Summary

Smosh hosts Shane, Chance, and Angela read and discuss Reddit stories centered on holiday gift-giving mishaps and awkward family situations. The episode explores themes of relationship communication, gift-giving expectations, and family dynamics through stories ranging from a Roomba Christmas gift controversy to a bizarre 'Saint Nick' family tradition.

Insights
  • Gift-giving in relationships is fundamentally about demonstrating understanding and emotional intimacy, not just practical utility or expense
  • Passive-aggressive communication and unresolved resentment in relationships often manifest through seemingly unrelated conflicts that resurface repeatedly
  • Family dynamics and boundaries become critical stress points during holidays when different expectations and traditions collide
  • Lack of effort in understanding a partner's interests and preferences signals deeper relationship disconnection beyond the specific gift
  • Humor and levity can be effective tools for addressing uncomfortable situations, but only when underlying issues are acknowledged
Trends
Growing awareness of gift-giving as emotional labor and relationship indicator rather than transactional exchangeIncreasing discussion of boundary-setting with in-laws and extended family during holiday gatheringsRecognition that practical gifts without emotional consideration can damage relationship satisfaction and trustHoliday season stress correlating with relationship reassessment and breakup decisionsSocial media (Reddit) becoming primary venue for relationship conflict resolution and validation-seekingGenerational differences in holiday traditions and expectations creating family tensionShift toward questioning traditional gender roles in domestic labor and holiday responsibilities

Hi, welcome to Smosh Reads Reddit Stories. I'm Shane and today's theme is holiday I believe it is November 29th that this is being posted which means it's kind of the right in the middle of the holiday season It Christmas time the holiday season is beginning for many Things giving just happened Halloween just happened like a couple weeks ago We're taking away our pumpkin pancake batter and we're replacing it with you got a candy cane you yeah, not me Yeah, I'm peppermint. It's our pumpkins are allowed in December. They are but we're shifting a little bit to a more pepper We're going peppermint you're going peppermint we're shifting slowly. I'm going eggnog. Oh hell. Yeah, I can get on that train Yeah, like pumpkin is still a part of Christmas But I think as we leave Thanksgiving and enter into December we're slowly doing more peppermint. Yeah Okay, okay, I can't get I respect that for you guys I can't always get on the like peppermint everything vibe. That's fair like I don't think that is fair Thank you. You have to hear her out here who out peppermint Come on out peppermint By the way, I'm joined by chance in Angela Thank you both for being here thanks for having us yeah And I was saying before we started this that this is the time of year that I'm most in the like the spirit Like I am in the holiday zone like fresh from Thanksgiving end of November Like first couple weeks of December by the time Christmas hits I'm usually a little like kind of like done like I'm kind of like burned out. Oh god. No, you know I'm making sure it's a steady flow. Yeah, oh you keep you keep pace and I'm a hard like December first starts now we go I'm like as soon as I'm digested all the food from Thanksgiving. It's Christmas time. Okay. Yeah growing up It was like thanks giving's over now it's Christmas. Yeah, but you're December first I don't have a weird 5-bit period where you don't think anything. I respect like putting up the I'm super date that's when I sleep Okay, we got all sorts of holiday stories in here some from Halloween Probably some from Christmas time. I don't know all over the place But let's begin this one first one comes from December 20th 2019 Am I the asshole for buying my wife Arumba for Christmas? That's a great gift actually think that's a pretty good gift now is this saying hey It depends clean up or it's saying hey, you don't have to do that anymore Let's hear depends on the context, but a room I like I'm thinking for myself Arumba Doh absolutely. I'm like, oh yeah, give me a room. Well, let's see This happened last year, but since it still gets brought up during arguments every now and then and I just discovered this subreddit I decided to check what you guys think me and my wife have two children a 15 year old girl and 11 year old boy My wife has been a stay-at-home mom since the birth of our second child I 46 year old man work full-time and earn a six figure salary My job is highly stressful requires me to travel a lot and mostly sleep in hotels I only get to come home to my family on every second weekend on average Despite working a lot. I am glad to do it so that my family can live a comfortable life last year I decided to buy my wife Arumba for Christmas My wife tends to be the one who vacuums the house So I presumed that she would like this present as it would free her of this chore as she unpacked the present She was heavily offended and did not hesitate to show it which made the whole situation quite uncomfortable as my parents and other members of the family were also present She argued that this should not be a present directed at her but at the whole family as it is the entire family's responsibility to clean up the house Since I work and I'm the sole source of income in the family and she is a stay-at-home mother I think it is apparent that she should take on responsibilities such as taking care of the kids and maintaining the house The gift was intended to somewhat relieve her of this burden I personally would have loved to have received a Christmas gift that it would have somehow made it possible for me to spend less time working As cheesy as it sounds I think that time is one of the most precious gifts And that Rumba would have definitely bought some time for her time that she could use to do whatever she pleased instead of vacuuming Unfortunately one year later this still often gets brought up during arguments often coupled with her crying So am I the asshole in this situation? Edit I should also add that I would have never gifted my wife a vacuum cleaner or anything along these lines I saw the Rumba as a robot that would fully take over this task which is why I thought it was a good idea Edit number two. I asked her numerous times before Christmas last year What she would have liked to receive and she repeatedly told me that she does not want anything I was left to guess and shows the most practical gift that I was certain she would be able to make use of Okay You thoughts? Yeah, I don't know. What do you think? Okay We're not doing this. No, I swear to God. I swear to God. It's really God. Okay. No, I swear to God This is another one of those stories where I Don't like a lot of how it's written. Yes I To me like I'm just like unless she had asked for a Rumba Um, and you're not seeing your wife much at all It's like cool. You got her a gift that's solely just like focused on like oh well you're staying home mother Here's something to help you out with that stuff I'm like, I don't know. I think It sounds like there's a big separation between the two of them He starts it off. I talked about how like we argue all the time and she brings it up with her crying And I'm just like it sounds like you guys need to actually connect on an emotional level and like be Like people to each other. Yeah, just rolls in your family Yeah, I think like the idea of a gift if if she didn't specify or mention wanting that It doesn't really bring out like a closeness or an intimacy You know what I mean like I feel like especially between like two partners Your gift is something like oh, I know you didn't think of this So I thought or I thought you would never buy this for yourself. So this right But just like something that helps you from with day to day that you didn't express Wanting but you were just like this will help you Doesn't like bring you closer together like a gift is like hey I thought of you when I saw this. Yeah, you know what I mean like and that's a sweet thing But this isn't and they've been married a long time because they have a you know A son or a daughter who's 15 so they've clearly been married a long time It just sounds like and I mean, I'm not a couple's therapist I'm not like and anyway qualified and nor have I experienced being married that long or or having kids like that But it just feels like they've lost track of like what's important to each other Yeah, but it just I don't know this reads as just kind of like hey man you need to talk to your wife Is my take away or just like hey man throwing a bracelet Yeah, it's it's I kind of it makes me want to ask more questions. Yes, that's my big take away I think like hey, what else do you guys do like you're never there So when you are there do you guys ever like hang out right? Yeah, like my dad got my mom like a new set of pots for Christmas recently But it like it was very much like well you cook for me so Okay, but I got you a tub of where see but you knew I needed it Right, but it's also a matter of what like knowing each other exactly and spending time The I don't know if they do I don't know if there's such a thing is like I know it was nice to put away by the way. It was really good to oh yeah There's no such thing to me as like a bad a bad gift Objectively of like that is a bad gift like anything can be a good gift For the right if the person wants that and that's you're you're on the same page and you understand them But that's kind of what a gift is right is like showing someone like I understand you and I see you Yeah, and she didn't feel seen It feels like they're not on the same page at all. Yeah, I agree. I'm forgiving him for the Rumba Uh in that she didn't say what she wanted and not everyone is good at giving gifts So it's just like okay, I don't this is not my this is not my love language I don't do this well and I know that about myself and he says that What I can't forgive him for is that he says time is his love language and he's not giving that to her He's actively saying how he doesn't Spend time with his family and his wife even though he Treasures it so deeply how deeply do you treasure it? It sounds like the price of your salary is how much you treasure at that time Yeah, I don't think he says that time is his love-love language He says I think that time is one of the most precious gifts and that and that Rumba would have definitely bought some of some time for her Like she wouldn't have to do as much around the house because the Rumba would be doing it But he's recognizing the time is yeah is important and give and he's not there and he's not giving it to Give her that time give her a vacate say I got you I got us this cruise That we get to spend quality time together. Yeah I I see it is like there's other issues going on. Yeah, I don't like his reaction to it And the way he's explaining it to us. Yeah, and then just bringing up like yeah, she brings up whenever we argue And it's accompanied by her crying. I'm like is that supposed to make me feel bad for you because it doesn't yeah It's also makes me have a lot of questions definitely do you guys have do you guys have Rumba's? I I want you to ask him about the Rumba's name. He yet he his Rumba is I had a Rumba for a bit I had like a cheaper Rumba like because Rumba's are expensive. Yeah But like I don't like I got a one-on-one like sale that was really good and it worked fine for a while But to be honest, I fucking love vacuuming. Oh, I love I love that I love mopping doing I like cleaning I just don't do it enough Oh, yeah, he wants you to ask him what is Rumba's name? What's your Rumba's name? Sephirah Sephirah Yeah, named after the dragon from air gone. Oh, I was gonna say cuz it's like a circle No, okay Are sapphires circles? No, I meant like the it's it's It's like a circle so spear spear god. No, or sapphire sapphire guys Whoa, that was awesome you guys. It's like a note. I think I think also I agree that a Rumba is not necessarily a bad gift. I think the problem is that since they're in the same household It can be seen as like well. This is a gift for kind of all of us, right? Like it's like This is for our whole house as opposed to like this is just for you And it also does feel like he doesn't really talk about his wife as a person in this He talks about his wife as the stay-at-home mother. Yeah, and how this is like her responsibilities is like Yeah, but which about Christmas man like this is supposed to be about you guys giving gifts to each other as human beings He does say since I work and I'm the sole source of income in the family and she is a stay-at-home mother I think it is apparent that she should take on responsibilities such as taking care of the kids and maintaining the house It's like cool. So is that what this gift is like about or is this about like Giving her something she wants and he's like oh, but it's about the time she'll get I don't know I the verdicts is asshole and I I can see I can see that yeah And I think a lot of that is how he wrote this and it shows it indicates how he views his wife Yeah, it's transactional. Yeah, and I'm like dude if a year after Christmas You're writing a post online talking about why like what's the deal with this situation? I'm like man You need to do some introspection and then also talk to your wife. Yeah We got some comments here You're the asshole. That's a gift for the household and not her It shows you primarily regard her as a housekeeper and not a partner What interests does she have that are not about serving you in the family? Yeah, someone said you're the asshole O.P. had you realized it offended her and apologized instead of defending it I feel like it would have been more of a no no one's the asshole Regardless of whether you personally would have enjoyed the gift or not She didn't like it and told you it offended her I see how it comes off to her that you think of her as the housekeeper and not your wife However, you could have redeemed yourself and apologized you and you didn't yeah, there was no apology Yeah, you didn't which further implied the original thought of her being just a housekeeper So someone said you're the asshole. This is a rookie mistake Husband thinks wife will appreciate a machine to make her work easier wife thinks my husband sees me primarily as a housekeeper and not as a romantic partner If you want to relieve her of this one burden That's a nice thought but don't make it a Christmas gift make it a contribution to the welfare of the household That's what your wife meant when she said this should not be a present directed at her but at the whole family I agree yeah, I agree because it almost feels like a gift that's like hey reminder of what you all you got to do Yeah, remember remember though you got a clean yeah as opposed to like hey like I Yeah, you know, and it's it just kind of I know he's not there, but it's yeah It's like I said it's indications of being like hey, I've listened to you and I know what you like I know what you enjoy in life It's Merry Christmas. I put a bow on your to-do list Yeah, yeah, that's actually you you know what Angela you cooked thanks you cook I thought I did you cook there um Yeah, and look some people love practical gifts like I do enjoy a practical gift But like if that's an aspect of who your wife is yeah cool, but it doesn't seem like that's the case Yeah, some people like gifts that they asked for and some people like surprises, but this isn't either of those This is just something that really isn't magical or nice. It's like a cool. It's like you go into like a cool tech magazine You're just like oh this one No All right Well, let's move on to our next story This is a confession it comes from true off my chest. This was posted Christmas day of 2023 guy. I'm seeing legitimately think Santa Claus is real How old? Okay, let's find out how old do you think let's let's guess at an age 23 23 I was gonna guess 23 Okay, let's make it interesting 27 I think he actually believes Santa is a real person in some capacity and thinks he delivers Presence to his family personally. I'm probably going to leave tomorrow because it's been awful so far And I just want out. I'll call him Adam Adam who is a 25 year old man is from a pretty rural area up in the mountains keeping it vague on purpose And his family are what I'd consider religious extremists He told me this before I 23 year old woman came to see them for Christmas that they were very religious as our minds So I thought it would be similar. I'm not seeing my own family as I just have my abusive mom left and we are no contact Well, okay I've only been seeing him a couple months and his beliefs have only come up minimally and Santa Claus was not part of that L.o.l. Well, yeah, I don't even think we've mentioned it at all despite walking around Walmart with Christmas decorations slash holiday stuff on shelves and him saying he wishes there was more Christian decor Adam and his family call Santa saint Nick to start off with He has a large family and we had a lot of regular Christmas Eve activities all day Including cooking breakfast and dinner with his family sitting around and playing with the children going to a church event around lunchtime When we went to church his mom would shake her head disapprovingly at some references towards Santa Claus the pastor made And would whisper to his younger brother and her nephew next to her. I didn't hear what she said When we made dinner she told me to fix a plate for Saint Nick and I laughed and said Cookies aren't enough and Adam shot me a horrified look I felt the gaze of his mother and she gave me this sort of fake smile and said no, hunn that's not a filling meal So I loaded up about as much as I gave Adam and the men in his family and put it on a plate His mom put tin foil over it and put it in the fridge in the garage at some point about two thirds his family left The children went to bed after about an hour of it being dark Adam's mom told them to go settle into bed so Saint Nick can have his dinner and start to deliver presents This gave me the implication that he would start his night here Rather than just stop by and have cookies and leave. I'm not sure His mom read a couple passages out of the Bible about family as we sit sat around their wood burning stove And we discussed my family situation a bit Adam's dad then told Adam and I as well as his little sister to go to the guest house to sleep It was about 9 pm I changed in the bathroom and said goodnight to them and was about to walk out the door with Adam When his mom snapped her fingers and said hunn you're forgetting the most important part of Christmas Adam looked pale for a sec before kind of nervously laughing And step back to the door holding my hand We went out into the garage where he grabbed the plate I said something like she's really serious about Santa getting his food, huh Trying to lighten the mood. He squeezed my hand really hard and said yes, I'd say it's serious We went back into we went back into microwave the meal And we awkwardly stood there in front of the microwave watching the plate turn around I felt his parents gaze on the back of my head. I said something again I can't even remember what kind of light hearted about Santa having a full stomach if he eats like this at every house She's killing it. She's killing it. He's really doing well Adam gripped my hand harder than he did before and the first sign of affection He had given me in front of his parents all night and said his name is St. Nicholas And he only eats his dinner here. Don't be disrespectful in our home It sounds calm all typed out like that, but the way he said it gave me chills His parents didn't say anything and I felt like I was going to cry, huh I left to walk in the backyard to the guest house and his sister was waiting in this mostly empty living room area She said she started the wood burning stove and she showed me where to sleep a twin bed next to her and said Adam would be in the next room over with his younger brother I just laid down the brother He's going over there. She's sleeping next to the sister Yeah, I just laid down and I heard Adam come in maybe half an hour later and go straight to bed I've just been laying here unable to get sleep because I'm so anxious LOL and I already hear movement in the main house at this point and I don't know what to think I thought after everyone had left mostly small children the saint Nick talk would end I think his family or at least him and everyone younger legitimately believe this is a real person His parents are really strict and live relatively off grid and isolated I barely have service here. So I'll see if this posts because I can't even text my friends s os right now I feel like I'm in a horror movie where they believe Santa is like a distant uncle or something Does anyone know of any traditions like this? They killed a pig sometime in the last week as well as a couple chickens and the whole family is coming back tomorrow And maybe it'll be less weird with more people being here a few of his cousins gave me a more modern vibe But rather than the rest of his nuclear family But I don't know I might just head back and stay at my apartment a couple hours away alone I don't think I can continue seeing him. It's just been so weird this Okay, I have theories This is some demon shit This is some ritualistic they are haunted by something. I don't know what kind of spirit it is pretending to be santa I was gonna say reading through this story. I'm like she's like yeah, how they believe I'm like I'm like No, I think something's coming No, there is This family I don't think his Something is a knife Definitely going to eat that plate. I know what it's probably gonna eat the pig too that they slaughtered that we maybe They take some pigs and chickens That's like a ritual shit. It's like a Christmas get out. Oh Yes without all the other stuff. Yeah, no, this is like there's there's a few movies. I'm thinking of but it's like no Cranpas it's it's like the ritual. It's like yeah, a demon is gonna show up It's like we have to feed it everybody be cool Just go to your room just go to your room and none of that yeah Name a Satan Nick played out and you need to give him a long meal wood keeps burning the entire night You'll be fine. I think this is my new favorite story. Yeah, I need to know the end. I am terrified by the way Comments sounds like you stumbled onto a Santa worshipping cult very strange bazaar Someone said reading this at 7 a.m. Waiting for my kids to wake up on Christmas morning And I don't mean to make light of a very awkward situation, but I am laughing so hard Someone said if this is real I think you should get out now I honestly probably would have just left in the middle of the night. I'd walk if I had to now see That's how you get killed if you had right there is how you get killed you sleep the night and they have done this a million times You say Then you're the pig if you leave you're the pig yeah, you must go you must go You know they got this master down since he was a child. They've got the ritual down. You know The ritual fuck with the ritual Just stay there for the ritual. You know how this works in a horror movie She gets in the middle of the night night gets in her car drives all the way to her apartment hours Gets gets home gets to her apartment goes. Oh my god I just need to grab like a drink or something she opens up her fridge and the tin foil dinner that they prepared is in her fridge and the family's dead the next day and the family's dead and you're the pig and it is Christmas morning And you got a room, but This is some fucking wild shit guys. This is wild This is like I was like that on edge. I was like this is not Santa This is not the the Damian on my shoulders like it's probably fake, but I'm enjoying well Oh no Yeah Something's not right. This is also the thing There are families with some weird traditions out there and there's also cults. Yeah, they can exist. Yes Families with weird traditions and cults small thin line Update Oh It is Santa I swear to god if they wake up and there's fucking I don't know hot wheels and barbies and they just move on and they open gifts Normal Christmas Worse case scenario lose my fucking mind lose my mind. I need to see a demon now. Yeah, I want to be like is there blood on the gifts? The update I'm still alive not dead Oh Holidays ended horribly and my relationship is over Probably for the best now that I've had time away from him talk to my friends red comments etc I essentially ruined Christmas St. Nick literally left the food untouched because there was a non-believer in the house and Adam's mom made a point of it being because I was there and I was essentially barred from seeing him and called a degenerate in front of his whole family I think this is it. I can't imagine typing out another few paragraphs of the worst Christmas I've ever had completely alone with crazy religious nuts and in my fields only for it to be called a horror movie in the making Like yeah, I know my life right now just sucks I wish there was more to say or it was more dramatic for everyone wanting that but I just don't have it in me I wish I had a real family and relationships that don't suck I wish I had answers for you of why his family is so crazy around the holidays and art normal people That let their son date girls outside their borderline omniscience style. I don't know the end no There was no she didn't say anything about the cuz she woke up and the mom said he didn't need the meal St. Nick didn't come because who ate the meal last year? Well, no The mom is saying like St. Nick didn't need it because they're you know Who eats the meal probably the mom probably the mom someone's eating the meal shame I think this is a Friday the 13th situation the mom is really the killer Did I spoil Friday the 13th to you? I've never seen it. Sorry Halloween's already passed. Why is it always the woman? Okay, that's only the OG then Jason for he's comes back and starts killing people Okay, this I need to I need people to talk We need to know she needs to just drop their names. This just sounds okay This to me this to me rides on this to me rides on super controlling religious ridiculous family who found an opportunity to just make to control him Their son and make him break up with like just a shame and and I'm like be awful But to not have the ability to think critically like that. I guess well I mean a lot of people like that There's a lot it your circumstances sometimes you don't have control over that and your and your mindset is so limited and you didn't choose that It just happened because of the way you're raised. Yeah Sorry, this is extreme. I'm real I love that they've found they have their own religion They made their own religion. I was gonna say like no, I'm talking about the Bible and stuff I was like this is a biblical No, if anything the Christians were are like do not worship anything that isn't Jesus. Yeah No Santa Claus is very much like tech what Santa Claus not be sacrilegious in a weird way like I mean a lot of Christians Are like yeah a lot of Christian. Yeah, cuz it is it is all based in American or just based in capitalism It's consumerism like that's all it is What's Christian Christmas decorations like is that just crosses? Well, uh, I'm nativity seen is probably the religious Camels It's like Jesus Jesus focus. It was always funny like as a kid like we were a very like Like Santa Claus like whoa like Holly Jolly Christmas How you were you were Jolly but you go to some friends houses and it's like oh this is religious Christmas house We have a mix of both we'd have like like route off sitting next to like an activity scene. We're like TJ max Christmas hell. Yeah Yeah Well damn Ha not much to say I just need I need more information when I was a kid For some class it was either like Sunday school or in something We made our own nativity scenes. Oh, and my mom still has mine to this day. It's the most cursed thing I've ever oh, we have to bring it in it's like Jesus is an egg. What do you mean? Jesus is an egg? I like rolled up a piece of clay and he's an egg Okay, the wife's an egg Jesus and the wife and the god God's bird I'm gonna bring it in because it's weird looking it looks like a mateese. Oh what well that sounds amazing Yeah, yeah, it sounds professional anyway. I'm trying. Did you guys ever get coal? Did you know but my little brother did really yeah devastating wait and he got zero gifts He got he got a couple gifts, but like I got way more and he got he had to pull up a whole lot of us I've never heard of that actually I've never heard a pair of fucked up bad fully come to it. What do you fucking do? It was just bad at school. He was getting bad grades. It was like a lot of things. Oh Yeah, did he fire up the grill? No, that was my stepdad's job. He's not allowed to touch the grill Wow, I've never heard of anyone actually getting coal. Yeah, especially mixed with other presents Yeah, maybe like some stuff. That's kind of makes it worse. It was really rough thinking about it Now my brother. I got my ex's coal for Chris's we had broken up and we still got You own coal. I got a straight up coal I got it like I had written nice really nice note I just remember I never told you You see also last year I got yeah last year I got my ex's a Christmas present But we'd already broken up by that time too. I remember this and then I We like came over to talk and I like had the Christmas present there and I was gonna give it to him And after we talked I was like well, I'm gonna go and I walked you to come with me. He's like yeah We walked all foods that I returned to his kid He has no idea He walked with me to return his own gift I've never told anyone that either I think I'm about to told you that tonight. Tell you that I told you you return the gift. Yeah, oh my god I'm going to go with more time You just keep holding I love that the Christmas tree.

Yeah, what are you gonna do this Christmas? They're so gonna clip that and he's so gonna see that clip Well, let's move on to our next story Okay Oh Our next story is a Halloween story And this is very like but this is also very like fall festive story here. All right Am I the asshole October 29th of 2020? Okay, would I be the asshole if I put a birthday hat on my neighbor's pumpkin? Okay Because it's been out for a year I share a porch I share a porch with one neighbor who is notorious for not cleaning up after herself or her kids For example One time there was a broken longboard sitting right in front of their door that they would step over every day to get into their unit For seven months they just ignored it until one day I asked the oldest kid who's 15 a 15-year-old boy to please clean it up He's a good kid and instantly threw it away. I told him thank you and that was that now I know I could have cleaned it up myself But I don't want to assume that they didn't want it. I don't know. Maybe it had sentimental value Plus I constantly clean up the shared porch throwing away trash picking up cigarette butts sweeping clearing cobwebs I have known her to sweep the porch all of one time in the six years she has lived there Last year October 2019 I bought several small sugar pumpkins and placed them on my porch next to my jack-o-lanterns After Halloween, I threw all of them away in an unused wooded area next to my apartment complex So they could decompose the next day I found one of the sugar pumpkins back on the porch outside of her door I know that it was one I had bought because of the particular markings on it Okay, weird, but whatever. I'm glad someone is enjoying it I figured she would throw it away after Thanksgiving then after Christmas then after New Year's Well, it's now been a year and the pumpkin is still there. It is Nasty. It looks like it has practically melted into the porch. Oh She has put Halloween decorations all around it and still hasn't cleaned it up I think it's gross But left it there on principle because I'm tired of cleaning up after a grown woman We work opposite shifts now, so I never see her I also don't have her phone number because she is constantly changing it I was thinking of leaving her a note asking her to please clean it up But I'm worried it will somehow come across as rude So I think I might have a little fun with it I'm considering putting one of those little pointy birthday hats on it and a science saying happy first birthday over it Personally, I think it would be hilarious and get the point across But my husband thinks we should just suck it up and clean it up again I don't want to do so out of principle So reddit would I be the asshole if I celebrated the pumpkins first birthday Um, okay, we have a photo of I guess the pumpkin Yes Oh my god, I bet it's fucking disgusting Basically gone that is disgusting that is so gross. Oh that ruined the yard I I stay in the concrete I hate to say it like I would be someone who would end up cleaning up because I'm like well That's a health hazard for all of us. I'm like that's what's what's coming out of that now And why is it not hey the pumpkins rotting and it smells a little weird. Can you clean them up? Yeah, I mean that's that's what It's like hopefully they would listen and do that. What's worse than a pumpkin rotting Um in front of your door is a pumpkin rotting in front of your door holding a sign with a hat on yeah I mean like like if you put that that's not going away either. No I think that's gonna be there for a long time. I can't believe they had a broken longboard right in front of their door And they would just step over it for seven months. That feels like a curse. It does feel like a curse It also just feels like really like it took one second when he pointed it out to the kid that he was like oh Yeah, I'll just sort of way it's like Not nowhere along the line for seven months. That was an inconvenience. And I'm like a literal true Libra Where it like I'm like it needs to if I clean it up. It's not fair like I get it. It's not it's not there, but you have to keep But I'm like you have to take a batter's into your own hands You have no personal relationship to this person besides just living next to them You can't tell them that they need to be better. You can't you know what I mean like it's not We have straight up. I'm the type of person that I'm gonna like Text them hate you mind if I throw this away for you or like I will go ahead and do it and I'll be like hey you'll always be doing that Yeah, yeah, cuz yeah realistic. They should be like hey you need to do that But some people like some people just freaking don't make and especially if Those messes just disappeared in those types of people they never really learned the last time Yeah, but I tell them I'm like hey, I cleaned up your longboard or like I'm thinking I'm like I cleaned out the fridge or like I did the dishes or whatever like I'm just gonna do Tell you and I did this but you're gonna hope that set you saying that will somehow make that I hope and it never does because clearly They're they're not bothered by now like that's the problem right? It's like it's one thing if If someone is also bothered by mess, but then they're like what you need to clean it up. Yeah, it's like but they they clearly I don't know what's going on where they're yeah something could be so disgusting right in their area And they're just like yeah, I'm just like are are you not bothered by this like so so open He got rid of these pumpkins and his neighbor got one of those pumpkins put on the porch and then let it rot there forever So that's his pumpkin it take you know, it is technically his well, it's Yes, I mean obviously he threw it out and then they got it so but that's his pumpkin. Yeah, I mean it yeah I mean, it's it doesn't it's not even really a pumpkin anymore. No, it's a mess of bold and disgusting It makes me weirded out that they went into the trash and repurpose something I think it was in the woods it was in the woods which is still but they don't clean it feels like just not a click So you went into the woods to get it. I don't they went and got it after Halloween I don't know I maybe still in the other story, but I do feel like if this is also a curse And that that's not good and they're doing something funky in that of I like that I think unfortunately I would not want to see the inside of Yes, oh yeah now like The verdict is not the asshole when he's not the asshole for he could put a hat in a sign I don't think he's gonna do that he could go way further and I'd be like you're not the asshole You could leave a sign on their door. Yeah, you could knock and confront them and be like you this front porch is disgusting I understand we share this this portion like technically this is your home sort of like but Come on. This is a shared space. This is this is a health hazard for all of us Um comments not the asshole and you can always claim ignorance if she tries to start crap I'm assuming you live in town So while you would be the most obvious slash likely culprit the hat could have been placed there by any neighbor male carrier delivery driver Etc. I'm sure you're not the only one who has taken notice So it's not the asshole. I'm willing to bet she wouldn't even notice if you put a hat on it Give it a day or two with a hat for a good chuckle Someone said you would be the asshole I realized you're frustrated, but you're substituting passive aggressive bullshit for just having it out with your gross neighbor Why are you cleaning their half of the porch anyway put a mental line between their half and your half and be done with it You're going to create problems for yourself if you do the birthday hat routine anyway So why not just do the adult thing and talk to the person directly either way it will be a shit show So just get it get it over with instead of being childish. I don't I don't know I agree with like go talk to them Like but I also think I agree with the other comment. I don't think they're gonna even notice Yeah, I think he could start dumping his trash on their porch and I think they'd be like oh I didn't notice Yeah, literally I think if they put a whole birthday. I don't know bunch of birthday stuff update He put the birthday stuff on it and now with different angles you can really see how gross that pump is Oh, it's caddy is fuck though. That's pretty caddy. That is just look it wait. Can we see it again? The pumpkins disgusting Is that just green goop? No, no, Shane. This is me after a shoot block when it's someone's birthday That is this is wrong. That is not happy birthday That's that's resident evil That is resident that's resident evil right there looks like goose bumps But also just I don't know the happy birthday thing is it is it's now seeing it in person. I'm like It's pretty he had a he has a balloon. He didn't say he was gonna have a balloon And then change things for you to the moon and then I'm not signing all this stuff. It's also It's also really funny. It's it's funny, but it's also just like Jesus dude. I don't know. I like it. It's funny. It's smart. It's like witty Yeah, it's good Is there another update? No, what is it that was it? They just did it they're probably not gonna notice and they had a long board in front of their door that they stepped over for Seven they probably didn't even remember that it was their pumpkin. They they probably have no idea literally They're probably like who put a birthday hat on the pumpkin outside Yeah, our next story comes from relationship advice. This was posted January 11th 2025 so Earlier this year we could put a birthday hat on it It was This is a 26-year-old woman she writes my boyfriend whose 30 got me Pokemon for Christmas and I can't let it go Do I call it quits or work it out Pokemon what just said she just said Pokemon real Pokemon He bought her Pokemon. She got her Pokemon. We'll see what he which what he got her exactly for context my boyfriend And I've been together for three years since I've known him He has always loved Pokemon personally. I have no interest But as his partner I encourage his hobbies and support him this past Christmas We had a few brief conversations about Christmas budgets and invention to each other things we have been wanting I knew Pokemon packs were on the top of his list So I made sure to get him some I mentioned wanting a few beauty products and a specific hoodie Well Christmas comes around and I open my gifts to my surprise the first one was a pack of Pokemon cards What okay? Whatever the next one was a booster box of Pokemon cards I stop and ask him if he's joking because this must be a joke right Well, he smirks and tells me to keep going. I open my next gift It was another booster box of Pokemon cards He was full of excitement while I opened my gifts That's it those were my three gifts what I am not and never have been interested in Pokemon After this I told him I needed a moment to myself I went to our bedroom and took a moment to gather my thoughts and lower my temper when I came back to the living room There he was on the floor both booster packs and the pack of cards he got me were opened and sprawled across the floor I was in shock not only did he get me gifts that I didn't want But he actually got them for himself and tried to play it off I have been trying to move past this as I did not want to seem ungrateful But I just can't believe he would do something like this every time I've tried to bring it up He has told me how expensive those booster boxes were and how I made him feel bad for not appreciating my gifts Am I being ungrateful or is he just a jerk? Oh give What is this? That's unreal What is this? Yeah, you get it. So he didn't get her gifts He got himself something and just just said it like So what is this huh? So what it what's going on? Are we breaking up or what? So Oh this is rough. This is rough I just feel like somehow a lot of people miss a lot of people miss the meaning of giving gifts and what that is And it's it's an expression of love He sounds like a baby. Yeah, he sounds like a child. Yeah Um But they've been together for three years and he's been alive for four so what's the Ha But it's like you think she'd be like oh there's there's stuff in the past that he's done that's similar to this But it's like no this is do you believe in the three-year itch? The three-year itch. What is that? Actually, I don't know if that's the exact title I thought it was three months I've heard the three-year itch. What's the three-year itch? Or just like it gets it's when it gets real. Oh see I've always viewed that as six months Really six months six months is where it's like oh like this relationship is going great My my thought is always like don't make any big commitments Six months and six months, but then I would say like I do think like once you get like I don't know it varies per person Yeah, three years is I feel like a mark where it's like once you get past that's like okay If you move past then you're doing good three Christmas is together. Yeah, it's enough to start to see yourself like just natural Like I feel like people get very comfortable and and sometimes effort is lost true It's true. No, but I think like with three years. It's it like in my past relationship that it was and it shortly after three years And it was like oh we had just stopped Like putting an effort And I feel like this is a gift that's like there's no effort there. It's just like what? Yeah, he was completely thinking about himself Completely self-centered like he deserves jail time Like barely kidding Where this is the thing these are this is one of those stories where it's like this can't be real It's like this stuff does really happen there are people who are like this, but when they do stuff this unbelievable, you're like What like I don't know is I don't even know how to react She's sitting here like weeks after going what what I Like he's moved past this. He's acting like this was fine. I wouldn't be able to move past that You'd expect it's like you're playing a prank on me There's a lot of layers to this. It's like there could be the argument of like oh he wants to hurt a get into his interests like cool like that's not a Christmas gift and she's not into it. You've dated her for three years She's not into Pokemon He opened her gifts which means they were gifts to himself That's that's my big takeaway Comments so you're telling me he's known and dated you for at least three years and has never paid attention long enough to get you gifts You may actually like and you're questioning if you want to do this for the rest of Your life or not someone said not this is crazy even if you wanted this he then opened your gift Yeah, that part is unforgivable too Lastly someone said that's literally insane and the best possible explanation is that he's wildly emotionally unintelligent So if that's what you like I guess stay with him ETA I just registered that this is a 30 year old man cis-y Yeah, that's not gonna change Yeah Yeah, this is just unfortunate for everyone involved It's like unbelievable to me. It's truly unbelievable like I understand sometimes being like oh my god I was a trip and then I get to benefit all for this too, but this is just him She has expressed no interest in this it's like I would rather get a Rumba I would rather get a Rumba I'd rather get like I don't know a teeth whitening Yeah, coupon absolutely And not like a I'm making this about me and my interests Yeah, no teeth whitening coupon would be very hurt. Oh, probably probably pretty hurt And I brought it up because my mom did kind of get that to me. I've gotten that too. Yeah And you know what that's fine It's actually moms moms do that moms are like I got you these socks because I hate your fucking socks Right like that's a thing We see that your socks coordinate with the sweater. It's pretty cool Okay Our next story is an am I the asshole from November 26th 2024 so we've got a Thanksgiving one from next year Oh last year from last from next year It's 2020 It's Christmas. It's Thanksgiving Am I the asshole for sitting on my husband's lap during Thanksgiving dinner because all chairs at the table were taken What a power play that is so funny. Well, they're no much Well, I suppose it was a was a girl so big. I guess I'll just I a 28 year old woman have been with my husband Sean who's 33 for two years married for five months Most of his family are decent people but his mom can be a little bit of a passive aggressive and tends to criticize me a lot I feel like some edits were made in that writing I Feel like she wrote something down. She's like just be a little passive aggressive. Oh be chill Sean sees it as her still not getting used to me being around But I don't know because she treats his ex jolissa well Mother-in-law says that jolissa has been around the family for ages and her past was Sean never affected her relationship with her Fine, I never minded her attending every holiday and being around until yesterday We had Thanksgiving dinner at my mother-in-law's house Sean went there before me and when I arrived it was already dinner time Everyone was seated and I saw that all the chairs were taken I asked mother-in-law why she didn't save me a seat and she said sorry And that one of her granddaughters decided to show up at the last minute and the chair was taken I looked at her then at jolissa who was sitting next to Sean and tried to point out how I was more deserving of her chair Since I'm the daughter-in-law. I know I shouldn't have said it. I know I know Mother-in-law flat-out said that jolissa is as much family as me and that it was rude to imply otherwise jolissa was nodding confidently while glancing at me I was so upset I wanted to leave but decided to just sit on my husband's lap and act as casual as possible I saw in his lap asking if he was okay with it. Don't worry. I'm petite He's strong-built and started eating so casually while smiling and complimenting the food and mentioning to Sean how warm and comfortable his lap was Yes The table went awkwardly silent Brother-in-law would try to break the silence and change the subject But it somehow goes back to being awkward mother-in-law and jolissa were barely eating and we're staring at each other then at me Wise wide open minutes later jolissa Excuse yourself to the bathroom and so did mother-in-law It was still awkward, but I did my best to focus on dinner Sean was eating as well later There was just so much tension and mother-in-law was barely able to speak after jolissa left she left early like right after dinner Sean and I went home and mother-in-law tried calling but then called Sean and texted me saying that what I did was inappropriate And that I ruined Thanksgiving dinner and made it awkward she said it wasn't her fault Chairs were taken and I could have dragged a chair from the kitchen But acted childishly and made jolissa and family uncomfortable with how inappropriate I was at it I need to mention that even if I took a chair from the kitchen There was not enough space at the dinner table to fit the chair everyone was sitting next to each other wow God I'd kill to be there. I would kill yeah to be there just sitting on there being like your your lap is so warm Sorry, I feel like I'm seated so high because your bowl just so huge Look at that a natural boost Whoa The husband is That slowed out I'm not certified I Don't have the DMV license because we gave you the list Oh, I guess I guess I guess if there's no chair for me outside on my boyfriend's boat Oh my son's new girlfriend Betty Boop is Yeah Oh, okay, so let's talk about Sean for a minute. Okay, so jolissa shons X Yeah, who like He's like the family is allowing his ex to come to Thanksgiving dinner. He's tolerating that like that's number one It's like dude Who's allowing this right why is this happening? She's a part of the family. Okay Yeah, she have another family that should know okay. Well, it feels inappropriate. It's like But she's my ex like she's not I guess you brought her into the family But then it's also not sticking up for the wife in a way. It's like What where's my wife's seat she needs a see yeah, where's yeah, yeah, it's his mother. It's his mother's house Yeah, they're married like they're married so it's like hey, you're the ex and you are the act I like they're married he's like okay, there's no maybe he knows there's no fighting with her I like that he's like yes in my lap babe, and then I like that they're both eating and there's no conflict with Why it feels like they're on a team can I um the thing that's coming to mind yes, and I need to do visual it could you send my lap? Yeah? I don't know how and this is great right how is he eating yeah, so you eat? So she said she did say So is it like a I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm you're seated across. I think it's a little bit more of she's kind of seated on one leg and and like And there are other legs on his bulge well Like she's saying she I'm saying how do you this is so dramatic to be like it is it is dramatic But she's saying it's the only option. She's also saying she's petite and he's like a strong built like bigger guy So maybe like she really just comfortably sits on one of his legs and like what is she fucking It is awkward you're sure you're petite but like what the fuck yeah, I'm a polypocket like I'm petite. I'm two feet tall So just like hey look another opportunity. I make a barrow or joke like every other episodes It's always there um this is just like it's like man. Why is this situation happening? This is not like I want to call this story fake But this is not the first time this is one of numerous times I've heard And for people in real life of like X's Being part of the family. Yeah, I'm like how does this happen? Yeah, but it happens a lot I mean it does it really does it makes sense it makes sense to me in my experience when there's kids involved because it's like Yeah, oh yeah, we're not gonna separate the parents from the kids. Yeah, I get that I get that There's no kids involved no kids. This is an ex girlfriend as far as we know And now he's married It's like at some point you gotta be like hey like I'm sorry you guys broke up like yeah, it's a control thing too It's like our families need to like be boundaries and not controlling each other's lives when it comes into like Dating is such a thing we see all the time on it's pretty awful But there are so many stories of like families who are like no, we're gonna make you marry this person. Well she lay I will say it's it's a interesting thing that they started That she was late to think that they didn't go together. Yes, she and her husband didn't go to things But we don't know the situation. He never know it could be But but he she showed up and they had already started dinner so already I feel like the families just not respecting her Like we're gonna start without yeah, I would I wouldn't even sit unless all parties are there. Yeah That's a lot of things man where it's like hey like My wife is part of the family now. Yes, if you're not respecting her You disrespecting her is disrespecting me and if you're gonna disrespect us on that level like I will not come to Thanksgiving Like you tolerate it you're saying like oh you're kind of giving it the okay like I can see reality where there was a set time I'm not seeing hearing any of that from this story But I can see but I'm also not hearing like I'm not hearing it. So it might have been omitted. Yeah Just on person telling point of view. I think I think opi gives a little bit more details in the comments So let's see the verdict not the asshole no Comments not the asshole, but the whole ordeal could have been avoided had your husband done what he should have done And given you his seat while he went to fetch another one in fact He should have already had an empty seat beside him waiting for you I can't imagine putting my wife in such an awkward situation 72,000 upvotes. Yeah, I that that sums it up so well So that comment had 72,000 upvotes and the story itself had 10,000 upvotes It's like when chance write something really funny on my Instagram posts I get a lot of likes on his career Um someone commented under that saying why is the husband okay with his ex being treated better Someone said not the asshole. I feel like I missed something does he have children with his ex who she brought to Thanksgiving dinner Minus that I have no clue what she was therefore opi says no They were friends and both families were close then they started dating then broke up But still maintained a decent relationship However mother-in-law is somehow acting like they're still together But she denied all that saying that she just treats her as a daughter And also told me I have zero say in how she treats others which is Fine by me really, but when I'm being treated as less than I find issues with her treatment On another note my husband says he can't figure out this problem between me and his mom He thinks that we're both wrong No, what? Oh, fuck Both of you ladies are wrong You're both crazy So emotional Someone said under that sounds like your husband is a selfish guy He didn't find it odd that you had to sit on his lap at Thanksgiving He didn't find it odd that his ex was sitting happily and his wife wasn't he doesn't seem to respect you much to be honest Lastly, someone said not the asshole mother-in-law suggests after the fact that opi could have dragged a chair from the kitchen It was mother-in-law's job as host to do that herself Failor to do so was an obvious attempt to make opi ill at ease Opie responded delightfully it was mother-in-law's fault that it turned out the way it did Oh my god, you know this is giving Boy mom's episode of Bits City Like exactly this is this is Amanda's Karen. Yeah, no, it's like straight up. Yeah That's like crazy. I also don't know. Maybe I'm a people pleaser But like if I invite someone over and there's not a chair for them like I'm I'm not standing for it Like I don't want to make that person feel that uncomfortable like even I don't even want them to sit on my lap I'm like let's leave Yeah, I've never I've just simply never been around people like that. Yeah, right like Because like if I don't like someone if if if I'm with people I'm like we don't like this person. We're not inviting them. Yeah, because it because like I'm not gonna invite someone To a dinner and an on purpose make it awkward for that. I'm like. I don't want to sit there with that Like that sucks. I'm so like Problem solver oriented in those situations where I'll be like Oh, you can have my chair and I'll find like something like I will Don't doesn't matter who it is if it's only sensing. It's that awkward. I'm like. Oh, I really don't need this that bad If it will be less awkward now right definitely He could also there's another power move instead of sitting on his lap is just standing all stand Yeah, hold it or she's like Like how walk pass the cranberry. Yeah, like literally Oh, like circling a table. Yeah, it's just like walking around like it's a cocktail hour. Oh my god I love that walking around like a leg walking around like it's the beginning of traders And she's like so what this picture joining different numbers. They're just like grabbing people's wine Just be like that's good. That's nice. Is this what is this? Oh nice our last story. It is a today.

I had to play dumb. I was so embarrassed All right, this reminds me of one of our live shows unfortunately It wasn't Tommy. Oh, I'm thinking of the Tommy Vidcon um, there was a there was a live show There was a live show. We had it was a Christmas live show Where before we went on we were in like our like waiting room for her slurry and someone farted and it was so bad That everybody cleared out So no, I thought it was Tommy.

It's happened a few times in my life We're like we're I'm in a group setting and someone farts and it's like unfortunately horrible And everyone's like we gotta go and like in those situations nobody admits to it Yeah, everyone cleared the ruffle times in my life where it happens and then like probably back in like elementary school and stuff like that That happens and it's just like the DJ We shouldn't worry about the DJ commenting on it and the lights being turned up The lights being turned up. Someone passed out. We're just yeah Also the fact that she came back 30 minutes later and it was still bad.
