Stupid things I did as a kid part two since you guys showed a lot of support on the last one Thank you for that. By the way, I figured i'd come through with the part two Like I had about the worst track record a kid could have being like extremely dumb and oblivious You know, I was just the goat at that like I had a good, you know, 12 to 15 brain cells operating on a normal day It was a bit rough for me. I'm not gonna lie I think I mentioned this briefly in my last video, but I would just eat a lot of random shit
Like I talked about the time I found a penny on the ground and I just ate it. And it reminded me of this one time when I was playing truth or dare with my friends outside. And one of my friends said, I dare you to go dig through the grass until you find worms and then eat a chunk of dirt and worms. And I was like, all right, bro, chill, chill, chill.
I'll eat the dirt, alright? But I'm not eating the worms, man. That's where I draw the line. I'm still eating stuff that's just not edible. Like, it doesn't matter. Either way, I'm putting my stomach through hell. Like, it doesn't matter what I do in that scenario. So I grab this patch of dirt, and I was surrounded by, like, three of my friends and my brother.
And they were like, eat it, eat it. They would cheer me on, bro. This was a crazy event. This was like that one kid in the cafeteria that would make the most random food concoction of all time. And I ate it. I did it. Or well, I ate a little bit of it, but I spit out most of it. I still, to this day, do not understand how I swallowed dirt and I just let that slide. That is crazy. How did something just not click in my head? Like maybe you're not headed in the right direction in life if you're eating dirt.
I don't know, man. And it was totally worth it because I won, guys. I did it. I was the champion of Truth or... Nah, it was not worth it at all. I still don't know what was cooking up in my mind. And now to this day, I'm a pretty competitive person still. Like, I would do anything to win. And of course, that's why I'm messing with Mech Arena, the sponsor of today's video. Mech Arena is a really fun free-to-play online shooter that you can play on mobile or desktop.
One of the coolest features about the game is the tournaments. They're like weekly competitions that let you compete against others and win rewards. You can access these tournaments without too much progress in the game, and you'll be playing with players at your level. They're also the only way you can access the chaotic free-for-all mode where you're pitted against all the other players, and it has no team. The tournaments are one of the best resources to upgrade your mechs and weapons.
And me personally, that's definitely my favorite feature of the game. That the mechs have so much customization. In honor of Plarium's anniversary, they released their new space-themed event, Solar Survivor. They recently released three new 5v5 maps in the legendary Scorpius mech. And of course, they plan on bringing new powerful weapons into the game.
Like there's a new missile weapon coming soon called the disruptor and the chimera They also celebrated fourth of july with the us community by bringing the liberty skin for the onyx and the star spangled skin for all mechs You can use my personal link or scan the qr code to get a bonus worth of
$30 in cosmetics. You get one skin, one prodigy crate, and 5,000 credits to help kickstart your game. And of course, if you download the game, you can also add me. You know, we can run up some matches. So thank you to Mech Arena for sponsoring today's video. We also played Hide and Seek Inside because we really thought we were him for playing Hide and Seek Inside. It was crazy. I still don't understand to this day why we didn't just go outside to play Hide and Seek. Like, you have no space to run around. Like...
What? Like, that just made no sense. I would hide in the dumbest spots possible. I would try to squeeze underneath my friend's parents' small bed. Like, that just was not ideal. Or either that, or I would like hide in the blankets and just suffocate for like 30 minutes straight. And of course, my young, innocent, pure mind did not realize what could have possibly went down there.
And one time I even hid in the shower. The shower? Like, that's my homie's shower. Why was I hiding in there? My third grade mind just did not care. I simply just wanted to win hide and seek. In the worst spot of them all, one time I tried hiding in the washer machine. The washer machine! Like, what?
What happens if my mom just walks in there, doesn't notice I'm there and hits start? Like it's raps, it's over. And when my friends found me, they were like, wow, why would you hide in there? You are so, but I won and I was happy I won. And I just did not care about the dumb decision I just made.
Hiding seek was crazy, bro. If I had to hide in a prickly bush, I would do it. I would suffer just to win, bro. You know, those bragging rights were just A1. Now, another time when I went over my friend's house. Now, my friend, he was my neighbor. So I was there quite a lot. And on this one particular day, there was a kid there that was the grandchild of one of our neighbors. And I've never seen the kid before. This is my first time meeting him.
And of course, we're inside playing our DS's because well, that's just what we did after playing basketball or hide and seek or whatever we did. And now this kid, this kid did not bring any games then. Like who brings a DS with no game? Like what? All right. But anyways, yeah, this kid, he asked one of us to give him our games. And of course I caved because I felt bad that he was just sitting there in silence. And at the time, of course, I was running up some Pokemon heart gold.
And I gave it to him. He's like, here you go, bro. You can have it for now. And now I don't understand why I trusted this kid. I literally just met him today. This was my favorite game, bro. I brought it everywhere. I beat Red. I caught every legendary in the game. Like I was actually a sweat. I was showing this off to my friends. I thought I was him at the end. Now this kid was just walking around randomly in the game. Like he didn't even know how to play. Like I was always checking on him. I was like that one creepy teacher that's like, hi.
No phones are allowed in class actually. And just starts aggressively tapping you on the shoulder. And now his parents came to pick him up. And I didn't realize this. At this point, I don't know what I was doing. Like I was probably playing on my iPod or something. And this kid just left without me even noticing. And bro still had my game. So I just got finessed out of my Pokemon heart gold. Holy complete file. I was crying. I was having a full-on mental breakdown. Okay, I wasn't that serious.
this file mental onto me. So of course, I was doing everything in my power to get it back. *Humming*
"M-M-M-Mommy stole my game!" Alright, chill out, it's not the end of the world, you're not bleeding, you're not hurt, is the world exploding? No, you're fine. I'll call the neighbor and see if he can bring it back to you next time he's at the house. And it took bro about like a month to give me the game back, and you know what? At least I got it back, I still have it to this day. Now of course I would play a lot of video games, and I would go to my grandmother's house a lot, and sometimes my cousin would be there and he would have his Xbox, and he would hook it up and play Call of Duty or something.
And now on this very day, we were there for a family function. I go downstairs and I see him playing. And obviously my eyes are glued. And of course I had to ask him if I could play, of course, like I had to be that kid. And he did let me play for a round, which was nice of him. And when he was playing, I noticed he had like headphones on and he told me not to put them on. And I was like, okay, why not? I was confused. Now the headphones were on the floor in front of me. And I was able to listen to what was being said. It went something like this.
Who the f*** is this? This guy f***ing sucks. He's trash. Dude, you're like almost Prestige Master. What are you doing? What are you aiming at? You're worse than a goddamn Stormtrooper, buddy. Are they talking to me? Nah, of course not. They're talking about somebody else. Don't worry about them. Just keep playing the game. Now, of course, he was a Call of Duty veteran, all right? Like, he was a god at the game, all right? And it took a lot from him.
You know, to give me the controller because, well, your nine-year-old cousin's gonna screw up the KD. And now we move to my middle school days. And of course, I was not bright either. You know, I was entering my edgy phase. I would yell memes down the hallway like it was bad. Looking back on those days for me, man, is kind of rough. And now, I don't know if a lot of you remember when I talked about getting scammed by a Clash of Clans gem scam, right? And I did not learn my lesson, apparently.
I thought since an ad for free gems popped up on my YouTube homepage, I thought it was legit. A lot of scammers like to advertise on YouTube, and I did not know this. And I fill in all that information thinking I'm about to be the Scrooge McDuck of gems like I said last time, and of course, same thing happened again. No results. And then it finally clicks. I'm like, oh, yeah, it's probably a scam. Some of you in the comments are probably facepalming right now, like,
Dude, it took you two years to figure out that that was a scam? Really? Yes, it did. I wonder why I was getting the most random emails in my inbox. Like, I was getting emails written in Arabic? Like, I would understand that? I'm the kid that just got scammed here. There's no bulbs lit up there. Not even, like, a little flicker of light. No, it's just completely dim. And forget it, man. If you put me in the kitchen, you are screwed. Like, I messed up everything that I would touch, man.
I was a connoisseur of burning things, alright? When I'd whip up some toast in the morning, I would always burn it. And this one time, I forgot to put water in the easy Kraft mac and cheese. Like, how did I- I don't understand. And I just let the microwave run, and me and Duck were just completely oblivious as to what was going on. We literally just sat there and let it happen, you know, while the pot of mac and cheese is just casually on fire in the microwave. After
playing I don't even know what on my iPad I go over to the microwave and realize what just happened and of course I get in trouble when I get home birdie what the yeah that was rough man I'm not gonna lie and I got banned from using the microwave for a long time I don't know how that's but how do you get banned from using the microwave my parents were like you're so stupid you're not even allowed to use the microwave
That is a crazy insult. Now, I used to play football in seventh grade, right? And at practice, I would get a lot of bruises on my arms because, well, it's football practice. What do you expect? And when I had all these bruises, there was one that was like really big to the point where I couldn't hide it. And one of my teachers eventually picked up on it. And one day, the classroom phone gets called and it's like, uh, Birdie? Yeah, you gotta go to the nurse's office.
I'm like the nurse's office. Why am I going to the nurse's office of all places? Like, do they think I hit a lick on like the nurse supplies? Like what's going on, bro? They sit me down and they started off with a nice smooth tone. They're like, all right, honey, is there anything you want to tell us? I'm like, well,
"What do you mean, is there anything you want? I don't even know why I'm here, bro." And then she was like, "What are those bruises on your arm?" Then I explained to her I play football and stuff. And she was not buying it, even though that was the truth, like, I don't know what else to say in that moment in time. And she kept, like, pushing me, she thought I was gonna, like, crack or something. She was like, "Is everything okay at home?" And then I tell her everything's fine, of course. And then my parents get a phone call home asking about it, of course.
And my mom was mad confused about it, but I just explained everything. Want another video to watch? Watch this video on screen. Anyways, I'm out.
