The way they offered her ice cream was just rude that’s not how you treat an addiction
It’s like offering a recovering meth attic meth
Or a recovering hentai addict the at&t lady
What do you mean, this is how they do it in rehab. 😂 super professional
for me it just sounds weird. Like think how easy it would be to get over an addiction if it were like, “here have some drugs” “no thanks” “you’re cured 😊👌✨”

Creepy..
Bruh what the fuck why would you look at a lady with a eating disorder and be like HEEYYYY ITS A F R E A K Y EATER
@@SK8TERPRO241 celebrities aren't the same, you're saying this to a random person that you do not know, not thinking about their thoughts and/or feelings
you should at least consider... you know, NOT giving someone a compliment.
The fact that these people are addiction experts, or at least claim to be, is despicable. You NEVER offer someone who is 4 days into recovery their addiction. I have a family member who is 3 months sober from alcohol and we still have dry parties whenever we get together. She needs love, support, and help, not to be offered a glass of wine and say no.
such supportive family💕
You’re completely right. Absolutely absurd that they offered her icecream less than a week into recovery. Happy to hear your family is supportive of your loved one.
I’ve been sober for 9 years and my family still has dry parties and dinners. My parents don’t drink at all (even when I’m not around) - to show support and solidarity . It’s been nearly a decade into solid recovery and they are still mindful and careful of my feelings- even though it is no longer necessary.
Yeah, i have an uncle who has tried to quit alcohol several times for the sake of his wife and kids but unfortunately he always gets reintroduced within a month. It's sad who does legitimately want a better life but can't get rid of it. Im glad you're family is extremely supportive because I've lost several close family members or friends to addiction
Ikr. It's like sending someone to a rehab facility for drug addiction and then a few days later offering them crack. Like how is that a good idea???
Mind you, drugs have withdrawal symptoms that ice cream likely doesn't, but still.
The lady who only ate french fries and nearly threw up from the carrot probably has Avoidant Restristive Food Intake Disorder which often results in a limited diet of mostly proccessed carbs. Adding other foods into the diet is part of treatment but you don't go stright from only french fries to a food that has a completely different taste and texture that the person finds repulsive. Of course she was going to throw up.
It's likely most of the people in the show had some form of eating disorder, whether it be binge eating disorder, arfid, or pica.
I have ARFID and 'outgrew' (read: was viciously bullied out of) PICA and I very much felt the same. Like, I've reacted like that to unsafe foods--it was constant before starting recovery, and it was even for things I wasn't eating, so no wonder she reacted that way. And I also compulsively ate vaseline and chapstick, not because I wasnt aware that was not good, but because I didn't have coping skills.
This show is the entirely wrong way to treat anyone with an addiction (or eating disorder, which function like and can be considered addictions). It's hard to even watch clips and commentary on it.
Not only most likely. That's absolute the case.
I was thinking that. They should’ve given her sweet potato fries or mashed potatoes
i have arfid and pica and you are absolutely correct
i hate when people don't understand it and they think it's just "being picky" and they're like "back in my day we'd just force those spoiled kids to eat or they wouldn't eat anything!" like back in your day kids were terrified of their parents so they just did as they were told out of fear craig, shut up
I like to imagine this woman was addicted to cocaine, she's trying to be clean then someone comes up with a plate filled with big lines on a mirror.
Jay Fox this comment deserves so much recognition
Jay Fox sign me up
HAHAHHAH
if she was doing cocaine it would definitely stop her ice cream bar addiction
*Waiter brings plate of cocaine*
Lady: No, thank you! I’m sorry! That just, doesn’t look very good to me right now
imagine being pregnant for 9 months, having to go through the pain of having the child, and naming it JJ Virgin.
This is random af but my landlords last name is Virgin and I made the joke writing the first check that the mother of his kids is a virgin and he said, "Yup born a virgin and gonna die a Virgin." Pretty wholesome for someone who takes the majority of my money every month haha
Bet his middle name is "Dá"
Yeah but imagine it being “VJJ Virgin.”
So much worse
Wait a Seungminute
And then the kid had an oopsie at a club
IMAGINE
I do genuinely feel bad for the ice cream addict lady, but the fact that she described getting a divorce by saying "I cut loose the husband in my life" is absolutely hysterical
How is it hysterical? Sounds like a pretty standard way to describe it without just directly saying the word "divorce"
Edit: Y'all need to learn how to read. I'm asking a question. As in I don't understand. There's nothing to read into this, I just want an answer.
yep
she cut loose 😎 ( the husband in her life)
@@Naokarmabecause cut loose kind of has an implication of relief when its gone. Like if you cut loose that friend whos always asking you for money
@@beelzemobabbity Yeah, that's why it's a common phrase for that reason, hence my confusion on how it's hysterical.
that show feels very mean spirited, i don’t like how they’re essentially telling the people they’re fucked up; shaming and humiliating them. folks with eating disorders and food addictions are not less worthy of being treated with respect, love, and care.
Shame is usually a necessary predicate to personal growth. If you're not ashamed of your behavior to some degree, you'll never change.
Most of TV is like that. "The biggest loser" is nothing but "haha look at that fat person"
@@Jartran72 shame helps people to grow.
Look at what happens when fat people feel no shame at all. That's not good for them. That's not loving, to say you're fine just the way you are.
@@SeraphsWitness Shame causes more stress. Telling someone they need to change their habits because they’re in danger and offering to help does more good than telling someone they’re doing awful and expecting it to be better
There’s also a lot more than total acceptance and shaming. It isn’t so black and white
@@Pugkin5405 stress is good. stress causes a reaction.
Telling someone they're in danger is what I'm talking about. If someone is doing something immoral and harmful to themselves, they should feel shame as a predecessor to change.
As I've said multiple times, some level of shame is necessary for all forms of change. It's not possible to change unless you first acknowledge something is WRONG. This is extremely simple to understand.
*WE HAD KIMBERLY CLIMB MOUNT EVEREST WHERE WE MADE A ZIPLINE OUT OF ICE CREAM STICKS THAT SHE HAD TO RIDE BACK DOWN TO HER HOUSE*
LMAO
Lol! 🤣
She'd never have to worry about addiction for the rest of her life, on more than one level.
It sounds fun but very unstable

I've been sober for 5 years and I truly cannot imagine what it would be like if like one day into my recovery someone intentionally "tested" me by offering me alcohol. That doesn't do anything positive or prove anything, it's just mean and very weird.
It's staged.
@@SeraphsWitness haha thank you. I do know how TLC works though. I was talking about the concept of presenting this an effective way to help someone overcome an addiction.
@@non_brewed_condiment well sure, it's obviously psychotic if you don't warn the person. Lol
hope you are still doing fine! Just being sober does not mean that life is fine I learned that. I hope you have good social connections and a living family
I hope you're doing good, & stay safe plz!
I know it's just blue gatorade, but I like, physically cringed when I saw drew drinking that 'mouthwash'
Lol mouthwash really isn't too bad tbh
@@lucilleballs2291
Yeah, but it's really dangerous if consumed in large quantities (like 1 cup could probably cause issues)
@@sonicdml4175 I drank about two bottles worth before I quit.
@@lucilleballs2291
Did you drink two bottles at once?
Im guessing no, since you wouldn't be so casual about it if you did.
@@sonicdml4175 It's not uncommon for alcoholics to resort to drinking mouthwash when they run dry. It causes repairable damage if only done a time or so, but there's been documented cases of alcoholics constantly drinking it and causing permanent damage to their internal organs, much faster than if they had just kept drinking regular alcohol.
The maple syrup parts pisses ME off tbh. Maple syrup is expensive, that’s a huge waste
Besides it was completely useless, they could've put in a container and donated it, but nope they had to throw it in the fcking garbage.
I dont think that was even maple syrup, it looked more like tea
@@Apollo_G maybe they diluted it
Yeah. There are much more efficient ways to treat addictions like that and even though they did it for entertainment and pointless tension it's still kinda unpleasant to watch
IKR I was annoyed
If she really is addicted to ice cream, offering it to her is like offering shots to an alcoholic. Not cool.
@Miasma
I know but that's kinda... Idk... Off
It's also just awkward
Julia Katariina yeah it’s a shit move
@@ArmanBaig Can't reverse diabetes or heart disease.
YungKidneyBean The point was the addiction, not what the addiction is to.
@@ArmanBaig "Addiction is a treatable, chronic medical disease involving complex interactions among brain circuits, genetics, the environment, and an individual’s life experiences. People with addiction use substances or engage in behaviors that become compulsive and often continue despite harmful consequences."
It doesn't matter if you're addicted to something as innocuous as going fishing, by definition if you're addicted, it is inhibiting your ability to be a functioning human being, and damaging you in some way.
Jesus you had me at 13:40
“This is the amount of mouthwash you drink, after having one bottle of mouthwash, twice.”
the funniest/saddest part of drew's mouthwash addict is that that's literally a thing that very severe alcoholics will do - drink mouthwash because of the alcohol content. drew accidentally made an alcoholic 💀💀💀
Glad I’m not the only one who noticed. They’ve had episodes of Intervention where alcoholics were drinking mouthwash
“I cut loose the husband in my life” is the strangest way I’ve ever heard someone say they got divorced
SAME LMAO
Right it’s like “I’ve freed him from the pain that is being frozen” someone needs to show her frozen..
My parents divorced and the way my dad explained it to a distant relative was “she flew the coop”.That might just be southern talk though.
Maybe she kept him tied on a rope to her bed?
at that point it just sounds like their advertising divorce attorneys to old people.
“I’m JJ. Virgin”
“Okaaaay?”
this made me laugh way harder than it should have 😭
3:47
@HappyAndSadBoi I see sorry for misunderstanding
“Is that a confession?”
"I'm jj virgin"...
okaayyyy... I'm DD. sex addict
re: the fries/carrot girl's reaction--that gives me serious ARFID energy [in non-US places it's often selective eating disorder/SED]. it's an eating disorder that I have, which is especially common in Autistics and people with ADHD, where one's diet is extremely limited and it's violently distressing to eat outside of safe foods.
And the opposite of what you do to treat it is forcing someone to eat an unsafe food, right now, on camera, while multiple people watch them!!
Bro i was literally thinking the same thing. I'm like,,, hey that's an autism thing (I'm autistic) and like no "normal" or neurotypical person acts like that just cuz they don't wanna eat veggies. That girl most likely has something more serious going on and needs a more patient and caring approach, not TLC trying to force her to eat carrots for views
yeah, i think they mentioned arfid in that episode as well
i wish more people understood it, or even thought it existed, so many people have heard about it but they think it's just some made up disease to excuse being spoiled and it sucks.
i'm autistic and have it and it's really embarrassing for me but people think you're just being willfully picky or say shit like "if my kid had that i'd tell them they eat what i give them or starve!" as if that helps at all, it's frustrating and even if this show is scripted it doesn't help with that situation lmao
In the show they actually ramped up to the carrot, they didn't just give it to her.
I think I might have arfid
@@SeraphsWitness doesnt help very much. you have to very very slowly escalate to certain foods, sometimes that doesnt even work.
I just can’t stop imagining you doing this to confront Danny’s La Croix addiction. Lining up the cans and the boxes. Making him dump out the soda. Hilarious
Imagine going to an AA meeting and they serve alcohol.... that’s what they did with the ice cream
Laurel Shokes exactly
What us an aa meeting
Layth it’s where alcoholics go to help fight their addiction to alcohol
@@hhoneyglasss oh ok thanks
I think it’s more akin to getting someone through the whole process of AA then going hey have some alcohol
8:33 it's like... offering alcohol to a former alcoholic knowing that he was an alcoholic just to see his reaction... That's awful....
If that was me I would have been like. Moderation bitchesssss And its technical not a ice cream bar sooo...
I was thinking the same thing. She's only 4 days sober! you wouldn't do that to an alcoholic or drug addict
@@nemi7578 same lol
It's cruel and heartless
Agreed. That's so needlessly taunting. She already knew she needed to stop, so all that was, was salt in the wound.
The look on Kimberly's face as they tried to serve her ice cream just screamed "these assholes are STILL at it?"
the thing about the shock therapy that gets me is like, how does that icecream pile compare to the pile of all the other food the lady eats? like people need to eat, and if you piled up a year's worth of food it would look like a huge amount

why does the guy who eats raw meat look so much like a vegetarian
I can’t explain why you’re right but you’re right
As a vegetarian I completely concur with this statement
*why* does this make sense
Because the circle closed
Maurice Jones he looks like he would walk up to a stranger just to tell them he’s a vegan
Ahhh, just buying all my unmarked, unbranded ice cream bars, the ones I really like, and - AH A TV CREW!
its even funnier bc the tv crew was already there filming her and she still had to act surprised when she saw JJ and the dude lmfao

*immediately screenshots*
Yep and just driving an ice cream with all the brands blocked out with white tape
I'm just buying my unbranded popsicle boxes with the camera in my face and another one facing the other end of the isle, but what's that? 2 people are walking towards me from where cameraman 2 was facing? Who could've seen this coming
As if it wasn't already obviously staged, they also have her putting *plain, empty cardboard boxes* in her cart (presumably to not be seen as endorsing a specific brand)
I like how ice cream lady is pulling pure white unmarked corrugated cardboard boxes out of the freezer as if anyone has ever bought popsicles like that.
*laughs in growing up in a trailer park with multiple other children*
unmarked generic brand are cheaper and better to buy in larger amounts, that's exactly where an addict would go to not break the bank on their addiction lol

@@CZcamsaccoubr wow that would be terrifying
Even funnier: The people at TLC have a bunch of clips of the person feeding their addiction, which like, _isn't helping._ Holy shit, just imagine being on the show and them just being like: "Okay, we're going to help you get over this addiction, but first we need like 20 minutes of you eating raw meat while a disembodied voice tells the viewers how disgusting you are."
Oh god, I didn't even think about that. Ew.

The girl that only eats fries has ARFID, Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder.

She's not making it up, nor is she dramatizing it, it is just actually that bad for us.

One thing that really bugs me about the "let's show them all the shit they ate" part is that even if you're eating a normal amount of something you like, if someone gathered up all the trash from it for like a full year, isn't it always gonna look like a lot?
I can't even imagine how many eggs I've eaten in the past 365 days lol
The scripted part of the lady meeting the hosts was so funny. She just seemed so confused and like she had no idea what was going on. It was like she didn’t even know about the show.
With the ice cream woman, when they said "We have one last surprise for you" why did I literally go "Omg it's the ex husband" 💀💀💀
Would've taken a turn
@@hartley9003 it would’ve been 100x better if the ex husband came in and just completely roasted her
It would be better that way
I feel bad for the woman though
Wait- was it not her ex husband? Who was it then 💀
offering a thing someone’s addicted to 4 days after they’re clean is something you SHOULD NEVER do to someone with an addiction
Yeah like wtf
When they were like "we have one last challenge"
I thought they would walk up to her and be like
"You did amazing, and you're still doing amazing. We are proud of you and are here to support you through your journey, and know that we believe in you, and you should believe in yourself too. You can do this, you're awesome."
But no
They just fucking gave her ice cream
Like wtf
Its like telling someone with an ed hey just eat when they are recovering
⚠️TW SELF HARM⚠️
Its like offering someone with a cutting addiction a razor and time alone.
@@julmonaide oh my god that is the perfect analogy, i understood that handing her icecream was very dumb but i didnt understand why until i read your comment. Thank you!
"Hey I saw you were 4 days clean of heroin, would you like this syringe full of it?" That's basically what it sounded like
7:30 that’s also just a huge waste of syrup
Presenting a recovering “addict” with the thing they’re addicted to, especially during a celebration of their improvement, is like so terrible.
>title references “my strange addiction” and “my crazy obsession”

Imagine the same story structure as in the segment with the ice cream lady, but instead of ice cream it was heroin. Hosts came to her with a spoon and the syringe and like «how 'bout a shot?»
As someone with dietary restrictions due to a mental disability, something like this happening to me would probably stop me from ever going back to therapy. It’s really disgusting to make already weak communities feel ashamed of themselves about something that they are relying on YOU for assistance with. Shows that depict mentally ill/ mentally disabled people in this way really harm us even more.
Part of me thought they were going to bring out her ex husband😂
Emily_Catherine SAME, I was so prepared for that
That would have been fucking amazing
No joke, oh my god
You're ready to start your new life with the support of your love ones and finally move on from your past relationship? WELL TOO FUCKING BAD

I like how when they “surprise” her at the grocery store she just happens to be buying unlabeled boxes of ice cream bars
While being filmed
as people do
just a normal day at tlc
Grocery store crammed 14 of the same unlabeled brand ice cream sandwich boxes in one section.
As you do.
lacy jeanne 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I actually had an alcoholic neighbor when I was a kid who drank mouthwash. It was lowkey horrifying, but no one ever acknowledged it.
yeah, apparently some alcoholics drink mouthwash for the alcohol content. :(
7:40
What pisses me the hell off with this one
1: It is a complete waste of a stupid amount of a resource that could be given to others
2: Maple Syrup, in moderation, is actually quite healthy. It is high in antioxidants and offers nutrients like riboflavin, zinc, magnesium, calcium and potassium. It is also relatively low in calories.
Basically, Maple Syrup isn't the issue at all. He isn't treating his body like a trash can for eating it. He is for eating as much as he does.
3: The analogy used used circular reasoning. Saying it is like treating himself as a trash can, but only because they had him out in in the trashcan to begin with. It is just circular logic and reasoning.
i don't get point 3
Imagine being at someone’s 1 year sobriety party and then a waiter starts walking round passing out shots and offers one to the alcoholic
Well tbh, it happens with that one.
It wasn't even one year, it was FOUR DAYS
Yeah, it being 4 days is the part that sucks. After a year it's much easier to decline it, 4 days is basically nothing.
But on these shows it's always a speedrun
@@loli_cvnt5622 For real, like if someone offered me a cigarette four days after I quit I would've absolutely taken it.
I mean, it's just the boss level.
whose gonna tell him about the lady who actually eats rocks
My thought exactly😂
Why do i watch tlc at three.in the morning to laugh at it
Also the one who eats mattresses
Bring in a stonehenge rock and ask if she still wants to eat it
Well it seems you just did.
7:15 Holy shit do they know how much maple syrup costs!?
11:37 glad to see the sonic adventure two battle sound mixers still got work
It feels super weird that they're playing with addiction like this.
Imagine if it was like a drug addiction and they try and fix it by lining a pavement with needles or something. It's just weird.
that's just a jigsaw trap
There was a show that tried to “help” with people’s drug issues. It was called “Celebrity Rehab” and luckily the show no longer exists. But sadly people like Mike Starr overdosed after being on the show. It was terrible.
At the party due being sober the waiter just brings out that type of drug

Yoooooooooo
I got it to 999 and then it got to 1k right after
Like if she accepted it i would imagine there would be loud edited in gasps and a zoom in of her eating icecream
The show feels like if someone had a successful intervention, and to celebrate, everyone took some shots
Man, I feel so bad for the ice cream lady. Not just cause of what led her to the addiction, but also how poorly they handled it. It's not super comparable, but I had a self harm addiction and it was hell. Had quite a few relapses even after years of being clean. It's not as common as running into a trigger for a food addiction, but there was so much work and emotional health problems that I had to deal with for that. Addictions are rough no matter what it is and most addicts know well enough what it's like and how bad it is. Like most of the time, addicts don't need to be made aware of how much they intake or how bad it is or that they "treat their body like trash." Even she said she wanted to get better. It's one thing to just stop, but you not only have to find other and healthier coping mechanisms, but also you have to get to the root. That's why drug addicts and alcoholics often relapse. It's very situational things that lead to those and most of the help doesn't really work for long term things because they may not be getting the help they need. Such as poverty and low income being a big factor that contributes to addiction, as well as the addictive elements like nicotine. Actual addictions require more. A real world test for her would have been grocery shopping since it's a regular activity.
Just a reminder for anyone struggling, addictions are tough especially if not provided adequate solutions to the problems that lead to addiction and not given proper help/treatment. If you do relapse, that happens and it can be hard to cope with the feelings, but you can do it again and you aren't lesser or broken or defeated for it. I believe in you all ^v^
For those that have broken addictions and are clean, I am SO PROUD OF YOU!!! And same to those that are working hard!!! I'm proud of anyone no matter where they are with their addiction!!! You are worthy of love and treatment and care!!! 💜💜💜
Edit: My addiction isn't one naturally run into, but even I get tempted when it comes to alcohol. Thanks to trauma, personality disorders, all that stuff, I am at risk of addiction and I know it cause I've had a craving for it in my reckless episodes before, I just don't physically have access to it and I'm incompetent with how to get it. Just seeing people enjoy alcohol can make me extremely anxious and uncomfortable because I know how dangerous it can be for someone like me. I have to be careful. But to have someone that is recovering already from having an addiction and to offer them the addiction is GROSS GROSS GROSS!!!!! I get uncomfortable just being around people drinking cause of pressure and cravings and urges thanks to impulsive/reckless behaviour and self-destructive tendencies where I find a strong urge/desire to ruin myself in response to trauma and such. Let alone if I was actually addicted to it and trying to recover and being offered it.
Like I still have to manage my self harm addiction even though I am clean for years now and don't rely on it. Because triggering imagery or mentions of certain words (like the word c*t, censored for my benefit, can be enough to trigger me even if it's about vegetables and not self harm) can have me feeling incredibly anxious and having to distract myself to resist it. It's so messed up to offer her it as a "real world" test. Exposure to things in a therapy sense does NOT work like that either!
Edit 2: I'm autistic and have AFRID (selective eating disorder) and uh, yeah, I have almost thrown up from things too. I struggle with foods that have strong tastes too. Even if I liked grilled cheese, I've almost gotten sick eating it. I've expanded my list of safe foods thankfully so I'm having actual meals (especially since I was neglected and my parents couldn't handle an autistic kid with needs), but it can take a while. I have struggled through foods just for the sake of other people. It's really hard to live with especially since I've had anorexia before and a lot of insecurities around food and eating too thanks to abuse and neglect and weight issues. Especially getting labelled as a "picky eater" when really it was a legitimate eating disorder that is common with autistic and adhd folks. I've mostly expandes my safe foods because a lot of previous safe foods (unhealthy ones) would trigger my IBS and gastrointestinal issues and out of sake for not suffering, I had to do something plus the toll it took on my self esteem as I gained weight (unrelated, still not fully understood, probably related to my PCOS.)
So I get it. A carrot for her could be extremely repulsive. Even though I "like" broccoli or can tolerate it, I literally ate it tonight in tiny nibbles because I can't handle actual bites of strong foods. It's a real thing and it can majorly suck when it comes to health issues. Like, again, the only reason I expanded it was for self esteem and not having to suffer through stomach problems that genuinely had me crying and contemplating suicide bc im a highly unstable invidivual. It was literally out of one thing being worse than the other.
But that's basically my rant. A lot of my expanded safe foods is also thanks to my friend's family cooking good food. My parents don't really do that outside of dishes they like (which don't interest me or make me sick) and then they just go "oh well" to me. So. Thank you friend's family. But this is basically just an autistic ramble that yeah, that kind of thing is real and it can be different for everyone. I'm happy with my diet today, but still feel insecurities about not "eating normal" like other people do.
hi! Ik this is prob incredibly cringe to hear, but this comment helped me learn i have AFRID and better understand myself because i have a very similar experience to you, I just wanted to say hi and thank you for... existing, I guess.
the mouthwash skit is one of my favorite drew skits its so funny and never fails to make me laugh i think because its so relatable, i too love to drink mouth wash.
Tbh the maple syrup one pissed me the hell off too. Good maple syrup is not cheap. They didn’t have to waste it like that
YES!! This made me so mad! That was sickening. People had to work to get that maple syrup and that was a huge cost to send to a dump!
Edit: I've now read in the comments that it is fake, so that's good LOL
maple syrup is made with tree sap too. it not only wasted money but wasted a lot of sap that is hard to harvest
I doubt it was real maple syrup
I've found the Canadians
It was probably the stuff that’s made of high fructose corn syrup
Thats like "congrats on completing the 12 steps to AA, free shots for everyone!"
she'd been 4-days clean of ice cream, so it's more like after completing the first step.
i went for a jog, time for an ice cream bar
@@LezbeOswald still seems like a bad idea.
Help them to party a little bit dude.
I really don't know how anyone could've benefited from being on one of these addiction shows, especially Knowing how they live to exaggerate and overstate the drama and strangeness of a situation.
Exploiting someone's vulnerabilities for entertainment and such ain't great.
I’m from africa and eating raw beef is very common and isn’t bad for you as long as it is sanitary. however not everyone is tolerant to it, but I’ve been eating it since I was a little boy
Strange addiction: Drew Gooden
Crazy addiction: Danny Gonzalez
good one, same
Holy shit, I just realized their initials are the same
do... do you mean crazy obsession
The fact that you didn't write " Crazy *Obsession* " hurts me
Freaky eaters: Cody Ko
Imagine people treating someone with an alcohol addiction this way. It's literally considered horribly rude to offer someone you know is an addict a drink.
Throwing those in her face at her reception, where she was supposed to be celebrating herself and be proud of her progress, is genuinely emotionally abusive.
It's disgusting behavior. They're ADULTS, they should know better.
Sugar Leaf no sorry that doesn’t look very good to me right now
I'M SORRY
Michael Mell I'd normally go for it but RIGHT NOW I just don't feel like it
If somebody did that to my dad (recovering alcoholic) I would be offended. It's such a rude and horrible thing, its tempting the person. But having no remorse is worse.
i like how the kid is wearing a gatorade shirt just to show that drew was drinking gatorade and not actually mouthwash
I laughed audibly when the name PJ Handjob came on the screen. Holy shit. I'm literally in the hospital thanks drew. Now I'm gonna go overdose on mouthwash.
Drew is really accusing two shows of pretending to be different when him and Danny do the same thing
wait drew talked about this too? because this is danny’s channel
Ethan Binder wait this isn’t Danny’s channel?
wait they’re two different people?
I'm addicted to TEA your username is so relevant to the video
they thought posting at different times today would change the fact that we know
That guy talking about Kimberly smashing the ice sounds like that one English teacher trying to make the most basic of stories sound like the most symbolic thing ever
“The closed curtains are blue”
They’re blue because it symbolizes depression and loneliness and the reason why they’re closed is because the main character feels like they’re trapped in depression.
...wasn’t this character literally portrayed as the literal embodiment of happiness whose favourite colour is blue?
STOP TALKING BACK TO ME! DETENTION!
@@phet1211 xD this comment is so underrated
TheDisguisedCreeper That’s literally it. An ELA teacher once had us analyze why in the title “My Life With the Chimpanzees” the word “With” was capitalized. She made us say that it was symbolic of feeling and connecting with the chimps like ???
@@lee2791 I've always sucked at understanding symbolicism. Like, *sometimes* it even sort of makes sense, but I'd never EVER get it unless you told me. I had that issue when trying to analyze political cartoons, too. It's like, here's this grandma telling the US to not go outside it's own borders, clearly the person thinks that Grandmas are lame and that isolationists are being overprotective and America should help out with Europe. Nope! It's actually the complete opposite and the author is an isolationist. Why was it a grandma????
"She sat against the blue wall"
Teacher (Janet): "Now can anyone tell me why the wall was blue?
Brandon"
Brandon: "I don't know maybe because it was the only colour there when they were at Woody's?"
Teacher (Janet): This is not funny Brandon, in fact, the walls were painted blue because of the author's long battle with depression"
Brandon: NO JANET. THE WALLS WERE PAINTED BLUE BECAUSE THE AUTHOR WANTED TO MAKE THE WALLS BLUE THERE'S NO PHILOSOPHY BEHIND IT"
I thought it was relevant 😐
i was thinking of shock therapy as electric shocks and was horrifiedly waiting for them to hook her up
drew chugging the mouthwash right before the ad read definitely was one of the moments of all time
TLC: Hey can I copy your homework?
TLC looking in the mirror: Sure just don’t make it too obvious
Aww dont sorry I'll change a couple answers around.
That’s not my job it’s thesaurus’ job.
I know he’s been doing this for a while, but every time Drew says “Hey Guy” without the plural I get a weird feeling similar to picking up an empty can I thought was full. Just... _unexpected voidness._
1000th like 😎
this is weirdly understandable
This is one of the first of a few videos I've watched on this channel, and every time I hear it I feel a little more hollow. How long has he been doing this now?
i know someone named Guy... imagine knowing you're having a kid. You're like "omg yay" and you figure out its a boy and you're like "yay i guess boys are gross-" and you name it *Guy*.. Like his name... is Guy...
gotta love shows that get their kicks out of making people who are going thru really tough shit feel like absolute garbage for the ways they choose to handle it instead of, idk, trying to help them overcome their addictions in real and meaningful ways that *DON'T* make them feel like absolute garbage
These skits are so great. I love how you make your own version of these shows, which just feels just like the real thing. The sound effects are spot on.
That syrup was 100% fake but, as someone who makes maple syrup, it still hurt me to even think of that much being wasted
Thanks for making my pancakes taste better
Oh thank god
How’d you know it was fake
TinnierSpark326 Idk maybe they can tell the texture, look, etc is different from the kind they make? It did look kinda watery lol.
@@Otaniii it looks like when you leave cola out for a while and all the carbonation fades
When you said shock therapy I thought you meant actual electric shock therapy for a minute and I was.. concerned
so did i omg
c-c-conversion therapy??!?!
Food conversion therapy
+Kay Schwab same though
Well, electric shock therapy is, in fact, sometimes used to treat severe obsessive-compulsive disorder
I am blown away at how talented you are - you’re timing and wit are impeccable! I look forward to seeing more. Bravo!
Hey I actually know abt the French fry girl! She had an eating disorder and refused to eat any food besides French fries bc it was her only safe food :( unfortunately she was rewarded for this and by how I learned abt her, the Guiness book of world records.
"this is the amount of mouthwash you drink, after drinking one bottle of mouthwash, twice."
Lold at that part 😂😂
🤯
i laughed so hard i snorted
Stop quoting
That’s some logic right there
When you dont want to buy more than 2 bottles of publix mouthwash as props
I thought the same thing lol
they’re EXPENSIVE
Also 5 packets of coolade to replace the mouthwash
Twisty Noodle It was Gatorade. It’s in the description.
colgate plax is better lol
Whenever you say “hey guy” at the beginning everything you say after sounds like you’re personally talking to me
12:43 PUT THAT DEOWN
what's even worse, more than the fact that they were offering her something that she was TRYING to get over, but the fact that she developed the addiction due to emotional distress, and instead of getting her genuine help and therapy, they just basically insulted her for an entire video
youd be surprised to know how many ppl think thats how to get over addictions and dont get they'll relapse
Also she can eat ice cream, the point is she’s eating ice cream way too much and it isn’t good for her what’s good for her is eating ice cream when she should be not stopping her from eating it forever 😭
yeah, it sucks, I'm rly sorry for her
@@Name-tn1zg Exactly. So many people think that getting over an addiction means you can NEVER have it again, which simply is not the case. You can have it every now and then just as long as you ain't overdosing on it. Don't know why so many people disregard that completely.
@@Sawlky The problem is often that there is no such thing as "having just a little" for an addict. Yes, you can physically have a little and not get hurt, but often that slowly spirals out of control really fast. Cause if you can have a little and it's okay, you can have a little more. But addiction can have different effects on different people. (if you ask me the biggest difference in general is between people using substances to fill a certain emptiness or people being addicted to a certain substance)
When he first said shock therapy I thought they were gonna taze her😂
I thought he meant electroshock therapy and i was like woah now
@@lilissupafly 😂
Asprin same. 😂😂😂
Ikrr😂😂😂
* vomits a whole ice cream bar *
"The Learning Channel", "The Discovery Channel", and "The History Channel" are all the same channel now. Basically Reality TV collections.
I remember when History Channel was mostly Ken Burns documentaries.
Mm love seeing what are clearly eating disorders trivialized like this while treating addiction like some sort of joke.
When he originally said shock therapy I thought he meant shocking as in like ELECTRICITY
Aaron Fry SAMEEEE
Lmao right I was like um hi that's a very serious medical procedure and also not a treatment for addiction 😂😂😂
I agree and I feel like the show misusing terms like that is irresponsible. With that said the whole show is exploitive so not suprising 🤷♂️
Mike Pence style
@@NoBaloneyHomosapiens Shock therapy is used for that type of process. It's not wrong.
My favorite one is where she’s addicted to eating cornstarch and they make her walk through oobleck, and say *thats inside of you*
I ate oobleck before and it’s delicious, honestly.
That's the stupidest argument for anything I've ever heard. There are few foods I would actually enjoy walking through.
On a side note, walking through oobleck sounds fun.
Soyeye what is oobleck?
Now walking through mash potatoes, that sounds like a good time
@@Thecatsworlds oobleck is what you get when you mix cornstarch and water
One of my good friends in highschool was addicted to drinking mouthwash. Well he was an alcoholic and the most easily accessible alcohol was in mouthwash so he would go to the grocery store and just chug mouth wash to get drunk. Insane stuff
Tysm for the captions!!
hey! we take people with debilitating addictions and then use a bunch of empty packages and wasteful methods to emphasize just how much they use said addicting item, and then shove it back in their faces when they make progress! some of them even get makeovers cause lets be honest, they look like shit. haha :) would you like to be on our show? oh also i forgot, jj virgin’s the name, curing addictions is my game💪🏽
Simone Millsap I’m crying right now 💀💀💀
I have an addict to sucking my fingers as a comping mechanicism
MoonArtz you’re joking right
@@snoop2.055 its like biting your nails
Fuck I thought this was real-
Honestly it’s kinda degrading and rude how they pop up in their life and expect them to be willing to go along with what they say. The most heart breaking one has to be Martin. Like he obviously was caught off guard.
I read this before finishing the video and skipped around for the Martin segment and was upset I couldn’t find it until I watched the whole thing haha
yeah ;(
If it weren't utterly scripted, I would wholeheartedly agree.
Can someone explain? I don’t watch it?
@@onyourleft9273 at the end Drew did a skit about a guy named Martin who was addicted to drinking mouthwash lol
the "well i cERtainly didn't expect THIS to happen! 😱" followed immediately by "he seems caught off guard 🤔" is just so fuckin funny to me
i'm glad someone finally took on this issue. i watched this tv show and Drew is so correct.
low key seeing that guy dump out all that maple syrup made me mad. that stuff takes FOREVER to collect. why couldn’t they have donated it or something. i hope it was fake
they waste so much food on this show every time they do their little “shock therapy” sessions
RIGHT that was so disgusting. like what the fuck?????
@@LifeAsMegan it's fucked how damaging their little shaming sessions are
Totally agree! Also maple syrup is so expensive thats a waist in every way!
Judging from the rest of the episode quality, they don’t have the budget for that much real syrup
For a split second, when I looked at the thumbnail, I thought the woman was addicted to eating blocks of cheese lol.
Omg same. 😂😂
I thought she had soap on a stick
Same
Macy Cole me too
I went back, and it surprisingly looks like she's chewing a triangular slice of cheese on a stick.
As someone who hates food wastage seeing that trash bin of maple syrup being wasted is just-
