(00:00):
Hello bestie, it's another beautiful day to read some weird
things on the Internet. And also don't forget to eat
your cement for my only audio listeners.
(00:35):
You're like eat eat your cements.
Well, I'm currently wearing AI eat cement shirt.
You are also not viewing. I have the EE i.e. i.e.
Cat on screen right now. It's actually a 10 hour
compilation telling you man, you're missing out on YouTube.
But if you are an audio listener, I will give you a
different sound. Today we are going to be going
(00:59):
through my saved Reddit post. I haven't even read it.
I just saw the titles and I was like hell yeah because some of
these titles are super strong. So let's read it titled Am I
overreacting? Nurse male took a picture of my
vagina while I was about to go into surgery.
(01:21):
OK so I had been in the ICU for a few days after an accident.
I-23 female, finally got transferred to a regular room to
rest a bit before a second surgery I was supposed to have.
My parents had been with me literally the entire time, but
(01:42):
this one time I was napping and told him to go grab lunch since
I wasn't going anywhere anyway. That's when it happens.
A nurse, late 20s male, came in by himself.
Every other time before that there was always multiple nurses
in the room doing stuff so this already felt different.
The noise woke me up and he toldme he needed to insert a
(02:03):
catheter. I was like cool, not really
thinking anything of it. I know that for doctors and
nurses our bodies are literally just one of hundreds they see in
a day so I never really worry. I just give them my trust and
consents. But then it started.
And is it normal to take like 4 to 5 minutes?
Nope, it's not normal unless they're training and if he was
(02:27):
training there would be another nurse with them.
So good points on saying that. That's asking if that's normal
because it's not. He was down there for a while
and it hurt. Like I actually teared up from
just how uncomfortable I was. Then he looks at me and says he
can't get it in because my vagina is weirdly shaped and
that he needs to show the doctor.
(02:56):
Excuse me, that no you don't useweirdly shaped and you no OK.
He pulls out his personal phone from his scrubs, takes a picture
and walks out. I was shocked and didn't speak
up when it happened. Mind that I had a long surgery a
(03:16):
few days before and was recovering for the next one.
If it left such a sour taste in my mouth, I kept going back and
forth in my head. Did that actually happen the way
I remember? Am I overreacting?
I don't want to assume the worstabout somebody who might have
just been trying to do their job, but I can't stop thinking
(03:37):
about it. Something just feels really off.
I don't know how to reach out about it or if I even should.
What the hell, it really is haunting me right now.
OK, real quick before we read this update, good for you on
being so aware of your surroundings like it shows that
(04:02):
you were you're, you're not dumb.
It shows that you are genuinely doubting yourself because you
don't want to accept what happens completely, absolutely
reasonable because you're tryingnot Oh man, you're just you're,
you're trying not to come to terms with what happened because
(04:25):
it seems so surreal because like, it sounds like you've had
a good experience at this hospital and it just flipped the
switch real quick. And you don't want to think of
the worst. But unfortunately the worst is
happening. And the only way to make this
even more worse is if you act like it didn't happen because
that can cause a lot of mental strain throughout the, the rest
(04:49):
of your life. You know, it's called sexual
assault. It yeah, it's, it's an evil
little seed that's in your head of always remembering.
So anyways, let's read the update.
Hopefully OP went ahead and reported this.
So for anybody listening, if this happens to you or you know
anybody that this happens to, not specifically this like type
(05:11):
of scenario, but where you feel like there's a comfort level not
being reached that you deserve. Like how she said it hurt.
If it hurts to speak up, you're allowed to say anything about
anything that is bothering you. Don't.
You're not a burden. You're not a burden at all.
(05:32):
Just report it to the charge nurse.
And if that is the charge nurse,ask for the supervisor.
And if they ask what it's about,don't give them details, just
say you have some questions and you were told to reach out to
them. Literally just like that.
But let's read the update. Hi thank you everyone.
(05:52):
Reading replies has really changed my perception of that
day. My mental health is already
pretty messed up and this whole situation feels like a bomb just
dropped on top of it. I I'm honestly beyond words of
how terrified I am right now. I'm calling my parents in the
morning for help. I don't know what will happen
but I do know my dad won't rest until this guy is found and held
accountable for his actions. Another really good point to put
(06:17):
out is please do at least address it because even if it's
a misunderstanding, that's that chance of it not being a
misunderstanding really save a lot of other patients or other
people just in his life that because when you're like known
as a nurse a lot, you're a lot more, you notice a lot more
(06:38):
people are more vulnerable with you.
And so with that title comes a lot of responsibility and a lot
of ways that people can take advantage of that.
And we don't want that. We don't want this dude to keep
allowing these situations to happen because who knows what
else he he has done. If this were truly is a yo, this
dude's like taking pictures of people like what?
(07:03):
OK, and let's go ahead and do update #3.
Hey everyone, just wanted to give a bit of an update.
I've taken my case up and there's now an open
investigation going on. As you should, as you should.
I can't share many details for legal reasons.
Oh, I love hearing that. I love that.
(07:23):
That's how you know there is a serious open case going on.
But I just want to say thank youto everyone who encouraged me to
speak up and actually do something about it.
Everything still feels so surreal right now.
I'll update again when I can. Seems like it will take a bit
and real quick. This was posted five days ago.
(07:44):
Let's go ahead and check O PS accounts and see if she has
anything. Any new posts?
Any other updates? So so far that's the only post
she has obviously throwaway account as she should.
She's bro she's already been violated like with privacy
reasons. I think it's OK for her to have
one of those. Oh, we share the same birthday
(08:06):
her cake days December 22nd, That's so cute.
Oh wait, no, she made her account on wait no huh.
Hold on is that is that let me search that up real quick.
When when is cake day? Is cake day like your birthday?
The reason why I'm asking that because it says 2024 and this
girl is not one year old. So hold on.
(08:29):
What is Reddit cake day because I am a huge fan of if you don't
know the exact definition, search it up.
It's the anniversary of when a user's account was created.
So that's so cute they made their account on my birthday but
that also isn't cute because I hope no.
OK so this happened five days ago.
So this didn't happen on my birthday.
(08:50):
Whoo. She just made this account and
it happened to be on my birthday.
Anyways, it is absolutely not about me.
I just you don't usually see December 22nd.
OK, so let's go ahead and go back to the post and take a look
at what Reddit had to say about the situation with the oh, they
(09:11):
now have a new feature where youcan sort comments through Q&A.
So whichever post that OP did reply to, fantastic.
Let's go ahead and read the top one that OP replied to.
It seems like you had good stepsin place and we are all well and
are well supported by your lovedones and by strangers on this
thread. I just thought I would say, as
(09:32):
someone familiar with the emotional roller coaster that
sexual violence causes in the survivors, victims, any feelings
of shame or humiliation are not ours.
Rightly to feel the perpetrator should be ashamed, should feel
humiliated, are not. Remember sexual violence is not
a reflection of anything about us, it is the disgusting
(09:54):
cowardly little creeps who commit these acts that have a
problem. You are entitled to a full
spectrum of emotions and that usually includes the shoulda
woulda coulda's. But remember we should not be
having to mentally prepare ourselves for such a fucked up
world and for some forms of abuse and violence.
We can work on boundary setting and self esteem, but sometimes
these things are out of the blueand you're just shit out of
(10:16):
luck. For all sexual violence.
It just shouldn't have been perpetrated and that's on the
perpetrators. It's not on us, it's not on you.
I just absolutely had to say this.
If you feel any emotions that verge on victim blaming,
remember to consciously aim themall outwards at the perpetrator
and the culture of enabling and tolerance of sexual violence.
(10:36):
I am really working on consciousreframing to avoid self shaming.
Sorry for the rhyme on such a serious topic.
Hope you feel better and remember you can.
You will dust yourself off and truly the stain is on him.
You can hold your head high. Wishing you the best.
Really well put and OP did reply.
Gosh, thank you for saying this.I've been feeling so small,
(10:58):
guilty, humiliated, overwhelmed by how public everything's
gotten. But I'm trying to keep it
together because I need the truth.
I needed that reminder. I'm going to try to hold on to
it. OK, real quick earlier when I
said it's like a small seed planted in you, I'm not saying
that like it's just something that's super tiny.
(11:19):
Whatever, it's just going to grow when you know, like it's I
meant by small seed, as in, you know, when you plant a tree, it
starts out really small, then itmanifests into something
massive. I'm not comparing the aspect of
this sexual assault to somethingsuper tiny.
I'm comparing it to the fact that it blows up in your mind if
(11:41):
you keep pushing it away. Just want to clarify that
because as I was reading this I remembered back to what I said
and I wanted to clear that up. It is not something tiny, but it
is something that will explode mentally if not addressed with
coping mechanisms and they did an amazing job with the advice.
(12:03):
If I could add one thing about this other than my clarification
is you are reacting to somebody else's actions.
It's not that you 'cause something to have this happen to
you, and I will always say that when it comes to posts of
innocent bystanders that become victims.
(12:24):
And let's go ahead and see the next comment.
Did someone ever come back and put it in correctly by it?
They're talking about the catheter.
That seems very fishy and telling someone they have a
weird vagina seem super unprofessional.
I would want any nurse to use correct language like I am
having trouble because of your anatomy.
I'm going to request help and the picture seems super SUS.
(12:45):
The whole thing seems wrong. Yes, it is all wrong because
yes, you are not supposed to in any form of medical, whether if
you even went to like a professional school or if you
were trained in hospital as likea medical assistant.
You don't use negative terms andit's not it's more so a
(13:09):
professionalism to make sure you're building report, which is
like a patient caregiver bonds of trust.
And it's also because when you use anatomy like bad instead of
using like oh your anatomy is different which you shouldn't
even use that anyways, we'll getto that.
But saying like weird vagina, you were basically diagnosing
(13:32):
that patient and you're not allowed to fucking do that.
That's not your job. And even when a doctor
diagnosis, he still can't even use weird words like that.
This is all so wrong. I honestly wouldn't be surprised
if this dude wasn't even a nurseand was one of those, not in a
degrading way, but somebody who is on a lower tier, such as like
(13:59):
ACNA. By lower tier I mean specialty
in training and education, whichwould align up with, oh, I can't
put this in correctly, you have a weird vagina.
Because the way he treated that just raised too many red flags.
Like, come on, bro, come on. Yeah.
Oh, yeah. And you don't insert a catheter
(14:22):
into the vagina unless. Yeah, this is a good comma right
here. There's a chance that her
urethra is usually close, unusually close to or even on
the inside of the vagina opening.
And that's what he could meant by oddly shaped.
But still you. I don't.
(14:43):
Yeah. No, this isn't.
This isn't good. This really isn't good.
I know I keep yapping about thisone but I need to look at the
her comments a little bit more. Let's see.
Let's see this comment saying I'm a nurse using a personal
phone in a patient room for any reason is unacceptable.
Taking a picture of any part of a patient on a personal phone is
(15:04):
even worse. It's not just to be done ever
for any reason. We have iPads and little
handheld devices that we take pictures of wounds on, but they
are hospital owned, encrypted, and only used for patient care,
not to show anyone a weird vagina.
Please report this. Call the hospital and let them
know what happened when, where and who.
Good work, good work man. And like he wouldn't need a
(15:29):
photo. It's not like this this girl's
going anywhere. Like Oh my gosh, they have
doctors there for a reason. On call doctors, especially when
if she's recovering from surgery, she's most likely in
like the medical surge floor andit doesn't sound like she's in
the ICU and they have specific doctors for examinations and to
(15:54):
have a catheter order. So a catheter is to help
somebody urinate, especially if like just like they're bed
bounds and some people just get shy and they can't use the
bedpan. So you have to like go in there
and get the get the urine out orif the medication is wait, like
it's just a really strong medication.
If she's recovering from surgery, we don't know exactly
(16:15):
what surgery it can affect the way that, you know, urine's not
able to come out. You got to get that out or you
get infection. So you have to do that like
multiple times throughout the day.
So that's weird. If it was such a weirdly shaped,
she would have had this happen earlier.
(16:35):
And if you can't get it catheterand you're not supposed to keep
trying, you're supposed to like go get help.
I hope that dude wasn't trying to get off.
I read I don't even think about it.
I don't want to think about it. I don't want to think about it.
OPI hope you hope you get your no medical debt, paid surgery
and I hope you get the dream caryou want because girl that's
(16:59):
you're you're getting a bag withthis one.
OK this next story is called found my wife cheating from the
community Am I the asshole? Posted six days ago let's read
it. I 46 male have been married to
her 41 female for almost 10 years.
We have two kids 9:00 and 7:00. Every summer her parents fly her
(17:21):
and our kids back to PA Pennsylvania.
I would assume 2 for a week longvisit 2 summers ago.
When she came back I realized she was distant and wasn't being
affectionate with me let alone intimate very often.
After we were intimate I got a yeast infection.
I went to the doctor and fixed it.
But the next summer same thing. Back to the doctor for funnel
(17:45):
cream. OK I have many suspicions at
this point we weren't intimate for.
Wait real quick, what did this girl just like using like a toy?
It like doesn't know how to actually clean it and the only
time she uses this toy is when they're separate.
OK anyways let's let's continue.I have many suspicions at this
(18:08):
point. We weren't intimate for months
and we talked about going to therapy to deal with her issues.
She said she has something she needed to tell me but not with a
therapist. I started looking.
Then one morning a few weeks agoshe gave me her phone and asked
me to load up her Universal Studios tickets so she could
take the kids. I had just woken up and while
(18:28):
loading her the tickets, her Instagram was there and I looked
at her messages. She was in a very explicit
conversation with the man she knew from Pennsylvania.
They talked about sexual acts they had had and what she wanted
to do with him next time she wasthere.
She said in one of the messages.If I come home, you have to love
me forever. I'm not going to sneak around.
(18:50):
I guess she wasn't loving me because she was loving him.
Damn. It's a dildo with two legs and
two arms. OK, I did take pictures of the
messages and went to work in a whirlwind.
I left work early that day and met up with my best friend to
tell him what I found. After a few drinks and lots of
(19:13):
crying I went home and told her to come outside away from the
kids. When she got outside she said
what's wrong bruh? Bruh I said you know don't you?
She says yes. I said well our marriage is over
and I don't want to talk about any of it from here on out
unless it's in court for a divorce.
(19:36):
She said fine. All she said was fine.
Damn. Since then she had moved out to
the living room and has not talked to me except when it
comes to the kids. Neither of us can afford to
move. So we talked about cohabitating
for the sake of the kids, but I don't know if I can do it.
She is still obviously still talking to him.
(19:58):
When I asked her, she cut it off.
She told me it's no longer any of my business.
Yeah, do not stay living with this girl.
Bruh. No, no, hold on.
All of her finances are in the name, including a load of debt
and a new car I just bought for her brother.
That's your new car, not her newcar.
(20:21):
Say it with me, my car. There is no way she can afford
to keep up with her share as I was covering for her lack of
income with mine. My credit is good and it took a
lot of time to get it that way, but I'm certain it's just a
matter of time before she stops paying for her share of the
(20:42):
bills we had together. Keep receipts.
Keep all this evidence of her not contributing please.
She has already told me she won't be able to pay for things.
I tried to make an agreement forthe bills with shares and due
dates but she refused to sign it.
Yeah because she's trying to save all the money she can.
She's going to fucking leave bro.
Am I the asshole if I failed divorce and move out for my kids
(21:04):
so that I don't get to see them every day?
Wait what? Am I the asshole if I failed
divorce and move out? Oh from my kids so that I don't
get to see them every day? Even the thought of it makes me
ill. They have no idea anything is
going on at this point. Sir, you think that she's going
to give full custody of these kids if you can show proof that
(21:25):
she's not even paying anything? If she can't pay for her own
car, how is she going to pay forthese kids?
And if you're going to be doing like the Child Support, child
support is just supposed to be like to help support, not to
fully support. File for divorce.
And I'm telling you right now, the judge is going to laugh at
(21:48):
this bitch's face. Hell no.
Let's go ahead and not see if Reddit is also saying hell no in
the comments. Top comments.
Get a lawyer and get things started before she moves your
kids to live in another state. Make sure everything is started
and done in the state you live in.
Don't make it easy for her to take your kids away.
(22:09):
Yes, yes yes. Because bro, you do not want to
be paying those fees out of state fees 'cause you have to go
to that state that it was filed in.
If it's not in the state you're currently lived in, 'cause it's
going to be more expensive, moretime management bullshit, all
that it's, it's gonna make it way worse.
Please, please, please, please listen to this.
(22:31):
Let's see, let's see, a temporary court order that says
she can't take the kids out of state.
That order needs to become permanent if the final in the
final papers. Also, real quick, if she's
getting a yeast, if he's gettinga yeast infection from this girl
because of this dude's crusty cock, what type of conditions
(22:54):
does this dude live in? Because your kids are going to
go and meet this motherfucker. Excuse my language, but are we
not going to talk about that? That is a huge understanding of
hygiene. OK, not the asshole, but file
for divorce and stop paying her extras.
That car is your. That car is in your name, I
(23:17):
assume. Sell it.
Go through an attorney, make sure it's ironclad.
If she moves back to Pennsylvania you won't get 5050
and will end up paying much morein support.
Don't take it easy on her. Find a good lawyer and get
absolutely the most you can. A good lawyer will work hard for
you and your kids as best interest.
Do not offer more than the law would grant her.
(23:38):
Depending on your state with your proof of infidelity on her
part, it may work more in your favor.
Yes, and also if you're the, the, the whole financing, the
the vehicle go to that, that, that whatever loan the company
that you took the loan out of, because they usually allow you
to terminate leases. If you have proof of a court
case of like domestic dispute, like infidelity or they might
(24:04):
have like a clause to allow you to cancel the loan without a
huge fine. Like look into that.
That's another huge thing. Look into that.
Let's see, let's see, let's see.Any comments from OP?
Taking a look, No comments yet. Oh man brother.
(24:28):
And this was posted six days ago.
Ah get off my screen. OK but to answer his question,
you will not be the asshole. You are only doing it out of her
actions. You didn't do this, at least in
the context you gave. There's nothing you did.
(24:50):
OK, so that's time to sign thosedivorce papers.
All right, go back to my accountand let's go ahead and read this
next story. This was posted in the community
self. I'm not quite sure what self is
a place to post discussions, questions or anything else you
(25:12):
like. So it's just a very vague diary
online diary without necessarilymuch rules.
Just be excellent to each other.No witch hunts, no spam.
It's just like a chat room without avatars.
OK titled. I went on a date with a
self-described loner. I'm never doing that again.
(25:34):
He posted an ad on the forever alone subreddit.
He lived relatively close. We had similar interests and
like me, struggles in dating. Brother, there's a forever alone
subreddit. Oh we're gonna have fun with
that one in the future. Oh man imagine.
(25:54):
Imagine the posts and comments on that one we can read
together. OK.
I responded to his posts and we headed off through text.
He said he struggles to date because he is ugly.
I told him same here but I don'tcare about looks just hygiene
and being a decent person is enough for me.
These are pretty good standards I would say.
Not a lot of people have those standards to begin with.
(26:18):
He told me he isn't picky eitherand asked me out on a date.
I was excited but I didn't want to get my hopes up because we
hadn't seen each other yet and Iwas 100% sure he wouldn't want
to date me after seeing me. Damn OP, that's a lot of self
hate. OK.
He said we should go on a blind date for the same reason I had.
I told him he was more likely tohave a problem with me and not
(26:38):
the other way around. From experience but he said I
don't have anything to worry about.
OK well the date came and it went well at first.
Just like a normal friendly get together.
When we were done eating he saidin front of me that I'm sorry if
this comes off as rude but you are too ugly for me and I have
standards but you have a great personality OP.
(27:02):
Dude I feel bad for OPI. Was shocked because it came out
of nowhere. There is no indication of me
that he was an asshole. That's why I agreed to go on a
date. Anyways I took it like a champ.
Told him OK, he said good because men can't reject women
for their looks but women can and I think that's a double
standard. And kept on randomly rambling
(27:25):
random Internet sayings. I don't know what he wanted me
to even say to that. I was bummed at first but became
obvious I dodged a bullet. No, I don't think all loner guys
are like this. Yes, I'm not meeting people from
this site again. Edit please stop Dming me or
asking to see how ugly I am. How is that relevant?
(27:46):
Thank you to those who took the time to leave nice comments.
Damn. Oh no, they're a top 1% poster.
They have a lot of achievements.OK, let's go ahead and see what
Reddit has to say in the Commons.
Hopefully they offer some good insight.
(28:08):
Let's let's take a look so we have top comment.
This was definitely felt. I used to play a lot of league,
met a guy on there. We played together constantly
and flirted quite a bit over text and voice.
Then the pick begging starts. Assures me over and over that
it'd be fine, despite trying to warm him, warn him myself.
(28:29):
I was feeling confident the nextday and sent him a pic while we
were in a call together. Oh man, the silence was
deafening and I still remember the feeling of that.
He awkwardly ended the call and we never spoke or played again.
Well, it's taking quite a bit more time to get my confidence
back and being sure I'd never find anyone to love me.
I had finally found the love of my life who compliments me even
(28:50):
when I feel at my lowest. Love comes when you learn to
love yourself, compliment yourself and try to avoid giving
into the negative inner voice. Sorry that lame guy put you
through that. Take time to build yourself back
up, but don't be afraid of trying to make a new connection.
Good luck out there. That is very very well said.
The man ready just has like authors man.
(29:16):
I, I mean, I would rather want to somebody to just tell me to
my face the first time I meet him, like, rather than later
down, like at that point, like just straight, straight to the
point. Because why associate yourself
with somebody that already doesn't have good intentions
with you? And yes, repeatedly, you know,
we, we are social beings, we arehumans, We want friends, we want
(29:38):
connection. We, we, we want love, we want
acceptance. So to continuously getting hit
back-to-back to back with the same outcome, you can be easily
manipulated to believe that that's the only outcome in the
future, and it's completely reasonable to think that.
(30:01):
But it's also not fair to you because it really makes you
really become antisocial. Specifically pointing out this
comment, the last line. Sorry that lame guy put you
through that. Take time to build yourself back
up, but don't be afraid of trying to make a new connection
because they also understand like the it's, it's almost like
(30:25):
how the definition of insanity is to keep doing something the
same way over and over again, but expecting a different
outcome. I can see how people can use
that as well. That's why I'm not going to keep
doing it because this always keeps happening.
Well, the way you talk about yourself, Opie, it seems that
(30:46):
that is a massive thing you could change to hopefully get a
different outcome. And there really truly is love
for everyone out there. There's so many communities, so
many different personalities outthere.
Like if you just go on YouTube and search just like anything,
any hobby like Pokémon cards, like there's hundreds and
(31:11):
hundreds of people but not the same viewers watch the same
channels because at that point then everyone would have the
same viewers. You just the world is about
honestly investing in you and you will cross paths with the
people that align and that's OK.Some people's tribes are bigger
(31:32):
than others, but always rememberquality over quantity.
All right, now let's get back into this next story titled I
Give Customers More Food as a McDonald's Employee posted in
the confession subreddit, which I did not know existed.
(31:56):
I'm sure I've probably read 1 off of confessions, but it
wasn't really necessarily aware of the confession subreddit.
So that's super exciting. I'm ready for that episode and
yeah, let's read it. That's pretty much it.
I make sure that customers get their money's worth.
I make the Mcflurries full and add a good amount of sauce.
(32:19):
I make sure the fries are as full as possible and sometimes I
give away the sauces for free. What a God.
I once put about 14 Nuggets and a nine piece box.
I genuinely don't care anymore. I think the job is fun and stuff
but it's taking it's it's taken way too seriously.
They haven't taught me how to work the grill and how to make
(32:39):
burgers yet but to be honest that's for their own safety at
this point. At least do guts self-awareness
edits. I didn't think this would blow
up. Thank you for the kind comments,
gifts, and the stories. I'm from Europe so that might be
why it's a nine piece and not a 10.
My team is a bunch of younger people 16 to 35 and most of the
employees, including me are younger than 20.
(33:01):
My employees have seen me do this, but no one cares enough to
snitch. And yeah, I've been working
there for well over a year now so I will keep doing what I do.
Always have a good day and be nice to each other.
I hope his pillow is always coldon the other side.
I hope that he spots his dream car driving because that's
(33:22):
always fun like like the really rare dream car that you're like.
Why? Like how is it like in my
presence? I hope that he gets his steam
games. I hope they're on like that 90%
offspring sale. I hope that he just I hope he
gets a raise. I hope he does get on the girl
(33:44):
and he gives away even more. I know that dude would put
triples on a single with triple cheese.
Proud of him, very proud of him.But this is honestly because our
generation, like in your like 20s, early 20s to late 20s, we
grew up with like cool math games and Miniclip and those
(34:06):
flash games of fast food simulators where you just build
things based off what the customer says.
And if you mess up, you mess up.And then if you give more, you
give more. That's what is the outcome of
it. If you want to try to train our
generation to just be fast food service workers with these flash
(34:26):
games back in the day that we were racing to finish our math
tests and completely obviously bombed them because I had Papa's
Pizzeria ready to load up. Man, I don't care about this
math game. I need to go make pizzas.
You're going to get this. This is this is the programming
you get. But let's go ahead and take a
look at the comments. I want to ask what location
(34:48):
you're working. But I never asked a patriot to
risk themselves. Oh, man.
That's what he said. Nice try, Mr. Mr. Ronald.
Not getting them today. Funny.
Pretty funny. I'm not sure if there were any
comments by this person. Let's see.
No, no comments. No.
Nothing else. Let's see what one more comment
(35:10):
has to say before we go on to the next one.
How many times you have to clickback.
OK yeah people are like 14 in a nine piece.
I couldn't even imagine. I list my shit when I got one
extra nugget. Five extra would probably be the
highlight of my year. Damn.
Not all heroes wear capes. Keep up the good work.
(35:34):
I agree. I agree and let's take a look at
what else I have saved. This one was posted 14 days ago
from the Am I the Asshole titledupdate.
I'm done. Oh no I don't.
The account's deleted. The account's deleted.
(35:55):
I don't know if I can go back toI can't go back to the other
post, but they have like a briefdescription of what it was
about. Let's read it.
My OG post is on my page but basically I asked if I was the
asshole for not wanting my boyfriend to pee on me during
intimacy. Huh huh.
(36:20):
Like pee pee huh? Huh.
OK so I hope you all will be glad to know I am safe and I
left. I am so happy I just met met you
and I. I'm so happy.
Perfect, perfect delivery. What a strong 51st words.
OK the day I made the post he pushed again to urinate on me
(36:41):
during sex. I said no, and honestly, I got a
bit mad. I told him exactly how I feel
about it again, told him I hate it, I will never do it again
with him or anyone else. And if you can't let it go, we
are done. So they tried and she didn't
like it. So she had, like, an open mind.
It's not that she's like, like, yeah, no, that's more than
(37:04):
generous. This is where it gets scary.
I have or had a beautiful glass cake plate.
I don't bake, but I like gettingmini cakes and cupcakes and
displaying them in this cake plate.
When I said he either let it go or we are done, he picked up the
cake plate and threw it at me. I have terrible reflexes.
Dodgeball in high school was pure torture.
(37:26):
I tend to freeze when things come at my face.
I don't know what compelled me to move, but I managed to duck
out of the way just in time. You know what compelled you?
You felt anger and you felt literal, like malice.
You have human nature reflexes. OK, I don't know what compelled
me, but I moved to manage to duck out of the way.
(37:49):
I had glass in my hair and all around me.
If I hadn't ducked, it would have been hit by the plates.
He's never done anything like that before, and we both froze.
Well, everyone starts somewhere with violence.
It's not the time that someone actually has to report it when
it's the first. He then grabbed his keys and
(38:09):
said I need to drive before walking out.
I don't know how long I stood there but after a bed I reached
for my phone and called a friendfrom my college.
I broke down, told her everything, even his kink he
kept pushing for. Sorry Kathy, I know TMI.
She came over and helped me pileher car with my clothes, school
supplies, anything I didn't wantto leave behind.
(38:31):
It felt surreal, like I was watching it all happen to
someone else. Once I shut the car door I
proceeded to freak out, having ahard time breathing.
I thought I was dying. Eventually she calmed me down
and got me to her apartment and told me I'm welcome to stay
really good friends and also foryou to feel like you were
watching it happen to someone else but you were still doing
(38:53):
the motions of being safe. You are.
You are a very smart person and I think you should give yourself
more credit for that. Apparently my friends were
growing concerned and pointed out things in his behavior.
I didn't even notice they were contemplating if they should say
something, not knowing what was going on behind closed doors.
(39:14):
Almost all of them came over andhelped me set up in the living
room which has a pull out and one of her roommates cleared out
space to my things in her closet.
Amazing people, amazing people. These people really like stepped
up for her. It is her and two others but one
is moving out in a few months. She said I'm welcome to take
over the roommate spot when she leaves.
She stayed with me all night andcalled into work because I was a
(39:35):
wreck and didn't want to be leftalone.
Hadn't heard from my ex at all and I blocked him on everything.
Kathy and my friends have all volunteered to walk me to my
classes just in case. I know I keep saying this but
damn these friends are better than like 90 / 90% of these
Reddit families. OK a few of you suggested
(39:57):
therapy and I'm going to look into finding one I can afford.
I have a lot of things to figureout about my life but I'm safe
and that's a good start. Thank you for everything.
Real quick side note, I know I've said it multiple times in
my last episodes she said she had school supplies she was
moving so that means she's in school.
There is free therapy and guidance counselors to talk
(40:20):
about situations like this. There are multiple resources,
yes. The hardest part is initiating
that conversation because you you don't really want people to
view you lower than what you are.
You're not lower for being a victim.
But I do understand the fear of being judged because somebody
(40:45):
you completely trusted just did a 180.
What's going to make the other people not do a 180?
Fear. Fear is what's holding you back
and that's perfectly normal. Like I said, you are reacting to
somebody hurting you. You did not 'cause this hurt,
did not deserve this hurt. Look into that.
(41:06):
Look into your school resources.They usually have.
It's not usually. They do have resources like
emergency funds they're connected with, especially with
Americans with FAFSA financial aid.
They also have a money pet that funds emergency situations even
if the state itself of the that's with the college doesn't
(41:30):
have the money for. They work with financial aid
either way so look into that. Let's go ahead and take a look
at the comments though. When you stop yapping, get
therapy. Yes, but you also need to at
least file for a restraining order.
Depending on the laws of your country you can even report his
sexual and physical abuse if he had any photos of how your skin
ended after he non consensually did that to you so your trauma
(41:54):
made you scrub way too hard. You could talk to a lawyer and
file with evidence of what type of mental damage he inflicted
you. You can also report his attack
with the plates. Anyway, get a restraining order.
You need it to document the facthe is dangerous and he could try
to harm you again obviously. Also, you know, talk to your
roommates, they probably would absolutely be perfectly OK with
(42:15):
it, but still ask if they could do like a verbal statement and a
written statement with the police officer.
It's really important also how your friend called off for work.
So have the work also like verify like yeah, she actually
didn't come in on so and so dates to show even more evidence
on it. Another comment.
Wow. As a final touch, she attacks
(42:36):
you by throwing a plate at you for not wanting to be his potty
girl. I'm glad to know you're OK and
that you're out of that disgusting relationship, man.
And it's not just any plate but one he knew that she loved and
was for special occasions. Man, I really sucks that OP like
(42:56):
actually like tried it because obviously she knew she didn't
like it, but you know, you don'tknack it until you try it type
of saying I get that. But I'm glad that she like stood
her ground after trying it because she would have kept
doing it and it would have stillended up like this when she like
decided not to. Or if she said, oh, I'm not in
the mood for it, dude would still act out.
(43:18):
Dude. Dude is woo wee.
You should probably drop his name to save other people.
All right, let's go ahead and gointo this next story from No
stupid questions titled Why did the Nazis do so much record
keeping at the concentration camps of the if the whole idea
(43:40):
was to kill people and eliminatea population.
Really weird transition. I understand.
I saw that. I was like, I need to know.
I need to know what Reddit has to say about this.
I followed the Auschwitz Facebook page and other
Holocaust museums and they post the intake pictures of the
prisoners along as their fate, job, etcetera.
(44:00):
Why was all it kept so like? Well, especially since they knew
they could have been prosecuted for all of it if they lost the
war. Please no.
Hey I just always wondered this ever since I started World War
Two books way back in middle school.
So hopefully we get some insight.
We get some insight. Top comment being proper Rep.
Record keeping is essential to any organization for efficiency,
(44:24):
accuracy, and results. The Nazis were no different.
This is the answer. If it's not documented, how do
you know if your plan is workingacross the country?
It's kind of like how science has your hypothesis where you
have to kind of be like if I do A&B and you have your control
group and all that fun stuff. Woohoo, science.
(44:46):
And you expect an outcome, you have to prove it.
And that's basically what that was.
I was figuring that that's what it was going to be, especially
since they knew that they could have been prosecuted for all of
it. They lost the war.
So they were quoting O PS sentence.
And they replied they didn't know that no one had ever been
prosecuted for crimes against humanity before this.
(45:06):
They thought they wouldn't be introuble for following orders.
Yeah, also worth considering if they even considered losing the
war was an option until it started going wrong.
The majority of the leadership did not seem to consider it an
option. Yeah, and Hitler did not seem to
accept it was over until the Russians were near streets away.
(45:27):
Well, we learned something today.
OK, let's go ahead and see what else I have saved on this little
fun account, this one titled Therapist of Reddit.
What's been your biggest? I know I'm not supposed to
judge, but holy shit moments. This is on ask Reddit.
Of course, if you don't know, ask Reddit.
(45:48):
That's insane. I'm actually so happy that
you're here learning it with me.But ask Reddit is like where you
ask questions and they people answer it.
OK, top comment. Being early on in my career
while working at a community mental Health Center, I had a 17
year old client that had an 18 month old daughter and was 4 1/2
months pregnant when we began working together.
(46:11):
Oh my gosh, my goodness, that's a mouthful.
After we built enough trust in our relationship, she disclosed
that she had been repeatedly raped by her father for the past
three years. OK, he had sole custody of her
because her mom suffered from jerk addiction and had her
parental rights terminated. She reported to him to the local
(46:34):
police, a small town. However, they were friendly with
her father and didn't believe her.
They told her they would only follow through with the report
if she would her detail her sexual assault with her father
present, stating that if she could not do that they would
know she was lying. That is not a correct way to
gather evidence. That's why you always have like
(46:54):
the two people, like the victim and the person separate during
questioning. OK, small town it is, right?
OK. Her biggest fears were that her
children were biologically her father's.
She would not get a DNA test because she didn't want to look
at them or love them differently.
(47:14):
I made several reports to several authorities that
declined to investigate or remove her from the home.
Yeah, she didn't get a DNA test because this girl didn't have a
family. So she was like, at least I get
a family out of my family not being a family.
Oh, my gosh. OK.
The way you react to abuse is different for everyone.
(47:35):
In the end, my supervisor and I worked our asses off to get her
connected with a very thorough and helpful sexual assault
agency in another state. My agency and the new agency
split the cost to get her there,settled and safe.
She was 18 years old by this time.
I still think about her 20 yearslater.
I hope she's OK. OK, let's see what other people
(47:59):
are saying in the comments for their experiences.
This one is an attorney who specialized in insanity defenses
during the sentencing phase of death penalty cases.
Talked about 1 serial killer sheworked with.
She said that the most frightening person she ever met
was the father of her clients. Dad would tie his son's hands to
the rafters in their house then whip his son with electrical
(48:21):
wire. Huh.
Huh. Why why Oh my gosh, why have
children if you're if you're going to do stupid shit like
that? Another comments started my
first year at the Country Behavioral health working with
(48:44):
foster kids. Oh man OK let's see.
Shadowed my Co worker for a session with a 10 year old.
On the drive back to the office she told me that that 10 year
old is a victim of repeat child sexual abuse and has formed a
great bond with her caregivers and wants to stay with them.
However, her CPS worker was actively trying to get her back
(49:05):
with her mom who was still living with her boyfriend that
sexually assaulted the client. Her therapist continued to
advocate for the client to stay with the caregivers because
that's what the client wanted aswell.
I just cannot believe that a CSAis in a immediate Nope, not
getting your kids back if that person is still in contact or
lives with the perpetrator or isthe perpetrator.
(49:28):
I mean, the foster system's a little fucked up, but sometimes
it's the best situation for the person and you have a lot more
eyes to make sure that someone'sbad decision gets not fucking
unchecked. OK, let's read one more of this
one. I had a preteen client whose
guardian kept requesting progress notes to see how
(49:49):
they've been doing. It's against our clinic policy
for clients and parents guardians to have access to the
notes. They're allowed to have access
to everything else though. That client was very defiant to
everyone, but it was a wonderfulkid throughout their treatment
with me. When I met both with the
guardian and parent who both insisted on knowing everything
about the kid, everything started making sense once the
(50:11):
parent requested to switch therapists only because they
declined their request to the notes.
I knew how unhealthy the family dynamics were.
Good for you for making that observation.
I felt bad for the kid because they were opening up more about
the family dynamics and how theyimpacted them.
We had a good therapeutic relationships.
Very, very good on you. And This is why it's so
(50:34):
important to make sure that the people that are performing
medical treatments, whether it be therapy, a catheter,
placements, anything, you have the proper training.
That's where I still say, that'swhy I still say that that dude
probably wasn't a nurse and tookadvantage of the situation and
(50:54):
the client being in surgery. But I mean, also, if he was a
nurse and he was working the Medsurgy unit, I would see him
working that 'cause you can absolutely easily take advantage
of people because they're usually out of surgery, which
means that their pain medicine and anesthesia and all that is
still in there. That's fucked up.
Anyways, that was the first story.
(51:15):
We're going to talk about that anymore.
I have another saved post. It is from the Taco Bell
subreddit. Yes, it's actually a hilarious
subreddit. It is titled Just wanted to
share the most insane Taco Bell experience I've ever had.
And yes, I called corporate. OK, so it starts with the final
update I'm gonna roll down to. Oh, what?
(51:46):
Hold on, this dude like deleted the original just for the
update? Hold on, I'm going to go to the
dude's post. Umm Dang that sucks.
So basically, I actually did read this one when it was posted
(52:06):
and he like basically like placed a mobile order and the
people inside were like tweakingand being super creepy.
Like they dropped like acid, butit was probably the research
chemical. So it made them crazy.
Like not all they're like that, that schizo evil.
(52:27):
And they couldn't get a refund. And they told them like, Oh
yeah, talk to the, the Taco Bellapp.
And the Taco Bell app is like, no, you got to talk to the
store. And then the store was like, no,
I'm not doing that. And I guess this is an update to
that. But now I, I don't even want to
read it because it's just doesn't, you don't get, you guys
don't have the actual context. And I'm a really bad storyteller
(52:49):
if it's not in front of my face.That's why I read them and I
don't write them, but I do like writing.
But I no, OK, let's go to the next one then.
This is from No stupid questionstitled Why don't people stop
their kids from screaming anymore.
Growing up I got seriously told off If I screamed I was told it
(53:12):
was only something to do in an emergency like when being
kidnapped. Good parents.
Now every weekend or school holiday that has nice weather
many of the neighbors kids spentliterally all day outside
shouting and screaming. I'm not sure whether or not my
upbringing was right or wrong, this is just an observation.
My money's on the iPad kids. IPads have caused this because
(53:35):
kids are allowed to blast them with the fucking iPad right?
So why can't they be fucking blast in their mouth?
I have also had more neighbors than I used to, so obviously
that will affect the threat I have experienced Was my
upbringing in the minority and that actually most parents
should be letting their kids scream and shout.
I was also brought up not to make too much noise in respect
(53:56):
of the neighbors for my parents.Wrong for this.
OK, thought it might be an interesting discussion.
Thanks. And looking at the comments we
have. I work in an entertainment.
I found it more and more common for kids to sit down in the show
and just scream. Not cheer, not root for their
champion, but just blood curlingshrieking screams.
(54:17):
Never one parents are around. I do security.
This is part of my job ensuring people enjoy the show.
But any sort of genuine please don't do that gets no reaction
or worse, pushback. The ones 12 up, I just go up and
ask them if they're OK, make a big deal about do I need to call
somebody for help? Are they having a medical
emergency? Where's the pain?
Genuinely, they turn beet red and calm down.
(54:42):
Oh, that's actually smart. I like that one.
OK, let's go ahead and see this next comment.
Kindergarten teacher here working with kids for 10 years.
The past three years my studentshave been incredibly loud.
I do not understand the differences of volume even with
modeling the appropriate volume.These kids literally don't
recognize between a quiet and a loud voice past three years.
(55:02):
I'm telling you bro, this whole COVID lockdown thing could
really 'cause people to be lazy.These parents.
Oh I don't have to cook anymore,I got DoorDash.
DoorDash gives me 15% off if I spend $20.00 a month on their
membership pass. So that's less responsibility.
Which causes which you would think would allow the ability
(55:24):
for better raising and better taking care of your kids.
But no, it causes them to be like, oh, since this doesn't
matter, I have more freedom to do the things that I wanted to
do before I had kids. So I'm not going to be a parent
anymore but have kids. Oh man OK I have often wondered
(55:45):
the same thing. We could be as loud as we wanted
outside but if you screamed you had better be heard.
Or kidnap. It is really weird to me that
people are saying it is normal. Being loud and running outside
is fine. I hate when kids let out blood
curling screams outside because it's the whole crying wolf
thing. When there's a real emergency
it's dismisses kids screaming rather than kid dying.
Well I don't think it would haveaffected the outcome.
(56:06):
Kids were always screaming. And an apartment complex where I
lived as a young adult, 3 year old fell in the hot tub and
drowned. I was driving and saw the
commotion so stopped and did CPR.
But other sources of help, including my mom who was a nurse
and more qualified than I am at the time, had delayed being
unsure if they were hearing screams of play.
Screams for help. Got his pulse back a couple of
(56:27):
times but lost him three days later.
So please get your kids to stop fucking screaming outside.
Yeah, keep your kids away from the pool.
Jesus. Yeah, keep your kids away from
the pool unless you want to, like, go get them, like
professionally, like trained. But if you can only afford an
iPad for your kid to be raised, you probably can't afford the
(56:49):
classes. Yeah.
So I'm glad everyone in the comments is just saying how much
they're tired of it. And nobody's nobody as a parent
is commenting because they know what they're doing.
They know I know what they're doing.
Oh real quick, this person, thispost is from the mildly
interesting. So I've read it.
It says I made a crane for my breath strip.
(57:10):
You know those little Japanese cranes for my non visual
stemmers for the people listening, it's a those
Listerine packs and it has like a little it's literally made out
of little crane. Really cool.
Go ahead and take a look on the YouTube channel for this one.
But let's go ahead and read thisnext story.
(57:31):
It will be the last one of the episode.
Let's go titled Today I Fucked Up by accidentally becoming the
neighborhood Crow Whisperer. This is my life now.
It all started innocently enough.
I saw a lone crow in my yard andtossed it a cracker.
Harmless, right? Wrong.
(57:51):
That single act of kindness seems to have spread through the
crow Grapevine, and now I have aflow blown murder of crows as my
constant companions every more. Wait, how is this problem?
Every morning I step outside andthey're there, perched in nearby
trees, crawling like they're clocking into their daily jobs.
Don't they leave like gifts? That's actually pretty badass.
(58:13):
Like, unless you're like, hopefully you're not a living in
an apartment, no, because you said you saw one in your yard.
But if you're an apartment, I hope you're not on like the
higher deck because they'd be shitting on the neighbors down
below. So they say.
They follow me on walks and yesterday won't even drop a
shiny gum wrapper at my feet. I think they're trying to pay me
(58:34):
in crow currency, which is both enduring and slightly unnerving.
Teach them what money looks like.
At this point, I've accepted my new role as their unofficial
snack provider and accidental overlord.
That's a that's a good gamertag.Accidental overlord.
I'm genuinely curious to see where this goes.
Maybe I'll end up with a crow army you already do.
(58:55):
Or a collection of shiny gifts and it's starting.
Either way, it's a wild ride andI'm here for it.
Too long, didn't read, tossed a cracker to 1 crow.
Now there's a whole squad treating me like their leader.
My mornings involve cawing shinygifts and embracing the chaos.
I hope they've been posting photos of the GIFs.
I want to see them. I want to see them.
(59:15):
Let's see what the comments say.I had the opposite experience.
I gave some food and water to aninjured, sick crow that was
dying in a field on my house. When I approached it, the crows
all around it up in the tree started flipping out.
Even years later, even after moving away for a year, they
recognized me and followed me through the neighborhood,
squawking at me aggressively andpicking up little branches and
dropping them on me. You're like the cursed Disney
(59:40):
Princess. Apparently crows and other birds
tend to investigate a death and attempt to learn from the
experience and assign blame. So just by trying to help the
little guy out, I got blamed forhis death because I was at the
scene of the crime before he died.
Oh, wrongfully convicted of a murder by a murder.
(01:00:03):
Let's see if OP actually posted any of these.
What my visual stemmers? Are you seeing what I'm seeing?
(01:00:23):
I went to the O PS profile and Iwas looking at their comments
and it literally says I literally cannot stop basically
gooning while playing. Every time I queue up for a game
I find my something getting a little bricky and my hand glutes
(01:00:46):
itself to a said brick. I'm wow.
I can't stop staring at my character's chest, nether
regions and face. How classy.
But a classy man the face. They're all just tempting and
seductive. Anyway, favorite room And they,
(01:01:07):
the OP said Dark Harvest. We're gonna get out of this
person's account before this video gets mad.
What a way to end it. What a way to end it.
All right, cool. I'm a little lost for words.
(01:01:30):
Anyways, I also would just real quick like to say especially for
those that decided to stay this long in this episode, I have 800
more friends. Last episode 800 of you guys
just appeared and I am so grateful for you guys to be here
and I hope we can just enjoy this little fun corner of the
(01:01:53):
Internet where we eat cements sit behind a cat that has me
hostage and yeah, but most importantly, him and I, we we
have get out. We have matching ones, so
toodaloo ants. Until next time friends, take
(01:02:16):
care. You have been listening to
Reddit radio. Catch you on the next frequency.
Hello bestie, it's another beautiful day to read some weird
things on the Internet. And also don't forget to eat
your cement for my only audio listeners.
(00:35):
You're like eat eat your cements.
Well, I'm currently wearing AI eat cement shirt.
You are also not viewing. I have the EE i.e. i.e.
Cat on screen right now. It's actually a 10 hour
compilation telling you man, you're missing out on YouTube.
But if you are an audio listener, I will give you a
different sound. Today we are going to be going
(00:59):
through my saved Reddit post. I haven't even read it.
I just saw the titles and I was like hell yeah because some of
these titles are super strong. So let's read it titled Am I
overreacting? Nurse male took a picture of my
vagina while I was about to go into surgery.
(01:21):
OK so I had been in the ICU for a few days after an accident.
I-23 female, finally got transferred to a regular room to
rest a bit before a second surgery I was supposed to have.
My parents had been with me literally the entire time, but
(01:42):
this one time I was napping and told him to go grab lunch since
I wasn't going anywhere anyway. That's when it happens.
A nurse, late 20s male, came in by himself.
Every other time before that there was always multiple nurses
in the room doing stuff so this already felt different.
The noise woke me up and he toldme he needed to insert a
(02:03):
catheter. I was like cool, not really
thinking anything of it. I know that for doctors and
nurses our bodies are literally just one of hundreds they see in
a day so I never really worry. I just give them my trust and
consents. But then it started.
And is it normal to take like 4 to 5 minutes?
Nope, it's not normal unless they're training and if he was
(02:27):
training there would be another nurse with them.
So good points on saying that. That's asking if that's normal
because it's not. He was down there for a while
and it hurt. Like I actually teared up from
just how uncomfortable I was. Then he looks at me and says he
can't get it in because my vagina is weirdly shaped and
that he needs to show the doctor.
(02:56):
Excuse me, that no you don't useweirdly shaped and you no OK.
He pulls out his personal phone from his scrubs, takes a picture
and walks out. I was shocked and didn't speak
up when it happened. Mind that I had a long surgery a
(03:16):
few days before and was recovering for the next one.
If it left such a sour taste in my mouth, I kept going back and
forth in my head. Did that actually happen the way
I remember? Am I overreacting?
I don't want to assume the worstabout somebody who might have
just been trying to do their job, but I can't stop thinking
(03:37):
about it. Something just feels really off.
I don't know how to reach out about it or if I even should.
What the hell, it really is haunting me right now.
OK, real quick before we read this update, good for you on
being so aware of your surroundings like it shows that
(04:02):
you were you're, you're not dumb.
It shows that you are genuinely doubting yourself because you
don't want to accept what happens completely, absolutely
reasonable because you're tryingnot Oh man, you're just you're,
you're trying not to come to terms with what happened because
(04:25):
it seems so surreal because like, it sounds like you've had
a good experience at this hospital and it just flipped the
switch real quick. And you don't want to think of
the worst. But unfortunately the worst is
happening. And the only way to make this
even more worse is if you act like it didn't happen because
that can cause a lot of mental strain throughout the, the rest
(04:49):
of your life. You know, it's called sexual
assault. It yeah, it's, it's an evil
little seed that's in your head of always remembering.
So anyways, let's read the update.
Hopefully OP went ahead and reported this.
So for anybody listening, if this happens to you or you know
anybody that this happens to, not specifically this like type
(05:11):
of scenario, but where you feel like there's a comfort level not
being reached that you deserve. Like how she said it hurt.
If it hurts to speak up, you're allowed to say anything about
anything that is bothering you. Don't.
You're not a burden. You're not a burden at all.
(05:32):
Just report it to the charge nurse.
And if that is the charge nurse,ask for the supervisor.
And if they ask what it's about,don't give them details, just
say you have some questions and you were told to reach out to
them. Literally just like that.
But let's read the update. Hi thank you everyone.
(05:52):
Reading replies has really changed my perception of that
day. My mental health is already
pretty messed up and this whole situation feels like a bomb just
dropped on top of it. I I'm honestly beyond words of
how terrified I am right now. I'm calling my parents in the
morning for help. I don't know what will happen
but I do know my dad won't rest until this guy is found and held
accountable for his actions. Another really good point to put
(06:17):
out is please do at least address it because even if it's
a misunderstanding, that's that chance of it not being a
misunderstanding really save a lot of other patients or other
people just in his life that because when you're like known
as a nurse a lot, you're a lot more, you notice a lot more
(06:38):
people are more vulnerable with you.
And so with that title comes a lot of responsibility and a lot
of ways that people can take advantage of that.
And we don't want that. We don't want this dude to keep
allowing these situations to happen because who knows what
else he he has done. If this were truly is a yo, this
dude's like taking pictures of people like what?
(07:03):
OK, and let's go ahead and do update #3.
Hey everyone, just wanted to give a bit of an update.
I've taken my case up and there's now an open
investigation going on. As you should, as you should.
I can't share many details for legal reasons.
Oh, I love hearing that. I love that.
(07:23):
That's how you know there is a serious open case going on.
But I just want to say thank youto everyone who encouraged me to
speak up and actually do something about it.
Everything still feels so surreal right now.
I'll update again when I can. Seems like it will take a bit
and real quick. This was posted five days ago.
(07:44):
Let's go ahead and check O PS accounts and see if she has
anything. Any new posts?
Any other updates? So so far that's the only post
she has obviously throwaway account as she should.
She's bro she's already been violated like with privacy
reasons. I think it's OK for her to have
one of those. Oh, we share the same birthday
(08:06):
her cake days December 22nd, That's so cute.
Oh wait, no, she made her account on wait no huh.
Hold on is that is that let me search that up real quick.
When when is cake day? Is cake day like your birthday?
The reason why I'm asking that because it says 2024 and this
girl is not one year old. So hold on.
(08:29):
What is Reddit cake day because I am a huge fan of if you don't
know the exact definition, search it up.
It's the anniversary of when a user's account was created.
So that's so cute they made their account on my birthday but
that also isn't cute because I hope no.
OK so this happened five days ago.
So this didn't happen on my birthday.
(08:50):
Whoo. She just made this account and
it happened to be on my birthday.
Anyways, it is absolutely not about me.
I just you don't usually see December 22nd.
OK, so let's go ahead and go back to the post and take a look
at what Reddit had to say about the situation with the oh, they
(09:11):
now have a new feature where youcan sort comments through Q&A.
So whichever post that OP did reply to, fantastic.
Let's go ahead and read the top one that OP replied to.
It seems like you had good stepsin place and we are all well and
are well supported by your lovedones and by strangers on this
thread. I just thought I would say, as
(09:32):
someone familiar with the emotional roller coaster that
sexual violence causes in the survivors, victims, any feelings
of shame or humiliation are not ours.
Rightly to feel the perpetrator should be ashamed, should feel
humiliated, are not. Remember sexual violence is not
a reflection of anything about us, it is the disgusting
(09:54):
cowardly little creeps who commit these acts that have a
problem. You are entitled to a full
spectrum of emotions and that usually includes the shoulda
woulda coulda's. But remember we should not be
having to mentally prepare ourselves for such a fucked up
world and for some forms of abuse and violence.
We can work on boundary setting and self esteem, but sometimes
these things are out of the blueand you're just shit out of
(10:16):
luck. For all sexual violence.
It just shouldn't have been perpetrated and that's on the
perpetrators. It's not on us, it's not on you.
I just absolutely had to say this.
If you feel any emotions that verge on victim blaming,
remember to consciously aim themall outwards at the perpetrator
and the culture of enabling and tolerance of sexual violence.
(10:36):
I am really working on consciousreframing to avoid self shaming.
Sorry for the rhyme on such a serious topic.
Hope you feel better and remember you can.
You will dust yourself off and truly the stain is on him.
You can hold your head high. Wishing you the best.
Really well put and OP did reply.
Gosh, thank you for saying this.I've been feeling so small,
(10:58):
guilty, humiliated, overwhelmed by how public everything's
gotten. But I'm trying to keep it
together because I need the truth.
I needed that reminder. I'm going to try to hold on to
it. OK, real quick earlier when I
said it's like a small seed planted in you, I'm not saying
that like it's just something that's super tiny.
(11:19):
Whatever, it's just going to grow when you know, like it's I
meant by small seed, as in, you know, when you plant a tree, it
starts out really small, then itmanifests into something
massive. I'm not comparing the aspect of
this sexual assault to somethingsuper tiny.
I'm comparing it to the fact that it blows up in your mind if
(11:41):
you keep pushing it away. Just want to clarify that
because as I was reading this I remembered back to what I said
and I wanted to clear that up. It is not something tiny, but it
is something that will explode mentally if not addressed with
coping mechanisms and they did an amazing job with the advice.
(12:03):
If I could add one thing about this other than my clarification
is you are reacting to somebody else's actions.
It's not that you 'cause something to have this happen to
you, and I will always say that when it comes to posts of
innocent bystanders that become victims.
(12:24):
And let's go ahead and see the next comment.
Did someone ever come back and put it in correctly by it?
They're talking about the catheter.
That seems very fishy and telling someone they have a
weird vagina seem super unprofessional.
I would want any nurse to use correct language like I am
having trouble because of your anatomy.
I'm going to request help and the picture seems super SUS.
(12:45):
The whole thing seems wrong. Yes, it is all wrong because
yes, you are not supposed to in any form of medical, whether if
you even went to like a professional school or if you
were trained in hospital as likea medical assistant.
You don't use negative terms andit's not it's more so a
(13:09):
professionalism to make sure you're building report, which is
like a patient caregiver bonds of trust.
And it's also because when you use anatomy like bad instead of
using like oh your anatomy is different which you shouldn't
even use that anyways, we'll getto that.
But saying like weird vagina, you were basically diagnosing
(13:32):
that patient and you're not allowed to fucking do that.
That's not your job. And even when a doctor
diagnosis, he still can't even use weird words like that.
This is all so wrong. I honestly wouldn't be surprised
if this dude wasn't even a nurseand was one of those, not in a
degrading way, but somebody who is on a lower tier, such as like
(13:59):
ACNA. By lower tier I mean specialty
in training and education, whichwould align up with, oh, I can't
put this in correctly, you have a weird vagina.
Because the way he treated that just raised too many red flags.
Like, come on, bro, come on. Yeah.
Oh, yeah. And you don't insert a catheter
(14:22):
into the vagina unless. Yeah, this is a good comma right
here. There's a chance that her
urethra is usually close, unusually close to or even on
the inside of the vagina opening.
And that's what he could meant by oddly shaped.
But still you. I don't.
(14:43):
Yeah. No, this isn't.
This isn't good. This really isn't good.
I know I keep yapping about thisone but I need to look at the
her comments a little bit more. Let's see.
Let's see this comment saying I'm a nurse using a personal
phone in a patient room for any reason is unacceptable.
Taking a picture of any part of a patient on a personal phone is
(15:04):
even worse. It's not just to be done ever
for any reason. We have iPads and little
handheld devices that we take pictures of wounds on, but they
are hospital owned, encrypted, and only used for patient care,
not to show anyone a weird vagina.
Please report this. Call the hospital and let them
know what happened when, where and who.
Good work, good work man. And like he wouldn't need a
(15:29):
photo. It's not like this this girl's
going anywhere. Like Oh my gosh, they have
doctors there for a reason. On call doctors, especially when
if she's recovering from surgery, she's most likely in
like the medical surge floor andit doesn't sound like she's in
the ICU and they have specific doctors for examinations and to
(15:54):
have a catheter order. So a catheter is to help
somebody urinate, especially if like just like they're bed
bounds and some people just get shy and they can't use the
bedpan. So you have to like go in there
and get the get the urine out orif the medication is wait, like
it's just a really strong medication.
If she's recovering from surgery, we don't know exactly
(16:15):
what surgery it can affect the way that, you know, urine's not
able to come out. You got to get that out or you
get infection. So you have to do that like
multiple times throughout the day.
So that's weird. If it was such a weirdly shaped,
she would have had this happen earlier.
(16:35):
And if you can't get it catheterand you're not supposed to keep
trying, you're supposed to like go get help.
I hope that dude wasn't trying to get off.
I read I don't even think about it.
I don't want to think about it. I don't want to think about it.
OPI hope you hope you get your no medical debt, paid surgery
and I hope you get the dream caryou want because girl that's
(16:59):
you're you're getting a bag withthis one.
OK this next story is called found my wife cheating from the
community Am I the asshole? Posted six days ago let's read
it. I 46 male have been married to
her 41 female for almost 10 years.
We have two kids 9:00 and 7:00. Every summer her parents fly her
(17:21):
and our kids back to PA Pennsylvania.
I would assume 2 for a week longvisit 2 summers ago.
When she came back I realized she was distant and wasn't being
affectionate with me let alone intimate very often.
After we were intimate I got a yeast infection.
I went to the doctor and fixed it.
But the next summer same thing. Back to the doctor for funnel
(17:45):
cream. OK I have many suspicions at
this point we weren't intimate for.
Wait real quick, what did this girl just like using like a toy?
It like doesn't know how to actually clean it and the only
time she uses this toy is when they're separate.
OK anyways let's let's continue.I have many suspicions at this
(18:08):
point. We weren't intimate for months
and we talked about going to therapy to deal with her issues.
She said she has something she needed to tell me but not with a
therapist. I started looking.
Then one morning a few weeks agoshe gave me her phone and asked
me to load up her Universal Studios tickets so she could
take the kids. I had just woken up and while
(18:28):
loading her the tickets, her Instagram was there and I looked
at her messages. She was in a very explicit
conversation with the man she knew from Pennsylvania.
They talked about sexual acts they had had and what she wanted
to do with him next time she wasthere.
She said in one of the messages.If I come home, you have to love
me forever. I'm not going to sneak around.
(18:50):
I guess she wasn't loving me because she was loving him.
Damn. It's a dildo with two legs and
two arms. OK, I did take pictures of the
messages and went to work in a whirlwind.
I left work early that day and met up with my best friend to
tell him what I found. After a few drinks and lots of
(19:13):
crying I went home and told her to come outside away from the
kids. When she got outside she said
what's wrong bruh? Bruh I said you know don't you?
She says yes. I said well our marriage is over
and I don't want to talk about any of it from here on out
unless it's in court for a divorce.
(19:36):
She said fine. All she said was fine.
Damn. Since then she had moved out to
the living room and has not talked to me except when it
comes to the kids. Neither of us can afford to
move. So we talked about cohabitating
for the sake of the kids, but I don't know if I can do it.
She is still obviously still talking to him.
(19:58):
When I asked her, she cut it off.
She told me it's no longer any of my business.
Yeah, do not stay living with this girl.
Bruh. No, no, hold on.
All of her finances are in the name, including a load of debt
and a new car I just bought for her brother.
That's your new car, not her newcar.
(20:21):
Say it with me, my car. There is no way she can afford
to keep up with her share as I was covering for her lack of
income with mine. My credit is good and it took a
lot of time to get it that way, but I'm certain it's just a
matter of time before she stops paying for her share of the
(20:42):
bills we had together. Keep receipts.
Keep all this evidence of her not contributing please.
She has already told me she won't be able to pay for things.
I tried to make an agreement forthe bills with shares and due
dates but she refused to sign it.
Yeah because she's trying to save all the money she can.
She's going to fucking leave bro.
Am I the asshole if I failed divorce and move out for my kids
(21:04):
so that I don't get to see them every day?
Wait what? Am I the asshole if I failed
divorce and move out? Oh from my kids so that I don't
get to see them every day? Even the thought of it makes me
ill. They have no idea anything is
going on at this point. Sir, you think that she's going
to give full custody of these kids if you can show proof that
(21:25):
she's not even paying anything? If she can't pay for her own
car, how is she going to pay forthese kids?
And if you're going to be doing like the Child Support, child
support is just supposed to be like to help support, not to
fully support. File for divorce.
And I'm telling you right now, the judge is going to laugh at
(21:48):
this bitch's face. Hell no.
Let's go ahead and not see if Reddit is also saying hell no in
the comments. Top comments.
Get a lawyer and get things started before she moves your
kids to live in another state. Make sure everything is started
and done in the state you live in.
Don't make it easy for her to take your kids away.
(22:09):
Yes, yes yes. Because bro, you do not want to
be paying those fees out of state fees 'cause you have to go
to that state that it was filed in.
If it's not in the state you're currently lived in, 'cause it's
going to be more expensive, moretime management bullshit, all
that it's, it's gonna make it way worse.
Please, please, please, please listen to this.
(22:31):
Let's see, let's see, a temporary court order that says
she can't take the kids out of state.
That order needs to become permanent if the final in the
final papers. Also, real quick, if she's
getting a yeast, if he's gettinga yeast infection from this girl
because of this dude's crusty cock, what type of conditions
(22:54):
does this dude live in? Because your kids are going to
go and meet this motherfucker. Excuse my language, but are we
not going to talk about that? That is a huge understanding of
hygiene. OK, not the asshole, but file
for divorce and stop paying her extras.
That car is your. That car is in your name, I
(23:17):
assume. Sell it.
Go through an attorney, make sure it's ironclad.
If she moves back to Pennsylvania you won't get 5050
and will end up paying much morein support.
Don't take it easy on her. Find a good lawyer and get
absolutely the most you can. A good lawyer will work hard for
you and your kids as best interest.
Do not offer more than the law would grant her.
(23:38):
Depending on your state with your proof of infidelity on her
part, it may work more in your favor.
Yes, and also if you're the, the, the whole financing, the
the vehicle go to that, that, that whatever loan the company
that you took the loan out of, because they usually allow you
to terminate leases. If you have proof of a court
case of like domestic dispute, like infidelity or they might
(24:04):
have like a clause to allow you to cancel the loan without a
huge fine. Like look into that.
That's another huge thing. Look into that.
Let's see, let's see, let's see.Any comments from OP?
Taking a look, No comments yet. Oh man brother.
(24:28):
And this was posted six days ago.
Ah get off my screen. OK but to answer his question,
you will not be the asshole. You are only doing it out of her
actions. You didn't do this, at least in
the context you gave. There's nothing you did.
(24:50):
OK, so that's time to sign thosedivorce papers.
All right, go back to my accountand let's go ahead and read this
next story. This was posted in the community
self. I'm not quite sure what self is
a place to post discussions, questions or anything else you
(25:12):
like. So it's just a very vague diary
online diary without necessarilymuch rules.
Just be excellent to each other.No witch hunts, no spam.
It's just like a chat room without avatars.
OK titled. I went on a date with a
self-described loner. I'm never doing that again.
(25:34):
He posted an ad on the forever alone subreddit.
He lived relatively close. We had similar interests and
like me, struggles in dating. Brother, there's a forever alone
subreddit. Oh we're gonna have fun with
that one in the future. Oh man imagine.
(25:54):
Imagine the posts and comments on that one we can read
together. OK.
I responded to his posts and we headed off through text.
He said he struggles to date because he is ugly.
I told him same here but I don'tcare about looks just hygiene
and being a decent person is enough for me.
These are pretty good standards I would say.
Not a lot of people have those standards to begin with.
(26:18):
He told me he isn't picky eitherand asked me out on a date.
I was excited but I didn't want to get my hopes up because we
hadn't seen each other yet and Iwas 100% sure he wouldn't want
to date me after seeing me. Damn OP, that's a lot of self
hate. OK.
He said we should go on a blind date for the same reason I had.
I told him he was more likely tohave a problem with me and not
(26:38):
the other way around. From experience but he said I
don't have anything to worry about.
OK well the date came and it went well at first.
Just like a normal friendly get together.
When we were done eating he saidin front of me that I'm sorry if
this comes off as rude but you are too ugly for me and I have
standards but you have a great personality OP.
(27:02):
Dude I feel bad for OPI. Was shocked because it came out
of nowhere. There is no indication of me
that he was an asshole. That's why I agreed to go on a
date. Anyways I took it like a champ.
Told him OK, he said good because men can't reject women
for their looks but women can and I think that's a double
standard. And kept on randomly rambling
(27:25):
random Internet sayings. I don't know what he wanted me
to even say to that. I was bummed at first but became
obvious I dodged a bullet. No, I don't think all loner guys
are like this. Yes, I'm not meeting people from
this site again. Edit please stop Dming me or
asking to see how ugly I am. How is that relevant?
(27:46):
Thank you to those who took the time to leave nice comments.
Damn. Oh no, they're a top 1% poster.
They have a lot of achievements.OK, let's go ahead and see what
Reddit has to say in the Commons.
Hopefully they offer some good insight.
(28:08):
Let's let's take a look so we have top comment.
This was definitely felt. I used to play a lot of league,
met a guy on there. We played together constantly
and flirted quite a bit over text and voice.
Then the pick begging starts. Assures me over and over that
it'd be fine, despite trying to warm him, warn him myself.
(28:29):
I was feeling confident the nextday and sent him a pic while we
were in a call together. Oh man, the silence was
deafening and I still remember the feeling of that.
He awkwardly ended the call and we never spoke or played again.
Well, it's taking quite a bit more time to get my confidence
back and being sure I'd never find anyone to love me.
I had finally found the love of my life who compliments me even
(28:50):
when I feel at my lowest. Love comes when you learn to
love yourself, compliment yourself and try to avoid giving
into the negative inner voice. Sorry that lame guy put you
through that. Take time to build yourself back
up, but don't be afraid of trying to make a new connection.
Good luck out there. That is very very well said.
The man ready just has like authors man.
(29:16):
I, I mean, I would rather want to somebody to just tell me to
my face the first time I meet him, like, rather than later
down, like at that point, like just straight, straight to the
point. Because why associate yourself
with somebody that already doesn't have good intentions
with you? And yes, repeatedly, you know,
we, we are social beings, we arehumans, We want friends, we want
(29:38):
connection. We, we, we want love, we want
acceptance. So to continuously getting hit
back-to-back to back with the same outcome, you can be easily
manipulated to believe that that's the only outcome in the
future, and it's completely reasonable to think that.
(30:01):
But it's also not fair to you because it really makes you
really become antisocial. Specifically pointing out this
comment, the last line. Sorry that lame guy put you
through that. Take time to build yourself back
up, but don't be afraid of trying to make a new connection
because they also understand like the it's, it's almost like
(30:25):
how the definition of insanity is to keep doing something the
same way over and over again, but expecting a different
outcome. I can see how people can use
that as well. That's why I'm not going to keep
doing it because this always keeps happening.
Well, the way you talk about yourself, Opie, it seems that
(30:46):
that is a massive thing you could change to hopefully get a
different outcome. And there really truly is love
for everyone out there. There's so many communities, so
many different personalities outthere.
Like if you just go on YouTube and search just like anything,
any hobby like Pokémon cards, like there's hundreds and
(31:11):
hundreds of people but not the same viewers watch the same
channels because at that point then everyone would have the
same viewers. You just the world is about
honestly investing in you and you will cross paths with the
people that align and that's OK.Some people's tribes are bigger
(31:32):
than others, but always rememberquality over quantity.
All right, now let's get back into this next story titled I
Give Customers More Food as a McDonald's Employee posted in
the confession subreddit, which I did not know existed.
(31:56):
I'm sure I've probably read 1 off of confessions, but it
wasn't really necessarily aware of the confession subreddit.
So that's super exciting. I'm ready for that episode and
yeah, let's read it. That's pretty much it.
I make sure that customers get their money's worth.
I make the Mcflurries full and add a good amount of sauce.
(32:19):
I make sure the fries are as full as possible and sometimes I
give away the sauces for free. What a God.
I once put about 14 Nuggets and a nine piece box.
I genuinely don't care anymore. I think the job is fun and stuff
but it's taking it's it's taken way too seriously.
They haven't taught me how to work the grill and how to make
(32:39):
burgers yet but to be honest that's for their own safety at
this point. At least do guts self-awareness
edits. I didn't think this would blow
up. Thank you for the kind comments,
gifts, and the stories. I'm from Europe so that might be
why it's a nine piece and not a 10.
My team is a bunch of younger people 16 to 35 and most of the
employees, including me are younger than 20.
(33:01):
My employees have seen me do this, but no one cares enough to
snitch. And yeah, I've been working
there for well over a year now so I will keep doing what I do.
Always have a good day and be nice to each other.
I hope his pillow is always coldon the other side.
I hope that he spots his dream car driving because that's
(33:22):
always fun like like the really rare dream car that you're like.
Why? Like how is it like in my
presence? I hope that he gets his steam
games. I hope they're on like that 90%
offspring sale. I hope that he just I hope he
gets a raise. I hope he does get on the girl
(33:44):
and he gives away even more. I know that dude would put
triples on a single with triple cheese.
Proud of him, very proud of him.But this is honestly because our
generation, like in your like 20s, early 20s to late 20s, we
grew up with like cool math games and Miniclip and those
(34:06):
flash games of fast food simulators where you just build
things based off what the customer says.
And if you mess up, you mess up.And then if you give more, you
give more. That's what is the outcome of
it. If you want to try to train our
generation to just be fast food service workers with these flash
(34:26):
games back in the day that we were racing to finish our math
tests and completely obviously bombed them because I had Papa's
Pizzeria ready to load up. Man, I don't care about this
math game. I need to go make pizzas.
You're going to get this. This is this is the programming
you get. But let's go ahead and take a
look at the comments. I want to ask what location
(34:48):
you're working. But I never asked a patriot to
risk themselves. Oh, man.
That's what he said. Nice try, Mr. Mr. Ronald.
Not getting them today. Funny.
Pretty funny. I'm not sure if there were any
comments by this person. Let's see.
No, no comments. No.
Nothing else. Let's see what one more comment
(35:10):
has to say before we go on to the next one.
How many times you have to clickback.
OK yeah people are like 14 in a nine piece.
I couldn't even imagine. I list my shit when I got one
extra nugget. Five extra would probably be the
highlight of my year. Damn.
Not all heroes wear capes. Keep up the good work.
(35:34):
I agree. I agree and let's take a look at
what else I have saved. This one was posted 14 days ago
from the Am I the Asshole titledupdate.
I'm done. Oh no I don't.
The account's deleted. The account's deleted.
(35:55):
I don't know if I can go back toI can't go back to the other
post, but they have like a briefdescription of what it was
about. Let's read it.
My OG post is on my page but basically I asked if I was the
asshole for not wanting my boyfriend to pee on me during
intimacy. Huh huh.
(36:20):
Like pee pee huh? Huh.
OK so I hope you all will be glad to know I am safe and I
left. I am so happy I just met met you
and I. I'm so happy.
Perfect, perfect delivery. What a strong 51st words.
OK the day I made the post he pushed again to urinate on me
(36:41):
during sex. I said no, and honestly, I got a
bit mad. I told him exactly how I feel
about it again, told him I hate it, I will never do it again
with him or anyone else. And if you can't let it go, we
are done. So they tried and she didn't
like it. So she had, like, an open mind.
It's not that she's like, like, yeah, no, that's more than
(37:04):
generous. This is where it gets scary.
I have or had a beautiful glass cake plate.
I don't bake, but I like gettingmini cakes and cupcakes and
displaying them in this cake plate.
When I said he either let it go or we are done, he picked up the
cake plate and threw it at me. I have terrible reflexes.
Dodgeball in high school was pure torture.
(37:26):
I tend to freeze when things come at my face.
I don't know what compelled me to move, but I managed to duck
out of the way just in time. You know what compelled you?
You felt anger and you felt literal, like malice.
You have human nature reflexes. OK, I don't know what compelled
me, but I moved to manage to duck out of the way.
(37:49):
I had glass in my hair and all around me.
If I hadn't ducked, it would have been hit by the plates.
He's never done anything like that before, and we both froze.
Well, everyone starts somewhere with violence.
It's not the time that someone actually has to report it when
it's the first. He then grabbed his keys and
(38:09):
said I need to drive before walking out.
I don't know how long I stood there but after a bed I reached
for my phone and called a friendfrom my college.
I broke down, told her everything, even his kink he
kept pushing for. Sorry Kathy, I know TMI.
She came over and helped me pileher car with my clothes, school
supplies, anything I didn't wantto leave behind.
(38:31):
It felt surreal, like I was watching it all happen to
someone else. Once I shut the car door I
proceeded to freak out, having ahard time breathing.
I thought I was dying. Eventually she calmed me down
and got me to her apartment and told me I'm welcome to stay
really good friends and also foryou to feel like you were
watching it happen to someone else but you were still doing
(38:53):
the motions of being safe. You are.
You are a very smart person and I think you should give yourself
more credit for that. Apparently my friends were
growing concerned and pointed out things in his behavior.
I didn't even notice they were contemplating if they should say
something, not knowing what was going on behind closed doors.
(39:14):
Almost all of them came over andhelped me set up in the living
room which has a pull out and one of her roommates cleared out
space to my things in her closet.
Amazing people, amazing people. These people really like stepped
up for her. It is her and two others but one
is moving out in a few months. She said I'm welcome to take
over the roommate spot when she leaves.
She stayed with me all night andcalled into work because I was a
(39:35):
wreck and didn't want to be leftalone.
Hadn't heard from my ex at all and I blocked him on everything.
Kathy and my friends have all volunteered to walk me to my
classes just in case. I know I keep saying this but
damn these friends are better than like 90 / 90% of these
Reddit families. OK a few of you suggested
(39:57):
therapy and I'm going to look into finding one I can afford.
I have a lot of things to figureout about my life but I'm safe
and that's a good start. Thank you for everything.
Real quick side note, I know I've said it multiple times in
my last episodes she said she had school supplies she was
moving so that means she's in school.
There is free therapy and guidance counselors to talk
(40:20):
about situations like this. There are multiple resources,
yes. The hardest part is initiating
that conversation because you you don't really want people to
view you lower than what you are.
You're not lower for being a victim.
But I do understand the fear of being judged because somebody
(40:45):
you completely trusted just did a 180.
What's going to make the other people not do a 180?
Fear. Fear is what's holding you back
and that's perfectly normal. Like I said, you are reacting to
somebody hurting you. You did not 'cause this hurt,
did not deserve this hurt. Look into that.
(41:06):
Look into your school resources.They usually have.
It's not usually. They do have resources like
emergency funds they're connected with, especially with
Americans with FAFSA financial aid.
They also have a money pet that funds emergency situations even
if the state itself of the that's with the college doesn't
(41:30):
have the money for. They work with financial aid
either way so look into that. Let's go ahead and take a look
at the comments though. When you stop yapping, get
therapy. Yes, but you also need to at
least file for a restraining order.
Depending on the laws of your country you can even report his
sexual and physical abuse if he had any photos of how your skin
ended after he non consensually did that to you so your trauma
(41:54):
made you scrub way too hard. You could talk to a lawyer and
file with evidence of what type of mental damage he inflicted
you. You can also report his attack
with the plates. Anyway, get a restraining order.
You need it to document the facthe is dangerous and he could try
to harm you again obviously. Also, you know, talk to your
roommates, they probably would absolutely be perfectly OK with
(42:15):
it, but still ask if they could do like a verbal statement and a
written statement with the police officer.
It's really important also how your friend called off for work.
So have the work also like verify like yeah, she actually
didn't come in on so and so dates to show even more evidence
on it. Another comment.
Wow. As a final touch, she attacks
(42:36):
you by throwing a plate at you for not wanting to be his potty
girl. I'm glad to know you're OK and
that you're out of that disgusting relationship, man.
And it's not just any plate but one he knew that she loved and
was for special occasions. Man, I really sucks that OP like
(42:56):
actually like tried it because obviously she knew she didn't
like it, but you know, you don'tknack it until you try it type
of saying I get that. But I'm glad that she like stood
her ground after trying it because she would have kept
doing it and it would have stillended up like this when she like
decided not to. Or if she said, oh, I'm not in
the mood for it, dude would still act out.
(43:18):
Dude. Dude is woo wee.
You should probably drop his name to save other people.
All right, let's go ahead and gointo this next story from No
stupid questions titled Why did the Nazis do so much record
keeping at the concentration camps of the if the whole idea
(43:40):
was to kill people and eliminatea population.
Really weird transition. I understand.
I saw that. I was like, I need to know.
I need to know what Reddit has to say about this.
I followed the Auschwitz Facebook page and other
Holocaust museums and they post the intake pictures of the
prisoners along as their fate, job, etcetera.
(44:00):
Why was all it kept so like? Well, especially since they knew
they could have been prosecuted for all of it if they lost the
war. Please no.
Hey I just always wondered this ever since I started World War
Two books way back in middle school.
So hopefully we get some insight.
We get some insight. Top comment being proper Rep.
Record keeping is essential to any organization for efficiency,
(44:24):
accuracy, and results. The Nazis were no different.
This is the answer. If it's not documented, how do
you know if your plan is workingacross the country?
It's kind of like how science has your hypothesis where you
have to kind of be like if I do A&B and you have your control
group and all that fun stuff. Woohoo, science.
(44:46):
And you expect an outcome, you have to prove it.
And that's basically what that was.
I was figuring that that's what it was going to be, especially
since they knew that they could have been prosecuted for all of
it. They lost the war.
So they were quoting O PS sentence.
And they replied they didn't know that no one had ever been
prosecuted for crimes against humanity before this.
(45:06):
They thought they wouldn't be introuble for following orders.
Yeah, also worth considering if they even considered losing the
war was an option until it started going wrong.
The majority of the leadership did not seem to consider it an
option. Yeah, and Hitler did not seem to
accept it was over until the Russians were near streets away.
(45:27):
Well, we learned something today.
OK, let's go ahead and see what else I have saved on this little
fun account, this one titled Therapist of Reddit.
What's been your biggest? I know I'm not supposed to
judge, but holy shit moments. This is on ask Reddit.
Of course, if you don't know, ask Reddit.
(45:48):
That's insane. I'm actually so happy that
you're here learning it with me.But ask Reddit is like where you
ask questions and they people answer it.
OK, top comment. Being early on in my career
while working at a community mental Health Center, I had a 17
year old client that had an 18 month old daughter and was 4 1/2
months pregnant when we began working together.
(46:11):
Oh my gosh, my goodness, that's a mouthful.
After we built enough trust in our relationship, she disclosed
that she had been repeatedly raped by her father for the past
three years. OK, he had sole custody of her
because her mom suffered from jerk addiction and had her
parental rights terminated. She reported to him to the local
(46:34):
police, a small town. However, they were friendly with
her father and didn't believe her.
They told her they would only follow through with the report
if she would her detail her sexual assault with her father
present, stating that if she could not do that they would
know she was lying. That is not a correct way to
gather evidence. That's why you always have like
(46:54):
the two people, like the victim and the person separate during
questioning. OK, small town it is, right?
OK. Her biggest fears were that her
children were biologically her father's.
She would not get a DNA test because she didn't want to look
at them or love them differently.
(47:14):
I made several reports to several authorities that
declined to investigate or remove her from the home.
Yeah, she didn't get a DNA test because this girl didn't have a
family. So she was like, at least I get
a family out of my family not being a family.
Oh, my gosh. OK.
The way you react to abuse is different for everyone.
(47:35):
In the end, my supervisor and I worked our asses off to get her
connected with a very thorough and helpful sexual assault
agency in another state. My agency and the new agency
split the cost to get her there,settled and safe.
She was 18 years old by this time.
I still think about her 20 yearslater.
I hope she's OK. OK, let's see what other people
(47:59):
are saying in the comments for their experiences.
This one is an attorney who specialized in insanity defenses
during the sentencing phase of death penalty cases.
Talked about 1 serial killer sheworked with.
She said that the most frightening person she ever met
was the father of her clients. Dad would tie his son's hands to
the rafters in their house then whip his son with electrical
(48:21):
wire. Huh.
Huh. Why why Oh my gosh, why have
children if you're if you're going to do stupid shit like
that? Another comments started my
first year at the Country Behavioral health working with
(48:44):
foster kids. Oh man OK let's see.
Shadowed my Co worker for a session with a 10 year old.
On the drive back to the office she told me that that 10 year
old is a victim of repeat child sexual abuse and has formed a
great bond with her caregivers and wants to stay with them.
However, her CPS worker was actively trying to get her back
(49:05):
with her mom who was still living with her boyfriend that
sexually assaulted the client. Her therapist continued to
advocate for the client to stay with the caregivers because
that's what the client wanted aswell.
I just cannot believe that a CSAis in a immediate Nope, not
getting your kids back if that person is still in contact or
lives with the perpetrator or isthe perpetrator.
(49:28):
I mean, the foster system's a little fucked up, but sometimes
it's the best situation for the person and you have a lot more
eyes to make sure that someone'sbad decision gets not fucking
unchecked. OK, let's read one more of this
one. I had a preteen client whose
guardian kept requesting progress notes to see how
(49:49):
they've been doing. It's against our clinic policy
for clients and parents guardians to have access to the
notes. They're allowed to have access
to everything else though. That client was very defiant to
everyone, but it was a wonderfulkid throughout their treatment
with me. When I met both with the
guardian and parent who both insisted on knowing everything
about the kid, everything started making sense once the
(50:11):
parent requested to switch therapists only because they
declined their request to the notes.
I knew how unhealthy the family dynamics were.
Good for you for making that observation.
I felt bad for the kid because they were opening up more about
the family dynamics and how theyimpacted them.
We had a good therapeutic relationships.
Very, very good on you. And This is why it's so
(50:34):
important to make sure that the people that are performing
medical treatments, whether it be therapy, a catheter,
placements, anything, you have the proper training.
That's where I still say, that'swhy I still say that that dude
probably wasn't a nurse and tookadvantage of the situation and
(50:54):
the client being in surgery. But I mean, also, if he was a
nurse and he was working the Medsurgy unit, I would see him
working that 'cause you can absolutely easily take advantage
of people because they're usually out of surgery, which
means that their pain medicine and anesthesia and all that is
still in there. That's fucked up.
Anyways, that was the first story.
(51:15):
We're going to talk about that anymore.
I have another saved post. It is from the Taco Bell
subreddit. Yes, it's actually a hilarious
subreddit. It is titled Just wanted to
share the most insane Taco Bell experience I've ever had.
And yes, I called corporate. OK, so it starts with the final
update I'm gonna roll down to. Oh, what?
(51:46):
Hold on, this dude like deleted the original just for the
update? Hold on, I'm going to go to the
dude's post. Umm Dang that sucks.
So basically, I actually did read this one when it was posted
(52:06):
and he like basically like placed a mobile order and the
people inside were like tweakingand being super creepy.
Like they dropped like acid, butit was probably the research
chemical. So it made them crazy.
Like not all they're like that, that schizo evil.
(52:27):
And they couldn't get a refund. And they told them like, Oh
yeah, talk to the, the Taco Bellapp.
And the Taco Bell app is like, no, you got to talk to the
store. And then the store was like, no,
I'm not doing that. And I guess this is an update to
that. But now I, I don't even want to
read it because it's just doesn't, you don't get, you guys
don't have the actual context. And I'm a really bad storyteller
(52:49):
if it's not in front of my face.That's why I read them and I
don't write them, but I do like writing.
But I no, OK, let's go to the next one then.
This is from No stupid questionstitled Why don't people stop
their kids from screaming anymore.
Growing up I got seriously told off If I screamed I was told it
(53:12):
was only something to do in an emergency like when being
kidnapped. Good parents.
Now every weekend or school holiday that has nice weather
many of the neighbors kids spentliterally all day outside
shouting and screaming. I'm not sure whether or not my
upbringing was right or wrong, this is just an observation.
My money's on the iPad kids. IPads have caused this because
(53:35):
kids are allowed to blast them with the fucking iPad right?
So why can't they be fucking blast in their mouth?
I have also had more neighbors than I used to, so obviously
that will affect the threat I have experienced Was my
upbringing in the minority and that actually most parents
should be letting their kids scream and shout.
I was also brought up not to make too much noise in respect
(53:56):
of the neighbors for my parents.Wrong for this.
OK, thought it might be an interesting discussion.
Thanks. And looking at the comments we
have. I work in an entertainment.
I found it more and more common for kids to sit down in the show
and just scream. Not cheer, not root for their
champion, but just blood curlingshrieking screams.
(54:17):
Never one parents are around. I do security.
This is part of my job ensuring people enjoy the show.
But any sort of genuine please don't do that gets no reaction
or worse, pushback. The ones 12 up, I just go up and
ask them if they're OK, make a big deal about do I need to call
somebody for help? Are they having a medical
emergency? Where's the pain?
Genuinely, they turn beet red and calm down.
(54:42):
Oh, that's actually smart. I like that one.
OK, let's go ahead and see this next comment.
Kindergarten teacher here working with kids for 10 years.
The past three years my studentshave been incredibly loud.
I do not understand the differences of volume even with
modeling the appropriate volume.These kids literally don't
recognize between a quiet and a loud voice past three years.
(55:02):
I'm telling you bro, this whole COVID lockdown thing could
really 'cause people to be lazy.These parents.
Oh I don't have to cook anymore,I got DoorDash.
DoorDash gives me 15% off if I spend $20.00 a month on their
membership pass. So that's less responsibility.
Which causes which you would think would allow the ability
(55:24):
for better raising and better taking care of your kids.
But no, it causes them to be like, oh, since this doesn't
matter, I have more freedom to do the things that I wanted to
do before I had kids. So I'm not going to be a parent
anymore but have kids. Oh man OK I have often wondered
(55:45):
the same thing. We could be as loud as we wanted
outside but if you screamed you had better be heard.
Or kidnap. It is really weird to me that
people are saying it is normal. Being loud and running outside
is fine. I hate when kids let out blood
curling screams outside because it's the whole crying wolf
thing. When there's a real emergency
it's dismisses kids screaming rather than kid dying.
Well I don't think it would haveaffected the outcome.
(56:06):
Kids were always screaming. And an apartment complex where I
lived as a young adult, 3 year old fell in the hot tub and
drowned. I was driving and saw the
commotion so stopped and did CPR.
But other sources of help, including my mom who was a nurse
and more qualified than I am at the time, had delayed being
unsure if they were hearing screams of play.
Screams for help. Got his pulse back a couple of
(56:27):
times but lost him three days later.
So please get your kids to stop fucking screaming outside.
Yeah, keep your kids away from the pool.
Jesus. Yeah, keep your kids away from
the pool unless you want to, like, go get them, like
professionally, like trained. But if you can only afford an
iPad for your kid to be raised, you probably can't afford the
(56:49):
classes. Yeah.
So I'm glad everyone in the comments is just saying how much
they're tired of it. And nobody's nobody as a parent
is commenting because they know what they're doing.
They know I know what they're doing.
Oh real quick, this person, thispost is from the mildly
interesting. So I've read it.
It says I made a crane for my breath strip.
(57:10):
You know those little Japanese cranes for my non visual
stemmers for the people listening, it's a those
Listerine packs and it has like a little it's literally made out
of little crane. Really cool.
Go ahead and take a look on the YouTube channel for this one.
But let's go ahead and read thisnext story.
(57:31):
It will be the last one of the episode.
Let's go titled Today I Fucked Up by accidentally becoming the
neighborhood Crow Whisperer. This is my life now.
It all started innocently enough.
I saw a lone crow in my yard andtossed it a cracker.
Harmless, right? Wrong.
(57:51):
That single act of kindness seems to have spread through the
crow Grapevine, and now I have aflow blown murder of crows as my
constant companions every more. Wait, how is this problem?
Every morning I step outside andthey're there, perched in nearby
trees, crawling like they're clocking into their daily jobs.
Don't they leave like gifts? That's actually pretty badass.
(58:13):
Like, unless you're like, hopefully you're not a living in
an apartment, no, because you said you saw one in your yard.
But if you're an apartment, I hope you're not on like the
higher deck because they'd be shitting on the neighbors down
below. So they say.
They follow me on walks and yesterday won't even drop a
shiny gum wrapper at my feet. I think they're trying to pay me
(58:34):
in crow currency, which is both enduring and slightly unnerving.
Teach them what money looks like.
At this point, I've accepted my new role as their unofficial
snack provider and accidental overlord.
That's a that's a good gamertag.Accidental overlord.
I'm genuinely curious to see where this goes.
Maybe I'll end up with a crow army you already do.
(58:55):
Or a collection of shiny gifts and it's starting.
Either way, it's a wild ride andI'm here for it.
Too long, didn't read, tossed a cracker to 1 crow.
Now there's a whole squad treating me like their leader.
My mornings involve cawing shinygifts and embracing the chaos.
I hope they've been posting photos of the GIFs.
I want to see them. I want to see them.
(59:15):
Let's see what the comments say.I had the opposite experience.
I gave some food and water to aninjured, sick crow that was
dying in a field on my house. When I approached it, the crows
all around it up in the tree started flipping out.
Even years later, even after moving away for a year, they
recognized me and followed me through the neighborhood,
squawking at me aggressively andpicking up little branches and
dropping them on me. You're like the cursed Disney
(59:40):
Princess. Apparently crows and other birds
tend to investigate a death and attempt to learn from the
experience and assign blame. So just by trying to help the
little guy out, I got blamed forhis death because I was at the
scene of the crime before he died.
Oh, wrongfully convicted of a murder by a murder.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
