@@eagertea1439True

no fr bc i’m on it too much now
@@eagertea1439Reddit stories are interesting and fun, Reddit itself? Not so much.. also redditors scare me
my feed is just cats and people having a good time. it’s refreshing
I gotta disagree with your first verdict Mac 😭 the 15 y/o boys that leave their dirty shit everywhere with no consequences are the people who grow up expecting their wives to be their maids
Idk I still think its pretty extra to destroy his social circle especially when we have no idea what that kid is going through. Honestly the funniest thing to do is to just be equally as gross. Leave pads everywhere.
@suitdoggy4707 Oh I completely agree, what she did is wrong and way too far but it wasn't uncalled for. And I emphasize with her struggle of trying to make him get his shit together and making zero progress, and being frustrated with the parents for enabling it. She's a soft asshole, imo.
@suitdoggy4707 same. I agree that she's not TA overall, but her method was wrong. Brother needs to clean up after himself and the idea of the social anxiety I would have at someone seeing my place being THAT messy is just too much.
She’s the asshole for how she handled the situation, but being upset her brother isn’t cleaning his messes in a shared space is understandable
I agree but, also that kid is probably depressed and isn't telling anyone about it, I know when I start to spiral I have gone a few days without changing clothes or just living in a mess so he probably needs to talk to somebody and needs some medication
On the first one, I think the parents should step in and tell the son to clean up his mess. He's not the only one using that bathroom, so out of respect and basic human decency, he should clean up after himself.
Exactly and I would also be pissed and refuse to touch my BROTHERS nasty hairs, especially pubes.
100%
I’d bet money they’re the type of family to expect women to do everything for the men
No literally like he's leaving his public hair in the sink??? And the parents don't have a problem with it???
Right. I feel like shes definitely talked about it to them before and they don't do anything because he's "the baby." Being depressed is a genuine factor to consider, but he has to learn that his mess affects others, especially someone whom you share a bathroom with! That's just teaching him to willfully be inconsiderate. I feel like if you've never truly had to live with someone like that, you don't understand the constant and overwhelming frustration, especially when you go out of your way to not only have a clean space for yourself, but for the other person(s) involved. He's going to have a hard time in relationships. I bet their mom has to do all of the chores. They obviously have favoritism, and i know that for a fact because she's the first born daughter, and he's the "baby" son. So cringe how often that is the case. I honestly don't even feel like what she did was that bad. Having to live with someone who has no care or consideration for you and your space is very emotionally draining, and eventually, they're going to lash out in anger because that's all you've left them with. They tried being considerate, and asking nicely. They've tried being firm and stern. You get what you give, and honestly, his friends, who very well might become his roommates in a few years, deserve to see how their friend treats a shared space. Idk. I don't think it was that harsh. He's 15. He can get a learner's permit to drive, get a job, and vote in 3 years. He can start picking up after himself. That's pathetic, the amount of apathy that he has for their shared space, especially a bathroom, where one has to be a lot. Ain't no way I'm feeling bad for a 15 year old that can't wipe the pee of the seat, or get a piece of toilet paper and wipe his hair out of the sink. I was very depressed at 15, like I feel most 15 year olds are, and I was never doing nasty, inconsiderate things like that that you learn at 5 to correct.
if i saw a group of “nerdy looking boys” in “pussay patrol” shirts i would scream “INCELS” and sprint in the other direction
I wouldn't my husband wearing that, that not out of jealousy, but out of cringe
I would just start directly into their eyes and shake my head in disappointment, give ‘em a thumbs down too
No you wouldnt LMAO

Hey I want to give another perspective with the first story. A lot of times Girls are treated like a second mom while brothers are treated like babies that are helpless. We’ve all heard it “boy will be boys, boys mature slower, boys are messy etc . Y’all saying maybe the brother has depression. (Excusing harmful behavior because of mental illness is a whole other issue) but maybe he’s been raised in a way that he doesn’t see anything wrong with it. Maybe that’s why the parents don’t step in because just like Mac they believe it’s “normal”behavior. Maybe the sister has been told she has to clean while her brother continues to make the mess. Maybe the parents have put her in a position in which she feels like it’s her job to correct the behavior.
This is a great point! That’s very accurate
i was surprised no one was talking about this, its "normal" because its "normalized" for boys to act this way period. its the only way we still have 20-something year old fully grown men not knowing how to do laundry. it was like this in my house too
Omg I didn't even think of this. I agree but also if ur 15 and depressed and without a therapist ur gonna be kinda fucked. I'm 19 and depressed. I was in his place once. But also as a sister with a younger brother, it's hard to believe he isn't the favorite 💀
100% agree
i have 4 brothers and i felt for her immediately 😭 she was rightfully angry, girls are so often parentified in families while boys will always be boys
That first one is a everyone sucks situation. She was SO wrong for how she handled it, but yeah her brother is fucking disgusting and needs to learn to clean up after himself before he grows up to seek out a bang maid.
Edit: also I'm a white girl who loves me some ranch but ranch and chinese food? OH HELL NO. That sounds nasty.
I get it's not applicable in every situation but he very well could have depression
@@pho_is_not_interesting its not in this situation. Its just another situation of allowing boys to be nasty and look for a maid in their future wife
@@narutosraman a guy can have depression and be an asshole though.
this could be a depressed boy that is being an asshole for not thinking of his sister when it comes to their shared bathroom. she didn't mind his room, but the fact that she can't use her own bathroom.
still, she shouldn't have humiliated her brother online, cause thats cyberbullying and illegal immoral shit that gets people jailed and fined.
the parents are the biggest assholes for not addressing the messy bathroom tbh. like, they should be checking on their son cause this doesn't sound healthy and they shouldn't have ignored the daughter in her distress. they only got involved when it became serious.
@@nicomoist5336 I see what you’re saying but men have been being messy assholes for years and been coddled by their parents without depression and even if he does have it, it’s not an excuse you know that right? She may have went too far but SHE is by far the least of the asshole in the situation. Men need to be held accountable and if it takes it this far (which really isn’t that far at all) for them to get it oh well, that’s their fault for making it come to that.
I work as a life insurance salesman. A 5mo's life insurance costs less than $10 a month. And it's main purpose is that when the kid is an adult they automatically qualify for 75k in life insurance at lowest possible cost no matter how their health turns out between being 5mo to later in life. It's less than $10 a month to guarantee they'll be able to get it later in life even if they get diagnosed with disqualifying illnesses.
Also there's a cash value to life insurance. When kid turns 18 they'll get a good chunk of what you paid into it back for college.
For kids, life insurance is about securing their future not their death. It lowers their bills in the future and gives them some money for college
good shit to know thank you
I was gonna say that redditor's response clearly showed they had no idea what they were talking about. "How is it investing for your daughter?" Uh actually if you can afford the life insurance it's a GREAT investment, arguably better than a trust fund. My parents gave me life insurance when I was an infant, I took over the payments when I became an adult, and now I feel secure enough that there is a rainy day fund, help for education or a even a house, and/or later passing on inheritance. The earlier you can get insurance, the better!
ETA: I didn't read the OP replies to the post, redditor comment is valid IF the policy turns out to be a scam, which is unfortunately possible esp these days. Early life insurance only works if it's...yknow...legit.
@@bch7905 There are actually rating systems for life insurance. If you are buying life insurance you can check the people who inspect the companies yearly and find out if the company has a good rating or not. And the BBB is also a good place to check to avoid getting scammed
A lot of people shouldn't have kids. It reminds me of a post I seen online re recently where they bought a $150 thing on Amazon, chose to do payment plan where they paid like $25 a month, and they were like "it raised by credit!!!!" Like....yeah....y'all really do just live life on autopilot. 😂
That is so interesting to learn! Thank you!
I think the life insurance on the baby is actually smart ... my parents did it for me as a child and after some time the insurance itself started paying for itself and would have saved me ever buying any (if my dad hadnt let it laps). We are low income and it was just for the off chance of death. which would have been over 10k funeral expense during emotionally traumatic event
I love parents who start a life insurance policy early.
Not only do they usually set their kids up for success, by the time they're an adult it will pay for itself, and you'll be setting up their future family in worst case scenarios.
I agree, it’s not sinister to have life insurance for your kids; it’s planning for the worst-case scenario, like most insurance. Still, people need to look into insurance plans carefully because there are some scammers out there.
Haven't finished the video yet but how does life insurance "pay for itself" if you don't die?
Also 10K funeral expenses for a baby?
No One in my family would pay that even if they had the insurance.
@@FrancisR420Do you know the cost of a funeral? The plot alone can be up to $5k.
@@FrancisR420A “cost effective” funeral is like 10K. And, regardless of a baby or an adult, does the family not deserve to have a proper funeral for a loved one.
Also, certain policies are similar to investments. After time you would be able to pull money out of your policy, but again, it depends on your policy.
Just listened to the first story and this is totally a fucked up situation on all ends. Is she wrong for taking action? No. She deserves a clean space and that’s nasty.
Did she choose the correct action? Absolutely not. She definitely should have handled it better.
Honestly I’m shocked it didn’t solve the problem though
Alright I’m on the last story: I think life insurance for a baby is a good idea honestly. She’s right, death can strike at any moment. It’s brutal, yes, but honestly? It’s awesome to be prepared. You don’t HOPE your 5 month old is going to die soon, but in the even that they do, that money is going to be incredibly helpful, especially if they do end up having to plan an early funeral. No parent wants to bury their child, and that money can help them focus of grieving rather than the money to pay for their funeral.
Story time: one of my friends died in a car accident, she was 18. They had to make multiple fundraisers to pay for it. They couldn’t even grieve properly because they had to focus on paying for everything.
I don’t think it’s a bad idea to have life insurance from the start. It’s LIFE insurance, not death insurance 🤷♀️
Honestly on the first one I see why she did what she did but like that's messy as shit
1.) It didn’t solve the problem because we have no idea why the brother is being this dirty. Is it careless or is something actually going on with him? 2.) Punishments like this hardly ever works to correct behavior and possibly can make it worse.
But the main reason why people are so weirded out by the life insurance thing is because why is that the first thing the woman thinks of when thinking about her child possibly dying really early on?? Most people are not worried about money when their child literally dies, they’re worried about funeral arrangements, breaking the news to family and friends, etc. For a lot of people (including myself) it comes off as if she only cares about money.
And also (like it’s said in the video), there are better ways to invest in your child’s future than a fucking life insurance. On another note actually, how do you even explain that to the life insurance companies? Do you just go “ah yes we’d like to apply our literal 5 month old kid for life insurance”
@@CanadianPineapplesandPizza Money hungry because she wants to prepare for something that will inevitably happen in the future?? If you’re not a parent you would not understand, especially being a young mother. She said in her post life insurance isn’t just used for situations like death.
As the eldest daughter with a younger brother I really felt for the first girl, she handled it wrong but like I get it. I was expected to clean up after everyone in my family, it drove me nuts and Mac's assertion that she should've cleaned up after him was a bad take.
I also think the Gerber Life Plan was life insurance?
First one wasn't handled right, but the brother was definitely in the wrong. When you're sharing a space with someone, you need to clean up behind yourself. The ranch and pesto on rice thing sounds disgusting.
In regards for the first situation, I completely understand why the girl is fed up. If my brother treated our bathroom like that I would be really pissed off as well. She summed it up pretty well - how his bedroom looks is none of her business, but the bathroom is her business since they share it. He does need to be taught a lesson and learn how disgusting his behaviour truly is. But the way that his sister went about trying to teach him a lesson wasn’t right. She kinda was the asshole, but so was her brother.
And where are the parents????
Why weren’t they saying anything about the bathroom 😭😭😭
The bedroom still honestly counts as her business too tbh since dirty dishes will attract bugs and mice into the home cuz of the food plus the possibility for mold. I'm living a similar situation with my brother and while it may have not been the best way to go about it you have to take into perspective her brother clearly isn't listening to her, her parents aren't doing anything, and she seemingly has no power in the household so the only way reasonably would be to show it to people who's opinions he does care about. Sucks for him but ultimately it's his own fault.
Bruh, the Gerber Grow Up Plan is amazing, it can be used for a college fund, to help pay for a down-payment on a house, and even as life insurance if your child dies. It can also be upgraded when the child becomes an adult, allowing them to maintain their insurance throughout their life. It's probably the best option out there unless you got lawyer money.
Shoot, wish my parents invested.
Same my parents used mine to help pay bills so that we could keep our house. Life insurance is a great idea for families.
@@HarrypAhsokaT1231 I pay for the Gerber plan for both of my nephews, and soon for my niece that's coming in January. Easily one of the best investments you can make as a parent, uncle/aunt, grandparent, or just anyone who has a new baby/child in their life.
As an Asian, I would've went ballistic if I saw someone put ranch/pesto on their food during a traditional dinner that's supposed to be honoring our roots 😂 poster was not the asshole, their father just has the wrong idea at the wrong time. It's only fine to mix foods if you respect where they came from originally
My rule is if you made it you can eat how you want. If I made it, you eat it how I made it (unless your allergic). I wont force you to eat it but I will not watch my hard work be "cummed on".
@@Sashakawaiicatbc ketchup is universal, BUT RANCH???
idk man, food is food. long as someone is not forcing ranch on anyone else, i think one can ruin one's food however they like lmao
but it's a traditional dinner. Chinese New Year. Yes, food is food, but you gotta respect where the food is from and the history behind it. If it were me and someone fucked up my shit with their bland ass additions, I'm kicking them out sue me. 🤷🏾@@cridow
@@jadebayoba7073who cares. Same sh*t bro. If anything, it’s even better

Honestly, while OP is the AH her parents are the problem here. I have three siblings and we currently only have one bathroom. One bathroom shared by SIX PEOPLE.
If my older brother (23) leaves his facial hair in the sink he gets his told off. If I (21) leave my floss on the sink I get told off. If anyone leaves used razors lying around they get told off. If the youngest (14) leaves his clothes on the floor he gets told off.
I don't care if your kids are teens or full ass adults they don't get to dirty up a shared living space. Period. Be the parent.
What if the 15-year-old has depression? Get. Him. Help. Once again this is on the parents for not recognising their son's filth as an issue.
First story let me tell you I'm 32 years old and i have to clean up after my 70 year old dad who REFUSES to flush when he pees, or even lift the damn toilet seat. uses my razors, my shampoo, my soap effectively everything that is in teh bathroom and leaves it a damn mess. I've been taking care of this man since i was 10, and my parents have been married for almost 50 years now and he's been this way since the beginning. If you dont snip that behavior in the bud when they're young. they aint never gonna grow out of it. so I dont blame the sister.
So happy to see people give other perspectives to the first story cause she has every right to a clean space. Also I left a 17 due to a similar situation. My family treated me like the 2nd mom, and wanted me to clean up the house after 4 boys and 4 adults because I am going to a mother one day. They felt it was my job to clean. I defiantly get where she is coming from.
The parents were in the wrong for allowing the brother to be messy.
Ranch on RICE?
Straight to jail. That sounds disgusting.
Eh, not really. In this case, it was just super disrespectful. If you're into dump pot, and casserole sort of situations, try mixing some chicken, broccoli, bacon, ranch, melted cream cheese, and cheddar through some hot buttered rice. Season it up however you want. Admittedly, getting ranch seasoning is better than getting ranch dressing, but both work. It's better than it has any business being.
@@user-ox7uj9tm1wEven as someone in the trenches, I wouldn't even eat that. Just put it on the side like a normal person.
@@kreyull5109ok no one is forcing you anyways😂
just over a minute in and mac is assuring us he's not a size queen. never change.
aw HELL NAH i hard disagree with the first one. 💀 I'm the youngest and only daughter of the family with 2 older brothers. While I luckily always had my own room, any space that i've had to share with them over a decade has been affected by their horrible habits to not clean up. It's been to the point where we've had roaches accumulating over the house because dirty dishes and trash is left everywhere. I understand the world itself has bigger problems, but whenever i tell you I have a whole side of unpacked trauma and anger from all of their weight of not doing BARE MINIMUM CHORES put onto me because i'm the girl??? It's deadass a miracle i didn't burn the house down idk. It is every human being's responsibility to clean up after themselves. Even with mental illness like yes i have bad weeks where it gets pretty messy, but that's why you get help or find a way to regulate bare minimum self care so it never gets to be a real issue.
TLDR I can't be mad at miss girl for exposing him idk i think more boys should be held accountable for their shit
THIS!!!
I just don't believe somebodies Social Life is.. An appopriate consequence? Especially at the age these Actual Children are at hell it could make the problem worse, I'm sorry for what you went through but exposing somebodies messy home life to their friends potentially Embarassing them or just ruining their social life entirely? especially in the internet age? I don't believe it's an appropriate consequence like that kids issues could get worse due to worsening mental health due to mockery from his peers, I agree his parents should do something but the sister just.. potentially destroying her brothers social life is just WAYY to far.
unpacked trauma???
Ok, but that first girl is nta. To have to spend extra time cleaning/sanitising a communal family space sucks and it sounds like the parents are putting that on her and thats awful.
15 is damn old enough to clean up after yourself, or the parents should be doing it and giving repercussions for his inaction, not putting it on their 16 year old to clean up after their son especially with such initiate hygiene issues.
If he's putting in the effort to take care of his personal hygiene but not the aftermath which affects others thats not mental health concerns, thats a lazy kid who hasn't been taught better and expects others to clean his messes.
THIS
16 is also old enough to know ruining his social life is an asshole move as well. We’re giving the girl a pass but not the guy? They both old enough to know better
mac's advice: never turn 16
or 18
or just anything below 20
Damn it, I’m screwed then 😔
That's so true
i’m 16 i hate it help me
@@thedolllovettnah enjoy it and ignore stuck up oldies😭 although if i could go back tk 16 id get my license then so definitely do that
Got one more year till I'm taking that advice
I will say though that in many homes girls get held to different standards than boys. Boys often receive less discipline than girls. I've experienced this and know many people who have experienced this.
The girl posting his mess on social media was definitely wrong tho.
as a white person, ranch on rice makes me want to vomit. i dont think its that hes white, it think its that he needs help 💀
You’ve been my favorite guest on Smosh!!
Speaking as a person with sensory issues from autism that extremely limit my food options and basically NO melanin I cannot IMAGINE bringing MY OWN SAUCES AND FUCKING UP THE FAMILY MEAL OF MY PARTNER WHO IS FROM ANOTHER CULTURE GOOD LORD JUST TAKE A FEW BITES LIKE MAC SAID that is HORRIFYING to me
I was listening like 😮 how is he NOT EMBARRASSED
People live in there own world
I disagree with the first one. If sister was down to her last resort, then yeah, pressure from his social circle might be the ONLY THING that would change his behavior. Sometimes for men all it takes is another MAN telling them that they’re doing something wrong and suddenly they’ll change. That being said, it doesn’t look like his behavior changed, so he may have some mental health issues.
@nyx587 and she specifically mentioned his friends MADE FUN OF HIM for it. That's not accountability.
@nyx587 she was mean and went about it the wrong way but at the same time i dont blame her like... her parents punished her for posting his mess but never stepped in to make him clean his own mess? sounds like a future manchild rather than someone with depression...and this is coming from someone with severe depression
@nyx587 It’s common courtesy to pick up after yourself when you’re sharing a space. The way she handled it wasn’t right but he’s still the ah. And clearly he still didn’t learn his lesson so the parents need to step in.
@@jollyrancher3888Yeah me at my most depressed meant that I wasn’t shaving, or cleaning myself regularly so there was no mess to clean up because I wasn’t mentally well enough to even make a mess. This boy is a lazy ass.
@@jollyrancher3888"She was mean" Why didn't the parents intervene?? why didn't they get on his ass about it if you're a kid with parents and a messy ass sibling and responsibility of acting like the 2nd parent to said sibling I probably snap and be "Mean" to
Mac is the only authority I would trust with an AITA because his no filter means he’s be 10000000000000% up front always lmao😊
On the 1st one everyone sucks. I think the parents suck the most though. If they had stepped up and acted as parents she wouldn't have needed to go nuclear. When you share space, you clean up after yourself. Male, female, nonbinary, any age, it does not matter. You might help the little ones, but it is the rule of a healthy society. By doing nothing they are forcing her to live in filth, take on unhealthy gender roles, or to fight back. She fought back, but being 16, didn’t choose the best way. Parents are absolutely the AHs here though.
3rd story: i am a very picky eater. When i went to Indonesia as a teen i did struggle to find food that was not too spicy for my wimpy tongue. I ate what i could though, was grateful, and apologized profusely for being a wimp. I was desperate not to offend. I still probably could have done better, but i never would have just poured store bought American sauce on the food. That feels only a tiny step up from spitting on it.
4th story: i am pro life insurance. I didn't die, but i became chronically ill at 12. I can't imagine how expensive life insurance would be for me now at 37. I can't even afford to check. I would make sure it was a reputable plan, but if i could afford it, i would invest in a life insurance policy for my baby 1000%.
Agree tbh, parents should be the ones taking action. Wtf else is she supposed to do, reinforce his nasty behavior?
The only one I can personally speak on is the life insurance one (my dad’s been teaching life insurance for 20+ years). Idk where the poster is from, but in my country, it’s cheaper to give your kids life insurance when they’re young before they have any issues that aging brings. My parents got life insurance on my brother and I when we were toddlers and it was stupid how cheap it was because we didn’t have any pre-existing conditions and aren’t usually what insurance companies are looking to cover. So it was only a couple bucks a month and, at least with the policy I have, the price didn’t grow as I aged, so I don’t have to pay some egregious amount of money every month.
I know people who have life insurance at like 18-21. When you have a parent that depends on you because of their health, it makes sense to make sure that they have support in case something happens and you can no longer be there for them. The intention of life insurance is to make sure that if someone dies and they have people who depend on them to live, that those people aren't completely ruined by losing the person they depended on, the way people used to get absolutely ruined when the breadwinner of the family died. So kids don't need life insurance unless their parent depends on them either for physical aid or financially.
Maybe on the surface that should be the case, but dying in modern times is far more expensive than a lot of people can afford. When a sudden unexpected death is going to put thousands of dollars worth of strain on a family, it makes sense to ensure that everyone has a life insurance policy
I mean, id say to keep up on that. Kids should so funerals can be paid, but also, when they get older, they then already have life insurance and won't have to worry. All the parents(good ones) will just have to give custody to the kids when they are older.
Also life insurance payments for an infant is significantly cheaper than for an adult, you save a lot of money early on. I've had it since I was a baby and I took over the payments when I turned 19. I now have the option to cash out some if I need it while I'm living or save until I'm old and I can pass it on as inheritance or funeral costs. And yes it can also be used for education!
I’m a white person who was watching this while eating food and when he started talking about how white people love ranch I started eyeing the ranch I had on my food… You read me for filth LMAOOO
Tbh I only eat ranch when there's chicken. Or ketchup. Both go hard, but ketchup takes the W
I agree with the life insurance thing it sounds like a good idea. Death CAN happen anytime, and funerals are super expensive. Sounds like Dad needs to stop being a baby cause he is mad his wife is "always right" cause she has some common sense

@@dimitrinite9412 HELP WHY DID TONGUE TRICKS CRACK ME UP
the first verdict is 100% NTA, the girl is being treated as a surrogate mother for this boy by his parents and by mac now ig, she reacted in a childish way because she IS a child and shouldnt have to tell her own brother to clean up for himself, thats the parent's job!!! favoritism/infantilization of brothers over sisters is a HUGE problem & creates boys who are completely dependent on a mother-figure & girls that think the world is on her shoulders.
While technically she's correct about him taking responsibility, what she did with his friends and social media is an absolutely AH thing to do
Basically yeah. She is in the COMPLETE right to be mad at it. She was however mad wrong about the method. The problem is frankly she has no real answer.
she has the right to be upset over a mess in a shared space, but she went about it in the wrong way. not to mention, this kind of messiness isn't normal, there's likely something going on
I agree with the replies on this comment. Me and my sisters have a similar experience with our brother. While yes she has the right to be mad, she however does not have the right to share this private matter to anyone who isn't involve or isn't family.
@@jackieelizabeth8614how else was she supposed to handle it then? I can see the reasoning behind it if maybe she thought pressure from people who's opinions he clearly cared about more mattered. Her parents aren't listening to her. Her brother won't listen to her. She literally has no other way to try and get his ass into gear except maybe throwing a huge fit in which case her parents would have more than likely reacted in a similar fashion to this. She's nta plain and simple. If anyone's the asshole here it's the brother and some asshole towards the friends for just making fun of him and not actually holding him accountable too. Last ditch efforts are meant to be harsh but it's his own fault tbh
the first story i’d say is an “everyone sucks here” verdict. i don’t think posting the snapchat story should’ve been the first response, but that family is teaching that boy he doesn’t need to clean up after himself. more likely, they’re teaching him that a woman will always be there to clean up his mess. doing himself and any future partners of his a huge disservice
THIS
the way mac used the stock footage feels like those kids books that are like “I have a dog 🐶 and i gave him a bone 🦴 when i got home 🏡.”
There are 2 types of AITA.
"Am I the a**hole for being tortured for my entire life by horrible favoritism a** parents?"
"Am I the a*hole for setting a child on fire?"
The only time I touch reddit is to see gender affirming surgery pictures (healed fully or new) because I literally can't find them anywhere else.
Seriously I struggled so bad trying to find a single medical website that had surgery pictures, just drawings. So in that sense, reddit is kinda cool for that.
This video is messy. Sister was wrong to post it on snap but I would have torn my older brothers a new one if they left filth in shared spaces, being a year younger isnt an excuse for him and he wears the same clothes for 4 days? Parents need to parent.
Halloween boyfriend, it doesnt matter that he isn't gonna get girls with the costume. It matters that the costume is disrespectful to his relationship and thats a valid complaint.
As a fellow 26-year-old, this video makes me feel seen. These are all my exact reactions reading AITAH threads.
Imma disagree with the first bc if my brother was fuckin being stinky asf i would totally humiliate him, the parents didn't do shit so she had to take matters into her own hands.
I genuinely don’t understand why the parents didn’t step in before hand and make him clean his shit
I get it could be depression but leaving your piss and pubes out when someone else uses that space is unsanitary and rude. I guess she felt that was her only option since her parents let him do it
Honestly, I believe the problem is the parent if the sibling resorts to that because the other was disrespectful, like if the idea of going to the parent didn't come up, that mean she tried but nothing happen
(Even tough what she did was a bit over board, like it could have end up worse than just him complaning 💀)
@@melanopygushonestly as someone with mental health issues it doesn't seem like that. Depression affects everything so the fact that he's still clearly capable of taking care of his physical hygiene without complaint but not his space shows that he just doesn't want to clean up after himself. People with depression typically find it hard to clean after themselves AND personal hygiene
Cool video, My relationship of 5 years ended a month ago. The love of my life decided to leave me, I really love her so much I can’t stop thinking about her, I’ve tried my very best to get her back in my life, but to no avail, I’m frustrated, I don’t see my life with anyone else. I’ve done my best to get rid of the thoughts of her, but I can’t, I don’t know why I’m saying this here, I really miss her and just can’t stop thinking about her.
Amazing, how did you get a spiritual counsellor, and how do i reach her?
Thank you for this valuable information, i just looked her up now online. impressive.
I'll be honest, as a parent, that 16 year old is not an AH. Those parents need to step in and handle the brother. When one of my kids refuses to clean, we handle that shit and we do it fast. We all have to contribute around here.
Getting life insurance for a baby isn't really about getting the payout in the event that they die (in most cases). It's about securing a low rate and ensuring benefits that don't have to do with death (like early payouts if you become disabled). The older you are, the more likely you are to have health issues that will either limit benefits, skyrocket price, or completely disqualify you.
That said, it all depends on the plan she was looking at. There are a lot of scam policies.
Many people have life insurance on their kids. It is nice to have for funeral expenses so you can go all out for your child one last time.
Also that first one, sounds more like a male getting away with discussing behavior and the girl just having to deal with it. I wonder if they are from the Midwest. Sounds very typical for around here.
I’m sure that Mac is going to have a hay day with this Subreddit.
You get life insurance on you kids when they are unborn too. My mom started one for my kid
When they are born, set them up for a credit card too, don’t abuse it, just small payments to set them up with some sort of credit when they get older
Let's be honest, ranch and pesto on rice is worse than prison food. 😭
Mac really saw a trend form months ago and decided to make a video about it now ? Go off king 👑👑
Edit: "There are people dieing" ayyy thruther words have not been spoken since
I always thought life Insurance was to help with funeral costs and support for family left behind.
The ranch with the rice actually broke something in my spirit 😭
It's honestly crazy to find out that we're the same age, Mac. I definitely feel you on not wanting to/not feeling ready to have kids part. It's crazy seeing everyone from high-school have 2-3 kids already, and just wonder wtf happened there. Times a crazy thing 🤷
shayne topp from icarly is fuming rn
I get the bathroom ine. Idk why I wasn ALWAYS the one to clean the bathrooms during chore days, hut I did and have 3 guys living with me at the time. My mom and I were the only girls(ofc) so I would make that toilet sparkle!. Tell me why then everyfreaking time thered be CRUSTY A$$ PISS ALL OVER THE TOILET!?!?! thankfully my bf sitis down when peeing most of the time and I make sure HE cleans the toilet(unless I do). Im tired of cleaning after mens shit and them not having the decentcy to make less messes.....😐 If i were to have a daughter id still have my bf or, son(if I have one) to clean the bathroom cause man its fuking gross to have your head near a piss covered toilet.
And I thought pineapple on Pizza was bad. Now we got Ranch on Rice?
pineapple on pizza deserves better 🥲
Listen I’ll fuck with some pineapple on pizza, that’s my right as a ‘murican/cross to bear. But rice on ranch, that’s *vile*
As someone who used to work in life insurance, let me tell you.. It's really cheap when you're young. It's based on age. Mine is like $7 a month. It's smart for everyone to have just in case.
BIIIIIIIITCH! Im on my couch, cat on my lap, laptop to the side. When you flashbacked to yourself 5 years ago my cat deadass hissed and ran out of the room. Im cryyyyyying x___x
Talking of messy brothers, when I went to visit my brother in university, we went to check if he'd been cleaning his bathroom (he has his own ensuite) and the toilet was spewing black??? And the sink didn't drain??? And the water coming out of the shower was mouldy and black??????? So yes, I do agree, brothers can be messy and not clean their toilets that spew an unknown black liquid, but they can still be good at showing love (except he's not good at that either)
Edit for typos: I'm honestly glad my mom had life insurance for me and my siblings. As soon as we were of age, she handed our policies over to us to use how we wanted. I'd already been paying on my own life insurance, so I used mine to buy new furniture. And it was, in fact, Gerber. Yes, they are in business still
This is what everyone should do
Bro I feel for the girl in the first story, I share a bathroom with my older brother (he’s literally 20) and he leaves his hair in the sink after shaving too. I complained to my parents about it but “he’s an adult, talk to him about it”, but I’ve talked to him about it and he just complains that I leave my hair in the shower. I used to forget to clean it out but the issue was brought to me, so I made a concious effort to change my habit (you know, like an adult) and now I don’t leave hair in the bathroom. He does though.
I think thw first one the girl handled it wrong. Its tough but if the kid is depressed then posting his messes around is probably going to make it worse. she probably should have done something big that would force the parents to actually do their job and care for their son
Speaking as someone who's dealt with depression it seriously doesn't sound like he's depressed. He has friends (which is typically hard for people with depression to maintain) and he's able to take care of his personal hygiene without issue, if anything he's doing more for his hygiene than what's typically expected. He's just not picking up after himself and that screams entitled more than depressed. I agree with what she did and he should've gotten punished even after that he's 15 not 5.
😂😂😂😂 “This sound like some stupid ass adult shit” took me outttt if that ain’t the realest shit ever 😂😂
My mom put life insurance on all my kids as they were born. Now I pay those premiums. The thing is, anything can happen and u don't want to have to struggle with that as well as the death of a child.
10:52 That man did not like Asian food just Asian women.
Someone made all that food by scratch. YOU DO NOT DISRESPECT THE ELDERS!
Bring your own food at that point. If you gonna be rude do the path that’s the least disrespectful.
If someone wants ranch on their food just let them lmao. They're not forcing you to put ranch on it too 😭😭 I don't understand why having food preferences is considered rude. He's not saying the way he eats it is the right and only way to eat it, that would be rude. Hes not forcing people to eat it the way he does, that would be rude.
If I made someone a meal and they added something they liked to it, I wouldn't be mad or upset. Imo it's kinda childish to get mad that some people like foods certain ways. Even if you find it gross, keep it to yourself. They're not forcing you to eat it like them, and they're not saying the way they eat it is the right way.
My in-laws are Southeast Asian and I would never *dream* of tainting their delicious food with ranch or pesto or any other bs. The AUDACITY.
on the life insurance for a baby thing, it makes sense bc the younger you are the cheaper the policy is. ive had a policy since i was 1yo and i pay $10/month
Life insurance is a really good idea. My best friend's dad died when we were 10, and the money paid for everything. Because he'd had the policy for so long, there was extra money to take care of the kids and their mental health afterwards. It also paid for a car that my friend now had in her name and to her, its a piece of him.
The random stock videos are so funny to me 😭 Like I just imagine Mac sitting there, editing this video and looking up stock videos for every single word he says.
Mac talking about r/MassiveC*ck… made me feel seen as a human being 🥹
As a person that had to share a bathroom with a gross straight brother who made the bathroom smell like feet after taking a bath. She was not the asshole
I love when you are on smosh so im gonna watch this video like 400 times expect my views
My mom signed me up for a life insurance policy at about 5 or 6 months. I'm 28 now and that policy is worth SO MUCH. Now I'm a mom, and whenever I pass my kid is set for life. Its an investment.
Besides the point, but your frequent appearences on Smosh are everything. You are one of the reasons for this Smosh Golden Age Revival. Every video with Mac is a banger.
THE STOCK VIDEOS I HATE UUUUU😭😭😭😭
mac i swear to god you are literally so fun to watch, i laugh so hard with all your videos so i always look forward to them, I relate to you so well at about 5 years in now when I see a video pop up it's like chilling with an old friend again after while :')
Insurance story, I can't relate with the insurance in us. My mama got me and my brother life and health insurance the moment we got out of her womb. She's an insurance agent and just knew which insurance we needed and we were so glad she did it. My mama has asthma and my papa has high blood pressure, so looking at their health condition it was needed. I was epileptic when I was a toddler and had to spend half of my childhood in hospital. The insurance my mama took saved me.
Edit: I just remember that in some companies they won't sell you health insurance policy without you already purchasing life insurance policy. And also, the younger the client usually the cheaper the cost because you can choose a longer payment plan, some companies also limit their clients age usually 65 max, and they also can reject you if you or your family history have chronic illnesses. Educational insurance is usually just a saving plan, so basically insurance companies just help you to save money by planning when you're supposed to save some money.
Feeling so seen, the only reason I go on Reddit is to sort by most controversial.
I really love seeing you on smosh. I hope y'all collab more in the future.
insurance rep over here, Mac✋🏾 Its actually ALOT cheaper the younger you are. Its very common misconception to wait till you need it when you are older. Its actually the worse time to get it because its more expensive the older we get. Its supposed to be a death benefit. Garber is still around but insurance companies provide cheaper options. YES, MAC do more reddit stories on your channel. I love your energy SO much🥲🥲
Mac! I love you sm you bring me so much happiness, thank you!
No way. That first one is disgusting. I would air him out too.
Wait until Mac finds out about the person who brought ranch to the restaurant during a date.
The start was such a jumpscare
As an older sister to a younger brother I get the ick. But I didn’t use snapchat and my parents did something about it.
OMG R U THE GUY FROM SMOSH??😍😍😍😤💯
hey gays, first time I've been ten minutes early to one of mac's videos :D
EDIT: BIL is brother in law- depending on the situation there's 9/10 times gonna be an abbreviation like that on the reddit post (EX: EK > entitled kid, MIL > mother in law-)
I think carrying around sauce is weird
I am so here for your energy thank you Smosh for opening my eyes to Mac’s greatness 😂❤️
Mac!!! I love that you’re doing this format. So happy to see a vid from you
Also “BIL” is brother in law.
Sometimes you’ll see “MIL” as well, mother in law. Bunch of abbreviations ❤ you Mac, Ty for your videos.
it sounds like i might be in the minority but i actually agree that OP is _an_ asshole in the first story, but not necessarily _the only_ asshole. i’m not as disgusting in shared spaces as that kid (thank god) but my room is a DISASTER and i am DEEPLY ashamed of it. i think i would have a serious breakdown if my sibling did some shit like that.
in my defense, the whole issue is mostly caused by serious mental illness and executive dysfunction due to developmental disabilities. i’ve struggled with it for years, but it really hasn’t gotten much better in that time - if anything, i think it’s been worse lately than at almost any other point in my life. unfortunately, shaming me for it has not worked, _and it never will._ shame is simply not enough to cure me of all my mental issues, no matter how much of it anyone does ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
edit: to be clear, leaving piss and pubes all over the place is just nasty; i’m not even gonna _try_ to make excuses for that shit 🙄 beyond that, though, i don’t think we have enough information about the brother to make any real judgments. i’d like to hear his side of things before being too harsh on either of them - which probably isn’t going to happen because, for better or worse, the internet is a place of (relative) anonymity, which means that this girl’s brother will most likely never even know that his sister posted her personal complaints on reddit.
the only person i’d ever trust to scrutinize the morality of my decisions
Not to be dark but considering the amount of school shootings especially in elementary schools, getting life insurance for an infant isn’t completely out of the norm. Like we’re gonna have to start being fr. And as someone who’s parent died and was the only one of legal age for the insurance policy to pay for the everything …. It’s extremely expensive.
I love ur content mac! Its literally so entertaining!!!
Also life insurance as infant is a great idea. I am chronically and my health issues started soon after birth if my grandmother hadn't gotten me life insurance right after I was born I would never qualify. Now my loved ones can rest easy about paying for my death.
When I saw you on there I was like, he should just do this by HIMSELF lmfao youre funny enough and ive been a fan for like 5yrs so its fun to see you do trends
The life insurance I get bc like.. sudden infant death is a real thing and when babies die parents lose the ability to grieve when they have to scramble finances together to make sure their baby gets a burial- or worse they wouldn't be able to afford a good burial. If you can get it it's good for them and it'll be there in case anything happens
The reason for the life insurance is you can essentially use it as a loan/asset later in life depending on the kind you get so starting her baby off on a policy like that is amazing
