There were 42 00:01:56,600 --> 00:01:58,640 Speaker 1: total of nine of us, and I unfortunately ended up 43 00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:01,800 Speaker 1: seated next to her at the wonderful dinner. Aside from 44 00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:05,160 Speaker 1: her ignoring everyone equally anyways, I asked her to please 45 00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:07,440 Speaker 1: pass the ketchup when she was done using it. She 46 00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:10,720 Speaker 1: ignored me and said it just out of my reach. 47 00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:15,640 Speaker 1: After she used oh this is This is top tier 48 00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:16,440 Speaker 1: teen aks right here. 49 00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:18,240 Speaker 2: Boy, dude, it's so funny. Though. 50 00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:22,600 Speaker 1: This smells like teen spirit. So I reached over her 51 00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:25,040 Speaker 1: to get it. She started yelling at me for getting 52 00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:29,200 Speaker 1: in her personal space. I told her that I'd asked 53 00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:32,359 Speaker 1: her twice and she had ignored me both times. You're 54 00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:34,720 Speaker 1: playing you gotta you gotta fight fire with fire with 55 00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:36,880 Speaker 1: these kids. But I digress.

Just heard her melt down. 177 00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:45,960 Speaker 2: She adores this girl. 178 00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:48,360 Speaker 1: I don't want to cause an issue between them. I 179 00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:50,160 Speaker 1: didn't really put my friend on the spot. 180 00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:52,959 Speaker 3: Yeah, this kind of could be could be tricky because 181 00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:55,280 Speaker 3: this is a very newly it's a newly forging step 182 00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:58,480 Speaker 3: daughter daughter relationship, which is stepmom stepdaughter relationship. 183 00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:03,000 Speaker 1: That's dep can be tricky. Someone asking someone else to 184 00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:06,520 Speaker 1: pass uh. Opie says, I was annoyed from earlier, but 185 00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:09,040 Speaker 1: let it go. Had she not been rude earlier, I 186 00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:12,440 Speaker 1: likely would have gotten the ketchup. Anyways, a seating arrangement 187 00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:14,800 Speaker 1: meant that no one else would be able to pass it. 188 00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:17,600 Speaker 1: Another commentary says, not the a whole. What is her problem? 189 00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:19,920 Speaker 1: She seems like a brat and not in the good 190 00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:21,480 Speaker 1: new summer way. 191 00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:24,240 Speaker 2: Opie says, no clue. 192 00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:26,800 Speaker 1: My friends are much younger than I am. Maybe she 193 00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:31,520 Speaker 1: doesn't like grandmothers. Oh dude, Opie's also a grandmother. That 194 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:34,280 Speaker 1: just adds to the to the boom rallegy, to the boom, 195 00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:35,960 Speaker 1: to the booms, to the boom. 196 00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:40,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, dude, the boom is oh deeah. Another commentary says 197 00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:43,240 Speaker 3: she relishes the drama. Opie says nice. 198 00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:47,480 Speaker 2: Nice. 199 00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:53,600 Speaker 1: This guy hosts a shop. Opie says, light bulb, you 200 00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:56,240 Speaker 1: are so right. I literally didn't think of it like that, 201 00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:58,880 Speaker 1: but you are so right. She went from invisible to 202 00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:02,200 Speaker 1: being a center of attention. Bingo, thanks for your last Riley. 203 00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:06,920 Speaker 1: What's that from again, I don't know. It's like it's 204 00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:11,160 Speaker 1: from a thing anyways. Sounds like not Edison it it's 205 00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:19,080 Speaker 1: a movie technically the despeakable me. Yeah, yeah, like Bob, Yes, 206 00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:24,400 Speaker 1: there it is. Thank you. Comment says exactly, she was invisible, 207 00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:27,000 Speaker 1: last to be seated. But I doubt these are her 208 00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:29,560 Speaker 1: main worries at the moment. A fourteen year old soon 209 00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:32,480 Speaker 1: to be stepdaughter, Uh for this not to be a 210 00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:35,640 Speaker 1: minefield would be strange. You are a friend of her 211 00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:39,240 Speaker 1: soon to be stepmother, meeting her for the first time. Uh, 212 00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:42,040 Speaker 1: what does it mean to say she had heard that 213 00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:45,319 Speaker 1: she was amazing? Quote unquote To me, it's to me 214 00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:51,040 Speaker 1: it seems uh oh, ingratiating and patronizing. I say a 215 00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:53,920 Speaker 1: mild You're the a hole because you seem completely unaware 216 00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:57,560 Speaker 1: of how this poor child met Opie responds, Uh oh, 217 00:10:57,720 --> 00:10:59,880 Speaker 1: I get that. It's a minefield now. I just didn't 218 00:10:59,880 --> 00:11:02,600 Speaker 1: realized there were so many live minds that no one 219 00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:08,560 Speaker 1: knew were there. Responding to uh, my comment about saying 220 00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:11,319 Speaker 1: that I heard she was amazing, you aren't the first 221 00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:14,200 Speaker 1: to question it. I wasn't. It wasn't meant in any 222 00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:16,480 Speaker 1: way other than a statement of fact. I've heard many 223 00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:19,480 Speaker 1: great things about her from her soon to be stepsisters. 224 00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:23,000 Speaker 1: She's she may have felt invisible, but I don't know 225 00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:26,000 Speaker 1: why she would. Maybe you're right and I am clueless. 226 00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:28,160 Speaker 1: She was at the dinner with members of her family 227 00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:33,439 Speaker 1: and my friend and her teens, not her teens. That's bro. 228 00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:37,560 Speaker 1: The boomer allegations are just throwing her teens, her teens, 229 00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:42,040 Speaker 1: and my friend and my friend for tea my friend 230 00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:46,880 Speaker 1: and her teens her teen friends.

It's one hundred 244 00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:30,720 Speaker 1: percent non personal, and don't judge her too harshly. She's 245 00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:33,400 Speaker 1: probably in a very confused period of her life, which, 246 00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:37,320 Speaker 1: in fairness, fourteen year olds in the new step parent relationship. Yeah, 247 00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:38,280 Speaker 1: thanks for brewing. 248 00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:44,440 Speaker 3: Also, all right, even if you have a very you know, comfortable, solid, 249 00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:49,800 Speaker 3: unchanging family dynamic, the changes going on inside the fourteen 250 00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:53,560 Speaker 3: year old body are are amazing and scary. 251 00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:56,080 Speaker 2: The hormones be hormone. The hormones be hormone. 252 00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:58,280 Speaker 1: That's what happens. Great time for Anthony to walk in. 253 00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:03,480 Speaker 1: Obi says, thank you. I don't as in, don't judge 254 00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:05,679 Speaker 1: her too harshly. As far as judging her harshly, I 255 00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:08,120 Speaker 1: intend on ignoring her in the future. If she approaches 256 00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:10,800 Speaker 1: me at a later date, I will be kind. I 257 00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:13,640 Speaker 1: see a lot of your comments got downvoted, wasn't by me, 258 00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:16,680 Speaker 1: wasn't me. It seems that you have a kind heart 259 00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:20,560 Speaker 1: and perhaps are looking through different understanding eyes. I'm on 260 00:13:20,640 --> 00:13:23,319 Speaker 1: the spectrum. Thus, I don't mind criticism when I'm wrong, 261 00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:26,760 Speaker 1: nor do I mind differences of opinion. Why the post 262 00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:30,360 Speaker 1: asking glad most people said not the A hole. I'm 263 00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:33,400 Speaker 1: not looking for approval here, just that I acted accordingly. 264 00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:35,920 Speaker 1: She most definitely is in a confused state right now 265 00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:40,920 Speaker 1: personally not a fan, but not worth holding a grudge either. Thanks, 266 00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:44,440 Speaker 1: and I'm going to go down to this final irrelevant 267 00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:47,240 Speaker 1: comment down here, A commenter says, not the A hole, 268 00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:50,160 Speaker 1: she was being deliberately rude or else possibly on the spectrum. 269 00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:52,960 Speaker 1: I have the wonder what was the meldown about. Opie 270 00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:56,600 Speaker 1: responds that her space was violated. I reached to get 271 00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:59,199 Speaker 1: the catch up, but did not touch her. The comments 272 00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:03,040 Speaker 1: I read the more where I'm realizing the meltdown definitely wasn't. 273 00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:04,000 Speaker 2: About the catchup. 274 00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:06,840 Speaker 1: I truly hope the family works everything out a lot 275 00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:10,800 Speaker 1: for mind the scenes is coming out. Yeah, once again, 276 00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:13,439 Speaker 1: I think I think OPI has had before we get 277 00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:16,160 Speaker 1: this update real quick. I think op has a very 278 00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:18,720 Speaker 1: fair and metered response. She's like, I don't hold it personally, 279 00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:21,120 Speaker 1: but I'm also just gonna like not engage and kind 280 00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:23,520 Speaker 1: of just like distance. It seems like there's it's a 281 00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:25,560 Speaker 1: tumultuous time and I'm atching out. 282 00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:29,560 Speaker 3: I also think he's like learning a lot in these posts. 283 00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:33,160 Speaker 3: He's like he's going to Reddit to learn right now. 284 00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:36,120 Speaker 3: And I think that that one comment that got down voted, 285 00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:38,200 Speaker 3: it's like, oh, look at it through her perspective, there's 286 00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:41,440 Speaker 3: a lot changing. So like I feel, really, you know, 287 00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:44,200 Speaker 3: maybe he was like a little bit behind and understanding, 288 00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:46,600 Speaker 3: but he's finally catching up. 289 00:14:46,680 --> 00:14:47,080 Speaker 2: That's right. 290 00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:51,360 Speaker 1: OPI is also a woman. Female, you have female, so 291 00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:56,040 Speaker 1: just pretend he said she So guys, Opie was not 292 00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:58,920 Speaker 1: was voted not the ahole, not the a hole for 293 00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:02,240 Speaker 1: invading the space to the ketchup.

I walked out of therapy, and 531 00:27:37,760 --> 00:27:41,320 Speaker 3: we have an edit, we have an update, we have 532 00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:47,639 Speaker 3: relevant comments, and we have another thick, juicy update before 533 00:27:47,680 --> 00:27:50,159 Speaker 3: we get into that, is Op the a hole for 534 00:27:50,280 --> 00:27:56,200 Speaker 3: walking out of family therapy and basically throwing down that knowledge. 535 00:27:56,280 --> 00:28:01,080 Speaker 1: Honestly, even do we know Op's ah, I'm assuming eighteen, Okay, Op, 536 00:28:01,119 --> 00:28:05,959 Speaker 1: he's eighteen. OPI literally just laid out the receipts and 537 00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:09,760 Speaker 1: let them speak for themselves. There was no like over 538 00:28:09,840 --> 00:28:13,480 Speaker 1: dramatic yelling all of this stuff. I think Op communicated 539 00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:19,440 Speaker 1: it in a way. And Anthony was saying earlier too that, uh, 540 00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:22,439 Speaker 1: sometimes you kind of like need to say something a 541 00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:24,920 Speaker 1: certain way, not necessarily like yelling or whatever, but you 542 00:28:25,040 --> 00:28:27,760 Speaker 1: kind of got to be just like super directed, straightforward, 543 00:28:27,880 --> 00:28:30,760 Speaker 1: I think Opie was super directed, straightforward without crossing the 544 00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:33,960 Speaker 1: line of becoming like an a hole. 545 00:28:34,119 --> 00:28:34,520 Speaker 2: Yeah it was. 546 00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:37,280 Speaker 3: There was no yelling involved. And also, if there's anywhere 547 00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:39,840 Speaker 3: to come clean, it is family therapy. So I feel 548 00:28:39,840 --> 00:28:42,280 Speaker 3: like it was the right context. It wasn't in front 549 00:28:42,320 --> 00:28:45,200 Speaker 3: of a bunch of people, like in terms of in public. 550 00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:48,880 Speaker 3: It was the right context. It was the right delivery. 551 00:28:48,960 --> 00:28:51,560 Speaker 3: I feel like there is no way op is an 552 00:28:51,600 --> 00:28:55,160 Speaker 3: a hole here.

They'd been more mad 669 00:34:42,360 --> 00:34:44,480 Speaker 3: at him than anything else and told him if he 670 00:34:44,520 --> 00:34:46,600 Speaker 3: can't go to mind, then he doesn't need to go 671 00:34:46,680 --> 00:34:49,840 Speaker 3: to theirs.

But it sounds like it sounds like the 674 00:35:01,320 --> 00:35:05,920 Speaker 3: dad is doing everything he can to ingratiate himself to 675 00:35:06,080 --> 00:35:07,800 Speaker 3: his new wife. 676 00:35:08,520 --> 00:35:14,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's it is. It is just so tragic. Also, 677 00:35:14,480 --> 00:35:17,160 Speaker 1: the friend's parents, that is like the type of parent 678 00:35:17,320 --> 00:35:21,040 Speaker 1: I will aspire, Yeah, because that that to me is 679 00:35:21,320 --> 00:35:22,000 Speaker 1: Jeff's kiss. 680 00:35:22,080 --> 00:35:22,239 Speaker 2: Yeah. 681 00:35:22,320 --> 00:35:25,239 Speaker 3: Get all the kids, yeah, and be kind to them, 682 00:35:25,280 --> 00:35:27,880 Speaker 3: you know, I hope adopt the Latchkey kids. 683 00:35:28,040 --> 00:35:31,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, adopt the Lashki kids. I kind of hope maybe 684 00:35:31,760 --> 00:35:34,279 Speaker 1: that there's an awakening and there can be some sort 685 00:35:34,280 --> 00:35:38,080 Speaker 1: of reconciliation. Alternatively, I think what OPI said of like OPI, 686 00:35:38,080 --> 00:35:40,520 Speaker 1: he's like, hey, look, I'm not even mad for you 687 00:35:40,600 --> 00:35:43,120 Speaker 1: to go off and like have your family, but I 688 00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:45,680 Speaker 1: just want to go back to the people that have 689 00:35:46,120 --> 00:35:48,640 Speaker 1: actually been family to me and go to contact. So 690 00:35:48,640 --> 00:35:50,000 Speaker 1: I just don't have to deal with this mess. 691 00:35:50,120 --> 00:35:53,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly, kind of super fair. 692 00:35:53,440 --> 00:35:58,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, well, I think OPI is incredibly independent. OPI is 693 00:35:58,280 --> 00:36:03,120 Speaker 3: independent financially and emotionally. Yeah, And so I think, like, 694 00:36:04,040 --> 00:36:06,480 Speaker 3: I don't even know, like, is there any I don't 695 00:36:06,480 --> 00:36:08,520 Speaker 3: know if there's anything the dad can do. I think 696 00:36:08,560 --> 00:36:13,279 Speaker 3: it is the like unless unless he says, I now 697 00:36:13,360 --> 00:36:17,400 Speaker 3: realize how terrible I've been treating you. I don't expect 698 00:36:17,400 --> 00:36:20,960 Speaker 3: you to forgive me right now, but I will work 699 00:36:21,120 --> 00:36:24,440 Speaker 3: to prove that I care about you and rebuild trust. 700 00:36:24,680 --> 00:36:27,480 Speaker 3: And I know it may take years, but I'm willing 701 00:36:27,520 --> 00:36:29,800 Speaker 3: to start. If you can give me another chance, I 702 00:36:29,840 --> 00:36:31,960 Speaker 3: think that's the only thing that he can say. And 703 00:36:32,040 --> 00:36:34,239 Speaker 3: if she chooses to not give him another chance, then 704 00:36:34,280 --> 00:36:35,359 Speaker 3: that's you know, up. 705 00:36:35,239 --> 00:36:36,880 Speaker 1: To her, and it is what it is. You did 706 00:36:37,280 --> 00:36:39,080 Speaker 1: nothing less than that level of a bit. 707 00:36:39,160 --> 00:36:42,760 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, but there is an update, Paul, there's no goodness. 708 00:36:42,920 --> 00:36:48,319 Speaker 3: So four days later update because a lot of people 709 00:36:48,360 --> 00:36:50,000 Speaker 3: will worry about me not being able to get my 710 00:36:50,080 --> 00:36:53,600 Speaker 3: things from my biofather's house and going back to therapy. 711 00:36:53,920 --> 00:36:57,560 Speaker 3: Turns out it's not even yet necessary. After my last post, 712 00:36:57,640 --> 00:37:00,560 Speaker 3: my stepmother wanted us all to go to the Lakehouse. 713 00:37:00,880 --> 00:37:04,719 Speaker 3: That's her happy place, safe space, sanctuary, she says, and 714 00:37:04,719 --> 00:37:07,560 Speaker 3: it's her answer to everything. She wants the boys out. 715 00:37:07,719 --> 00:37:10,640 Speaker 3: She sends my biofather and her sons to the lake house. 716 00:37:11,080 --> 00:37:15,760 Speaker 3: Time with daughter, lake house, time alone, lakehouse by herself. 717 00:37:16,040 --> 00:37:19,000 Speaker 3: She does photography there and she's right, it does look 718 00:37:19,040 --> 00:37:22,560 Speaker 3: like a postcard two story cabin style. They never took 719 00:37:22,600 --> 00:37:25,120 Speaker 3: me for the girls trips or boys' trips, only when 720 00:37:25,120 --> 00:37:30,279 Speaker 3: everyone went together. So my step siblings won't call biofather 721 00:37:30,400 --> 00:37:34,640 Speaker 3: dad anymore. My stepmom says, if he isn't their dad 722 00:37:34,760 --> 00:37:38,880 Speaker 3: and she isn't my mom, why are they even married? 723 00:37:39,560 --> 00:37:40,080 Speaker 1: Shut up. 724 00:37:40,760 --> 00:37:44,880 Speaker 3: My biofather asked if she wanted a divorce, and she 725 00:37:45,080 --> 00:37:50,280 Speaker 3: said she didn't sign up for the drama. They argued, 726 00:37:50,640 --> 00:37:53,680 Speaker 3: and we went to hang out by the lake. We've 727 00:37:53,719 --> 00:37:57,759 Speaker 3: been getting along great now against the parents, which I 728 00:37:57,800 --> 00:38:03,160 Speaker 3: didn't see humming. I guess like the step siblings. 729 00:38:02,760 --> 00:38:05,600 Speaker 1: I've joined after that whole thing. They were like, you 730 00:38:05,640 --> 00:38:09,480 Speaker 1: know what, You're right, We're riding with you, f dad. 731 00:38:09,840 --> 00:38:13,000 Speaker 3: Anyway, we went back to therapy yesterday and my stepsis 732 00:38:13,080 --> 00:38:18,399 Speaker 3: brought up that they are getting divorced. Biofather said, if 733 00:38:18,400 --> 00:38:21,640 Speaker 3: they can work it out in therapy. Therapist asked if 734 00:38:21,640 --> 00:38:24,399 Speaker 3: it could be amicable, because it's obvious that they're cold 735 00:38:24,440 --> 00:38:28,239 Speaker 3: to each other. Stepmom said her kids could see biofather, 736 00:38:28,640 --> 00:38:32,160 Speaker 3: but she would just want her place. He said that 737 00:38:32,320 --> 00:38:35,919 Speaker 3: wasn't possible because it's actually mine because my mom had 738 00:38:35,920 --> 00:38:39,560 Speaker 3: it before they were married and it's part of the prenup. 739 00:38:39,920 --> 00:38:42,319 Speaker 2: Let's freaking go. 740 00:38:42,800 --> 00:38:45,759 Speaker 1: So does that mean the house was passed down to 741 00:38:45,800 --> 00:38:47,880 Speaker 1: Ope via the trust? 742 00:38:48,160 --> 00:38:51,759 Speaker 2: I believe so? I believe so. 743 00:38:52,520 --> 00:38:56,640 Speaker 3: Stepmom was livid and ugly cried mad all the way home, 744 00:38:57,080 --> 00:39:00,839 Speaker 3: then asked about the house we live in. My biofather 745 00:39:01,280 --> 00:39:04,000 Speaker 3: tried to get her out of the kitchen, but she screamed, 746 00:39:04,040 --> 00:39:06,520 Speaker 3: and he admitted that my grandpa gave it to my 747 00:39:06,680 --> 00:39:11,720 Speaker 3: mom as a wedding gift before they were married. 748 00:39:12,400 --> 00:39:13,040 Speaker 2: Let's go. 749 00:39:14,880 --> 00:39:17,400 Speaker 3: Turns out he won't let me move out because the 750 00:39:17,560 --> 00:39:24,440 Speaker 3: house is actually mine since I turned eighteen. So oh 751 00:39:24,560 --> 00:39:29,800 Speaker 3: he owns the house. Ohpe, he can kick them out. 752 00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:33,040 Speaker 3: She split the savings because they had been living way 753 00:39:33,120 --> 00:39:37,280 Speaker 3: below their means. He told her most of the savings 754 00:39:37,360 --> 00:39:40,920 Speaker 3: slash certificates of deposits where accounts set up for me 755 00:39:41,560 --> 00:39:44,640 Speaker 3: by Mom's parents. She has been crying in her room 756 00:39:44,719 --> 00:39:48,319 Speaker 3: and says, I'm selfish for not letting her have the 757 00:39:48,400 --> 00:39:52,920 Speaker 3: lake house my great grandpa built and gave to my grandpa, 758 00:39:53,000 --> 00:39:59,239 Speaker 3: who gave it to my mom. And we have a 759 00:39:59,360 --> 00:40:05,400 Speaker 3: relevant and some updates from Op. It's a short but 760 00:40:05,719 --> 00:40:10,319 Speaker 3: very juicy update. But also you can see us live 761 00:40:10,440 --> 00:40:14,200 Speaker 3: every weekday at three pm PSD. But so just tap 762 00:40:14,320 --> 00:40:18,439 Speaker 3: her profile, but really quick, before we get to the 763 00:40:18,480 --> 00:40:23,280 Speaker 3: grand finale of this story, please, I believe what's happened 764 00:40:23,440 --> 00:40:28,800 Speaker 3: is OP owns both the lake house and the actual house, 765 00:40:29,320 --> 00:40:34,320 Speaker 3: plus a trust that the mom left, so OP kind 766 00:40:34,360 --> 00:40:40,080 Speaker 3: of owns everything everything, and the dad and the stepmom 767 00:40:40,239 --> 00:40:44,040 Speaker 3: own nothing. And it seems like the step kids are 768 00:40:44,040 --> 00:40:48,360 Speaker 3: on Op's side and the step mom and stepdad or 769 00:40:48,400 --> 00:40:51,080 Speaker 3: at stepmom and bio dad are fighting with each other, 770 00:40:51,760 --> 00:40:54,960 Speaker 3: and the step mom wants to leave, the bio dad 771 00:40:55,160 --> 00:40:59,040 Speaker 3: wants to stay, but all the kids hate them, and 772 00:40:59,120 --> 00:41:02,120 Speaker 3: I think it seems like the family's kind of imploding. 773 00:41:02,360 --> 00:41:06,239 Speaker 1: Dad is about to take the fattest l of any 774 00:41:06,280 --> 00:41:10,680 Speaker 1: family splitting in at least okay, storytime mystery and probably 775 00:41:10,719 --> 00:41:12,560 Speaker 1: in the history of the space time continuum. Yeah, I 776 00:41:12,640 --> 00:41:15,600 Speaker 1: mean it doesn't get worse than you. Literally, he spent 777 00:41:15,800 --> 00:41:18,120 Speaker 1: all these years like, oh, like let me, let me 778 00:41:18,400 --> 00:41:21,400 Speaker 1: buddy up to the kids and can basically pretend my 779 00:41:21,480 --> 00:41:24,399 Speaker 1: own biological child doesn't exist, just to you know, get 780 00:41:24,440 --> 00:41:26,799 Speaker 1: in with the mom. Now the mom doesn't want him, 781 00:41:26,960 --> 00:41:29,319 Speaker 1: the step kids don't want him. He doesn't have any 782 00:41:29,360 --> 00:41:31,919 Speaker 1: of the houses, and Opie's got the trust fund both 783 00:41:31,960 --> 00:41:32,440 Speaker 1: the houses. 784 00:41:33,160 --> 00:41:38,120 Speaker 3: Wow, kind of kind of sweet justice, beautiful just this 785 00:41:38,160 --> 00:41:42,160 Speaker 3: is being served. But we do have final comment to 786 00:41:42,200 --> 00:41:45,560 Speaker 3: close out this story. So wild black Hat says, what 787 00:41:45,680 --> 00:41:48,440 Speaker 3: in the world so she never put a cent towards 788 00:41:48,480 --> 00:41:51,440 Speaker 3: those and somehow never asked herself in all those years 789 00:41:51,640 --> 00:41:54,120 Speaker 3: how the assets would be how the assets would be 790 00:41:54,160 --> 00:41:57,360 Speaker 3: split in the event of a divorce. Opie responds, I 791 00:41:57,480 --> 00:42:01,640 Speaker 3: doubt she ever thought about divorce until last week everything 792 00:42:01,719 --> 00:42:05,400 Speaker 3: kind of exploded. Since they don't have a prenup, she 793 00:42:05,640 --> 00:42:10,080 Speaker 3: probably thought she would get half of everything. Well, she 794 00:42:10,160 --> 00:42:13,719 Speaker 3: will get half of everything, which is nothing because I 795 00:42:13,719 --> 00:42:19,919 Speaker 3: ain't zero fat zero zero. Yeah, dude, what a satisfying 796 00:42:20,160 --> 00:42:23,600 Speaker 3: satisfying And it's just nice when people, bad people get 797 00:42:23,600 --> 00:42:24,280 Speaker 3: their comeuppance. 798 00:42:24,440 --> 00:42:28,520 Speaker 1: And you know, like op like, if if any eighteen 799 00:42:28,560 --> 00:42:31,319 Speaker 1: year old is to inherit, you know, a lake house, 800 00:42:31,360 --> 00:42:33,200 Speaker 1: a main house of trust on all this stuff, it 801 00:42:33,239 --> 00:42:34,439 Speaker 1: should be someone like Hope. 802 00:42:34,560 --> 00:42:37,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, because OPI has basically been living independently for the 803 00:42:37,960 --> 00:42:41,680 Speaker 3: last like few years, and so it seems like op 804 00:42:41,840 --> 00:42:43,280 Speaker 3: has a pretty good head on their shoulders. 805 00:42:43,360 --> 00:42:45,799 Speaker 1: And the juxtaposition of the last story where it was like, 806 00:42:45,880 --> 00:42:48,280 Speaker 1: you know, of the teen like moving the ketchup bottle 807 00:42:48,320 --> 00:42:52,240 Speaker 1: around just to like be able to kill at someone, yeah, 808 00:42:52,320 --> 00:42:56,280 Speaker 1: versus like, hey, look, OPI wasn't even vindictive.
