we're so sorry ma'am, we'll take care of it" before it'd happen again. it was both frustrating and kind of funny, like really, how desperate are you to get money from civilians that you'll keep harassing a dead girl to pay her credit card? 😂
A friend of mine had a dog that LOVED fetch, but one day after playing for a long time, just froze. They couldn't get him to move, they didn't know what was going on. They went to the vet and found out the dog likely had ocd/anxiety. He COULDN'T stop playing fetch, even when he was past his limit, and the freezing was from the anxiety of anticipating the next throw. 'You can't take something he loves from him completely, but you also can't let him do the activity as long as he'll go- because he won't stop until he has a shut down like he did before coming here.' So, the lesson here is, yes, animals have some of the same disorders we do (seizure meds humans take were developed for dogs first), even stuff we love can be a burden and restrictions on things, even enjoyable things, helps us and our loved ones be happy and healthy.
My dog does the same on walks. He doesn't do well in 80F weather. He will slow down and lay around in the shade a lot, but if I try to take him home, he refuses. I sometimes carry him home because I don't want him to get heatstroke.
It's a very common thing. Between compulsive fetch and ruptured ACLs, we don't recommend long games of fetch.
@@IntrovertedBearmy dog is the same, I used to feel guilty about cutting the walk short but I've learned that it is better for her to do that in the summer.
11:27 - This is what I believe the "Artists Eye" is. It's why so many artists feel we're never at the skill level we want. The better we get the more of the process we're aware of, and the more improvements we know we can make. It never ends since the more you train your skill the stronger your eye gets and there is always another level to reach you can achieve.
It's also why I think people who don't make art have a harder time putting their feelings on it into words. I have a hard time with colour balancing and, because I know I struggle with it, I always see how other artists tackle their pallets and comment on it when I'm impressed. It's hard to give an accurate comment when you have no idea what the terminology, skill level, or techniques you're dealing with are.

My dad’s friend was really into magic a long time ago, and probably like a decade ago he sold all of his cards. He had a freaking black lotus (pretty much the most valuable mtg card, it can go anywhere from 5k to 20k used.) in pretty much perfect condition. He ended up packaging all of his cards into 5 card packs in blank envelopes and selling them for like $10 each (for reference, I used to be a bit into it and probably have almost a thousand cards total, and my collection is very much considered small) and made so much money because there was a chance that the buyer could get such a rare card so cheap. Honestly a genius move, since he made more selling all of his cards like that than he would’ve selling them individually because he sold all of the like 10 cent cards for the same amount and that was like 80% of the cards.
But seriously, look at the mtg card market, most go for less than a dollar, but it scales up quick. If you need a specific card it’s not too uncommon for it to go for like $50.
25:24 YO CLICK SAID THE F WORD. I actually didnt expect it because he usually doesnt swear in his videos, he must have been really shocked to let one slip like that
He says it on stream quite a bit, but it is still weird to hear
I myself personally don’t find it weird, I’m used to having some of the family friendly youtubers I follow, swear every now and then. I used to take offense to swearing when I was younger, but as I got older and getting used to around my father who swears like a sailor for the 18 years of my life living with him, I no longer cared about anyone swearing. Though I completely understand why others do find it weird.
@@db_524 I'm not weirded out by it, I've just never seen it uncensored on the click

According to google, at a minimum wage of 7.25$/hr, it would take 69,000 years to earn a billion dollars. Bezos's current net worth is 150 billion. 69k x 150 = 10,350,000. It would take over ten million years to earn that much on minimum wage
In California it's much higher, $16/hr. It would only take more than 1.4 millions years to make that back. That's almost 5 times as long as Homo Sapiens have been around.
11:04 as an artist myself i see some seemingly simple paintings (or sculpture, or textiles etc...) that i know took years of technique mastery that i will probably never reach, and I'm always impressed.
Even that large canvas with one straight brush stroke, if done by human hand, is harder than i can imagine.
The issue I have with some things in art, is that I know some things are supposed to be really difficult to pull off….but sometimes it’s just uninteresting and boring to look at, almost ‘feeling’ uninspired due to how disinteresting it is, even if that’s not the case. I can’t really get all starry eyed and impressed by a line.
that one around 29:00 hit home. i talked to my mom a few days ago about my recent raise.
to preface this, i grew up in a suburban area, 3 bedroom house, detached garage, above ground pool. lived on maybe an acre of land but had endless forests surrounding us where my friends and I rode quads n got into all kinda shenanigans. hung out in groups of 2-4 all the time at whoever's place we wanted to plenty of food n drinks n space for all of us
back to the raise conversation - she tells me that i make more than her and my dad combined. i live in a 1 bedroom house with my wife in an urban area, not a city but houses all 10 feet apart. then i hear they don't make a lot more now but part own their business and have equity. (plus dont pay for mmj) i barely make it paycheck to paycheck. this is why i hate everything. if it was the late 90s i would be living an upper middle class life. murica.... or whatever
Childhood's End is such a cool book. I read it a couple months ago and it's really interesting to see the difference between sci-fi in the 1950's compared to some of the stuff I grew up with and stuff I could see made today. It's also surprisingly relevant given America today.
27:29 No Pokey, it's much... MUCH WORSE. They will prove... the Earth... is an oblong spheroid.
This man has mastered the art of upload schedules.
The wholesome interlude should become a feature of every video. Perfect timing, thank you so much!
you should make a dad channel where you treat your viewers as your kids and teach them stuff
Yesss
I feel like the comments would be overrun by "yes daddy"s ngl
Actually I think there’s a channel out there called “Dad, How Do I _?” It’s run but this Dad Guy who posts tutorials on how to change a tire, shave, tie a tie, cook a steak, clean a BBQ etc. but yea I would also like a similar idea featuring The Click, maybe he could do like Math lessons or something - maybe working out all the ridiculous equations found In memes lol
Or Swedish lessons, that would be pretty cool
@@seshirumakara2594 that channel sounds awesomen
@@seshirumakara2594 yeah thats what my comment was inspired by
I think the point of having toys as kid is to enjoy them. Let adults buy stuff for collection (so long as they don't hoard it all and make the kids miss out) and let kids actually play with their toys.
27:35 It's mythical when one of your favourite youtubers starts talking about your favourite book.
Animals are the sweetest. I got 30-40 injections in my spine every 2-3 weeks for a year and my cat always knew. She would watch over me while I laid down and looked concerned any time I moved a lot. I'm having seizures, we think because of inflammation in my brain and my cat wakes me up when I have them while sleeping. She comforts me when I dislocate my joints, she stays with me all day when I'm sick (normal people sick), and talks to me a lot when I'm having a bad day. Her and I are extremely close. She knows a couple dozen words and phrases and has learned how to communicate with us to tell us what she wants. My boyfriend and I have been together for 9 years and for the last 2 years she has made our little family complete.
"Sorry, I'm getting very carried away, im gunna- yes" me every time
24:58 you know, it’s not a good sign when they said 22 ago and my immediate response was “oh, so 8 or 9 days tops?” And I was right
Can we all just agree that Click's videos and comment sections have the best vibes?
Yesss
Yes
Click’s comments section is one of the most wholesome on the platform
The Click is slowly achieving world peace.

"The Hundred Yard Forest"...
Presents are never really about the price
Yes, I’m going to ask for a $500 terrarium tank for Christmas. But also, one of my most memorable gifts was a pack of tissues from my best friend (because my birthday is right at the start of allergy season)
Some gifts are expensive and great but others can be cheap and just as memorable
Mood. My great grandmother was an artist, and died last year, she left a bunch of unfinished paintings. I am also an artist, and will be finishing the paintings to give to my great aunts and grandmother. She left behind all her paints, technically these presents are ‘free’ for me to make. They mean the world to them.
@@jadebeason7552 That sounds like such a lovely idea.
I'm a trans guy who generally gets dysphoric from being called any feminine terms, but being called a queen still felt a little nice
Click: should i make a dad channel?
Me, unwillingly: you are my daaAAAD ♪ you're my DAD! boogie woogie woogie ♫ ♬
The wholesome memes hiding in the middle were greatly appreciated. Perhaps worthy of a full video? 🥺
another video of The Click? Day instantly better!
Idk why but whenever I watch him I feel extremely calm he always makes my day better
18:06 Well, my bank does/did have something like that, but it can only figure out like utilities, groceries, food and others and my others section sometimes show that I spend more than my income, which is weird because I've never found myself waiting for the next paycheck to buy anything
Same. My bank shows that I spend more money than my income. Makes me wanna cry.
@@IntrovertedBear That's why I stopped checking lol
Yes I agree with what you said about gifts. Our family always got together for the holidays when I was a kid and while I always appreciated the toys and clothes, my favorite gufts came from my great grandma, she would get me books, journals, and paper. The only person aside from my Dad who ever gave me a gift I truly loved and was excited for.
