FAN Supreme Court: Can Opener Dad

[Deleted]

I come to you today in search of a ruling. To be judged? CAN OPENER DAD: twitter.com/johnroderick/status/1345508384011816960


Basically, dad realizes he never taught his kid how to open cans using a can opener. Dad then makes kid figure out every step of how a can opener works - including each mechanical element and a breakdown on the overall philosophy of its design - and twitter is fiercely divided. On one hand, maybe he taught his kids something about perseverance. On the other hand, the kid is hungry.



Where do you land on this, fellow judges?

So I saw that story and I'll be honest, I don't have kids so I don't know how long kids are supposed to go in between eating and such. It also depends on if the kid's ok. I don't know if the kid saying their "head feels fuzzy" is because of lack of food or they were just saying words and don't really mean it like kids do. At the end of the day I'd say it revolves around how the kid is and it also depends on the type of person and/or parent he is. I don't know.

But...

What I do know is that some tweets of his were uncovered shortly after and...he's a piece of shit. Saying slurs, insulting other races, saying positive things about Hitler, oh, the works. He's an asshole.

So f*** Bean Dad.

Man, I feel like there is just a weekly "Milkshake Duck" story at this point.

Also, I had to help take care of a 7-year old a few months ago. While she was here, I showed her how I used a can opener, then let her open a can. Talked her through making sure to line up the opener with the lid and bada-bing. Who knew I could have internet content if I'd just been a jerk about it.

"I never taught my kid something, it's cleary their fault!"

Let me get this straight. Dad is too busy doing a jigsaw puzzle to teach his child a common life lesson that he probably should have taught her years before. Better yet it is a process that creates a razor sharp disc of metal that can easily tear through flesh. My verdict is that the dad is a complete tool.

And for the record, I have a scar across the entire pad of my thumb from when I cut myself to the bone with a can lid as a child.

Guy sounds like a total asshole.

Also I'm not entirely sure I've ever actually used a can opener myself come to think of it. I don't cook much.
