0:00 [Music] uh so a father is very ashamed of his son sorry [Laughter] allergies allergies the frito dust got in my nose that's like father's day i thought i hit a dark spot in my life oh father uh so a father is very very very very ashamed of his son what happened why is he ashamed wow that's it is it because his son came out as gay and his dad doesn't accept it no why would that happen that's true it's a new era what his dad's getting is a closet gay and he's in a kevin spacey movie is that it no aggressive that's cool that's cool no

0:51 the answer is no uh the sun is a shame oh it's an asian family and he got a c on his report card it is an asian family is there a son his son is roommates with two chicks and he's wondering why he never had a threesome with them go fish because that's actually real that's what his dad told him yeah my dad told me uh that i was gay because i had two girl roommates and then i didn't have a threesome with them yeah you ████ you are that's what he said damn dude he's projecting hard huh yeah help with you dude i don't know missed opportunity so why didn't you yeah what happened well that boyfriend i think oh oh so i guess you did too your dad was right it's so limitations he's not a go-getter so roadblocks block your road

1:42 or i was just gay he was right uh a uh father in china who apparently tried to kill himself said that he was ashamed that his son was still single at the age of 29. wait so he tried to kill himself because his son was still single he collapsed at a train station and then told everyone that it was a suicide attempt um well he survived what was thought to be a suicide attempt based on the people who saw he laid himself on a train tracks yeah he survived that oh for that reason huh that's great 29 is not that ████ the father that's all i gotta say i don't know yeah i don't know about that you can go die so he so he handed he should have finished his job he handed a note to a guards to a group of guards at the shanghai railway station on january the 22nd and said he had just overdosed on a medication then he fainted on the spot and the note addressed to his son

2:33 as a goodbye now he wrote that he lived a life of shame because his son had not yet started a family for the report people of my age in my village have all have children they all have grandchildren but you're 29 and have achieved nothing right what in the note if he says in my village i think that's where the thing stops yeah the guy's from a village what's he doing in shanghai yeah the world moved on yeah it's a shanghai village he also reportedly thought that the subway was a dragon and he tried to attack it oh so he just ████ dumped a homeless man no i don't know what the ████ are you talking about so just because he's a village he can't ████ hate his son he's just saying everybody in my village like already had children by this age but like we're already in a progressive time where people are having children lit or getting married later or maybe not having as many children at all but

3:23 is that true in china though you wish you knew he this is like hey you know everyone's ████ judging my ass dude everyone's gonna be going what the ████ did you do who are you backing up right now this guy the dad yeah this guy yeah okay i just want i just want the camera to know that let the white guy talk about this let's go hey why are you playing daddy's advocate daddy's advocacy of the chinese village man look as a white man i'm very offended by this so you have to respect that ████ how old are you huh i'm 36 and do you have children no your dad should ████ kill himself dude my dad's tried that's what this is about he just didn't have a shanghai railway conveniently played for a dragon there's an ab track though in san diego so he tried to uh take a bunch of medication to kill himself yeah

4:13 and then he gave the note to the guard he overdosed on medication handing it out to the guards and then the note revealed but he's a failure because he tried two ways to kill himself when he still didn't win he couldn't just leave the note on a sunday idiot yeah room or something what does the sun have to say out of all this i want to talk to the sun yeah they didn't interview the sun because they suck at reporting my dad's a ████ loser yeah james cage white he's my age and he just barely got married did she leave initially during the wedding earlier you recently got married barely recently got married by a ████ dude like the wedding was at 3 30 they got married at 6 45 and she she had like a lot of issues and she she got married with mascara running down her face it was a close call but they made it

5:04 worse it's you mad yeah yeah one witness yeah i remember his instagram was super depressing for like three years because he kept talking about how he couldn't get a girlfriend ████ he keeps saying go on dates and i'm like i don't like this girl or this girl don't like me we are not a connection yeah i don't know i don't know maybe it's a big ████ deal out there like everybody roasts the ████ out of you and you get social shame i don't know i'm not chinese if a dad who thinks a train's a dragon speaks for the culture true he tried to kill it he aimed for the heart and he missed one shot and he hit the conductor that's right because a ████ oracle told him that if your son's a loser you must fight a dragon to restore the honor of the fans right yeah he may not be an indicator his dad is uh projecting on a son that's what's happening a little bit do you guys give

5:54 family pressure to like hurry up and do ████ like have kids not if the older sibling has already done it oh so that's the key okay you have if you have siblings and they do it then they they back off you get way less pressure yeah because my i only have one uh sibling who is an older sister and she is about to have her third child and is married for me it makes it so easy oh yeah because in my family there's so many ████ nieces nephews i don't know all their names bro are you the oldest or not i'm the oldest son hmm but you have an older sister i have a little sister who's hot as ████ but she already pumped out all the grandkids yeah i mean dude yeah every guy is slamming her there's so many followers oh no do your brothers have any kids uh yeah my little my littlest brother has now three on his third kid

6:44 she's about to pop like within so so that means somebody's already carrying on the green name though big time yeah the big green not right in my opinion not right they're not doing them well they're not doing it well they're ████ up but i guess as a grandparent it's kind of like all right the names carried on i have grandchildren i've been able to see them in my lifetime i'm satisfied to an extent because it can't be like all ████ rainbows and unicorns right yeah so i mean i i for one reason i guess i can understand the father being like slightly ashamed sure i think it's reasonable to feel some sort of shame but not to the point of ████ trying to commit suicide twice in fact 29 is young in our generation that's what i'm saying yeah yeah right yeah his generation village generation i understand but when they get married 16 probably 15 16. oh man all i know is i see nikki's grandma she's a filipino lady

7:34 and every time i'm like it's a total ████ takeover [Laughter] what does she say i don't know what she said [Laughter] oh is that what you think it means yeah he's ████ gentrifying the ████ limo family dude i wasn't even i wasn't even thinking like that what were you thinking of like about how i take over the buffet table i got a big bib on is nikki i think he's not full filipino though she's she's half filipino oh so that's already been taken over slightly it's only halfway there yeah but no but the best part is all the cousins and me we're all white dudes so we're just in there ████ waffle style but the whole heritage [Laughter] so everybody in that family married white everybody bro wow they look

8:26 they're trying to give their children a head start man and we're all big ████ it down dude that is offensive yeah but i like it we're double-digging at some of us yeah whoa why people are born with two dicks sometimes that's when i that's what i'm ████ my wife and then i'm also ████ around with my with my fingers why are we just rubbing it i don't know what where are we at this in this joke where are we i don't know are we near the end of her mouth with my fingers i would have thought that's what you meant we're double digging you get pressure you since you've been married and been together for a long time my sisters they're older six and seven years now i'm the only one that's married out of like our whole west coast side were you being pressured not to marry

9:16 no i don't think they really kind of give a ████ really wow which is kind of weird like they don't talk about my mom's like i'm not ready for grandkids she's not ready for grandkids where the ████ says that i don't know i don't know i don't know anybody that said i've never heard that ability you just get all the fun parts yeah my mom's like i'm not ready for this yet that's what she says she said that to us a couple nights ago and i was like cool it's like somebody's saying i don't want any dessert yeah who the ████ says that yeah yeah who doesn't want dessert i said that i'm sorry i'm not ready to win the lottery i don't know is there a savory dessert i'll leave them that's the vibe of my family though that's crazy i used to feel the pressure all the time but not anymore does your mom know that your sister's a less though she's lessened out big time yeah does your mom accept that you know kind of she's not ready for grandkids because of that or no it's well as far

10:06 as like my my oldest sister she's not really dating anybody my middle sister she's dating somebody but they live in miami and they're kind of like i don't think they want to have kids yeah so it's literally just between me and my lady but we're not in a rush either so for me if i have a daughter and she's like hey dad i'm a lesbian i'll be like that that's totally fine but i need you to ████ prove it like make out with your girlfriend right now you see you make it with oh that's that's too easy yeah but she needs to be a hot girlfriend and i'm your father there's so many ways my emotions don't accept you what are your what are your emotions are you feeling yeah what's going on about the father-son complex after this conversation cause we're just talking about how lesbian we're talking about how cool we are to you guys that the father-son complexes are the most powerful emotional ties

10:57 whether it be in scripted things or in real life for you actually yeah anytime i hear about you know things like this it it goes a little bit deeper you know what i mean we're talking about how lesbian relationships are super beautiful and we're talking about how you need your daughter as a lesbian to prove it by making out with a hot chick he needs a fact checking man that's pretty progressive this story that's pretty progressive yeah as ridiculous as it sounds still resonate with you in some way it's only ridiculous because he failed to kill himself twice because of the dragons yeah this guy's the dragon part doesn't sound ridiculous the funny thing is these ████ they're such a narcissist right that they make it their kid's fault instead of having a hand in that ████ ████ that went down exactly that's your son he's probably got your ugly ass ████ face

11:48 you know do we got a face shot of this ugly dad ugly as ████ dude and then i see a picture and i'm like oh that that's the mom for sure that's the mom damn i feel bad you know [Music] you
