Added: 2026-05-31

[00:00:00]These iPad kids can't read. I'm giving you some of a compilation of some of the funniest and craziest and most absurd iPad Kid Gen Alpha brain rot stories of all time. I hope you enjoy this. Put this on as you're trying to go to sleep.

[00:00:16]Put this on while you're doing something else. Of course, leave a like on the video. Subscribe to the channel if you're new and like stories. And that being said, let's get into these crazy iPad kid brain rot stories. How's it going everyone? Today we have a story time of an iPad kid who thinks Snow is fake. And when everyone starts to clown him, he starts a whole cult around Snow not being real. And the ending is so fun. The ending is so funny. I know you'll enjoy it. So, leave a like on the video right now to claim your free nothing. Subscribe to the channel if you're new and like stories. And with that being said, let's just jump right into it. This might be one of the funniest stories I've told in the channel in a second. Uh, so we're going to call the subscriber who submitted this story. Uh, we're gonna call him James. Anyways, this is a story when James was in seventh grade, so this was actually fairly recent. And there is this kid, we're gonna call him an iPad kid, and we're calling him Ben. There is nothing wrong with watching off of an iPad. In fact, when I was younger, everyone in my class had a phone, but it was me and my buddy Zach who both had iPad minis. But there's this kind of uh almost pjorative on the internet, this slang term called iPad kid, where it's basically some kid who has is like glued to his iPad iPad 24/7. His brain is probably rotted away. He's scrolling endless brain rot videos on Tik Tok and Roblox and memes and all that kind of stuff. And he's the type of kid who will see something online and believe it's true. So, one of the first early signs that uh James saw about Ben being a super kind of like iPad kid was earlier in the school year during his science class. So, they're all sitting in science and the teacher was explaining gravity, you know, uh the reason why you're not floating away right now. Um so, he's sitting there, James is kind of like spacing out, whatever. He's kind of looking on his phone. James admits he's might not be the best student of all time. You know, he does his best, right?

[00:02:06]Maybe. But um he's sitting there and that's when he sees in his peripheral vision that Ben raises his hand and he looks over and Ben has this super smug look and the teacher's like yes. And he like is like so teacher I'm pretty sure you're wrong here. And the teacher is like uh what do you mean? You said you know gravity you forgot to you forgot to leave out a pretty crucial detail. I was on YouTube shorts yesterday and I learned a little bit more about gravity. And the teacher is like, "Oh, Ben, that's amazing. Like, if you want to, you know, I was keeping it very basic, but I'd love to hear what you learned." He's like, "Mhm, yep. Um, I don't even know if you know this teacher." And he's being so smug and arrogant about it, which is so funny based on what he's about to say. He's like, "Just so everyone knows." And he turns around to the class. Gravity is simply just magnets in the ground. He's like, "I saw that on YouTube shorts." So like half the glass starts laughing.

[00:03:10]He's like, "No, it's m teacher. Tell them." And and the teacher is like, "Uh, Ben." So gravity is not magnets in the ground. And Ben just looks there shocked and stunned. And he's like, "No, no, no, no, no." He pulls out his iPad and he shows this like super obviously AI slopp blurry YouTube shorts clip as proof of just it's it's like almost like intentionally a troll video. It's like 50% like an obviously fake video. 50% someone is like they might be joking around with just like how bad and stupid it was. He's like, "This is clearly undeniable proof. The secrets the government doesn't want us to know." The teacher is like, "Well, I could go a little bit more in depth on gravity. Um, but all you guys really need to know is that it's a force, you know, that pulls us in and it is uh it's not magnets in the ground." So, that was only part one, right? And uh you know as this continues you know around Halloween Ben got hooked on some kind of brain rot trend about ghosts being government holograms. So around Halloween, he starts going around. He's trying to enlighten people.

[00:04:17]And uh you know, he went over and he's like the the school had this like haunted you know, you know, the school there's this kind of rumor in the school like this haunted bathroom and uh he tried to debunk it by waving around his iPad with like one of those like fake ghost detector apps. But of course, like remember like these ghost apps will just be like, "Oh my god, there's a ghost, dude." So once one of the ghosts were detected, he started freaking out and then say that like the next day he came into school giving everyone these like tinfoil hats to protect them from the government ghosts or whatever. This kid's been a mess for a while is what I'm trying to say. And this, remember, all built up to him spending time and figuring out why Snow is actually fake.

[00:05:04]So yeah, let's just say that uh they were in class together. It was Ben, it was James, and they had to do a class presentation. So, this class presentation, you had to pick, you had to cover some kind of natural science thing or whatever. So, you could pick the weather, you could pick volcanoes.

[00:05:20]It was very broad. It was very general, right? And the teacher was like, "Hey, you know, pick whatever you want. You know, the presentation is going to be this Friday, and you know, the guardrails is it has to be something natural. You have to be covering something in nature. you can't do like a presentation on your favorite Star Wars character as cool as that would be. Uh but you you just need to cover something there. So, everyone kind of left class, thought all these like, you know, it's going to be a good time. Enjoyed it.

[00:05:46]James is going to do a presentation on uh he was going to do a presentation on the dinosaurs or something or some kind of prehistoric uh formation or d something like that, right? So, people were pretty excited. And this is something where Ben must have been on his iPad and went down one of those crazy internet rabbit holes of YouTube shorts being like, "Snow is government control hoax. It's to control the masses. It's not actually real. It's actually fake. It's just cybernetic cyborgs in your brain." Or something absolutely cooked like that. Like there's different levels of cooked, but this kid might be next level D1 tier one cooked, bro. Like it might be GG's well played all over for him. So anyways, let's go to the actual presentation.

[00:06:29]During the presentation, you know, people are going up there.

[00:06:33]They're, you know, attach, you know, you plug in your computer, you go through a couple slides. Some people just, you know, brought in like, you know, someone was maybe doing some rock formation, so they brought in a rock or I don't know, it's pretty standard. He goes up there, plugs in his presentation. You know, the teacher sitting there nice, kind of smiling, looking what he has to what he has to say. You know, Ben is up there trying to, you know, fiddling with his computer. was like, "Ah, finally I got it." And the first slide that comes up says, "Why snow is a government hoax to control the masses." So immediately everyone's like, "Oh, brother, this guy stinks." No, but they're just all like, "Dude, what is going on here?" Like, this might be the dumbest thing I've ever seen in my life. But you know the teacher of course you know James immediately looks over the teacher's face and he just has this kind of look of both shock disbelief but then also this look of like I think I've failed my students bro like I might be gener like I might have genuinely failed my students if for some reason my teachings have led them to believe that this is true. So he kind of had this like but here's the thing that's important. The teacher didn't immediately stop the presentation.

[00:07:44]So yeah, Ben is like, "Yes, I know this might be shocking. I know this might hurt a lot of people, but you know, I just need to tell you all the truth, and this is why Snow is a governmentcontrolled hoax to control the masses." Anyways, during his presentation, Ben hooked up his iPad to the projector and showing and he shows these like screen recordings of YouTube shorts. So, not only is he not just like linking a YouTube short, then playing it, he literally just recorded his iPad screen. So, it's like it was already a low quality video, but it was like literally 1080p.

[00:08:16]And he shows these videos where he's like, "It's these edited clips of quote unquote snow melting weirdly." Uh, which uh they were just these like old hoax videos about like flammable snow from pollution. Uh, ranting that the real snow would be like Minecraft powder and not this wet stuff. So, yeah, he basically is like shows another clip of Minecraft. This is where you know this kid is cooked. buddy actually shows a clip of Minecraft as proof that that snow that they see is like a government controlled hoax or whatever. Cuz the thing is in their town where they live, the last time they had snow was like 5 years ago. So they weren't really that sure what snow I mean they were they knew what snow was of course, but you know they didn't come from a place where snow was common. I mean I grew up in Massachusetts so up east and it would snow like crazy every single winter. So this wouldn't even if I had an iPad brain rot kid, there would be enough physical evidence that this is literally the dumbest thing ever, but they lived in a town in a city where snow was really uncommon. Every once in a while it would happen. Like when I went down to school in North Carolina for college, it never snows there, but I remember my first uh my first year there, there was a crazy snowstorm and or actually it wasn't even that crazy. They got like a quarter of an inch and the school shut down for like a week because no one knew how to drive. No one knew how to operate in snow. Similar situation here. So yeah, this kid is unironically cuz he's so brain rotted and cooked. He's showing photos of of Minecraft or videos of Minecraft snow and being like, "See, do you guys not see the proof?" And then he shows this video of just like cuz sometimes, especially if you're in big cities or if you're in a place that snows a lot, you know that after it snows like it kind of turns into slush on the site and that's always the grossest part of January and February in my opinion. The first snow is always really cool cuz it's powdery, it's beautiful, but after about like if you get too much snow, it's going to stay there for weeks as slush and super gloppy and really annoying. So, this iPad kid, Ben, was trying to prove to everyone that snow was actually a government control mechanism. And the reason why this was the case is because the snow and he showed some kind of weird video of like slop snow doesn't look like what it looks like in Minecraft. Which to me I just think is like that might might be the most brain rotted thing I've ever heard that you're using Minecraft as a comparison. Like what are you going to say that the Ender Dragon's real? Which by the way I've had a story of a kid who said that before.

[00:10:39]What were you going to say next? Like oh my god man the Ender Dragon is actually real dude. Like oh my god. Yeah. So he continues with his presentation and he said that anyone who believes in snow is a sheeple. Yes, a sheeple brainwashed by big weather. Yeah, at this point the class couldn't hold it in anymore cuz the teacher's like quiet guys, quiet. I think the teacher was going to do like almost like those little, you know, on Twitter where it's like community notes where it's like giving context or whatever. I think he was going to do his own community notes about why snow looks like like the difference between the first snow of the year and the difference between that and slush and probably also pointing out how a pixelated block game where there's the wither ender dragon a warden maybe just maybe might not be the best way to decide or the best proof point for what snow actually is.

[00:11:34]So yeah, basically that was the end of the presentation. It was literally just three slides, the intro card that said like it's for the big government, a screen recording of slush, and then a screen recording of Minecraft snow. And he was like, "See, see, you guys must see what I'm seeing." And everyone's laughing. He's like, "You guys just don't understand."

[00:11:54]Yeah. So, um, basically this kid, you know, the teacher was just like, "Hey guys, like, okay, Ben, thank you so much for your presentation, buddy." Super interesting. I do want to make a few notes that what you're seeing on screen is what we call slush. Basically, you know, when you get a ton of snow, it doesn't all evaporate and melt away within a day. A lot of it sticks around and since there's cold weather, it'll stay there. But also in bigger cities, people are walking through it. It gets kind of dirty. It has this slushy consistency. And Ben's like, "Um, yeah, but why doesn't it look like Minecraft snow?" I'm pretty sure that means it is actually uh you know a government tool that is using to control us. He's like um sure. Okay. Well guys just you know that is still snow. It's not slush. Uh so yeah the teacher gave uh um Ben a D for his assignment saying uh it was creative but it was just completely unbounded. Not true. And he gave Ben another opportunity to do a presentation. So Ben eventually did a presentation. later he did it on like something else and he was clearly like not in it. Like he was clearly like doing it so that he didn't fail the class. But this didn't stop him. So you might be thinking, "Okay, Connor, well yeah, he did a presentation about how Snow is fake and everyone laughed at him. This must be the end." But he might have been humiliated, but he was not deterred. Ben decided he was like he decided that this public humiliation that the teacher was actually an agent of the government and that all the students were brainwashed but they could be turned and that it was his moral obligation to inform them about the truth. So Ben the next day at lunch you know James and his friends are sitting there. Some of them are even still talking about how like the crazy presentation or whatever, telling the other kids who weren't in that class that they all had together about how this kid Ben did a whole presentation on how snow was fake, how he used a video of slush versus a video of Minecraft snow to say that it was actually, you know, a tool used by the government to control us. Everyone was laughing.

[00:14:06]Everyone thought it was pretty funny.

[00:14:08]Um, but that's when he sees like Ben come over to them and they're all like trying to lock in at this point. And he said, "I wanted to let you know that I am starting a club. It's called the Snow Deniers Club and we'll meet in person once a week and you can join my Discord server." And he takes out his crusty cheeto encrusted iPad, right? He's like, "Ah, you can join the server." And if you look at the server, it literally says one member because it's just Ben in this. And they're all like, "Uh, I think we're okay." And he's like, "Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Um, there's secret knowledge that I've obtained about the truth. And you guys might be still the sheeple who believe in big snow, but the truth is there's secret knowledge that only those in the snow deniers club will be informed about." So, everyone at the table denied, but Ben, unrelenting, went table to table. I was actually able to recruit a couple like the most gullible kids who were at least like, "Okay, well, I'll join just to learn what's up." Um, and so over the next couple over the next couple weeks, this cult started to grow strangely fast. Like James makes note in the very beginning, it was like one or two of like probably the most gullible andor kind of least intelligent kids um were joining it. But over time, like they would see the Snow Denire Club would always sit together at lunch.

[00:15:37]They'd have secret meetings. They would have like cryptic po cryptic posts on social media, whatever. Ben made some like Snow Deniers Club like Instagram page and he followed everyone from the school. It initially no one followed it back, but he just kept posting really kind of intriguing, alluring stuff, which here's the thing. I think this is almost more of a lesson about how like you could start a cult, have the dumbest story ever, but if you're good at marketing, people will join. I'm not going to say anything specifically, but there's definitely some groups out there who believe some pretty crazy things, but seemingly normal people, even big celebrities, might join them. You know what I'm saying? So, it's surprisingly within a couple weeks there was like 20 kids who joined. So James and his friends would like walk by, you know, some of the classrooms and during recess they would see that these kids would skip recess to watch conspiracy videos on Ben's iPad and then they would walk by and they just hear fake flakes, fake flakes being chanted by everyone. It started to turn less from like a club into like an actual cult. like this kid might have become a a cult leader and he became a cult leader over telling people that Snow is actually fake and that it's simply just a government ploy which dude if this is true if some complete knucklehead random kid named Ben can start a cult around the craziest thing ever like that kind of goes to show you that you can do whatever there's going to be at least one gullible person who will join and then there's another kind of idea in social psychology and human psychology called Social proof.

[00:17:16]Basically, social proof is like if other people are doing it, then it should be good or I should do it, too. There's this experiment that they did where they went into a mall. This was I I can't find the video, but basically they went into a mall and they put like, you know, like a rope and then they had a bunch of actors stand behind it in line. They had like 20 people line up and slowly random people without asking any questions started lining up as well. And slowly what they did is they had the actors slip out of the line until it was only a line of like 20 or 30 legit people waiting and they didn't even know what they were waiting for. And the the trick was the line didn't lead anywhere. No, there was no context and it was kind of an experiment to show and it was like anecdotal of course but it kind of showed how social proof works. So all you really need is one gullible kid a crazy idea and then slowly people start joining in which is pretty nuts. And one of the craziest things here too is uh James heard that towards the end before the cult immediately fell apart, which the cult fell apart in such a hilarious way. I I'll get to that in a second. But in the in like the weeks leading up to the demise, uh Ben dubbed himself as the high priest of the Snow Deniers Club and he started charging people Robux for premium tips about like premium secret knowledge. So if you joined the club, you would get the base level secret knowledge. But if you paid him Robux and he is the high priest of the club that he would he would bring you into the inner circle c in the inner circle of snow denier knowledge only if if and only if you were willing to truly join and show your seriousness by giving him Robux so he can buy different skins and Roblox to pay to play you know steal the brain rot like a true cult leader would.

[00:19:13]But this is where things peaked and uh things were about to go downhill.

[00:19:20]So the next day, it seems like a normal day as it always does. James goes in the school, you know, he's the whole Snow Denire cult has actually expanded to 30 members, which isn't like a huge majority of the school, but it's like enough kids where it's like, dude, what the what are you guys on, bro? Real quick, if you made it this far into the video, comment snow down below. It's a pretty obvious secret word of the day, but hey man, sometimes I'm not trying to be too creative. I love seeing the names and faces of people made it this far. I really do appreciate you guys. And if you want to support the channel, literally the best thing you can do if you're watching on Spotify, YouTube, Apple, whatever, just watch another video after this. It actually helps me out the most. Of course, like, comment, subscribe, all that kind of good stuff.

[00:19:57]Rate five stars. Anyways, so it seemed like a normal day and you know James is sitting in class and he's in class with Ben and he's like Ben is like now in this class become almost quasi the most popular kid. Most kids didn't like him but he was like the kid who had a bunch of followers surrounding him in the seats. They would spend time talking about how snow is actually fake and they started being like leaning into new conspiracy about how the sun is actually fake, the moon is made of cheese. Like it just kept on going. But that's when James is just staring out the window, totally spacing off, and that's when James sees something that totally piques his interest. You know what James sees?

[00:20:37]He sees snowflakes falling. For the first time in like 6 years, it's snowing. And because it doesn't it's really hard to snow there, it's snowing in these big fluffy flakes. So James like yells at the class, he's like, "Yo, there's snow out there." And the teachers are like, "Oh my god, guys, look. It's so pretty." Yeah. And uh it's everyone starts to get up and Ben's like, "Don't fall for it. Don't fall for it. No. No. It's fake. You don't understand." And so everyone gets up.

[00:21:10]You know, since it never snows here, like half the teachers let kids leave class early to go outside and play in the snow. And basically what happens, remember the whole premise is that snow doesn't look like snow in Minecraft. It looks like slush and it's government controlled cuz they haven't seen snow in forever. A lot of these kids don't even remember what Snow looked like or such a long time ago. So, as soon as people see that, oh, Snow actually looks like that.

[00:21:33]Everyone just leaves the cult, bro. Cuz it that was the whole premise. And Ben tries to continue, hangs on to like two more members, but within a day or two, they're gone as well. So, the funniest thing about this is a couple weeks later, Ben tries to start another cult around how the sun is actually fake. Uh, but let's just say that word got out pretty quickly that, you know, Ben is full of it. And dude, if you One thing I will say is the lesson of the boy who cried wolf plays really hard here cuz he didn't cry wolf, but he cried cyborg mega government wolf, bro. Like, yeah.

[00:22:10]So, uh, maybe the moral of the story is that Snow is real, dude. I don't know.

[00:22:15]How's it going everyone? Today we have a story time of an iPad kid who refuses to shower. This might be the stinkiest kid of all time. And you're I just prepare yourself for the levels of cringe. This is next level crazy, but leave a like on the video right now to claim your to claim your free nothing. Subscribe to the channel if you're new and like stories. And with that all being said, guys, let's just jump right into it. So, we're going to call the subscriber who submitted the story Andrew. So, this all happened one day in class. Andrew is sitting in class and he's sitting with this kid who we're going to call Ben because we always call the kid Ben. We always do. It's a thing on the channel if you haven't picked it up yet.

[00:22:57]Anyways, Ben is what one might call an iPad kid. So, I want to make it super clear. I loved my iPad growing up and I was not an iPad kid. I got outside. I liked science. I liked playing with my friends. I liked doing things. When I say iPad kid, it doesn't mean that you're on an iPad. In fact, you could literally be an iPad kid without even owning an iPad. When I say iPad kid, I mean it's the type of kid who sits there all day scrolling on Brain Rod, watching YouTube shorts 24/7, man. I mean, it's the type of kid who's just literally sitting there and just absorbing large quantities of slop every single day. And because of that, they come up with some pretty wacko ideas. Uh, such as the one in this story who believe I'm not even going to spoil it, so we're just going to get down. Anyways, so they sit down one day and they come back from break.

[00:23:54]So, you know, Andrew's coming back from winter break. He's a little bummed, of course, right? Cuz he's like, "Shoot, now I got to actually do work and I got to do things, which is oh so fun, right?

[00:24:06]and he sits down and they kind of have these uh they have these like kind of so instead of rows of individual desks uh in this classroom they have these kind of table blocks so it's like little tables and there's four people per table and there's like six of those tables. I don't know. I've been in classrooms that have been like that before. I've been in classrooms with rows of seats. I've been in classrooms with like circular desks.

[00:24:32]I mean, that was more of like a college thing. But anyways, so there's one seat left and Ben, who's in his class, is super late. Anyways, Ben gets in and or you know, class starts a couple minutes late. Ben opens the door. He's like, "Oh, so sorry." Like, "So sorry, teacher, like blah blah all that kind of stuff." And teacher's like, "Fine, just go sit down." So Ben is not looking so hot. Ben has like I'm just going to describe this kid. So, basically this kid Ben has a creeper shirt on, which by the way, I love Minecraft. Minecraft's fire. Nothing wrong with a creeper hoodie. Not a shirt, sorry, a hoodie. But the creeper hoodie is like these massive sticky stains all over it. Like, this hoodie is unironically crusty, bro. Like, this like Buddy's coming in with a crusty uh hoodie and his hair is like the definition of crazy grease. And I look, there's something where it's like if you wash your hair every day for certain hair types, that's actually bad for it.

[00:25:34]So I'm not saying like there's a little bit of natural oil in his hair. In fact, like even a little bit too much natural oil, hey man, I'm going to let it slide.

[00:25:43]Who? It's fine. But Buddy could have if Buddy was set on fire, if if there was a match lit next to Buddy's head, boom, the whole place would have exploded with the amount of oil, bro. He would have been he would have been able to supply the local McDonald's for a year for their deep fat friers for their French fries, man. He would have enough oil grease to supply them for quite a while.

[00:26:06]So he comes walking over and you know, not trying to judge a book by its cover, but maybe you can judge a candle by its smell because, you know, Andrew is sitting there or whatever. And then Ben sits down and it's almost like there's like a lag effect. There's like a lag effect of like the stink wave that comes over. So he sits down and then boom, it's like a brick hits Andrew in the face because this wave of just un undeniably terrible odor just comes powering through, smashes into Andrew's face, and he's he has to he he flinches. He recoils a little bit. He's like, "Oh my god." God, like this is actually next level terrible. You know, here's the thing. Like sometimes, you know, you go to the gym and you don't have a change of clothes, you have to go to something and it's a little tough. It's a little bit embarrassing, but like at the end of the day, it's like, you know, you got you got to do what you got to do. It's fine. But this is like next level. Like Buddy might have had a dying animal under his shirt, right? A decomposing dying animal under his shirt by the way this smell. Someone might have poured milk into his socks and shoes like a month ago and he just put them in and put his feet in and didn't notice and walk in. Like that's the level of just things are not going well. Anyways, so Andrew just is like sitting there and he has to like pull up his shirt over his nose to like breathe into his shirt cuz it's so bad. And like the other two kids at the table are just like they like scoot their chairs back. They're like, "Oh my god." Like it is genuinely terrible. Anyways, the teacher's going on about something and that's where Ben leans over. So, at this point, Andrew is like, "No, no, no, no, no." And he's like, he's like, "Andrew, Andrew, Andrew." And Andrew's like, "Yes." He's like, "Dude, I got to tell you about the craziest thing I learned on YouTube shorts a couple weeks ago." He's like, "Uh-huh."

[00:28:07]And at this point, Andrew is kind of like, "Oh god." Like, "What now?" Like, "What is this? What crazy conspiracy theories is this kid about to pedal to me? Like what nonsense? What did he see?

[00:28:18]Bro, he's like, "Dude, I don't know if you've noticed, but all the ladies in this class, dude, they're so into me right now." And this completely took Andrew off guard because one, the the ladies were clearly not interested. Guys, if I I got to give a little recommendation. If you're trying to impress the ladies man, maybe one thing I wouldn't start with is a uh weird stain crusty Minecraft hoodie with infinite stains, infinite crust that is looks like it's never been washed ever and you've had it for 25,000 years.

[00:28:58]Maybe don't start with that. Maybe also take a shower once a month.

[00:29:04]Maybe if we got to because it's looking like you're not showering at all, bro.

[00:29:08]So, let's at least take a shower. Maybe.

[00:29:11]Maybe. Maybe I'm crazy to tell you to do that, but maybe you should.

[00:29:16]In addition, maybe a little cologne could work here.

[00:29:22]But what the iPad kid's about to tell you next completely makes this all make sense. Not make sense in a, "Oh, you're right." But in a, "Oh, I see why you're so wrong" type situation.

[00:29:34]So Andrew is looking at this at Ben like, "Dude, are you nuts?" Like, "I don't think the girls like you, bro."

[00:29:42]Like, I like I'm not I'm not going to like I don't know, burst your bubble and destroy your confidence for absolutely no reason. But to say the least, Ben might not be optimizing himself to be best for the ladies. Or so we thought.

[00:29:58]So Ben is like is still leaning over.

[00:30:00]He's like, "Dude, I found out about this crazy thing. It's awesome.

[00:30:07]It's uh So, I've been looks maxing recently." And immediately Andrew is like, "Oh, brother." Yeah. So, there's this whole thing on the internet right now. It's called looks maxing where it's like you do all these things to make yourself more attractive or something like that. And some of it's pretty good like you know physical exercise, eating right, having like very basic things because here's the thing like generally the healthier you are the better looking you are relative to your baseline. I'm not saying that someone's there's a lot of like quote unquote typically attractive people that are like super unhealthy cuz they're like way too skinny or something or uh yeah. So, like I'm not saying that's a correlation that's super tight, but what I'm saying is like if you get better sleep, you go exercise, and you eat cleaner, you are going to look better than if you didn't do those things. And a relative scale, that's true generally, right? But there's also all this other stuff of like if you hit your face with a hammer, you're going to become handsome Squidward Giga Chad. I'm like I'm like guys, I don't know if that makes a lot of sense to me. I'm just being straight.

[00:31:19]I'm not sure if that makes a lot of sense. But basically, this kid, this iPad kid Ben must have gone down some crazy rabbit hole. And instead of being like, "Oh, I guess I'm going to go to the gym or I'm going to dress better or I'm going to wear cologne or I'm going to do this or I'm there's a long list of things that you can do that are super reasonable that will make you more attractive than you are now. Your your chances will just simply be better. And also, I'm going to be honest, like a lot of a lot of times if you're doing that, probably what you need is you just need more confidence. I'm going to be honest.

[00:31:57]If you're spending a little bit too much time trying to optimize every nth degree of your appearance and every quarter of everything you're doing, you're probably getting diminishing returns. Where the truth is, you just need to go out and socialize, get told no a bunch of times, get rejected a bunch of times, and just take that in the face. take that in the chin and then you're going to be like, "Hey man, you know, if I got rejected from a date or something, it's actually not that bad. Like, I survive." And that's the confidence you need. So, if you actually want advice from me, you know, just go out there and get rejected a bunch and then you'll build up the confidence to be like, "Hey, it's not that deep." And then that will actually be the best the most attractive thing about you is your confidence, right? It pulls everything together. If you stand up straight and you really don't care what they say, then they will say yes more often than not. But instead, this kid Ben starts explaining how he found he went down this rabbit hole and he found this thing called pheramone maxing where basically he's decided that back in the day cavemen didn't have access to showers.

[00:32:58]Genius, right? Caveman didn't have access to showers. And since these cavemen didn't have access to showers, you know, they were more primal and that ladies didn't realize this, but they would be secretly super attracted to anyone who is pheromone maxing like Ben.

[00:33:17]So Ben is explaining this to Andrew and uh Andrew's just looking at him like, "Dude, you might be you might be the biggest idiot of all time. Like, are you seriously saying that that you know the girls in this class like are going to be super into you because you don't take sh like is that your logic? Oh, I'm going to I'm going to you know uh uh I'm I'm I'm just not going to shower, man.

[00:33:40]They're going to love me. So, yeah, this kid genuinely believes just because he doesn't take a freaking shower, dude, that all the girls are going to be in love with him. So, Andrew looks at Ben.

[00:33:49]He's like, "Oh, okay." And he's like, "Yes." And by the way, I know this is true because when I walked by Sarah, Ava, Lily, and Emily today into class, they all turned and looked at me and they all had a reaction. I am attention maxing and pheromone maxing, and it is proof that it works. Uh, okay, let's be honest. In reality, he probably walked by them. And the tidal wave of this putrid, rancid, decaying germs infestation just went by them and they're like, "Oh my god, is there like a dead cow in the vent? Is is there just like a stink bomb that someone left like dropped off right here?

[00:34:36]I is like is did a bug crawl into my nose, explode, and decompose and I didn't realize like what is going on?"

[00:34:44]Yeah. So, they all Yeah, they all did pay attention to Ben. Don't get me wrong. Like, Ben got a ton of attention from these girls, but let's be honest, the attention was, "Oh my god, that guy smells so bad." Which, uh, I don't know if you guys need to be geniuses or you guys need to be uh absolute 10 out of 10. Uh, you understand how to talk to the ladies. you could sell a course on it level to understand that you know if girls are paying attention to you cuz you smell terrible and that's the only reason why you're getting attention. You might want to you might want to go back to the drawing board on that one buddy.

[00:35:18]You might want to go back and figure this one out. Yeah. So sure enough, right, Ben is super confident and he goes on to tell Andrew that at lunch today he is going to ask out Ava. So Ava is the girl. We're introducing a new character. A is a girl in her class who's like the you're very standard uh stereotypical like pretty popular mean, right? That combination, right? I mean, you see that all the time in in middle school, high school, even in college, right? And I'm sorry. Sorry, guys. I have to break it to you. That kind of archetype still exists beyond high school. It's not as powerful as it was in high school, right? But if you guys have ever seen the mean the movie Mean Girls, I actually I actually think it's not too bad of a movie myself. But uh I mean that that movie actually does represent fairly well. Obviously Mean Girls is is comedic and it's an exaggeration, but it actually does a fairly good job of representing it. So they had a very similar situation. There was this girl in their grade. Her name was Ava and she was like her parents were like, you know, the the richest people in town. So they had the big fancy house. And Ava's always been like super mean and everything, but a bunch of girls are like, "Oh my god, she's super mean and her parents are super rich, that must mean that she's awesome, and because I am don't do anything else in my life besides being a social climber, I need to hang out with her." Yeah. So, it was one of those situations. Um, and when Andrew heard that Ben was going to ask Ava out at lunch in front of everyone, he already knew this was about to be a disaster. cuz this girl was not known for being uh maybe courteous and would have been like, "Hey, Ben, can we talk about this somewhere else?" This girl is not going to hold back and it's about to be bad.

[00:37:02]Yeah. So, let's just say that's not going to be the greatest idea of all time. Um anyways, so you know, Andrew is told this and Ben just kind of looks at him and is like smiles and he's like, "What? Are you jealous, buddy?"

[00:37:17]And he's like, "Dude, can you imagine that this kid tells you something so incredibly delusional and just insane and then he looks at you and he's just smiling?" He's like, "What? Are you jealous? What do you mean? Am I jealous?

[00:37:33]I'm just taking a second to process the crazy, beyond crazy thing you just told me. Bro, I need a moment to take it all in because it is too nuts. It is too crazy. But Andrew is like, honestly, he's like, "Yeah, man. I know you're gonna get her. So, good luck, man." You know, it's uh let the best man win.

[00:37:57]Which Andrew, when he submitted this story to me, which by the way, if you want to submit a story to me, go to Instagram, look up Connor Pugs. Uh the guy with 1.2 mil, who has my face because that's me. Message me your story. He basically said, "Yeah, was this kind of a little bit of a not the nicest thing?" Because he's knowingly leading Ben into his demise. Sure. But also, this kid was being super pretentious and like Andrew doesn't owe him anything. So, I don't know if it's the nicest thing to do, but I also think it's totally fine. Anyways, you hear the lunch bell ring cuz it was lunch immediately after that class. Andrew gets up, walk into lunch, and his friend uh his friend uh Will, who's down the hall, has another class. They always sit together at lunch. And Andrew waits for a second, and Will gets out of class, and they start walking there. Andrew basically fills in Will about everything that just transpired. And Will's like, "Dude, like that's crazy. Like, we have to see this." So immediately they go in and they It's a big launch table. It's big lunchroom, big cafeteria. They're like getting in line. Once they get their food, they kind of scope out where Ava and like the popular girl group's going to be. They're not going to like sit at her table or anything. She probably look at them like, "Oh my god, what are you nerds doing here?" or whatever, right? Cuz if you weren't the quarterback on the football team, then you were therefore a nerd. It was either or. You're either the star quarterback or you're a nerd in Ava's world. Very much either or. No in between. One or the other. Anyways, sure enough, right, they scope out a table and they get one right behind Ava's table. So, they're able they both it's a little weird because it's just the two of them at this table and they're both at first they were kind of bickering over who is going to be sitting on the side facing Ava's table. And they eventually said screw it, like whatever, we're both going to be sitting on one side. So, super weird because when you sit down with your friends at a lunch table or something, one person sits on one side, the other person sits on the other side, obviously, but they're both sitting on the same side, which is super weird, but no one really clocks it or flags it or anything like that. Um, and it was it might have been a little strange at the moment, but it was not as bad as what's about to come. Yeah. So, sure enough, they're sitting there, it's uh Andrew, it's his friend Will. They're watching and you can just see and Ava's actually facing them, which is perfect because they get a front row view into her reaction. Sure, this is a little mean of them to do, but also, dude, I'm not going to lie, if I had a long if I had to come back from winter break, I'm already kind of bummed about having to do that and I get a little bit of entertainment from this kid who's kind of being a jerk to me in class and is going to learn his lesson. It's not like something bad's going to happen. But anyways, they see him. They see Ben walking in and Ben is like strutting in, but he actually has good posture. Like he's doing a little bit of what I said in the beginning when I said, "Guys, if you really want to be attractive like and attract other people, all you got to be a lot of it is confidence." I know some of you guys be like, "That's cope."

[00:41:04]If you're ugly, bro, all relative. But one of the biggest things you can one of the biggest things you can do to improve your chances, I'm not saying if you're a two, you're going to become a 10. I'm not saying that. what I'm saying relative to you, you are going to absolutely improve your chances. If you're just more of a a confident, not cocky, not arrogant, not a jerk, but just like I it's one of the lessons in negotiations because if you guys don't know, one of the main things I do and why I've been gone from YouTube for so long is because I run a business and a lot of what I'm involved in is the deal side. And one lesson in negotiations is that if you truly can walk away from the deal and be fine, like, hey, it doesn't have to happen if it's not on my terms, you will always have the upper hand.

[00:41:47]It's the same thing here. If you go up to someone, you're like, hey, you know, I'd love to go on a date with you. But, you know, if you say it in a way where it's like, I don't care if it doesn't happen, you will be significantly more likely to do it. So, Ben was almost he was doing that right. But the problem is, you can't do one thing right and then also smell like a rodent crawled up your butt and died. You can't do those two things at the same time, guys. Like, come on now. So, he's strutting in. He's strutting in. He's like, "Uh-huh.

[00:42:13]Uh-huh. Yeah. This is me. I'm Ben. Yeah, I know. You see me? I see you. Uh-huh.

[00:42:19]Yeah." And he goes up and he's like puts his like he's very like cocky. Like puts his hand on the table. And you can just see cuz Ava like didn't didn't even register that this kid exists cuz also remember the smell is like floating behind him. So it took a second. Puts his hand on the table and she looks up at him with just this is pure look of disgust. Ava is not the the hero in the story either. Guys, come on now. But is telling it how it happened and he's like so ladies and then all of a sudden in unison they all like pull up their shirts. They're like oh my god. Oh my god, what is that smell? He's like, "Oh, you noticed I've been pheromone maxing lately." You like? And Ava just looks at him with this like the biggest look of disgust and just hatred, bro. Like, it's crazy. I mean, she probably should You should always be nice to someone else.

[00:43:13]You know, they might be going through something. You never know what someone's always treat people with kindness and respect. Even when people come to you and they're not super respectful, if you can just like be the bigger man, sometimes there's situations where you got to hit back with disrespect. I totally agree. But nine times out 99 out of 100 times, if you're the bigger person, you look cool and you win that.

[00:43:32]You win in most situations. So that's my recommendation, but I'm just going to tell you what happened. And Ava looks up at him. And she's about to absolutely destroy this kid with the next words that come out of her mouth. And it's crazy. Real quick, if you made it this far into the video, I want you to comment floor down below. Yes, f L O O R. I'm looking at my floor right now.

[00:43:52]That'll be the secret word of the day.

[00:43:55]So, that'll be the secret word of the day. Comment that down below if you made it this far. I love seeing the names and the faces of people who made it this far into the video because the best way to support the channel is simply by watching the video throughout basically the entire video. I know it's not over yet, and there's a crazy She's about to own this kid. It's insane. But I just want to say thank you to everyone who's been supporting the channel recently.

[00:44:16]Uh, Prime Connor Pugs is coming back in 2026. I had to take a little bit of a little bit of time off for various reasons, but we're back. We're the 2022 2023. I love seeing all the faces, the new faces. Welcome. I'm so excited. And it's also exciting to see all the people who watched me a couple years ago. If you want to support me getting back into the algorithm, the second best thing you can do besides watching this video if you're on Apple Music, YouTube, Spotify, is just go and watch another one of my videos after this. Absolutely helps me out. Thank you guys so much once again, bottom of my heart. So excited to be back. And with that being said, Ava looks at this kid with just this look of disgust and she's like like, "You smell terrible." and she's like holding her nose and he's like h you know a little bit of banter back and forth all the looks Maxer told me this would happen you know you know girls always say stuff like that when they really mean the opposite of course so Ava I'm going to I'm going to bless you with a wonderful opportunity and he's like kind of like shifting around walking with like hand on his hip kind of swaying his hips a little bit like not even like being he's not even being confident he's just being weird at this point he's like so you me Friday night movies dinner, uh, Lamborghinis, Rolls-Royce, um, entertain. Um, he's just saying everything he sees on TikTok. Uh, Skippy toilet. No, no. He's just like, "You, me, movies, dinner, you know, maybe we're hanging out afterwards. Uh, this Friday, thoughts? I already know your answer, but" And she's like stands up and she's like, "I would never." And this is where like Andrew and like Will like jump back and they like look at each other. You know that like uh that gif of like Joe Rogan when he was commentating on like the UFC fight and the gift of him like freaking out be like, "Oh my god." He looks at his co-host. Same reaction from uh Andrew Wil cuz she's like, "I will never ever go on a date with you at at least like I will never go on a date with you." Like especially someone who never showers.

[00:46:21]And this point she's shouting. So, like all these tables around start looking over and Ben's like, "Okay, I'll take that as a rain check." Um, so maybe the week after she's like, "No." And Ben's like, "All right, you know, I I'll I'll hit you up over messages. I'll I'll send you I'll send you I'll slide into your DMs on Instagram. We can figure it out there if you don't want to like if you don't want to do it in public." She's like, "No, no, no." And he's like, "All right, I'll see you later then." And he like walks out. But you can totally tell that like Buddy was a little shaken by this. Next day in class, Ben once again sits down at Andrew's table and he smells remarkably better. And I'm not saying he smells good, but I think he took a shower and he's sitting there and yeah, sure enough, you know, Andrew isn't going to be a jerk and say anything. So Ben says, "Yeah, so I guess Ava's dating someone." She was like, "Oh my god, like you're so handsome and sexy, but like dude, I'm dating someone right now. I'm so sorry. Like I'm probably going to break up with him soon. you know, I'd love to go on some dates with you and all that kind of stuff, but like I just can't do it right now. Like, I I can't cheat on anyone. You have to understand I have my morals. And I was so like, oh my god, I totally get it. Like, so embarrassing of me. I didn't know you have a boyfriend. I respect bro code.

[00:47:32]Like, totally get it. Maybe in another life, another universe. Maybe in a little bit of time we can go on a date, but just know it's an open invitation, girl.

[00:47:40]And Andrew's just staring at him like, "Buddy, if only you knew I was sitting one foot away from you, saw the whole thing go down, and know that that is 100% cap.

[00:47:54]Bro, are you serious?" How's it going everyone? Today we have a story time of a Roblox kid who smashes the subscribers's iPad, completely destroying it, all because he wanted to play Roblox, but the subscriber had to do work on it. It's a crazy story. You won't believe the plot twist at the end.

[00:48:11]With that being said, leave a like on the video right now to claim your free nothing. Subscribe to the channel if you're new and like stories. That being said, let's just jump right into it. So, we're going to call the subscriber who submitted this story, Ryan. And anyways, Ryan had a little cousin who we're going to call Ben. And Ben was a kid who was obsessed with Roblox. And there's nothing wrong to be obsessed with Roblox. It's a great game the same way that I love Minecraft. I played it for a long time since I was a kid and I still play it to this day. When I say Roblox kid, I mean a kid who is crazy obsessed.

[00:48:45]Like he has an addiction to Roblox where if he goes one millisecond without playing steal the brain rot or blocks fruits or something that he is going to go crazy and insane in his little brain, bro. But he might as well also be called an iPad kid. But for the sake of this, he's a Roblox kid. So this all happened one Thanksgiving.

[00:49:05]So, the subscriber Ryan was having Thanksgiving over at his house. Ryan was around 20 at the time. So, he was in college, but he was back for Thanksgiving. Ryan also worked a somewhat full-time job. It was remote, and he was able to make the hours work while he was at college. You know, they were it was one of those type of jobs where a lot of it was uh away, like you could do it whenever. It was asynchronous. There was a few meetings here and there, but a lot of the work could be done whenever. So co, so you know, Ryan not only was paying for his own college, but would take his classes, basically get straight A's, was a great student, and at night he would spend that time doing his basically full-time job. So he's a full-time college student, full-time employer, still had some f some, you know, time to hang out with friends and family, but overall very hardworking kid. So he comes back for Thanksgiving and one of the work devices he has is this iPad. So some people just use an IP iPad to play video games and watch YouTube shorts, which is totally fine. It's all good for that.

[00:50:09]But he used it primarily as a work tool and he didn't have a laptop because he, you know, wanted to save up and an iPad was just as functional and it did most of what you need to do and it was less expensive than equivalent computers. So anyways, he goes back home for Thanksgiving. He's with his mom and they're hosting Thanksgiving. So, the people that are coming over, it's his grandfather, it's a couple other family members, but the important thing is it's aunt, his uncle, and his little cousin Ben. Ben was always a bit of a spoiled child. It's not that he was a spoiled rich kid. His, you know, his aunt wasn't super low. They had a decent amount of money. Like, they were on the they they were like the upper and the like the income percentile. But when I say he was like a spoiled kid, I mean his mom let him get away with anything. There was no boundaries, no rules. And I might as well also be calling him an iPad kid because he was basically raised on his iPad and his electronics. And an important detail is this kid was obsessed with Roblox. Not in a way that like, hey, I love this game, but a way that like he had an an unhealthy addiction with it. Anyways, so Ben, the aunt, whatever, they come in, you know, they come to the house. Uh, you know, the subscriber Ryan comes downstairs, you know, greets them all very happy.

[00:51:26]It's not like, you know, Ben is like 13, so it's not like him and Ben are gonna have great deep conversations at the same level, but, you know, he likes the kid. It's family. This kid's always been a little spoiled, a little bit annoying, but it's like, hey, it's one night for Thanksgiving. It's really, honestly, not that deep. So, they come in and, you know, they're Chad and whatever. And, you know, Ryan's aunt says hello to his mom cuz their sisters have a good life.

[00:51:48]They embrace each other. They say hello.

[00:51:50]It's your standard Thanksgiving whatever. And so, sure enough, right, they're staying on the second floor. So, their house is two floors. So, the the base floor was like you got the living room, you got the kitchen, you got another room with like a TV in it or something. You walk up the stairs and there's a bunch of bedrooms. So, they're walking up because Ben, his aunt, and his uncle, uh, all were staying, you know, over for the night and then they were driving out the next day. So they were walking up and you know kind of the subscriber Ryan was showing them to their rooms and you know Ben was walking by and the subscriber Ryan left his iPad on the desk cuz he was in the middle of some work and he was in the process of like explaining to them like hey so excited for you guys to be here. Um you know my job is fairly demanding. It's all asynchronous but there's a lot of things I got to do. I'm going to spend a little bit of time on doing some work for my job and then after that I will be down before Thanksgiving dinner. And if I time things correctly and really focus and lock in, I will be able to spend the entire night with you guys, dinner, whatever. I just need to put aside some time to do some work. So obviously the aunt uncle were like totally understood.

[00:52:57]Like we think it's so cool that you're working a full-time job while also being a college student. like and the uncle was joking like I was struggling just to like you know I was struggling to you know make it through my classes you know and also being in my fraternity let alone work a job. So so son I have a lot of respect for you and everything that you do. So they're walking by the room and that's when Ben sees the iPad. He's like iPad I can play Roblox. He's like Ryan like like I I I got to use that iPad. And Ryan looks at him. like, "Hey, like usually I would be cool like you can use the iPad or whatever and maybe you can use the iPad honestly once we're done. When I'm done after dinner, you can play on it if you'd like. As long as your aunt says that's okay." And he's like, "Dude, like I I need to play Roblox now." He's like, "I'm sorry, I just can't do that. Like, I have work that I have to do, but look, I'll finish up my work and then I'll let you use the iPad. Does that sound fair?" So Ben kind of looks at him and gives this like little timid nod. So, at that point, Ryan thought, "Okay, end the story."

[00:54:00]Thank you guys so much for watching. I'm just kidding. The story clearly does not end there. You can tell by the title of the video and how I started this. The story clearly does not end there.

[00:54:09]Anyways, so Ryan goes into his room. The rest of the family goes back down and he's doing work for about 10 to 15 minutes. He's locked in. He has his like headphones on, listening to some like kind of background music to focus like your lock in playlist, whatever. And uh he like he's like in between songs or whatever and he hears this little scuttle up the stairs and he was able to hear it cuz it was like one song was ending and one was starting. So he takes off his headphones. He's like, "Oh, someone's coming up." And he's like, "Is this, you know, aunt or uncle telling me I need to come down to help my mom with something? Is what's going on?" And he kind of hears the door creek open and Ben walks in. He's like, "Hey, what's up, man? How's it going?" He's like, "Good, I guess."

[00:54:53]and kind of just sits there and and you know Ryan's mind he's like hey man it's cool to hang out with you but like I just said I needed to lock in and focus get some work done finish all that stuff up and then I can hang out with you if you're just chilling here like dude that's going to make things complicated.

[00:55:12]Yeah. So he was just like, "Dude, if you're going to be sitting in here, like I guess that's fine." But Ben is just awkwardly standing there. Like clearly he's not like, "Oh, I want to go hang out with my cousin." Which at first Ryan was like, "Oh, maybe he likes me and he wants to hang out with me and like maybe I can do some of this work later." He was like, "You know what? Maybe I'll stay up late tonight and like after everyone else goes to sleep just I don't know, get a little bit less. Like if if my cousin, right, really wants to hang out with me, you know what? this is one of the few opportunities. But that was not the case. Ben is standing there and he's like, "So, when are you going to be done with the iPad?" And Ryan's like, "Yeah, I mean, I'm going to need at least Immediately."

[00:55:52]Ryan's like, "Oh, he was not here for me. Never mind." Like, "Never mind, bro." Like, "Yeah, okay. This kid is not here for me." But he's like, "I'm going to need like another like probably hour or so to wrap up some work. Maybe a little bit longer. Like, I'll try to be really quick. Try to do this quick." And then like maybe you can even get some iPad time in before dinner. And Ben's like, "Dude, I just dude you don't understand. I need to play Roblox right now. You don't understand. Like I need to play steal the brain rot right now on Roblox. I just need to do it."

[00:56:28]And the subscriber is like, "Okay, I don't know if you need to, but I'm super cool to give you the iPad. Look, I'll even download Roblox right now. And he goes looks up Roblox. He's like, "This is downloading the background.

[00:56:42]It's not even ready yet. I need to finish up my work. Like, I will let you know when it's done." And Ben's like, "Okay." And he doesn't leave. And Ryan in his head's like, cuz he just has this kid sulking in the corner just like kicking dust, just like looking around, poking around stuff while he needs to lock in. And like that is not a conducive environment to really focus in. really get what you need to get done. Like it's just it just really isn't, dude. So he's like, "Okay, whatever." He puts on his headphones, goes back in his iPad, is doing the things, and he's like 5 minutes into work. He's back into a flow. He's in his flow state, doing what he needs to do when he feels a tap on his shoulder. So he takes off his headphones. He's like, "What's up, man?" He's like, "Are you done yet?" And Ryan's like, "Ben, I'm not going to be done for a little bit.

[00:57:35]when I'm done, I will come let you know and I'm gonna be done as soon as I can and then you can play all the Roblox you want. He's like, fine. Like Buddy is actually being so inconsiderate when you know his older cousin is like, I'm doing work cuz I have a job and not only am I doing work and having a job, but I'm going to do this faster and do it as quickly as possible so that you can play a video game. You can play a video game when you're here at Thanksgiving with your family. Like, you don't see me. The last time you saw me was almost two years ago. You know, you haven't seen your uncles, your grandfather, whatever, your whole family. You should go down there, hang out with them. You shouldn't even be playing Roblox, dude. Like, you can take a night off. Like, you can seriously take a night off. But anyways, he's like puts back in his headphones and Ben storms out of the room. So, Ryan's like, "Okay, good." Like, that's fine. like he probably went downstairs.

[00:58:34]He's not going to like lurk around. He maybe thought that like he'd be able to like pressure me into the iPad early, but like I'm not gaving to some random 13-year-old kid cuz he wants to play Roblox. Like come on, dude. Sure enough, he's going along doing like Ryan's getting into a flow state. He's about 30 minutes in and he feels he has to go pee. So he's like, "All right, I got to go to the bathroom." He puts his iPad down and goes up to go to the bathroom.

[00:58:59]and goes in the bathroom, whatever, and he hears like noises of people walking, but he's assuming it's like, okay, maybe the aunt uncle came up to put something in their room or they're taking a a break or something or maybe they're changed. Like, who knows? So, he walks back into his room and that's when he sees Ben holding the iPad. He's like, "Dude, I'm not done yet." And Ben just kind of looks at him. This kind of look of like he was caught and he's like, "Dude, just give me back the iPad. like I just I'm I'm 15 minutes and I'm done.

[00:59:29]He's like, "No, I'm gonna play Roblox."

[00:59:32]And Ben's like, "No, sorry." The subscriber Ryan's like, "No, I need to finish this. Like, this is my iPad. This is the only thing I can do work on.

[00:59:40]Like, you're going to get this super soon." So, Ben starts like walking around the room a little bit with the iPad. He's like, "But I want to play Roblox now. I think that's what you don't understand."

[00:59:53]And this the subscriber Ryan's like, "Dude, I get it. You want to play freaking Roblox, but I need to do my work." This is the first time like Ryan's being a little snippy. Ryan was so nice and generous and considerate for so long. He was like, "I will do my work early. I will get it done faster so that you can play stupid freaking Roblox at Thanksgiving, buddy. I will do whatever it takes for you." And even with all of that, this kid is still super inconsiderate, being a big jerk. So Ryan's like, "No, I'm going to need this back." So he starts walking up to Ben to like grab the iPad. And Ben like pulls it away and it's like, "No." And Ben's like Ryan's like, "Dude, this is Thanksgiving. I had a long day. I'm 15 minutes away from being done with my work. Just please give me the iPad." And Ben's like, And for a second, it looked like he was considering. Maybe he was thinking, maybe he was like, "Maybe I'll be a good cousin today. I've made a mistake by trying to grab this early, but maybe we can reconcile. I can give this back to him. I'll go I'll apologize. I'll go downstairs and when I when my cousin comes downstairs, we'll have a wonderful discussion at the Thanksgiving table and I won't even ask for the iPad. In fact, I will engage everyone in conversation, speaking about what I'm up to, learning about them, listening, and having a further bond with my family. That of course did not happen. So the iPad kid is like he just turns around and like runs out the door and slams it behind him and Ryan's like, "Oh my god." And he starts going after he's doesn't run out, but he like power walks out. He's like, "Ben, you have to give me that iPad." So Ben is standing at the top of the stairs. So remember the layout of the house is like it's two stories. There is the living room, there's the kitchen, the dining room, there's a set of wooden stairs up that goes to where all of the bedrooms are. So Ben is standing at the top of the stairs and he's like, "No." And at this point, like other people downstairs were kind of hanging out in the living room. And even at this point, you know, uh the subscriber Ryan's mom is taking a break from kitchen. So they're kind of looking up. They're like, "Hey guys, what's going on?" And Ben's like, "He won't let me have the iPad. He won't let me have the iPad." And he's standing at the top of the stairs. And Ryan's like, "You can have the iPad when I'm done with my work. I only have 15 more minutes. just hand it back to me and I'll give it to you shortly. And he's like, "No, I want to play Roblox now."

[01:02:22]So, there's a bit of tension and suddenly like I think one of the like the grandfather or something is like, "Ben, like you should give that back.

[01:02:30]Like, that's not yours. Like, you know, you're taking your your cousin's property. You shouldn't be doing that."

[01:02:37]He's like, he's like, "If I can't play Roblox, then you can't do your work."

[01:02:42]And Ryan's like, "Just what? What do you mean? Just give me the iPad. So Ben lifts the iPad above his head and Ryan's like, "Whoa, whoa, whoa. What are you doing?" And before he could even reason with the kid, he like forcefully throws it on the first step. And you can just hear it's like I I don't know if you've ever seen like an Apple device, like when it falls and just hits the wrong way and shatters, you just hear that noise right away. You could hear the crack and you could just tell. And not only did it hit one stair, but it almost like comically went boom boom boom boom boom boom, hitting again and again and again until it tumbled towards the bottom of the stairs. It was dead silent. Everyone was just looking at the iPad and it landed face up and was clearly destroyed. Real quick, if you made it this far into the video, uh the secret word of the day is iPad. I know, not super creative, but com comment iPad down below. I just like seeing the names and the faces of people who made it this far into the video as I really do appreciate you guys. I mean, watching the videos throughout almost all the video gives a lot of watch time, which is helpful for the channel. We're trying to bring Prime Connor Pugs back in 2026, and the best way you can help support that is after this video, watch another video. If you're on Spotify or YouTube, just watch another story. It's a binge session where you watch a bunch in a row. The algorithms love it, and I really would appreciate it. Thank you guys once again. So exciting to be back and it's a pleasure to tell you guys stories. Anyways, so dead silent and Ryan very calmly walks by the kid. At this point, Ben is like I think he kind of realized he messed up. He's dead silent. He's just looking at his feet.

[01:04:22]He's like looking at his hands or whatever, just looking down. So he walks down the stairs and every like aunt and uncle or whatever are just kind of standing there in silence. He picks up the iPad, totally ruined, taps the power button a couple times. It's just not working. And he's like, "Well, this is the only way I can do work." He's like, "I don't have a backup computer." He's like kind of angry at this point, understandably, right? He's like, "This is the only way I can do my work, and if I don't get my work in, then I lose my job, and how else am I going to pay for college?" It's just dead silent. And at this point, the aunt is like, "Oh man, I'm so sorry about that." like, you know, my boy can sometimes be, you know, it can be a little rash. The subscriber looks up at his aunt. He's like who?

[01:05:07]He's kind of liked his aunt. He's like, she's like a little weird, but like he's like a little rash. Like this is like I need to get this replaced and fast. And she's like, "Yeah, like I heard new iPads are like like there's a deal going on at Apple where it's only like a couple hundred and it's not too bad."

[01:05:25]and he's like, "Okay." Like, "Yeah, but I need to do this stuff really soon, so I'm going to have to go out of my way to get a new iPad shortly." So, he's kind of looking at his aunt like, "You know, there is an Apple store that's not that far away.

[01:05:42]Maybe before you guys leave tomorrow in the morning, you know, we could go there together and like you could get me a new iPad." Cuz her son broke his iPad. And the aunt's like, "What do you mean?"

[01:05:54]She's like, "Like like you you want me to buy you a brand new iPad?" And he's like, "Look, like I need this for work. Your son destroyed it. It clearly wasn't an accident. I mean, we all saw what happened. He went to the top of the stairs. He yelled, "If I can't have the iPad, then neither can you." And he purposely smashed it. And she's like, "It was a heat in the- moment thing. Like he didn't really mean to do it." And he's like, "H, like how would you how would you discern the difference between doing that and really mean to do it?" Would he have to spell out like I am lifting the iPad above my head and I'm going to throw it really hard so it breaks? Like does Buddy have to be giving live commentary for that to be considered? Like like that's not how the court of law here works. And there's all this kind of tension. The aunt is like, "No, like I'm not going to pay for And she starts saying like that the subscriber should have been better at, you know, looking after his own stuff and like having a young kid in there.

[01:06:53]Something was bound to be broken. This kid's 13. I'm sure a lot of you guys listening are 13. Maybe some of you guys are even younger. Like would you do this? And if you're older, think back to when you were 13. Would you do this? I know I wouldn't. I would be petrified. I I mean I mean I was also a super rule following kid, but still. So there's this whole thing, you know, the grandfather comes in and like goes over to the aunt because that's his daughter.

[01:07:21]It's like, you know, Sandra, you know, your son did break his iPad and that's not just like some toy he has. It is he does need it for his work. Probably it's a good idea to go to the Apple store tomorrow. And the moment the I was like, I'm not doing that. like he should have looked after and there's this whole thing and the subscriber is like, "Fine, I'm just going to go to my room. Tell me when it's time for dinner." So, the subscriber walks by, Ryan goes up to his room. He's super upset. Um, and he's like on his phone looking like he has a friend nearby and texts him, tells him the whole thing and says, "Yo, do you mind if I stay with you tonight?" Like, I'm just so upset. And his friend's like, "Dude, 100%. Come over whenever."

[01:07:58]So, Brian goes downstairs, they have Thanksgiving dinner. It's super awkward.

[01:08:03]Ben is like super quiet, looking down.

[01:08:06]Ryan is just like not making eye contact with his aunt, with his like with his little cousin Ben. It's just a really weird vibe. And after that, like they're about to go sit down, whatever. And Ryan like tells his mom like, "Hey, I think I'm going to I think I'm going to go to my friend's house. Like I'm just pretty upset." She's like, "Sweetie, I totally get it. Like the fact even here Thanksgiving dinner, like I appreciate that." He's like, "Mom, you worked for like 2 days to make this dinner. It was awesome. Thank you again, but it's like I just got to go and cool off." And she's like, "Totally get it." So, he walks out, he leaves, he doesn't really tell everyone, "I'm storming out and leaving." He's at his friend's house, whatever. They're chilling, playing a little bit of Xbox, whatever. And his phone starts blowing up and he picks it up and it's like from an unknown number, but it's clearly his aunt. He just doesn't text his aunt. His aunt's like, "I can't believe that like you'd go ahead and ruin Thanksgiving over such a tiny mistake that my son made if you think that I'm going to pay for your brand new iPad. You're crazy." So, he just doesn't respond to those. And she keeps texting like ignoring a family member. Like, that's insane. I guess you hate your family. You don't care about family. Just all this incredibly crazy stuff. So, Ryan's texting back and forth a little bit with his mom. She's like, "Did you get there safe?" She's like, he's like, "Yeah, I'm here right now."

[01:09:25]Takes both him with his friend. He's like, "I'm so sorry." Like, "I'm going to talk to my sister tonight a little bit later on." Anyways, Ryan goes to bed, wakes up the next day, and there's a mis call from his aunt. He's like, "Fine." Picks up the phone. He's like, "Hey." And she's like, "Look, um, I'm going to I'm going to drive over to where you are. Uh, do you mind if you just like if I can talk to you?" And Ryan's like, "Sure thing." Hangs up the phone, waits around. He's having a little bit of breakfast at his friend's house and that's when he gets a text saying, "I'm here." So, he goes to his friend, dabs him up. He's like, "Yo, dude. Thanks so much for the last minute crash uh on Thanksgiving night, too.

[01:10:02]Really means a lot." He's like, "Dude, 100%. I miss not like I miss us not hanging out as much." Cuz they they go to college in different colleges and different states. They used to be super tight in high school. And he's like, "Dude, 100% same. Like, you should really come up to Blank University. I think you'd love it. Like, you can stay on my floor, whatever." And he's like, "Dude, same here." gets up, walks outside, and he sees his aunt kind of looking at him, does a little smile and a wave, and he does a little smile and wave back. He sits in the front seat, and she's like, "Look, the way I acted last night. It's crazy.

[01:10:34]I'm sorry." She said, "It's not an excuse, but you know, I am Look, I'm a little bit on edge. My emotions are a little bit all over the place. Now, I don't don't go around telling the whole family this, but I think it's pretty likely that uh your uncle and I are getting a divorce, and that's been really weighing on me. And I think I just wanted like a perfect Thanksgiving, and you know, my son's been a wreck, and uh he's he's always been a mess. And you know, Ryan laughs a little bit like, "Yeah, he can be a lot sometimes." She's like, "Look, let's go to the Apple store. I owe you this. Like, no questions. Um, thanks for sitting at Thanksgiving day uh dinner. Thanks for picking up my phone call. It's like we cool. He's like, "Yeah, it's cool." They go to the Apple store, picks out something. She doesn't just go to the discount bin and get the most discount thing ever. She gets like a standard like iPad, whatever. Uh, she doesn't really have that money problems or anything, so she kind of pays for it no problem. She should pay for it regardless, right? Or have her son work summer jobs to pay it off or something.

[01:11:35]I don't know. And on the drive back, she's like, "Man, how how am I supposed to control my kid?" And Ryan's like, "Dude, I don't know. Look, parenting can be hard. Maybe just uh put a little bit more boundaries on his screen time, I'd say. Like, I think it might be you might be going a little crazy with the amount of YouTube and Roblox he's doing." She's like, "Yeah, I always tell him get the get off his computer, but you know, he doesn't listen." She's like, "Hey, next time we're at a family thing, maybe Ben's going to walk out and he's going to be some nice little kid who's all these manners and all that kind of stuff." And he's like, "Yeah, you know, that'd be cool. I'm rooting for you."

[01:12:13]And she's like, "Hey, I'm sorry about this." Uh, I hope we're cool. Ryan's like, "Look, absolutely. Like, the fact that you said I'm sorry and then bought me the iPad, what else could I ask for?

[01:12:23]Of course, we're good." Anyways, Ryan gets a new iPad. It takes like a couple like an 30 minutes to set it up or whatever and do all that kind of jazz.

[01:12:30]But uh yeah, moral of the story, doesn't matter how much you like Roblox, do not smash someone else's iPad. I hope that's very obvious. And uh I'll see you guys in the next story. Peace.
