[@Byebyebyefifi]

I know I live in America because when he was talking about not knowing if someone is carrying... I wasn't thinking knifes.

[@Robert_Reacts]

🫢🖤

[@KiPisMe]

I totally thought the same thing.

[@mercedesvelasquez8781]

​@@KiPisMe​I must of hung around a different sort of crowd over here in California because when someone says their carrying I automatically assume either knife specifically butterfly/switchblade or else the kind that has been carried in a protective sheath, gun and or scissors or anything sharp objects including hidden razorblades & broken glass. Hate to sound stereotypical hispanic here but folks in my high school and neighborhood I came from that is how it went down so carrying could mean one of many thing's not just one thing like gun unless you live down in the south or mid west or south west for them folks over there I would automatically assume their carrying a gun lmfao and not a really knife because thing's roll vastly different over there compare to over here in the west coast specifically California just stating facts as a born native here.. ​

[@lovd888]

​@@mercedesvelasquez8781 California has much stricter gun laws so I understand where you are coming from. I'm from tx and I immediately thought of a gun. I am a stereotypical hispanic too, in high school, they had knives and guns, this was before school shootings were a big thing. My friends carried for protection.

[@kiki29073]

[@SheilaMarguerite]

That grandmother was so presumptuous, she went off the deep end! I don't blame them for limiting contact.

[@jesclifford88]

She should’ve called her own kids that! Who tells someone what to call their children 🤦🏼‍♀️

[@ericadrake387]

Yeah, if she’s can’t respect the parents’ wishes over a NAME, she can’t be trusted around the child. Because she won’t stick to any rules or routines set out whilst baby sitting etc. “Yes I know you raised several children perfectly fine. But because you insisted on not giving them their nap at all today, they’re going to fall asleep in the car on the way home & they’re going to be up all night. It’s now going to take several days before they get back into their routine. Plus several days of us all being grumpy through lack of sleep, all because you wanted to play with them for an extra hour. Surely, when raising your kids, you figured out somewhere along the way, that nap time was best for THEM? Oh you had to put up with your kids’ grandma’s doing that too? Guess they put their wants before their grandchild’s needs too then? How selfish!” 😂

[@carolbaker2773]

I swear some women just lose it when they get their first grandchild. My friend was planning a sex reveal/baby shower party (not light the forest on fire or anything crazy) and would not tell anyone the sex of the child until the party. Her MIL kept bothering her about it saying that it was her RIGHT as the grandma to know before other people. The reveal was going to be a cake (white frosting with the blue or pink cake) and the MIL found what bakery, called them and told them that there was a last minute change to find out the sex (it was a girl) and then changed the icing color to be a purple color. Needless to say, the friend couple was furious and basically cut her out of a lot of stuff afterwards. Like they forbid her from being in the delivery room until everyone else in the immediate family got a chance to see the baby (like the cousins boyfriend was allowed in before her lol) and hospital staff take that shit seriously. The MIL apparently almost got kicked out of the hospital kinda serious. They eventually moved 5 hours away for a job advancment and part of me thinks it was to get away from her lol

[@SonamyShadow13]

I bought a tumbler that cost literally $10 that keeps my water cold all day and keeps ice for days. I have dropped it on the ground so many times, still keeps it’s seal lol

[@alicein1984]

I grew up in the south & also poor. We didn't get a lot of snow, but every time we did my grandma (who grew up in depression times where she learned it) would put out a clean pan to gather snow to make snow ice cream for us. It's one of my fondest memories, & then I saw this trend online & everyone ripping it apart... I wondered how I survived back then based on the comments.

[@Iphideen]

I moved to Arizona a few months ago and eating snow was what I missed most about living in Minnesota. I would put out a clean bowl when it snowed and just eat the whole thing. I would also collect a bowl for my cat and let him play in the snow. Fondest memory ❤

[@catherinegreer854]

Okay, 1 more thing. Snowcream, my great-grandmother would whip that up with the first good snow. I am 52, so it's been around a long time. She would take it from a top patio table or have a bowl ready to catch it. We wouldn't go to a public park or get it off the ground. It is a good and wonderful memory I have of her.

[@incrediblyizzy]

where i live in the southern US, we are not equipped for the snow and our rods iced over, the entire city lost power and the whole cities pipes froze and leaked so they sent out a ordinance not to drink tap water. people who couldn’t drive to get water were told to boil snow for 2 weeks because our tap water was unsafe

[@Robert_Reacts]

Same in the south of England we are so unprepared ! But the north are always ready!

[@HarryDunlopClark]

The retail workers not stopping theft is such a valid point. I used to work for a well known chain restaurant just as a waiter. A lady walked out on quite a large bar tab. Being young and stupid, I went after her. Followed her to the road and round the corner onto the high street, and at that point she pulled a knife on me. I immediately backed off. It wasnt worth getting hurt. After that, I ended up in management of bars and restaurants, and I told this same story to every new hire. I also showed them the news article about it, and made it clear to NEVER try and be a hero.

[@Originalbossman]

Also: snow cream is a VERY popular thing to do in the southern USA.

[@MooshTaco]

I was hoping for someone to mention snow cream!

[@lhisc6]

with snow, its just about picking the clean snow. not coloured (red, brown, yellow, gray), no footprints near by, and freshly fallen (top layers, not near the ground)

[@Bloody_RedQueen]

Right? I'm from SC so on the rare occasion we get good snow we've always made snowcream

[@keisakura9014]

Right? One thing we did as kids and even now is put a table outside (away from the trees) with clean bowls on them when the snow starts. The bowls catch the fresh snow and some of the prep work is done. It doesn’t snow much anymore here, though. 😢

[@scorpion-lg4ic]

im so NOT into the stanley cup craze because when Robert first said "more crazy Stanley Cup people news", i thought he was talking about ice hockey. you know THE ACTUAL Stanley Cup!!! the reason Reese Witherspoon was making "snow cream" is because its a big deal in the southern part of the USA. back in the day when people were poor and couldn't get much sweet treats, they made snow cream in places like Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana etc. just don't eat yellow snow or snow that is directly touching the ground.

[@busyweekendmama]

This has happened to me several times since this craze started 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

[@Yaokingtray]

same lol

[@TheLalafemme]

I’m with you on the REAL Stanley Cup! Using snow is a huge cultural treat for the Metis people of Canada. We pour maple syrup into fresh snow and eat it like candy. Delish!

[@erika2m16]

People get violent over hockey, too. It's like naming a cup "Stanley" gives it mind control powers 😂

[@jen8204]

I grew up with Snow Cream here Tennessee. We just used sugar, vanilla flavoring and regular milk.

[@ruthannes.8531]

The snow thing has been around for hundreds of years. Laura Ingalls talks about it in one of the little house on the prairie books. But I think they just mixed it with maple syrup? Or honey. Something like that. They also used to make honey or maple syrup candies in the snow. I think some places still do that? Pretty cool, but snow is pretty dirty 😅 so my mom only let me try it once when I was little and was reading the Little House on the Prairie books, but discouraged me from eating snow after

[@disgruntledmoderate5331]

Maybe this is why my family never did this- Mum probably thought it was unsafe.

[@saidametivier-aly4566]

Hey ! In Québec (Canada) we still made maple candies in snow 😃

[@sabrinakroesen6791]

Same in Ontario! 🇨🇦

[@nollypolly]

In Canada we make maple taffy by boiling down maple syrup and pouring it on fresh snow. Its something the indigenous people here have been doing for centuries....possibly millenia. Not sure I would consume a LOT of snow like that though. Pollution is a thing now. 😂

[@kiwifruit6]

All the Stanley cups sitting on the police cruiser made me chuckle

[@handsanitizer5127]

They chose the most aesthetic ones that matched their cruiser lmao!

[@Robotika]

Not sure if anyone has mentioned it, but where I live we do “sugaring off.” And during this time, maple syrup will be added to snow to make a “taffy” that’s rolled onto sticks and then eaten. It’s delicious! Very much something I’ve come across in my part of Ontario/Quebec. And I know it’s like it in Vermont?

[@maryeckel9682]

We have a maple tapping event near me in northern Illinois, and maple candy is part of it!

[@NailahRoberts]

[@lindsay419]

We definitely ate snow growing up. Just steer clear of yellow snow! Didn’t have time to go in for a drink of water, ate it when it was thrown at us, ate it atving, ate it shoveling, at it because we were curious. I think everything turned out fine.

[@aleigha9141]

Ugh the Stanley cup thing. I just don’t get it 🤷‍♀️ As for eating snow, I live in Northern New York (think way at the top of the state by the Canadian border) in a rural town and we have always done this. “Maple snow” was often times a dessert after Sunday dinner. We usually get a lot of snow (measured in feet) and have large yards and areas of “fresh” snow to choose from. We loved it! We don’t do it so much now that the kids are grown but just seeing it makes me want to go out and get a bowl of snow lol love you and your content! Have a great week! Hugs! 💚💜🖤 Edit: I went through the same thing when I was pregnant with my son and then my daughter with the naming them situation. With my son, it was my husband who insisted that he be named after him. So, he’s a Jr. With my daughter I was told I HAD to give her this certain first name but I could pick the middle name 😳 THAT was the family tradition. I did put my foot down and named her what I wanted 🤷‍♀️ sometimes you just have to.

[@MeadInTheHorn]

Reese Witherspoon was so close to the name Sno-Cap for her drink, and yet missed 😢 Also, here in Pennsylvania, snow cream is a big tradition!

[@disgruntledmoderate5331]

I live in PA and have never heard of this! I will need to remember to try this next time we get fresh snow.

[@amberNikki1313]

I’m from Eastern Ky and grew up making snow cream. I was wondering if they were trying to reinvent it but maybe it’s just not a thing everywhere?

[@LanakilaMiller]

It’s called Crohn’s disease, IBS, no gallbladder, GERD, lactose intolerance and gastroparisis. I spend average an hour a trip in the bathroom. Depending on if eating something new or out taken home I could end up needing to rush before finished eating. Also when you have to go multiple times every 15 minutes until empty why not stay there for an hour to be empty and then go on with your day. This has been my life since 2010 now (26). I’ve been diagnosed with all the above medical conditions since 2009 to this year along with multiple autoimmune diseases and several other things and I do take medications.

[@UnpurrfectRobyn]

It has been reported that Target, amongst other large retailers, will keep track of the value of thefts from their store and wait to press charges until you've reached the threshold for grand theft, which is a felony versus misdemeanor! This is to help deter theft in general because the penalities for felony theft are much more severe than for misdemeanor or petty theft.

[@MarjaMariachi]

Target is practically a spy agency at this point! Back when iPods were a thing, there was a problem where people would buy them, open the box, and find batteries or a small weight -- no iPod. Target went through past transactions, flagging anyone who bought and returned multiple iPods. Then they went on eBay, found a seller in the area that was selling iPods without boxes, and placed an order. The serial numbers matched the empty boxes, and the seller was on the flagged list. BOOM! Busted!

[@LanakilaMiller]

In California it’s only $500 for the difference Ethernet a felony and misdemeanor. In most counties it can be dropped and a fine because it’s more costly for police and courts time for this type of crime. It doesn’t go anywhere nor on permanently from county to county either especially because they aren’t arrested just given a ticket and court date.

[@baileydubs]

Growing up, we would go out and collect snow in a bowl and mix it with maple syrup! It was so good!

[@iamawesomehearmeroar]

I'm totally down for "Robert's Weekly Weird News" series

[@TheMadsky101]

I’m from Oklahoma, and it’s quite common to make ice cream from snow. Normally we set a special bowl outside where animals can’t get to it so that it’s extremely clean snow. I don’t think I would be taking it off of my car or anywhere near the ground because that could be easily contaminated. I’m 65 and we’ve been doing it my whole life it’s not new, but it is yummy.😊

[@RileyRunsWithScissors]

My mom used to make snow ice cream for us when we were little. It was just a bowl of snow, a little bit of milk, sugar and a dash of vanilla. It was always super special because we don’t get a lot of snow where we live, so it was a rare treat.

[@RainbowSludge]

My grandma also got so obsessed with naming her first great grandchild after her own mother. To the point that she kept referring to the fetus that way and then refused to call her by her actual name when she was born. Eventually she had to move on and accept it though.

[@kaniq6120]

As an inuit person the snow bowls reminded me of a traditional dish we make called akutaq but we wip the snow up with fat and sugar and berries not syrups. It was so weird seeing the whole Internet go crazy over something we have been doing for thousands of years and acting like its some new cool thing or freaking out about how gross it is.

[@mareezyg6058]

Sitting for hours a day is the new smoking, apparently. Increased risks to your health and can cause early death. On a brighter note, you never fail to surprise and delight with your observations and admissions. You're a tonic 😍

[@aliciat2532]

My mom made snow ice cream all the time when i was a kid, 30 years ago. But she just used fresh fallen snow, cream, sugar, and vanilla. And we also lived in the VERY rural countryside in the US with no city pollution hanging around in the air. It was delicious, and nobody got sick 🙃

[@jennc4984]

I worked at a big box retailer for 14 years. We were trained to get a description of the subject and their car. We then gave that info to the loss prevention team. If on site, they would handle any apprehensions. If not, they reviewed the video and reported it. One of the biggest points was as a team manager and leader on duty we were not to stop people for exactly the reasons you said. It's dangerous. Also, the loss prevention team had to go through certification courses on how to apprehend and safely detain the subjects.

I actually have spent most of my life (currently I am 30) spending multiple hours sitting on a toilet... I feel grateful for being called out. It honestly used to be my escape place as a child growing up in a dysfunctional and abusive environment now that I think about it. I remember I would sit for hours reading books or playing on my Nintendo or Playstation handheld devices. After getting my first smartphone, that has been my latest trap now. I definitely want to do anything now to combat all of these years that have wreaked havoc on my posture and overall health. Love you, Robert. Thanks for being awesome, as usual. ♥️

From someone who used to sit on the toilet until my legs went numb, that's probably why. The shape isn't the same as a flat seat or even like seat cushions that do have a hole in the center. The toilet is the only place that my legs go numb on when sitting. So the shape probably messes with circulation 😅

It's pretty cool to see all the snow-cream memories from commenters! I grew up somewhere hotter than hell that saw snow maybe once while I lived there, so snow-cream wasn't a thing. (Snowcones? Sure. Hawaiian Ice, abso-freaking-lutely! Gosh that stuff was amazing. Shaved ice with various different flavoring syrups and a ton (atleast on mine) of spray whippedcream down in the middle of it. Yum!😋)

[@SundaySpeaks]

4:59 we did this when I was growing up. We left the bowl outside while it snowed and made snow cream. It’s delicious. I wouldn’t scoop any from the ground though just incase any urine or fecal matter was lurking. My mom is from Chicago and grew up doing this and passed down the tradition 🫶🏾

Hospice nurse here. I had a patient who lived by themselves and one day when I planned to visit, they did not answer the phone. One of my colleagues and I went to the apartment and they had died while on the toilet. They were still ON the toilet. It had been 3 days since anyone had heard from this patient. We have a nerve near our tailbone called the vasovagal nerve and when we bear down (ie pooping), we push on this nerve, causing the blood pressure to drop. Otherwise healthy people may feel dizzy or lightheaded but can recover quickly. Someone with an underlying disease can faint or, like in the case of my poor patient, die due to the sustained drop in BP. A terrible way to be found although we did our best to preserve their dignity. I will never forget how shocked I was to see the aftermath 😢

[@maryeckel9682]

One of my nieces is an EMT, and she said it's pretty common to find people on or near the toilet. Often, people mistake a heart attack for stomach cramps. She's also has had a couple of patients who got wedged between the toilet and the wall.

That’s snow cream Robert! It’s a tradition in Appalachia. I’m sure it came from people not being able to access ice cream in the mountains and still wanting a sweet treat. It’s so common here a bbq restaurant I worked at had a “snow cream” slushie that was topped with condensed milk. (No snow actually in the slushie lol)

It's the straining that causes the issue with the toilet. The vagus nerve can be triggered by straining on the toilet. That itself can cause heart skips and a weak heart may not be able to recover. I wanted to add that if you find yourself needing to strain on the toilet you should see your doctor. You may need to introduce a stool softener or a fiber of some sort to your diet. Do not keep straining though!

[@justkiddin84]

Or eat veggies and grains. It’s amazing how many people will not.

😂Robert, you used that Italian hand gesture perfectly! I was listening and got distracted for a second but thought I saw it so I had to rewind the video 😁. Crazy people 🤦🏿‍♀️

5:27 snow cream!!!! Ate this as a kid. My grandmother did as well. I thought it was a common thing but I’m in southern US

[@jacquikv5560]

😂Lol! Robert that is what we call snow ice cream... It's delicious. We don’t get a lot of snow here, but about every 5 years we will get a huge amount. But we only used condensed milk and snow that we collected it after it snows for a while and put a bowl or pot out. 😂

The snow one is called "snow cream" and it's really popular here in the Midwest. But snow is... so disgusting 😭😭😭 Also with the toilet it's bad for you because the way a toilet is shaped applies a LOT of pressure to certain parts of your circulatory system.

Im loving the new channel so much, all this etra Robert every week is just great. I need a weekly 'Robert reports weird news' I can hardly keep up. Off to let my dog kiss me on the mouth and its snowed a shit tonne in Yorkshire today so i might eat a snow dessert too

[@LisaAdair-e6r]

Yes we ate snow ice cream all the time growing up. I'm 52 so it's been @ a long time.

Snow cream! I just use regular milk (though you’re supposed to use sweetened condensed milk), vanilla, and sugar. I learned how to make it from my mom’s stepmom. Also I have metal bowls and just set those out so I don’t have to scoop any up and risk dirt/rocks.

My Mamaw always made us snow cream when it snowed enough to do it. She would put vanilla and different things in it. It was delicious.

[@sharil3645]

We used to make snow ice cream. When I was younger. Our whole family. My mom would gather it up and add certain ingredients and we thought we were so cool. But we live way out in the country.

[@ellyung333]

Love this type of video Robert!! Can listen to you read weird stories all day lol

[@bartho5212]

Snow cream is quite common in the places I have lived (all within the continental US). My little one loves it!

[@shelbynicole42024]

Snow Cream! We have done this my whole life, even though we don't get MUCH snow where I'm from. But it's super common, and quite delicious! Plus, it's fun for kiddos (and adults, honestly).

[@horimiya7290]

Heyo, just weighing in on the toilet thing. It’s probably a cause of correlation not causation. People who spend a lot of time on the loo (30+mins??) likely have other issues that lead to a shorter life (gut issues, very poor diet). Rather than the time on the loo leading to a shorter life.

Even tho i love your other channels, i really really love this one. You entertain the shit out of me.

[@Robert_Reacts]

Thank you! 🖤🖤

[@steph87942k]

OMG I live in Rocklin, CA & Roseville is the city next to mine! I saw this Stanley cup story on the news. People can be so dumb!😂

[@annajosullivan]

Oh no! I live in Texas and our mom used to make us snow ice cream when it snowed. She always waited until it had been snowing for awhile to “get the pollution out of the snow “.

[@ItIsWhatItIs8120]

Omg😂😂😂😂😂 I thought you were talking about Hockeys Stanley Cup ...😅😅😂😂😂😂.
