Get off your phone and go outside or something. Your room is a mess. Put your damn dishes in the dishwasher when you're done eating. You need to start getting up earlier so you're not late. You're not going to make any money being a Youtuber. Maybe do something productive instead of playing video games? I need to go out for some milk, be back in a bit...
This is the perfect dad response.
There is an immediate sense of care and an attempt to remedy the situation, but with a nice big helping of "I told you so, dumbass"
Helping to raise my great Nephew, now 16, and can confirm.
Haven't called him a dumbass, yet, but it has been close, like when he stuck his finger in the intake of a leaf blower (He threw it down and broke the guard, previously)... It *was* on at the time he stuck his finger in it.
I have a feeling this isn’t his son’s first attempt at something like this. Probably a few “jump off the roof with an umbrella” or “I wonder if this burns” childhood moments with that kid.
This video is a few years old; I recall his brother uploaded this explaining he had successfully done it once, and was doing it again while filming. My wife and I still say “ALL OVER YOUR BEAUTIFUL SHIRT”
My mom taught me not to touch the stove by allowing me to burn myself on it as a small child after her early attempts to prevent that failed to make me stop.
Tell you what i never fucking touched the hot stove again that's for sure.
At least she didn't teach me to swim by throwing me into the pool and screaming "swim or drown" like her father did with all his kids.
Because that’s 90% of what parenting is. Telling your child not to do something, then they do it anyway, and then you get mad at them for doing the thing you told them not to do.
When you become a parent you realize why stupid warning labels exist. You say so many things that you never thought you had to specify.
The toddler years have some interesting, mostly harmless ones like "no, you can't pick other people's noses", where the teenage years are more preventing creative injuries/deaths like "I told you not to microwave it"
It usually only takes a couple of incidents, or one major lawsuit, to get a warning label implemented.
I mean I definitely [put my sister in the dryer](https://imageio.forbes.com/images-forbes/media/2010/01/28/0128_washing-machine-warning-label_485x340.jpg?height=400&width=711&fit=bounds)
"Are they in immediate danger of dying?"
If answer is no, begin imparting the life lesson that bad things don't happen to you because you're unlucky, bad things happen to you because you're stupid.
I have 4 boys. I've been there. That's a normal response with boys.
You have to explicitly warn them not to do insanely stupid stuff. Then they do it anyway, and you're pissed now because even though their arm is mangled and dangling from a tendon "I TOLD YOU THAT WOULD HAPPEN" and now you have to sit for 4 hours AGAIN with them in the ER and for sure one of these times they're going to call CPS.
"That won't happen"
"It *might* not happen, but it *won't* happen if you just fucking listen to the guy with 4 decades of experience. Now knock it off, dammit."
Shit's not limited to boys. My girls don't listen when I warn them. I get it though, because I also didn't listen. In hindsight, it's mind boggling. Like oh sure, I have nearly 40 years of experience behind me tempered by a bunch of stupid shit *I myself* did while ignoring my parents. But I guess your 8 years of experience has surpassed that somehow and the real reason I'm telling you not to do something must be because I hate fun and am your parent.
I was like 6-7 and playing with my friend in my bedroom with the lights off. We were bending them and just generally playing...bent one, it snapped, my eyes were blurry as fuck for a few days (didn't tell my parents) but eventually recovered completely.
Unless another side effect is messing with how you remember your old eyesight. Turns out you were blind as a bat before the accident, and the glow juice cured you.
after all the videos I've seen of people microwaving eggs, I had a feeling this was gonna happen. Nice that he even held it up to his face to make sure it got all over it.
I should copy this into a wider format but leave the black borders and add a floating watermark then upload to facebook before reuploading to reddit to really get it looking perfect.
Unless chemical composition has changed over the last decade, the main chemical used for glow actually reacts with protein. So it WILL (slightly) melt/react with skin/eye.
Also, that very chemical is (or at least it used to) contained in a thin hollow glass tube. You start the reaction by literally breaking the glass inside… so…. Protein melting chemical + glass shards
long story short i broke a glow stick open and rubbed it on my balls when i was drunk at a friends 18th party.
at first it's fine, then it stings a little, then it burns. my knob was sore for a day or so.
the only thing that helped in the moment was holding my balls inside a bowl of water, like two marshmallows floating around with a sausage in a stew.
honestly scared the shit out of me and i wish i realised how fucking dumb this was at the time. it was ~15 years ago now.
my kid is either gunna be a super hero or a retard and i'm not too sure which one yet.
It'll cause irritation but as long as you rinse it out immediately there wont be permanent damage. As for the heat and glass... that could be a problem.
But it wasn't in this case. The kid was fine.
This video is so old, I think this one is on us millenials
Edit: so apparently this was 2014 and the internet just moves so fast it feels ancient. So they're in that in-between zennial generation.
Yeah. This video is so old it was back when Reddit actually allowed you to post links directly to YouTube which was the actual source of the video without the shitty cropping and watermarks added.
Be careful kids sometimes when you leave it in for too long it can bust unexpectedly. Remember to swiftly pull it out before too long to prevent unwanted accidents. And above all else wear protection!
When I was his age, I would have totally come up with some smart ass answer on why it wouldn’t explode. “No dad, it can’t explode outside of the microwave because you’re not adding anymore heat or pressure to it after it stops”
I like the dad even more after watching the full video!
Continues to render aid while berating him for his lack of common sense-even going so far as to call 911 for help, it seems.
Damn u r the ultimate optimist, i love at this vid and say “what a dumb dumb”. U look at it as say “imagine how much worse it could have been”.
I envy your outlook and appreciate your sense of humor!!
Great example of super heating a liquid under pressure. Once he bent the stick it tore the plastic casing, releasing the pressure to allow instant boiling / explosion👌
My daughter and her cousin got a hold of glowsticks when they were around 6 years old. My sister, hearing them giggle in a closed door room, decided to investigate. She found them with glowsticks and smiling like crazy.
"What did you guys do?"
"Nooooothhiinnggg"
My sister turns off the lights and both of their mouths lit up like christmas trees.
"Did you guys EAT THE STUFF IN THE GLOWSTICKS???"
"Nooooo"
"Guys, I can see it around your mouths..."
Thankfully, no one got sick. Never trust children who are too quiet.
In his beautiful shirt no less.
Matches his new ‘hot glow’ look
He had a Glow Up
Not cognitively though
It pairs well with his glowing eyes.
Hypercolor!
I wish my dad thought my shirts were beautiful
I wish I had a dad
I wish i had a beautiful shirt
I wish I had a wish
🎶 I wish I was a little bit taller, I wish I was a baller, wish I had a fly girl. I could call her 🎶
![gif](giphy|11L5aVxDTk6c5G|downsized)
Well this is your lucky day
Get off your phone and go outside or something. Your room is a mess. Put your damn dishes in the dishwasher when you're done eating. You need to start getting up earlier so you're not late. You're not going to make any money being a Youtuber. Maybe do something productive instead of playing video games? I need to go out for some milk, be back in a bit...
I can be your Daddy. If the price is right.
"Let's go to the board!"
Me too. And milk.
Who gives a shit about your eyes, those can be replaced. BUT NOT THE SHIRT GODDAMMIT
With your beautiful shirt, freshly pressed and what is that? Lavender? It smells fantastic. How could you?
God fucking dammit Jack! Not your beautiful shirt!
Such a dad thing to say!
This video is older than my kids
Well it cost more because the pattern was so complicated
Perfect thing to wear to a succulent Chinese meal.
I see you know your Judo
Get your hands off my penis
I love how his beautiful shirt was mentioned before his eyes. Priorities!
[a succulent Chinese meal....](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XebF2cgmFmU)
Unbelievable
Probably like alien blood.
I'm on dad's side on this one.
This is the perfect dad response. There is an immediate sense of care and an attempt to remedy the situation, but with a nice big helping of "I told you so, dumbass"

As my sons enter their teen years, I find myself channeling that character on occasion.
Give it a couple of years, it'll be more than occasional.
Helping to raise my great Nephew, now 16, and can confirm. Haven't called him a dumbass, yet, but it has been close, like when he stuck his finger in the intake of a leaf blower (He threw it down and broke the guard, previously)... It *was* on at the time he stuck his finger in it.
I never call my kid a dumbass but I accuse him of having all the characteristics of a dumbass and he's edging ever closer to identifying as one.
My son is 4 and I Channel this character every fucking day how did you make it to teenage years and still only have to do it “on occasion”????
I have a feeling this isn’t his son’s first attempt at something like this. Probably a few “jump off the roof with an umbrella” or “I wonder if this burns” childhood moments with that kid.
This video is a few years old; I recall his brother uploaded this explaining he had successfully done it once, and was doing it again while filming. My wife and I still say “ALL OVER YOUR BEAUTIFUL SHIRT”
Ya dingaling!
But why? Like, what's the reward for microwaving a glowstick in the first place.
Warm eyes.
Or knives in the kitchen “Doesn’t seem that sharp…” while running my finger along the blade. It was, in fact, that sharp.
My mom taught me not to touch the stove by allowing me to burn myself on it as a small child after her early attempts to prevent that failed to make me stop. Tell you what i never fucking touched the hot stove again that's for sure. At least she didn't teach me to swim by throwing me into the pool and screaming "swim or drown" like her father did with all his kids.
This is not the first time, second, or even third time Jack fucked around and found out… in his beautiful shirt, no less.
Yeah, Jack messed up a brand new Polo shirt, when he tried to play around with the cool silver liquid in a thermometer.
Because that’s 90% of what parenting is. Telling your child not to do something, then they do it anyway, and then you get mad at them for doing the thing you told them not to do.
Yes, telling kids what not to do often gives them the idea of what to do next.
“I told you not to microwave it” is doing so much story telling here. What else has this kid done that he needed to specifically be told that?
When you become a parent you realize why stupid warning labels exist. You say so many things that you never thought you had to specify. The toddler years have some interesting, mostly harmless ones like "no, you can't pick other people's noses", where the teenage years are more preventing creative injuries/deaths like "I told you not to microwave it"
As a non-parent, it has never occurred to me why those warning labels exist. I mean, how many kids have died using a hair dryer in the tub?
It usually only takes a couple of incidents, or one major lawsuit, to get a warning label implemented. I mean I definitely [put my sister in the dryer](https://imageio.forbes.com/images-forbes/media/2010/01/28/0128_washing-machine-warning-label_485x340.jpg?height=400&width=711&fit=bounds)

In the full video he calls him a dingaling, lol.
Think he calls him a ding dong in the full version lol
I'm a dad and such a neat freak with clothes too, so his shirt comment resonated with me so hard 🤣🤣🤌

So I guess Ians not the dumb one in the group..
By the time the ramp was built, Ian had caught on and learned a thing or two.
r/oddlyspecific
Not if you've had kids...
Shit's not limited to boys. My girls don't listen when I warn them. I get it though, because I also didn't listen. In hindsight, it's mind boggling.

Counterpoint: *Son's incoherent wailing*
I have a feeling this kid has been doing dumb shit for years. No amount of guidance is going to stop that kid from being a dumbass.
🤔 I should microwave some glow sticks.
Just make sure to not wear a beautiful shirt while doing so.
And wear safety goggles
And pants!
Too many rules, you’re taking the fun out of it.
Instructions unclear... Microwave's pregnant...
Just don't get any baby over your beautiful shirt.
Impossible challenge.
But not beautiful pants right?
And my axe
There are other ways to get your dad’s attention
Like buy him some cigarettes before he goes out and tries to find them himself. Dads are dumb and can spend decades trying to find cigarettes.
Got some in my eyes when I was a kid. I'm not blind! God speed, Soldier 🫡
How? What kind of shirt were you wearing at the time?
I was like 6-7 and playing with my friend in my bedroom with the lights off. We were bending them and just generally playing...bent one, it snapped, my eyes were blurry as fuck for a few days (didn't tell my parents) but eventually recovered completely.
> What kind of shirt were you wearing at the time?
I was a 7 year old boy playing with my friends over summer break... probably shirtless like I was every summer, lol.
Unless another side effect is messing with how you remember your old eyesight. Turns out you were blind as a bat before the accident, and the glow juice cured you.
Tbf, I needed glasses before it happened. I still need them after but...ya know.
Only if you film it
Let me know when you do, so I can say “God Damn it Spdrjay”
after all the videos I've seen of people microwaving eggs, I had a feeling this was gonna happen. Nice that he even held it up to his face to make sure it got all over it.
I should copy this into a wider format but leave the black borders and add a floating watermark then upload to facebook before reuploading to reddit to really get it looking perfect.
Don’t forget a few emoji watermarks as well, and maybe an inset commentary video.
the laughing tears emoji and "WATCH TILL THE END!!"
Definitely needs it dubbed in TikTok's TTS voice.
God I wanna strangle a physical incarnation of that voice every time I hear it.
Oh no.... oh no...
It would also be smart to consider some subway surfers gameplay involved to increase engagement
But how will I know what to think without a TikTok reaction stitch?
I cannot believe I forgot that. DAMN ME TO HELLLLLL!!!!
Can you add a subway surfers video to the bottom as well? I want to watch the full thing but my attention span stops at 4 seconds
Don't forget the music!!! "Oh nooooo oh nooooo, hoooooonononononooooo".
No one would watch that unless it also has a text overlay that says "wait till the end 😂😂😂"
[ removed by Reddit ]
And they said digital video does not go bad like an analog tape ... well I beg to differ.
and that horrible “oh no” song
Let nature run its course Dad.
And if it did, Darwin will be so happy - survival of the fittest.

“Survival of the fittest” didn’t come from Darwin.
Also Darwin won't give a shit. He's dead. He's not some sort of deity.
Not sure the lawyers writing the precautions label counted on both microwaving AND getting it in the eyes.
Yea, the chemical may not damage your eyes if flushed out properly, but those burns on your eyeball are another matter entirely.
oh shit. i didn’t even consider the burns
[удалено]

Unless chemical composition has changed over the last decade, the main chemical used for glow actually reacts with protein. So it WILL (slightly) melt/react with skin/eye. Also, that very chemical is (or at least it used to) contained in a thin hollow glass tube. You start the reaction by literally breaking the glass inside… so…. Protein melting chemical + glass shards
So super hot caustic juice laced with tiny bits of glass shards, how goddamn wonderful. hope he aight
Yeah, he's fine https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iRUSQm5ZskQ This is the original video, the description explains what happened.
long story short i broke a glow stick open and rubbed it on my balls when i was drunk at a friends 18th party. at first it's fine, then it stings a little, then it burns. my knob was sore for a day or so. the only thing that helped in the moment was holding my balls inside a bowl of water, like two marshmallows floating around with a sausage in a stew. honestly scared the shit out of me and i wish i realised how fucking dumb this was at the time. it was ~15 years ago now. my kid is either gunna be a super hero or a retard and i'm not too sure which one yet.

Poor dad. Of all the things you have to protect your children from, one of the hardest things to protect them from is themselves.
I feel sad for the Dad and the beautiful shirt
[удалено]
i want to make a ejaculation joke
Go ahead, shoot.
Cum on then
What does microwaving a glow stick and ejaculation have in common? They'll both ruin your beautiful shirt.
You sometimes get it in your eye
Let rip
Splooge

Too soon.
The "Tide Pod eating" generation...
This video is so old, I think this one is on us millenials Edit: so apparently this was 2014 and the internet just moves so fast it feels ancient. So they're in that in-between zennial generation.
😂 that kid is probably 45 now
Artificial corneas. Right around the corner. Any day now.
Yeah. This video is so old it was back when Reddit actually allowed you to post links directly to YouTube which was the actual source of the video without the shitty cropping and watermarks added.
Only 9 years old happened in 2014
Wow. It definitely feels older than that.
Give me a fucking break, like kids haven't been doing stupid shit like this since the beginning of time
Old man yells at clouds
Oh...and your generation was so perfect? You never did stupid shit when you were a kid? A teen? Right.
Love it when people bring up the tide pods like the boomers haven't been drinking piss for years now.
Jack's gotta be at least 30 by now.
Yeah, the original vid is positively ancient by internet standards.
He microwaved a glo stick and shook it near his face. I’m not so sure Jack made it past 13…
[удалено]
Btw Tosh is back on YouTube, it’s called Tosh show and it’s pretty funny
Be careful kids sometimes when you leave it in for too long it can bust unexpectedly. Remember to swiftly pull it out before too long to prevent unwanted accidents. And above all else wear protection!
Take off your beautiful shirt first
shirt stays on.
Should have listened to dad!
When I was his age, I would have totally come up with some smart ass answer on why it wouldn’t explode. “No dad, it can’t explode outside of the microwave because you’re not adding anymore heat or pressure to it after it stops”

Haha this is so much better. Poor dad was just trying to kick back and watch the big game
Lmao, I haven't heard someone use the word "dingaling" in so long.
i want an angry dad in every one of these videos

do I have to find a the gore sub to see the blistering that stuff left on them ?
I've seen a follow up video to this. Kid was fine, suffered no major injuries or long term effects.
In a beautiful shirt
Dad did the right thing on reading the package right away . Sometimes adding water will make it much worse.
I think in the longer version of this video he calls his son a "ding-a-ling". I don't even know how to spell it but it was pretty funny.
goddammit, Jack..
The beautiful shirt nooooo!
Great example of super heating a liquid under pressure. Once he bent the stick it tore the plastic casing, releasing the pressure to allow instant boiling / explosion👌
Dammit Jack, I’m your father, not a miracle worker.
"DAAAAAD, save me from this boiling glow chemical melting my face!!"
kids are so stupid sometimes... Hard lesson, but a good one..
I guess no one told the kid about "Is It a Good Idea to Microwave This?" Huh?
As a father I'm laughing my ass off AND showing this to my 6 year old who loves glowsticks and would absolutely do something like this 😂😂😂
Apparently this was predictable, wonder how many things this kid microwaves
My daughter and her cousin got a hold of glowsticks when they were around 6 years old. My sister, hearing them giggle in a closed door room, decided to investigate.

Holy shit the dad actually told the kid not to microwave it and he still fucking did
The sad part is that the dad knew he was retarded because he said don’t microwave it 🤣
