It was your fault the moment you became self aware of the situation and began to realize change was needed. The fact you never did anything, even now, to become more independent shows that this is your fault. I'm not trying to be a dick, but we need to have personal responsibility for our actions. We can blame others for so long, but when the opportunity comes for us to control our paths, we need to take action.
Same boat here but I pretty much do everything around the house because otherwise my day is so dull. So I mow the lawn, clean up the house that sort of thing.
Get a job anywhere, move into the cheapest nice appartment you can find, save money to study or go out and have a normie dead-end life.
If you don't spend hundreds of dollars a month on weed, alcohol, brainwash subscriptions, driving fines and expensive new cars and phones (as normies do), minimum wage is more than enough to live and save 30%.
Also, literally nobody gives a frick about you being a loser at a min wage joint. Everyone there is a loser too just like you and makes the exact same money, even the managers.
Took me 28 years to realize it was that easy.
Honestly it's borderline impossible without breaking the law. I had a part time retail management job that earned me decent money and lived in a basement studio on a street with a homeless shelter, and left my car untaxed and uninsured at my mum's house, and I still only made just enough to pay rent and tax. I couldn't get a full time contract because my employer explicitly said I'm more valuable part time (i.e they don't want to pay me full time) and other employers didn't want me because part time experience isn't apparently good enough, and because I already had management experience I didn't qualify for their training programme. My spending money had to come from selling weed and deliveroo. Rent and ~~*council tax*~~ took up 80% of my take home pay and that was with a 25% single occupancy tax discount. It took me almost two years to get out of that trap, and I wish I moved back home sooner so I'd actually have savings instead of wasting my money on the fricking government.
I'm now earning less than I did back then, but I'm keeping all of it.
probably need to take out some loans and go to community college because unlike the other delusional anons replying to you, you will get very sick and tired of working meaningless manual labor jobs by the time youre 25, that is if you dont already develop back problems by then

I had to move back in when covid haplened as i losy my job. Its a walkout basement/apartment so i have my own space and pay them $1000/m. Mybold apartnent i was renting from 2015-2020 went from $900/m to $1600. Hoe am i dupposed to afford that?
My dad beat me as his main form of punishment...even when I didn't do anything wrong. That's the most I remember about him during my childhood. I don't remember spending time with him otherwise. He was obsessed with politics as his only hobby. I hold a lot of resentment towards him now.
If he was sorry, I could find it in myself to forgive him. But he acts like he did nothing wrong, and then tries to turn it back onto me and starts listing my faults. Im pretty sure he's a textbook narcissist. He is still obsessed with politics and listens to talk radio some 12 hours a day. I look at him with contempt and pity. I actually recently cut off all my interactions with politics because I was spending so much time on it, and I don't want to end up like him.
>If he was sorry, I could find it in myself to forgive him. But he acts like he did nothing wrong, and then tries to turn it back onto me and starts listing my faults.
Same with me. My dad refuses to change anything about himself, despite how much I have changed. When I've confronted him on unfair treatment of me in the past, he doesn't apologize & tells me that I was totally in the wrong. And that's if he doesn't pull his "I don't remember" shtick. Oh, yeah, my dad has a superpower where he can give himself amnesia & forget his memories of his abusive bipolar episodes.
When he dies of old age or one of his illnesses, I'm worried that I will be indifferent, at best, or dedicate my eulogy to shit-talking him, at worst.
Can I ask what kind of politics your dad is into? Mine is a complete MSM liberal sheep who thinks Trump is literally Hitler & Satan's gay lovechild & believes anything that CNN & Trevor Noah says. I don't even tell him who I vote for, because even before 2016, he does this "you wasted your vote, but that's okay" shit.
>TDS dad
Jej, my mother called me out to the porch where she was smoking, drinking box wine, and ceying and she demanded to know whether I'd voted for Trump or not.
My father is a Welsh immigrant, so it's kind of bizarre how he's obsessed with American politics. I've had to weasel my way out of political discussions these past few years, one time telling him that I'd like to keep my beliefs private. Back in 2016, he asked me who I was voting for, & I told him that I didn't know (I voted for Jill Stein in 2016, then I was redpilled to hell & back by how evil the Dems & MSM were, so I voted for Trump in 2020).
He literally shouted "BUT You HAve to VOTE against tRUUUUUMPP!!!" (yes, that's really how he said it). I then told him that I can vote whoever I want to, & he caved. I feel like he wants be to be his proxy voter because he's an immigrant & I'm a citizen.
In my defense, I was disillusioned with the big two parties at the time, Republicans were still filled with neocons who wanted endless oil wars. Also, I didn't know the Green Party was full of open border socialist bullshit, I just wanted pro-environment policies. Despite being a full MAGA Republican, now, I am still a tree hugger at heart. Mainly, though, it was a protest vote against the two party system.
Also, I was very late to the Trump Train. I thought all the Kekistan shit was extremely cringe, but I became more "radicalized" to the Right after all the shit that Antifa & BLM did.
I voted for Stein in 2016 too, got redpilled shortly after. It's my darkest secret and I have legit never told anyone except the airheaded sorority girl I was dating at the time (she didn't know who Jill Stein was).
I voted for gilf Stein in 2012 because I see president as a chiefly martial position and both Romney and Obama were slavering after war.
Then Trump in 2016, and I was almost assblasted enough to doodle a little wiener in the write-in section in 2020 because of forays into Syria but I ended up voting Trump again.
there are two sides to every story, we have no idea what anon did. and whos more likely to be reliable, the adult with a family, or the fricking child? dont be so quick to side with him

i dont know the extent of what your dad did, but its weird to me that you seem to fixate on wanting him to apologize, or at least recognize his faults. my dad did a lot of dumb shit to me growing up, and i dont give a frick what he thinks, he will always be wrong. no point in even bringing it up.
>butthurt principal calls your son a gang member and will be executed one day >Goofy is such a moron he believes the little homosexual
Nah, Goofy was a c**t tbh
Is it on Disney+ and people are rediscovering it? I think Disney tends to ignore it since it wasn't made by the main animation studio so it was forgotten by many.
I've tried, but he's an emotionally & verbally abusive butthole who has bipolar mood swings with little to no provocation. I live with him (would move out, if I could afford it), but we're like a loveless married couple who won't get divorced for the sake of the kids.
We get along most of the time, but there's too much between us, & a lot of shitty things he's done to me that I can't forgive him, for.
>we're like a loveless married couple who won't get divorced for the sake of the kids
actually its nothing like that, you are the kid who wont leave in this scenario. its pretty cut and dry lmao
My dad was 39 when I was born. I remember regularly asking him to do activities, usually sports, and he would always tell me to go find friends to do it with instead of asking him. Most of my childhood memories of him were him always being angry, yelling, sometimes hitting me, a few times hit my mother. Mom always celebrated when he would go on business trips so she would get peace from him. Never taught me any life skills at all.
I'm 30 and still live at home, a completely worthless loser, and barely even speak to him and have been like this for years. He clearly is despondent over what a loser I ended up being and resents me
oh yeah, besides finances my dad is definitely a huge loser. never seen him have a friend (although part of this can probably be attributed to me because i think parents are supposed to be friends with their childrens' friends) and he has no hobbies. he "retired' then basically went right back to work as an independent consultant/contractor working and traveling nearly as much as he did working full time probably because he would have literally nothing to do otherwise.
i left for 4 years for college and nothing really changed
Similar to me without the beatings. I was always there for him and keen to spend time with him but he'd always be an butthole and never give anything back. Unironically the opposite of the usual dad son relationship trope.
>Most of my childhood memories of him were him always being angry, yelling, sometimes hitting me, a few times hit my mother.
Yep. Hit my mother maybe once, as far as I know, the night they got separated. Hit my sister a few times, too, but that fricking c**t treats him like the sweet little old man he wants people to think he is.
My sister is also a toxic part of my life. Thankfully, she lives on the west coast, me on the east. We only talk on birthdays & Christmas.
>Mom always celebrated when he would go on business trips so she would get peace from him.
Me when my dad leaves to visit his girlfriend on the other side of the country.
>Never taught me any life skills at all.
My dad has taught me things, but he doesn't approve of me standing up for myself. He thinks that I should always take abuse from other people & acts disappointed if I so much as use curse words & give them the middle finger in response. He is a """""pacifist""""", you see.
My mom was the horrible parents.
Alcoholic, depressive emotionnally abusive to her husband and childre.
I still hate her.
didn't want children by fear of becoming a shitstain parent just like her.
This is just the bane of your parents having you old. I just hope you realize your mother was wrong for demonizing your father, you turned out depressed no better than him.
Honestly, this is the first time in the history of the world that due to advancements of medicine, the older population will not fricking die and concede the world to the youth. This is whats causing so much strain and strife in the world right now. Look at old people. They run everything, but can barely drive a car. Its absolute insanity. Our president is on his death bed but running our country. Old people need to die. They need to be removed from society. More resources for us, and actual competent people can run society. Frick them all.
i dont think its as simple as daddy not loving me for how i ended up here. probably his and my mom's personalities above all else. very little affection in my household growing up. in fact most of my childhood my dad threatened with moving out//divorce and lived in guest bedrom for a few years but never left
Dad slapped me around a bit and yelled constantly, but that's just because he's a fricking sperg. I still love the silly bastard all the same. It's much better being his son as an adult and being able to sit around and drink with him.
Most kids need a little slapping around. Mine never touched me but my mom sure as shit did. Good to see at least one other person has a good relationship with their dad. I pitty people who can't talk to their dad about real shit and get a "I'm proud of you son" when you leave
>I'm proud of you son
He's autistic and was born in the 50's, he may have mumbled something vaguely resembling this when I got married, but he's pretty mum on the day-to-day.
>It's your parents fault your a failure goy >Definitely not decades of market manipulation and endless wars for no real purpose other than to flex the arm of the military
Talk to your dad's anon. Ignore their bullshit and just tell them you love them. Apologize for missing father's day. Worst case scenario your old man gets in a tissy and you can have a laugh
Ah yes, some vague and nebulous over-arching global problem is what's the real culprit as to why anon's personal relationship with his family ids in trouble.
its not that he didnt love me, its that his generation didnt teach him to be honest with himself and his feelings, and my emotional honesty makes him uncomfortable, da
Now that I think about it, I'm 26 years old and I've never heard my Dad say he loves me, not once, hell last time I got a hug from him was when I was 6.
I look back and realize my dad was awesome and made a great effort. He definitely didn't give me enough life skills, but that was more due to limited time with him after the divorce. We have a solid relationship even if high-school was rocky.
I'm in the same boat as Nathan. My dad is frickin awesome.
Honestly they should have just sucked and fricked each other or maybe 4some with Pete, or whatever the frick Max's dog boy friend was called, and his dad
>only child so already pre-disposed to be autistic >mother in mid 30s, dad late 30s when i was born, strike two >father was narcissistic asocial butthole, strike three >only family was on dad's side and only see them at most once a year so don't have a good relationship with extended family either, strike four
It's pretty unlikely I will ever have kids. It's honestly difficult for me to imagine having kids, or giving a shit about them if they existed. If the mom could take care of them, I would stay out of their lives completely except child support.
Feels weird to talk about it and realize I'm the extreme minority and even have 2 kids of my own. The other way of looking at it is some of thes angsty shits are probably young enough to be my kids
>Dad likes betting and Aus football >I lose interest in watching Aus football at a young age because our team fricking sucked for years >I stop playing it to do umpiring instead as I was pretty shit, and stopped umpiring after about 2 or 3 years. >Along the way noticed Dad and I only spoke in relation to football, so I stopped engaging with football just to see what would happen >Today we have a non-existent relationship
He's not a bad guy, and he got screwed by his generation not being emotionally honest and his own dad apparently talking more AFTER he got a stroke, but yeah we just don't do anything together unless it's his specific interests. One time Essendon (a team down here) bought an Esports team for LoL and showed me the article like "look anon video games", and another time I invited him to play Portal 2 co-op and he just didn't care. I'm a little sad/bitter about it, which is why I'm blogposting now, I don't hate him but we don't try to connect anymore.
>I invited him to play Portal 2 co-op and he just didn't care
Not surprised, Portal 2 is a trash game, the beginning of the end for Valve.
Should have played some Rainbow 6
My dad died when I was 12, he was sick and he was going to the hospital and the last thing I said to him was that he should not forget his underwear, and he died 3 days later. I have felt like such a shit head because those were the last words I spoke to my dad, but I loved him very dearly. I am now 33.
The man was probably thinking about it in his final hours and lamented his weak body wouldn't be around for you. Don't be so hard on yourself I would get a laugh if my daughter said that to me
>that kid who dreamed of performing Power Line in front of the entire school, students cheering and going wild, his crush finally noticing him and going out with him after
that kid was me
Yes. We used to get drunk together, he was basically bro tier, once I got older. Then one day he just dropped dead. Not a bad way to go, lucky bastard.
People here will NOT believe me and instead go into cope-mode, but here it is: People go to eternal hellfire when they die. Jesus is real, and John 3:16-19 tells us clearly that those who don't believe are CONDEMNED ALREADY and on their way to eternal hellfire by default.
You must warn your older parents and give them a bible, sadly tv-shows about bullshit is more important to old people than God's holy words and their eternal souls.
this is a bullshit response, and I say that as a Christian. You've failed to listen to Peter:
>but in your hearts honor Christ the Lord as holy, always being prepared to make a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason for the hope that is in you; yet do it with gentleness and respect,
Personal supernatural experience with Jesus Christ where I was forced to kneel before him and my hands came together like a prayer, as if held together by chains. This happened after calling out to God in my time of darkness, and it all ligned up with scripture
Romans 10:13
King James Version >13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
There is only one who has the authority to make you kneel and that is Jesus. Not even satan could force eve to eat the apple or shove it down her throat, he had to trick her to not transgress against her free will.
Only Jesus has the authority to force people to kneel before him, see Romans 14:11
>This happened after calling out to God in my time of darkness, and it all ligned up with scripture
Let me guess, you were some kind of hedonist, right?
>I was forced to kneel before him and my hands came together like a prayer, as if held together by chains
Textbook demonic encounter.
Christ doesn't go for that type of razzle-dazzle.
>I was forced to kneel before him and my hands came together like a prayer, as if held together by chains
Textbook demonic encounter.
Christ doesn't go for that type of razzle-dazzle.
>no one can say, “Jesus is Lord,” except by the Holy Spirit.
>John 3:16-19 tells us clearly a parcel of israeli lies
The ENTIRE new testament is a scam put together by Saul of Tarsus to pull the White man down to the gutter and obscure the true teachings of Christ.
If Goofy was an actually good father Max would likely have gone on the trip with him despite the concert. Boomer dad's are almost an entire generation of failures as fathers. They ignore their kids during the bonding years then suddenly when they're teens and showing signs of moving on with their own lives and no attachments these rapidly approaching senior age boomers try to force family activities on their teenaged kids who have no real connection to them besides the burden of family.
happened to me too fren. i did everything in my power to get him back and now we are all living together. bridge can be rebuild my friend, believe in yourself
my dad and i went shooting together regularly. i met some new shooting friends and told him i was meeting them for a range day. he wanted to go and i told him we were going in the afternoon, knowing due to his work schedule he wouldnt be able to make it. i wanted to shoot with my new friends without him.
very shortly after, he was diagnosed with late stage cancer and died soon after that.
he was a good dad but i wasnt a good son. i feel like ive said this a lot to him but i'm sorry, dad.
i think so too. when he got sick, we did at home hospice care. one day i told him "i wish we got to go shooting one more time" and he had a look on his face. i could type out multiple paragraphs explaining what this look meant but its basically what you wrote.
I have about three good memories of my dad and maybe seven bad ones. A road trip would have been more time spent together in a week than we ever actually did in 15 years. He didn't really like me I guess, lol.
My dad I never had shared hobbies or interests. He was and still is very sporty and athletic guy and I am a shut in introvert nerd that dislikes sports and just exercising in general.
I respect him and help him out when he asks for me to do stuff like come and aid at maintenance of our family's summer place, but I can't say that we have much if anything in common and I kinda feel that he is ashamed or resentful of me for being such a loser.
How old are you? I had a similar situation growing up. After school I got a decent job and take care of myself. There's a mutual respect over that as there's a few cousins who were kind of a disaster.
You might well age into what you are looking for.
Yeah, kinda. My dad grew up in a farm and is essentially a self made man on whom I owe the quality of life I grew up with. I feel that I will forever be in his shadow.
Several years ago we went hiking for 7 hours and it was great. Since then we haven't spent time for the sake of hanging out, it's mostly work we do together. Yesterday he called, said my little sister is doing fine, asked me when I was coming back, complained about the dry weather and failing crops, I complained about this year's uncertainty about everything, and we concluded that's life. Small talk but it felt good.
My dad was pretty busy when I grew up but I also only saw him mostly on weekends or some other irregular interval I don't remember. He was always very loving, though, and before I joined the military I had breakfast with him every sunday. Even though he is a bit too center left and judgy with me when we talk frequently on the phone he always tells me he is proud of me and loves me.
Keep in mind his other two children are worthless garbage but by all accounts he shows them the same love even though I'm the only somewhat successful/stable one
My dad is homeless by choice. He says he’s happy and refuses to change. I don’t spend time with him any more even though it would be easy. He’s a few blocks away
My butthole dad did this. My friend had wrestlemania tickets, and he insisted we go fishing like we can literally go the week after like motherfricker the lake isn't going anywhere.
Well mine was an absent father my whole life, and left our family to be with some tramp and her kid. I see him now and again and we go for a dinner and a drink but I absolutely don't see him as a father. He's a failure and an embarrassment.
No kid really appreciates connection, pal. Its just granted. When they get older and the world puts a little dirt in their eye, they'll appreciate the old man is there and he actually gives a shit.
My dad's gonna be dead in a couple years. He was conscripted in the 80s as a 16 year old to fight for Iraq. He got injured, left the country and had me in his 30s. Never taught me anything or gave me anything to inherit. Sometimes I think I should try to spend time with him, but there's no point. I fricked up, so did he, but he was put into a hard situation.
My dad died last month. I never liked spending time with him anyways, but it's still sad. I feel like he over-helped me in life to the point where I don't feel competent as an adult. On the other hand, if he didn't help me so much, I might be in jail or dead. I still might end up like that.
Is there a reason Goofy couldn't just schedule the trip the week after the concert? His car and kid are going to be around all summer, concerts only stick around for a day or two. With a little patience it feels like both could get their way without any conflict
My dad and me bonded over going to concerts and listening to rock. He's an butthole but he's always been there for me and would let me live with him if I paid rent but insteadi live with my woman. He's a moderate liberal that really thinks conservatives are dumb and that's what I am and we're both financial losers.
I love my father very much, and I know he loves me as well. I've mostly had a very positive, warm, and close relationship with him, but I'm afraid that I'm going to struggle with the legacy he leaves behind for me. For as amazing of a father he's been to me, he's also at times been needlessly and extremely cruel to me in the name of "Toughening" me up. Not to mention, he's rather short-tempered, and at some of the lowest points in our relationship, he's: A.) Thrown me out of our apartment over an argument and let me get rained on until I was soaking wet, B.) Pulled out his gun on me during another argument and physically threatened to attack me with a piano bench, and C.) Once threatened to punch me in the mouth because I misremembered a Bible verse.
These lows sound very abusive, don't they? That's why I think I'm going to struggle a lot with what I deem my Father's legacy to me is when he's gone...
When I was about 9 or 10 and I told my father I hate going to church(Mormon) and he smacked me in the head so hard that it dislodged my eyeball. When I was in high school, he caught me smoking a joint in the backyard and he put the cherry out on my forearm, almost at the bend in my elbow.
The past decade, my dad has been dealing with diabetes and kidney failure. Lots of dialysis these days. I'm sure he would like a kidney donor, and I'd give him one of mine but when the Doctor disqualified me on the grounds of ptsd, it almost gives me a cathartic relief. This butterfly effect we weave. If he had bothered giving me a better childhood, his best possible chance of getting the MOST compatible kidney, wouldn't have been declined because of psychological trauma. Trauma inflicted by him. I often wonder if he blames himself.
My parents want me to visit, but I've unpack a lot of religious trauma as well this summer, and I just don't think I can visit them without absolutely going nuclear on them for devoting their lives to a cult.
My dad is based, he likes kinos, hates liberals and we play Baldur's Gate and similar games together
Sometimes I get impatient and angry when we play because he takes too long or makes some mistake, not being as much of an elite gamer as me. I feel really bad and regretful about it later
I played Dnd with my dad once every two weeks on thursday for 5 years. It was just us two, doing behind the scenes adventures to flesh out his epic 35 year campaign.
I spent thousands of hours with him, but I would do anything to have one more session.
if you are attached to your parents post 30 you got fricking huge issues.
im glad to be away from my clingy mother.
i fricking hate my inlaws and wish they would be gone already.
My uncle lived with my grandmother until he died. I always thought it was weird as frick. Crazier part is he helped some girl he was dating get a house but never moved in with her
>if you are attached to your parents post 30 you got fricking huge issues.
Well not everyone grew up in dysfunctional families. Some people grew up with genuinly decent people around them and you dont throw them by the wayside that easily. If your parents were shit people who beat and berated you all week long, sure I could get why someone would distance themselves from their family, but most people have good families and saying that you shouldnt have an relationship with your parents after an set age is you just projecting your own dysfunctional relationship with your parents onto everyone around you thinking they're crazy for still talking with their mum.
Me and my dad went on a camping trip 6 months before he died of cancer.
The only thing I wish was different was that I was struggling with some personal shit at the time that I wasnt wholy there, but it was a good trip nevertheless.
There was alot of thing me and my dad planned to do, but never followed through on, but you have to let that shit go. There's way too much shit you should have done and you can easily blame yourself for not having the foresight to see that they wouldnt be around 3 years down the road. People dont live with a timelimit on the people around them. It's just not a sustainable way of living so people put off things they could do today, but they also could do further down the road.
My dad died when I was 7.
He used to have seizures because he was diabetic and didn't manage his levels so I lived almost my entire time with him in fear because I was always scared and waiting for him to have another one.
It was the worst feeling bros. I don't hate my dad but I wish he took better care of himself so he'd be around to watch his kids grow up.
Never got meet my dad. My biological loved me enough to not kill me before I was born. Grandma and Grandpa practically raised me so I consider them my parents. (25 and still live with them).
My dad doesn't want to do shit or go anywhere. I wish I had a dad who wanted to take me camping and hunting and fishing and shit. The only thing my dad ever does is blow his money at the casino on slot machines.
I'm definitely in the fatherless category. My parents divorced when I was 3-4 years old (32 now), and after that I can literally count the times I've seen my dad since. Less than 20 times for sure.
He was neglectful, abusive of my half-brother, drank a lot. The only good memories I have of him is watching The Big Lebowski, The Matrix, and The Waterboy. The last one, I saw against my will since he promised me and my sister he was taking us to A Bugs Life.
Right now I'm the most stable from my 4 siblings. The rest having crippling Bipolar, or PTSD disorder from years of drug and violent abuse. My mother was emotionally neglectful, manipulative, and a strong narcissist who was never wrong.
As a result of all that, I'm very withdrawn and never speak to family unless they reach out. I drink, stay mostly to myself, but still wish I could be more emotionally open to others, but instead I hate myself, and deny myself happiness.
>The rest having crippling Bipolar, or PTSD disorder from years of drug and violent abuse.
I can tell you right now that it is borderline personality disorder. If it's diagnosed Bipolar 2 stemming from a abusive upringing, it's borderline 95% of the time.
No, my dad was an butthole and was kicked out by my mum when I was 14, it was the greatest day of my life. I completely ignored him and his attempts to try and reconnect for years but I eventually gave in and started letting him back into my life. He isn't gone and he and I have a better relationship now, it isn't terrific but it's better, he lives in the country town that he grew up in and I live in the city, he comes down every so often to visit me and my siblings, he'll take us out for lunch and shit. He really likes Star Wars and old macho man kino's (Anything starring Arnold, Sylvester, Van Damme, Clint Eastwood, Bruce Lee, people like that), maybe I should watch more of the movies that he likes with him, but I can't be botherd.
My dad is slowly isolating himself from every member of our family. He obsesses over perceived slights and treats his kids and siblings like shit. I was one of the last people left who was still on good terms with him, but I made the shit list for not spending enough time with him when I was in town for a work conference. He didn't write anything I told him down and blamed me for not being around when he wanted. The last good memory I have with him is going to Yellowstone together five years ago. I want my dad back.
My dad's a fricking c**t who is going to die soon because of his ill health caused by his terrible life choices. Frick him, I've been waiting for him to die for years. I don't speak to him anymore, I just want him dead so I can visit my mother in peace.
I've realized that we've missed so many years because he was addicted to playing WoW, every conversation was about things in game (I had stopped playing after the first expansion) and every time we were alone he would be fidgety and sneak off to do things online like the auction house. We had many fights about it that it isn't even funny and I was surprised mom and him didn't divorce because he would be upstairs every evening till 1am, only coming down to eat or to do chores and they would often fight because he spend more time upstairs and had to do everything else at the last minute. This was maybe 10 years of his life maybe longer. He had a heart attack and couldn't game anymore and due to that it was like my dad had changed into a vulnerable old man with the responses of a child. I had about five more years where we bonded because he needed assistance before he passed away from covid. He was never really dad anymore but I cherish those years even though they were hard
When we would be out driving together, my dad used to occasionally "joke" about how he could drive into oncoming traffic or down the cliff or whatever and kill us both, just to try to get a rise out of me and an evil little kick for him.
He even did it once when my son was in the car with us, I think he maybe thought he was thinking it or saying it under his breath, but that was when he died to me. Now he's the guy who lives with my mom who I kind of get along with I guess.
I was a fat gamer as a teen so sure enough when my dad wanted to hangout I’d put him off just to play video games, when he passed away I began to regret every moment I didn’t spend hanging out with him. God what I give just to fishing with him one more time
yeah, i kinda did and still do sometimes, he separated from my mother and then left me shortly after when I was 5 to get a better job somewhere else so he could provide better shit for me
i wish he didn’t, he left me with a mentally unstable mother who loved me very much but just wasn’t emotionally ready to raise someone else and thus between the 2 gave me all sorts of mental and emotional problems that I’m still trying to get over today, I mean, after all I’m here blogposting in Cinemaphile at graveshift hours
he was young, didn’t make the best choices, I’ve forgiven him for most of it i think although I still get mad when he says something wrong about me without knowing me that much but I can deal with it

They really liked The Black Phone.
My dad was a hard bastard, but in retrospect I'm so thankful for him and I do miss him. Everything that I am that I'm proud of is because I came from him. I mean, my parents divorced when I was five, my mom was nuts. My das was emotionally unavailable and quite frankly tried to kill me a few times when I was little (at like 2 and 3 he'd drop me in the deep end of a pool and leave, or drive me to another neighborhood and leave me there to find my own way home) because until he had a paternity test done, he didn't believe I was his.
He was 6'1, built like a football player, blue eyes and blonde hair, mean as frick looking, but also extremely high IQ. He served in the Navy and was a specialized oral surgeon. Was offered to play professional baseball, but didn't think taking the job would be practical. He boasted a hundred women in every port the Naval ship landed and by the end of his life had been married nine times. Kind of racist, but in a peculiar way. I mean one of his wives was Hispanic and one of his wives was Filipino (number 9) but mostly he didn't care for blacks, unless it was a black woman with massive breasts. I remember my mother getting all upset because he liked some black singer with massive breasts and she was like "I thought you hated blacks." and he was like "She's okay though. She can stay." He told me once that through high school and college, he and a group of friends regularly participated in "gaybashing" and made a sport of chasing down and beating the shit out of homosexuals until they left town. He told me this not with shame, but with pride.
I remember bringing home black friends, and it pissing him the everloving frick off, and the kids saying they were terrified of my dad and he was the devil. My mom claimed he hit her, I never saw it. I saw her throw shit and do a lot of crazy stuff and he yelled a lot, but I never once saw him lay a hand on her.
The sign is a subtle joke. The shop is called "Sneed's Feed & Seed", where feed and seed both end in the sound "-eed", thus rhyming with the name of the owner, Sneed. The sign says that the shop was "Formerly Chuck's", implying that the two words beginning with "F" and "S" would have ended with "-uck", rhyming with "Chuck".
But, subverting expectations, when Chuck owned the shop, it was actually called "Chuck's Feed and Seed".
Subverting expectations is the essence of humor.
It's actually a subtle joke. The sign says "Sneed's Feed & Seed" which to the untrained eye, is nothing short of ordinary, but because this is The Simpsons, we know that Matt Groening probably has a couple of tricks up his sleeve. If you divert your eyes just below the large text on the sign, you will notice the delectably insidious subtitle that is "Formerly Chuck's." Now at first glance, this doesn't raise any alarms, but when you read the entire sign as a whole, it say's "Sneed's Feed & Seed, formerly Chuck's" and the message becomes more clear; Here, we are using the classic Hollywood trope of "fill in the blanks with your head," in conjunction with the "rule of rhymes." That is, owner Sneed is in charge of Feed & Seed, because by some miracle of circumstance he just happened to gain ownership of a shop that rhymes with his surname. Chuck, on the other hand, would logically follow this aforementioned "rule of rhymes," and if you allow the juvenile in you to let loose, what are the first words that come to mind? I'll leave the rest of that one up to you! Cheerio!

Frick no
He turned out to be like HIS dad
both were just hardened by the war and then the inner city
I'm more sensitive than them but after living in the city for 15 years, that shit changes you
We never agreed on a single thing so i do not literally care
my dad took me to see this as the first thing we did together after he moved out from the divorce and I felt so dad the whole time while simultaniously feeling guilt because dad was trying to do something nice and i just sat there with tears on my face
>Dad diagnosed with MS 6 years before I was born >Hit his legs so he can't bend his legs or move faster than a walk >Never told me or my sister growing up so we just assumed he didn't want to spend time with us >Always yelling at us, telling us we're useless etc etc
As an adult I don't hate my dad anymore but there's an irrational part of me that gets very angry when I spend more than 30 seconds talking to him, I've gotten much better at not showing any anger now that we actually have conversations, I never spoke more than 10 words at a time to my dad until I was 23 and we've lived together all my life.
Learning more about my Dad's upbringing and stuff that went on in his life helped me understand why he turned out like he did.
>Grandpa put into wheelchair from work accident when Dad was 6 >Beats Dad >Dad gets cheated on and divorced from his first wife, he had 2 kids with her at the time >His father dies >His best friend dies on the job, his body literally landing 15 yards away from him >Grandma is diagnosed with cancer >All this -other than the childhood beatings- happened in a 6 month period when he was 30 >He also gets diagnosed with MS in the same 6 month period after the rest happened
Good thing he met my mother 2 months later or he probably would've roped by now.
My dad was only visited every few weeks to talk to me and my sister for an hour or so. Then he basically stopped coming when I was looser teenager and his second son was born. He got in a huge fight with my teenage sister over her shit talking his new wife in public and haven't spoken with her in 10 years. We started seeing each other only when I was already 18 and our only interaction is hunting at night since. I haven't seen him in daylight for years. It's not healthy but I just can't cut the contact. I think at some point he have just given up on us and his psycho second wife is to blame. Along with the lack of spine.
One day I just up and left the house didn't say a word, wasn't really on speaking terms with my parents at the time and it stayed that way for a couple years they reached out but I just wouldn't talk to them. Then I landed in hospital and they looked after me and I aired my grievances and decided to just let them go I held so much resentment in my heart but they still loved me and all they wanted was for me to be around anymore and I was so self centered that I just wanted to spite them. Looking back on it, I feel like a terrible son for doing that to them I didn't realise how painful it must be for a parent to have their child not want them in their life, after those years when I finally saw my parents again they were older and my dad was not the fit strong man I remember he was losing his sight and walking with less strength. Tomorrow I'm going out with my family for my mom's birthday I'm ashamed to say I didn't even know when my mom's birthday was before this week, I'm gonna try be better to them since they care about me so much.
>Then I landed in hospital and they looked after me
Lol it's always some pathetic BPD shit. Let me guess, suicide attempt? Drug overdose? Also
>I finally saw my parents again they were older and my dad was not the fit strong man I rememnber >it stayed that way for a couple years
2 years isn't that crazy
My dads fricken great. We went fishing last week and saw a bald eagle roosting nearby, so he took his first catfish and left it at the base of the tree as an offering. He was so serious about it, I think he legit thought this eagle would bestow his favor on us for it.
Goofy is kinda in the wrong, considering that he never asked Max why he didn't have time to go to the trip.
Especially after Goofy and Max went to the girls house.
>tfw both brother and sister are so fat they have to wiggle, moan, huff and puff just to stand up from a seated position
I'm really not looking forward to the fact that I'll statistically have to bury every immediate member of my family.
>catholic biker butthole that grew up in peak poverty during 60's detroit >shacked up with my mom after his first marriage at 21 blew up and rode through the storms because he had 5 kids to feed
I appreciate him more now that I'm grown than when I was a child, because shit got fricking rough sometimes. He's still an butthole but I still love him.
Growing up he'd always take random trips to detroit to visit extended family and I'd always ride along because nobody else wanted to go.
A while back, my dad made a joke to my mom about how they were never going to have grandkids. It really showed how he thinks of me. He's always being a passive-aggressive prick.
My dad and I had this routine of watching the simpsons every weekend, it was nice to spend a couple of hours with him carefree. this was until season 8, when they started promoting homosexuality and celebrity horseshit and the laughter stopped. I remember my dad turning off the tv at the episode where homer kisses some homosexual and goes to gay bar or something and him saying "we dont have to watch this garbage son" and we went fishing and playing baseball on the weekends from then on. Im so grateful for that now, that I didn't have to watch the collapse of one of my favorite tv shows. I know the simpsons is still on, but I haven't seen any of it past season 8-9. No nightmares to invade those happy memories
The writing had a fairly liberal bent to it from season 2 onwards.
Neutral to positive portrayals of Smithers being a gay were constantly peppered in, the first that springs to mind is this one from s7, and "He-llo Smi-thers, you're quite good at tur-ning me on" is from s5.
>beer turns you into a troony
There was a period in western history when agriculture and population density outpaced hygiene and germ theory so fermentation was the only method of sterilization they had, kids basically went straight from breast feeding to at least a beer a day, and kept that diet up for life.
It was really shitty weak watery beer, but the entire population of an entire continent drank beer every single day and none of them were trannies, and they'd freak out and burn a troony to death if you sent one back in time.
Reddit's down the street
>Look at me, I'm trying to fit in on my day being on the Cinemaphiles!
So why aren't you leaving?
I’m still on Max’s side. FRICK BABY BOOMERS
Grew up without fathers i see
Yes. 🙁
:() €~~<==8
No, my dad is in my life and he’s a wastoid like you.
>MY generational cohort is the BEST
literal toddler mentality. Intergenerational social groups are vastly superior to any intragenerational ones
they were both correct but neither understood that at the time and pete made me gay
Does me trying to zone out playing wow while he gets shitfaced drunk once again due to his unemployment count as spending time together?
i have lived with my parents for 30 years. they probably fricking hate and resent me.
You should resent them, they raised you poorly
its at the very least half my fault to be honest. probably like 65% my fault.
nah, trust me, it was outside your control, you’re owed easily half. Don’t let them guilt trip you otherwise
Is that what you tell yourself?
It was your fault the moment you became self aware of the situation and began to realize change was needed. The fact you never did anything, even now, to become more independent shows that this is your fault. I'm not trying to be a dick, but we need to have personal responsibility for our actions. We can blame others for so long, but when the opportunity comes for us to control our paths, we need to take action.
exact same as me except the 4 years i lived on my own in college
Same boat here but I pretty much do everything around the house because otherwise my day is so dull. So I mow the lawn, clean up the house that sort of thing.
>probably
he doesn't even know, the poor thing
they haven't kicked you, isn't that evidence, they don't?
I want to move out but the housing market is totally fricked 🙁
how do i stop this from being me? school isn't an option i'm broke but i don't know what to do
Get a job anywhere, move into the cheapest nice appartment you can find, save money to study or go out and have a normie dead-end life.
If you don't spend hundreds of dollars a month on weed, alcohol, brainwash subscriptions, driving fines and expensive new cars and phones (as normies do), minimum wage is more than enough to live and save 30%.
Also, literally nobody gives a frick about you being a loser at a min wage joint. Everyone there is a loser too just like you and makes the exact same money, even the managers.
Took me 28 years to realize it was that easy.
appreciate the replies
Honestly it's borderline impossible without breaking the law. I had a part time retail management job that earned me decent money and lived in a basement studio on a street with a homeless shelter, and left my car untaxed and uninsured at my mum's house, and I still only made just enough to pay rent and tax. I couldn't get a full time contract because my employer explicitly said I'm more valuable part time (i.e they don't want to pay me full time) and other employers didn't want me because part time experience isn't apparently good enough, and because I already had management experience I didn't qualify for their training programme. My spending money had to come from selling weed and deliveroo. Rent and ~~*council tax*~~ took up 80% of my take home pay and that was with a 25% single occupancy tax discount. It took me almost two years to get out of that trap, and I wish I moved back home sooner so I'd actually have savings instead of wasting my money on the fricking government.
I'm now earning less than I did back then, but I'm keeping all of it.
Just find a full time job. It's not that difficult.
probably need to take out some loans and go to community college because unlike the other delusional anons replying to you, you will get very sick and tired of working meaningless manual labor jobs by the time youre 25, that is if you dont already develop back problems by then
I had to move back in when covid haplened as i losy my job. Its a walkout basement/apartment so i have my own space and pay them $1000/m. Mybold apartnent i was renting from 2015-2020 went from $900/m to $1600. Hoe am i dupposed to afford that?
Not enough, talk to your Dad's anons. One day they will be skinny dried out husks with shit stained underwear and you'll need to be the big man.
My dad beat me as his main form of punishment...even when I didn't do anything wrong. That's the most I remember about him during my childhood. I don't remember spending time with him otherwise. He was obsessed with politics as his only hobby. I hold a lot of resentment towards him now.
If he was sorry, I could find it in myself to forgive him. But he acts like he did nothing wrong, and then tries to turn it back onto me and starts listing my faults. Im pretty sure he's a textbook narcissist. He is still obsessed with politics and listens to talk radio some 12 hours a day. I look at him with contempt and pity. I actually recently cut off all my interactions with politics because I was spending so much time on it, and I don't want to end up like him.
>If he was sorry, I could find it in myself to forgive him. But he acts like he did nothing wrong, and then tries to turn it back onto me and starts listing my faults.
Same with me. My dad refuses to change anything about himself, despite how much I have changed. When I've confronted him on unfair treatment of me in the past, he doesn't apologize & tells me that I was totally in the wrong. And that's if he doesn't pull his "I don't remember" shtick. Oh, yeah, my dad has a superpower where he can give himself amnesia & forget his memories of his abusive bipolar episodes.
When he dies of old age or one of his illnesses, I'm worried that I will be indifferent, at best, or dedicate my eulogy to shit-talking him, at worst.
Can I ask what kind of politics your dad is into? Mine is a complete MSM liberal sheep who thinks Trump is literally Hitler & Satan's gay lovechild & believes anything that CNN & Trevor Noah says. I don't even tell him who I vote for, because even before 2016, he does this "you wasted your vote, but that's okay" shit.
>TDS dad
Jej, my mother called me out to the porch where she was smoking, drinking box wine, and ceying and she demanded to know whether I'd voted for Trump or not.
My father is a Welsh immigrant, so it's kind of bizarre how he's obsessed with American politics. I've had to weasel my way out of political discussions these past few years, one time telling him that I'd like to keep my beliefs private. Back in 2016, he asked me who I was voting for, & I told him that I didn't know (I voted for Jill Stein in 2016, then I was redpilled to hell & back by how evil the Dems & MSM were, so I voted for Trump in 2020).
He literally shouted "BUT You HAve to VOTE against tRUUUUUMPP!!!" (yes, that's really how he said it). I then told him that I can vote whoever I want to, & he caved. I feel like he wants be to be his proxy voter because he's an immigrant & I'm a citizen.
>Jill Stein
>voting for a woman
You are a failure
Give him a break he's w*lsh
Voting Gary Johnson is a forgivable offense but Jill Stein is a crime against humanity
In my defense, I was disillusioned with the big two parties at the time, Republicans were still filled with neocons who wanted endless oil wars. Also, I didn't know the Green Party was full of open border socialist bullshit, I just wanted pro-environment policies. Despite being a full MAGA Republican, now, I am still a tree hugger at heart. Mainly, though, it was a protest vote against the two party system.
Also, I was very late to the Trump Train. I thought all the Kekistan shit was extremely cringe, but I became more "radicalized" to the Right after all the shit that Antifa & BLM did.
I voted for Stein in 2016 too, got redpilled shortly after. It's my darkest secret and I have legit never told anyone except the airheaded sorority girl I was dating at the time (she didn't know who Jill Stein was).
I voted for gilf Stein in 2012 because I see president as a chiefly martial position and both Romney and Obama were slavering after war.
Then Trump in 2016, and I was almost assblasted enough to doodle a little wiener in the write-in section in 2020 because of forays into Syria but I ended up voting Trump again.
Your a failure of a son. If i was your dad id be ashamed.
>Im pretty sure he's a textbook narcissist.
you gotta go back
>He was obsessed with politics as his only hobby. I hold a lot of resentment towards him now.
These are the types of people that complain about /misc/
You shouldn't have been such a homosexual that didn't get the message the first time
Your dad sounds like an butthole, and it's regrettable to see that Cinemaphile has people who agree with him
People here just like acting contrarian, thats all.
there are two sides to every story, we have no idea what anon did. and whos more likely to be reliable, the adult with a family, or the fricking child? dont be so quick to side with him
i dont know the extent of what your dad did, but its weird to me that you seem to fixate on wanting him to apologize, or at least recognize his faults. my dad did a lot of dumb shit to me growing up, and i dont give a frick what he thinks, he will always be wrong. no point in even bringing it up.
Wow I’m sorry you grew up democrat
>obsessed with politics
So just like this board? Please don't ever have children then, Cinemaphile. Not that you're going to anyway.
>tfw typing this as my infant son sleeps on a pillow in my lap
Your dad sounds pretty cool
this isn’t reddit. stop blogposting about your uninteresting life
>the 59-year-old /misc/ack
lol your dad probably has trannies living rent free in his head nowadays.
Why couldn't they just see eye to eye?
The Goofy Movie is the best of the Renaissance Era Disney movies, and it's not even close.
my dad died of an overdose when i was in 7th grade
checkmate democrats
As a kid in 1995 I sided with Goofy. I love my dad and wished he would take me on trips like that.
Roxanne was so beautiful that as a shy kid i literally had trouble making eye contact with a furry movie character
true
Would Bobby Brown have been a good Powerline?
I was always on Goofy’s side
This. Even as a kid I thought max was being a shit.
this homie eatin cheese
>Still eat spray cheese once in a while just because this movie
>butthurt principal calls your son a gang member and will be executed one day
>Goofy is such a moron he believes the little homosexual
Nah, Goofy was a c**t tbh
Idk my dad beat me then left when I was 16 and my only father figure was fricking Joe Rogan
It’s not your fault.
>Saw a power line band tv shit at target picking random shit up
>Desire to consume brought up out of nowhere
I love this movie man
Was there some big recent push/anniversary for this movie ? I’ve seen people in shirts with it on and people online talking about it
Is it on Disney+ and people are rediscovering it? I think Disney tends to ignore it since it wasn't made by the main animation studio so it was forgotten by many.
I wasn’t alive in 1995, do you guys really?
goofy was still wrong, he was treating max like a baby
I've tried, but he's an emotionally & verbally abusive butthole who has bipolar mood swings with little to no provocation. I live with him (would move out, if I could afford it), but we're like a loveless married couple who won't get divorced for the sake of the kids.
We get along most of the time, but there's too much between us, & a lot of shitty things he's done to me that I can't forgive him, for.
You should get a job and move out asap.
show breasts
haha how much of a homosexual do you have to be to say this online
>we're like a loveless married couple who won't get divorced for the sake of the kids
actually its nothing like that, you are the kid who wont leave in this scenario. its pretty cut and dry lmao
My dad was 39 when I was born. I remember regularly asking him to do activities, usually sports, and he would always tell me to go find friends to do it with instead of asking him. Most of my childhood memories of him were him always being angry, yelling, sometimes hitting me, a few times hit my mother. Mom always celebrated when he would go on business trips so she would get peace from him. Never taught me any life skills at all.
I'm 30 and still live at home, a completely worthless loser, and barely even speak to him and have been like this for years. He clearly is despondent over what a loser I ended up being and resents me
same on pretty much all this. your dad like my dad are both huge losers and they project onto you. jus accept it and get away from him
oh yeah, besides finances my dad is definitely a huge loser. never seen him have a friend (although part of this can probably be attributed to me because i think parents are supposed to be friends with their childrens' friends) and he has no hobbies. he "retired' then basically went right back to work as an independent consultant/contractor working and traveling nearly as much as he did working full time probably because he would have literally nothing to do otherwise.
i left for 4 years for college and nothing really changed
having my dad be the same age as my grandmother would be so weird. glad my parents had me young.
Similar to me without the beatings. I was always there for him and keen to spend time with him but he'd always be an butthole and never give anything back. Unironically the opposite of the usual dad son relationship trope.
>Most of my childhood memories of him were him always being angry, yelling, sometimes hitting me, a few times hit my mother.
Yep. Hit my mother maybe once, as far as I know, the night they got separated. Hit my sister a few times, too, but that fricking c**t treats him like the sweet little old man he wants people to think he is.
My sister is also a toxic part of my life. Thankfully, she lives on the west coast, me on the east. We only talk on birthdays & Christmas.
>Mom always celebrated when he would go on business trips so she would get peace from him.
Me when my dad leaves to visit his girlfriend on the other side of the country.
>Never taught me any life skills at all.
My dad has taught me things, but he doesn't approve of me standing up for myself. He thinks that I should always take abuse from other people & acts disappointed if I so much as use curse words & give them the middle finger in response. He is a """""pacifist""""", you see.
My mom was the horrible parents.
Alcoholic, depressive emotionnally abusive to her husband and childre.
I still hate her.
didn't want children by fear of becoming a shitstain parent just like her.
This is just the bane of your parents having you old. I just hope you realize your mother was wrong for demonizing your father, you turned out depressed no better than him.
I was both confused as to why Goofy didn't strike or yell at Max but also found myself repulsed by goofy's voice and moron antics.
>I was both confused as to why Goofy didn't strike or yell at Max
Damn bro
Honestly, this is the first time in the history of the world that due to advancements of medicine, the older population will not fricking die and concede the world to the youth. This is whats causing so much strain and strife in the world right now. Look at old people. They run everything, but can barely drive a car. Its absolute insanity. Our president is on his death bed but running our country. Old people need to die. They need to be removed from society. More resources for us, and actual competent people can run society. Frick them all.
yes goy its your grandparents fault not ours !! now put them in the old folks home!
our grandparents were useful idiots for them, so yes. you stupid shill
All old people dying includes old israelites.
not true at all moron, there were centenarians in the 1800s
my father and I
>but it's going to be loud and crowded I want to go on the trip with you instead
>go to the concert you fricking pussy
>literally two people who liked their parents itt
No wonder you gays are gays. Daddy didn't love you.
i dont think its as simple as daddy not loving me for how i ended up here. probably his and my mom's personalities above all else. very little affection in my household growing up. in fact most of my childhood my dad threatened with moving out//divorce and lived in guest bedrom for a few years but never left
Dad slapped me around a bit and yelled constantly, but that's just because he's a fricking sperg. I still love the silly bastard all the same. It's much better being his son as an adult and being able to sit around and drink with him.
Most kids need a little slapping around. Mine never touched me but my mom sure as shit did. Good to see at least one other person has a good relationship with their dad. I pitty people who can't talk to their dad about real shit and get a "I'm proud of you son" when you leave
>I'm proud of you son
He's autistic and was born in the 50's, he may have mumbled something vaguely resembling this when I got married, but he's pretty mum on the day-to-day.
Good enough anon. Can't fault spases in that age group. They were beat into submission for existing
amazing isnt it? no wonder whites are going extinct they hate their families and dont want one of their own
i mean they really got fricked and psyop'd
>It's your parents fault your a failure goy
>Definitely not decades of market manipulation and endless wars for no real purpose other than to flex the arm of the military
Talk to your dad's anon. Ignore their bullshit and just tell them you love them. Apologize for missing father's day. Worst case scenario your old man gets in a tissy and you can have a laugh
Ah yes, some vague and nebulous over-arching global problem is what's the real culprit as to why anon's personal relationship with his family ids in trouble.
its not that he didnt love me, its that his generation didnt teach him to be honest with himself and his feelings, and my emotional honesty makes him uncomfortable, da
If your dad did better than his sometimes that's the best you can ask for. I have only heard my dad say I love you maybe 4 times
Now that I think about it, I'm 26 years old and I've never heard my Dad say he loves me, not once, hell last time I got a hug from him was when I was 6.
dad respecters report in
I like my dad but he's not a great role model. He introduced me to a lot of cool shit though.
I'm a Hispanic, my dad left me when I was a kid
same, except whitey.
I grew out of hating my dad when I was like 17. Now I just relate to him
That's the exact problem though, white boomer fathers have ruined an entire generation.
And who do you think ruined them, Anon?
OR you’re all homosexuals.
I love my dad too, and I miss him everyday. I have had nightmares every night for years about not being there for him
Im in really good terms with my parents, still live with them but got a really good job in a company and made them proud again.
Had to suck it up with shitty intern jobs for about a year but it feels good not being a drag freeloader.
Still hate family vacations though.
Mom is based, dad's a violent meth head.still on Goofy's side
I look back and realize my dad was awesome and made a great effort. He definitely didn't give me enough life skills, but that was more due to limited time with him after the divorce. We have a solid relationship even if high-school was rocky.
I'm in the same boat as Nathan. My dad is frickin awesome.
If you watched this in 1995 you are in your 40s now.
This far down and still no Roxanne? I'm disappointed, anons.
she was so cute
>Disney movie
>starts with the MC having a wet dream about an underage girl
How did they get away with this
Honestly they should have just sucked and fricked each other or maybe 4some with Pete, or whatever the frick Max's dog boy friend was called, and his dad
t. Degenerate who daddy didn't love
Sex with Goofy
>only child so already pre-disposed to be autistic
>mother in mid 30s, dad late 30s when i was born, strike two
>father was narcissistic asocial butthole, strike three
>only family was on dad's side and only see them at most once a year so don't have a good relationship with extended family either, strike four
Literally me
>>only child so already pre-disposed to be autistic
Are first-born children more likely to be autistic after controlling for age of parents?
I love my dad more than anything on the planet and I think that if I have a son I would love him more than anything else on the planet
It's pretty unlikely I will ever have kids. It's honestly difficult for me to imagine having kids, or giving a shit about them if they existed. If the mom could take care of them, I would stay out of their lives completely except child support.
So Cinemaphile is full of people with parental issues. Unsurprising.
Feels weird to talk about it and realize I'm the extreme minority and even have 2 kids of my own. The other way of looking at it is some of thes angsty shits are probably young enough to be my kids
Sometimes it hits me that I’m not just shitposting with fellow trolls all trying to have a laugh, some of these people are actually serious.
It's really sad. Pity is the most vile emotional. I feel for these guys and getting older is only making it worse .
>Dad likes betting and Aus football
>I lose interest in watching Aus football at a young age because our team fricking sucked for years
>I stop playing it to do umpiring instead as I was pretty shit, and stopped umpiring after about 2 or 3 years.
>Along the way noticed Dad and I only spoke in relation to football, so I stopped engaging with football just to see what would happen
>Today we have a non-existent relationship
He's not a bad guy, and he got screwed by his generation not being emotionally honest and his own dad apparently talking more AFTER he got a stroke, but yeah we just don't do anything together unless it's his specific interests. One time Essendon (a team down here) bought an Esports team for LoL and showed me the article like "look anon video games", and another time I invited him to play Portal 2 co-op and he just didn't care. I'm a little sad/bitter about it, which is why I'm blogposting now, I don't hate him but we don't try to connect anymore.
It happens. Try and take him out for a nature walk every now and then if you can
>I invited him to play Portal 2 co-op and he just didn't care
Not surprised, Portal 2 is a trash game, the beginning of the end for Valve.
Should have played some Rainbow 6
I've had a great dad. Feel sorry for all the people in this thread who weren't able to have one.
My dad died when I was 12, he was sick and he was going to the hospital and the last thing I said to him was that he should not forget his underwear, and he died 3 days later. I have felt like such a shit head because those were the last words I spoke to my dad, but I loved him very dearly. I am now 33.
They were flippant words, but it was an expression of caring nonetheless.
The man was probably thinking about it in his final hours and lamented his weak body wouldn't be around for you. Don't be so hard on yourself I would get a laugh if my daughter said that to me
Telling someone to remember to pack its underwear is a loving thing to do.
that's cute
imagine having a dad h-haha
>that kid who dreamed of performing Power Line in front of the entire school, students cheering and going wild, his crush finally noticing him and going out with him after
that kid was me
>last day of school
>Kids screaming and throwing sheets of paper everywhere.
I remember the last day of 1st grade and being disappointed when this didn’t happen
You want some real autism? I used to fantasize about beating up terrorists or school shooters and then the girls having sex with me.
Yes. We used to get drunk together, he was basically bro tier, once I got older. Then one day he just dropped dead. Not a bad way to go, lucky bastard.
I loved going on trips with my dad, We went to oregon, camping, gramma's house, comic conventions..
now he's remarried and we hardly talk
People here will NOT believe me and instead go into cope-mode, but here it is: People go to eternal hellfire when they die. Jesus is real, and John 3:16-19 tells us clearly that those who don't believe are CONDEMNED ALREADY and on their way to eternal hellfire by default.
You must warn your older parents and give them a bible, sadly tv-shows about bullshit is more important to old people than God's holy words and their eternal souls.
How do you know the Bible is correct?
I am a Christian. It's axiomatic.
People of other religions have just as much faith they are right as you do, despite having contradictory views.
There was Christianity before the NT was compiled, anon.
this is a bullshit response, and I say that as a Christian. You've failed to listen to Peter:
>but in your hearts honor Christ the Lord as holy, always being prepared to make a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason for the hope that is in you; yet do it with gentleness and respect,
Personal supernatural experience with Jesus Christ where I was forced to kneel before him and my hands came together like a prayer, as if held together by chains. This happened after calling out to God in my time of darkness, and it all ligned up with scripture
Romans 10:13
King James Version
>13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
There is only one who has the authority to make you kneel and that is Jesus. Not even satan could force eve to eat the apple or shove it down her throat, he had to trick her to not transgress against her free will.
Only Jesus has the authority to force people to kneel before him, see Romans 14:11
>This happened after calling out to God in my time of darkness, and it all ligned up with scripture
Let me guess, you were some kind of hedonist, right?
>I was forced to kneel before him and my hands came together like a prayer, as if held together by chains
Textbook demonic encounter.
Christ doesn't go for that type of razzle-dazzle.
Testify brother
>no one can say, “Jesus is Lord,” except by the Holy Spirit.
God bless brother
>John 3:16-19 tells us clearly a parcel of israeli lies
The ENTIRE new testament is a scam put together by Saul of Tarsus to pull the White man down to the gutter and obscure the true teachings of Christ.
They were both saved, so suck it gaybo

If Goofy was an actually good father Max would likely have gone on the trip with him despite the concert. Boomer dad's are almost an entire generation of failures as fathers. They ignore their kids during the bonding years then suddenly when they're teens and showing signs of moving on with their own lives and no attachments these rapidly approaching senior age boomers try to force family activities on their teenaged kids who have no real connection to them besides the burden of family.
If Goofy was a good father, Max wouldn't be obsessed with such a homosexual pop star in the first place.
Correct. Kids who have good parents almost universally adopt their parents tastes and opinions.
No. And my prostitute ex took my son from me so I don't get to do that either.
happened to me too fren. i did everything in my power to get him back and now we are all living together. bridge can be rebuild my friend, believe in yourself
Pete was so based in this movie. I love how he and Goofy were friends and that they just had two different parenting styles.
>PJ fricked up as much as Max at school
>Pete still took him camping, just made him work it off
Pete's parenting wasn't wrong,
my dad and i went shooting together regularly. i met some new shooting friends and told him i was meeting them for a range day. he wanted to go and i told him we were going in the afternoon, knowing due to his work schedule he wouldnt be able to make it. i wanted to shoot with my new friends without him.
very shortly after, he was diagnosed with late stage cancer and died soon after that.
he was a good dad but i wasnt a good son. i feel like ive said this a lot to him but i'm sorry, dad.
He knows, anon.
i think so too. when he got sick, we did at home hospice care. one day i told him "i wish we got to go shooting one more time" and he had a look on his face. i could type out multiple paragraphs explaining what this look meant but its basically what you wrote.
I have about three good memories of my dad and maybe seven bad ones. A road trip would have been more time spent together in a week than we ever actually did in 15 years. He didn't really like me I guess, lol.
Who was in the wrong here?
Max. It was always Max
My dad I never had shared hobbies or interests. He was and still is very sporty and athletic guy and I am a shut in introvert nerd that dislikes sports and just exercising in general.
I respect him and help him out when he asks for me to do stuff like come and aid at maintenance of our family's summer place, but I can't say that we have much if anything in common and I kinda feel that he is ashamed or resentful of me for being such a loser.
How old are you? I had a similar situation growing up. After school I got a decent job and take care of myself. There's a mutual respect over that as there's a few cousins who were kind of a disaster.
You might well age into what you are looking for.
I'm a 29 years old loser.
I'm older, still a looser, but at least self sufficient.
Your dad is Stan Chad Smith, a jock. And you are Steven Beta Smith, a nerd.
Yeah, kinda. My dad grew up in a farm and is essentially a self made man on whom I owe the quality of life I grew up with. I feel that I will forever be in his shadow.
Several years ago we went hiking for 7 hours and it was great. Since then we haven't spent time for the sake of hanging out, it's mostly work we do together. Yesterday he called, said my little sister is doing fine, asked me when I was coming back, complained about the dry weather and failing crops, I complained about this year's uncertainty about everything, and we concluded that's life. Small talk but it felt good.
My dad was pretty busy when I grew up but I also only saw him mostly on weekends or some other irregular interval I don't remember. He was always very loving, though, and before I joined the military I had breakfast with him every sunday. Even though he is a bit too center left and judgy with me when we talk frequently on the phone he always tells me he is proud of me and loves me.
Keep in mind his other two children are worthless garbage but by all accounts he shows them the same love even though I'm the only somewhat successful/stable one
My dad is homeless by choice. He says he’s happy and refuses to change. I don’t spend time with him any more even though it would be easy. He’s a few blocks away
I feel bad for you homies. I love my parents more than anybody else in the world. I'm 30 and love going to visit and spend time with them.
I have a very good relationship with my mother, who I visit when I can.
Enjoy it, anon, you're one of the lucky few.
>you're one of the lucky few
Lots of people have good families and lots don't. It's just that the ones who don't are more likely to post here
I know, I meant lucky few of us here, I thought that was obvious.
People who are "well adjusted" and the only bad thing to happen to them is their parent dying, dont turn out well
That means you had good parents anon. Most anons in this thread were either beaten or neglected by their parents.
very nice
my dad would rather watch tv all day
My butthole dad did this. My friend had wrestlemania tickets, and he insisted we go fishing like we can literally go the week after like motherfricker the lake isn't going anywhere.
He was jealous. He probably wanted to do something like that with you but you're not allowed to admit you like wrestling as an adult, it's shameful
Not enough time and I regret it every day. Same with my grandfather. I did the same mistake twice.
He wasnt a good dad and i wasnt a good son. Many such cases
I made the effort. He didn't and regretted it. Que sera.
Well mine was an absent father my whole life, and left our family to be with some tramp and her kid. I see him now and again and we go for a dinner and a drink but I absolutely don't see him as a father. He's a failure and an embarrassment.
I try to give my kids advice and they just ignore me. Try to go toss the ball around but they are too busy playing vidya.
No kid really appreciates connection, pal. Its just granted. When they get older and the world puts a little dirt in their eye, they'll appreciate the old man is there and he actually gives a shit.
don't worry, they'll eventually regret having not spent that time with you and make it up to you
t. doing this with my dad now
My dad's gonna be dead in a couple years. He was conscripted in the 80s as a 16 year old to fight for Iraq. He got injured, left the country and had me in his 30s. Never taught me anything or gave me anything to inherit. Sometimes I think I should try to spend time with him, but there's no point. I fricked up, so did he, but he was put into a hard situation.
My dad died last month. I never liked spending time with him anyways, but it's still sad. I feel like he over-helped me in life to the point where I don't feel competent as an adult. On the other hand, if he didn't help me so much, I might be in jail or dead. I still might end up like that.
Is there a reason Goofy couldn't just schedule the trip the week after the concert? His car and kid are going to be around all summer, concerts only stick around for a day or two. With a little patience it feels like both could get their way without any conflict
Goofy has a job in this movie anon, and it looks like he was working with Pete. Seems like they both had this time off on purpose.
My dad and me bonded over going to concerts and listening to rock. He's an butthole but he's always been there for me and would let me live with him if I paid rent but insteadi live with my woman. He's a moderate liberal that really thinks conservatives are dumb and that's what I am and we're both financial losers.
>Me in even later adulthood: C'Mon Goofy, Pete's away from the yacht, go rape Peg
Pete went to frick goofy
I love my father very much, and I know he loves me as well. I've mostly had a very positive, warm, and close relationship with him, but I'm afraid that I'm going to struggle with the legacy he leaves behind for me. For as amazing of a father he's been to me, he's also at times been needlessly and extremely cruel to me in the name of "Toughening" me up. Not to mention, he's rather short-tempered, and at some of the lowest points in our relationship, he's: A.) Thrown me out of our apartment over an argument and let me get rained on until I was soaking wet, B.) Pulled out his gun on me during another argument and physically threatened to attack me with a piano bench, and C.) Once threatened to punch me in the mouth because I misremembered a Bible verse.
These lows sound very abusive, don't they? That's why I think I'm going to struggle a lot with what I deem my Father's legacy to me is when he's gone...
>physically threatened to attack me with a piano bench
Luxury! When I was your age, my dad used to beat me with an old sousaphone.
When I was about 9 or 10 and I told my father I hate going to church(Mormon) and he smacked me in the head so hard that it dislodged my eyeball. When I was in high school, he caught me smoking a joint in the backyard and he put the cherry out on my forearm, almost at the bend in my elbow.
The past decade, my dad has been dealing with diabetes and kidney failure. Lots of dialysis these days. I'm sure he would like a kidney donor, and I'd give him one of mine but when the Doctor disqualified me on the grounds of ptsd, it almost gives me a cathartic relief. This butterfly effect we weave. If he had bothered giving me a better childhood, his best possible chance of getting the MOST compatible kidney, wouldn't have been declined because of psychological trauma. Trauma inflicted by him. I often wonder if he blames himself.
My parents want me to visit, but I've unpack a lot of religious trauma as well this summer, and I just don't think I can visit them without absolutely going nuclear on them for devoting their lives to a cult.
I went on countless trips like this with him. We both hated it.
My dad is based, he likes kinos, hates liberals and we play Baldur's Gate and similar games together
Sometimes I get impatient and angry when we play because he takes too long or makes some mistake, not being as much of an elite gamer as me. I feel really bad and regretful about it later
My parents are both scumbags. My dad was in and out jail for all of my childhood and my mom was a literal prostitute.
I played Dnd with my dad once every two weeks on thursday for 5 years. It was just us two, doing behind the scenes adventures to flesh out his epic 35 year campaign.
I spent thousands of hours with him, but I would do anything to have one more session.
damn that sounds fun
Please tell us more about the 35 year campaign and also please write it all down so it can be preserved
if you are attached to your parents post 30 you got fricking huge issues.
im glad to be away from my clingy mother.
i fricking hate my inlaws and wish they would be gone already.
My uncle lived with my grandmother until he died. I always thought it was weird as frick. Crazier part is he helped some girl he was dating get a house but never moved in with her
>if you are attached to your parents post 30 you got fricking huge issues.
Well not everyone grew up in dysfunctional families. Some people grew up with genuinly decent people around them and you dont throw them by the wayside that easily. If your parents were shit people who beat and berated you all week long, sure I could get why someone would distance themselves from their family, but most people have good families and saying that you shouldnt have an relationship with your parents after an set age is you just projecting your own dysfunctional relationship with your parents onto everyone around you thinking they're crazy for still talking with their mum.
Me and my dad went on a camping trip 6 months before he died of cancer.
The only thing I wish was different was that I was struggling with some personal shit at the time that I wasnt wholy there, but it was a good trip nevertheless.
There was alot of thing me and my dad planned to do, but never followed through on, but you have to let that shit go. There's way too much shit you should have done and you can easily blame yourself for not having the foresight to see that they wouldnt be around 3 years down the road. People dont live with a timelimit on the people around them. It's just not a sustainable way of living so people put off things they could do today, but they also could do further down the road.
It's just how it is.
My dad died when I was 7.
He used to have seizures because he was diabetic and didn't manage his levels so I lived almost my entire time with him in fear because I was always scared and waiting for him to have another one.
It was the worst feeling bros. I don't hate my dad but I wish he took better care of himself so he'd be around to watch his kids grow up.
Never got meet my dad. My biological loved me enough to not kill me before I was born. Grandma and Grandpa practically raised me so I consider them my parents. (25 and still live with them).
My biological mom*
My dad doesn't want to do shit or go anywhere. I wish I had a dad who wanted to take me camping and hunting and fishing and shit. The only thing my dad ever does is blow his money at the casino on slot machines.
>The only thing my dad ever does is blow his money at the casino on slot machines.
Then you can go to the casino with him
>dad never taught me anything
>me, a clueless moron
>has heart issues and will most likely die within the next 5 years
I'm so fricked
Hey, at least you have Cinemaphile
HAHAHAHHAA
you're so fricked
When are we pooling our resources together to build a Cinemaphile mansion so we can all be neets together?
I'm a pipefitter so I will gladly join in this enterprise.
>Pipe Fitter
So do you fit your pipe into other men's buttholes or do they fit their pipe into yours?
That's laying pipe, anon. Fitting pipe is where you fit pipes inside houses.
I don't watch fricking cartoons for children so I can't relate to this garbage.
ok gamer
This thread.....
I'm definitely in the fatherless category. My parents divorced when I was 3-4 years old (32 now), and after that I can literally count the times I've seen my dad since. Less than 20 times for sure.
He was neglectful, abusive of my half-brother, drank a lot. The only good memories I have of him is watching The Big Lebowski, The Matrix, and The Waterboy. The last one, I saw against my will since he promised me and my sister he was taking us to A Bugs Life.
Right now I'm the most stable from my 4 siblings. The rest having crippling Bipolar, or PTSD disorder from years of drug and violent abuse. My mother was emotionally neglectful, manipulative, and a strong narcissist who was never wrong.
As a result of all that, I'm very withdrawn and never speak to family unless they reach out. I drink, stay mostly to myself, but still wish I could be more emotionally open to others, but instead I hate myself, and deny myself happiness.
Psychology is a pseudoscience and the only "issues" your siblings have is being in that cult
>The rest having crippling Bipolar, or PTSD disorder from years of drug and violent abuse.
I can tell you right now that it is borderline personality disorder. If it's diagnosed Bipolar 2 stemming from a abusive upringing, it's borderline 95% of the time.
Those aren't real things
nothing is real
No, my dad was an butthole and was kicked out by my mum when I was 14, it was the greatest day of my life. I completely ignored him and his attempts to try and reconnect for years but I eventually gave in and started letting him back into my life. He isn't gone and he and I have a better relationship now, it isn't terrific but it's better, he lives in the country town that he grew up in and I live in the city, he comes down every so often to visit me and my siblings, he'll take us out for lunch and shit. He really likes Star Wars and old macho man kino's (Anything starring Arnold, Sylvester, Van Damme, Clint Eastwood, Bruce Lee, people like that), maybe I should watch more of the movies that he likes with him, but I can't be botherd.
My dad is slowly isolating himself from every member of our family. He obsesses over perceived slights and treats his kids and siblings like shit. I was one of the last people left who was still on good terms with him, but I made the shit list for not spending enough time with him when I was in town for a work conference. He didn't write anything I told him down and blamed me for not being around when he wanted. The last good memory I have with him is going to Yellowstone together five years ago. I want my dad back.
My dad's a fricking c**t who is going to die soon because of his ill health caused by his terrible life choices. Frick him, I've been waiting for him to die for years. I don't speak to him anymore, I just want him dead so I can visit my mother in peace.
Frick you for lettjng your mom go through thid alone.
I've realized that we've missed so many years because he was addicted to playing WoW, every conversation was about things in game (I had stopped playing after the first expansion) and every time we were alone he would be fidgety and sneak off to do things online like the auction house. We had many fights about it that it isn't even funny and I was surprised mom and him didn't divorce because he would be upstairs every evening till 1am, only coming down to eat or to do chores and they would often fight because he spend more time upstairs and had to do everything else at the last minute. This was maybe 10 years of his life maybe longer. He had a heart attack and couldn't game anymore and due to that it was like my dad had changed into a vulnerable old man with the responses of a child. I had about five more years where we bonded because he needed assistance before he passed away from covid. He was never really dad anymore but I cherish those years even though they were hard
When we would be out driving together, my dad used to occasionally "joke" about how he could drive into oncoming traffic or down the cliff or whatever and kill us both, just to try to get a rise out of me and an evil little kick for him.
He even did it once when my son was in the car with us, I think he maybe thought he was thinking it or saying it under his breath, but that was when he died to me. Now he's the guy who lives with my mom who I kind of get along with I guess.
This said it was 100% my fault and I deserved it, because people don't say stuff like that for no reason
it's sad you think that was your fault
Jesus Christ forgives the repentant.
>it's sad you think that was your fault
no, it's funny to me. I stopped caring about it in a non-comedic way a long time ago
your dad is literally a crazy person
you just typed that because you want attention. you know thats not true
I was a fat gamer as a teen so sure enough when my dad wanted to hangout I’d put him off just to play video games, when he passed away I began to regret every moment I didn’t spend hanging out with him. God what I give just to fishing with him one more time
My dad is great
yeah, i kinda did and still do sometimes, he separated from my mother and then left me shortly after when I was 5 to get a better job somewhere else so he could provide better shit for me
i wish he didn’t, he left me with a mentally unstable mother who loved me very much but just wasn’t emotionally ready to raise someone else and thus between the 2 gave me all sorts of mental and emotional problems that I’m still trying to get over today, I mean, after all I’m here blogposting in Cinemaphile at graveshift hours
he was young, didn’t make the best choices, I’ve forgiven him for most of it i think although I still get mad when he says something wrong about me without knowing me that much but I can deal with it
I miss my dad everyday, i wish I’d done more, def have regrets
my father is still alive.
>tfw parents love me so much they are worried I will leave their house and live alone

do you have passive income from crypto or something?
My dad was a hard bastard, but in retrospect I'm so thankful for him and I do miss him. Everything that I am that I'm proud of is because I came from him. I mean, my parents divorced when I was five, my mom was nuts. My das was emotionally unavailable and quite frankly tried to kill me a few times when I was little (at like 2 and 3 he'd drop me in the deep end of a pool and leave, or drive me to another neighborhood and leave me there to find my own way home) because until he had a paternity test done, he didn't believe I was his.
He was 6'1, built like a football player, blue eyes and blonde hair, mean as frick looking, but also extremely high IQ. He served in the Navy and was a specialized oral surgeon. Was offered to play professional baseball, but didn't think taking the job would be practical. He boasted a hundred women in every port the Naval ship landed and by the end of his life had been married nine times. Kind of racist, but in a peculiar way. I mean one of his wives was Hispanic and one of his wives was Filipino (number 9) but mostly he didn't care for blacks, unless it was a black woman with massive breasts. I remember my mother getting all upset because he liked some black singer with massive breasts and she was like "I thought you hated blacks." and he was like "She's okay though. She can stay." He told me once that through high school and college, he and a group of friends regularly participated in "gaybashing" and made a sport of chasing down and beating the shit out of homosexuals until they left town. He told me this not with shame, but with pride.
I remember bringing home black friends, and it pissing him the everloving frick off, and the kids saying they were terrified of my dad and he was the devil. My mom claimed he hit her, I never saw it. I saw her throw shit and do a lot of crazy stuff and he yelled a lot, but I never once saw him lay a hand on her.
>Me, in 2014: Comfy Simpson Thread
>Me, now: Sneed
Has anything ruined the board more than sneed?
The sign is a subtle joke. The shop is called "Sneed's Feed & Seed", where feed and seed both end in the sound "-eed", thus rhyming with the name of the owner, Sneed. The sign says that the shop was "Formerly Chuck's", implying that the two words beginning with "F" and "S" would have ended with "-uck", rhyming with "Chuck".
But, subverting expectations, when Chuck owned the shop, it was actually called "Chuck's Feed and Seed".
Subverting expectations is the essence of humor.
It's actually a subtle joke. The sign says "Sneed's Feed & Seed" which to the untrained eye, is nothing short of ordinary, but because this is The Simpsons, we know that Matt Groening probably has a couple of tricks up his sleeve. If you divert your eyes just below the large text on the sign, you will notice the delectably insidious subtitle that is "Formerly Chuck's." Now at first glance, this doesn't raise any alarms, but when you read the entire sign as a whole, it say's "Sneed's Feed & Seed, formerly Chuck's" and the message becomes more clear; Here, we are using the classic Hollywood trope of "fill in the blanks with your head," in conjunction with the "rule of rhymes." That is, owner Sneed is in charge of Feed & Seed, because by some miracle of circumstance he just happened to gain ownership of a shop that rhymes with his surname. Chuck, on the other hand, would logically follow this aforementioned "rule of rhymes," and if you allow the juvenile in you to let loose, what are the first words that come to mind? I'll leave the rest of that one up to you! Cheerio!
Do you expect me to read all that?
No, I expect you to sneed all of that.
Black person
Frick no
He turned out to be like HIS dad
both were just hardened by the war and then the inner city
I'm more sensitive than them but after living in the city for 15 years, that shit changes you
We never agreed on a single thing so i do not literally care
my dad took me to see this as the first thing we did together after he moved out from the divorce and I felt so dad the whole time while simultaniously feeling guilt because dad was trying to do something nice and i just sat there with tears on my face
>Dad diagnosed with MS 6 years before I was born
>Hit his legs so he can't bend his legs or move faster than a walk
>Never told me or my sister growing up so we just assumed he didn't want to spend time with us
>Always yelling at us, telling us we're useless etc etc
As an adult I don't hate my dad anymore but there's an irrational part of me that gets very angry when I spend more than 30 seconds talking to him, I've gotten much better at not showing any anger now that we actually have conversations, I never spoke more than 10 words at a time to my dad until I was 23 and we've lived together all my life.
Learning more about my Dad's upbringing and stuff that went on in his life helped me understand why he turned out like he did.
>Grandpa put into wheelchair from work accident when Dad was 6
>Beats Dad
>Dad gets cheated on and divorced from his first wife, he had 2 kids with her at the time
>His father dies
>His best friend dies on the job, his body literally landing 15 yards away from him
>Grandma is diagnosed with cancer
>All this -other than the childhood beatings- happened in a 6 month period when he was 30
>He also gets diagnosed with MS in the same 6 month period after the rest happened
Good thing he met my mother 2 months later or he probably would've roped by now.
My dad was only visited every few weeks to talk to me and my sister for an hour or so. Then he basically stopped coming when I was looser teenager and his second son was born. He got in a huge fight with my teenage sister over her shit talking his new wife in public and haven't spoken with her in 10 years. We started seeing each other only when I was already 18 and our only interaction is hunting at night since. I haven't seen him in daylight for years. It's not healthy but I just can't cut the contact. I think at some point he have just given up on us and his psycho second wife is to blame. Along with the lack of spine.
My Dad has dementia and thinks I'm his older brother who dies 7 years ago.
The greatest compliment a child can give their parent if they want to raise their children the same way
I’m on both their side.
Autist who has seen this movie 100+ times here.
Max should have respected Goofy and Goofy should have listened to his son. With this considered the whole movie could’ve been avoided.
One day I just up and left the house didn't say a word, wasn't really on speaking terms with my parents at the time and it stayed that way for a couple years they reached out but I just wouldn't talk to them. Then I landed in hospital and they looked after me and I aired my grievances and decided to just let them go I held so much resentment in my heart but they still loved me and all they wanted was for me to be around anymore and I was so self centered that I just wanted to spite them. Looking back on it, I feel like a terrible son for doing that to them I didn't realise how painful it must be for a parent to have their child not want them in their life, after those years when I finally saw my parents again they were older and my dad was not the fit strong man I remember he was losing his sight and walking with less strength. Tomorrow I'm going out with my family for my mom's birthday I'm ashamed to say I didn't even know when my mom's birthday was before this week, I'm gonna try be better to them since they care about me so much.
>Then I landed in hospital and they looked after me
Lol it's always some pathetic BPD shit. Let me guess, suicide attempt? Drug overdose? Also
>I finally saw my parents again they were older and my dad was not the fit strong man I rememnber
>it stayed that way for a couple years
2 years isn't that crazy
Vaccination is rape

I had a good, completely normal relationship with my dad until he died in my early 20's, so I can't be a whiny gay and blame all my problems on him.
My dads fricken great. We went fishing last week and saw a bald eagle roosting nearby, so he took his first catfish and left it at the base of the tree as an offering. He was so serious about it, I think he legit thought this eagle would bestow his favor on us for it.
Goofy is kinda in the wrong, considering that he never asked Max why he didn't have time to go to the trip.
Especially after Goofy and Max went to the girls house.
Why didn't Goofy go to the concert?
Also, no, but my dad is a pos
>Why didn't Goofy go to the concert?
He didn't even know there was one until the end of the movie
I don’t want to think about my parents and siblings dying bros.
>tfw both brother and sister are so fat they have to wiggle, moan, huff and puff just to stand up from a seated position
I'm really not looking forward to the fact that I'll statistically have to bury every immediate member of my family.
>catholic biker butthole that grew up in peak poverty during 60's detroit
>shacked up with my mom after his first marriage at 21 blew up and rode through the storms because he had 5 kids to feed
I appreciate him more now that I'm grown than when I was a child, because shit got fricking rough sometimes. He's still an butthole but I still love him.
Growing up he'd always take random trips to detroit to visit extended family and I'd always ride along because nobody else wanted to go.
Last month, my dad told me I make him feel like he failed as a parent.
Mine told me recently he's happy I pulled it together, that he's proud that I'm a good dad myself. He was definitely worried I'd be some loner weirdo.
A while back, my dad made a joke to my mom about how they were never going to have grandkids. It really showed how he thinks of me. He's always being a passive-aggressive prick.
no. good movie though
Idk i feel like fishing with my dad would have been awesome but my dad isnt the fishing type
We go hiking tho
No. We never had much in common.
My dad and I had this routine of watching the simpsons every weekend, it was nice to spend a couple of hours with him carefree. this was until season 8, when they started promoting homosexuality and celebrity horseshit and the laughter stopped. I remember my dad turning off the tv at the episode where homer kisses some homosexual and goes to gay bar or something and him saying "we dont have to watch this garbage son" and we went fishing and playing baseball on the weekends from then on. Im so grateful for that now, that I didn't have to watch the collapse of one of my favorite tv shows. I know the simpsons is still on, but I haven't seen any of it past season 8-9. No nightmares to invade those happy memories
You can't post on Cinemaphile until you've seen Season 11 Episode 5.
The writing had a fairly liberal bent to it from season 2 onwards.
Neutral to positive portrayals of Smithers being a gay were constantly peppered in, the first that springs to mind is this one from s7, and "He-llo Smi-thers, you're quite good at tur-ning me on" is from s5.
Just letting you know, your dad used to plow twinks when you weren't around. He was scared someone might find out he loves to have sex with men
>lol your dad probably has trannies living rent free in his head nowadays.
>beer turns you into a troony
There was a period in western history when agriculture and population density outpaced hygiene and germ theory so fermentation was the only method of sterilization they had, kids basically went straight from breast feeding to at least a beer a day, and kept that diet up for life.
It was really shitty weak watery beer, but the entire population of an entire continent drank beer every single day and none of them were trannies, and they'd freak out and burn a troony to death if you sent one back in time.
Yeah and they also thought elves and trolls existed and didn't know how to read, beertroony.
the skeletons of protohumans and various megafauna were accessible by them, elves and trolls were a pretty fair guess to make.
like- you unearth this while building a new fortress wall. This shit is clearly an ogre.
