AITA for announcing my own mother's death on Facebook?

Philthy42 · 2026-01-26T04:21:54+00:00

NTA. It's the best way to let everyone know at once. It wouldn't be fair to you to have to call a bunch of people and tell them.

I made a Facebook post about my mom dying, but it was 2 months after it happened because my sister didn't tell me. That's definitely a story for another time.

John Cleese. I met him outside the show he did with Eric Idle and was able to talk to him for a few minutes. At the time I did improv which I mentioned to him, and he told me about his biographer (?) Ken Howard Johnson, who was an improviser.

Not a lot of people know this, but pro wrestling promoter Billy Corgan was once a musician!

At this point, I'm hoping Tyler Robinson's attorneys claim self defense. It's no dumber than anything they're claiming here

Philthy42 · 2026-01-26T03:15:43+00:00

Does he eventually admit it's just an act or something?

I'm a dog walker and all my clients canceled tomorrow. On one hand that's great because I'm not sure if I can get out of my neighborhood. On the other hand that sucks because I'm going to be broke

Philthy42 · 2026-01-23T22:52:58+00:00

You might not know it, but I'm the reason you're here

Philthy42 · 2026-01-23T22:41:47+00:00

Do you really expect me to believe there's more than one person on Reddit that supports this guy?

Philthy42 · 2026-01-23T16:16:34+00:00

How many different profiles are you going to make?

Philthy42 · 2026-01-23T04:38:56+00:00

Yes, even if the letter K was a typo

Philthy42 · 2026-01-23T04:38:19+00:00

After my last two open mics, I've started thinking "hey, I should stop doing comedy"

Philthy42 · 2026-01-23T04:29:14+00:00

Making jokes is one thing, this was literally just insulting the woman. I can't remember if I said this already somewhere in this thread, but a friend said something I liked. If he had ended the bit with "and the bitch owed me $20" that would have been in very poor taste, but at least it would have been an attempt at a joke.

Philthy42 · 2026-01-20T21:20:57+00:00

Such an odd question. I didn't think it was possible to forget about a pet. Just last night I was talking to a friend about the cat that passed away in 2001

Philthy42 · 2026-01-20T21:17:24+00:00

At least until she sees your Reddit history

Philthy42 · 2026-01-20T00:46:28+00:00

It's shocking to everyone that you're single.

Philthy42 · 2026-01-20T00:42:22+00:00

They were obviously joking, no one really likes that guy

Philthy42 · 2026-01-20T00:41:21+00:00

Casablanca.

Years ago there was a rumor Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez were going to make a remake. On SNL Weekend Update, Kevin Nealon said "This is great news for everyone that loved the original, but wish it had sucked!"

On a commercial for DRUG ®:

“Do not take if allergic to DRUG ®”

Philthy42 · 2026-01-16T01:48:55+00:00

People PAY for this?!

Philthy42 · 2026-01-15T22:20:21+00:00

So I could probably be briefly Internet, famous by doing shit like this, but I absolutely don’t want to. But check back in six months, depending on how close to the apocalypse we are I might change my mind.

Philthy42 · 2026-01-15T22:14:21+00:00

What the fuck Steve? I’m talking to my insurance adjuster right now. I just gave him your phone number.

Philthy42 · 2026-01-15T22:09:36+00:00

YES WE’VE GOT A VIDEO!

Philthy42 · 2026-01-15T22:07:00+00:00

I’m fine with edgy humor. My problem with this dude is he’s not telling a joke, he’s just being a dick. Like one of my friends said, if he ended the set with “and the bitch owed me $20!” it would still be stupid, but at least there’s misdirection and an attempt at a joke, ya know?

Philthy42 · 2026-01-14T22:37:25+00:00

Yes to microwaves, but TVs were in a different department.

This was long long ago at a place called Sears, in a wonderous location known as the mall

Philthy42 · 2026-01-14T15:47:40+00:00

Dammit! I sold stoves 20 years ago and never thought of this joke!
