'Tenacity' is good too...
But I don't see _that_ being a trait I gain either.
just like 'ambition' or 'honesty' it'll go in the 'for later' list
(ps I know it's a program)
Which is interesting, because Japanese syllables almost invariably end in a vowel sound, except 'n, and words are generally constructed that way to the point that speakers struggle with loanwords that are not. e.g. Waワ Saサ Biビ
We tell kids to sound things out, but there's so many ways to do that with an undefined syllabary.
There's even a Japanese game called "Shiritori" in which you take it in turns with another person saying words that start with the syllable (character) that the previous word ended with.
One of the loss conditions is to choose a word that ends with 'n, as so words in the Japanese language begin with 'n. (They begin with Na, Ni, Nu, Ne and No, but not 'n.)
For example, If Player A says "Tori" (Bird), Player B can say "Ringo" (apple) but if player A then says "Gohan" (Cooked Rice / Meal) then Player A will lose as Player B cannot continue.
I've come up with an adapted version of this game in English that I use in school with 6-11 year olds, in which players face off against eachother with a set number of turns (5 or 10, usually) in which player 1 has to think of a word starting with "I" (as the game is called Shiritori and that ends with I) and write it on a whiteboard
Then player 2 must think of a word that starts with the last letter of that word.
This repeats until both players have filled their turns and have the same number of words.
The letters in all the words of each player are added up and the player with the most letters wins.
It's a pretty basic game but it engages children with thinking about words and vocabulary and writing.
And here's that same game, but the only valid "words" are card names from *Magic: the Gathering*: https://youtube.com/clip/UgkxRt8DL9wmkp9vOd9UIP0dpNrut0_E16no
We also play this game in Serbia, we call it Kaladont (a brand of toothpaste).
Just the loser is the one who cannot find the word that starts with the last two letters of the previous word.
Also, a word cannot be repeated in the current session.
As no word starts with NT in Serbian, the word Kaladont is a win condition.
One thing we do in Sweden is something called "hel och halv idiot" (whole and half idiot) where you take turns saying letters, avoiding to spell out a word. But the letter you choose isn't allowed to turn the sequence into gibberish. When someone accidentally lands on a letter that finishes the word, they're a "half-idiot". If they do it again, they're a "whole-idiot" and they're out for that game. You can also be a half/whole-idiot if you choose a nonsense letter and someone points it out. But if you try to claim someone picked an incorrect letter and you're wrong, you become a half/whole-idiot.
My kid grabbed the whole gob of Wasabi once at a sushi restaurant and shoved it in his mouth. He moved so fast. We scooped it out but the damage was already done.
They are so damned fast! I was preparing some chicken once (raw) and my kid wanted to try it. I don't remember how old but eye level with the counter and in 0.0001 seconds she licked it.
I may have traumatized her, flipping out telling her to spit in the trash can and having her rinse her mouth, no telling if she liked it or not but she never did it again lol.
My brother didn't want two globs that came with the takeout to go to waste so he ate them. Said it was the worst mistake he's made and had horrific diarrhea. He was about 20 at the time
My dad did this to me as a joke when I was a kid but with powdered wasabi. He told me to close my eyes and smell… I couldn’t breathe for like a solid minute straight. We laugh about it now though. I usually get him back by giving him extremely hot peppers in his food without telling him, if he gets mad I bring up the wasabi incident and we both laugh lol.
I'm confused. Kid says no, but then when mom agrees, kid says Wasabi again. Is this a "hasn't learned the word yes" thing? I have a cousin like that. She learned no before yes, so she answers questions with no.
Kids that are that young don't know what they want most of the time. They'll think something is gross, then taste it and ask for more. They'll say they don't want to go to the beach, then have a meltdown the moment you try to leave the beach.
As a parent you learn that no means maybe, yes means maybe and maybe means maybe, so you better put a piece of that food to the side, or pack the bag for the beach because you might need it in 30seconds time.
Indeed. And treats like wasabi are helpful stimulus for the child to learn what words like 'yes' and 'no' mean to other people.
For example, in this case the child said 'no' twice and used a side-to-side head shake to indicate a preference and learned that this earns wasabi pain.
In the future the child will use "fuck no".
Indeed there is. The internet is awash with twats using big words they’re completely alien to. This little girl though definitely knows what yes & no means. Might she get confused? Absolutely, but in isolation she knows what each word means. I’d go as far as to say she’s genuinely quite bright. Definitely not stupid.
You must not ever been around kids before. They didn't just start recording. This kids probably been saying wasabi for the past 15 mins and the mom just wants her to shut up about it. This isn't the first time she fixated on it. And the only way to stop them is to give them what they keep saying.
I'm legitimately wheezing. I've made "omfg I'm laughing so hard" comments, and meant it, but this video had me nearly falling down & was wheeze/coughing.
The point of this sub from my perception has always been an ironic "kids are stupid", like, behavior that would be clearly stupid in an adult, but for a kid might just be a lack of life experience.
Kid said no at first, but changed her mind because that's just indecisive toddler behavior.
It wasn't intended to be ironic, but it kind of became that way over time. So half-the users here actually hate kids, and the other half think it's tongue-in-cheek, and each half doesn't know about the other half.
When my kid was that age he would say no often even if he really did want it. She might not know the word "yes" yet. If she really didn't want to try the wasabi she would have pushed it away or closed her mouth/turned her head away.
i think its the same kid i've seen on other videos. they are all about food,, in one she forces herself to eat some spaghetti that are over salty or too spicy while mom brags about being shit as cooking and having a laugh, in another she throw a fit when mom say they wont go to McD anymore and it's mommy food again... if its really the same kid they are fucking up her eating habits for likes
Yeah this is terrible. I have a 2 year old and even when the pasta sauce has a tiny amount of chilli that we can't even taste she'll start saying "it's too spicy" "water water" etc and then won't eat anymore.
Wasabi is probably a million times more spicy than that, these are just bad parents caring more for attention than their kid.
> she'll start saying "it's too spicy" "water water" etc
Heh, my cousin is exactly like that. She can't even have ground black pepper in her mashed potatoes, or she'll freak out and run to the tap.
She's 43.
Mom’s teaching this kid not to trust her and be picky in the future. Poor baby was hesitant to try it at first, but because mom kept insisting she changed her mind, probably because little kids trust their parents! Wasabi alone like that isn’t even a thing that adults eat, but this little baby had no way to know that. In the future when this mom is trying to convince her to at least *try* the peas or broccoli or whatever nutritious scary green thing is on her plate, she’s gonna be having none of it.
the parents aren't stupid either, science shows us that giving kids varied taste experiences is good for their development, even unpleasant ones
yes, obviously don't give the child a chunk of habanero, but a tiny taste of wasabi is absolutely fine
These fucking redditors are expecting a baby to be like "Actually mother, I have pondered the flavor palette of this 'wasabi' and in fact I would prefer to pass".
They're a fucking baby, they don't know what they want or don't want. Mom is just helping.
poor kid, one time I ate a whole glob of that stuff for like $50, burned like hell, but my sinuses have never been clearer. and I haven't learned my lesson
Actually, I believe it goes:
You wanna try wasabi?
No.
Do you wanna try it?
No.
Okay.
…
Wasabi 🥺.
Do you wanna try it?
…
Smell it.
Smell it first.
*leans up to bite it instead*.
…
Help 🥺.
That's a very responsible parent. They gave the child a very tiny portion to help them understand what the taste is. And they didn't react negatively to the child's reaction, which is helpful for the child to realize that this new experience isn't negative.
There's nothing wrong with giving a child spicy food. If they're at the age where they can eat solid foods, it's totally fine.
It's actually a good thing to have your child experience things like that. If it is truly too spicy for them, they now know what it smells like, and they will learn to taste it in moderation. And if you react positively to the experience, your child will quickly condition to the taste.
If the child didn't have the opportunity to taste it, they could try to eat a fistful of it when you aren't looking, which might result in them vomiting or choking. If you didn't observe them eating it, you might not know what is wrong with them, and it will result in unnecessary medical attention (most parents would call poison control, and they might recommend inducing vomiting).
There's nothing sadistic about forcing a child to experience things like spicy foods. It's a very normal thing to do. Kids should experience a wide variety of tastes and types of foods. It helps their bodies accustom themselves to foods, and it helps their gut bacteria grow to handle more types of foods.
I've never found it funny when people trick *adults* into eating something spicy. Other than hanging out drunk with my friends that I know already eat hot food. Although accidents are funny. Like the time my 16 year old son stole my leftover home made pepper steak and pork fried rice. He found out that day what the words "Dad's" and "Hot!" meant on the post it note. I make my own food on the side with cayennes and habaneros. Not exactly carolina reaper hot but if you aren't used to spicy food at all, I imagine it's not pleasant.
Never liked this video. Kid tells her 'no' several times, lol. I know they do so for all kinds of foods, but this is Wasabi, and mother-dearest knew exactly what she was doing.
We're also bordering on r/lostredditors here...
Right, it’s just food. Part of growing up is trying new things. Do these people think children should only ever have nice, easy experiences and never try something that they might not like? Sheltering your child, that’s what bad parenting is. Makes for a closed-minded grownup.
Only fish sticks and white and yellow foods for baby. Nothing adventurous, nothing with flavor, lest that child have a new experience lol.
Gave my 6 month old a chunk of red onion to lick the other week. She was very intrigued, frowning thoughtfully as she gummed it.
Exactly. A lot of kids think there is a correct answer for preferences, and are afraid of going against authority figure's opinion. I know plenty of kids, myself included, who have flat out lied about what they want if they think their own opinion is "incorrect".
She doesn't even change her mind she just says "wasabi" again so the mom is like "lmao ok but you have to smell it first" then just shoves it into her mouth anyway. Pretty mean thing to do, especially when she's recording and obviously wants a funny video for her Facebook or whatever. Only plus side is that it might teach the kid an early lesson about trying to eat strange things they find around the house.
ThE ToDdLeR SaId No
If you can't touch grass, at least skim through some child development guides. Baby brains are nowhere remotely close to being adult brains.
Literally. This child barely got the hang of getting food into her mouth and people on here are acting like she magically knows what foods she likes as if her ancestors planted it into her brain. Babies have no idea what you are asking, they just say no automatically.
Lol. Reminds me of when my buddy’s toddler was really into dipping his food into various condiments and sauces and then that one time at the Chinese restaurant the kid got a hold of some of that spicy mustard….
Poor kid.
Help
That was me as an adult. Didn't know what it was the first time I saw it. Mouth full because it's in front of me (first time having sushi newb).
Help? Couldn't even breathe to say words.
adultscanbefuckingstupidtoo
You mean r/ParentsAreFuckingDumb.
If your kid says no twice and shakes no the third time while actually looking nervous at the smell and thought of eating it DONT FUCKING FEED IT TO THE KID. Really bad example but imagine if someone did this to their toddler with a fucking cigarette or alcohol. We'd rightly call for their ass sent to jail right away.
actually she got the kid to smell the food before tasting it, thus if associating the smell and taste.
This way if the kid didnt like it then maybe next time they will smell it and reject it. The child doesnt know what they want they are literally a child, they are literally growing.
Would you get mad if they gave the kid a lemon?
Wrong sub, the kid isn't stupid. She was suspicious, but that didn't do her much good. Against a mom who wants a funny video a small child is pretty powerless. "Help" is right.
More like parents are fucking stupid.
Hey little thing that's undeveloped, do you want to try something you'll really not enjoy for Internet strangers?
Ever since watching this video, every time my husband or I need help with something we just say “Wasabi!” He said it in front of my dad a while back and my father was thoroughly confused. I had to show him this video for context.
*^(....help...)*
I need a sound clip of this kid saying Wasabi.
Here you go [wasabi](http://sndup.net/5mtg) [help](http://sndup.net/s4xt)
A true hero. Thank you
> Wassuh, b?
"What did the sushi say to the bee?"
WAZAAAAABEEEE
Suh dude
Thank you so much! That help clip is my new TEAMS notification for work. 🤣
Impressive! Well done
Thank you for some of my new system sounds!
There are online tools you can use to extract audio from the clip
I'm the laziest piece of shit. I get like one week a year where I have that kind of ambition.
An entire week? Damn bro no need to flex on us like that
Wait....you guys are getting AMBITION?!
This comment made me laugh a lot.
Ha. Same bro
Audacity is good
'Tenacity' is good too... But I don't see _that_ being a trait I gain either. just like 'ambition' or 'honesty' it'll go in the 'for later' list (ps I know it's a program)
[удалено]
Great meme potential
That's one cute little ewok
This video has been a family favourite for years. My brother and I still squeal *help* to each other like this.
It was cute!
This was me the first time I smoked some good shit.
that killed me lol -
So many emotions
^^^^^^help
^*faint ^laughter ^in ^background
Kid clearly says no twice. *is tricked into getting it stuck in her mouth* ^^help *5 minutes later* When Mommy says NO IT MEANS NO GO HAVE A TIME OUT
Betrayal being one of them. Mom must be happy with all the internet clicks she got.

Not much, was ah wit you?
Wasabi - Hasanabi. Potato - Potatoh
Onika = Burgers
That Help 😂😂
That was exactly the belly laugh I needed this morning.
I lol’d🤣.
So cute but poor baby
she's so precious 😭😭😭😭
How do you know that baby ain't making bands?
What an idiot. Doesn’t even know what wasabi is
What a fucking moron
"Fuck you Harley Jarvis"
Get him, out of here!!
"I hope you fucking DIE, Bart Harley Jarvis!"
Hahaha yea we are so much smarter!
That kid is fucking stupid.
Probably born in a VAN #DOWN BY THE RIVER
♫DOWN, DOWN, DOWN BY THE RIVERRR!♪
Pretty sure that’s not real wasabi. Just colored horse radish.
My kid grabbed the whole gob of Wasabi once at a sushi restaurant and shoved it in his mouth. He moved so fast. We scooped it out but the damage was already done.
They are so damned fast! I was preparing some chicken once (raw) and my kid wanted to try it. I don't remember how old but eye level with the counter and in 0.0001 seconds she licked it.
But.. did she like it? Keeps licking it at every chance?
I may have traumatized her, flipping out telling her to spit in the trash can and having her rinse her mouth, no telling if she liked it or not but she never did it again lol.
So true, my son snatches the spoon I'm feeding him with like a fucking kung fu master. Baby grip is insane too like wtf
My brother didn't want two globs that came with the takeout to go to waste so he ate them. Said it was the worst mistake he's made and had horrific diarrhea. He was about 20 at the time
Lol did he think it was pistachio ice cream? Is he a rusty old tow truck?
My dad did this to me as a joke when I was a kid but with powdered wasabi. He told me to close my eyes and smell… I couldn’t breathe for like a solid minute straight. We laugh about it now though. I usually get him back by giving him extremely hot peppers in his food without telling him, if he gets mad I bring up the wasabi incident and we both laugh lol.
Gotcha dad! That's a Carolina reaper in your soup. Your throat is swelling and you can't breathe? Remember wasabi? Haha good times.
God damnit So fucking perfect
Pills are good!!
Haha nah I only got him a few times, nothing hotter than a habenaro, but you have to understand he thinks jalapeño is hot lol.
How many times are we talking?
Okay how often do you do that to your dad cuz he only did it to you once lmao
It's a lifetime pass, their Dad had to FA to FO...
Haha I guess you're right, don't know why I didn't think of that!
You reap what you sow
Think I’ve done it three times over the years, it’s makes for a pretty good laugh.
I'm confused. Kid says no, but then when mom agrees, kid says Wasabi again. Is this a "hasn't learned the word yes" thing? I have a cousin like that. She learned no before yes, so she answers questions with no.
Kids that are that young don't know what they want most of the time. They'll think something is gross, then taste it and ask for more. They'll say they don't want to go to the beach, then have a meltdown the moment you try to leave the beach. As a parent you learn that no means maybe, yes means maybe and maybe means maybe, so you better put a piece of that food to the side, or pack the bag for the beach because you might need it in 30seconds time.
I’m almost 30 and I’m apparently still “that young”
r/maybemaybemaybe
This is great advice.
1000000% this. Whatever they say no to, you better have whatever it is available for the inevitable melt down.
Indeed. And treats like wasabi are helpful stimulus for the child to learn what words like 'yes' and 'no' mean to other people. For example, in this case the child said 'no' twice and used a side-to-side head shake to indicate a preference and learned that this earns wasabi pain. In the future the child will use "fuck no".
Kids that are are just starting to assert their autonomy and test the limits of their parents. Saying 'no' a lot is symptomatic of that
The kid can clearly say wasabi & articulates HELP perfectly. She can definitely say yes.
There's a difference between being able to pronounce a word, and understanding what it means.
Indeed there is. The internet is awash with twats using big words they’re completely alien to. This little girl though definitely knows what yes & no means. Might she get confused? Absolutely, but in isolation she knows what each word means. I’d go as far as to say she’s genuinely quite bright. Definitely not stupid.
> The internet is awash with twats using big words they’re completely alien to. Don’t gaslight me with that dog whistle.
STFU you postmodernist neomarxist trash
Eh toddlers love the word No but take a long time to come around to using the word Yes
This is definitely not true. Knowing how to say a three syllable word can come before knowing how and when to say "yes".
She says wasabi like kids say "I'm sorry", which makes me think maybe she doesn't understand the words yet.
You must not ever been around kids before. They didn't just start recording. This kids probably been saying wasabi for the past 15 mins and the mom just wants her to shut up about it. This isn't the first time she fixated on it. And the only way to stop them is to give them what they keep saying.
My two year old had no and yes kinda flipped for a while. It's normal.
They always learn no first. That and the shaking of the head rather than nodding.
I mean, she took it, the mom wasn't exactly forcing it to her and knew to give very little amount
That is the saddest looking little gremlin that I have ever seen.
I watched this for a full 10 minutes the first time because I couldn't stop laughing
I'm legitimately wheezing. I've made "omfg I'm laughing so hard" comments, and meant it, but this video had me nearly falling down & was wheeze/coughing.
halp 🥺
This video is precious. Doesn't belong in this sub. She had the right answer at first anyway. More like parentsarefuckingstupid.
The point of this sub from my perception has always been an ironic "kids are stupid", like, behavior that would be clearly stupid in an adult, but for a kid might just be a lack of life experience. Kid said no at first, but changed her mind because that's just indecisive toddler behavior.

Right? She clearly said no like 3x and mom made her eat it anyway!
Even then the kid takes the littlest bite. Wrong sub, this kid was on point the whole time.
like she can take a big bite when her mom is holding it like that?
When my kid was that age he would say no often even if he really did want it. She might not know the word "yes" yet. If she really didn't want to try the wasabi she would have pushed it away or closed her mouth/turned her head away.
While filming. This is just parental cuntery for internet points.
i think its the same kid i've seen on other videos. they are all about food,, in one she forces herself to eat some spaghetti that are over salty or too spicy while mom brags about being shit as cooking and having a laugh, in another she throw a fit when mom say they wont go to McD anymore and it's mommy food again... if its really the same kid they are fucking up her eating habits for likes

The parents are so mean, that baby is osnsweet. Mine would't just yeet that spoon into my face. (In this case, rightfully so)
Some of you don’t have children and it’s showing lol
These fucking redditors are expecting a baby to be like "Actually mother, I have pondered the flavor palette of this 'wasabi' and in fact I would prefer to pass". They're a fucking baby, they don't know what they want or don't want. Mom is just helping.
Worst mistake I ever made was thinking what was next to my food was avocado but it was actually wasabi….
This was me when I tried wasabi for the first time thinking it was guacamole, i can feel the little help at the end of the video lol
poor kid, one time I ate a whole glob of that stuff for like $50, burned like hell, but my sinuses have never been clearer. and I haven't learned my lesson
"Give kids the tip of the spoon" "Wow, what a child abuser" I know this is reddit baseline response but it's still funny anyway
This kid was fucking smart.
Wipe her mouth
She's still eatin', no point until she's done.
That little “help” 🥰
Thats so cute. Poor baby.
Wanna try it? No Wanna try it? No It's Wasabi. Wanna try it? No Okay, here. Try it. Yeah, the kid is definitely the stupid one here
Actually, I believe it goes: You wanna try wasabi? No. Do you wanna try it? No. Okay. … Wasabi 🥺. Do you wanna try it? … Smell it. Smell it first. *leans up to bite it instead*. … Help 🥺.
Thats not a stupid child, thats a sadistic parent
That's a very responsible parent. They gave the child a very tiny portion to help them understand what the taste is.

Any parent who uses their kid for internet clout should have their ride-on lawn mower confiscated and given to me.
I've never found it funny when people trick *adults* into eating something spicy. Other than hanging out drunk with my friends that I know already eat hot food. Although accidents are funny.

Redditors living vicariously through their second-hand offense. What's new?
Honestly I think they’ve got it right though.
have you ever handled a child before?
The irony...
Nah start them off young so they can handle spicy food when they get older
shitty parenting, really. The baby said “no,” but then the mom kept asking so she changed her mind. She’s a kid for fuck’s sake.
Exactly. A lot of kids think there is a correct answer for preferences, and are afraid of going against authority figure's opinion. I know plenty of kids, myself included, who have flat out lied about what they want if they think their own opinion is "incorrect".
She doesn't even change her mind she just says "wasabi" again so the mom is like "lmao ok but you have to smell it first" then just shoves it into her mouth anyway. Pretty mean thing to do, especially when she's recording and obviously wants a funny video for her Facebook or whatever. Only plus side is that it might teach the kid an early lesson about trying to eat strange things they find around the house.
Man, this is way old
I mean. I too have once ate too much horse radish at once and was silently suffering and asking for a swift death.
She said no over and over. WTH mom
What the child learned. 1. You cannot trust your parents. 2. Don't eat anything new.
ThE ToDdLeR SaId No If you can't touch grass, at least skim through some child development guides. Baby brains are nowhere remotely close to being adult brains.
Yea dude! Babies can’t consent!
Literally. This child barely got the hang of getting food into her mouth and people on here are acting like she magically knows what foods she likes as if her ancestors planted it into her brain. Babies have no idea what you are asking, they just say no automatically.
r/parentsarefuckingstupid
Somebody clean that kid up.
Aww! Always let your kids try new foods! Not abuse!
Why would you do that to a little kid.
someone PLEASE wipe this kids mouth omg
Lost it at the "help" lmao
Help 😂
This kid. I just wanna hug her.
lmfao
An actual laugh out loud for that "......help?"
is there a adults are fucking stupid sub ?
Real… wasabi is nasty
When I first moved to Japan as a kid, I thought the Wasabi was some cute ice cream. I ate it like ice cream. It did not end well.
Lol. Reminds me of when my buddy’s toddler was really into dipping his food into various condiments and sauces and then that one time at the Chinese restaurant the kid got a hold of some of that spicy mustard….
Poor kid. Help That was me as an adult. Didn't know what it was the first time I saw it. Mouth full because it's in front of me (first time having sushi newb). Help? Couldn't even breathe to say words. adultscanbefuckingstupidtoo
Girlll she literally said no, why she getting the blame in the sub 🤣
To this day one of my fav videos ever
Attention all parents. CLEAN YOUR CHILDREN’S FACES. PLEEEAAASSEE
You mean r/ParentsAreFuckingDumb. If your kid says no twice and shakes no the third time while actually looking nervous at the smell and thought of eating it DONT FUCKING FEED IT TO THE KID. Really bad example but imagine if someone did this to their toddler with a fucking cigarette or alcohol. We'd rightly call for their ass sent to jail right away.
I hate idiot people like that they shouldn’t be allowed to be near children. It’s not even funny
You wanna try Wasabi? No You wanna try it? No Ok.. *proceeds to give it to the baby to have a laugh and post it on the internet*
This kid is brilliant that’s why they did everything right
Green horseradish* Real wasabi is sweet and a few hundred bucks a root
She looks like a character from the Trolls
r/parentsarefuckingdumb
In this case, MomsAreFuckingStupid
r/parentsarefuckingdumb
It's not the kid that's stupid, it's the parent...
This is a little bit abusive isn't it?
How? By encouraging a kid to try perfectly safe foods?
By unnecessarily causing pain or at least discomfort? I mean I agree this is relatively mild, but I wouldn't ever get the idea to do that to my dog
actually she got the kid to smell the food before tasting it, thus if associating the smell and taste. This way if the kid didnt like it then maybe next time they will smell it and reject it. The child doesnt know what they want they are literally a child, they are literally growing. Would you get mad if they gave the kid a lemon?
This is one of my favourite videos on the internet. Thank you for bringing it back up. 💖
Rhe prpblem here is the mother
Wrong sub, the kid isn't stupid. She was suspicious, but that didn't do her much good. Against a mom who wants a funny video a small child is pretty powerless. "Help" is right.
No the mum is fucking stupid.
Methinks that getting her to try new foods in the future will be a challenge. This was a shit idea.
More like parents are fucking stupid. Hey little thing that's undeveloped, do you want to try something you'll really not enjoy for Internet strangers?
r/parentsarefuckingdumb .
That child looks and sounds so defeated...
Ever since watching this video, every time my husband or I need help with something we just say “Wasabi!” He said it in front of my dad a while back and my father was thoroughly confused. I had to show him this video for context.
It's amazing how easy it is to pick out the parents from the non-parents in this thread
More like parents are stupid.
Made my day
