I know that Ian has had the running joke that he's the dull/deadpan one, but I need to point out just how energized he's been this week since Anthony's come back. I didn't realize til now that Ian hasn't had someone to bounce off of like Shayne/Courtney/Damian, Amanda/Tommy, etc, and having Anthony here is REALLY bringing out Ian's energy and humor in a big way. I dunno, it's good to see him crack jokes with a huge smile on his face.

[@robinhood4579]

They're great apart, but better together. :)

[@smashrawkz311]

I agree 100%

[@xvaderxkiller5190]

It was explained in Anthony’s video I believe that Ian went through a lot after Anthony left. Imagine your best friend and business partner leaving and having to carry the business by yourself while it failing by your parent company owners and then having to carry it on with whatever fumes he was running on. He needed a lot of help and therapy due to it and same happened with Anthony after defy bought them. But you can tell Ian changed and became a lil different but I’m glad to see he looks a lot better now and happier

[@sentientplant9658]

​@xvaderxkiller5190 yeah I came here to say Ian didn't really have time to process anything when The Collapse happened and Anthony left, and that definitely does some psychological damage to people. I'm just upset with everyone who thought Ian was just an asshole. He's not. He just went through so much alone. I love seeing Ian genuinely happy again.

[@xvaderxkiller5190]

@@sentientplant9658 yeah no Ian was always a happy guy and he always had Anthony’s back when they started all of this he was never an asshole he was just really depressed and stressed. It always bothered me that people thought that of him when clearly that wasn’t the case at all.

[@lindsayjanae]

can’t get over the pasta story and people commenting “well have you told him before that you don’t want him to call you bitch” ??? that’s like saying you have to tell everyone who comes to your house that you don’t want them to shit on the floor like it should not be necessary lmao

[@tarathoughts13]

Yea - like some people say it as a joke but you don’t jsut assume that type of stuff - like me and my bff (who’s a girl) use it casually, but a guy can’t use it (unless the girls okay with - or if there was legitimately a good reason) because it was originally used as a derogatory slur AGAINST women.

[@helenlewis2510]

To be fair my boyfriend and I call each other bitch, slut, etc., but we always make sure to let the other know it just for fun.

[@whoahanant]

I think it SEVERELY matters on your relationship. I'm a woman and with both my family and friends we never have cared and we call all eachother "bitch" many times lol. It also matters on HOW you say it. I try and ensure it sounds goofy, strike a goofy pose or say it non chalantly, like it's as boring as the word "rock". This guy saw a tik tok trend and sounds like he PRETENDED to say it LEGITIMATELY. This is why it's highly important to make things clear and not make jokes or light out of such words. Not to mention everyone has different points of views on the world, some people cannot understand things like sarcasm or pick up on all jokes. This guy got mad at her for him pretending to say the B word seriously. She's completely in the right. Don't say hurtful things in seriousness nor pretend to do so without proper obvious social cues. True joking is obvious and everyone should very easily be in on the joke, even subtle jokes are open enough to elicit everyone to find it funny.

[@darkshadowrule2952]

Especially when you usually have to pay an extra fee to be allowed alcohol at a venue. They're throwing a baby tantrum over the couple not shelling out money for something they can't even participate in for the guests' convenience, fuck that

[@jatt94msk]

When you host a wedding you are a HOST inviting GUESTS, the literal nature of this is to cater to your guests. I knows it's a wedding and it's your day, but to not cater for your guests because "Today is all about me and me only" is tremendously cringe imho. However I do think it's messed up to arrange a parallel party that would take away from the amount of guests that can attend your ceremony.

[@robbie5181]

@@jatt94msk They DID cater for their guests though. They provided food and drink. If I want a glass of wine at a friends dinne, they are not obligated to serve exactly what I want. Your logic is really poor, you are essentially saying have your own morals but provide for people that dont have them. Whats the point in that if you arent actually following them? Do I need to provide a hym for every christian that comes to my wedding? Dont get me wrong I think its dumb to not have alcohol, but then again I think loads of stuff should be at events that isnt. Of you dont like it, dont go or complain about it afterwards, but you cant really not let someone pursue their idea for their wedding. This is what family bitching session are for.

[@aspiringwayfarer]

[@NaaimSiddiqi]

I do believe Ian is right that it's after the main reception, but some people are like "well I'll just skip the main reception and go to this one." The easy solve is just to tell people they're not welcome to the alternative reception if they don't attend the main one.

The fact that you ended this comment with the word bitch is contradictory…women can say it but men can’t? Tf?? I get the part that it was a touchy word for her, but she didn’t say they talked about it before so there’s a chance he didn’t know. And the whole “well he should have read my mind he’s old enough to know” is such bs. FUCKING COMMUNICATE. Like adults. You wanna act like a mature adult? communicate!! That being said, she definitely over reacted and that caused a spur of back and forth over reactions on both their parts. No one was really in the right in that situation.

As someone who’s considering a dry wedding, I cannot believe how much resistance there is. Everyone I’ve told so far, especially of generation X, has taken it as a personal offence. The fact that I’m choosing this because of the difficult relationship that my family has with alcohol, seems to be an even bigger problem. Anyway, I’m not paying for an open bar so I can get verbally abused again.

[@ellaminnowpeaaa]

even if you don't end up having a dry wedding, i'm proud of you for considering it! it's super hard to stand up to family members and friends who are super set in their ways but you deserve a wedding that's tailored for YOU (and your partner), not anyone else. good luck 🫶🫶

[@squirrelbugg99]

I totally agree with the dry wedding. I don’t drink because I don’t like it and all sides of my family have problems with alcohol. Some of my family members get so drunk, they completely ruin events. And if it makes those people not come, good, honestly. I don’t want them there, but ultimately will invite them out of obligation (if I do have more than an intimate wedding)

[@PerpetuallyTori]

My husband and I had a dry wedding. There was some push back and some that RSVP’d no. We had a beautiful wedding with people all around that we knew loved and respected us.

People are so unimaginative about vegan food though.. Imagine passing up wedding food! The possibilities are endless: A salad bar, pasta bar, rice and curries, soups, breads and dips and various accoutrements, grilled vegetables with toppings, lots of delicious fruit (perhaps even with some dark chocolate drizzle?), sorbet, fresh smoothies and juices, vegan cakes and the like. Still sounds mouth watering, doesn't it?

[@mary-janereallynotsarah684]

I eat meat. I'm not huge about it but for health reasons. I love vegan food! I think vegans have gotten so creative with flavors. Plus vegetarian dishes just taste so good to me. I prefer veggie lasagna. I love roasted veggies. I love veggies and fruit raw too but my tummy doesn't take that The no alcohol rule would just have me drinking beforehand. I'm literally self medicating for anxiety and groups of humans are too much. Do I either come drunk (which to others is still normal in appearance because moderately drunk me is more normal than sober me and very drunk me is very social but still friendly) or I could come sober, a trembling jumpy mess likely to scream. I'm happy to stay home! But if it was OK to come in drunk but respectful I'd do that over attending the competition because its about the couple.

At my wedding, we didn’t serve alcohol out of respect for my husbands side. MY side quite likes a drink, especially my moms family. So my mom threw an AFTER-after party for her family that DID have alcohol. It’s not that hard to accommodate both, the mother of the bride is being RIDICULOUS.

[@frankcaggiano8282]

While I agree completely, I think something should be said about providing a vegan/non-vegan option as appropriate at weddings, just because you don't eat meat or just because you do eat meat doesn't mean everyone should do the same just because you want them to. But it's wrong to expect alcohol at all events for sure. That's just alcoholism lmao

[@SheilaDeBonis]

The lack of alcohol definitely could be a cultural or religious thing. Especially Sikh people are often vegetarians and alcohol abstainers. They are both popular diets in other Eastern faiths too, Buddhism, Hindu, Islam, Taoist, Jain, etc. I'm fine without having alcohol, but I did used to worry about vegan food having too many nuts or coconuts in them (not allergic I just detest them). But I think vegan menus have definitely expanded and there certainly could be more options for me or folks similar to me nowadays. Just come to the reception with an open-mind, and maybe bring some dairy, meat, or alcohol with you just in case.

[@bippap1034]

@@frankcaggiano8282but then we start getting into pricing and how expensive it may be for a second meaty/meatless alternative. All in all, to me, if the only problem is that somebody personally (even if it’s a large amount of ppl) doesn’t like what’s being served, but could easily still eat it, then there shouldn’t be such an uproar. It’s a day where you don’t have food that you may particularly like. Everyone’s had a day like that and it’s not like you can’t get anything afterwards if you’re still hungry.

[@frankcaggiano8282]

@@fatimazafar8907 I think it's less about "not getting meat" for an evening, and more about consideration of the people you're inviting. It might be "your" day, but those are people too. If I knew I would have vegan/vegetarian guests at my wedding, I would splurge the extra effort to have meal options for them. Same if I was vegan, I would make sure there were non-vegan options so everyone could feel included. I just think it's mildly rude to expect every guest to acclimate to your personal tastes or opinions, regardless of reasoning. People are different and have different tastes, and in 2023 it truly isn't difficult to just have accessible options for everyone.

Last story about the camera in the woman's office has an UPDATE: "There's no HR but the camera was removed thanks to IT. So, as previously stated I still never said anything about the camera. I wasn't really comfortable with it, but I got used to being conscious of my actions so they weren't seeing anything I didn't want them to. There also isn't some sort of HR to talk to about this or anything like that. But our IT guy came in, and he asked my boss about it. I wasn't in the room, so I didn't hear entire conversation, but the first thing I heard was my boss saying that the camera was there before my office ever was. Something about using it to see the front door originally, I guess. That was a weird excuse to me, though, because I've been there for atleast two months at this point and there's no way they could've "accidentally" watched me as much as it felt like they had been. Hearing the conversation out loud also confirmed beyond a shadow of a doubt that it was a camera, and that I wasn't paranoid. The IT guy must've felt some type of way about it, because I didn't hear what HE said but I heard my boss say something about "well, it's not like I was just watching her in her office" in sorta a quieter, sheepishly defensive way. Nobody said anything to me while they were removing it (they took it from his side, not mine) but they instead put it where it would be facing the front door. This happened just over a week ago. I haven't posted an update until now because I was waiting to see if the camera would be put back. I really wanted to see if they were gonna put it back a few days after I.T. left, because THAT would've been wild. But it's been over a week now, the camera is still away from me. It'll take some time before I stop feeling like I'm being watched all the time, though. I'm really curious what the guy said to my boss, whether he said something about it not being allowed or if he called it flat out creepy haha. But I'm glad he did say something, as it got resolved without me ever having to say anything. I'd like to think he low-key had my back. I've still just been acting as if I've never known and haven't said anything about it, and work carries on. Also, it's so wild that this story got put in a Smosh video, holy shit. I heard the news back to back, first the "hey Smosh just bought their channel back" at the same time as "hey your post is in a new Smosh video". I made this post mostly to vent, because I couldn't tell if I had the right to feel so weird about this situation because everyone in my personal circle says it isn't that weird, so it's so nice that so many strangers are validating how I feel. To hear people talk about my experience on a public platform was a little surreal, I won't lie. This got so much more traction than I was ever expecting, but It makes me feel better, so thank you. Genuinely. My experience feels validated and it feels heard, and I feel better because of it. I'm still going to stay at this job, because I still like everyone here and I enjoy my field, but now I'll be doing it under a little less surveillance, lol. If the camera comes back, I'll let you know."

[@alittlefrog2395]

Can confirm, got married a month ago and had a dry wedding bc we have alcoholics on both sides of the family that would have absolutely ruined the wedding. They were very upset when they found out but no one refused to come at least. My father in law did bring beers and pass them out to a couple people that stayed to clean up, which pissed me off, but I just let it slide at that point. I’m also vegetarian and we had all of our food vegetarian bc we weren’t about to pay for food at our own wedding that I couldn’t even enjoy. Luckily everyone loved the food so no one made a stink about having one meatless meal. Really identified with that post lol

@@chickennugget9254True it’s their wedding, but considering you are inviting such amount of people, you might as well consider having options, not saying anything to her, it is still her right, but that’s something that should have been considered.

[@leyrounni1304]

​@@_xwtkBut it's not a restriction, is it. As a meat eater, I constantly eat vegetarian, pescetarian, vegan meals and so on, having a vegetarian meal on your wedding doesn't exclude anyone

An 8 month relationship when you're a teenager is a long time. She never apologised and clearly didn't feel any remorse about it as she seemed to have almost forgotten about it. She's NTA for reaching out to her friend, but she is TA for completely dismissing the fact that she hurt her friend.

Now it's obvious why Ian stopped being such a sad boy starting in videos from months ago. But hopefully he doesn't devolve fully into teenage Ian, the odd crass joke is good but too often and he'll be his own meme.

Regarding the second story. I can see there being a multitude of reasons they don't want alcohol at their wedding. I know for me personally I won't have alcohol at my future wedding because both my parents were alcoholics and I had a bad experience with my dad because of it.

[@Emnms68]

That first story is funny because she’s like “I barely even remember it” but then mentions how long the couple had been together, that they had fallen out over it, and that the boyfriend had made the first move. That’s an awful lot of info you seem to have retained about something you “barely remember”

Who hurt that mom who threw the 2nd party, when she cared more about everybody staying drunk than her daughters feelings?

[@samgaming3354]

eh forcing your beliefs on people and banning alcohol and meat is lame as fuck tho. especially when the dad and others were clearly willing to provide the alternative food/drinks. it was an asshole response to asshole vegans pushing their beliefs on others

[@oxyroid]

It wasn’t even that. She seems like a mom who is jealous of her daughter and can’t stand her having all of the attention. I guarantee her wanting to “make people happy” aren’t her real intentions. She just wanted everyone to like her more and give her more attention than her daughter.

[@mary-janereallynotsarah684]

Ugh like really? It isn't about her. I'm an alcoholic but I'd either go prepared drunk or not at all. I'd ask the couple if I can come buzzed. Because I get the shakes. if they were like no I'd not go. U can choose not to go.

[@Omnifairy23]

10:44 i just think The bigges a**holery is The fact that its THEIR WEDDING AND THEY SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO DESIDE EVERYTHING RELATED TO THE WEDDING, like its their special day, if they wanna have a vegan alchol free wedding, they can hav it, if u are not ”comfortable” with that, u can deside wich matters more, being there for someone on their wedding day, or beef and alchol

in comparsion to the time you have lived at the time its huge, say you start secondary school at 12/13 years old and leave at 16 years old. 8 months a rather huge chunk of that time in comparison to 8 months of you time at the age of 30. Its why time feels like its going faster as you get older because that amount of time is a smaller fraction of your life that progressively gets smaller as time goes on.@@alderblanco2362

[@junglejin3096]

Fr even as an adult I would think eight months is a considerable amount of time. If you've been in a relationship that long its usually at least kind of serious, it's close to a year together

[@Vic-sw1td]

8 months is a long ass time, takes some people less to get engaged

[@pinstripe4254]

These guys talking through these was actually super enlightening. Especially as someone on the spectrum who has trouble identifying social stuff. The b*tch story especially at first glance I kinda focused on the chilli like “Aw man you got that on the floor, the slur was not okay but you did kinda ruin his rug” then I realized, “oh wait anger typically is caused by trouble over time rather than one intense moment, there are probably wider problems in their relationship and she needs to leave him”

[@darth_kal-el]

the woman got her account suspended. it turns out she was homophobic and calling people slurs. She also eventually admitted it was a one time thing and that he had never done anything like that before. Also bitch isn't a slur. Only a silly little American would think that.

In my 1st apartment, my roommate unexpectedly moved in his drug addict brother (he was nice enough, but still a shock and not consulted for it at all) then after about a month of him finally being gone, he moved in his friend (again, no consultation) who was creepy and constantly hit on me. They partied constantly, he fought with his girlfriend daily, neglected his poor dog THEN GOT ANOTHER ONE. I broke the least and left. Unfortunately I got into another roommate situation right after where I was sexually harassed for months before I could afford to break another lease. I was in college and didn’t have anywhere else to go. Since then I REFUSE to have any other roommates ever. I will do what I have to do to pay for my own place.

@@infamouse9263 he’d go on hikes with his girlfriend and wouldn’t bring the dog, he’d lock him in a too small kennel all day. He never walked him, only to go potty (but honestly not enough for a puppy, I frequently cleaned up his dog’s poop off of the carpet, because I don’t want to just leave it there). This lab was massive, and just so untrained, I struggled with him on walks to walk on a leash at all (yeah I took him at some point because I felt so bad he didn’t have any outside time or ways to work out his energy). The roommate actually got mad at me once for taking his dog on a walk, something about how it’s his dog and he’ll do it.

[@spaniard35]

I gotta say, when Ian was left alone when Anthony left. He was not as happy and Defy controlled directing and had him in the side. He didn't feel like he was having fun and was just there because he wanted to still keep channel alive since it was his baby. Shayne, Damien, and Courtney carried smosh as main cast for channel and new smosh fans. As well the other side cast like Noah, Keith, and Olivia. When Defy left Ian literally paid cast to still film some episodes till smosh got bought by Mythical. I havn't watch a lot of smosh only once in a while since Anthony left. Now both owning show and Ian with Anthony just feels right. They are so fun and are happy together. Ian being so open and just smiling and joking around with Anthony made him bloom out and happy. Its so great both being together and having fun. I'm excited to see new sketches and even more with smosh family now has experience for a few years and get to work with main director/writers.
