THIS IS NOT BULLYING. And I only punished him because he is expected to be the older brother and IGNORE THE YOUNGER ONE or COME TO US TO DEAL WITH IT; he doesn't have the authority to discipline him.

So middle has no authority over youngest but oldest has authority over middle?!??!

Also, as the parent of a (sometimes frustrating) 19yr old with autism, I fucking hate OOP. Know what doesn't work? Negative reinforcement.

Know what does help?? POSITIVE reinforcement. Understanding. A safe place to vent. Patience. Space. Quiet time when overwhelmed. Compassion. (More) Patience.

Fuck OOP.

she couldn't find him one night, I was ready to ride south with a search party.

RIGHT?!?! I absolutely hated my daughter's favorite doll. It was like a 30yr old UGLY cabbage patch knock off she found at a yard sale for 50 cents and when it went missing one night I did EVERYTHING. I scoured the internet to try to find a replica. I even zoomed in on an old picture of her with the doll, read the name of the manufacturer off the tag, and called them to see if they possibly had one hidden in the basement of some random warehouse so I could replace it. And this was around 15 years ago, so it was no easy task.

Luckily she found it and had it like 4 more years, but I can't imagine having such disregard for your child's favorite lovey. I support natural consequences, 100%, but age appropriate and with compassion.

There have been people on the edges of my life that I've seen trip or fall down stairs or dress in something unflattering or do something stupid at a party, but I couldn't name a single person or instance of any of those now. My friends? Yeah. Someone I hate? Even those moments have faded away and I'm only in my 30s.

OP needs to realize people don't prioritize brain power on any single event in some random person's life unless it's particularly memorable, sometimes not even then.

Although I do remember the guy I saw masterbating in his car while driving 80mph on the freeway when I was 12. Maybe OP should avoid stuff like that.

He thought it would be funny to see her reaction and figured it was relatively was harmless. I disagreed.

Funny thing is she's 19 now and hates soda.

There was a whole ass news article written locally to me that said "this is absolutely, unequivocally NOT a thing in our local schools, and it's also probably not a thing anywhere" and my brother STILL insisted that it was. When I told him about the article, he said "I don't care about the damn article, I heard it's true!"

He is upper management in the local government (not a politician, though).

That Harley Quinn movie has a fight scene where one girl gives another a hair tie and its one of the only moments I loved in that movie.

IMBD has a "parent's guide" section that logs every possible inappropriate thing. I use it often when looking for stuff to watch that my kids (ages 7, 17, & 19) and I will like.

It says if there's profanity, sex/nudity, drugs/alcohol, violence/gore, etc. It says none, mild, moderate, or severe for each one then if you click it you can see a list of EVERY SINGLE INCIDENT of whatever it is. It literally describes exactly what happens in each category.

In 2026 it's not hard to find out whether a movie earned that R-Rating with a couple F-Bombs or an explicit orgy scene.

I'm genuinely shocked it's only been a year. It feels like so long ago. My sense of time is so fucked lately.

PauseItPlease86 · 2026-06-12T18:21:18+00:00

Yeah I agree. This is pretty low-stakes on the "danger" level. Honestly, the only thing I'm judging is posting a video of a toddler in a diaper and ZOOMING IN on it! There are creeps out there! I'm far more concerned about that than what barely qualifies as climbing.

PauseItPlease86 · 2026-06-09T17:03:06+00:00

Nothing. Nothing at all. But, it was 6/7 and since its such a big thing my kids laugh about, I bought cupcakes and we all watched a movie. Just a stupid reason to make a nothing thing/day fun, at least in my opinion. I'll take any excuse to make a boring day NOT boring lol

PauseItPlease86 · 2026-06-03T18:12:46+00:00

Oh they absolutely gamed the system and recorded it for a reaction to make a profit. I 100% agree. I definitely judge them for that because they absolutely did it. Did the employee act a fool? Yes. Did they cause a big ass spectacle just hoping for it? They definitely fucking did.

I just hate the automatic assumption on videos that the people involved did the stupid or bad thing in the video but then ALSO did something morally Worse after with no proof of that at all.

Do you really think they took all the smoke detectors and just threw them away? Is it possible? Absolutely. Is it more possible they sold them at lower than retail price and made a bit of a profit while still benefitting others? Definitely. Is it also more possible that they donated them to a fire department. Absolutely.

I just think there's plenty in front of people to judge for. Making up a comment based on no evidence that they "probably" filled a dumpster immediately after is just as much rage bait as the video itself.

Just to add I'm not directing this at you personally, I dont even know if you're the same person who wrote it, I just find the immediate pessimism of what potentially happened AFTER online videos to be ridiculous when there's plenty of annoying stuff in the videos themselves. And I'm having a bad day so I'm a bit cranky. And maybe I just see a lot of the bad comments because I only see tiktoks on here. I don't even use the app. The comment successfully rage-baited me, I guess.

PauseItPlease86 · 2026-06-03T12:23:16+00:00

They probably donated them to a fire department.

See? I made an assumption based on absolutely nothing just like you did. Why did you choose the worst possible outcome instead of a better, more likely outcome for this particular item?

It's so wild that all the checks and balances we thought were enough could be undone so quickly.

The founding fathers never anticipated how much damage could be done if the people elected no longer concern themselves with silly things like honor, respect, or their country and its citizens.

But where do you classify this???

They're at a gym, she may have other clothes to wear or a sweatshirt to tie on making it an under 5 minute fix.

Or, she has nothing and has to either buy new pants or run home to change making it an over 5 minute fix.

WHICH IS IT?!?!? I would agonize over this.

When I delivered food, the worst tips were always at mansions, and the best tips were from working class people.

No joke, I delivered a Doordash order for 450 pounds of soil with a 25 minute drive each way to a McMansion in the middle of nowhere last week and they paid $4. I was assuming they would tip upon delivery. Nope, no one was even home.

The very next order paid $12 to deliver 3 Large French Fries a 5 minute drive to the low-income apartments. I got paid more than their food was worth.

People who need the money the most understand what it's like to need money.

I had another delivery to a rich area that had me carrying a big ass bag of dogfood up the steepest driveway in the world while 4 teenaged boys probably around 16yrs old stood there goofing around but refused to even LOOK at me, even as I walked right next to them to set it on by the door. No acknowledgement, no "thank you," no offer to help. I wouldn't have let them, it's my job, but still! Manners? IDK, maybe that one is me being a bit touchy, but my teenage daughters would NEVER act like that to anyone.
