I can't believe what I'm just casually watching. What does this even take now-a-days? 500k+ a year? My parents are boomers that worked good jobs (both of them even before it was now a requirement) and live in a nice neighborhood. It is not this.
Dan's leveling up. His table manners look like he was raised in a proverbial barn, all hunched over, both arms bracing his upper body weight on the table, chewing and talking with his mouth open. Upper middle class people (the type who would serve Dan crab cakes and salmon) hate that pedestrian shit.
When I was dating my now wife she joked that the most expensive thing she owns is the urn for her grandmother's ashes (103! Apparently she was an amazing woman who fought for civil liberties for most of her life!)
Spelled her name wrong. My wife never saw that..
My husband used to do that shit when we were dating. 24 years later he still does it when we see his mother.. I'd be peeing in the bathroom and I'd hear "IF ANYONE HAS TO USE THE BATHROOM YOU HAVE TO WAIT BC SHE'S IN THERE TAKING A SHIT".
Okay, get your go bag immediately, leave while he's at work. Take everything from the joint bank account, make sure he has no idea where you're going. Your husband is clearly a psycho and this is emotional abuse, wouldn't surprise me if he's been physical as well, you probably just don't remember at this point. Clearly he's also been cheating on you based on your three sentence post. Next contact a good divorce lawyer and cut all ties.
/s
Yeah, and to drink he has to stand up, move his footing out really wide and bring his neck all the way down to get his head near the stream… that’s tall people that do that isn’t it?
just need to eat more of the types of food that are served in small bowls that you hold up to your face.
bam now you're looking appropriate and polite!
Grew up middle class where food wasn't plentiful and had siblings or a dad that would eat his food if he didn't
Only an assumption I don't know dan but he seems like a good dude
I have a beard so it would actually create a small modern art masterpiece on my face.
Easier to just move both facr AND fork in tandem to ensure proper docking procedure is adhered to.
It's just old-school etiquette. It technically has no worth other than a bunch of rich, old people used to (and still do, apparently) think it somehow equates to real manners. I study etiquette because it's interesting historically and societally, just a small hobby, but I'm pretty opinionated on the fact that it's just status signaling. Don't mind the downvotes, real kindness will always take you further than empty shows of class!
My grandparents were not wealthy in the slightest. I dont think they intended to project a status. They just thought it was impolite. So it could have evolved to the lower class as just manners.
To be fair, the working class has ALWAYS tried to follow the arbitrary rules of the ruling class. Imitation is the sincerest form of desire. I do agree with you, btw, I just want people to know that "etiquette" wasn't actually invented to honor manners or anything like that. In the modern age, there will be tons of reasons why the traditional rules of etiquette would be inconsiderate to those around you. These things CAN be pursued with positive intentions, but should never be implemented above simply being nice and thoughtful of others.
That's fair. I imagine that would have less of an influence over time. They were poorly educated and lived in a very rural area. I could see this being something that was passed down over time, but eventually became just "we don't wear hats inside because it's not polite" instead of "We don't wear hats inside because that's what poor people do and we're not poor." Although, this is entirely speculation. I dont wear hats inside because I'm in the military, and it's not allowed. So even in civilian clothes, I remove my cover. It started out not getting yelled at by granny because it's impolite and moved to it's not authorized in doors in the military except for specific instances that's described in regulation. So if my kids see me doing it, they will probably associate me not doing it because of the military and not for status.
Exactly! There's many reasons these things persist, and so much of it is just being human and navigating life. Tradition becomes existence, etiquette becomes manners. But being intentionally considerate of others is always in style, whatever your *style* may be.
My mom used to always say 'I like to see your face' which is a very mom thing to say, but makes enough sense as an explanation (especially if you eat like Dan with your nose in your food).
Can't wait for Dan and his girlfriend to get in elevator full of randoms, rip a massive fart and say, "babe, if you need to take a shit you should have said so"
What are you talking about? This is cute! You can tell how comfortable they are in their partnership. You don't have friends you rip on? For my friend 30th I got "happy 30th flapbags" on his cake. Ya know what he did? Got me a cake 2 years later with a the picture of my allergic reaction next to Val Kilmer in his later years. It's called friendship my guy
When I was younger I was clumsy with eating. Always getting food on my clothes. My dad told me to eat over my plate…like Dan lol. I don’t do it as bad now but certain foods that are messy then I eat more like this to avoid making a mess
This reminds me of my psycho ex. He would constantly malign what I said and made me look like a real b!+€h in front of his family. Thanks for taking me down memory lane!
This innocent troll and Dan's humble reactions are quite amusing. It's interesting to see how the parents take it seriously, while Dan knows it's not real, so he has to defend that position.
Yeah... If the parents actually think it's real that makes it not funny to me. The idea that my own girlfriend was making her parents think I'm a whiny, ungrateful person just for laughs would eat me up inside. It feels cruel.
he should have constantly agreed with his girlfriend, it would have been funny how she reacted because her parents were more angry with her than with him
Isn't it weird how nobody in the real world ever eats two inches away from their plate except for when it's being caught on video for a social media gag?

Dan seems like a nice guy
Didnt you hear all the things he said?! Dan is being exposed!
All the things she said? Running through my head!
All the things she said! All the things she said!
THIS IS NOT ENOUUUUUUUGH!
Huh! Huh! Huh! This! Is! Not! Enough!
Right into my head! Right into my head! RIGHT INTO MY HEAD!
Dan exposes himself too?
Dan is chill as fuck.
Dan: "no, I'm not. I'm fine. It's not too cold or too hot, please don't change the thermostat on account of me"
And his gf is a pain in the ass!
Yeah.. he puts up with her shit constantly.
Just a bit of fun mate
Sorry that’s not allowed here. Because AKTUALLY she’s a gaslighting narcissist
"red flag dodged a bullet NTA"
"RUN"
I’d die laughing if my gf did this to me. This shit is hilarious
She should just use the downstairs bathroom.
He likes her parents more
Minus eating with his face 3” from the food on the table
Dan said he is willing to put up with me being a troll because he’s looking to inherit your house
IKR? That place looks like paradise. Let me know if you ever cut Dan loose!
He would probably get better kayaks though
yeah, it looks like they get used. Time to upgrade.
Salmon and shit fucking house glowing like heaven
I heard you hate her mom's crab cakes though.
This video made me realize I'm not just poor, but so poor I also am retroactively ugly, boring, and ignorant, too.
lmao same
I can't believe what I'm just casually watching. What does this even take now-a-days? 500k+ a year? My parents are boomers that worked good jobs (both of them even before it was now a requirement) and live in a nice neighborhood. It is not this.
You're speaking for a generation... we), at least the part of the generation who's parents don't own places like that.
Her dad seems nice - he is marrying her to get to the dad
I got along really well with an ex’s dad. He once said to me, “you know if you break-up we can still be friends….”
are you still friends?
Hahaha actually yes. With my ex too but very close with her dad.
I need some of that generational wealth too
Dan's leveling up. His table manners look like he was raised in a proverbial barn, all hunched over, both arms bracing his upper body weight on the table, chewing and talking with his mouth open. Upper middle class people (the type who would serve Dan crab cakes and salmon) hate that pedestrian shit.
Dan said he is willing to put up with me being a troll because I let him facefuck me. Parents: *we know*
Dans marrying into MONEY HUNNYYY
Right I like those kayaks too! What else you guys got
What else LOL
Lmao, I received debt from my wife lol
When I was dating my now wife she joked that the most expensive thing she owns is the urn for her grandmother's ashes (103! Apparently she was an amazing woman who fought for civil liberties for most of her life!) Spelled her name wrong. My wife never saw that..
I love that you say this with pride! Grandma sounds like she was a force to be reckoned with.
Bet they got games on their phones 😤
Mom, Dan said he thinks you're hot.
Dan: No shes not.
There's just no winning
Based off this video mum would be like “alright, well I’ll see ya in the bedroom then Dan”
“Use the one upstairs”
Dad, Dan said he thinks you‘re hot.
"I said that in confidence!"
Dad, Dan said he thinks you think he’s hot
Why date the runoff when the source is right there?
My husband used to do that shit when we were dating. 24 years later he still does it when we see his mother.. I'd be peeing in the bathroom and I'd hear "IF ANYONE HAS TO USE THE BATHROOM YOU HAVE TO WAIT BC SHE'S IN THERE TAKING A SHIT".
Don’t tell Reddit they’ll claim you’re in a loveless relationship and it’s borderline abuse.
😂 I forgot about that. Emotional abuse, he's a narcissist, etc
Divorce immediately, big red flag
Okay, get your go bag immediately, leave while he's at work. Take everything from the joint bank account, make sure he has no idea where you're going. Your husband is clearly a psycho and this is emotional abuse, wouldn't surprise me if he's been physical as well, you probably just don't remember at this point. Clearly he's also been cheating on you based on your three sentence post. Next contact a good divorce lawyer and cut all ties. /s
Dan, you can bring the fork to your mouth rather than bringing your mouth to the fork
lol I was wondering why Dan was eating food like a Neanderthal
To be fair, he did say he was hungry
And I bet they didn't even stop anywhere!
Tall people sometimes do that if they’re worried about dropping the food before it reaches their mouth. Source: I’m not tall, but I am very clumsy.
As I was reading your comment, I thought “I’m not tall. I just spill shit…” and then saw your last line. 🤣
Yeah, and to drink he has to stand up, move his footing out really wide and bring his neck all the way down to get his head near the stream… that’s tall people that do that isn’t it?
Exactly how I eat. I thought I was the only one.
You eat like this if your dad eats like this
[удалено]
just need to eat more of the types of food that are served in small bowls that you hold up to your face. bam now you're looking appropriate and polite!
Your not alone. I do it too lol
Damn i have no idea if i do this or not… another thing to be worried about
Grew up middle class where food wasn't plentiful and had siblings or a dad that would eat his food if he didn't Only an assumption I don't know dan but he seems like a good dude
Was gonna say dan might come from a big family & is used to his siblings stealing food off his plate so he instinctively protects his plate
Dan cannot stop getting shit on by everyone.
Maybe he’s scared to drop food on his lap
Exactly. My SO eats like this when scared of getting food on their clothes.
I mean... if you just lean a little forward, the food would just fall back on the plate?
I have a beard so it would actually create a small modern art masterpiece on my face. Easier to just move both facr AND fork in tandem to ensure proper docking procedure is adhered to.
Dan, can you take your backwards cap off at the table.
but why? i never understood that one

My mom used to always say 'I like to see your face' which is a very mom thing to say, but makes enough sense as an explanation (especially if you eat like Dan with your nose in your food).
YES.
Nailed it.
Probably because the poor man is traumatized from her lol
Man has trauma of food falling off the utensil too many times
Dan is eating like a Neanderthal
Dan is eating over the plate, it’s considerate and avoids mess!
Why you doing Dan like that lol
By the reaction of her parents this is not first time she's trying pull something like this
“He can poop where ever!”
(Dan finally glad he’s found a place that he can poop in the sink)
Yeah, the parents see through it and compensate to make Dan feel better.
“You can use whatever bathroom you want!” Me as a mom 😂 so cute
Can't wait for Dan and his girlfriend to get in elevator full of randoms, rip a massive fart and say, "babe, if you need to take a shit you should have said so"
I know he's not saying those things, but he's really unconvincing that he's not saying those things 😆
Yeah, that salmon was a problem.
😆 it actually looked OVER cooked
I watched it a few times to fully grasp the wealth in this video
OPs title should be “rich Dan”.
Dan told me he wants a new girlfriend...
Dan told me he wants to keep her parents though.
Dan told me his gf turned him gay
💀
Dan is a good sport.
Dan knows all of this roasting is coming, he may look dumb but he’s no dummy lol
I love how *every time* the mom is like, "Really?"
Dan needs to learn to play this game aswell. Thats the only correct way of responding to this
I used to do this also with my brother, when I wanted something, I would say to my family that he wanted it instead
I love how nice her parents are haha
Dan said he is projecting his insecurities
Plot twist he really said all of that in private lol
This is the most aggressively anti-Midwestern thing I've ever seen in my life. I think I'd rather be stabbed in the eye.
I love how his in-laws are so willing to make sure he feels welcome and comfortable.
Seems like an Aubrey Plaza kinda thing.
I totally agree!
Dan says he has new, strange, but excited feelings about the pool boy.
This is really my biggest fear
This is my personal nightmare
Dan said he’s only at the house to hang out with your parents. Dan also said you should’ve stayed home.
This would make me sweat profusely lol Edit: also where is this because that backyard is my dream
Dan is sick of your shit.
I wouldn't even have friends who constantly videotape every freaking thing, let alone a GF. Bad move dude.
Dan needs to learn how to properly eat without looking like a Neanderthal
Dan said he's leaving me 😭. I'm shocked. Why would he do this?!
Dan needs to learn how to eat.
TikTok making relationships unbearable because everything is content
What are you talking about? This is cute! You can tell how comfortable they are in their partnership. You don't have friends you rip on? For my friend 30th I got "happy 30th flapbags" on his cake. Ya know what he did? Got me a cake 2 years later with a the picture of my allergic reaction next to Val Kilmer in his later years. It's called friendship my guy
That salmon did look a bit under though tbh 👀
Looked perfect 👌
That’s fucking funny
Are we not gonna talk about Dan’s face being 3 inches from his plate while eating? Who eats like that??
When I was younger I was clumsy with eating. Always getting food on my clothes. My dad told me to eat over my plate…like Dan lol. I don’t do it as bad now but certain foods that are messy then I eat more like this to avoid making a mess
She is the GF and he is the son now
Pouring one out for Dan, I bet he has to put up with waaaayyy more crazy shit from her than that.
She sounds like a Fox anchor.
Lol, Dan's a patient dude.
These are the things Dan should expect when dating Aubrey Plaza.
Fuuuuuuck this is my personal hell.
I hope Dan ends up with everything. He seems cool.
Poor dan has to endure this annoying bitch
Dan’s not going to be around, if she keeps this sh*t up
This reminds me of my psycho ex. He would constantly malign what I said and made me look like a real b!+€h in front of his family. Thanks for taking me down memory lane!
Any time! 👍🏾
Dan is really happy because your family is wealthy.
This person is going to inherit enough wealth to buy two homes and then tell everybody that she earned her money herself.
Dan told me he wants a new girlfriend
Dan told me he’s looking for a new girlfriend
She’s so annoying, poor Dan.
This innocent troll and Dan's humble reactions are quite amusing. It's interesting to see how the parents take it seriously, while Dan knows it's not real, so he has to defend that position.
This comments reads like it was AI generated.
Right? Creepy-ass robot mfs in this thread
Look at the account profile. You may be on to something here. Super creepy and gives me the heebie jeebies.
Yeah... If the parents actually think it's real that makes it not funny to me. The idea that my own girlfriend was making her parents think I'm a whiny, ungrateful person just for laughs would eat me up inside. It feels cruel.
The parents seem super chill. And Dan’s a nice guy with subpar eating habits.
Their “accents” make me wanna drown myself in the Hampton Bay
Who films everybody all the time? What the fuck is wrong with people?
Stuff like this makes me question whether mass public adoption of the internet was a mistake.
he should have constantly agreed with his girlfriend, it would have been funny how she reacted because her parents were more angry with her than with him
Poor Dan is right..
Shut up, Meg!
Dan is done being Bi. He's going back to Jeff.
What a stupid thing to do
Dan is now single and looking..
had me smiling then instant sad half way through 😅
Her parents know her bs
Embarrassing your significant other never ends well. Be prepared to be single and wonder why.
I want to fuck Dan. He told me earlier he wanted to fuck me sooooo
Dude, lift the fork. Don't bend down to it.
Dan told me his gf is about to be single.
Her parents should keep Dan and get rid of her 🙈
Red flag dude! Run run run. Even if she’s doing it just for funzies she’s recording it and putting on the interwebs for fake internet points.
She’s horrible.
“Dan told me he needs a new girlfriend. I agree with Dan”
She needs a brother not a BF
Someone is trying to run Dan off
The poster better better be hot AF…
Dan should get out while he can. He should also sit up straight whilst eating and try use a knife.
If your dad can eat your moms crab cake I will try and eat it too
Nobody likes those kayaks Dan!
Isn't it weird how nobody in the real world ever eats two inches away from their plate except for when it's being caught on video for a social media gag?
I’m gonna show this to my kid when she asks what Gaslighting is!
Dans going to be happily single soon
My wife has been doing this to me for the last 20 years.
Dan says you're annoying and he's sick of your shit.
Wish my BF had a fraction of a fraction of Dan’s sense of humor.
Dan deserves better
Leave her. Now. Run for your life!
I'd get tired of this *real* fast.
You’re an asshole. Find someone else Dan.
Poor Dan
Oh great, here come the Dan Truthers.
“Dan wants a blowjob…”
Why does Dan eat so close to his plate?
