0:00My parents are losers. And I think
0:03that's a big reason why I'm a loser,
0:05too, because I was raised by my loser
0:10parents.
0:11So, what happens when one loser meets
0:15another loser and they have a child
0:17together? Well, obviously the kid's
0:21going to grow up to be an even bigger
0:23loser than the parents.
0:26And that's me. So, in this video, I'm
0:31going to be talking about all the
0:32different ways that my parents are
0:35losers financially,
0:37mentally, physically, socially,
0:42especially socially. And I'm going to
0:44talk about how my parents being losers
0:47has resulted in me being an even bigger
0:51loser than the both of them combined.
0:55My dad was a lifelong factory worker. He
0:59started working a general labor factory
1:01job pretty early on in his early 20s and
1:05he just never tried to move beyond that.
1:09And my mom was a stay-at-home mother for
1:12most of my childhood. Then she ended up
1:15getting a degree in social work or
1:18something like that after I was already
1:20an adult after she divorced my dad.
1:24And since then, she's been a chronic job
1:28hopper. And it's not like she's hopping
1:31from job to job to increase her salary.
1:34She just goes from one low-wage job to
1:37another every year or two. And it's
1:41always because according to her, her
1:44co-workers or her boss are out to get
1:47her or they treat her unfairly or
1:51something. So make of that what you
1:54will. But the older I get, the more I
1:58realize
1:59both of my parents are losers.
2:03And I love my parents, by the way. They
2:06treat me well,
2:08well enough. They support me,
2:12but they are losers. And they made me
2:16into a loser, too.
2:18Whether that's more nature or its
2:21nurture or a combination of both. I'm
2:24obviously a huge loser. I'm 36 years old
2:28and I work at a car wash and I don't
2:32have any friends. I'm pretty cool with
2:34one of my co-workers, Jamal, but we only
2:37ever hung out outside of work the one
2:40time. And you know, we're just work
2:43friends. We're not actually friends. you
2:45know, we don't like we don't hang out
2:47outside of work, so we're not friends.
2:51So, today I want to talk about how if
2:55your parents are losers, then you pretty
2:59much have no chance of not becoming a
3:02loser yourself. I'm sure there are
3:04people that this doesn't apply to
3:07because there is the whole concept of
3:10genetic recombination,
3:12which is basically just the idea that,
3:15for example, if you had two parents that
3:18were both ugly, you might still end up
3:22being highly attractive because
3:24sometimes it's just kind of
3:26unpredictable how two people's DNA are
3:29going to combine.
3:31But most of the time, a child will end
3:35up being a lot like the parents
3:38genetically and socially
3:41for obvious reasons. You share their DNA
3:45and they're the ones that raise you. So,
3:49usually you're going to end up being a
3:52lot like your parents one way or
3:54another.
3:55So in my case, both of my parents are
3:59financially just very unambitious.
4:04My dad got hired to his first factory
4:07job in his early 20s and he just for
4:11whatever reason he just stuck with that
4:13line of work all the way to retirement.
4:16That line of work being unskilled labor.
4:19And there's not necessarily anything
4:22wrong with that. You know, the world
4:26needs people to do those jobs. And in my
4:29dad's case, it worked out well enough
4:31because he got into it starting in the
4:3380s when the economy was just booming.
4:36And back then, even lowpaying factory
4:40jobs, you know, in the 80s and 90s, even
4:42lowpaying factory jobs paid enough to
4:45support a family. So he was pretty much
4:48just coasting until the Great Recession
4:51and then he ended up being unemployed
4:53for a year or two, but in the grand
4:57scheme of things, even that didn't
4:58really matter because he eventually
5:01found another job. And he worked there
5:04for I don't know 15 years or something
5:07like that, however long it was till he
5:09retired.
5:11But I just remember every single day he
5:15would just go on and on about how
5:18miserable he is and how much he hates
5:21his job. And he would always complain
5:24about how stupid his co-workers were and
5:27how much the job sucks.
5:30He made it very clear that he hates his
5:33work. Yet he just kept doing it anyways.
5:38And he's not stupid. like he's he's
5:40probably intelligent enough that he
5:42could have gotten a degree and got a
5:45better paying job with better benefits
5:48and everything if he had even the
5:50slightest amount of ambition. Cuz keep
5:54in mind he was starting his career in
5:56the 80s. So back then, unless I'm
5:59mistaken, I'm pretty sure that back then
6:01it actually was possible to get a good
6:04job just because you had some random
6:07bachelor's degree in business
6:09administration or whatever. But my dad
6:13just apparently
6:15he didn't think about things like, you
6:17know, maybe in the future the economy
6:20won't be booming out of control. And you
6:23know, maybe he might not be setting the
6:26best example for his son. You know me.
6:30Cuz the other thing about this,
6:33my dad is what you would call a
6:36functioning alcoholic.
6:38And I think that's probably a big reason
6:41why he never cared to try to get out of
6:45working these backbreaking factory jobs
6:49because he would come home from work
6:51every day and he would just immediately
6:54crack open a cold one. Then he would
6:57just keep drinking his natural lights
7:00until he fell asleep in his chair
7:02watching TV.
7:04And when he was off work, like on the
7:06weekends, he would usually start
7:08drinking around 1 or two in the
7:11afternoon. And it was the same thing.
7:14You know, he would drink until he fell
7:16asleep watching TV. And he also chain
7:20smoked cigarettes the entire time. And
7:23he still lives like this, by the way,
7:25but he's retired now. So every day is
7:28just drinking and smoking all day.
7:32Now, socially speaking, my dad does have
7:36some friends. Every now and then, he
7:40might meet up with a friend to watch a
7:43football game, and he used to go hunting
7:46with his friends pretty regularly during
7:48duck season, but he hasn't been hunting
7:51for probably 20 years or something like
7:53that. I And I don't even know why. I
7:55guess he just he'd just rather drink
7:58Natty Lights and rot in his armchair
8:02watching reruns of The Office. And
8:05that's another weird thing about my dad.
8:07You probably wouldn't expect an
8:10alcoholic redneck like my dad to be a
8:12fan of The Office, but he loves he he
8:16loves that normie tier TV sitcom slop.
8:22And I mean, I like The Office, too, but
8:25it's always funny hearing my dad talk
8:27about it because he'll just randomly be
8:30going to grab another beer or whatever
8:32during the commercial break and he'll
8:35see me and he'll just be like, "Matt,
8:38Dwight is just something else." He just
8:40tickles me to death. And he'll get this
8:43tone of like he gets genuinely excited
8:46and he'll just be like, "Have you seen
8:49the one where they do the CPR training
8:51and Dwight cuts the face off the dummy?
8:54I about died. I just about died. That's
8:58my dude right there. He just tears me
9:00up."
9:02And by the way, that is nearly a word
9:05for word conversation.
9:07That is really something that my dad
9:09said recently, this was just the other
9:12day that this happened.
9:14But yeah, the biggest loser trait that
9:18my dad has is just that he just rots. He
9:25just sits there drinking natural light
9:27all day just rotting watching cable
9:31television.
9:33I even tried to get him to get Netflix
9:36or something instead of cable, but he's
9:39always just like, "No, I just like to
9:42watch whatever they got on. I don't want
9:44to pick it myself."
9:46So, I guess he just
9:50I don't know. I'm pretty sure what it is
9:53is my dad.
9:56He's definitely a high inhibition guy.
10:00Not as bad as I am, but he is on the
10:03higher inhibition side of the inhibition
10:06spectrum.
10:07And you really can't blame him for this
10:11cuz it is a natural way of coping with
10:15social anxiety.
10:17But I think he just drinks and rots away
10:19in front of the TV just to cope. You
10:22know, this is just his way of coping
10:24with his anxiety.
10:27And I think that's also why he never
10:30tried to get a better job or anything.
10:32He just convinces himself that he
10:35doesn't even want to because that's
10:38easier than actually having to face his
10:41anxiety.
10:42And I do understand that. I fully
10:45understand that. I'm not blaming him for
10:48it. But I do think that I picked up on
10:52these things to some degree as I was
10:54growing up. And that influenced me and
10:58that's probably at least partially why I
11:02myself am so high inhibition.
11:06But another thing is that my dad takes
11:11anti-depressants.
11:13He's been on anti-depressants as long as
11:15I can remember. So, it's kind of hard to
11:18tell what's actually his natural way of
11:21being versus just the way he is when
11:26he's zombied out on Zoloft or whatever.
11:30But either way, it doesn't really matter
11:33because as a kid growing up, I just saw
11:37my dad always acting like a loser and it
11:42kind of just made me feel like,
11:45you know, that's going to be my position
11:47in life. Like my dad is a low-level
11:51factory worker, so that's my cast.
11:56My dad just rots. So naturally, I am a
12:01rot child. Some people are upper class
12:05alphas. You know, their role is to be
12:08like the wroth's childs, the doers and
12:11makers of society.
12:14But me, I'm not a Roth's child. I'm a
12:18rot child. My dad just rots. So that's
12:22my legacy, you know, rotting in front of
12:25the TV. That's where I fit in. That's my
12:29role. That's my cast.
12:32And aside from that, and this is
12:35actually the bigger thing that
12:36influenced me in my formative years and
12:39turned me into such a loser, just seeing
12:42how my dad acts in social situations,
12:46he's just extraordinarily passive. And
12:51maybe this is the anti-depressants,
12:54but he just he never really speaks up.
12:58He doesn't stand up for himself outside
13:01of our family, you know, outside of the
13:03household because he would argue with my
13:06mom all day every day back when they
13:08were still together. So, he would stand
13:11up against her, but seeing him at a
13:14restaurant or something, you know, he's
13:17the type of guy he could order a steak
13:20and they bring him a grilled chicken
13:22salad and he'd just be like, "You know
13:26what? I like chicken salad. This is
13:28fine. And that's actually not even that
13:32bad. I think his passiveness probably
13:35did play a role in making me kind of the
13:39same way because I am also very meek and
13:43passive. But the worst is when he gets a
13:49little bit more drunk than usual. You
13:52know, when I drink, it doesn't lower my
13:55inhibition at all. But my dad, he gets
13:58drunk and all of a sudden he just starts
14:01saying some absolutely [ __ ] [ __ ] to
14:04random people. Like he'll start hitting
14:07on a 20-year-old waitress in a very
14:11creepy way. Or he'll randomly just talk
14:15[ __ ] to some random passerbys, but it's
14:18always in a way that doesn't even make
14:20sense. So people don't even get mad.
14:22Usually they're just confused
14:25and
14:27it's just very cringy and it's hard to
14:31watch.
14:33But that's how I've always known my dad
14:35to be. He's either just rotaxing and
14:39being a socially awkward, meek, passive
14:42pushover
14:44or he's a socially awkward drunken fool.
14:48So whether it's nature or nurture, it
14:52doesn't really matter because I ended up
14:55being a very meek, passive, socially
14:58anxious person myself. And that is
15:01probably largely to blame on the way
15:05that my dad is and the example that he
15:07set for me.
15:09I don't know if I learned that from him
15:11or I inherited it genetically, but who
15:16cares, you know? So it doesn't matter
15:17either way. I got it from him.
15:21So that's my dad. Unambitious, socially
15:26awkward, high inhibition loser,
15:29alcoholic.
15:30And again, I do love both of my parents.
15:34You know, it's probably their parents'
15:36fault that they're losers. So, I don't
15:39mean this video to be a hit piece on the
15:42two people in my life that care about me
15:44the most, but I'm just saying all this
15:47so you have a little more context on why
15:51I am the way I am. You know, why I'm
15:54such a huge loser. And also just to make
15:57the point that most losers or a lot of
16:02losers anyways cuz for some people it is
16:04their own fault but for a lot of us we
16:08just never even stood a chance because
16:10of the way that we were raised.
16:14So now let's talk about my mom.
16:17My mom is a very extroverted narcissist
16:23with zero self-awareness.
16:27And she's also stupid. She accepts no
16:31responsibility whatsoever for her
16:34actions,
16:35no matter what it is. And anytime she's
16:39forced to face any kind of consequences,
16:43she always deflects.
16:46You know, it's always somebody else's
16:47fault. And it's not even worth arguing
16:50with her because if you do back her into
16:53a corner with facts and logic, she'll
16:56just start crying and talking about how
16:59everyone's always out to get her. And,
17:02you know, basically, she'll just play
17:04the victim. She plays the victim.
17:07Now, I don't like to use the K slur
17:12because I've noticed that in a lot of
17:15the viral videos where some supposed KS
17:19slur, you know, Karen is supposedly just
17:24being so evil and racist or whatever, at
17:28least half the time you see a video like
17:30that, the supposed Karen isn't actually
17:33doing anything wrong.
17:36Like for example, the time a gang of
17:38teenagers tried to hog a ride share city
17:41bike in New York City so nobody else
17:43could take it out while they just hung
17:45around waiting for their friend or
17:47whatever. And the whole world was just
17:49super quick to take the side of the
17:52downtrodden minority youth when really
17:56they were the ones being [ __ ] and
17:59the supposed Karen was in the right. She
18:01didn't do anything wrong. So, I don't
18:05like to use the K slur. I know that may
18:09may be controversial with my audience,
18:12but I don't like to use that word
18:14because it is commonly used in these low
18:18context viral clips in order to paint a
18:22person as being in the wrong. And then
18:26everyone just accepts that narrative
18:27because, you know, the title of the
18:30video said she's a Karen, so she must be
18:33the one that's wrong.
18:35And I'm not down with that. I care about
18:39nuance. Call me crazy, you know. I I I
18:42am I am kind of alone in this these
18:45days, I suppose, but I care about nuance
18:50and I don't make snap judgments like
18:52that.
18:54And I'm just going to say it. The word
18:57Karen is a racist slur against white
19:01people. So, I don't like to use that
19:04word.
19:05But with that said,
19:08my mom is a total Karen.
19:13Like, anytime we go out to eat, she
19:16always without fail, every single time,
19:20she always finds something to complain
19:22about with her meal. It's like she just
19:25lives to talk down to customer service
19:27workers.
19:29And another example, one time my mom
19:32reversed out of her driveway and she
19:35just backed straight into the neighbor's
19:38car that was parked on the street and
19:41her neighbor was outside on his porch at
19:43the time. So, he saw it happen.
19:46So instead of getting out of her car and
19:50going up to the neighbor and apologizing
19:52to the guy and you know just like trying
19:54to swap insurance information or
19:56whatever like a normal person would do.
19:59My mom immediately jumped out of her car
20:03and ran right up to this guy just
20:05yelling and cussing at him just like
20:08what the hell are you doing parking
20:09there blah blah blah blah. You know she
20:12was yelling at the guy as if it was his
20:14fault.
20:16And his car was parked fine, by the way.
20:18It was 100% legal and it wasn't even
20:22like right across from my mom's
20:24driveway. She had to pull out at an
20:28erratic angle and you know, so that's
20:30what she did. She pulled out at a weird
20:32angle going too fast, not paying
20:35attention as she usually does. Then she
20:39wanted to try to act like it was this
20:41other guy's fault for parking his car
20:44legally on the street in front of his
20:46own house. So my mom is pretty much
20:51horrible and she's a narcissist and she
20:56does okay socially, I guess, because she
21:00does always have friends, but the thing
21:03is she never keeps any of her friends
21:06for very long. She always ends up having
21:08some kind of drama and then she'll stop
21:11being friends with whoever it is that
21:14she has drama with. Then she'll make
21:17some other friends to replace the ones
21:18that she lost and rinse and repeat,
21:22which is actually the same exact thing
21:24that she does with jobs. It's a never-
21:27ending cycle of manufacturing drama,
21:30playing the victim, quitting her job or
21:34quitting a friendship, and then getting
21:37a new job or replacing the friend. So,
21:41in my opinion, that does make her a
21:44loser socially. and the effects it has
21:49had on me being raised by this
21:53narcissistic loser that my mother is.
21:57Well, there's a lot and none of it is
22:00good.
22:02For one thing, I'm pretty sure that her
22:05behavior is a big part of why I have
22:09such horrible social anxiety because
22:14she's very overbearing.
22:16So growing up as a kid, she would always
22:20speak for me whenever she had the
22:22opportunity. So that made it so that I
22:26never really got the chance to socialize
22:28for myself. So I didn't get to practice
22:31socializing.
22:33And she was always very quick to
22:36criticize me for anything I said. You
22:40know, no matter what I said as a kid,
22:43she would always just laugh at me and
22:46she would say that I have no common
22:48sense. That's her favorite phrase that
22:50she's always used to categorize me. He
22:54has no common sense. That boy has no
22:57common sense. And she'll tell it
23:00straight to my face. You know, she
23:01always even today even today, she always
23:05will tell me almost a daily basis that I
23:08have no common sense. And she would even
23:12tell people that right in front of me.
23:15She would say to other people that I
23:18have no common sense, insulting me,
23:21basically. I mean, I take it as an
23:23insult. And I've made it very clear to
23:26her that I don't agree with that and I
23:28take that as an insult.
23:31But she, even when I was a little kid,
23:33she would say that to people, tell them
23:36that I have no common sense right in
23:39front of me when I'm right there
23:40listening.
23:45And it's like, how much common sense do
23:47you expect me to have as an 8-year-old?
23:51You freaking [ __ ]
23:54And I know there's a chance that she's
23:56listening to this right now. So, Mom, if
24:01you are listening to this and it makes
24:04you upset to hear these things, just
24:07know
24:09you've been had it coming.
24:12You talk trash about me my entire life
24:16right in front of my face. Okay, so I
24:20think I deserve to talk some truth in
24:23front of yours.
24:27she probably won't be listening to this.
24:30But yeah, like I even remember on more
24:34than one occasion, uh, two times in
24:37particular when I was a kid. So I wet
24:42the bed for a little bit too long. It
24:45wasn't really a huge problem, but I
24:48would occasionally wet the bed up to
24:51like when I was in like the third grade
24:54maybe. And obviously I was super
24:57embarrassed about it. It's not something
25:00I wanted to know. I didn't want anybody
25:02to know about it. Obviously.
25:05Well, there was two times that I can
25:08remember.
25:09One time was at school when she came to
25:13pick me up. This was either in second or
25:16third grade. So, my mom was talking to
25:20another mom in the hallway and I was
25:23standing right there and she started
25:26telling this woman all about my
25:28bedwedding problem. And as soon as she
25:31started, I immediately protested. You
25:33know, I I pulled on my mom's shirt and I
25:35was like, "Mom, don't tell people about
25:39that." And she was just very dismissive.
25:44She was just like, "Oh, don't be silly."
25:47She doesn't care about that. Don't worry
25:50about it.
25:52And then she just went on talking about
25:54it. Talking about my most embarrassing
25:58problem.
26:00And I tried again like, "Mom, stop
26:03talking about that." And you want to
26:06know what she did? She said, "If it
26:10bothers you, then go away. You don't
26:12have to listen to our conversation."
26:16So, you can imagine just the intense
26:21betrayal I felt in that moment
26:25for her to dismiss my feelings by
26:28telling me that the random woman that
26:31she's telling about all my issues to say
26:34that this random woman doesn't care, so
26:37I shouldn't be worried about it.
26:39In what universe is that even relevant?
26:44I care. I care. Mom, me, your son, the
26:50little boy you're supposed to be
26:52protecting, you know, the the little boy
26:54that trusts you unconditionally.
26:58Did you ever stop to consider that maybe
27:01I don't want to be humiliated in front
27:04of strangers? Did you ever consider
27:07that?
27:09Well, no. She didn't consider that. She
27:12never considers how her actions affect
27:14other people.
27:16All she cares about is how she feels in
27:20the moment.
27:22To say that my mother is inconsiderate
27:26would be a massive, massive
27:29understatement.
27:31She's a narcissist
27:33and she's very considerate of her own
27:37feelings.
27:38But for me, the vulnerable child she's
27:42meant to protect,
27:44you know, the human life that she
27:46brought into existence who had no say in
27:49the matter himself.
27:51She has no consideration for me and she
27:55never has.
27:58But I don't know. I guess that might be
28:00a bit off topic, but the point is
28:06my mom is a loser.
28:08She lacks the basic capacity for
28:12actually caring about any other human
28:15being on this planet. And as a result,
28:18she can never maintain any relationship
28:22long term. It's amazing my dad stayed
28:25with her as long as he did cuz my
28:27parents didn't get divorced till I was
28:29like 17, I think. So, they were married
28:32for probably about 20 years.
28:36But yeah, as an impressionable little
28:39boy growing up, these are the people
28:42that I had to model my personality
28:45after.
28:47An alcoholic factory worker with
28:50depression and social anxiety who would
28:53randomly have cringe outbursts in public
28:58and a raging, inconsiderate,
29:01narcissistic
29:02Karen.
29:04And I don't even like to use that word,
29:07but that's the best word there is to
29:09describe her.
29:12But, you know, as a kid, I mean, it's a
29:16no-brainer that you're going to end up
29:19being a lot like your parents in one way
29:21or another because when you're in your
29:25formative years, you're basically like a
29:28sponge. So, whoever it is that you spend
29:32the most time around, that is going to
29:36influence your personality.
29:38You're naturally going to mimic your
29:40parents' mannerisms and just everything
29:43about them and their personalities.
29:47Obviously, you will also be influenced
29:50by other people in your life, especially
29:52as you get older. You start to become
29:55more influenced by your peers and maybe
29:58even like celebrities and stuff, but
30:02those early years, those are the most
30:05important. There's a reason they call
30:06those the formative years.
30:09And for me, and I think for most people,
30:13if you have loser parents, their natural
30:17ways of being,
30:19all the things about them that make them
30:21losers,
30:23that's going to influence your
30:25development.
30:26Some of those loser qualities are going
30:29to rub off on you. You will absorb it.
30:33It's just bound to happen.
30:36And again, I know I keep saying this,
30:38but I do love my parents. For all their
30:42faults, they have always took care of me
30:45pretty well, and they support me even
30:49now as an adult in my 30s. So, you know,
30:52I can't hate on them too much,
30:56but it is kind of their fault that I'm
30:59like this.
31:01I mean, it's not just kind of their
31:03fault. It's a lot their fault that I'm
31:06like this. And even just from the
31:08standpoint of them passing on their sub5
31:11DNA to make a child together. Like I
31:15know genetics can be kind of
31:17unpredictable sometimes, but my dad has
31:21a weird shaped head and he went bald at
31:26a very early age. So that should have
31:29been something he considered before
31:32passing those genetics on to me.
31:35But I mean, I guess he probably didn't
31:39even realize how bad it actually is
31:42because he was able to get with my mom
31:45since that was back in the 80s before
31:47the internet allowed women to expand
31:50their dating pool outside of their
31:52immediate social circles.
31:55And by the way, since my parents split
31:58up almost 20 years ago, my dad has not
32:02so much as been on one single date. He's
32:06an inkwell basically himself. You know,
32:08he's he has a lot in common with me
32:10actually these days.
32:14Meanwhile,
32:16my fat, wrinkly hag mother, who is ugly
32:21on the inside and out, she has no
32:25trouble dating whatsoever. She's dated
32:28dozens of guys since the divorce.
32:31Mostly losers that she meets online,
32:34although I think she by now mostly has
32:38stopped dating. But yeah,
32:42my parents are losers. They passed on
32:45their horrible, physically repulsive,
32:48mentally troubled DNA to me. And then on
32:53top of that, they set just the absolute
32:57worst example for me for how to behave
33:01as a human being living in this clown
33:04society. And so here I am 36 years old,
33:10no friends, severely undermployed.
33:15I do have a girlfriend for the first
33:17time in my life. So you know I do have
33:21something positive in my life, but that
33:25is in spite of who I am, not because of
33:29it. And honestly, it feels like it's
33:33probably not going to last much longer.
33:36Like,
33:39I don't know, maybe it's just my
33:41anxiety, but it feels like she's been
33:44acting more distant the past couple
33:47days. But maybe I'll make a video about
33:50that.
33:52I'm not going to be talking about it
33:54right now. But I'm a loser and I have
34:00loser parents. And as I was growing up,
34:04my parents were losers back then.
34:06They've always been losers.
34:09And that's why I never stood a chance.
34:13And I'm a major loser myself.
34:16I actually, you know, I also meant to
34:19talk about how my parents are
34:21financially [ __ ]
34:24My mom has like insane credit card debt.
34:27My dad also has had in the past insane
34:31credit card debt. and he just
34:35he has a problem where
34:39I I think he's mostly gotten better, but
34:41he did have this problem for a while
34:43where he just got this idea in his head
34:46that he was going to get rich by buying
34:50antiques and random things on eBay and
34:54then reselling them also on eBay for a
34:58profit. And he thought he was going to
35:00make a lot of money like that. So what
35:03ended up happening was he just filled up
35:07his house with a bunch of random crap
35:11and the vast majority of it he never
35:14even sold it because I guess that was
35:16too much work for him. That would cut
35:18into his watching the office time.
35:24And he did sell a few of the things, but
35:26he literally never sold even one thing
35:29for a profit. He sold everything at a
35:32loss
35:34and yeah, he's just financially [ __ ]
35:37and so was my mom. When they were still
35:40together, they ended up filing uh what
35:44chapter 7 bankruptcy, whatever you call
35:47it. You know, when you file bankruptcy
35:49as a person or I guess maybe they filed
35:53it jointly as a married couple or
35:56something. I don't really know how it
35:57works because I've never personally
36:00myself had to file bankruptcy, but
36:03that's what they did because they always
36:06wanted to spend more money than they
36:09earned, which wasn't that much.
36:13So, that's just another aspect of how my
36:16parents are total losers.
36:19I don't I don't know. You know, my
36:22parents are losers. I'm a loser. I'm a
36:25bigger loser than either of them. I'm a
36:27bigger loser than both of them combined.
36:30And I don't know, you know, maybe I'm
36:33wrong about my theory that if your
36:36parents are losers, that means you have
36:39a very high chance of being a loser, but
36:42I'm pretty sure, you know, it makes
36:44sense. If your parents aren't losers,
36:48then you would probably learn things
36:51from them about, you know, how to
36:55effectively
36:56win friends and influence people, so to
36:59speak. But if you have parents that are
37:03losers like my parents, you know, what
37:06chance did I have? They never taught me.
37:12It's not just, you know, what you learn,
37:14what you're taught by your parents
37:16explicitly,
37:18but it's just watching them interact
37:21with people and interact with systems
37:26in the world around them. Like for
37:28example, how they interact, you know,
37:29with like uh credit cards and stuff like
37:34that. Like it's just
37:37everything I learned about the way to
37:40be, about how you operate in this world
37:42as an adult, it was all wrong.
37:46Everything was the wrong lesson. And I
37:49learned all this just basically through
37:51osmosis, you know, just learning by
37:53example, just watching how my parents do
37:56things. And obviously as a child in my
37:59formative years, I don't know that
38:02everything they're doing is wrong. I I
38:05didn't have any concept of that. It
38:08wasn't until I got, you know, maybe in
38:11my teenage years where I really started
38:12to realize like, oh, my parents, they're
38:17kind of losers. They're losers. They
38:21don't People don't really like them.
38:24People really don't like my parents that
38:27much. And there's a reason for that.
38:30It's because of how they are. It's
38:32because of who they are. It's because of
38:34the things they do and the things that
38:37they say and how they are. So, my
38:43parents are losers. I'm a loser. It is
38:46what it is.
38:48I do finally have a good thing going
38:51with the Indian girl. And I don't know
38:54if I've I've got a couple comments so
38:58far. People tell me, you know, you're
39:00just gonna keep calling your girlfriend
39:02the Indian girl. Um, but yeah, I think I
39:06mean because
39:08obviously I'm not going to say her
39:09actual name on here, but you know, it's
39:13whatever. I've already been calling her
39:15that in probably 10 videos so far.
39:18Whatever or however many. So, I'm just
39:21going to stick with that for now. Maybe
39:25eventually if she doesn't break up with
39:28me before the next month or so, you
39:32know, knock on wood,
39:34maybe we'll maybe we'll find a nickname
39:36for her to use on this channel. But for
39:39now, she's just going to be called the
39:40Indian girl. And I'm a huge freaking
39:44loser because of my parents. Partially
39:46because of them. I'm sure some of it is
39:48just my own fault.
39:51I might be that type of guy that could
39:53have had very successful non- loser
39:56parents and still ended up being a loser
39:59due to my own actions.
40:02I mean, well, that that doesn't even
40:04really make sense. You know, you are
40:06that wouldn't be me. If I had different
40:08parents, that'd be a different person.
40:09So,
40:12if you want to help me out, like the
40:16video, subscribe to the channel, leave a
40:20comment if you really want, or don't.
40:23You know, you don't have to do any of
40:24this. But thank you for watching.
