So I found this story about a roommate asking for grocery money and an Uber Eats bad grandma who accidentally walked into the fight and fixed my roommate. At first, it sounds like a simple roommate money drama. Then it turns into one of those stories where a total stranger shows up at exactly the wrong time… and somehow says exactly what everyone needs to hear. Post your stories. I WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU!

This story perfectly illustrates the difference between "good" and "nice." Sometimes, good is not nice, and nice is not good. Try to be good, not nice. "Nice" is how you end up being an enabler, which is what this roommate became. Uber Eats lady is a badass and a legend. We need more like her. I'd be dead in a gutter somewhere if it weren't for people like her.
Not the jerk. She just needs to learn to set boundaries and say no! It's hard for us people-pleasers to do, but worth learning to stand up for yourself. (Edit: I only found this channel yesterday, and it has already become one of my favorite channels on YouTube! Thank you, piano man!)
Now i want to know how it went with Paul. I hate cliffhangers.
No one is a jerk, the roomies are just bad at communication. Also, you captured the off key singing perfectly 😆 more impressive since it was from memory.
I love how much you reacted to things during this video, it made it even more fun. But I agree with the others, its not her falt. You know I really like the meditation part of this video and I haven't heard others talk about it. People tell me to meditate when stuff goes wrong, they say it'll help eas my mind and sometimes that can be true. But half the time it just makes it worse, I just start to relax and then something ruins it and suddenly its worse than ever. Sometimes I do better just keeping myself occupied.
I wouldn’t call her a jerk. I wouldn’t call anyone a jerk. They just have some learning to do. I think OP’s parents never taught him how to manage and budget his money. And I think OP’s giving heart needs to practice keeping boundaries. I would say they’re both just young, dumb, maybe naive. I agree with Janet. They’re going to be just fine.
Great content bro. You have a very kind and compassionate vibe, and I enjoy your dramatic reading.
Lololololololololol As I said before, I'm almost 65, and I find you adorable and extremely funny. She's not the jerk. Chris is the jerk and That's why he's embarrassed. And I love Door Dash lady.... I'M Door Dash lady. It's something that happens to you when you spend a significant amount of your life organizing people. Bringing them into the world (and yes, I can take you out of it), and keeping them alive until You decide you're either tired of it, or you think they can handle it on their own. But by that time you've become so used to it, you unconsciously start finding people or things that need taken care of (see Origin of the Crazy Catlady here), and you become That person. The person who will walk up to a complete stranger and start trying to teach them, car maintenance, color coordination and/or lawn care.
I need my own Uber lady.
Grandma prestige. She could have charged for the group therapy session. Waltzes in and fixes everybody's life. Love her!
TITANIC FLUTE LET’S GOOOO
This is my new favorite YouTube channel. I get anxious easily and your storytelling/voice helps me ease my nerves a lot. I love the balanced mix of joy and sadness from the keyboard. You are a skilled pianist and your instrument adds emotional layers to every story. Perhaps try some creepypasta stories around Halloween (I love those but they freak me out as well, make me paranoid lol) and if it’s popular, make it an annual special lol? Not too often, I really like your peaceful stories, but I’m curious if creepypastas are better with creepy piano or creepy church organ lol.
I think Christopher is the jerk here. Its pretty wild to continuously ask your roommate for money. Its your roommate, if they so no, stuff gets incredibly awkward. He's a jerk for putting her in a situation where she *thinks* that he has no groceries without her help. Its easier said than done to refuse a roommate when it seens like you are all that stands between them having no food.
"He didn't smell bad" is a low bar, but that's just a gateway point to a higher bar. Prepare to have your heart broken when she realises she was just lonely and she actually wants more :) Or you realise why her bar was so low.
I’m never saying “gall” without doo-doo-de-doo ever again.
Nice outro ❤
I mean… For what it’s worth, *_I_* think you have _more_ than a chance, my dude :)
I hate those sink bowls.And the landlords who dont fix things.My God I hope I have bad grandma energy.
Janice would be my best friend for life. Adopted auntie. She OP's auntie now whether she like it or not just like she came into OP's apartment whether she liked it or not.
Excellent. Door dash lady was indeed a badass, and the gall was just what that hapless pair needed. And I love the deep gravelly voice you slid into for her. I'm going to imagine that the nephew was a good guy who let OP get a word in edgeways and maybe they worked out. And maybe after a while badass door dash lady and a new niece in-law had regular coffee dates where OP learned how to badass for herself.
