"Your nauseous reaction to the smell of bad food might be repressed racism."
I think part of my brain caved in hearing that drivel.
It’s idiots like these that make fighting actual bigotry much harder
You're not the only one
Yeah I was like "WTF?!?!?!"
Only a leftist could ever make such a blatantly stupid remark...
That's the left for ya
Story 1: As a Korean myself I thought she was bringing in Kimchi that was fermented wrong or Bulgogi made with rotten beef but then that twist happened and I was just palming my forehead.
Korean food smell so good so i was confused too
@@MadameChouette800 yeah kimchi just has a strong taste, so I can imagine people disliking it (I love it) but it isn't like rotten.
@@calidafeuersichel1515 and it’s at least no more smelly than other cabbage-based dishes from any culture, too.
@@the_rachel_sam Not so; KFC-style coleslaw doesn't really smell though I think most other coleslaw does. I also think corned beef and cabbage smells delightful, but maybe the potatoes and carrots we add to it at our house, as well as all the corned beef's spices, counteracts the normally smelly nature of cooked cabbage.
That said, kimchi is supposed to be fragrant, not stinky, so I wondered at first if maybe the coworker was just a bad cook... and yes, I facepalmed when it was fettuccine alfredo. Maybe she thought she should ferment that too?
@@NotAFanOfHandles I should have specified cooked cabbage! A lot of slaw doesn’t have a strong scent to me, either. I just mean that for cabbage in particular, when we cook it, we usually go nose-blind. It’s very different being the person cooking cabbage rolls, southern style cabbage and pork, etc., and being the person that walks into the house and smells it for the first time lol. I also don’t think it “stinks” but it’s a strong scent. Kimchi gets it scent from the fermentation of the cabbage and the various fish-based ingredients that can be used, so it’s also a strong scent.
Story 1: I wouldn't be surprised if she ends up in the hospital soon. If not, she's got one of the strongest immune systems I've ever heard of. Someone needs to be called because she's on the verge of getting herself very sick or even unalived.
Yeah but even with a strong immune system at some point if you're eating rotten food it will affect you at some point. Most because you're not actually getting the nutritions you want and filtering out most of the toxins and waste.
The second story is just so wholesome and lovely honestly. All the best for them and may they stay together for as long as possible.
If I had to take a guess, this crazy coworker in the first story heard about fermented foods being a staple of Korean cultural foods and equates anything she thinks she has "fermented" into "Korean" food as well.
I was wondering this too. Or, she just doesn't clean her fridge out and eats really old food.
There is no accounting for some people's taste. I once had a female coworker on evening shift who would microwave popcorn, and always burned it! I'm talking blackened and virtually charred! I asked her about it, as it really stunk up the work space. She said that's how she liked it! 🙄
Given that the description of the pasta is "curdled milk", I don't think that's it. It wasn't even Korean, much less being able to be fermented. Besides there's a lot of fermented foods in western cuisines that stink. Like saurkraut and pickled eggs.
@@impishrebel5969 sure, but if we are talking about someone this delusional, I don't know how else to explain how someone rationalizes her food as "cultural" when the main thing in common is that it is rotten. Wasn't trying to say nobody else ferments things, just that this sounds like the kind of crazy person to hear about kimchi and thought it could be applied to other stuff that she has no idea how to do or if it can be done safely in the first place
🤣
That first story is absolutely absurd. She just wants to be a victim.
It's not absurd at all, that's just modern culture. You reap what you sow. Enjoy!
She doesn't want to be a real victim. Real victims have real problems, and this woman is too fake to deal with anything real. She wants to play the victim card for sympathy and attention, the way a toddler cries to get mommy to tell off the other kid.
I agree. This is what you get for being a whiney baby. However I don’t think she’s a racist just a thin skinned millennial/Gen z
@@limemason now that's just factually incorrect. Ppl with persecution fetishes have been around since forever
@@Luko8657 mmm, yes, but it is amplified, especially with the 20-something and unders. They use it to manipulate and garner sympathy because they see other young people do it and get praised and attention for it. I would say the % of spoiled brats in the Western World has increased above the norm.
In the Korean fetachini Alfredo story, I'm curious if she made the smelliest food she could just so she could get a rise out of somebody to get someone in trouble for being a "racist." honestly I wouldn't put it past some people these days.
Especially with all the gross exaggerations she posted to social media, knowing this person could see it.
Yep, she is one of those types that want to be special and so badly be a victim, so she posted that nonsense on social media for clout, like these types all do.
Considering how lucrative professional victimhood is nowadays, it's a possibility.
>fetachini
I think this woman is the kind of delusional narcissist who thinks her cooking is great even though it's the exact opposite, and also is looking to get a rise out of her coworkers so she can play the race card for sympathy and attention and thus feed her narcissistic supply. The only way I can explain this is that this woman is SO EGOTISTICAL that she refuses to acknowledge how terrible her cooking is and blames everyone but herself for it, and brings in rotten food because she thinks fermented food is Korean food and fermenting food means leaving it to rot. This woman wants to appear Korean because she thinks it'll get her brownie points and make her look good, and snaps if anyone tries to challenge her ambition because of how unhinged and narcissistic she is.
Story 2: Man reddit has messed me up so much that I thought the story was going to immediately turn for the worst during the update 😂😂I'm glad it went well for OP and his gf
Yeah, I was waiting for an unreasonable negative reaction
I want to believe in love, goddammit!
Me too - I was waiting for something to happen that would make me say WTF, but it was just so sweet 🙂
Yo same I’m so fucking happy!
Same. same.
Story 1: I don't care what food she has if it stinks so bad that the whole office feels like their going to puke then you have a right to say something. Also she didn't assume anything, she just wanted to play a victim of racism and talk about how they stood up for herself. I say this because one she was lied about what she said, and two because that assumption was so specific that it has to be a lie.
Yup, honestly I'd call 'people hating the smell of my food is the worst racist attack I've ever felt' extreme privilege.
I think the only "culture" she was bringing into work was *bacterial.*
Exactly, the last phrase is on point. Liars nearly always go into way too much unecessary detail with their stories. It is very obvious with bad liars but pathological ones do it smarter and so brazen that there is basically no difference between them telling a true or a made up story.
The OP said the food smelled rancid. Maybe she was developing some sort of dementia due to eating spoiled food!
i bet that she is the one who is racist. to just automatically assume that someone is saying something racist when there is no way that racism could be even rationally assumed means she has racist thoughts always on her mind. also i wonder if her food makes her sick or if she's got like an iron stomach or just doesn't really eat the food. how can you eat something like that everyday and not notice how bad it is?
If you have a breakroom at work, you should be eating lunch in the breakroom. I've worked at places before and at each place we were told absolutely no food is allowed at your desks specifically because of odors permeating the office area. These are office areas and we don't want to offend clients when they come in.
Also, to keep bugs and vermin out of the office.
It's possible that they aren't customer facing offices. I work at a dealership, and while meals aren't allowed in the showroom, other departments (who only work with clients over the phone) are allowed to eat meals at their desks.
Also wage theft is a thing - eating and working over lunch is bad practice, especially if it is an unpaid lunch break. If people are eating at their desks in order to keep working then they are allowing their bosses to steal from them.
This woman is the kind of person who thinks any rules imposed on her are racist, never mind that the rules apply to everyone
Our breakroom at work was very small, only four people being able to sit at the table. The kitchen was a separate small room next to it. We often ate at our desks, although heating and eating "stinky food" was considered very bad form. Once someone nuked up some shrimp. That stank! We did have a fairly decent cafeteria in our building, where I would often eat, and sometimes I would drive to a nearby fastfood joint. So we had a lot of options.
The Korean employee, not even her "cultural food"! Sheesh.
I think the fact people were saying 'get a restraining order' for the first story says so much more than the entirety of the story given. They need to get the co-worker psyciatric help yesterday.
Second story, it's nice to have some emotional cleansing with a nice story like that, no strings attached. You can almost call the GF motivated to play that crap out of her new machine.
Third story, OP's mother might be getting cut from both sides. Not like she doesn't deserve it with bullshit like that.
Last story: I can't wrap my head around how OP's mom thought she was going to hide the fact that OP is the best man from her other son until the day of the wedding. Was his brother just... never supposed to ask? Was his brother and his fiancée just supposed to not notice that there's no best man throughout the entire rest of the planning and prep stages? No best man to throw the bachelor party, no best man for the rehearsal dinner... "Oh, it's fine, I'm sure one will just show up the day of!"
Also, shame on every family that embraces the cheaters. I hope OP decides to go full no contact with them all someday. It doesn't sound like they deserve him. Good on his wife for laughing.
It sounds like the mom never took the relationship between OP and ex in high school very seriously, even though he said it was real, and when ex cheated with OP's brother she was just like, "Oh, okay, now she's with my other son, cool!" OP deserves an apology from all of them for how they've treated him all these years. How can mom expect them to get along after all this?
Story 1: "Unhinged" is the EXACT word to describe that woman, wtf is her problem
My theory is that she isn't refrigerating her groceries.
@@joythefrankenfluffy1635 I think because some Korean food has fermented ingredients she thought that meant all other ingredients would taste better fermented
Which firstly wrong mindset but secondly there are food that you should not ferment because it becomes toxic to consume.
- Insane
- Crazy
- Demented
- Psychotic
- Deranged
- Nuttier than squirrel poop
- Off her rocker
More words to describe this "korean" woman.
Not, it's stupid wokeness which have gotten out of hand, we can't even complain, without being labelled as racist or another label
Edit:She was so unhinged and cruel, just why😭😭
@@yabe-kfptentacultist She must have a stomach made of lead to be able to handle at the radioactive garbage she's consuming. Alfredo sauce, homemade or not is all just various dairy (butter, cream and cheese) and flour. How the hell does one FERMENT DAIRY or at the very least not notice it's gone bad. I am struggling so hard to wrap my head around how this woman is eating dairy so deeply spoiled that everyone in a 5-meter radius of her can tell.
Story 1: Heard this story before, and there's a reason everyone should eat in the damn breakroom. No one wants to be the kid that makes the classroom reek of tuna salad and orange peel. Also that woman seriously needs to learn how to properly store food and log expiration dates before she or someone else keels over!
Story 2: Finally, something wholesome! -- ("She likes Vergil for some reason") LOL! Well, he is the hotter twin IMO.
Story 3: Wow, OP's parents had the audacity not to show up at his wedding because his girlfriend-stealing brother didn't want to go, then the mother lied about his brother wanting him to be best man at his own wedding? ... My guess is that she wants both of her sons present to either keep up appearances or wants to force reconciliation ... I dunno, her favoritism is confusing AF here. Did she start a Instagram account or something?
Yet she didn't care about those appearances at OP's wedding...
I feel her pain. My mother's job had a small kitchen with a microwave and few shelves where employees could leave some food and, obviously, cook it. One employee would take up an entire shelf with a bag of onions. He'd eat them like apples but never quite finish the bag--they would go bad and attract bugs. He also liked to microwave fish. HR was busy with guy.
Sooo that's someone who has no regard for shared space
Oh god! Rotten onions! As well as rotten potatoes....🤢🤮🤯
@@utej.k.bemsel4777 Rotting potatoes, just so you know, can also secrete toxic gases if they rot long enough, and are _definitely_ not to be eaten once they turn green.
I absolutely sympathize with op in the first story. Even as a fully Chinese raised Chinese, there is a dish which sounds vaguely similar to the dish the coworker brought in that literally makes me dry gag by the smell, and when made literally fills every room of my house
Edit: the name of the dish is luo si fen or snail rice noodles. Also, I'm assuming the Korean coworker might have used rice noodles or maybe some seasonings to "make it more Asian"
Snail Rice Noodles? That….doesn’t use literal snails, right?
Forgive me if I’m being an idiot
@@CyborgCharlotte yes, there are actual river snails in the recipe
I’ve unintentionally conditioned my dog to Rslash videos meaning sleep because I listen to them in the evening when I need to sleep, so they are now on repeat when I leave my apartment to keep her calm x)
I love this 🤣
nice 1
Aw so cute ❤
I wonder if she ever tries to talk to Yugo during puppy bloopers
Pavlov would be proud. 😀
First story: I get that insulting someone’s cultural food is “racist” but if it literally makes your office stink then it’s not the person saying it stinks but it’s the literal food.
The fact that it's literally not even food from her culture makes it so much worse and incomprehensible
Not liking a particular type of food isn't even racist.
Welcome to 2023, you could bring haggis and sue when people complain about the smell if it's your culture. Well, maybe not since that's a white culture.
I wonder if a white co-worker brought in the very same food cooked by the Korean woman would that have made it smell better? No, it would have been equally as offensive smelling.
The cries of racism were merely deflections from the issue OP brought up, that the smell of the food was making her ill.
I love Korean food, went to Korean restaurants, and never seen anything like this. And it turns out the food wasn't even Korean. Probably fettuccine with turned cream.
Here's my guess, she heard that Korean cooking uses fermented things (things that are super yummy BTW) and thought "Fermented means rotten!" And tried to "ferment" her cooking. But that's my only guess as to why all her cooking smells that bad. It must be intentional; how could it not be?
I never thought I would ever google "fermented meat" but TIL it's actually a thing
@@KinCryos When done properly it tastes pretty good too! And you've likely eaten it before- forms that the western world eats is commonly stuff like sausage, salami, and pepperoni. It's a good way to prolong the shelf life of meats. (Though if you don't know what you're doing, it'd probably be best to start with drying meats instead- it's got much less of a risk for botulism.
Agreed I had kimichi sauce on cucumbers it's really good!
That story 1 really puts my fears of adopting into reality, her parents took care of her for 25 years and they still get treated like nothing but servants...disgusting human being right there and I really feel sorry for her parents.
Adoption can cause some pretty bad mental health issues for the adoptee. Especially when they are from a different culture. It causes them to feel disassociation to their sense of self. The common advice is to help your adopted child to still feel connected to their culture. Even if they themselves don't remember it.
You also have to consider that adoptees often get hit with the "you should be thankful for us/them saving you". Additionally, people who act sweet around others can be horrible human beings in private. You never know.
I'm not excusing the coworker from story 1, mind. Just saying that adoption isn't always that simple and straightforward. The expectations of feeling grateful are very harmful and denies the adoptee their own feelings.
@@Ikajo what do you mean they get hit with ''you should be thankful''? From the parents you mean? That sounds like a toxic relationship but it feels like this person doesn't have toxic parents otherwise they wouldn't be showing up to work and acting cool.
Even then though if the relationship is rocky enough for you to call them by their first names (like if they really mistreat you) then you just cut them off but the fact she doesn't means it's probably a good relationship and like yeah every relationship is complicated but so what? You don't even get some decent respect as a parent after 25 years together? Cause what? They expect you to be grateful? Wouldn't you rather wanna work on the issues stemmed from that then treat them like dirt?
If that food smelled that terrible; I don’t even want to know what it smelled like coming out the other end.
At best (and this is hopefully) like the rancid food she eats
Probably a step below getting your stomach pumped
who knows, maybe it smelled better..
Ohh gods hahhaha
@@astrophelX OHH MY HAHAHAH
Im out of breath here
My brother is so confused right now hahaha
For him im just rolling on the ground laughing as loudly as i can
Basically having a seizure.
Fun fact:
Fettucini Alfredo isn't even Italian.
It's American.
Italians basically call it "buttered noodles" and it's not something they consider "Italian Food".
I thought the sauce stuff is American. But pasta with butter and parmesan is from Italy. But it's not something you order. It's something people make when you don't feel well or something?
@@Jellina93 Pasta with butter and/or parmesan is definitely a thing in Italy. It's something that usually kids order at the restaurant (if they don't like tomato sauce). I still eat it as an adult but I do get weird looks, even from my own family
@@Jellina93 the original dish is fettuccine Al Burro, basically pasta water and parm. I believe of course I too could be wrong.
Yeah, I'm italian and I never even heard of Fettuccini Alfredo before this video... 😅
@@Jellina93
The sauce stuff being the entire point of an alfredo dish? Because it's called alfredo sauce?
Yeah, that would make it American then, right? Ffs
Story 1: I guess the coworkers parents never taught her about expiration dates are a thing. Either that or the parents are the worst cooks alive and she adopted it.
I'm dying to know what is up with the coworker eating rotten food. Like, how is she not getting sick af eating that stuff?? How does she not notice it's bad??
Eta... that story about getting the gf get own gaming pc reminds me of the guy who's gf kicked him off Spotify every morning and he loves it.... so freaking cute!
Maybe she is a hoarder? Some people hoard food, and perhaps she just wasn't throwing it out.
Some people get lucky enough to not get severely sick right away. It's like playing the lottery, you can scratch off a thousand tickets, and still not win, or buy one ticket and win it right there.
Also, some people actually eat rotten meat _on purpose_ so this ignorant coworker not noticing or caring isn't a shock to me.
@@balanc-joy9187my inlaws(I loved them dearly while they were here and miss them sorely now that they are gone) were the type to put every bit of left over in the fridge. For a long time. Looking for the butter/margine was quite the challenge but they would scrape mold off and eat stuff and not get sick. It wasn't an every day thing but I saw it several times.
My hubby is the same way.
But not me. Im hugely allergic to most molds and penicillin/penicillin mold the most.
As an exchef and because of food safety training I label and toss out to compost or chicken dated foods cuz just a whiff of mold sets off my allergies the idea of scraping mold off and still eating it sets my stomach off.
It was hard to get them to understand how deadly my allergies are cuz they just didn't get it. Bread has a spot of mold pick it off and eat the rest 🤮 nope the spores of the mold have infiltrated the whole loaf by that time.
I learned quickly to be careful of eating there.
But other than that they were lovely people.
Story 1: That has got to be one of the most unhinged s**t ever. And it was all over food that was actually bad and not some perceived racism. How the peck has the coworker not realized that her food was that rancid?
Her body's organs are probably ready to give up the ghost.
@@BlueSkyBS She should go into sword swallowing because she has a stomach of steel or something.
@@BlueSkyBS Or too occupied for her to notice at this point...
Your comment is solid but I can't get over the need you felt to censor "heck," a word that is already a censorship of hell, a word that is often used as a lighter replacement of f@©k.
Story 1 : nausea = internalized racism… okay then…..
My brain wasn’t braining at that part.
I study sociology and there is actually a form of nausea that you can have if you're not used to a specific type of food that another culture eats (for example, me, an Italian, eating insects like they do in China) but it has nothing to do with racism, more like a "not being used to this kind of food"
@Maryandflowers That's what I was thinking. Also, you can just not like an aspect about a particular culture's cuisine (the smell, the use of particular ingredients, whatever), and not liking their food is not being racist to that culture. People who act like that are reaching hard enough to pull a muscle for anything they can twist into a reason to be offended.
@@maryandflowers2703 yeah, but this isn't an instance of that case. that woman was making common foods that possibly everyone, and in this one instance definitely OP, are used to and it still was nauseatingly bad.
And it wouldn’t make sense becuz he feels nauseous with freaking tuna sandwiches and that’s a white thing
I learn that I may be racist against Indonesians or Malaysians because I hate durians.
First story: RSlash laughs so hard that he's probably crying at the same time.
Second story: RSlash wonders what it sounds like to laugh and cry at the same time.
It's nice to have a wholesome story for a change. I was worried about the GF in the second story throwing a fit over replacing her other pc or something like that because she loved it for some reason, but no, no drama, no hissy fits, no entitlement, but just good old fashion laughing, joy and happiness. OK, I guess there was drama if you count the GF laughing and crying over the new pc, but not the bad kind for a change.
It was happy crying
I had that issue years ago, I was an operations manager for a 3rd party logistics contractor at an IBM warehouse (basically we had our own office in their building and we shipped some of their cargo). The warehouse had a lot of Vietnamese immigrants working there. The food they ate smelled absolutely awful, almost everything heavily fermented (especially fish products), which I understand is part of their cuisine, but man, I lost a lot of weight during the time I was there, I could just walk into the break room when they were on lunch and lose my appetite instantly.
i love how rslash giggles about first story so much. It brings smiles to me as meowing did in last video
Kevin?
@@grymhunter2849 Meow :3
@@kitcatandsqueak Kevin how the fuck did you do that?
Hello Kevin!
🤣🤣 Kevin
that wholesome 2nd story was something I desperately needed to hear, a little ray of sunshine within what has overall been a really sh*tty week for me.
Story 3: I don't even know what Mom was trying to do. Try to bring the two together? Cause drama? What was it?
I was stationed in Korea for 2 years. Enjoyed the food every chance I got and never did it smell rotten.
Well they didn't "fermented" food that weren't supposed to be fermented. Or aka never allowed the food to rot.
Yeah, that woman isn't cooking her food, she's dumpster diving for it
I know kimchi is fermented but I'm sure it doesn't smell rancid.
I personally don't like Korean food but even I can say when it's done nicely with fresh ingredients, there's nothing wrong with it. I'm just picky. As a matter of fact, Seoul does nice Italian-style dishes. Their spaghetti carbonara was so memorable that I'm remembering it fifteen years later.
God no matter how many times I hear the first story, it always makes me laugh. It's so ridiculous that I can't help but laugh!
And the fact rSlash couldn't contain himself makes it worse! XD
rSlash couldn't help from laughing 😆
@@dracko158True. Your point shows when he can’t stop laughing every 2-5 seconds while trying to explain this to us.
Yep. OP is ridiculous.
@@wmdkitty You mean his crazy coworker, right?
Story 1: Somebody needs to call Gordon Ramsey to knock some sense into her
“IT’S FUCKING RANCID! GET OUT!!”
Nah, turn her over to Uncle Roger!
0:54 this is the reason some offices don't allow cologne or perfume, but you can have deodorant because you're not walking with a cloud of noxious fumes. I had this problem in chemistry class because of the cleaner they used, im just lucky i moved and my new school didn't use that cleaner.
1st story: NTA! I can't tolerate certain smells, & I will throw up if I don't GTFO.
PS. I absolutely love it when rSlash starts laughing & has a hard time stopping.
First story : She's either broken or has had long covid for a while and can't smell/taste anything.
Nah she was born out of the cesspool that is Twitter lol
I'm surprised her body hasn't collapsed on itself yet.
@@neffyg35 Yep she reminds me of someone on Twitter. The one that make one specific thing her personality and only discuss about that specific thing. Hypocritical and genuinely a fake person whenever you talk to them. Lastly, so self absorbed and has a victim complex.
Hell I joke with my daughter about her being broken, because she pores coke on her pizza and will eat bbq sauce on anything I will allow, there are a few things I told her no about before she got a chance ( e.i. dipping cookies in bbq sauce), but she seems absolutely normal compared to this woman.
@@mellissasweeter257 pours coke on pizza? Why?! It will get soggy! Soggy pizza is gross
anybody else kinda expect the second story to end tragically and relieved when it ended so beautifully???
I've heard the first story from both Markee and Mark Narrations, and I *still* can't get over the fact that the coworker was obviously using expired ingredients. How did she not get sick???
As another adopted Korean with white as bread parents, I profusely apologize for anyone who has to deal with someone like that.
The giggling in the 1st story has made my day. It's so funny.
Last story: She wasn't thinking anything at all. She was expecting OP to show up and then everything would be good forever. My guess is she binges herself on family dramas where families get together on holidays and make up over the course of a weekend, and somehow got it in her head that it would work out just like that. I feel bad for her, because she probably internalizes a lot of her family's issues as a failure on her part, when it belongs more with the snake of a brother and ex.
Funnily enough, I have a personal story to the rotten food story:
My great-aunt (my grandma's older sister) lives alone after her husband died, and she's starting to go off the rails mentally. She's started stockpiling incredible amounts of perishable foods for some reason. She's got like 3-5 fridges filled to the brim with half-frozen, and decomposing meats, dairy, fruits, veggies etc. She complained that the fridge is broken and melting down because there's a puddle underneath it, but it's just the rotting juices of the things inside. She had accumulated like a large garbage bag worth of rotten eggs, some of which were so rotten they litterally burst, then dried out, and only the shells remained. When my grandma (her younger sister) asked her what she was planning to do with all this, and why she kept hauling back cartfuls of groceries, spending thousands of dollars, she answered she would eat it. My grandma challenged her to eat a rotting, mouldy yogurt, and she did. She's also very paranoid, no one helps her anymore, all the taxi drivers, delivery guys, government healthcare workers avoid her like the plague, because she's throwing things at them. She's also acting like a small dog who doesn't want to go to the vet, because she's scared that if she goes to the doctor, they'll rule her mentally unwell, and remove her from the home. (Mind you, she's not fully capable of taking care of herself - e.g. she doesn't bathe because she can't - and she doesn't allow anyone in her house to help). She's a hoarder, her house stinks, everyone hates her because she's a mean crazy old lady, and refuses help she actually needs and demands you help her with her crazy ideas, like asking you to drive her to shop for more food.
It's a proper trainwreck, and she does everything in her power to resist every attempt to put her back on track.
Good morning Rslash and Rslash fans ❤
Morning!!
Good morning!
Morning
Well tecnechelly its a good night for me but still thank you so much
Morning I hope you all thrive today ✨️
Story 1: Man, I remember this story. That woman is absolutely unhinged.
I adore that second story! Also RSlash's cry-giggle was pure joy for me.
Story 1: Op stop apologising, go to HR, bring your medical records and then sue your Co worker for defamation of character.
Also "suppressed rasicm" wtf is that logic
Edit: ha ha ha karma bit her on the backside hard 🤣
Story 2 - That was the cutest thing. It's up there with rslash meowing yesterday
Facts
I'm still looking for the video where he imitates a turkey!!! If someone finds it please let me know!!!! It was as special as the meow 🤣🤣🤣❤️
First story: I'm Filipino. When I say our food is pungent, IT IS PUNGENT. I understand a lot of other people find that being asked to put away their food or eat it at a different location because it's pungent is offensive because if said maliciously, yes, it is offensive. BUT what the OP did and the way they said it in the first story is honestly so great. It was really polite. It's just natural that certain individuals are either sensitive against or aren't really used to pungent food or both. I personally wouldn't be offended if you were uncomfortable with the smell. I would've made a solution to fix the problem.
But seriously why isn't that lady in the hospital for the food she makes and eats.
My inlaws would scrape mold off things and want to eat them or eat them if we didn't stop them.
I'm really allergic to most molds especially the penicillin family we had to stress to them both that they couldn't eat stuff like that and definitely not try to feed to me.
I'm so allergic to penicillin that my mother in law was sick once and was taking penicillin she kissed my cheek and I had a reaction. Not bad enough for my epi pen but enough it scared all of us. Lol you could see lip prints on my face in red raised rash 😅
I can see why you covered the sencond story. Its nice to hear about good people who love and support their partners rather than the manipulative deadbeats we keep getting stories about.
rslash laughing his butt off will always be my favorite part of these videos, your laugh is so contagious man im laughing into my tortilla chips
Another "Bestie"! Let's gooo!
*First OP:* I'm a little scared to read along to this story. The cursed thumbnail doesn't help matters :/
I didn't know what to expect from the update, but I was _not_ expecting that plot twist! Lmfao! Did the co-worker use milk for the fettuccine Alfredo? That could explain the spoiled stench. At least OP's olfactory senses won't be under attack anymore.
I didn't expect to get educated on humans' senses of smell, but here we are! Rancid meat does make more sense than milk...
Oh, and OP was NTA.
*Second:* That's sweet. ♥ May OP and his girlfriend enjoy gaming together.
Lol at rSlash's cry-giggle (criggle?)
*Third OP:* OP's mom didn't put much thought into her plan, did she? Anywho, OP was NTA. Best of luck to him and Amara.
I really like this set of stories. They're somewhat more lighthearted than the stories in yesterday's vid sans Kevin the Cat.
Story 1: I legit NEED to know how she cooks. There’s no reason for every she cooks to smell that bad, unless she’s fermenting it for like a week. I would pay money to watch her do a cooking show.
*Story 1 OP:* I’ve heard this story before from Mark Narrations. In summary, OP gets accused of being a “racist” because her coworker eats food with expired ingredients-hence the rancid smells. So, Korean coworker used that as an attempt to frame OP as a racist because they’re just a really bad cook altogether. 😂
The "rotten food" story is absolutely insane. What a rollercoaster for OP and the folks listening to rSlash read it.
The last story is a pretty clear case of 'Favourite child' the Mother wasn't trying to get her Son'd to be friends again she was setting OP up to be the villain at her 'Favourite child's' wedding there-by turning all the guests (likely extended family) against him. It has to be that, as r/Slash said how did she think it would go? there really was no way his arriving would be a good thing when he wasn't invited and they no longer get along with each other. OP should not lower his contact with his side of the family it should be NO contact.
Petition to get rSlash to put some more r/letsnotmeet up
I second that. Also more r/murderedbywords.
I would prefer it to be a Halloween kind of upload. It fits the mood tbh
don't think CZcams will allow that
@@juliaboskamp9666 there's been a couple of videos rslash did with r/letsnotmeet (last upload was on Halloween last year) but yeah I think multiple uploads would get rslash flagged
My brother-in-law once caught a bunch of catfish which he put in the fridge and left there for about a week. He pulled it out to cook it after that time, but it had obviously gone bad. He didn't seem to notice or care, but started to cook it and stink up the entire kitchen from cooking the rotten fish. My sister told him not to eat it, and my brother who was visiting them also warned him to not eat it because he had a case of food poisoning in the past which wasn't fun at all. They finally convinced him to throw it out, but damn, if you can't smell that the fish was rotten before you cook it and how horrible it smells when you're cooking it, then trust when you have two other people telling you it smells bad. At any rate, don't leave raw fish in your fridge for a week before deciding to cook it.
I had a similar issue at work where a Peruvian guy (and by that, I mean actually born and raised Peruvian his entire life!) who always brought the grossest smelling food to the office. And I don’t mean heavily seasoned or different smelling- I mean the fish he often brought to the office genuinely smelled rotten. And it’s not like I have a low tolerance for the smell of fish either. It’s just that the seafood he usually brought to the office smelled like it went bad, and, for whatever reason, it smelled rancid even without needing to be heated up.
I never really brought it up because I always thought it was just a me issue or that the food was just different from what I was used to, but after reading this story… I kind of have to wonder if he actually was eating rotten food.
Story 1: I have a serious concern for the girl. She HAD to learn her behaviors from her parents. No way anyone would eat rotting food and hide it from her folks. Either she has a serious nose blindness/ no taste or she learned it from her parents.
The last story the family of op made my blood boiled the mother tried to reconcile her sons after the brother decide to sleep with op’s fiancée they deserve to be the stock jokes from no on and humiliated by everyone
OP's wife is a keeper. She's pretty much been the only family that he has ever needed. Screw the rest of the family, especially the mom for lying like that. What did she expect?
That's not what happened.
Not defending the family, you're just describing the events inaccurately.
Imagine if he actually came as the best man? there's like a 80% chance he would expose them for their past and that wedding would've been ruined, what a dumbass mother.
@@fanfictiondreamer7836 yeah like « why does op won’t reconcile with his brother? » well maybe because his brother slept with ex you doofus lady
@@Richard_Nickerson whoops
Dabney's impression of giggling and crying at the same time is actually very good! Well done, sir!
That first story reminds me of how I used to work with these two guys who would show up late literally every day for years. One manager tried to repremand them once, and got reprimanded himself for sending the guy home when his only excuse was "I'm always late." The guys were both hispanic, and I'm pretty sure that's the only reason they weren't fired. There were 3 other hispanics working there two, and they were the most pleasant people to work with, but those two specifically would curse in front of customers in Spanish, and the one that was married with a kid was constantly hitting on one of the female hispanic workers. Even when confronted about it by people who spoke Spanish and knew what they were saying, they just denied it. They were the absolute worst.
i like the new style of putting heartwarming stories in the middle of bad ones
I love the work Rslash puts into each daily post helps me get through school
I have had a smelly person in the office before, like the entire perfume bottle style of stink. it was even worse for me as I have a smaller allergy to some common chemicals, some of which can be found in some perfumes. Symptoms: Tearing of the eyes, fuzzy vision and a nasty itch behind the eye sockets. Luckily that gal got the hint to tone down the perfume once I made a complaint to the office managers.
Another fun fact related to Dab’s talk about smells:
Scent is the sense most directly linked to memory. The parts of the brain that process emotions and associative memory are the same ones that are activated by smells.
Every time I smell vanilla extract I remember baking cookies with my mother as a kid.
Story 1, that coworker is schizophrenic at best and bipolar at least. Either way, she's a danger to that company/business and the other employees.
I wouldn’t armchair psychologist but she certainly has something wrong lmao
Uhhh, what? How does she sound like either?
@@FederalBurroOfInvestigation I remember reading somewhere that people with schizophrenia can have strange taste in food as a side effect, and it being after covid maybe she can't smell too well to begin with? I'm not sure, I'm not her doctor, but taste and smell ARE connected so 🤷♂️
She is not schizophrenic or bipolar. Do not put that type of label on someone because it paints a bad picture of people with those mental health conditions. She's just a shitty person that got exposed to a big lie and is acting like an entitled brat.
@@silverhowler999 that's it? I'm over here thinking a bit more and am like oh, "well maybe one could see her as delusional due to the whole acting like she used to live in Korea, and was raised by her birth parents - or the whole assuming OP thought her food was Korean and that's why they didn't like the smell thing" since both can involve psychosis. They do both also have associations with mood shifts that are abnormal. Then again people lie to make themselves look better all the time, fully knowing it's not true. I can at least see it a bit more now that I've thought about it, but I still don't know that'd I'd call her either of them.
Who knows, though; I'm definitely not a psychologist, just a person human brains confuse sometimes, including my own.
As someone sensitive to smells and afraid of offending people, that first story sounds like a nightmare
That last one's a real "And how did you expect that to play out?" moment, OMG 🤣
Years ago my desk was 20' from the break room. We had a lady that would microwave her seafood leftovers about once a month. One day I wasn't feeling all that great to begin with but microwave seafood was just too much. So I put in a bag of microwave popcorn and set it for 5 minutes. Burned popcorn is not as bad as the seafood stench and it does cover it effectively.
Your laugh is infectious 😂 I am very nose sensitive since my pregnancies. I cannot even smell Ax spray men wear without getting nauseous or getting sick. 🤢🤮
Regular Mr Clean is mine
I'm not pregnant or nose sensitive (honestly I'm pretty nose blind) and axe body spray makes me nauseous. You are justified lol
just wanted to say thanks for also including sweet, wholesome stories every now and then
Omg.... I was cooking dinner listening when the part came on where you tried crying and giggling at the same time....I started busting out laughing so hard that not only did my entire family come to the kitchen thinking something was wrong but I couldn't stop laughing and almost peed my pants. No bullshit, true story, I love you r/ slash, your awesome dude.
Story 1: When I read that title I was worried I'd get grossed out, but that took more turns than a rollercoaster! As somebody who is learning to cook, I can tell you it takes work to make things smell that bad.
Story 2: "Sucky Acer Laptop"
Me watching this video on one: Confused confusing confusion.
All jokes aside, it was really nice to get a sweet wholesome story , knowing this subreddit, I half expected the girl to destroy the PC and call OP stupid.
Story 3: I kinda wish OP had gone to the wedding, that would have been a whole other "Bestof" update.
I feel for that poor guy in the first story who tasted her cooking only to puke afterwords.
R/slash being so tickled and laughing through story 1 had me laughing just bc he was! 😂
10:39:
Dabney: "You know the other thing the human nose is really good at smelling?
Me: "Bullsh*t?"
I bet if someone fed that coworker some fettuccine Alfredo that wasn't rotten for once, they'd be a much more pleasant person.
Damn it Rslash! I just nearly choked on your "you monster!" 🤣🤣
I wasn't ready for a wholesome story. i gotta admit i was pleasantly surprised.
Wow! Story 1 ended up all over the 🗺️. Glad I waited for Dabney to finish the story before making any comments.
Yeah, I'm about as white as white can be but, having a Korean as my best friend in my teenage years, I developed a taste & appreciation for Korean food - especially genuine homemade. One of my favorites was Kimchi. His mom used to tease me about making an Americanized batch since I couldn't handle the heat of her traditional recipe 😂.
That's what I thought it may have been when OP commented on smell. Before having my first experience with Kimchi, my friend told me "If you can get the smell past your nose, you'll love it". He was right. 😋
I worked with a girl who would microwave salmon every single day. It went on for nearly a month before she was fired over it. Apparently, she had been asked not to bring salmon or at least not microwave it and she refused. Our boss was very no-nonsense and she left scream crying all the way to the parking lot
Wait a minute. A Korean claiming racism for being told her food stinks is actually eating an Italian dish???!!! That's cultural appropriation, that guy should go complain to HR.
I feel like I want more info about the crazy woman in the first story. Where did she learn to cook? How is she storing food? So many questions 🤣
My aunt lives in a townhouse in São Paulo and has a neighbor of Korean heritage. My family and I lived in Brazil for several years and stayed with my aunt a lot. She told us that sometimes, her neighbor would cook something and it would smell horrible. One time while I was there, the neighbor cooked one of her special meals and it smelled like someone put a stinky foot in my face. I couldn’t escape the smell even when I went outside, so I can’t imagine sitting in a small room with that food. One day, my aunt asked her about what she liked to cook and her neighbor said that one of her specialties was burying a fish in a pot with a particular type of soil and to dig it up after a certain number of days and cook it. I think that maybe that was the inescapable smell. I went to South Korea for 2 weeks in college and I wasn’t bothered by the smell of food there at all. It sounds like the coworker was looking for a fight and bringing in the foods with the strongest aroma possible.
Every time I hear story 1 I get the feeling that the nightmare coworker's senses were completely messed up by covid.
RSlash nerding out about human smell was everything this morning 😂
You know a story is gonna be good when RSlash can't help but laugh
That first story is ABSOLUTE GOLD. As a black woman who loves to watch Worst Cooks in America, I totally called it. Kimichi would smell fermented, not spoiled.
Still, the whole office agreed it was terrible, lol.
That first story had my cackling as I had just finished watching a kdrama.
That smell after it rains is what i craved during my 1st pregnancy!!! I would literally start drooling when i smelled it lol
The giggling+crying rSlash made was straight from some horror film that has clowns.
Story 2 warmed my heart. It’s nice to hear some nice stories from time to time 😊
Theory Time: What if the coworker was "fermenting" her food but in reality it was just spoiling
can we all agree that its nice to see a wholesome story with a happy ending like the Second one?
First story sound very relatable. I would ask OP if they suffered a head injury of some kind in the past. One long term side effect of a head injury is heightened sensors (taste, slight, sound, smell, touch). And Smell is one of the hardest to get over, like the rest can become manageable due to a level of controlling the senor, but smell is not. One common smell that does come across as vomit inducing is fish, OP mentioned a tuna sandwich and I wonder if there is a connection there and they appear to be the only one who mentions the smell, not any of the coworkers
I ain't even surprised about being able to smell specific smells, I've always been overwhelmingly good at smelling sweat. So much so that after clothes were washed and dried my mom would blind told me that I could tell her who's clothes I was smelling and I can smell myself sweating long before anyone else can lol
Last story : Yeah that mom is just making everything worse.
