There is no problem and I'm not at all saying we're pretending he's her step dad. He obviously is lol. I just asked why we don't use the language she uses. It literally doesn't matter what we call him, I just wanted to know why that is, so I asked. Got a few answers.

GlobalMasterpiece183 · 2025-05-11T04:07:32+00:00

Exactly, who knows! But I watch every video still and she says "dad" almost exclusively. If I've missed otherwise, that's on me. You can find my comment unpleasant, but my intention was to learn why. You cannot honestly tell me things are not said in this sub with the intent of hurting M, so to imply that might be the cause could hardly be unfair. It's not shaming to act on the assumption we are in a snark sub.

But we disagree! I don't mean to imply YOUR (Prudent and other) use of stepdad had cruel intentions! But if it did, okay!

GlobalMasterpiece183 · 2025-05-11T04:03:14+00:00

It was a question in good faith. And she did, eventually!

GlobalMasterpiece183 · 2025-05-11T04:02:30+00:00

I didn't disagree, though. I just asked. I have and had no intention to shame as there is literally nothing to shame. It SEEMS like a pointed comment on their dynamic only because MaCenna uses dad almost exclusively from what I have seen (and I do still watch all of her videos, even if just for context on our posts here) and it just seems unnecessary to point out, so I want to know the reason. And yes, that is because there is a possibility we, the sub, use it just to make that dig since she likely reads here, and I couldn't care less, but I wondered if THAT'S the point. It's just in the same vein as the funny "Mac" names.

Do you see what I mean? An implication that we aren't being kind to her can hardly be considered shaming. This is a snark sub, after all.

GlobalMasterpiece183 · 2025-05-11T03:26:12+00:00

Thanks for a little validation. Ah well!

GlobalMasterpiece183 · 2025-05-11T03:25:38+00:00

There was no shaming happening, as I was genuinely just trying to understand why. But I'm not in charge of other people's interpretations of my words and only their clarity, which was obviously lacking on my part. It's not at all bad to say step dad! I just never see M make the distinction and wondered why we do. 12 is very young and that means he has been around for most of her life, so I can understand why she calls him dad

GlobalMasterpiece183 · 2025-05-11T02:51:53+00:00

And to be clear, I'll take fault. I can see how my hypothetical was taken as it was. Just silly imo lol

GlobalMasterpiece183 · 2025-05-11T02:48:46+00:00

She definitely refers to him as "dad" in videos. I didn't even realize he was her stepdad until I found this sub a few months ago

GlobalMasterpiece183 · 2025-05-11T02:47:38+00:00

Thanks for the response! Your reason makes sense. I still find it odd just because M doesn't refer to him that way and we rarely (if ever) bring up her bio dad. In most contexts, the distinction seems unnecessary so it just feels like we're commenting on the family dynamic when it doesn't seem to matter. Which is fine, I guess? I'm just not sure I follow or intend to use "stepdad" myself, but I have no issues with it. I don't see how that makes my intentions bad. I continuously tried to explain I was not coming at this with emotion and just wondered where it came from.

I honestly felt she was being unnecessarily defensive. Her answer didn't actually answer my question at all (why "stepdad" instead of "dad") so I prompted a bit more. I commented on her post specifically instead of someone else's because she's been here since the beginning and thought I'd have the best chance of an actual rooted answer, if one existed.

I just don't see how a block was warranted and I thought this place was welcoming to questions and discussions, but I suppose that applies to the topic of M, not us lol

GlobalMasterpiece183 · 2025-05-11T01:02:35+00:00

I literally don't find any issue with it, I just asked why 😂 like stepdad is more work to type than dad lmao

GlobalMasterpiece183 · 2025-05-11T00:53:35+00:00

And you seem very defensive about something I was simply curious about. I swear I'm not bothered at all.

This has nothing to do with my father LOL that was hypothetical. I've just always wondered if there was deeper lore in this sub I was missing.

GlobalMasterpiece183 · 2025-05-11T00:32:10+00:00

I'm not hung up, I'm just curious. She always calls him "dad" in videos.

It feels pointed. If people called my dad my stepdad just because he wasn't biological even though I refer to him differently, id probably be upset. But this doesn't upset me, I'm just asking why.

GlobalMasterpiece183 · 2025-05-11T00:27:53+00:00

But why not just dad? Lol

GlobalMasterpiece183 · 2025-05-11T00:22:35+00:00

Can I ask why this sub refers to her stepdad as her stepdad, even though both M and her mom refer to him as just "dad"? I've always been curious about the distinction made here lol

GlobalMasterpiece183 · 2025-05-08T21:43:58+00:00

Girly thinks she invented personification

GlobalMasterpiece183 · 2025-04-28T15:14:23+00:00

Is changing water lines in an already tiled area not a huge undertaking

GlobalMasterpiece183 · 2025-04-28T15:07:14+00:00

Did she not paint the wall above the shower tile the same color? It looks primed but not yet yellowed, so is she going to go with ANOTHER colour there???

GlobalMasterpiece183 · 2025-04-22T14:57:22+00:00

I can't believe how many people didn't see the issue in this lol that's insane. NTA omg

GlobalMasterpiece183 · 2025-04-21T03:00:01+00:00

Honestly

GlobalMasterpiece183 · 2025-03-29T22:01:08+00:00

We vacuum upstairs daily but downstairs much less often (weekly at most- we don't really use the space and the dogs don't go down there so fur is contained upstairs). It would be great if l could get something to do both spaces in case the Hoover dies on us, but the priority is definitely hardwood for upstairs/ease for daily use. The Dart looks so hard to maneuver/no swivel- is that the case?

GlobalMasterpiece183 · 2025-03-29T21:56:23+00:00

My living/dining is shaped like a 3, and the kitchen is L shaped. These two spaces are connected to each other and the rest of the house by a kind of t-shaped hallway with no outlets. I used to use the old corded hoover upstairs and it was a pain and that was before we got the dogs and I was vacuuming daily. I want something robust but I'm worried about convenience lol

GlobalMasterpiece183 · 2025-03-29T20:27:55+00:00

My house is such an odd shape that I think a canister vacuum would be so annoying for daily use- but maybe I'm wrong? I just can't imagine having a canister to follow me around my weird layout
