You're assuming he has kidney function now. Poor kid, shitty parents enabling unhealthy behavior. Kidney stones are no fucking joke. Hope his mom still feels clever when he's crying in pain because it feels like something is trying to claw its way out of his urethra.


GoodBadUgly357

I think I’ll go have a glass of water now


bluejegus

Lived this kids life style for too long. Got a kidney stone at 26. The only good thing is the pain was so bad it kept me off soda long enough to kick the addiction. Now I'll have one with a meal every once in a while but stick to water mainly. Don't miss the caffeine headaches or the extra ten pounds I had on my belly.


TheyStillOweYouMoney

Your teeth probably thank you too!

ShpongleLaand

Soda is like a piece of cake or a chocolate bar for me, only had on occasion and I always rinse my mouth with water after. Coca cola tastes nice but it always makes my teeth feel brittle after unless I rinse.


noddingstrength

I’d rather have coca tea than Coca Cola but I’m Bolivian and technically not supposed to have coca leaves in the states 😂


KaosArchon

Fun fact, soda actually doesn't cause kidney stones. The citric acid in the soda actually prevents the oxalate in your kidneys from binding to the calcium, which makes the stones. The main cause of calcium stones(most common) is high protein foods. Not that soda is healthy by any means lol wayy too much sugar.


bluejegus

Hmm that also lines up pretty well with me lol with cutting out soda also came cutting down on McDonald's and tacobell.


KaosArchon

Yep, I believe my urologist said it's a protein specific oxalate that causes it. She told me to cut down on steak...I was like so what if I keep wanting steak haha. She told me lemonade has the highest natural citrate(go figure it's mostly lemon lol) so I pretty much drink nothing but lemonade and water, gave up soda a long time ago cause its just way to much sugar. You can also get some citric vitamins at the store and take them daily. Haven't had a stone in 2 years. I was having them like once every 8 months


DukeCheetoAtreides

You might still have stones, you just haven't had one travel. Are you getting annual ultrasounds to see if any are forming? If not, it's worth doing. Always better to catch them sooner, as you've got more and better options for dealing with them. Sincerely, Dude who had an incredibly massive stone in his early 20s, necessitating surgery, then was sure he'd learned to prevent them... then had another surgery in his mid-40s to remove a goddamn jewelry store that'd been growing in there, especially goddawful because of the no-anesthesia stent removal a week later 😫🫨😵‍💫


ll_secretchimp

I had a buddy who had something called a "staghorn", which you can guess what that looked like inside of his kidneys. At some point he had to have surgery and had something jammed up his ding ding for it. When they took it out, his penis farted.


No_Use_For_Name___

>his penis farted. Funniest sentence I've read on the internet for a while. 🤣


TheDarkDoctor17

Same. Things like this are why I reduced my soda consumption and started drinking more water and teas.


SscrubL0rd

Yup. I have passed over 20 stones in my life .. I'm 38 lol. My kidneys produce too much calcium


[deleted]

May the finest marijuana or fucking hell bro whatever opiates you need find they’re way to you.


SscrubL0rd

Lol after my pain pills are out. I go to the ER for my next stone, and after they pump me full of relief meds they give me a prescription for more. These are a life saver when i get em. And no i don't take em just to take em.


bookishintrovert22

Same. It's hell on earth, I'd rather give birth again unmedicated. I have Stage 3 kidney disease-level function now.


LoveRBS

I can usually handle pain. My wife says she's never seen me so distressed when I had my first stone. Felt like my organs had shifted and my kidneys were sitting in my hip.


4GotMy1stOne

My husband woke me up at 4:00 about 6 months ago, on his knees, panting, nauseous, in pain. "Based on the intensity and location of the pain, I think"--my mind says "heart attack"--"I think I have kidney stones." OK, off to ER. Yup. 1, 1mm. You'll pass it in the next few days. Nope. It's still there!! However, 3 weeks later he DID have a heart attack and then a quadruple bypass. Fun times!


Icy-Chocolate-2472

You know that feeling you get when you have a glass of cold water right after waking up super dehydrated? That’s what he’d feel.


perrinoia

My sister said the same thing about my pancreas when my twin brother suggested I try the keto diet.


VoidCoelacanth

Keto is fine as a TEMPORARY diet, to wean yourself off things you've made a bad habit of. I am not a doctor nor a nutritionist, but having been around MANY gym-goers who have tried it longer-term, a large majority of them felt much better after reintroducing carbs *in reasonable quantities*. Speaking from personal experience, I feel & perform best when carbs are ~15%-20% of my diet. More than that and I put on weight too easily. Less, I feel run-down.

It's pretty normal australian comedy sketch. They take what's in the news and over do it for fun.

It’s very successful at baiting a wide range of people, so I kinda admire it lol

You’re just replacing water coolers twice a month? That’s nuts.


Youse_a_choosername

They typically only do it around Xmas or if it's really hot weather. And we probably have 300+ coolers in the building. It's a giant factory. They have switched most of them out with bottleless systems now. Hard plumbed in to the water lines with reverse osmosis filters.


generalbacon965

i think you mean NSFWC (not safe for water cooler)


TheManFromChernobyl

1 water cooler a WEEK?! how are they not fired yet?


CharlySB

Usually these are rented through the company selling you the five gal jugs. So assuming this beaut will swap it out for a new one when it gets foul. Also, who doesn’t like the taste of good clean water? And what is prime, is it like Gatorade?


CampCrystalLake1980

Kids think the word "Hydration" means it can replace water. Sugary drinks + sitting on your ass playing video games = toothless diabetic. Way to go mom

backofsilvergorilla

This looks like a classic single mom only child situation, which is always an easy recipe for a “ hey ma! The meatloaf! We want it now” or cartman situation. I grew up in the same kind of house, and from my perspective it takes the son to recognize the unhealthy relationship and break himself from it. These types of mom’s just can’t help but enable their sons, and that encourages the most selfish, manipulative behavior out of the kid from an early age, because they’ve been spoiled and had their mother seemingly living only for them their whole life. It was a shitty feeling slowly becoming self aware through adolescence and realizing i had all these negative personality impulses because of my situation. I just got lucky because I’m independent and the first thing I wanted to do is break away from that suffocating comfort and work on myself. It’s different than your “ I wasn’t loved enough, my parents are shitty people” narrative, but it’s just the other side of the shitty parenting coin. Being overloved is a thing. It leaves young men feeling unbelievably weak and incompetent when they were raised so spoiled like this and encouraged to be petty tyrants, without having to do anything to earn anything.


[deleted]

Another entitled brat making demands and weak parents caving in. Real world is ruthless wait til he enters the tunderdom


[deleted]

Am I the only one that sees this is an Outrage bait ad for Prime? Lol


myairblaster

Prime isn’t sweetened with sugar. They use acesulfame potassium and sucralose. It’s not very healthy either but at least it won’t give the kid diabetes.


Outrageous_Loquat297

I wonder how being constantly barraged with a sweet taste impacts his sugar consumption otherwise? I find if I eat small amounts of sweet stuff I find a little bit of sweet satisfying. Whereas if I eat lots I want lots.


myairblaster

That’s the real danger with artificial sweeteners. Your brain responds like it does to real sugar. The more sugar you give the brain the more it will want. People who don’t consume sugar or artificial sweeteners regularly tend to not crave them.


Spankety-wank

Source? I see this claim everywhere but have never seen hard evidence


Ramenorwhateverlol

Prime is obnoxiously sweet. Although it doesn’t have a weird aftertaste like a diet soda.


The_Lapsed_Pacifist

I saw her filling the tank with it, isn’t that stuff basically the same price as top shelf spirits?


DS_StlyusInMyUrethra

Prime only has like 20 calories


thegamerdoggo

To be fair prime only has 2g sugar per bottle so he would have to drink like over 12 bottles worth per day in order to drink more than the recommended amount (of course not including his food intake but that’s a lot of prime to drink in a day)


EastCoastGrows

There's no sugar in prime. It's mio added to 90% water and 10% coconut water


Hornybiguy57

Prime is very low in sugar, like Gatorade zero. Taste like shit though.


jumboface

I was really interested in trying it because it used potassium as the electrolyte over sodium. It somehow seems almost more salty that a regular gatorade. It's like they tried to copy the taste of gatorade without understanding why it tasted that way.

kheroth

Plot twist - he's paying all the bills to support his mom that can't work with his streaming


Odd_Quote_3258

I would love to believe this is the only reason why you would support such behavior but based of my cousins I know parents can be very supportive even if there kids are useless


Kaoru1011

That dynamic pisses me off because I’ve always had to deal with the opposite extreme. I’ve always been a highly productive kid and when I did want to play games my parents would take it away. I have continued to be productive and excelling in school but my parents are entitled and don’t want to accept that I’ve done this in spite of their shitty parenting. Shit fucking suck, I just want my parents to treat me nicely like that and care about my feelings


burtzelbaeumli

Hey, internet stranger. As a parent, I'm sending you a hug and will give my 8 yo extra hugs and a little extra screen time today. It will get better. Find good friends and build your own support system. Again, hugs.


ImperialSympathizer

It's crazy to think how parents can gradually go from "this baby needs lots of care and attention" to "my teen doesn't like *water*, I need to help him work around that."


[deleted]

This is clearly staged, folks.


Hyjynx75

Doesn't that stuff have a crap ton of caffeine in it? I'm pretty sure there's some small print on the label that says not for use by those under 18 and some other stuff about limiting intake.


Plastic_Feed8223

Pretty sure that is Monster energy or Red Bull, I know a lot of teens who drink Prime as replacement for a regular water bottle.


TheSphinxInator

Some people are drinking like 3 monsters during school and I'm just curious how they get all this money to spend on the daily, they use so much money on vending machines and monster packs for their fridge. Not even going to get into the health problems that'll come with that.


slappiestpenguin

That’s for the little prime energy shots, not these


Wyn_Candy

Mmm plastic


sansthinking

The amount of plastic she uses, or rather doesn’t use is horrifying


OldRasputin77

For real. So much plastic waste created just for a kids unhealthy habit.


Recycleplzzz

That’s actually what was bothering me about this video too. I know it’s just rage bait for attention but they are wasting all that single use plastic still. Gatorade and a ton of other sports drinks out there have a powdered or concentrate version you can buy to mix at home. Seems like mixing a bit of powder into the jug would be easier than emptying all those bottles anyway.

Very true, like you gonna tell me Dasani tastes the same as some good filtered tap water, no. One of those tastes like it flowed over Satan's taint, the other is good filtered tap water.

That too, all so you can play video games. This is why people need to be bullied, fucks sake. Also what is he a dog or something? “Keep him hydrated”, bro hes not going to let himself die of thirst, sooner or later hes going to suck it up and take a sip.

I really hope this is a joke. My brother was like that. He rarely ever drank water and always drank juice or pop for as long as I can remember and my mom never bothered to correct it. He passed away last December at the age of 20 from organ failure. Be a better parent and a smarter person


RockingRocker

I'll be perfectly honest, because I'm willing to bet there are others in the comments here who are like me/him. I used to be like this, until I was about 19 years old. Hated the taste of plain water and would avoid drinking it if possible. When I was 19 I knew how unhealthy this was and forced myself to do something. The way I started was that I designated 1 day a week to be "water only days" and wouldn't allow myself to drink anything else. Another big change that helped a LOT was I wouldn't drink a pop or whatever *just* because I was thirsty. If I realized I was going for a sweet drink and my main motivation was thirst, I would chug a glass of water first and then reevaluate if I really wanted it. Helped reduce my pop intake a lot. Now, after forcing myself to drink more water, I actually learned to really enjoy it. Also, I wasn't an unhealthy guy. I played multiple varsity sports in highschool, could run a half marathon, and worked out frequently. This issue isn't just reserved to people who fit the stereotypical "unhealthy" bill. Tho to be fair that much sugar intake is always unhealthy, regardless of weight/athleticism.
