A Walk On The Wild Side | Reading Reddit Stories

Hello and welcome to Smoshreads Reddit Stories. I'm Shane and today's theme is some wild stories. These are just some wild am I the asshole stories and I am joined by two people who have really long hair. That's the true thing and who are also acting wild. Olivia and Amanda thank you for joining me here. We're just two girls with right? I'm just two girls. I don't really want to be a girl. What are you going to say? You want to take a bite out of this? Yeah, we do have big podcasts. We're just two girls, but she's not a demon, right? Okay, not suspicious. Oh no, she's acting like sorry, or rings. I see them everywhere now. Yeah. Okay, I've had one for a few months. Let's go. Love this. You're about to do a tight five. I'm sorry. Um, or rings. See them everywhere. Oh, over the place. Man, you were an order, right? Come on upstate. What's up with that? You track your sleep? Courtney got it for me for Christmas. Oh, Courtney got it for Christmas. Courtney, is that your wife? Oh, wife. Talk about wives, huh? Continue. Podcast mics have changed you. I'm fully just doing stand-up. She's just doing stand-up. Sitting down. Yeah. Um, well, I've been told that some of these stories are truly wild. I can't. All over the place. Yeah. I can't. Why? Why? I'm glad we're in this zone. How did we get here? All right, Vanessa and Shay. And wild, and I just thought wild. Yeah. Okay, go ahead. Wild and crazy. You're doing too much. Yeah, you're doing fine. Please stop. Okay. Well, do you want me to just start reading these stories? Yeah. Okay, I think it would be really cool off. We'll offline about this, but when you end your day and because of Aura Ring tracks, like your stress, I would love to see this hour. Honestly, so the last time, yeah, since I got the Aura Ring, when I do red stories days, it does often say I'm stressed. But I think that means I'm engaged. I think like it, like, let's do a Shane guesses on guessing your own Aura Ring. I'm guessing that I'm stressed right now. I got it to track my sleep to see if I'm sleeping well. And did you sleep well last night? I slept okay. It was like kind of like a 78 out of a hundred. That's good. It's good. Yeah, it could be better. Yeah. It could be better. That's scary. That's what the hell is going on. You said wild is something. And you just like you're a sleeper agent. You you have good sleep. You know, I think you have because you're a mommy and I don't know why you have a toddler. You must sleep really well. Good sleep. I just did a lot of meditating. You have quality. You have quality sleep, you know. I think it's so hard because you're dead at the end of the day. Exactly. You're quality sleep. I have long sleep, but probably all 13%. Not not efficient sleep. Not effective sleep. Not effective. Interesting. All right. Well, these stories. I don't think they have anything to do with sleep. I can't wait. Let's get into them. Sorry. But this first story does have to do something with wine, which I know Amanda loves. This comes from Am I the asshole supposed in February of this year. Am I the asshole for asking my friend to pay me back for the wine he drank while house sitting? I have so much to say. I already have thought. Me too. She's like, is it a full body? A chilled? Yeah. It depends on orange. If it's like a $500 bottle of wine. But if you just have wine hanging out at your place, I would I want to know if he opened the fresh bottle. I see some details. Okay. So I a 26-year-old woman had my friend a 27-year-old man watch my place and my cat for the weekend. I told him he could help himself to whatever in the kitchen, which I thought was just like common sense for snacks and stuff. I got back and realized he opened this $120 bottle of vintage barolo I was saving for my promotion. He literally drank the whole thing alone while watching Netflix. When I asked him about it, he got all weird and said I gave him permission because the wine was in the kitchen. Like, okay, but who drinks a $100 bottle of wine without asking first? I sent him a Venmo for $80. Give him a discount, LOL. And now he's calling me tacky and told our group chat, I'm a bad host. I feel like there's literally an unwritten rule of guess logic where you don't touch the most expensive thing in the house. If I tell you to help yourself to my garage, it doesn't mean you can just drive off in my car. I don't know. Am I the asshole here? He's making me feel like I'm being extra, but I feel like he totally took advantage of me. I don't know. It's also just 120 bucks. Oh my god. I'm so insane. Okay, first of all, okay, here's a, okay, first of all, you go ahead. First of all, first, okay, first of all, is there a price tag on your wine saying $120? Don't touch this thing. I, yeah, when you, I've gone to wine shops and when you look around, there's really no signifier of what makes a wine expensive or not. Yeah. You have to know a lot about wine to clock. I also cannot stand when people go make yourself at home, help yourself to anything, and they don't mean it. Yeah. If it was in the kitchen, honey, I would say that that's a compliment. That's someone's like, well, they said I could make myself at home. I'm going to drink this beautiful bottle of wine and watch Netflix. Absolutely. Like, I'm sorry that it was $120. That sucks, but don't you dare try to vent mouth. Yeah, ask for a vent mouth. You simply can't. And there's this whole thing of like, well, it's an unwritten rule. It's like, yeah, if, but also what I would have done, if I had something really special in my kitchen, I just said, help yourself to whatever, accept the one thing. That's expensive that I'm saving it for something. That's all. This is outrageous. Also, did she pay him for the weekend? If he's watching for free, then dude. If anyone's watching, so when I had a dog, if someone was watching my dog and they were like, I don't want to be paid, I would automatically get them dinner, a bottle of wine already have that set up. But if I said you can have anything, you best believe I'm being like, if there is a fancy wine, I'm going to tell them. But like, if I say you can have anything, then you can have anything. Yeah, I don't think it's that big of a deal. Like, like, they're doing for me. I don't like to stay in other people's homes. So that's already a tour. And like, it's not like, I don't want to, anyways, what I'm saying is it's, I don't think it's a big deal. And I would be happy for my friend to drink that wine and watch Netflix. Absolutely. Yeah. According to I had a Tommy watch our cats one time when we were gone for over for over a week. And we literally bought wine. We were like, because we wanted him to be there and hang out with our cat. So when we came back, I was like, Oh, he had some of the wine. I was like, good. He's hanging out. No, not a, we bought 50 bottles of wine. Did he drink them all? No, we bought some really nice orange wine for him. So I would be knowing that because we know that he loves orange wine. And also, but it was like, I, I hope if someone's staying and watching our cats, like, I'm like, give them a reason to like, hang out and stay there because they're spending with your pet, the better. So he probably only had one bottle of wine. And it was probably a nice one. But like that, that makes it look like it's for okay. Can I say something? I agree with this. I'm just thinking about my own home right now. There is a bottle of wine at my house right now. It is wrapped in tissue paper and it has like a really pretty thing on it. I got it for Christmas. I haven't opened it. It was wrapped in nice and stuff. I maybe wouldn't touch it. Okay. Yeah. I feel like. So you got us a really nice bottle of wine. Yeah. We haven't opened it yet because we're waiting for a special occasion, which I'm kind of like, fuck it. Let's just do it. But it is, it is wrapped in something. Yeah. And we have had someone, you know, watch our son and we were like, literally help yourself. Yeah. But, you know, we didn't come home to them having opened that. Right. So I don't know. Maybe it's also the type of people who know you too. Yeah. But I personally think you should not ask for money from that is tacky. That was a slip. It's just like kind of like, oh, I slipped up and I didn't tell them not to do that. I think it was like, oh, my bad. You're bad. Yeah. You just have to take the L. Yeah. You kind of got to take the L there. And it's like, all right. At least it wasn't $500 or something like 120 bucks. A lot of money sucks. But also, yeah, I don't know what you were paying him or if you were paying him. I think she should ask him what the flavor notes were. And if he really enjoyed it. Yeah. And if she would probably enjoy it as well. Yeah. Absolutely. Just come up. I would just be like, hey, I just want a one pager on this bottle. At least tell me what it's like. Yeah, that's my payment is describing the Barolo. Yeah. Describe it. What is a Barolo? Barolo. Isn't that an Italian wine? Am I crazy? It sounds Italian. I feel like I've had that before. I also love to put ice cubes in my wine. That's fine. What the fuck? Do whatever the fuck you want. Hey, my grandpa does that. Well, what kind of wine? Red or white? White. That's fine. Sometimes red. That's fine. Well, if it's not, you know what I love? Okay. You know what I love? I like putting ice in a full body red. Don't come at me. Listen, do whatever you want. Can do whatever you want. Okay. I will. No, do whatever you need to do. I just recently learned because at Epcot, I had ice wine. And I thought that meant like, oh, there's ice in the wine or whatever. It's like, no, it's because they press the grapes when they're frozen. And what was it? Was it less like very sweet? Yeah, it is. I don't like sweet wine. I don't even like orange wine. I still don't know wine that well. I really do. I do not like sweet wine at all, but I will fuck with a port. A port one. Yummy. Portuguese port one. I don't think I've ever. Comments that deserve wine. Someone said, well, first of all, the verdict was asshole. That they were the asshole. Yeah. They asking for money, just whatever. Comments, you're the asshole expensive and cheap bottles of of wine look the same to people who don't know wine. - Yeah. - Be more precise in your instructions for the person doing you a favor. He assumed that you only have cheap bottles of wine because you cavalierly said to help himself. This is tacky. Someone said you told him to help himself to whatever he did. Most people can't distinguish between a $15 and $120 bottle of wine and most people aren't going to read or receipt you left lying around either. You're the asshole, this one's on you. Lastly, someone said you're the asshole, you should just chalk this up to miscommunication. You said help yourself to anything in the kitchen. If you had told him prior, except for that bottle of wine I'm saving for my promotion, you could ask for full compensation. This is on you, swallow your ego and let this go, my dude. It'll be better for the friendship. - My dude. - Yeah, my dude was a girl. - It was, but she's, but she's my dude. - She, but he's a dude. She's a dude and we're all dude. - This red in her commenting is only says my dude. My dude, swallow your ego, my dude. - My dude. - My dude. - You gotta swallow your ego. - Well, on your ego, fun. - Do you think you could, like look at a bottle of wine and decipher its price range? - Here's, I was just gonna comment on that. The bottle of wine that looks the most boring and has like an old school label is the most expensive. - Interesting. - The one that's like fun, pops up color or like a drawn woman like by the beach. - That's a new dog on the cover. - It's gonna be the best. But I will say the most expensive wine looks very boring. - Yeah. - 'Cause it's the name, the name is all that. - It's a generational wine that has perfected what they do and they keep the label the same. - There's this one bottle and it's so good and it's chilled. It's a chilled red and I just. - Chilled reds are cool. - I just like that one. You'll just send me a picture of it. I will. I think you would love it and it's a good price. I'm sure I would. - I've only had, look, I've not drank much wine. I only started drinking wine at all last year but there's one bottle that I think is my favorite wine. And it's a nebbiolo. - Nebbiolas? - It's really good. - Of course it is. - 'Cause I love it and really fancy. - We wouldn't mean of course it is. 'Cause he loves really, really strong full body. Like almost like a dry leather type. Nebbiolo. - I've found out that anytime any food or anything is described by non-food adjectives like leathery, mineraly, woodsy. - Yeah, a little cigar smoke. So he, Nebbiola's like a very full body to tell you when and it's phenomenal. - Moving on from wine. - Show. - Our next story comes from Am I the Asshole? This was posted in September of 2022. Am I the asshole for kicking a server out of my wedding? - Ah. - Whoa. - What? - I a 25 year old woman and my husband, a 30 year old man, and I got married last Friday. We planned our dream wedding down to our dream catering company. The wedding was beautiful. After the pictures we headed to our cocktail hour and that's when I saw her. My guests were all told to wear dark colors so my husband and I stood out. I also asked my guests to wear minimal makeup. I had assumed that applied to the staff too. The server, 19ish female, had on clearly too much eyeliner. She also had diamond studs in her ears, a flashy ring, and one of those ugly nose studs. - Oh, oh my God. - The staff's uniform was a black long sleeve shirt, but on her it was too low cut and her pants were far too tight. It was super distracting. She was walking around serving drinks and talking to my guests. I asked another member of the staff to speak to their boss. When their boss came out, I pointed out the server and asked that she be dealt with 'cause she was super distracting. Their boss apologized and called the server back into the kitchen. Not even an hour later, the server was back out serving food for dinner. I called the boss over again and asked if the server could work in the back or go home. - No. - Her boss said they were short staff tonight so she would see what can be done. After a couple of hours of not seeing her, I saw the server again behind the bar. I called the boss out one last time and told her if the server didn't leave, I would be calling the cops. - Oh, oh, oh. - The boss finally relented and told the girl to go home. My husband and mother-in-law said I was acting crazy and I probably got a poor college kid fired for over nothing. My mother and maid of honor said it's my wedding so I can do as I please. It's my wedding and I don't want someone overshining me and the server should know she's at work and not dress up so much. I do feel kind of bad because she was pretty young. Am I the ass? - Yes, yes, you're absolutely an asshole and more. - God. - I want to know how you are in your normal life because this is bad behavior. - Probably bad all the time. - This is gonna sound really mean but I don't think you should get married. - Continue. - Yeah, I don't think you should get. - Go on. - I'm even shocked you had guests set your wedding. You're a bad person and I think you should not be with someone for a long time and I think it would be a bad idea for you to have children. - Go on. - Sorry. - Go on. - As Dean. - Well, this is okay. Like, you know that, you know that balcony scene? You know that balcony scene in succession when Tom goes and I think you're a bad person to have children with. That is me telling this person. I just don't think this person is well and it's going to permeate through every other thing in their life and you know what? It does make sense that the mother and the brides me was like, yeah, go off, do whatever you want because they're also fucking nuts. (laughing) - Hi, I will say. - All right. - That was so mean. I'm so sorry. - No. - You're probably a bad person. - That was pretty epic. - I will say, I am so done with people being like, it's my wedding, it's my day goes. Just because you're getting married, it does not give you the right to what it appears to be, to be your true self. Okay? It does not give you the right to be so unbelievably rude to other human beings. This is someone who's working your wedding. Like, also, it's clear that you have a control issue over some, you are literally punching down on another woman who's dressing what makes her feel good. - Yeah. - Are you a wedding? - You're a entire wedding, you're focused on one center. - Like, truly? - How insecure are you, a 19-year-old? - With diamond studs and a flashy ring? - Yeah. I'm like, you're 25, you're worried about a 19-year-old who's doing their job. - So do you think your husband is gonna be like, I do? - And also that, wait. - Your husband. - Yeah, I'm like, what do you think? Like, I'm just like-- - That is probably what you think. - It is very telling about where her head is at. - Insecurely. - And if I'm the fiance or the husband, I'd be like, dude. - I'd be like, red? - Red. - What? - This is how this person views everything around them. - She should not, Mary. - I do agree with you, 'cause there's a lot of the like, oh, it's our wedding, it's our day. But when someone's so focused on controlling how other people look and how their bodies and being like, all minimal makeup, do not outshine me, I'm like, I don't know, it's just, it gets to weird territory. I'm like, what? - You're wedding? - You're wedding. - Your day doesn't mean you dictate how other human beings are around you. - Yes. - Especially in the restaurant industry. Like, this woman gets to wear whatever the F she wants. - I also have feelings. - If we saw this girl in person, we'd be like, she'd be like, oh, she looks fine. - She looks like she's works for a catering. - Also. - She looks like she. - If she wore a low-cut shirt, girl, deal with it. - Yeah. - Like, I guarantee she's probably like this with her husband anywhere they go. - Yes, her husband probably hates her. - 'Cause if you think about it. (laughing) - This hot day from Olivia, it's just killing me. And she shouldn't have children. Like, oh, what? - Satan is waiting for her. - No, yes. - But the fact that the boss that she called out the boss multiple times and the boss just like sends her back out, it shows like, I'm like, bosses are all like tough on people, especially like I've heard catering companies and stuff. Like, that's not, you're not gonna have a boss who's like, oh yeah, do whatever. Like, they're probably taking that shit seriously. And he's recognized like, what this lady's complaining about. - He's like, we're short stuff. She's working. - She's working. - Also, imagine that 18 year old girl. She goes home and now she has a bad view on her body, on how she looks. Like, this is the biggest, this is such a bigger issue with young teenage girls, is there is the possibility that a man might find you attractive when you're in something that makes you feel good. And what bothers me so much is women also, just yes and these nasty toxic behaviors. Up going like, yes, see, she's evil by wearing something tight. And it's like, hey, if your man is gonna flirt with someone younger, he's gonna do it whether she's wearing that or not. - That's right. - That's your fucking problem. I'm so done putting this on younger women of our generation of just like, dude, why are we making them the villains? - Yeah, right. - And this is crazy. She's literally just doing her job. - She's doing her job. - She's a, and by the way, this woman who getting married, she's 25. Oh, boy. (laughing) - Go on. - I love how it's becoming like, things that aren't as big of a deal. It's like, and you're 25, how dare you. - And you're 25. - That's when you're like, what, frontal lobe is fully developed? - I think that's just when the study ended. - I hope this woman. - You're just keep getting more matured with age. - Hey, I hope this woman watches this. It's me. And you better see me. I wear tight clothes and low shirts and big old diamond earrings. Come, find me. - This is your biggest off now. - I will say to tell your guests. - To wear dark colors and minimal makeup. This girl does not get enough attention in her real life that she has to, what is with pride? - Or she gets tons of attention. but it's none of it's enough. - Oh yeah, none of it's enough. - It's just such a toxic view. - What things are almost kind of like, it's one of those situations where you said it earlier, of like, it gives people permission in their heads to be who they really are. - To be who they really are. - It's kind of like when someone's drunk, it's like, that's who they like-- - This isn't a bridesilist situation. This is who this person really is. - It's just like, yeah, all right. That's how you view people. That's your priorities. - So sad. - It is very sad. It's very lonely. - I'm like, this is a day of uniting with your partner, and yet people make weddings about anything, but they're partner. That's literally what a wedding is. - There's something really sad 'cause we've read stories, obviously, where guests wear white and stuff like that. And it's like, hey, there are certain, like, you hope your guests are respectful of you, but there is something very telling of like, it's my day and the main feature of my day is that everyone else needs to be smaller and minimized. I'm like, that's what's important to you. And that's so sad. - Easy, your friends. - Yeah, this is your community. - Yeah, that's gonna raise you up. - Don't you want on your day for everyone to feel good? - I will say, you were like, her family's calling her crazy, but it's her fiancee and her fiancee's mom is calling her crazy. - Oh, right. And so her mom and her mate have honored us. - Her mom and her mate have honored us. - You're right. - She has been, yes, and did her entire life. - I gotta say though, 'cause what did it say that her husband, who was it who was calling her crazy? - My husband and mother-in-law said I was acting crazy. - Yes. - If you're having a wedding and you're calling your wife crazy on the wedding day, why are you getting married? - Dude, you're cooked. - Dude, your wedding is fully cooked. Your marriage is done. - All that shit off. - Stopped. - God. - Chopped. - All right. - It's chopped. I honestly, you're gonna have to, this woman needs a lot of help. - Yeah. - And we're gonna bring Olivia in. - No, no, I help her. - No, you need help. I don't think you can have a happy marriage or life if this is how you are to the world and to yourself. You disrespect people and your family hates you. (laughing) - No, yeah, like your family that you're marrying into thinks you're crazy. - Yeah, so it's like, you know, you've been disrespected and everybody hates you and you shouldn't be wearing that. - It doesn't matter that it does. - Yeah. Sorry. - And your taste in movies is awful. - You didn't even write anything about that, but I just know. - I know, oh my God, your letterbox is shit. You don't even have one. (laughing) - Okay, Olivia, before we move on to more stories, are you certain this is the worst person we're gonna read about today? - I'm certain this is the worst person ever. And I see her coming. - Oh my God. - I hope we don't. I hope for her sake, we don't. We gotta read a few comments here. You're the asshole, but don't worry. I'm sure the catering team will get it right at your next wedding. - Oh, okay, Olivia, you are correct. People are coming for her. - Yes, your marriage is so fucked up. - Olivia made, Olivia probably made five accounts. - And-- - That's me. - Someone said, "You're the asshole, too bad. You didn't get to enjoy your wedding reception because you couldn't stop obsessing over a college age server." The things that you objected to in the server could have been fixed. She could have removed her jewelry. The boss could have given her a shirt that covered her better, but you didn't want it fixed. You chose to complain about her and not the offending items. This was entirely your choice to not enjoy yourself. Lastly, someone said, "Who spends so much energy on their wedding day because a server was wearing too much eyeliner and earrings? You're the asshole, you need therapy. This is not normal." - Oh, what was she thinking? - Damn. - She got roasted. - She always threatened to call the cops. - Oh, we never discussed the cops. - Oh, that is the close care ring. - Which is very telling, it's very telling behavior. - You gotta remember, girl, she is wearing tight clothes and I see a breast. - And it's coming out of Gary. - And there's diamond studs and a flashy ring. - Like this? - Jesus Christ. - I know. Okay, we can't rattle her up any, we can't. - No, I am good at all breast. - You. - We can't rattle up yet. We gotta keep it down, keep it down. We gotta keep it down. - We must move on. Let's see if anybody's worse than that. - I don't think so. I do. I don't think so. - It's always possible. Our next story comes from Am I the asshole posted in September of 2021? Good year. - How's my favorite year? - Am I the asshole for being at breaking point with my husband's made up language? (laughing) - Oh my God, pig Latin. (laughing) - My husband has always been a bit goofy, giving his own names to things and doing impressions. About 18 months ago, this started-- - This started pissing me off. - You, oh, yeah. - To be clear, you said the lady from the last story is the worst person we're gonna read about today. - Yeah. - About 18 months ago, this started to increase a lot. It's now a constant presence in our lives and I'm finding it difficult to live with. Examples, he has his own name for most retail outlets, professionals, organizations. Eat your greens is Walgreens. Sharts and gobbles is Barnes and Noble. He has about 30 to 40 everyday words that he insists on using in place of normal ones. Scuppers with a rising whistle at the end is yes. (laughing) Being with a descending whistle is no and Bagaiaia, good night. He constantly does weird sound impersonations, not like celebrities or characters, but a single noise that's a made up sound or something childish, like a fart from a children's TV show. He speaks random words like garbage or douchebag, willst burping or fart. (laughing) He has made up names for our friends, which he uses sometimes even under his breath when we're out with them. Pam and Will are pig and wig. I've just had enough. We got into bed the other night and I said good night and he said Bagaiaia. In the high pitched voice, he always does it in. I snapped and asked why he couldn't just speak to me normally and he just laughed and came right up close to my face and did it again. His whistling is constant. He speaks to our kid in this stupid language and I'm worried it's going to confuse normal language development because he changes the words so often. Our toddler could be about to hurt themselves and instead of saying no or come here, he'll say some ridiculous made up word or sound and then get annoyed when our kid doesn't know what he wants. He's normal in other respects, works in finance and is totally professional around his colleagues but different at home. I told him it needs to stop. I don't mind it occasionally or for fun but it's all the time and it's wearing me down. He got upset and said I couldn't take a joke and that I'm not fun anymore. It's true that I've become more irritable and noise averse since we had kids but I'm so worn out and over it and just want him to relate to me like an adult. Edit, I do not believe but I'm not health qualified that he displays any symptoms of Tourette's autism, neurological disorders, et cetera and hasn't ever done despite this. He is physically well by all measures. He is for sure not having a stroke or significant physical health event. Yes, I can see this could be a reaction to stress. For those asking why I married him, he did not do this to this extent before we had kids. Occasionally, yes, with the occasional name or words but not this regular. He is amazing in many ways but this one thing is now too much for me. I don't feel it's right to discount him or throw out the whole marriage because of it but it does need to change. He will not go to therapy. We have discussed it calmly previously. He did not take me seriously or make changes. He sees this as funny and just a joke. I agree that we need to talk more. Yes, it can be funny occasionally. I'm not trying to spoil his fun. I also need an adult partner at times and for him to stop when not appropriate. Bing, Bing, Bing. Well, got got got got got got got got. Faga ya ya. Faga ya ya. Faga ya ya. Faga ya ya. Scuppers, Bing. I hate this. Okay, okay. Here's what I think is happening. Faga ya ya. I think when a man becomes a dad sometimes and a woman, they turn into something else, like a creature of sorts. And I think they be, I think they get into this like childlike place. I think not a lot of people talk about men after having kids. Like women talk about postpartum, not enough. But like men also go through a version of postpartum and maybe something has to come a silly little guy. And he's just in order to cope. He's just like, Bing, Bing, Bing. I, okay. He became crazy frog. So I, I have a made up language too. Chinese, Mandarin is, Mandarin is not made up. I'm like, by the way, this is made up. I'm like, I don't think it's made up. I have a made up language, Nihal Ma. Yeah, no, that's my made up language. Yeah, for sure. For sure. Something has snapped in you. Something has snapped. I do think that having children something triggers a man to become more like a child. Not always, but yes, but I think maybe, maybe they start subconsciously thinking about when they were a child and how they were. Yeah, I've heard this before. Look at us professionally coming at this. I heard it's just like he's giving her the egg. Try to figure out big time. He needs, he also should go to therapy because I think there's underline. Well, it's interesting that could he say no? She said, he said, he said, he will not go to therapy. I think the issue about all of this is just that he doesn't do this stuff around his friends. She's saying or at work in other situations. He does it around her. She has asked him to stop and he just keeps saying it's just a joke. It just sounds like he's being disrespectful of her. Yeah, well, no matter how silly the circumstances are, [BLANK_AUDIO] >> He clearly is not, he's a financial bro, his financial bro's would never accept this probably. He clearly is not getting a creative outlet that he needs. He needs to go fucking- >> Take a clown workshop. >> He does need to do clowning. >> He does, he has, he's having a creative- >> This guy needs to be an improviser. >> Yeah. >> No, sometimes I feel like if I were in a job like this, and I can't be crazy in wild, this might happen. >> Yeah. >> Do you? >> Imagine I was a financial person, and I was like walking over to people's desk and I was like, hey y'all, like I would go home and be like, wet for dinner, man. >> Exactly, exactly. >> Like I would lose my shirt. >> His calling, he's not doing what he actually enjoys. >> But the kid's situation, him speaking to the kids in another language, that was bothering me so much. The real issue I think here is that he's speaking to their kids in a made up language, which they're in a development phase, which would frustrate me because those aren't real words that they can use. >> And the kids are confused. They do very confused. >> And they're very confused. >> And then it's said he will say, instead of saying no, he'll say his made up stuff, and then get frustrated when the kids don't respond to it. >> Yes. >> It's weird. >> What's going on? >> We don't know what pig and weak means. >> Look, I'm not a psycho. >> Will be Pam and Will. >> Yeah, Pam and Will. Pig and wig. I'm obviously not a psychologist by any means. I have no expertise in it, but I do feel like what it seems to be happening is this guy, there's something going on, and this is a weird way that it's coming out of him, and he's going, I don't need therapy. I'm fine. It's like, no, I don't think you are. >> No, something's occurring. >> Something's going on inside your head. >> Yes. >> I don't know what it is, but- >> His kids are bringing out some side that was suppressed. >> Yeah. >> Especially because he's downplaying it when he's being, like, he is not recognizing what's coming up. >> It's like you're not fun anymore. >> Yeah. >> I understand why comments and stuff are going, oh, is there Tourette's or Autism or something, because it's displaying, like, oh, there's something neurological maybe happening. And I think maybe, but it's maybe more like- >> Maybe it's like a trauma response. >> I know, it can be. Get your brain scanned. >> He really should go because I feel like someone, this is an interesting behavior that's happening. There is also the element of, like, she's like, this is wearing me down. There is also the element, the possibility that he's, this is a form of just pure, like, manipulation and just- >> It's possible. We don't know what these people are at all. >> Doing this to berate her because he sees how much it affects her so far. >> That's so mean. >> People do mean shit. I don't know. I'm saying we don't know these people. These are all possibilities. >> This is still not as bad as wedding woman. >> Okay. >> I do agree with you. I agree with you. >> The verdict is not the asshole. She's doing nothing wrong. >> Yeah. >> Comments. Is this a real post? If it is, you got problems, OP. Not the asshole. If he said I wish I was joking, I sometimes wonder if lockdown broke something in his brain. Someone said not the asshole. I do this kind of stuff a lot. Mostly the one about imitating stuff from shows. I quote random TikToks all the time, make weird noises to myself, et cetera. But I'm more than capable of cutting it out if I have to. I used to say my guy all the time until it became a habit. I don't know about that one, my guy, all right, my guy. That one specifically drove my ex up the wall and when he told me he hated it, I made a concentrated effort to stop saying it. The fact he doesn't do this around other people shows he's more than capable of knocking it off when required. And that he's aware, at least on some level, that he's doing it. The only thing I can suggest, given that your husband doesn't seem receptive to an adult conversation, is that you refuse to engage with him unless he speaks properly. Like if he says scuppers or whatever it was, just at confused and say, sorry, was that a yes or no? Basically don't react to these weird made up things he's saying and show him you're not going to play ball any. Yeah. Oh, he said, thanks. Yes, I think this is a plan. It's been going on for so long now that I don't often have to ask for a translation anymore. So I tend to still reply to his nonsense. I'm going to stop answering unless he speaks normally. Scuppers. Scuppers. Do you want lobster for dinner? Scuppers. Scuppers. Okay. I am laughing. It is funny. Also, my guy is not the same as a fall made up man. And I was saying, dude, a lot and man, my girlfriend was at me. Someone said no one's the asshole. Have you spoken to him directly about the fact you've noticed he's doing this more often? Is it possible he's falling into this silly type of thing to cope with other stresses? Yes. I completely understand being annoyed by it, but if the frequency has increased, there is certainly a reason for it. Maybe giving him the opportunity to open up about this in conversation as opposed to a response to use snapping will shed some light and make things easier for everyone involved. Well, he said, yes, loads of times. A few months ago, we had a serious but calm discussion about it. And I told him it was too much and I couldn't take it all the time. He said he didn't notice he was doing it, so I started pointing it out. And he got fed up and told me I was being way too picky. I just can't take it anymore. I'm sick of reminding him to not be so gross burping and making weird noises when we're having dinner and the high pitch sounds make me want to claw my eyes out. And even does it willst I'm trying to settle our toddler for bed, which just gets him all hyperactive and hard to settle. I'm sorry. The toddler's going to bet she's like, goodnight, so he's like garbage, whatever he said. Scumper. No, he says garbage when he burps, right? Yeah. Garbage. Garbage. This is so all right, we've come back around. He's hilarious. No. He's not. There's something going on in, and I will lose my literal mind. Yes. I was lose my mind. I think this person needs help, professional help. Yes. Yeah, probably. Update. Oh my god. Thank God. Oh my god. Oh my god. It's been several months since I posted this, so thought I'd come back to update as requested. He eventually agreed to get checked out, confirmed neuro-typical, and no other health concerns. You were referred for marriage counseling, and he wouldn't go. I ended it, and I'm slowly rebuilding my life. Honestly, this post was just the tip of the iceberg, and I'm exhausted, but glad to be out. He also ended up really insulting our close friends, and it all spiraled into complete hellfire. So they got, I'm sorry. Anyway, she's saying this was just the tip of the iceberg, there was, okay, so this is the Reddit thing that happens a lot, where someone writes in, and they go, they go, oh, my husband's making silly noises, and then they update, and they go, oh, by the way, he also tried to murder me. It's like, yeah, okay. So the silly noises were not the problem. Oh, because they didn't want to, they don't want to fully admit the big, scary thing. Well, they're kind of like, yeah, they're kind of processing like, yeah, he, he makes silly noises, and they're crazy, and in the back of the head, they're like, he tried to kill me, though. Yeah, he cheated on me. Um, wait, so they're just divorced. They're divorced. And so the kid is going to go to dad's house, and it's going to be all made up language for a skip. It'll be interesting if he continues doing it. He will. I'm surprised he was willing to go to a doctor to get checked out, and they're like, yeah, he's not. Because he, he probably knows that things, yeah, yeah, wow. Maybe, maybe he did it, so she would divorce him, and, and it was her decision, like, like, like a, like a gone girl type of thing. Yeah. This is gone girl. This is gone girl. Shane's not buying it. He doesn't like it. I just. But guy, yeah, girl. No, but it's also funny when it's like, oh, why do you guys get a divorce? Well, um, I was like saying all these, I've made a language, and that's, that's crazy. Garbage. Damn. Yeah. Still not, still not, still not, uh, a wild lady, no, ladies the worst. But then, but then this, this woman, in her future, dates or husbands or partners, they say one little quirky thing, she's like, she's like, stop. He's like, gotcha. She's like, stop. He's like the slippery slope. She's like, no, no, stop it. He's like, oh, yeah, yeah, oh, yeah. One of them burps, she pulls out a gun, she's like, better fucking enough, enough, enough, enough. She keeps attracting these people. Looney tunes. Yeah. It's, she's just with a cartoon. Wow. Okay. Okay. Our next story comes from relationship advice. This was posted on October of 2025. I hurt my friend's girlfriend's feelings by saying his ex was a better cook. How do I make her feel better? All right. So O.P. is a 32 year old man. His friend is a 26 year old man and his friend's girlfriend is a 28 year old woman. Once again, I hurt my friend's girlfriend's feelings by saying his ex was a better cook. It's just facts. Yeah. It's just how it is sometimes. Yeah. I've only started dating this new girl. I would say it's been about six months since they started dating. One thing that I noticed is he's cooking way more than he did in his previous relationship. This is the first relationship since he and his ex broke up for good. And one thing about his ex, she could cook. She made by far the best pork chop I have ever tasted. But everything she made, she could do some crazy work in that kitchen. My wife is more of a baker but when they would both team up where she cooks and my wife would bake. It was like shack and Kobe. Now unfortunately my friends ex cheated on him but I was able to convince him to try to make it work. Because I'm pork chop. But then she yeah. Pork chop. Holy shit. But I convinced him to try to make it work but then she cheated again and there was no convincing it. It sucks because I missed those pork chops. What the hell. Today he had my wife and I over for you. and surprisingly, his new girlfriend was cooking. In his new relationship, he's been doing the majority of the cooking. Her cooking was average. He is good, but his ex was great. So after we ate, she said, "Be honest, how was it?" Oh, no. -Livia is losing it right now. -That's so funny. It's so funny! They were like shackled gobies, crazy. -But those pork chops, so she cheated on me five times. -She cheated on your best friend. You go, "You gotta go back." -You gotta go back to them. And invite me over the night she comes back. OK, so this new girl asked about the cooking. She goes, "Be honest, how was it?" -Oh, no. -So my wife and I were honest. Like she asked and said it was average. We talked about how his ex was the most amazing cook ever and gave her some tips. My wife said, "If we ranked her cooking, it would be my friend's ex, herself, me, my friend, and then his current girlfriend, I disagreed." -What the hell is happening? -What? When they said be honest, it's not one of those situations where you're going to need to be honest. -Hey, OK, how is this food that I just cooked for you just now? -And which? -Be honest. -Oh, well, his ex, who's hot, by the way. -Yeah, she's very hot. Big tips than you, by the way. Yours are an A? -Yeah, her cooking was the best. She was the Kobe of cooking. -My wife is a shack of baking. -She's like, "I have to do about how this plate of food rests." -Nice ass. -Let's be honest. -Sorry. -My ranking is my friend's ex, my friend, my wife, my friend's current girlfriend, and then me. But I do think there's room for debate after the first two to be honest. But I don't think it's close. My friend's ex by a wide margin. Then my friend himself, you can play with the other order somewhat after that. Then we talked about how combining my friend's ex's cooking with her baking was an unstoppable force, LOL. Anyway, her feelings were really her. -Yeah! -Yeah! And my friend made us leave. My wife and I are confused because she asked for honesty and we were giving her feedback. Now I see we should have lied, but don't ask people to be honest and then get mad at honesty. But still, I do want to make it up to her. Any ideas welcome. -Cook some pork chops. -I'll take long to reply because I'm at work, but Will, when I can, thank you. She didn't ask for a ranking. -Dude, no, what if she did ask for a ranking? -She said, "Bee, how was the food?" Beyond it. -Could you imagine it? -And they said, "Okay, so if I have to rank. If I have to rank it." -They're just sitting there going like, "Well, let's rank them." Well, of course, the hot, hot, hot ex with a big ass. -I might swoop in in front of them and they go, "Well, all right, I'm for a ranking." -Yeah. -Can I go up? -His ex. -Okay, can I just say, "Yes, that is really mean to say to a new girlfriend entering their friend group." However, I think I appreciate this type of honesty. -Yeah, I got it. -You know, it's like. -I can appreciate this type of honesty. If it's welcomed by all in the room and expected, but she was not asking for that. -No. -She was asking for feedback. It's not like, "Okay, if we go into an audition." And you go, "Yeah, how's the street?" It's like, "Well, if I had to rank all of the actors today." -I would love that. I would actually appreciate that. -I'd be like, "Yeah, how can I do better would be what I do with the core." -I do agree with. -No, if you were someone. -Yeah, I want that. -Yeah, tell me the truth. -There is a world where being able to handle that type of honesty is very freeing. -Yes. -But in this situation, she cooked something as she asked for feedback and they went into talking, "Don't bring up someone's ex. Don't ever bring someone's ex." -First of all, average, not a fun word. -Not a fun word. -Not a fun word. -Nobody likes mid or average. -It's crazy how average means, "Oh, it's the most common, but it's bad." -Also, what's he. -It's almost worse to say that. -She put down the food and go, "Okay, what do you guys think? Be honest, like a. It's chopped up hot dogs." -Well, okay, here's the thing. What if. -I did look crazy. -What if the ex is Bobby Flay? Or Gordon Ramsay? -True. -He's married. -Well, you know, or Martha Stewart. -Wow, his ex is Martha Stewart. -Do you know what I mean? Do you know what I mean? -No, she was good at pork chops. -It's Aina Garden, you know? -She's, okay, she's married, and her and Jeffrey have a very solid relationship. -No, I'm saying like, what if it was like the best? -No, I know. -Cook. -Like, why is this friend convincing the friend so hard, even after she cheated to get back? These pork chops must be the greatest. -These friends got to let this ex go. -What if they just prefer the ex? -Oh, peas need. It seems like that's what they want. -They should just be friends with the ex so they can keep eating her pork chops. -They cared about the pork chops so much. -Oh, yeah, what they need is they just need to get the recipe. -Yeah. -And get better at cooking it. -Yeah, but it sounds like the way she makes it. -Pork chops are not easy. -Pork chops are not easy, I think. -That's an advanced recipe. -You have to cook with love. -Them saying it was not that great is not the problem. It's that they brought up the ex. -They compared to the ex. -They could have said, I thought it was dog shit. That's fine. -Yeah. -I think that's fine. -Shane, no. -She said, give me honest feedback, and they could say, I actually hated that so much. But what are you saying? -But they really fucked up by bringing up his ex. That's where I think they're really the asshole. -If someone said my food was dog shit. -I would never say that to someone. -I would never. -I would not say that. -Oh, okay. -If you hated it, would you say you liked it? -I'm also. Oh, here's, okay. Let me be completely honest here. I rarely hate food. Like, I have. -Oh, no. So you're just like, you just shovel it in. -I'm saying. -So you have no taste. -I'm never going to be like, I hate it. If I was someone I trusted and we had a good relationship where I know I could be honest. I said, how was it? I would maybe be like, I think it maybe needs more of this or like. -Yes, yeah, yeah. -I would offer like how I think it could get there. But I'm saying that I don't think they're necessarily assholes for whatever they said when someone goes, "Be honest." How do you like it? And they go, "I hated it." But where I think their assholes is, don't rank her with his ex. -Don't bring up the ex. I think you're an asshole if you bring up someone's ex. -I have a conspiracy theory. I have a conspiracy theory. -Oh, there you go. -Go on. -Ex, girlfriend, told them to say that. -You think it's like a sabbatops? -Yes. -Give you an unlimited supply of pork chops for one month. -Yes. -They go, "Oh, actually, they were going over for dinner." And she goes, "You know what? You tell her, you tell her that my food is better." -You want to pork chop on your pillow tonight? -Yeah. -You go tell them. -Yes. -And I want you to say average. -That's my conspiracy theory. -I love that. -Is there an update on what her plan was? -We don't have an update on this, but we do have comments. -Comments. You wanted your friend to stay with a cheating piece of shit so you could occasionally have pork chops. -Damn! -You're a shitty person in general. I'd unfriend you in a heartbeat. -I love that he's asking for suggestions. And people are just asking for excuses. -Oh, he said that's not why I wanted them to stay together. I thought she was genuinely remorseful, and I could tell he really loved her. The breakup devastated him, and he didn't date for a while after that. Someone said she didn't ask how her food compared to his ex. She asked how her food was. If you can't figure out where you went wrong, I wouldn't be expecting an invite back. Someone said so the girlfriend asked for feedback, and you compared her to a cheating ex. Why? Constructive feedback can be, it was a bit dry, or I prefer a bit more flavor. But a direct comparison to another person, much less someone like the ex isn't helpful or kind. You need to apologize profusely, and vow to never mention the ex again. -Usely? -You sound like you're in love with the ex, or at least her cooking, to try to push her onto your BFF and his ex in such a cruel fashion. She asked how the food was, not a comparison between everyone sitting in the room. Mentioning the ex wasn't needed. And why did you try to convince him to take back a cheater? Because you missed those pork chops? Seriously, did you American pie those pork chops? -That would be so hard. -It would be really tough. -How would you get it even in there? -Oh, people responded that saying, "When I told him to take her back, it had nothing to do with the pork chops. I could tell that he really loved her, and she illustrated to my wife and I that she was serious about changing and rebuilding his trust." -All right. -No one actually gave him suggestions on how to- -Nobody was, I don't know. -Well, someone said apologize profusely. -The pork chops? -This person likes to make comparisons, Jack and Kobe in the kitchen. -Which is hilarious. -Yes, so I think this is their personality. -If he said that, who's Jack and that? -Who's Jack? -His wife, the baker. -The baker is Jack and Kobe is the pork chop woman? -Yes. -Yes, yeah. I would say that's because pork chops that requires more ac- No, I would say a baker requires more accuracy and stuff, so maybe that's Kobe. Whereas a cook is a more general like a book like, you know, that's the main event like that. -I'm enjoying this. -Well, Kobe is also the main event. -They're both the main event. That's why they were so much competition between them. -For sure. -With Jack, it was an unstoppable force. Kobe could hit threes like nobody's business. -So I think he's the pork chops. -What are you going to do? -Because you have to double triple-team Jack. -Do you're saying Jack is the pork chop? -You have to triple-team his wife. -Wait, wait, wait, wait. -No, he's the dog triple-team. -Well, go out there. -Well, pork chops. -Shane, you're talking about something completely different. -It will give you the reality. It's what you have to do. -If you want a triple-team, the pork chop woman, do it. No. [ Laughter ] Like, if that's your goal here. [ Laughter ] -Oh, my God. -My whole point to come on red is stories just a roast thing. -Yeah. -It's easy. -If they said the shack and Kobe thing to this current girlfriend, there's no going back. You can't compare someone's ex to Kobe. -I would have laughed. I would have been like, "What the hell?" -What is going on? -No, for sure. -I kind of want to get to know this person. -I don't think you. But, Amanda, you are someone who I think nothing's gonna. Like, you can handle this shit. -Oh, in garlic, when we eat our food, I'm like, "What did you put in this?" [ Laughter ] I'm like, "Oh, no. Too much of this." And he's like, "Yeah, you're right." -Yeah, same. When you're in, like, a long relationship, holy shit. -By the way, I'm an amazing cook. - You are an amazing. - I'm an amazing cook. - You are. - But like if I'm doing something like my partner would be like, oh yeah, this feels little too. - I will say though, the better of a cook you are, the less offended you are by notes. 'Cause you guys are both, you know, a lot about cooking and your husband knows so much about cooking. I feel like people who know a lot about cooking, they're actually eager for feedback 'cause it is a constant experiment. - Yeah. - But if you're not that much of a cook, it's very much like, oh, it's a big undertaking, you're taking on and you wanna know that you've pleased your guests. - Yes. - So that's tough. - It's tough. - But don't compare someone to their ex. - No, or Shack or Kobe. I mean, that sounds fun, but yeah. - But we still also clarify, is your wife the baker Kobe? Or is she Shack? - I need to know which one is Kobe. - We will, yeah, we ask them. - I mean, if I'm them, you gotta apologize. You have to apologize. What profusely means, I don't know. My advice to OP is have your Shack wife bake something awesome, come over and say, hey, how are these? - Be honest. - And then she'd be like. - And then let her do whatever the fuck she wants to do. - It's probably amazing. - Yeah. - Here's the thing, that's great. - Everybody offers something different. So it's like, yeah, the ex was a great cook. This Duke Kroen girlfriend probably is great. - Won't cheat on him. - Won't cheat on him, and that's better. - Yeah, and they can order out. - It's like, hey. - Look, god damn, those pork chops though. - I really want these pork chops. - Yeah, pork chops are really good. - I don't need pork. - And to be clear, the woman is still the worst. - The woman is still the worst. - The bride is the worst. - The bride is still the worst person. - Diamond studs. - Okay. - Plashy ring. - Yeah. - Our final story comes from "Am I the Asshole?" It was posted in February of this year. "Am I the Asshole for confronting my girl?" When I realized she took credit for something she didn't really do. - So a couple days ago, my girl and I were celebrating, and she told me she made me chocolates as a gift. She was super excited about it, saying she spent hours on them. She works a little waitress job, so she doesn't have a ton of money. - That's a crazy thing to say. - Oh, sorry. - My girl, she works a tiny little waitress job. - What the hell? - I have not handled this. - So she doesn't have a ton of money, so I didn't mind her cheaping out a bit compared to what I got. I thought it was sweet that she tried. I didn't even know she knew how to make sweets and stuff because she always says she can barely cook. She's not Kobe in the kitchen. Anyway, anyway, I asked her how she learned how to make it, and it turns out she just melted pre-made chocolate and poured it into molds. She didn't even make any of the fillings herself either. She got store-bought caramel and fruit spread and stuff. Literally all of it was pre-made. She barely put any effort at all, and then she was all proud of herself. Usually I try to let things go because she's so sensitive to criticism, but it just really irritated me that she tricked me like that. So I called her out online about it. She got upset and said she did make them because she put in so much effort. Halfway through arguing with me about if it's okay to lie to me or not, she just starts texting someone and said she doesn't want to argue anymore. She ended up getting her sister to come pick her up and she's been hanging out with her instead of me for the past two days. Her sister called me a dick on her way out too, which kind of makes me think my girl lied to her also about making them otherwise, I don't know why she'd be mad at me. At first, I was really sure that I was right, but maybe I need to be more forgiving of it. Like at the end of the day, I know she's not a great cook, so maybe I should have expected it not to actually be from scratch. She's usually really sweet and text me a lot, but she hasn't been talking to me much the past couple days. So I'm starting to feel like maybe I overreacted. Edit for clarity. You guys are really upset about the way I talk and just wanted to address it. She knows I call her my girl. She calls me her dude. She calls it a little waitress job too because it's basically just a side game. How I talk is not really the problem at all and I think it's strange you all are so focused on it. Anyway, some others said my age and what I got her matters, so I'm 32 and I got her some old figurines she collects. Also, just to clarify, you guys seem to think she put a lot more effort into this than it sounded like she did from her explanation. I've seen people talking about thermometers and how hard it is to make chocolate melt, but she literally only used the microwave to melt it and she doesn't even own a kitchen thermometer, so I doubt she used one. Maybe everyone just isn't understanding when I say she's got really little experience cooking and didn't seem to put much effort into these. She literally just melted it in the microwave, poured it into molds and then put stuff she bought inside of it. That doesn't even sound like what you guys are saying homemade chocolates are done like. Some people have said I should make my own to see how hard it is and I think I might because you're all describing actually sounds hard unlike what she did with the microwave and everything. - Okay, my little dude, I'm so sorry. I don't think you deserve to be in a relationship. - Am I a little dude? - No. - Because your little girl, little waitress job, she's gonna have a wave at her time not making you goddamn anything. - Exactly. - This man does not want this little girl. This man does not want his girl to succeed at all. He consistently, I think he said it like seven times that she didn't put any effort into it. - You're a little man, okay? You're a tiny, tiny little man with a very, very average, below average brain. And brain, okay, get him. - And you know what, I would love to do to this person? - Yeah, get him. - I would love to go inside your house. - Oh, okay. - Take away everything. - Okay, okay, so you're robbing him. - I wanna take away your stove. - Oh, that's gonna be good. - Oh, you're interesting. A very interesting theme. - I'm gonna move your ass out of your house. - Oh, yes. - And then you're gonna go in your house, everything's gone. - Yeah, take the shoes and the stove for sure. - No, no, everything. I'm saying everything. - Oh, everything, yeah. - No, no, I'm gonna get it. - But you're gonna start with the stove. - No, yeah. - I wanna take everything out of your life. - Yeah, stove first. - So you're just an empty, little, tiny, little man. - Yeah. - God, and you know what, I'm gonna, I hope you never get married. - Okay, yeah, bring it around. - No, I literally hope you never get married. - Okay, yeah, get him. - So stove first and then deserve to be left. - Yeah. - I'm gonna be back here, but you get him. - Yeah, you get him. No, I'll be here. I'm right, I'm here. Honestly, this little dude, man. And I will say, I was when he was talking about her, I was gonna be like, so just the way you're talking about her, it shows that you don't have any respect for her. So then he said, edit. And as he's trying to say, hey guys, this is our thing, he's again, disrespecting her even double time in the edit. I fucking hate this person. - Yeah. - Yeah, but you said the other lady's worse. - Oh, yeah. Olivia. - That she was the worst of the- - Olivia. - They're both equally the same. - No, you got it, you can. - I'm trying to think now. - Sculppers. - Sculppers, this is making the scuppers look like freaking- - This is making the scuppers look like Bing, you know? - Yeah. - Yeah. - To be clear, she made chocolates. - What's the definition of making it? - I don't really care how people make chocolates. Like, I'm like, you made me chocolate. - She put it in a bowl and filled it with stuff. - That sounds hard. - I was like, she gave you, she spent her time. She spent her time- - He's mad about the process in which she melted chocolate. - He failed. - He should be so happy that anything, even she went to buy a Russell Stovers from CBS. And that is enough. - Honestly, that shit's good though. You're upset by chocolate? Who's ever upset when they see chocolate? - Yeah, no, he clearly has a complete, a very specific take on who his partner is and should be. And he's judging her from the get-go. He's like, he's like, she has no experience. But really, she does it, she has a little waitress job and probably no money. But really, she spent all of her time off. She probably works all the time. She spent her time off getting all the ingredients and making it. - Well, you're at home masturbating to some weird, weird stuff. 'Cause you're weirdo. - The vertical asshole comments, dude, my girlfriend knows how you feel. For Valentine's Day, I made her a prime rib roast with garlic mash and baby carrots. The problem is I didn't raise the cow, butcher it, and then prepare the roast. Instead, I bought it from the store and cooked it. And that's not all. I didn't grow the potatoes, the garlic or the carrots. She got mad that I bought them too and don't get me started about the dishes. Those came from IKEA. All I did was spend two hours prepping, cooking, and serving, and cleaning. What a knob I am. You're the asshole, man. So I said, you're the asshole. - Oh, fun, what a fun guy. - Someone said, you're the asshole and she works a little waitress job was all I needed to hear. Someone said, you're the asshole. That's literally how you make homemade chocolate. I was expecting you to say someone else had melted the chocolates and poured it. This gift would have taken at minimum an hour for her to make. You owe her a huge apology. Update. - Yes, yes, yes. - All right, so the OP post a picture of the chocolates this girlfriend made on the subreddit chocolate, claiming that he made the chocolates for her to get an unbiased opinion. Okay. Put together. - What? - Put together, so he- - What a manipulative weirdo. - You're posted on chocolates, a subreddit. Saying, cool. - Put together chocolates for my girl. Do they look okay? And they look fantastic. - Wait, wait, wait, oh my god, they're like so hot. - And there's white chocolate, there's white chocolate and regular chocolate. Holy shit. - What do you expect? - They look like chocolate. - Have you seen a fucking, sorry. Have you seen a chocolate in your life? (laughing) - That's how they look like. - White chocolate. - White chocolate? - Comments on that, man, why do I have to run into you twice in one day? For the record, if you had been supportive and complimentary toward your girlfriend's efforts, she might have worked up the confidence eventually to try making them from scratch. Little steps are important. I doubt she'll ever try making chocolate again now. So what else to do? What the fuck is this? You're not making it any better. I love that people fall. They're like, we followed you to the chocolate land. (laughing) - Oh my God, this little dude is in chocolate land. Let's get him. - You think you can hoodwink us on Reddit? My fedora's on so tight, my head, her face. (laughing) - You're not gonna escape me. - Watch out little dude, my headache and eye are coming for you. - Update number two. - Shut up. - A lot of you guys were so dramatic. I really couldn't take most of the comments seriously. I still think homemade chocolates implies that every part is homemade. - Oh my God. - But clearly most people just say homemade, imprecisely, so I think it's not really her fault that she used that word in this situation. - Oh my God. - I decided to go ahead and apologize since it's clear she didn't lie since she didn't mislead me on purpose. I also chose not to make chocolates myself because I don't care to be in the kitchen much. - I hate it. - Oh, oh, oh. - I thought if I posted a pic of the ones she made and asked her feedback from people who actually know what they're talking about, I could get a better idea of if she actually did them right or not and how hard that might be without having to try myself. Like I said before, she doesn't even own a thermometer. So all the people saying she tempered it right based on one comment where I talk about them being crunchy were probably wrong in my opinion. The problem is that some of you are weirdos who follow people to other subs. At first people were complimenting her chocolates. So I was thinking maybe I really do need to apologize for thinking she put in no effort. But then someone posted a link and a flood of people showed up to insult them just because I said I made them. There were a lot of comments saying how it's obvious no effort was put in. They looked terrible, et cetera. But I can't trust those since they came from a poisoned well so to speak. I decided to just not mention that point to her since I couldn't get a clear answer on if they actually turned out well according to people who actually know about chocolate. So I texted her to ask if we could talk it over and she agreed because of how dramatic the commenters were, I did start to get a little nervous so I decided to go kind of over the top with the apology. Took her on a date to a little arts and crafts place. She let her go and I got her some food. She also apologized for running off to her sister's place and said she's gonna take a little break from her for a while because apparently she said some pretty messed up things about me that upset her. I guess her sister thought she was gonna dump me so she assumed my girl would laugh along with her when she made some bigoted comments instead of few other things that really hurt my girl's feelings. Which is great in my opinion. I always got the feeling her sister never liked me and I guess I know it's now it's clear why. Anyway, I'm just glad she came home and everything settled down. Sorry to all you people hoping she'd freak out and throw away 10 years over something as silly as Candie's LOL. She may have a history with lying as I mentioned in the comments but she's definitely a lot more mature than you people. - I can't. - Okay, I can't. - I just went to chocolate land and I wish I never went there. I literally can't with this little dude. - There's a subreddit for everything. - This little one more goddamn hot. - It's so condescending. A little arts and crafts. Like you stupid little arts and crafts. - You are so belittling. And you are just so yes. And you have no. - The little little. - Littlely. - You have no self confidence or like you're not, you know what, if I had a rank this with this person. - And then that other guy's X. - This person is worse. - Do you think this guy's worse than the bride? - Yes. - I think they're completely different. - I think this person is worse because this person will not change. And he's like, you guys are weirdos for following each other subreddit. I'm like, you're the weirdo who did that? - When and how is she ever going to ever make anything again for this man? Or sorry, this little dude. - Yeah. - How is this, how are they gonna make little things together ever again? - You know what, I think she should get, you know what, maybe this will boost her confidence in learning how to make, she'll be an incredible chocolate tier. And she- - She needs to move to Switzerland to learn how to make chocolate. - I guarantee she was like, oh, I'll just make some fun chocolates for February. That's it. She probably doesn't even, but he just, I think it's even bigger than her making these chocolates. He just literally does not respect her and doesn't see, doesn't see this like growth. How can they even grow together? - Yeah. - Like what if she makes a big decision? And he's just like, I can't, I really can't. - Hey, man, I hate you. - This little dude. - I don't know you, I hate you. - I hate you, dude. - He doesn't seem like he's actually sorry about that. - He apologized after Reddit people. - Yes. - He needed people from Reddit to be like, yeah, those actually look good. And then he'll be like, oh, damn, I guess I need to apologize. People who you don't even know, that's the worst part. - But it doesn't seem like he's apologizing 'cause he feels sorry and like that- - He wants her back. He wants her to teach you. - He's just, I'm apologizing so that I'm smoothing things over. It which is so shitty. - I feel so disappointed in people. - Yeah. - Yeah. - How are you like this? Like, why don't you wanna be a better kinder partner? - They weren't given the tools. If like a lot of people were just, they weren't given the right tools in their toolkit to work through all of this stuff that has thrown at them. But I still think this little dude is a little fucking asshole. - Yeah, for sure. - Like I don't appreciate this at all. - Yeah. - Me neither. - And I wish that she would leave him. - Me too. - Yeah. - But I will say, the bride still worse. - Still bad. - That was pretty rough. - I'm sorry, still worse. - Yeah, pretty rough. These stories make me go, wow, I'm so glad we have each other. - Oh yeah. - Do you know what I mean? - Yeah. - I won't be making chocolates for you guys. But like I would love to try. Honestly, could you imagine she's like, and this one is a white chocolate, it's a rose. And then this one is a star, but it looks like a starfish. And he's like, he's like, no, not to her. To the fucking chocolate. He's like, rose the chocolate. Like, did he try first? - Did you microwave this chocolate? - Did he try it first? - Yeah, was it not delicious? - It's too bad Shaq's not gotten into cooking 'cause he can make Shaqilo meals. - Oh. - How long were you thinking about that? - Okay. - All right. - Since we were filming "Splosh" about this one. - Wow. - Wow. - I was hoping Shaq could come up. - I have like a list of puns. - Wow. - In case Shaq gets brought up. - I can't. - Shaqilo meal. Here's what I learned from all these stories is have Olivia as your bodyguard. - Holy shit. - You will be fine. - She'll take your stove and your stove. - Reminder never to piss off Olivia. - No, never piss me off. - Yeah, it's true. - No, it's true. - I got like, I'm so nice, but I can also be so mean. - Yeah, got you. - No, you don't hold back. - No, I love it. - Anyways, thank you both for joining me today. - Thank you. - Anytime, I feel really angry. - I know. - I know, I wish me an aura rings. - Oh my God. - What is your app? - Shaq gets angry. - Shaq gets is your aura ring. - Yeah, yeah. - I could, yeah, it lists your stats and stuff like your stress level, whatever. - That's cool. - That's awesome. - This isn't an ad read for-- - It's definitely not. - No. - But anyways, well, thanks guys. - Thank you. - Bye. - Bye, I don't wanna leave. - All right. - Yeah, thanks for watching. - And we'll see you next Saturday. Goodbye. - Bye.
