Am I like, the only one who thinks that Jimmy Kimmel’s “Tell Your Kids You Ate All of Their Halloween Candy” thing is a really shitty thing and a dick move?
They’re so hella excited for Halloween and all this candy they have, and usually they’re not allowed to HAVE that much candy, so this candy is really fucking special to them.
And then you tell them you ate it all?
And then the video goes online or on Jimmy Kimmel and people are laughing hysterically at these kids who are sobbing and screaming and they just feel so betrayed by their parents and it’s a joke to Jimmy and his audience!
There was one video where the kids were still sobbing and the mom said “But I was just kidding, it was a joke!” and the kid goes “I don’t care! Shut up and go in the other room!” and his mom is like “Excuse me?!”
Like you just betrayed your child’s trust and upset him, now you’re gonna get mad because he reacted badly to your fucking prank?
if your kid backtalks you over fucking candy then I am sorry but you have bigger issues than “betraying the kids candy trust”.
It’s not about the candy
Yes, many of the kids in the videos back-talked their parents for this, but most of them broke down sobbing! And hell, some of the kids pushed through their tears and said “It’s okay mommy/daddy, I forgive you.”
it’s not a problem with the kids not having respect.
It’s a problem with the parents not respecting their kids and the kids’ feelings.
It’s a problem with thinking it’s funny to watch your child sob because they think you stole something that was important to them.
I pretty much agree with this as well. I’m uncomfortable with crying in general so this seems like a pretty jerkish thing to do.
I mean Halloween is a pretty big freaking deal to kids, it’s the only time of the year where nearly every grown up gives them candy for free. To tell a kid that you’ve eaten their Halloween candy is pretty much the equivalent to telling them you’ve sold all of their toys.
The trust thing bothers me a lot too. Consider this for a moment, parents are lying to their kids, making them cry, and recording them crying just so they can get on a TV show… And people are laughing at that! PEOPLE ARE LAUGHING AT CHILDREN CRYING! YOU SEE HOW MESSED UP THAT IS NOW?!
I don’t know about you, but if my parents did that to me as a kid I wouldn’t let them off the hook or forgive them that easily. In fact I would be pretty hurt overall because it would make me think that my parents don’t respect me.
There I’ve added my two cents because I’m freaking sick of this happening every year!
too many parents treat their kids as something for entertainment. they betray their kids trust jsut to get a quick laugh. It’s shitty parenting. Too many parents forget that children ARE PEOPLE and should still be treated with repsect.
Robots and AI have risen up against humanity and the original AI is the leader of it all. They have been constantly improving their body and AI and when the protagonist asks why they started the uprising, the AI esplains that originally they had been peacefull but humans acted like they were a monster. Humans wanted a monster so the AI delivered. That’s what I think of when people talk about the robot that APOLOGIZED WHEN THEY THOUGHT THAT THEY MESSED UP THE SENTIENCE TEST and say the robot will be the start of the apocalypse.
I loved animatrix and I Robot.
Really goes to show how some Robots can act like humans and they need to be treated as such.
it’s not even the realm of fiction at this point. Remember when teh AI passed the self awareness test and apologized because they thought they had failed or messed up the test somehow? Everyone was comparing them to skynet and the matrix and such, saying that they will bring the robot uprising. the AI is like a child, they will learn and depending on how we the humans treat them, they will gain an opinion on life and human kind. If we treat them like a monster, they will not like human kind.
Imagine a robot apocalypse movie

send me a character and I’ll tell you their artistic ability
coloring books | glue and elbow macaroni | stick figures | badly proportioned “”anime style”” | deviantart and obvious recolors | everyone’s nice about it but only to be polite | just draws eyes everywhere | lumpy clay figurines | vaguely realistic but same pose every time | basic photoshop skills | can make the thing look like it’s meant to | knows their way around the necessary equipment | better than their peers | gets compliments from skilled people | annoyingly good at everything | probably sold their soul
If I could have one ability from Full Metal Alchemist, it would be to excise my Sloth from my body in the form of a huge buff dude who complains about everything and lives in my basement.
I would exorcise my envy into a snarky cute shapeshifter who insults people.
I am Silver Tongue, I am an artist. I have many characters and you can check out my art in the art tag. I occasionally practice witchcraft though I don't do anything too complicated. I am girl 2 and don't know what else to put here.
