Hello and welcome to Smosh Reads Reddit Stories.

I'm Shane.

And today's episode is a special one.

We are doing a special birthday episode for our good friend, Spencer Agnew.

And it's also my birthday.

And it's also my birthday.

Happy birthday, old chap.

So I'm here with Spencer and Amanda.

Thank you for being here.

Chorus is number one favorite, right?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Fair.

Great.

So, Spencer, because it's your birthday, we decided to give you the gift that everyone wants on their birthday, curated Reddit stories.

Just for you.

So, when we hear these Reddit stories, I'm going to think Spencer really likes this story.

Yeah, I'm very curious what qualifies as a like Spencer Agnew themed story.

Kiana picked a lot of these, and Kiana knows you very well.

You're effed.

So, we'll see.

I wonder how we'll have to piece together why it's a Spencer story.

I was asked, like, hey, are there any stories you would want to have read like that you guys could talk about?

And all the ones I was like thinking of were like these, all these ones from like 2011 or 2012 that were just like, they're horrendous.

Oh, and I think like, I think like people who know these classics like will know these classics, but it's just like, it's truly like they're not even funny.

People forget the internet.

Do we have a classic in here?

I don't think we have any of the

kid with the broken arms.

The dark ages of, oh,

i won't even know or the the dog one i know what you're talking about yeah yeah no you're talking about nightmare fuel yes

these are like creepy pastas

they're real no the internet used to be somehow in many ways worse really

the stories that you would read were worse we fixed reddit you guys fixed reddit oh okay good it's give and take for my birthday i want the coconut story and the boy with no arms no you don't no you don't the boy with broken arms wanted.

No.

I want that one.

No.

I want a birthday one.

Spencer, before we started filming, you were talking about your birthday, and you were talking about that you think you might go bald.

You had a nightmare.

I had a nightmare where I was going bald.

I was in an elevator and I kept trying to go up and the elevator was going down and I didn't know my room.

key.

And you were going bald.

And I was and I was going bald every time I had less and less hair.

You were going to hell.

And I was going to hell.

Yeah.

And then I woke up and I couldn't remember how old I was.

I was like, because I was like, oh, it's my birthday episode.

And I was like, how old am I?

And I think I'm going to be 34.

Wow.

Wow.

Cool.

That's really cool.

Yeah.

You also have so much hair.

I really think it could go.

Would you guys still love me?

Of course.

Yeah, man.

Wait, I remember when I first worked here, you had like a shaved head, I'm pretty sure.

And what did you think?

It looked really good.

I loved it.

Thank you.

But it was dyed.

It was dyed like blonde, right?

Yeah.

I loved it.

So if you want to go that way, I think the move is if you go bald you just grow a big beard true

I mean like I think I has a big beard I'm not growing up I kind of wanted like the the receding hairline like you know because like all the like kind of what Walt and Goggins it was cool it was just like you know like Jack Nicholson or all those like I was like why isn't my hair like that like it was like oh they're well you're a child yeah

I think his hair looked like that when he was young Jack Nicholson no uh Walt and Goggins yes yeah Walton Goggins I think he's just always been like yeah it's probably same with jack nicholson actually yeah so it's not on the cards for you because you got a flash

sorry dude sarah man i can't wait to read this reddit story about spencer okay yeah here are some spencer themed stories First one comes from Am I the Asshole?

Am I the asshole for not being thrilled about my girlfriend's birthday gift to me?

In parentheses, lingerie.

This is so you.

This is so you, man.

I don't know how much I want to dox myself.

Like,

read the story, then I'll talk about my

thong.

Just kidding.

Girlfriend and I have been dating for a year, and we are both 20.

There's not much story here.

Last weekend was my birthday.

My girlfriend came over and said her present was a surprise.

She went into another room and came out in a lingerie set that she said was new.

She looked hot.

We fooled around.

That's that.

Okay.

Afterwards, she asked what I thought of my present.

I was a bit confused, and this is when she inferred that the lingerie was my present.

This rubbed me wrong, and it felt like a lazy excuse for me.

I was just waiting for

waiting.

This rubbed me wrong, and it felt like a lazy excuse for a gift from someone I've been dating for a year.

To me, she bought something for herself and said it was a gift to me.

I might have been an asshole for this comment.

So, if we break up, do I get to keep that and give it to whoever I date next?

I hate that.

Is this you?

I would fucking never say that.

I know you wouldn't.

You wouldn't.

He says this comment rubbed her the wrong way, and she called me an asshole.

I'm also upset because I took her out to a fancy dinner for her birthday that cost over $200.

That's no small cost for a 20-year-old college student without a job.

Oh my God.

Dude.

Okay,

first of all, not the asshole.

First of all, king.

I've never been one for like lingerie, if that makes sense.

I hate to be like, oh, I've been like surprised, but it's always just like,

this is going to be the most malady thing I've ever said, but it's kind of just like, dude, if it's like a big t-shirt, like,

I don't care, like, as long as you're cozy, like, I've never been like, oh, yeah, this is like, yeah, like lingerie.

It feels like, I don't know, not, not really appealing to me.

It's fair.

That's fair.

But like,

the way he handled this was like,

well, because

you can also, if it's not for you, that's fine, but you can also appreciate the effort that went into it.

Yeah, it was an experience.

Yeah.

That's what she gave him.

I can't imagine any guy he talks to being like, yeah, I'm on your side, bro.

It's like, no, this is.

Yeah,

can I keep that laundry and then give it to someone else?

It's like, the laundry isn't for you to keep.

It's for you to see your girlfriend in a hot, like situation.

And if she feels hot in it, then like that, like good, like, then encourage that.

Yeah.

It'll happen again for you, maybe.

Not for this guy.

That's probably the worst.

It's one of the worst things he could have said.

Yeah.

I don't know how you say something so bad.

Yeah, for him to like try and turn that on her.

So if you were disappointed,

disappointed is a, like, disappointed is a strong word.

Yeah.

I just don't like,

it doesn't do much for me.

Right.

That's fine.

But you wouldn't say that.

You'd be like, that's great.

Thank you.

Yeah, in that inflection.

In that context.

Hey, that's awesome.

Plenty of times for your birthday, you get gifts that you're not actually a fan of, but you still can appreciate that someone went out of the way.

And this was just so unappreciative.

I thought this story was going to go that she gave him lingerie.

And when he ended up,

I was like, whoa, cool.

Yeah.

Also, horrible thing to say of, and can I give it to whoever I date next?

He is inferring that they're going to break up and that he's going to die.

That's crazy.

You bought her the $200 dinner.

And also, like,

buy me the dinner.

Don't remind me.

Like, I didn't know there were strings attached to this dinner.

Like, you want to buy me a $200 dinner?

That's on you, but don't remind me.

Laundry is expensive, too.

I'm pretty sure it can be really good.

It could be over $100.

And it's multiple use.

I'm like a dinner.

And also, it's...

Leftovers.

Sorry.

Yeah.

My bad.

I also, this is another situation where I just kind of don't like the guy based on how he's writing.

Because he's just like, she looked hot.

We fooled around.

That's that.

I'm like, okay, buddy.

all right man whenever i hear fooled around like i don't think of sex like i i feel like they like they like tumbled down the stairs i think they like

they like made out like they they like they they they like did like hand stuff okay fooling around is like hand stuff oh interesting it's like this yeah yeah it's like i feel like fooled around could just cover any variation i know but if it's like hey what if we fool around like i don't know it feels very old school it's very old school it's very 50s sounding to me fooled around and fell in love yeah don't sing it.

It happens.

I didn't.

I also think it's sad whenever people just quantify gifts based on, like, well, I got you a $200 gift.

You owe me.

It's like, don't get me gifts.

This is why I don't like...

Like, yes, I have a list of all the money I've ever spent on women, but

that's so gross.

Could you imagine?

Do you?

No.

Yeah, keeping score is definitely a bad move.

The wallet keeps the score.

Comments.

Comments, does it fit you?

Did you think fast enough?

Got his ass.

Hey, man.

Someone said, Owen's the asshole, but it sounds like both of you could work on your communication.

From her perspective, she might see being wrapped up in nice lingerie as a thoughtful and intimate gift, and many people would agree.

However, it's clear that you have a different view, which is perfectly valid.

Having expectations is normal, but the key is to communicate them clearly.

That's the first step.

OP said, I think it could be part of the present, but it being the whole thing seemed selfish and pretty thoughtless, in my opinion.

Okay, I'm not on

that.

Therapist Reddit commenters just crack me up.

They're like, hey, guys, communication is key.

And it's like, no, bitch, she was an enterie.

Okay.

Just let her

go.

Just hell yeah.

Hey, let's communicate.

Yeah.

Someone said, dude, your girlfriend just gave you the five-star treatment.

Would you rather have a $25 Applebee's gift card?

OP says, I disagree that I got a five-star treatment.

Having sex with your partner isn't a present.

Whoa!

It's

Get me.

I would say it's the greatest gift of all.

Dude, you're lucky she's having sex with you, okay?

Someone said, you're the asshole and a dumbass.

Honestly, your girlfriend gave you an experience as your gift.

OP said, how is it different than the experience I get daily outside of fabric placement?

Okay, this guy needs to just be single.

Someone says, I really don't see how your gift was any different to hers.

Surely you guys eat together all the time.

So going to a fancy restaurant is just upping the experience a few notches.

She did the exact same thing for you with the lingerie.

Nice lingerie can easily cost a few hundred dollars, and she probably spent a lot of time getting ready and tried to make it a fun, special experience.

Sexy lingerie is not something you really wear for yourself, you wear it for your partner.

Your reaction to what she tried to do must have hurt her feelings a lot.

Given your age, I think immaturity like that is probably forgivable, but given that she's the same age, I'm guessing she may have a similarly immature reaction.

Hopefully, you guys can make up, but I seriously doubt you'll be seeing lingerie on her again.

Oh, no.

Yeah, I agree.

I think a fancy dinner is very comparable because it's like a once in a while.

Oh, you also get to eat there.

Yeah.

You know?

You haven't bite of my steak.

I don't.

That's crazy.

I see it.

I'm, hey, good pick.

That's a good pick.

Good pick, team.

It's a good pick.

This is an experience for me, guys.

This is my birthday present.

I love it.

I wanted Shane to come out and launch her.

Could you imagine?

Fooling around.

What if we get away?

Fooling around.

That's that.

Fooled around.

That's that.

Well, at the end, we'll rate which one's the most Spencer of them.

Yeah.

That one's pretty Spencer.

Pretty Spencer.

This one feels low on Spencer's.

You think it's a lower, like a four on the Spencer's?

I think there is Spencer within the story.

There's Spencer within the story, not enjoying the lingerie, but not being a dick about it.

Exactly.

Thank you.

Okay.

Okay, our next story is a Today I fucked up.

Yeah.

Mm-hmm.

What?

Today's thing for me to do.

You do it all the time?

No.

Sorry.

He felt bad immediately.

Today I fucked up.

Okay, what?

Stop!

I can't handle it.

Actually, that makes me feel so much anxiety.

I was like, no one better talk.

No one better talk.

Today I fucked up by buying a knockoff Lego set that my kids should not play with.

Okay,

okay, this is sounding Spencer.

What?

Spencer-coded.

I have kids.

My kids and I enjoy playing with Legos.

Well, they like playing.

I just like building cool stuff.

We've made a house, city, a zoo, etc.

The other day, I was browsing on an app known for cheap knockoffs, and because Legos are expensive, I often purchase the knockoff sets from said app.

Of course, like all shopping apps, the algorithm shows me things I would be interested in based on things I've looked at before.

And on this day, it was showing me lots of cool block sets.

There was a cool treehouse, a little cafe, a park, and an awesome vintage motorhome.

You know the kind, 70s, tan, brown, orange, and yellow.

I loved it.

I bought the not Lego motorhome and it was delivered today.

I was so excited and as soon as dinner was over I proceeded to build the motorhome with the help of one of my kids.

Only one because one is older now and doesn't often care to build anymore and my youngest doesn't like the building part just playing with the things that I build.

So here I was happily putting together my awesome vintage motorhome.

I get the frame done and then I start working on the inside.

As I get further along, I notice that the inside of the motorhome does not look like a normal motorhome.

There's no bed, no table, and bench seats.

No bathroom.

There's a lot of jugs and crates and bottles, though.

Now I think it's important that I stop right here and explain something.

I don't watch TV.

I used to, but over the last decade, I have had trouble being able to just sit and get into a show or movie.

I'm aware of the popular shows, but I couldn't tell you any details about them.

Like Game of Thrones, everybody would talk about it.

I have a general idea about what it's about, but I couldn't tell you specifics.

Another show like this is Breaking Bad.

I was gonna say, I was gonna- Yep, this is my prediction.

Never saw it.

They built the Winnebago.

Yeah.

I know it's about a drug dealer, but that's pretty much the extent of it.

So back to tonight.

I'm looking at this strange motorhome and thinking, what the heck is wrong with this thing?

And then I look at the box.

The picture on the app I ordered it from didn't show the box, didn't mention anything about the show or anything that would be telling.

And to be honest, I didn't really pay any attention to the box when I opened it.

The box says, break bad.

That's when it hit me.

Is this from that TV show, Breaking Bad?

Isn't that a show about a drug dealer?

No.

No, no, no, no, no.

Please tell me I did not buy my kids a Lego set from a show about drug dealers.

So I googled Breaking Bad Motor Home.

And oh my friends, if you watch the show, you no doubt know that it is much worse than that.

Google promptly displayed a picture of a 1986 Fleetwood bounder that looked an awful lot like the one that I've been building this evening.

And I read the description.

The awesome vintage motorhome that I just built for my kids is the RV from Breaking Bad, in which Walter White and Jesse Pinkman cooked methamphetamine.

Yes, my friends, you read that right.

I bought my kids a Lego meth lab.

Wow, here it is.

That looks awesome.

That looks really cool.

Dude,

we need to get this.

I love that.

This is so stage.

Wow, and I can see on the inside, and

they've got the blue meth in there.

They've got the whole setup.

There's nothing better than someone who writes, well, my friends.

Well, my friends.

And then, no, no, no, no.

Oh, no, no, no.

Well, my friends.

It says break bad RV.

Just like, don't tell the kids meth was cooked.

Just don't build the meth lab on the inside.

Yeah.

Keep it empty on the inside.

Or say it's, because in the show, they used actual rock candy for the meth.

Say it's rock candy.

Oh, really?

I love it.

It's blue rock candy.

It's so fun.

They must have been eating that all the time.

I bet they were.

Whoa.

I love rock candy.

Something Breaking Bad doesn't really do is like explore.

Well,

it's definitely not the focus of the show.

It's not.

It's not.

Like methodic.

It's the dealing part.

Yeah.

Yeah.

It's the cooking and dealing part.

I never saw Breaking Bad, and trust me, I know.

I need to.

But I knew immediately, I was like, like, oh, this is definitely from Breaking Bad.

Yeah.

Break Bad.

It's the most famous RV.

It's, yeah.

So did he stop building it?

I don't know.

What happened?

I imagine he probably.

I'm trying to remember the fate of it.

It's very easy to build it and not finish the inside.

Cute.

I'm trying to remember the fate of the RV in the show.

I don't remember.

I think it's gone like by season one or season two.

No, they definitely have it for a while.

Do they?

Yeah.

Do you love Breaking Bad?

Is this kind of a story?

It's you.

It's probably my favorite show of all time.

It's a really, really it's it is

probably the best.

It's kind of the best show ever.

It's like Soprano's the Wire Breaking Bad, right?

That's what

shit.

I guess I need to watch it.

Oh, you'd love it.

It's so good.

My flex, when I first moved out to LA, it was when Breaking Bad was doing their big finale.

It was like the finale of Breaking Bad, and they had it at the Hollywood Forever Cemetery.

And they drove the

RV out, and the whole cast got out of the RV.

It was crazy.

Damn.

Holy war the cemetery movies are the best.

It's such a great show and what I feel like doesn't get talked about a lot is it's it's actually like a really really dark comedy.

Like it's so funny.

Walter is just he's the stupidest smart guy.

Smart guy of all time.

Like it's just really funny.

I look I can sit here and talk about it all day.

Some of the best character arcs of all time.

All right, I'll watch it.

Is there an update?

No.

Those kids got addicted to methanding.

Some comments.

Now begins the fun project of taking out the meth lab parts and restoring it to a normal motor home.

Someone said thought this was going to be a Today I fucked up and gave my kids lead poisoning by using GP manufactured things post.

Someone said the six plus made me laugh way too hard.

It does say it says eight plus on the box.

We didn't even talk about like the ramifications of like Lego dupes and stuff like that.

What are the ramifications of Lego dupes?

I mean it's just like I mean you're I think you're getting what you're paying for ultimately with like it's a risk.

Yeah like there's just certain things you, like,

I think you're going to notice a huge difference in quality.

Just like the weights.

They're not actual Lego.

I wonder if people take Legos and like curate their own box.

So it's a different thing.

Do you have a lot of Legos?

Oh, yeah.

This dude Legos.

So your whole room is Lego, so like you can't move too much or else it'll all fall.

What's your best Lego set?

I have like all, they did like a Jurassic Park series a couple years ago for like, like, for like the old movie.

And I want to like build all those together.

What is it?

The entrance?

They have, they have,

it's like the visitor center.

It's like the inside of the visitor center.

It's a lot of iconic scene.

I'll do a Lego tour one day.

Really?

I could.

I would love that.

If we ever have the space here at Smosh, it'd be so sick to build the Death Star.

Yeah.

Is that what you want to do?

Is that what you want to do?

Where would we do that?

We'd need a lot of space and we'd need like a dozen people to build it.

It's like,

hey, we could spend a whole week doing it.

Almost like Mr.

Beast type video.

Yeah.

Can we build the Death Star in an hour?

Oh my God.

That's what they tried to do in Return of the Jedi.

They tried.

Yeah, someone wrote a comment in the tone of those old Lego City ads.

A man has overdosed on methamphetamine in Lego City.

Quick, build the activated charcoal and load it into the launcher in all new meth lab RV Lego scent this guy was so happy he was stupid

should I voice record and redditors in the comments if they can think of some reference you can think of a joke if they got a pun that's what they're can you voice record in a reddit comment but could you imagine it would be over No, they actually, nobody would because anonymity is what they all crave.

Okay.

That's the other thing.

I love the Lego boxes so much, so I end up not building a lot because I just like having the box.

I'm not like

Wow.

Wow.

Wow.

All right.

Our next story.

My boyfriend, a 40-year-old man, wants me, 30-year-old woman, to only watch movies with him.

Hi, all.

I've been with my boyfriend for almost six years, and he gets angry/slash-upset anytime I want to watch a movie with someone else, friend or family.

To give some context, he loves movies.

He watches everything from rom-com, action, to drama.

So I've respected his wishes and watched every movie he's wanted to watch with him for the past six years.

I've turned down watching movies with friends and family numerous times simply because he wants to watch it with me first.

I do love and enjoy watching movies in theaters with him.

It's one of our favorite pastimes, but I think it's incredibly suffocating that he takes issue with me watching a single movie without him.

For example, he's abroad in another country right now and a female friend invited me to a movie screening.

Knowing that he would take issue with me going, I reached out to him to talk about it, but I'm starting to feel resentful I have to do this to appease him or feel guilty for going even though he wouldn't be here to go with me anyway.

He is not one to compromise.

And frankly, he's never shown that he cares about how I feel about the matter.

What do I do or say to him to improve the situation?

Goodbye.

Yeah, literally.

Look, I love...

I know.

I love movies.

I love movies.

I love watching movies with a partner.

You know, it's one of life's great, great, great, fooling around.

Fooling around.

Fooling around

watching a movie.

Fooling around and watching a movie.

Netflix and truly sit and watch the movie yeah

netflix and watch

how about we try that uh uh eyes are on the movie uh but you would never

oh god no you wouldn't i also think you enjoy other people watching movies and having experiences and then telling you about it yeah like talking about the movie like on their own So you would never be like this.

Right?

Right.

Yeah.

No, I mean, that's like...

Well, also having like a partner who like like would only, it's like, hey, you can't do that without me.

That's like suffocating.

That would be like suffocating for...

I don't see how that's not suffocating for him too, where it's like, I want, don't you want your partner to like do stuff without you?

A lot of people don't.

I guess not.

That is insane to me because...

I love watching movies with my partner, but there are friends that I love.

You got like a whole movie group.

I have a movie group.

I have two different movie groups.

I have one Film Wives movie group where it's five girls and we talk the entire movie and that's the only time I let it happen.

And then and we cast each other in it and I always play the guy who's a douchebag.

And then I have two dude friends that we go see movies and it's always like the fucked up horror movies

that we watch together and that's the best.

I would never be with someone who took that away from me.

No, I don't understand the concept of being like, you're not allowed ever.

There's like plenty of times where there's a specific movie where it's like, oh, we got to stay.

Especially if you watch like the series together.

Like I get being upset if like they tell like, hey, we've watched like all the Mission Impossible movies together.

And the new one's coming out.

It's like, oh, I'm seeing that with like blah, blah, blah.

Like I would, I would be like, I agree.

And series.

Like, if you're away, you kind of have an unspoken thing.

If you started the series together,

absolutely.

And if you watch an episode without them, it kind of sucks.

It does suck.

Yeah.

But it's not like...

I think it's so like

you can if you if you're like hey do you mind if I watch this without you and like I'll re-watch it with you maybe

like because I know some people are okay with re-watching stuff.

Yeah, yeah.

Yeah, absolutely.

But this is

a lot.

I wonder what she wanted to see.

Oh, yeah.

With her friend.

And this was posted two days ago and we're in May right now.

So this could be Final Destination.

Could be Mission Impossible.

What else would it be?

Champion Centers.

It could be a lot of things.

I mean, it could be any movie.

She's saying like any movie.

I'm saying if Ethan Hunt asked you to trust him one last time, what would you say?

I would say absolutely.

Let's go.

Also, though, like, you know, if you get invited to a screening, that's such a cool opportunity.

You don't want to take that away from someone.

Right.

If Courtney got invited to a really cool screening for a movie that I was stoked to see, I'd be like, well, just go.

And then, like, just like you said.

Just go and take me.

Just go and take me.

And I'll go too.

And I'll go.

Oh, it could be Lilo and Stitch.

There's a million movies.

Okay, so her

irrelevant.

No.

Opinion.

Discarding.

But I think it's sad that she's now in a place where she's like, oh, she's worried what he thinks.

Like, you don't ever want to be in that place.

Also, like, you need to watch movies with other people because it's a different vibe.

Also, he's abroad.

He's probably cheating on her.

Yeah, exactly.

He's sleeping with another person.

He's probably watching other movies.

He's probably seeing other movies.

He's probably seeing French films.

Oh, my God.

He's watching, like, Before Sunset, your favorite series.

Yeah.

He's probably watching Lilo and Stitch.

I've never seen Lilo and Stitch.

Neither have I.

What?

Really?

We're older.

We're older.

Lil' Stitch came out forever ago.

We're a while.

We were too old.

Yeah, too old, bud.

Spencer, I think you were like 12.

No, I was too old to

fall in the love.

A bunch of comments here.

Are you positive that he is 40?

Because no.

Someone said he's dating 10 years younger for a reason.

Someone said this is an absolutely bonkers rule.

It's one thing to say that there's this very specific movie he wants to watch with you, which I think is reasonable, but he's way past that.

Someone said, is this the only weirdly controlling insecure thing about him, or are there others?

Good question.

Because this is not a you thing to fix.

There's nothing that you can say to him that will cause this particular idiosyncrasy of his to go away.

Regardless of whether this is the only weird controlling thing he does or not, you have a right to do things as an adult and he doesn't have to like it.

But if his reaction to things that he doesn't like is over the top, then that's a big problem.

Still, if you haven't communicated how you're feeling about all of this to him, then he can't know and adjust accordingly.

So the first step would be to say something like, I know you prefer it when we watch new movies together, but I'm feeling resentful about that because it means I don't have a choice about who I see movies with.

Since you're away, I'm going to see a movie with my friend and I need that to be okay.

How he reacts to that will tell you a lot about how the next conversation with him needs to go.

I like when Reddit advice is just like, say you're resentful.

I'm saying you're part of it.

Okay, like maybe couch the language like

is there one therapist going around all the Reddit sources and going like, well, I've got to clock in and clock out.

Yeah, I like the problem.

The problem is like what works in, like the specific wording that works for one person may not work for another.

I also, it's like, it sounds good when you're typing it out on Reddit.

Yeah.

Say that out loud.

I'm feeling resentful when you, it's just there's not.

There's a lot of like, I don't think this fits in that category, but we've talked about like there's a lot of like living out fantasies of like, well, this sounds right as I'm typing it.

Yeah, it's like, here's what you do in a perfect world where no one would like feel offended or anything it's also like no one would feel attacked the unfortunate thing with with Reddit with all of these stories is like we're hearing about a person through just a small little paragraph about a person we've never met before you meet this guy and you might go oh don't ever say that maybe his parents died in watching a movie with someone else

yeah I mean look

But regardless, she has to set this boundary.

And if he's not okay with that, then...

Well, here's the thing.

They've been together six years.

She's been letting it go on for six years this is going to be really hard to set the boundary especially when he's away i guarantee he's going to be like who do you who are you going to see yeah at this movie like it's really hard to immediately set a boundary i think the most important part though of this comment is that is this the only weird controlling insecure thing about him yes yeah i have a feeling this is part of many things it's also music Hey, so you didn't you didn't listen to anything on the ride into work today, did you?

Yeah, I want to make sure you're going to be out of town.

Make sure you don't consume any media.

I want it to be silent.

That's such a weird form of control that he has over her is that he doesn't want her to have any experiences

without him.

And yet he's fucking abroad with someone with a broad.

Yeah, with a broad with a broad.

Abroad with a broad.

So one time I was reading Reddit on my computer at work and Shane came over and grabbed the laptop and started.

He was like,

he's like, you can't read the and he started reading.

He started reading the stories to me.

I was like, I have to.

I have to read them.

And he was like, I have to read these.

That's really controlling.

You can't control Spencer's experience.

I have to make sure that nobody in this office is.

Hey, you made me, what was the word they used?

I'm feeling resentful.

He's feeling resentful right now, and I'm his therapist.

I never, okay, so another, I always see like pictures on on Twitter and and and Reddit of like people like jumping around the couch and Reddit stories.

I've never done that jumping around the couch.

It'll be like Tommy.

He's like on the wall.

Oh, Tommy.

People will be like, Spider-Man.

They'll be like up on on the I'm like yeah we don't we don't need to do that it's all in our face um final comment just go stop asking for permission if he makes a fuss afterwards tell him to drop it or you're leaving the relationship tell her to drop it

drop it hey uh drop it hey drop it hey freaking drop it my favorite thing about reddit is that ever all the advice is always just break up it's just like oh

and little and

a lot of them it actually does fit so i can't i can't hate too much hey hey drop it i don't know if this is like breakup territory but it is like

it's breakup territory if the communication and boundary setting doesn't work.

Well, if he's like, no, you can never.

I don't think she needs to say that she's resentful, but she does need to be like, hey, I got to be able to go see movies without you.

Hey, man.

Hey, drop it.

Leland Stitcher.

Fucking drop it.

I'm resentful as fuck.

Drop it.

Drop it.

I'm resentful.

Hey, I fucking hate you.

I hope the movie's good.

I hope so too.

Okay, our next story.

Am I the asshole for wanting to divorce my husband because he asked if he could get a blowjob from a sex worker?

This is so Spencer coded.

Did we talk about this?

Did we?

This is so Spencer coded.

Spencer also

true.

This is birthday coded, though.

Because it starts off.

Today is my birthday.

And it's also my birthday.

It's my birthday.

Today is my birthday.

So me and my husband, a 25-year-old man, decided to go out for lunch.

The day was going well and everything.

Seemed normal.

On the way back home in the car, he asked me if I would mind if he hired a sex worker to blow him, because according to him, my blowjob skills are not that good.

I asked him if he was serious, and he just kept asking if I would mind it.

I got upset at him, obviously, and when he noticed I was upset, he said I was a hypocrite and was making drama and that I wanted to ruin the day, etc.

I feel hurt and am thinking about divorcing him.

He just said I was being a jerk for no reason.

Am I overreacting?

It's not like he cheated.

Am I the asshole?

Can I say something that might be weird?

I feel like

if your partner's not giving a good blowjob, why don't you guys work on it together?

That was the most normal thing you could have done.

I fucking said, dude.

I thought you were going to be like, oh, dude, yeah, just like, let him have this.

Sometimes I say comments and people are like, what the hell?

But, like, why don't you guys just watch a little porn?

Be like, this is what I like.

This is what I don't like.

Do you want to try it?

And he can do it to you, too.

Not all men are good at that.

Like, just talk about it.

I don't know.

It's well, I think it's very sad that drop it.

Drop it.

Friggin' drop it.

This is like a form of communication that I feel like a lot of people lack, which is just like, we feel so uncomfortable with sex.

We throw it in the fucking room.

So like, once, it's like you're married to this person.

Like, you guys should be able to talk about anything.

You're married.

You cannot even talk about this.

And I get really frustrated with like fixed mindset views of like, oh, these are your blowjob skills.

That's permanent.

That's what you're like.

Yeah, it's done.

You can't talk about it.

You can't level your skills up through training.

Yeah, just train a little bit.

But to get a blowjob from a sex worker is so like

that's zero to a million.

Yeah, and then to be like, you're over.

Dude, what if the sex worker was bad at it?

And I, hey, hey, it could happen.

Yeah.

Actually, that's that's a pro move.

If she hires a sex worker for him, but she's like, give a really bad blowjob.

Give a really bad blowjob.

And then,

oh, I guess you're the best.

But it's like, this guy's being, to me, this guy literally wants a blowjob from another person, and he's just gaslighting her.

Him being like, oh, you're a jerk.

I think we all got confused because it's...

Because the way he's talking to her makes it feel like he's...

You're talking to me like it's your birthday.

But it's my birthday.

It is her birthday.

And he's asking for a blowjob from a sex worker on her birthday.

And all she asked for was lunch.

Well, she's probably got so much other things to like celebrate.

This might be a good time to just bring it up.

Okay, this is So Spencer's story.

Wow.

Where do they go to lunch?

Yeah, that's.

Where?

For some reason, I am really hung up on where you're really hung up because it, like, what is a birthday lunch for you?

You know, it's not good enough.

No, it's like a sandwich and a salad, which I love.

I love that for lunch, but like, it's her birthday.

But you know what I love more?

A blowjob for a sex worker.

Yeah, I thought so.

I knew this is your story.

Married at 25 and already asking for a blowjob from a sex worker.

It only gets that.

You have bigger problems.

I'm going to be a Redditor here and say they need to break up.

Yeah.

She needs to divorce him fast.

Lawyer up.

Lawyer up.

Get out of here.

Hit the gym.

That used to be the meta on Reddit.

Like every, it'd be like, lawyer up.

Like, anytime there was any relationship drama, like, all that constants would be like, you need to lawyer up, hit the gym, and like, and divorce her.

It was like, it was like this.

It always hit the gym.

And then it became so bastardized.

They were like, like, hit the lawyer, Jim up.

It was some fun hit.

Hit the lawyer.

Yeah.

Oh, I love Reddit humor.

The comments, the way I would get the ick and never touch his wiener again.

Yeah, I

got the ick from that comment.

Yeah, I never touch his wiener again.

Do not call a penis a wiener.

I'm so sorry.

Your wiener skills are not epic.

Could you imagine if she was like, bring out that wiener?

Dude.

Just don't.

I'm getting the ick right now.

I love how it's it's like, these are Spencer stories, and it's a bunch of the most ungrateful guys.

Yeah.

And Kiana helped choose these.

Kiana now, a bunch of ungrateful guys who hate sex.

Yeah, and love Legos.

Legos and movies and zero sex.

It's the chosen.

I know.

That's it.

I think they come with love.

Yeah, not this one.

Yeah, maybe not this one.

Someone said, not the asshole.

Gotta love the hypocrite comment after.

Unfortunately, it seems you didn't marry a keeper.

OP left a comment.

OP left a comment in here going, I tried really hard to make sure he was the one too.

I saw him go through his grandfather's death and I accidentally damaged his car.

And he was super nice about it and didn't scream or belittle me.

The only area we had problems was our sex life because I had some health issues and it killed my libido.

But when that was managed, he was great.

He knew about my past and that one of my relationships was long distance.

So I wasn't very experienced with sex, but I actually thought our sex life was okay.

But I'm very vanilla but he never complained

yeah they never talked about it she just need like they just need to like work on it together man they they do i don't know if i at this stage hearing this information believe he's someone who also makes me really sad when it's like oh he didn't flip out when i it's like oh his grandpa died he didn't hurt me he didn't yeah exactly it's like that's so he's not awful that's not there's there's good men

i thought he was the one because he wasn't really mean to me yeah oh

Obviously, there is the conversation of like couples having conversations about opening a relationship.

This, though, hits different territory for me where it's like, can I get a blowjob from a sex worker because you're bad at it?

Yeah.

And I'm like, that, you can't move past that.

I think he thought in his head that that like made sense.

I think so.

And it was like, well, this is going to make sense.

This is like...

stupidity on another level or like a complete lack of like

I don't know like social awareness I don't know what you'd use to describe what he lacks, but it's

immaturity mean.

And then afterwards to go, you're overreacting.

You're being a hypocrite.

You're all these things.

It's like, okay.

I don't believe what you're saying that he's nice.

He's probably recovering from the death of his grandfather.

Still.

This is how he takes it.

There's nothing wrong with wanting something good from your partner, but it's like, that is.

He's just like coloring it as something else.

Yeah.

Other comments?

my guess is he's gauging your reaction to something he's already done

Spencer is that you is this you vibes?

That's such a crazy assumption like I don't maybe they're right, but that's just like a dude.

He's cheated on you.

He's been cheating on you for his whole life.

He's done.

He hates you.

Like I don't know.

That's like it's a possibility.

It is a possibility.

But you can't

just jump to that.

Yeah.

It's a possibility.

I don't think in my eyes it matters.

I think the comment enough

the focus focus of the, yeah.

The comment enough is grounds.

It's like, could he have done worse?

Possibly.

It's just like,

only a Sith deals in absolutes kind of vibe.

But it's just like, it's like someone will post something on Reddit.

They'd be like, oh, like, yeah, like, my wife came home late last night.

And the comments will just be like, dude, she's cheating on you.

And it's just like, yeah.

Perhaps not.

Yeah.

Perhaps.

This can't be real.

Nobody is dumb enough to ask his wife if he can get a BJ from a sex worker on her birthday.

Oh my God.

If it is real, you are an absolute saint for not cutting off his nuts right there and then.

Someone commented underneath that saying, eh, I'm in the process of a divorce from a man who asked me five days after I had given birth vaginally with a first-degree tear if he could have a mistress because he couldn't wait six weeks to have sex with me.

Same man also told me that the only reason he'd ever come during a blowjob was because he was imagining that I was one of his employees while I was giving him a blowjob.

Some people are just shitholes.

Sir, the facts

working.

One of your employees is giving you a vote up.

I don't know why that makes me laugh.

It's so, it's some things are so messy.

So your meeting starts in 10 minutes.

I can't.

What?

Hello?

First of all, I don't want to hear about the tear.

What the fuck is a first-degree tear?

I'm going to have to research this all night.

I don't know.

I don't know.

Oh, no.

This is bad.

Guys never heard of jerking off.

off.

I know.

And you tell him, and he's like, what?

He's like, you can do what?

To my solo.

Solo.

To my solo?

Hans?

Yeah, why are you relying on just one other person?

Take care of yourself.

Yeah.

Oh, my God.

Oh, God.

God, these are all your stories.

These are your stories.

These are my stories.

Let's tell these stories.

All right, our next story comes from the Too Hot Takes subreddit.

Shout out to Morgan over at at Too Hot Takes.

Morgan!

My roommate doesn't want to live with me again after I watched Jurassic Park movies while his girlfriend was at our apartment.

Huh?

My roommate doesn't want to live with me again after I watch Jurassic Park movies while his girlfriend was at our apartment.

Okay.

Okay.

I, a 22-year-old man, am finishing up my last year of college and live with my best friend, a 23-year-old man.

He has a girlfriend who's 20 that he's been with for about six months.

She's pretty shy, and whenever she's at our apartment, they are pretty much always just hanging out in my friend's room.

They will very rarely hang out in common areas for extended periods of time.

So suffice to say that even though I've known her for half a year, I know very little about her and wouldn't say I know her very well personally.

This past weekend I was scrolling through Netflix to find something to put on in the background while I study for finals.

I found The Land Before Time, which was one of my favorite movies growing up because my older brother used to always play it for me when he babysat me.

So I turned it on and just kind of had it on.

My roommate and his girlfriend came by and my roommate noticed the movie I was watching.

He commented that he hasn't seen it in years since he was a kid.

He asked his girlfriend if she's ever seen it and she said no.

She said that she wasn't allowed to watch any movies with dinosaurs because her religion doesn't believe in them and believe that their fossils were put in the ground by God as a test.

Needless to say, I was caught off guard.

Of course,

I've never heard that the fossils were put there by God.

As a test.

I've heard that the fossils are fake, but not that they were put there by God.

That's that's well, that's another level.

That's a dumb test.

Of course, I had a million questions, but for some reason, my brain went towards dinosaur movies instead of her religion.

I asked if she'd ever seen any of the Jurassic Park movies, and she said no.

I told her some of them are really good and suggested we have a dinosaur movie marathon.

She said she doesn't want to watch any movie that goes against her beliefs.

I just said okay and didn't push it and they quickly retreated back to my roommate's room.

Flip it around.

But it did kind of make me want to watch Jurassic Park movies.

Got me fucking think about Jurassic Park, bro.

That's awesome.

I have the first two on Blu-ray, so I found those and started watching them.

Neither my roommate nor his girlfriend came out of the room much of the rest of the day, except to get something from the kitchen or go to the bathroom.

After I finished the second movie, I left to meet up with some friends.

I stayed at a friend's place that night after drinking, and when I got back to my place, my roommate immediately laid into me.

He said that I was very disrespectful to his girlfriend by playing Jurassic Park movies immediately after she told me it goes against her religious beliefs.

He said I made her feel very uncomfortable and that they both agree I did it on purpose to mock her beliefs.

I told him I don't care at all about her beliefs and that I

don't I told her I don't care at all about her beliefs and that all I did was watch movies in my own place.

I told him it's not my problem what her religious beliefs are and if she gets that upset about dinosaur movies, then I'm honestly kind of surprised she can go through day-to-day life without having an existential breakdown.

He told me that he doesn't want to live with me again after our lease is up at the end of the month.

We had already been looking at renewing our lease or finding a new place, but I think they are seriously overreacting.

What is happening?

Dude,

break up with your roommate.

Hit the gym.

Dude, get out of there.

Look,

I have my judgments of, I mean, this is so extreme.

I have my judgments of like certain beliefs and religions and whatever, but people can believe what they want.

But I've always laughed at like, I can't watch that because they're talking about things or it shows things that I don't believe.

I'm like, then yeah, don't believe it.

And then don't watch it.

It's not your own.

like watch it and don't believe it it's a fictional movie like what you're you're saying that your your faith is so weak that you can't watch it or you'll immediately be swayed i'm like then then do you even believe what you believe like it's not your apartment i'm i always like it's not your apartment i just scoff whenever people are like no i can't watch that because it goes against i'm like you must turn it off in your home you believe what you believe right like you believe it's the truth so it shouldn't matter but she believes i guess that god put fossils there as a test.

So maybe she also believes God made Jurassic Park as a test.

What's the test?

To test your faith.

Your faith in like, you know, the earth only being like 3,000 years.

So Jurassic Park playing was a test.

Yeah.

The Lord works in mysterious ways.

God.

Oh.

So my story is

I was placed.

No, I went to

a Christian summer camp.

My parents are like, yeah, yeah.

Like, you know, that was kind of like everything in our hometown was Christian.

And

then at one point, we did like a field trip to this like museum.

And the museum talked about how dinosaurs and man like coexisted.

And it was like three, the Earth is like 3,000 or 4,000 years old, was their pitch.

And dinosaurs were real.

And they coexisted with man, but the fossils are not millions of years old.

The scientists are wrong.

And they're only like 3,000 or 4,000 years old, but they were wiped out in like the, I think it's the flood that...

They were too big.

They were too big to fit on the ark that's still even though there's plenty of dinosaurs that were small

but yeah so so they are extremely

when I came home and I was telling my parents about it

and they were like and they were like oh we're you're actually not going back there

so

one

wow

Spencer's parents your parents your parents chose dinosaurs yeah well they they because I truly was so obsessed with dinosaurs like my whole life at that point for me to kind of like to show I think it showed how malleable, like a child's views are.

Where I was like, Yeah, like, well, that's what they told us, like this authority figure.

And they're like, Okay, well, that's actually not true.

Um, so you're done.

So, they were saying that that authority figure was saying those fossils didn't come from dinosaurs.

No, they came from dinosaurs, but they're only a couple thousand years old.

So, they didn't believe in carbon dating.

Yeah.

They were like, no.

And so, your parents are like, they aren't true simply because those aren't the facts of dinosaurs, because your parents believe in dinosaurs.

My parents believe in, yeah, science.

And the Grand Canyon was just God making a really complicated cake really quickly.

Yeah.

What?

He peed really hard.

Because there's a bunch of layers, and you can date all the layers you can see.

We're selecting.

Well, that's the top.

That's us.

Us and the mules.

We're the frosting.

The donkeys.

We're the frosting.

I can't.

It takes like willful ignorance.

I think when it comes to so much of these types of scientific things to go like, yeah, no,

the earth is not that old.

It's like you literally like like can look at stuff like let's be real like your roommate's girlfriend it's not her place

also you were inside a room with the door shut yeah like what did she come out and go to the bathroom and see if she hasn't seen Jurassic Park I unfortunately also I think this is just not a bro like this is a guy who like immediately like This is the type of friend I think that as soon as they get a girlfriend, it's just like, if the girlfriend's like, I don't like your friend, he's like, yeah, I don't like him either.

I don't like him.

It's like, he's not your bro, man.

You know what?

Maybe he just wanted the girlfriend to move in the whole time.

And then he was like, this is the time.

Yeah.

It's the Jurassic Park.

Yeah.

Poor guy was just loving his little Blu-ray, having a great time.

And he was smart for stopping after two.

Yeah.

The third one.

Which one's Dominion?

The fifth one?

No.

Sixth one.

I have not seen much.

I didn't see.

I didn't see.

You didn't see Christopher.

Christopher Harvard.

I've not actually watched any of the Jurassic Worlds.

I've only seen really the clip of the girl getting, as I call it, Harlem Globe trotted by the pterodactyls.

She gets, it's the best way to put it.

She's the nanny.

She's the nanny.

She's the nanny.

And dinosaurs are just throwing them around.

She's the nanny.

And she's on her phone the whole time.

Yeah.

I love Jurassic Park, but those ones are not that's Jurassic World.

I could not stop replaying it as a kid.

First Jurassic Park, the young, the blonde, her acting was out of control.

Remember her?

She was like,

oh, yeah.

To be fair, if I'm in a kitchen with a bunch of velociraptors, I'm acting that way.

But her acting made me laugh so hard as a kid, we would always rewind it and then press play again because it was so intense.

Yeah.

And the little boy.

Yeah.

See, I used to dress up as Tim from Jurassic Park a lot.

Which one was that?

Wow.

The kid in the striped shirt.

Oh, God.

He knows all the facts.

He knows all the facts.

He's carrying her at the dinosaur book schedule, baby.

Yeah, that's a great, great outfit.

Comments, not the asshole.

I'm sure whatever she and your roommate are doing in his room all the time also goes against her religious beliefs.

Roommate is just looking for an excuse to not live with you anymore.

Someone said they didn't have a problem with it while you were watching the land before time, but all of a sudden, after you discussed it, it became a problem.

You didn't sit there and force her to watch anything, and they were in a completely separate room.

not the asshole.

OP said, they think that once I found out that she doesn't believe in dinosaurs, that I watched the Jurassic Park movies to mock her beliefs and rub it in her face.

Really, I just hadn't seen the first two Jurassic Park movies in a while, and the conversation spurred an interest in watching them again.

Someone said, someone looking to be offended can usually find an excuse.

I don't want to get off track with the girlfriend's beliefs, but wow.

However, you were in no way disrespectful.

Your roommate is way out of line.

line.

I'm at a loss as to how that made her uncomfortable.

You didn't lecture her on evolution or ridicule her beliefs.

You simply watched a movie that didn't support her very, very non-mainstream religious beliefs.

You don't owe that to her.

She's like, can we put on God's Not Dead?

And it seems even the roomie didn't know as he asked her if she'd seen the movie.

I'm rolling my eyeballs around here.

It's not like OP was watching hardcore porn in the common area.

You were watching a couple of very well-known and popular movies.

OP said, this was the first time that her religious beliefs were ever brought up.

She never said anything about me smoking weed or drinking at our apartment.

I'm a 22-year-old college student.

I do my fair share of of sinning.

This was the first time I heard her talk about anything related to her religion.

Yeah, it's very inconsistent.

It's an interesting battle to pick.

Yeah, of all the things.

It does,

you know, it's a leap, but I do fall into the category of like, maybe the roommate was just trying to find an excuse.

I think that, I think he's like, go with the dinosaurs.

Let's do the dinosaur thing.

Because if we do drinking or smoking, then we have to stop drinking.

Also, the roommate loved Land before time.

Why isn't she on him on that?

Yeah, that's what he's saying.

He's like, it's inconsistent.

Also, the roommate clearly didn't know about this religious belief.

Well, dinosaurs mentioned.

That's

very expensive.

That's a you story.

I'm learning so much about you.

I think the boyfriend's cheating on him.

Probably.

You think the boyfriend's cheating on him?

Mm-hmm.

What?

I want to go on either side.

I need to make a Reddit account and just go onto these Am I the Essle posts and leave just comments that make zero sense.

Drop them.

Just be like, I think he's cheating on you.

It's very clear that he's not respecting you.

Oh, I get it.

I'm having.

Yeah, and just like, it's like, wait, I think you misread the story.

Now I get it.

Okay, our next story.

Okay.

Am I the asshole for not inviting my sister to my wedding because she always jokes about sleeping with my fiancé?

Probably.

So you.

They're just jokes, bro.

Come on, they're just jokes.

They're just jokes.

And she's allowed to say those fucking sleeves.

She's a dinner.

Okay, so I'm getting married in October.

Small chill, nothing crazy.

Should be a happy time, right?

Yeah.

Except my older sister, who's 31, has this thing where she constantly flirts with my fiancé, 29-year-old man, like aggressively.

And it's always under the guise of, oh my god, I'm just joking, don't be so sensitive.

The first time she met him, deadass said, wow, you upgraded.

I'd let him ruin my life too.

In front of me.

I care.

I laughed it off because I didn't want to seem insecure, but like WTF.

Then she started with the, if you ever get bored of her, you know who to call comments.

Again, in front of me.

I told her it was weird and she rolled her eyes and said, I'm too uptight.

She rolled her eyeballs.

She's made so many little jabs.

I saw him shirtless once.

Damn, girl, you got lucky.

If you die first, I call Dibs.

Oh, my God.

Too bad you got him first, LOL.

Like, it never ends.

This is just like Hamilton.

So funny.

This is so funny.

My fiancé thinks it's awkward, but tries to ignore it.

He's not flirtatious back, but he also doesn't really shut it down either.

Just gets uncomfortable and laughs nervously last weekend was the last straw we were at my parents house and i left to grab something from my car came back and heard her saying i swear i'm not making this up i mean if you're having second thoughts i'm always available just kidding unless

i this chick like

that one's funny like the unless was real that's not a joke anymore that's a goddamn come on i snapped told her she's disgusting and can't come to the wedding she flipped cried told my mom i was being dramatic now the whole family's saying I'm ruining the family over a joke, and she's just always been flirty and doesn't mean anything by it.

I don't even care if she meant it or not anymore.

I just don't want that energy around me if I'm trying to get married.

But now it's this whole thing and I'm apparently the villain for excluding her and making it a bigger deal than it is.

Am I the asshole for uninviting her or is this actually insane?

Because at this point, I feel like I'm losing it.

This sounds really complicated.

I mean,

what she's saying is making me laugh really hard.

It's, it's funny, but it's also just like, hey, if you, if you tell someone to stop, it's like, hey, fucking, fucking stop.

Yeah, like,

slash serious, fucking stop.

Slash serious?

Like, stop fucking.

The fiancé's uncomfortable, and of course he can't say anything.

It's her sister.

He's got to be drunk.

He's got to be like, uh,

um,

but I also think they could probably have a combo and he, and she could give him permission to be like, you're allowed.

Exactly.

You're allowed to fucking say no to her too.

But it's like, if the sister to do that too, like, family

it's so uncomfortable for either of them to have to.

It's really awkward.

I will say though, not inviting her to the wedding is a little

kind of to the extreme.

I just my family would never allow me to do that.

My family would be like, how dare you?

It's just reached out.

Well, I think the family is being like, how dare you?

The family is being how dare you.

It's one of those unfortunate things we see with so many families where someone's behavior has been a little out of control for so long that they're like, this is just who she is.

Yeah.

It's like, it's like, oh, that's Uncle Greg.

He gets drunk and gets in fights with everyone.

And that's just who he is.

Maybe she should have given him an ultimatum, her an ultimatum, like, hey, say that shit again, and you're not fucking coming to the wedding.

Sure.

You're making my fiancé uncomfortable.

And the next time you do it, he's going to say something.

Is that going to be fun for you?

Yeah.

It's one of those situations where I don't blame her for what she did because I'm like, that's exhausting.

It's exhausting.

It's exhausting.

If they talked about it before, I think it's a good thing.

I think it's disrespectful.

If I were talking about, like, you know, that,

yeah.

it's a little bit different.

She said she's brought it up, said, like, hey, this is uncomfortable.

Yeah, but is she saying

I told her it was weird, and she rolled her eyes and said, I'm too uptight.

I don't, so she's not giving specific examples of what she said.

I think she's also saying all these times were in front of her.

So it's kind of like, okay, you're saying a joke, and it's like you're doing it for shock value in front of me.

But she was saying this without her around.

She was saying this to her fiancé.

At a certain point, her fiancé

can protect himself.

He's marrying into the family.

He can be like, hey, no, I love your sister.

I'm marrying her.

I think a lot of men just aren't used to

that type of

having to like shut things down in that way.

No way.

Yeah, women have a lot of practice with that.

Like, truly.

Like, it's like you're kind of,

and I'm not saying that's not a reason to do that.

There's probably, but it's like,

don't we don't know from this if he has said anything like he could start off in a light way of just being like no like i'm so happy with her she's the one for me i feel like this sister though based on what we're seeing i just don't think anything's gonna stop her she seems i feel like i've just met a girl like this she just always says the comment that makes everyone go oh jesus christ yeah absolutely um

Comments, not the asshole.

Why the fuck would you ever make comments like this about someone significant other, especially in private Tim with you not around?

Instead of admitting her wrong, she continues to gaslight you into believing you're insecure slash overreacting.

Ultimately, it's your wedding, and if she can't respect you and your boundaries, then she doesn't have to be there.

OP said she disrespected me, and I'm her own sister.

That says everything I need to know.

Thank you for your comment.

Seriously, it means a lot.

Someone said, not inviting her ass is the best thing you can do.

She's the type, in my opinion, that will try to outshine you on your big day.

I get she's your sister, but damn, I would never do that to any of my sisters.

That's so disrespectful.

Can you imagine the sister taking a turn dancing with the groom?

It wouldn't be pretty.

Lastly, someone said, not the asshole.

Your sister is making a play for your fiancé and would like nothing more than to bust up your relationship so that she could have him.

That's another one of those Reddit comments.

It's like, dude, she's cheating on you.

Yeah.

She wants to kill you.

Blah, blah, blah.

There is nothing wrong with you setting strong boundaries and your parents need to have to come to Jesus to talk with your sister about her behavior and not and stop enabling her.

Someone said to that, exactly.

And the fiancé is likely not saying anything to avoid making waves, waves, but the sister is just an ass.

She's trying hard to come between them.

She's calling it a joke.

But if no one is laughing, what's so funny about it?

She clearly has no respect for her sister.

So, how is this related to you?

That's

the first time I'm like, like, I don't know.

Yeah, and I like, I think, Shane, you're right.

Like, it is like one of those kind of familial, maybe familiar is nothing, but like, it's like, it's the family member.

It's like, ah, like, you know, like, let him like

a little drunk.

If you do bad behavior so long, you get, you suddenly, it becomes part of who you are.

And everyone's like, well, they get a pass.

Yeah.

Because they've been doing it for so long.

But it, because, like, if this was an out-of-character thing, like, if you, if you have a sibling who is always respectful and always cool, and then suddenly you hear them say something like that, you're like, whoa.

Holy shit, but she's been doing it for so long.

Can I play devil's advocate?

What would be worse?

The sister being like, God, here comes your boyfriend.

It's Fucking ugly.

Sucks.

Oh, great.

You're marrying this loser.

I think.

Or the other part.

I think they're both.

I think

two sides of the same coin of just disrespecting her.

None of them are good.

And they're annoying.

They're annoying as hell.

Stop.

Oh, dude.

People who don't let up on, even if these are, if these are for sure a joke,

still annoying as hell, still disrespectful.

It's just exhausting.

Yeah, it's time.

If someone like legitimately tells me not to joke about something like around them, it's like, oh, okay.

Like, yeah, let's,

like, let me do that then.

Yeah.

I mean, we tell jokes for a living here, and we, we have the understanding amongst each other of like, hey, we, any joke is like fine.

Yep.

But once if a joke is said, it's like, hey, okay, let's not do that one.

It's like, all right.

Then we don't.

Then great.

That's all it takes.

When people don't respect that, it

bothers me so much.

Well, they wouldn't, they wouldn't be here.

Yeah, they're just annoying.

Yeah.

This is rough.

An update?

No update on that one.

I mean...

Do you think that she still isn't invited to the wedding?

Oh, it's in October.

Is that this year?

Maybe that'll be the one the chosens show up to.

It's just so complicated.

Can you imagine?

It's so complicated because, like,

this is unfortunate where the sister clearly is the one in the family who gets the pass.

Because, you know, if the sister had a wedding, okay, I'm going to be a little redditor here.

The sister had a wedding and she overreacted in ways and did something like this.

The family would probably be on her side.

Like, there's always that family member that, like, just kind of gets the pass.

And we read about it so much.

And I feel like this is the same thing.

I think it's because it's really uncomfortable to confront someone like that.

I think the family, it's kind of like that peacekeeping aspect in families where it's just like, well, if we all just let them.

Yeah, but then it gets worse and worse and worse.

Absolutely.

No, I mean,

like I said, I'm not necessarily judging her for her decision to say, you're not welcome to my wedding.

It is her wedding.

She's allowed.

She is allowed.

Are there going to be repercussions for her?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Like, it's going to be awkward in the family.

This is a, I'm breaking up the B-word.

I think it was brave of her to

uninvite her from the wedding.

Like, that's scary.

She's got to set it.

The only thoughts I'm thinking is just like, are there boundaries you can set?

But do I, based on just

based on this story, do I believe it?

And I think OP is seeming like she doesn't believe it either.

It's like, we don't know how long this is going on, how constant.

I mean, if it's to get to the point where you're uninviting a sibling, it has to be pretty extreme.

Because, like, at a wedding, it's like you want them there.

Yeah.

You should want them there.

So, to get to that point, I mean, you might regret it.

Yeah, I don't know, but

these things happen.

Families are complicated.

All right.

Our final story.

It comes from Am I Overreacting.

Am I Overreacting?

Wife called another man Daddy.

This is so you.

It's crazy.

You're doing that all the time.

I'm the other man.

Yeah.

He's like, honestly, I mean, we've seen the TikTok thirst traps.

I mean, we have.

Someone, there's a Spencer, there's a very real possibility that somewhere out there is a couple where the girlfriend might have accidentally called you daddy in front of their

thirst trap videos.

How do you feel about that?

Great.

Great.

Thank you.

Thank you guys.

It feels great on

the bottom.

Everyone's getting served them.

That's the funny thing.

Everyone.

That's the funny thing.

Literally

on URL, Courtney was talking to Ted Nivison and he was like, I'm getting served them.

Stop.

Everybody's getting served them, man.

I'm always kind of shocked when people know who I am.

You're very memorable.

Very memorable.

What's the sweetest thing you've ever said?

So for the last few years, my, it's a 33-year-old man.

My wife, who's 29, has been very interested in an MMO game.

She gets home from work on Tuesdays and boots up her PC and starts playing it for hours on end.

She likes to roleplay there.

She pretends to be a rabbit.

It's sort of like WB Dragons or play acting, apparently.

And she has a Sunday gaming group that she plays with.

I don't really get it, but it makes her happy, so I was always fine with it.

The last couple of months, though, she's been distant.

We haven't laying together in weeks, usually two to three times a week.

Lane together.

Lane together.

Oh, lane together.

Lane together.

I thought you said laned together, and I was like, that must be like an MMO term or something like that.

We haven't lane together in weeks, usually two to three times a week.

And she brushes me off if I ask what's wrong.

We used to cook together, but lately I've been having to do the cooking for us both and bring it to her in her home office.

She works from home because she won't leave her computer.

Then on Sunday night, I heard her talking with her gaming group.

She was saying, I'm a good aster, I swear.

This isn't her name.

Mate is so hard, but his mount is fantastic His thing is colossal and then she giggled wolf daddy is coming That's when I maybe overreacted.

I pulled the plug to the internet

Whoa

That is some that that's dad behavior

behavior

She was more upset that I turned off the internet than that I caught her cyber fucking another man and she tried to gaslight me into thinking I'm crazy So I said some unharmonious things to her and now she won't talk to me.

Was I overreacting here?

Clearly, a lot going on.

Yeah.

He was

probably,

he probably said some fucked up shit, it sounds like.

So, was she sleeping with another rabbit?

There's a game called Final Fantasy, and in it, you're in a big fantastical world, and there's different types of people you can play as.

You can play as a rabbit human, but they're just a human, like a tall.

I think a sexy thing is

tall, sexy.

Think of like a

rings.

Lord of the Rings elf but with ears love that pretty much

see this is where I wanted to leave reddit comments with sounds and I would just leave a moaning sound

but people uh people

people role-play in these games so when they're playing they're like speaking to each other as if they're in the world this is fun but people within the game like have relationships role-played relationships and role play like basically they just talk out makes sense phone sex essentially yeah with added elements Someone said, brother, I play Final Fantasy XIV.

I think you need to get your hearing checked.

First line is probably, I'm a good caster, I swear.

Second line is likely, mate is so hard, but his mount is cool.

Mate being pronounced as M8, as in, that is what players call the fight.

You get a mount from it.

Third line is based on the fact that the in-game announcer says the line, he put the colossus to the sword.

Fourth line is based on the fact that the boss, Howling Blade, is a wolf and says goofy shit like, can you handle a pack of wolves?

Either this is a post meant for karma farming or you need to actually talk with your girl because she is not ERPing.

She is raiding.

You are totally overreacting.

Edit, she was more likely reacting to the line, where did that colossal thing come from?

by the announcer.

I forgot about it, lol.

Anyway, use this as a lesson to sit down and communicate with her the next time you have concerns.

If she is willing to still put up with you after this, that is.

Okay, now it's my turn to play devil's advocate.

Okay.

Love this.

It's your birthday.

It's my birthday, so I can do this.

Yes.

Yes, you can.

I don't even remember what it is, because I thought of so many awful things.

No, no, no, no, no.

But it was, it was like, because he has been trying.

It sounds like in the lead up to this, from his POV,

This which is all we're getting he was saying a lot of like hey, she has been really distant I've been trying to communicate with her

You know, and she's not kind of like sharing this like MMO experience.

So I get how that has built resentment in that way.

But also like that is a hilarious misunderstanding.

He's pulling the plug

and saying unharmonious things.

Like that's, look, the question was, am I overreacting?

I think he might have been overreacting.

Yeah, he got paranoid.

I think he overreacted because if this is the first time he's ever...

heard anything of this nature.

He needs to go into the room and say, hey, what's going on?

What am I hearing?

But instead, he pulled out the internet.

It's just like a bunch of horrible things.

He wants attention.

He's feeling resentful.

It's building.

He's not saying anything.

So he automatically makes her the villain.

Here's the thing.

She might be having cybersex.

I don't know them.

Yeah.

I mean, she's a rabbit.

She's just be like legitimately addicted to the game, which can hurt a relationship.

It sounds like there are issues that he's like, oh, we're not spending much time together.

She's in her office all day, all night.

That's a problem.

You need to talk about that.

They're not doing that.

I don't like it.

I'm immediately not on this guy's side though, because he's asking if he's overreacting and he's not telling us what he said to her.

He goes, he goes, am I overreacting?

So I said a bunch of stuff to her.

And I'm like, what did you say, man?

He writes out exactly what she said.

He's like, I said some stuff.

Yeah.

He literally gave us four of her quotes and then doesn't say what he said to her.

I'm like, so yeah, I'm not on your side, man.

Yeah.

What

did you say?

Exactly.

He probably said some really mean shit.

He probably said some really awful stuff.

He probably let out all all of his frustrations, but he probably said some really ugly.

B-word

brave.

That wasn't very brave of you.

That was not very brave of you.

Internet is pulled.

Yeah, no.

Internet pulled.

That is like something a dad would do.

Yeah, like that's, and that's like dad behavior derogatory.

You have to like find your internet.

You have to like undo it.

That sucks.

Oh, yeah.

Then he doesn't get the internet.

He's like, wait, I didn't think.

He's like, oh, I'm in the middle of watching my movie that she can't watch with anyone else.

Who says we haven't lain together in weeks?

Also, maybe that's why she doesn't want to lay with you.

It's because you're talking like that, bro.

I'm like, she's like, she's the one playing Final Fantasy, but you're referring to sex that way?

Let me put down my sword.

She's like, just take off your pants.

At the end of all of this, which story was the most, Spencer?

Okay, let's say it before he says it.

Okay.

What do you think?

Mine feels.

Mine feels.

I'm leaning towards like Lego.

I'm leaning towards Jurassic Park because I think

I think not without like no matter the situation like if someone's like oh I'm deeply offended by Jurassic Park I we I cannot watch it it's horrible and then goes to another room I think I think it's very Spencer I think I would put up Jurassic Park as fast as humanly possible I think it's very Spencer to not do it out of spite should just be like oh man I should watch Jurassic Park I think I might do it out of spite a little bit okay so is Jurassic Park the most Spencer Reddit I think that might be there the lingerie guy had me in in the first half.

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

It's very Spencer and how funny it is.

It's awful, but it's funny.

It's stinky, and I don't like it, but it's a little really funny.

Wow.

Yeah.

Well,

which one was so not you?

Well, the

awful guy.

The sex worker.

Oh, no, there was the wedding one.

Yeah, the wedding one.

The sister who's just hitting on.

Yeah, it's just like, bro, bro.

Stop.

You're uninvited.

You're uninvited to my show.

One of your least favorite types of people.

Yeah.

There you go.

For your birthday.

Yeah, I got it.
