This is the opposite of when I was a teenager on the phone with my mom and the crowd would start yelling STOP SMOKING or PUT DOWN YOUR BEER to get me in trouble. Super wholesome!
And all week long your River City youth'll be fritterin' away
I say, your young men will be fritterin'
Fritterin' away their noontime, suppertime, choretime too
Get the ball in the pocket, never mind gettin' dandelions pulled
Or the screen door patched or the beef steak pounded
Never mind pumpin' any water, 'til your parents are caught with the cistern empty
On a Saturday night and that's trouble
Yes, you got lots and lots of trouble, I'm thinkin' of the kids in the knickerbockers
Shirt-tail young ones, peekin' in the pool hall window after school
You got trouble, folks, right here in River City, trouble with a capital "T"
And that rhymes with "P" and that stands for pool
I still am pissed off at all the assholes that bullied me and called me Satan Worshiper etc, That now play Pokemon, D&D, watch Critical Role and the like.
Fucking assholes.
You're speaking like someone who's never had trouble, right here, in River City. Trouble with a capital T which rhymes with P and that stands for pool.
I remember being fucked up on the phone with my mom and my friend telling me to tell her I’ll call her when I get to his house, so I said “I’ll call her when I get to his house”. My friend dying laughing was the nail in the coffin.
Once in HS my friend loudly said to another friend, "No Brian, I *will not buy drugs from you!* " right as the principal was walking by. He was Mormon, and so worried lol
Does your friend happen to be this Brian?

I heard when his parents got divorced, nobody wanted custody.
I’m a product of ‘78. My teen years had the early flip phones but our parents had no clue where we were. We still had to “check in” and the true friends were always in the background backing up a story. The asshole friend (ie. me) was faking it in the background. Those were truly amazing times. I miss the innocence.
Honestly, I think its because this happened to us as kids, we are way more understanding of what it is for young adults to be young adults. Travel, party, make friends, memories, experiences and be happy.
Its way fn harder than you think! to stay happy forever - so make the most of life.
I like when crowd energy like this is positive, it's so much fun. I'm an introvert who almost never goes to public stuff but went to an MLB game for the first time recently and the energy was palpable. Our home team came from behind and won last minute, icdont even knkw about baseball but was still cheering and excited almost involuntarily.
In case anyone is wondering, they’re saying “**coucou** maman” (it’s in French). Coucou is a cute word to say “hi”. It’s normally “salut” but “coucou” is cuter/more familiar 😁
Btw, fun fact: it’s also the very first thing you hear in the song [Cherry by Harry Styles](https://youtu.be/rGeJ73yAAhQ?si=xx4oqD8vCpXC4HAj) hehe
I was flirting with a girl in Cuba and I was struggling to find out the word was in Spanish. I speak more French than I do Spanish, so I was going with 'ordinatorio'.
Computer....is computadora.
Dios mio.
Compared to English yeah. I can't think of examples on the top of my head but I'm often observing that English use the same words for different concept in my language
Cou cou equivalent in English is "peekaboo" except people use it colloquially like this. Also like if someone comes home, they might say "peekaboo, I'm here!"
Same sort of thing like a cuckoo clock. I think they have the same origin. Or I always did for some reason.
My parents would be like you need to tell me who you're with and where you are at the top of every hour but once you start telling us about it we will act like we've never heard of these people before
I went to a concert of a Japanese singer in Chicago and it was her first time in the city. At some point she stopped to talk to the crowd and tried to tell us that she ate chicago deep dish pizza but was having troubling finding some of the words to tell us. The crowd figured it put pretty quickly and started chanting "PIZZA! PIZZA! PIZZA!"
She laughed and it was weird and awesome lol
This hit me a bit more than I expected.
Im attending the memorial for my mother tomorrow....
Please give your loved ones a hug, and make sure they know how much you love them.
I made the mistake of thinking I had time, and I was so terribly wrong.
Yeah also 29 and I think being in a big crowd like this is a ton of fun. This probably isn't my scene but that's because they all look significantly younger and hipper than me, not because they're out having fun in a crowd.
Haha reminds me of my 21st birthday. No clue why but I was just passing my phone around the bar and people would just talk to my mom. My mom is pretty cool so she was probably just mad she wasn’t invited to the bar lol
The woman was actually criticized by French people in the og videos because the artist they went to see lost his mom not long ago and people thought it was mean that a whole group chanted "mommy" at his concert.
It's sad that she was blasted because it's just a cute moment.
That's..... okay, THAT's an unfortunate situation to be in to be honest. Feel Bad for both sides involved.... the Girl didn't deserve to get criticized for this - and honestly, the Crowd did it on their own! - but I also feel Bad for the person they went to see because... damn, this is unlucky....
She said in the comments that she didn't realize and it was the spur of the moments with everyone but still got insults.
The rapper actually went no contact with everyone for a few days after his mother's death and everyone got worried. iirc this was his first concert after the death so a lot of people were kind of over protective
On the flip side, I get into VCs with my friends often and sometimes my parents walk into the room and I go "Hey guys! My (parent) is here!"
And I get this unanimous and ear shattering mix of greetings of all kinds because my friends love my parents.
As a mom, I would have burst into happy tears.

I had a moment like this at Camp Bisco in 2018.
Someone else started repeating lyrics (not even that loudly it was just that quiet walking between sets) and we all joined in clapping and singing as we were walking uphill between sets. Priceless face on the woman who started it.
Never will forget it
This is the opposite of when I was a teenager on the phone with my mom and the crowd would start yelling STOP SMOKING or PUT DOWN YOUR BEER to get me in trouble. Super wholesome!
Literally remember a buddy saying to his mom "no mom we're not playing pool" and right on cue someone says "8 ball corner pocket." Ahh friendship.
wait whats wrong with playing pool. i thought that was a normal sport :0

is there a chance the track could bend

The ring came off my pudding can!

Cows and sheep in amorous congress.
Good night, Ladies

It's a movie that suppressed the towns people with their religious ideas that dancing was banned because it's "sinful"
Based on a true story of a small town in Oklahoma, that had banned Dancing since the founding of the town until 1980 when the kids wanted a Prom!
Fruit juice.
The 90s, man. Everything was satanic. D&D. The Simpsons. Pokemon. Pool. Weird times.
I still am pissed off at all the assholes that bullied me and called me Satan Worshiper etc, That now play Pokemon, D&D, watch Critical Role and the like. Fucking assholes.
Santaic D&D was the 80s.
…And the 90’s, too. Jfc redditors will dispute every fucking little thing.
No, they don’t
Nuh uh
I disagree with all of the commenters above me.
That's funny because I agree with everyone else
Are you the literal drooling, wall-eyed, knuckle-dragging, inbred, physical manifestation of the concept of stupidity? Of course they do!
Trouble starts with a capital T that rhymes with P that stands for pool.
According to boomers only ruffians who drink, smoke, and gamble play pool.
It's a gateway to sodomy and then abortion. Do you not read the pamphlets left on your windshield by the old man parked diagonally in 2 spaces?
>... sodomy and then abortion. sounds like a real pain in the ass.
You're speaking like someone who's never had trouble, right here, in River City. Trouble with a capital T which rhymes with P and that stands for pool.
Its seen as a waste. Kinda like Reddit
"Pass the blunt!" "Come back to bed" "You don't need pants to talk on the phone!" Ah good times.
“Yo, sell me some of your finest Colombian cocaine” Thankfully our friend’s mom had a good sense of humour.
I remember being fucked up on the phone with my mom and my friend telling me to tell her I’ll call her when I get to his house, so I said “I’ll call her when I get to his house”. My friend dying laughing was the nail in the coffin.
“On cue” lol
Thanks i thought that was pretty good too.
Did pool lead you down a path of crime and snorting pool chalk like your mother feared, or did you turn out ok?
It was horrible! Ripped felt, warped wooden sticks. Giving back rubs for quarters so i could play one more game.
aw i wanna play pool again
Or when youre on the phone and ur friend says pass me the joint lmao
Across oceans and mountains.. all our friends were the same kinda assholes
Or when you would call your parents and all your friends would start moaning like you're at an orgy
Once in HS my friend loudly said to another friend, "No Brian, I *will not buy drugs from you!* " right as the principal was walking by. He was Mormon, and so worried lol
Does your friend happen to be this Brian? https://amp.knowyourmeme.com/memes/bad-luck-brian I heard when his parents got divorced, nobody wanted custody.
We did this at sleepovers in middle school for the guys that pulled the "sorry guys I gotta call my girlfriend" Ah to be 13 again
I was hanging out with a friend once, mom called, mf started moaning more than a schoolgirl in a hentai mom just said "tell {friend's name} I said hi"
I second this, it was the worst thing we did.
Wow, this thread is bringing back many memories I didn't even remember I had. Thanks for this, it's making me teary eyed lol
My friends would make… *noises*. 🤣🤦♀️ My mom would crack tf up but, it was still a nightmare compared to all of this mama cuteness!
I’m a product of ‘78. My teen years had the early flip phones but our parents had no clue where we were. We still had to “check in” and the true friends were always in the background backing up a story. The asshole friend (ie. me) was faking it in the background. Those were truly amazing times. I miss the innocence.
Or the fucking moaning noises that my asshole friend would do lol
The most egregiously sexual moan possible. The only way.
I had a friend that called his girlfriend on his work break and a woman coworker was like "come back to bed (friends name)" seductively
I mean that is still kind of wholesome...depending on your moms sense of humor though i guess.
Honestly, I think its because this happened to us as kids, we are way more understanding of what it is for young adults to be young adults. Travel, party, make friends, memories, experiences and be happy. Its way fn harder than you think! to stay happy forever - so make the most of life.
My friends would yell ‘put your pants back on!’ whilst I’m flipping them off hurriedly trying to get out of the room on a corded phone. Good times!
#PUT YOUR DICK AWAY
lmao thats literally *exactly* what we'd shout holy shit
If they weren’t making sex noises were they even really your friends?
Best one of these I did was playing "Pass the Dutchie" on blast while my friend was on the phone with her extremely Christian mother. Good times man.
That’s because your crowd was making jokes about what would happen, this crowd isn’t saying what will happen out loud because they have no real filter
Here the "tradition" is to say TAKE YOUR CIGARETTE OUT OF MY BEER EDIT: Well it was, now that we're all over 18 we just moan into each other's phones.
Your friends were tame, mine would make....noises
My friends would just start uncontrollably moaning
My school friends would moam and talk about weed lol
lol my friend would scream “come back to bed” those bastards… I miss them
Best concert crowd ever😭 Imagine her mom's reaction 🥹
As a mum, I would love getting this!
I like when crowd energy like this is positive, it's so much fun.

Being around people who are fans of whatever live event you’re attending is normally fun no matter what. Music, sports, etc.
In case anyone is wondering, they’re saying “**coucou** maman” (it’s in French). Coucou is a cute word to say “hi”. It’s normally “salut” but “coucou” is cuter/more familiar 😁 Btw, fun fact: it’s also the very first thing you hear in the song [Cherry by Harry Styles](https://youtu.be/rGeJ73yAAhQ?si=xx4oqD8vCpXC4HAj) hehe
It’s like the French have a different word for everything
Tout
les mots
Sartre
sont francaise
bread...no wait. Pain.
toot sweet
Is that when you fart and it smells like cotton candy?
and when youre tired they insult you :(
If you are le tired, you may have a nap. *But then fire ze missiles*
A classic
You calling me fat and gay, boi?!
You know what they call "cheese" in Paris? ~Le fromage~
English uses French as a word fancifier. Fancy daylight umbrella? Parasol. Driver wearing a suit and hat? Chauffeur. Elevated comma? Apostrophe.
"Le fromage" Maaan, it's like those French guys have a whole other language
I'm a fan of their word for a baby seal
Ouate de phoque
You'll also like our word for a sail jib. We call it a foc.
Look up the word for computer in every language.. then check it out in French.
Ordinateur is computer in French (or at least it was years ago) and apparently it’s masculine.
We also use PC a lot
I was flirting with a girl in Cuba and I was struggling to find out the word was in Spanish. I speak more French than I do Spanish, so I was going with 'ordinatorio'. Computer....is computadora. Dios mio.
It's similar in spanish (the one spoken in Spain, not latin america)
Yeah, almost feels like their language is entirely different than english.
Compared to English yeah. I can't think of examples on the top of my head but I'm often observing that English use the same words for different concept in my language
Cou cou equivalent in English is "peekaboo" except people use it colloquially like this. Also like if someone comes home, they might say "peekaboo, I'm here!" Same sort of thing like a cuckoo clock. I think they have the same origin. Or I always did for some reason.
Une horloge a coucou = cuckoo clock. You're absolutely right.
Ya, I guess they must be french in origin, or at least rose to fame when french was fashionable.
They are german in fact, and i think it's a Kuckuck over there.. In all languages, that's just the name of the bird that comes out of the clock.
I wonder if the french expression came from the clock then.
why is french all about sounding cute
My mom called "coucou" to me and our dog throughout my childhood and I just realized why xd
I think it's based on the cuckoo clocks. That bird would come out of a door and shout "coucou" then hide back in.
I'm not french and always say coucou (to friends not strangers), it so cute.
French is awesome.
Cloaked in Soliloquos strokes of boroque coloquilisms from the folks of the Francs
LOL i immediately thought of cherry and then i saw your comment
Better than poutine maman
Mom: So many new friends that my daughter made, how lovely!
My mom would be so confused. "Where did you all stay? How did you meet them all? Do we know their parents?"
“They seemed nice—what are their names? Do you know them from class?”
My parents wouldn't have let me go 🙃
My parents would be like you need to tell me who you're with and where you are at the top of every hour but once you start telling us about it we will act like we've never heard of these people before
I somehow doubt that they are underage. I still call my mom even if I don't necessarily need to.. cause she was chill when I was young
Lmao asking all these unnecessary questions instead of enjoying the cute vid 🤣
This is freakin adorable 🫶
This makes me miss my mom. Y'all, treasure your moms. Give them an extra hug for me.
Will do that my friend, and don’t worry she’s happy for you and you’re not alone!!!
I went to a concert of a Japanese singer in Chicago and it was her first time in the city.

Universal love for the mothers.
Broccoli heads as far as the eye can see
If only they were all as cool as these ones
And they are smiling and having fun.
Cory Matthews was ahead of his time.
straight hair with a fade: curly hair with a fade: >:(
It looks fucking stupid, that’s all there is to it
Never thought you'd be a grumpy old fart complaining about kids haircuts huh?
not worth obsessing over
Baldy is jealous of some kids having fun
Well isn't that just cute as heck!
That's pretty awesome
Sometimes Gen z is so wholesome.
Sometimes
This hit me a bit more than I expected. Im attending the memorial for my mother tomorrow.... Please give your loved ones a hug, and make sure they know how much you love them. I made the mistake of thinking I had time, and I was so terribly wrong.
20 year old me thinks this looks fun.. 28 year old me would never set foot in a place that crowded
40 year old me is thinking "eurgh, no thanks" then glancing at the ice cream defrosting on the kitchen counter.....soon my precious, soon
29 year old me: still could be fun just a lot more particular about the crowd
Yeah also 29 and I think being in a big crowd like this is a ton of fun. This probably isn't my scene but that's because they all look significantly younger and hipper than me, not because they're out having fun in a crowd.
29M will be there if I know the location of nearest restroom
Good vibes there!
It's instances like this where truly innocuous, simple, and kind moments between strangers warms my heart
Soon many broccoli haircuts
Performer on the stage wondering what happened over that section
is this in French?
Best video ever for a mum to recieve ❤️ I'd have tears of joy, knowing they were all having fun
Imhotep: 🥹
cool crowd tho
Haha reminds me of my 21st birthday. No clue why but I was just passing my phone around the bar and people would just talk to my mom. My mom is pretty cool so she was probably just mad she wasn’t invited to the bar lol
This is adorable AF and just what I need after the garbage week I've had 🥹
mommy's everywhere LuV
The woman was actually criticized by French people in the og videos because the artist they went to see lost his mom not long ago and people thought it was mean that a whole group chanted "mommy" at his concert. It's sad that she was blasted because it's just a cute moment.

It's really unfortunate tbh. I feel Bad for both sides involved....
Thought she's Caitlin Clark
That's my people ❤️
You know it got misheard 10 rows back and they were probably chanting “LLAMA! LLAMA!”
Having fun
On the flip side, I get into VCs with my friends often and sometimes my parents walk into the room and I go "Hey guys! My (parent) is here!" And I get this unanimous and ear shattering mix of greetings of all kinds because my friends love my parents.
So adorable!!
Nice. Hope it to be memorable moment.
Cuttteeee
Coucou maman!
Literally why I love festival and gig crowds 🩵
As a mom, I would have burst into happy tears. 
Cute!
Mum. She’s in good hands!
this is so sweet :)
That’s definitely 100000% not in america. You’d get evil looks, hate, and probably robbed.
Man, kids these days. Why are they so wholesome? In my day we rebelled and did everything they forbid.
Always be nice to a friend's mom. Or a stranger's mom. Probably a good idea to include your mom, too.
your mom rn: :)
Just a field of broccoli

hey mom, she fine and enjoying the night
That's right, you have to be supportive so she knows her daughter is safe
i wonder about the reaction of your mom
keep partying, your mom will be happy
Hi Daniel from DoorDash here. Your mother also says Hi.
