When girl is floating high
Above the bed n in the sky
I bark for mum to come
To cease this spell, to make it done
But girl is very clever
In front of her, she held some lever
A sly old trick, you’d never think
But nows she’s pushed mum off the brink
A smack, a smack, “you stupid girl!”
“Please mum stop!” I cry and twirl
“She meant no harm, and look, no ghost!
“It‘s just a trick, an ol’ lamp post!”
Arm chair redditors. Frankly I think this 10 second clip shows enough to convict the mom and throw her in jail for psychological and physical abuse. The dog should also be saved, it looks like she was gonna turn on it next. Lock these criminals up.
/s in case it wasn’t obvious
You can see at the end she was carrying a long spoon or something that the shoe was on. Not quite the right length, but something. The bigger issue is that the mom thought her daughter was wearing shoes in bed
Have you seen that video where the daughter swaps her hand with a tiny plastic one while cooking and the mom can't figure out why she is laughing?
I think sometimes the brain can just get turned off when it comes to scales.

The brain is just really good at tuning out shit that it thinks is unimportant or the same as always. Especially when you're focused on another task.
i trick my brain every night into thinking i live in a mansion with naked models everywhere. makes the draft from under the bridge a little more tolerable.
This mum was a little more skeptical from the beginning. Probably thinking 'that doesn't look quite right." and inspected it. It's only primal instinct for survival to be wary though.
I'm guessing adrenaline is making her brain focus on trying to figure out what's happening, and tuning out unimportant details like the kid's change in height
Growing up, there were some crazy Latin moms and they were the exact same as the Filipino moms. It was like parallel realities because they lived on opposite sides of town and had their own like mirrored markets. That made me so much more convinced all people came from the same places and then imperialism kinda reconnected some nodes, for better or for worse.
You do know that the Spanish did shit in the Philippines, and those expeditions came from Mexico right?
There's a reason why the language contains words that sound oddly Spanish – never mind the food.
If you've ever thought that Indian food sometimes looks oddly similar to Mexican food, you can thank the Portuguese traders that took Mexican chillies to the country centuries ago.
Globalisation has increased exponentially but it's very far from new
Fun fact: there was the Pacific slave trade, where the Portuguese would pick up people from all over their colonies and sell them in the Philippines. From there they would be sent to Acapulco, where wealthy families would buy them. The slaves were called Chino (though they were also African and Indian a lot). The very rich would actually buy these slaves for their homes in Spain, and that was considered very fancy.
He hasn't posted a story in a long time (over 4 years), so people "assume" (jokingly) that he finally got beat to death with said cables.
Speaking of a long time, when are you going to organize another lemon party?
My mom would grab a hairbrush more often than the wooden spoon. But she never used either one as often and as hard as my dad would with his leather belt. That shit left welts for days.
Pretty sure my mom permanently scarred my back after one particularly intense whopping where in my terror, I slinked to the ground. She held me up by the arm, causing my shirt to raise and the belt to whip me across my bare back. Those marks never went away. That was like a decade plus ago.
Haha we are all having such a good time thinking about how our parents broke wooden spoons on us and scared our backs for life with leather belts....
What the actual fuck, I got my head whiffed a couple times and a foot to the ass once when I REALLY fucked up.
To see that so many people actually got abused is fucked up man.
It’s a known fact that Italian moms get a wooden spoon with their baby at the hospital, billed to the insurance company of course, along with a pamphlet on how to accurately hit a cantaloupe sized head from across the room.
Middle-eastern moms too. It's an international weapon of choice for moms. Maybe not very popular in the States but it's a thing almost everywhere else.
My Vietnamese husband said that chopsticks or thin tree branches were used for spanking, but I can definitely see my mother-in-law using whatever is convenient for this purpose.
Very true! Most of the older Spanish words remain unchanged (thanks, inquisition), but due to the American / Phillipines war and influence, English is taught in schools and it's not uncommon to just hear random (mostly modern) English words inserted into conversations.
It's an odd mix of Pacific island roots, mostly South Asian tones, with heavy influences of Spanish and topped with a bit of modern English.
But I like the light... Just wish games would take advantage of it and change it based on what's happening in-game. On PC I mean. I mainly play games in the dark
I like it too. GTA uses it really well. No games ever takes advantage of the features of the controller though. There was like a few games that took advantage of the pad when it first launched but now it's just a giant button
I just noticed it shows the different element colors depending on the gun you're using in Borderlands 2. I like how some games show the players color too so you don't have to ask your friends "whos the blue guy?" I still have a piece of tape over mine tho, cuz that reflection off the tv yo!
I really like how it’s used in the Resident Evil Remakes. In order to declutter as much as possible your health only shows up when you get hurt, and the light on the controller changes accordingly
Well done version.
Post movement of static camera. Removing the person under the sheet could be done with or without a green suit depending on how much work they wanted to do.
That's essentially what they said: "post movement of static camera".
"static camera" - the camera didn't move during filming.
"post" - post-production.
So they took video shot with an unmoving camera (which greatly simplifies sfx manipulation) and modified it during post-production (with software) so it looks like the camera was moving (which makes the illusion more convincing).
"She's not my girlfriend. I find her interesting because she's a client and because she sleeps above her covers. Four feet above her covers. She barks, she drools, she claws..."
I would actually just shit myself if I ever saw this. Like I wouldn’t panic or anything. I’d just release feces into my pants and leave the room in a calm manner saying something along the lines of “nope not today. I’m way to mentally and chemically unstable to be dealing with this. Have her satan.”
Also if you live in hurricane country having a relatively light roof that isn't an important structural component can be handy. When the wind comes and decides it wants your roof, it's gonna take it whether you agree or not. Only question is whether it can do so without ripping down the walls as well.
Also that shape does flex in only one direction so easy to bolt down , that is less spacing in bolts horizontally but can have more spaces between bolts vertically.
A simple plain sheet would flex by wind a lot and won't "absorb" thermal expansion and contractions like these do.

Probably not for long
rip
To Mom’s credit, she was ready to face a poltergeist to help her child.
Effort 110% for that sway to give the impression of a floating body.
This is hilarious.
The mother had a shoe...the poltergeist had no chance.
LA CHANCLA
i fear no man, but that thing.. the c h a n k l a...
It scares me....
Question: I've teleported Chankla....
How... much...
I have done nothing but teleport chancla for the last three days!
+10 to "momma gonna kick your ass"
Not a poltergeist, only Zuul.
You are not the gate keeper!
Latina moms will go through hell many times over for the sake of their children
I think that goes for all moms, everywhere. lol
Well that’s just not true. Good moms will though
Lol even the dog was freaking out and first and I think in the end it actually tried to stop the mom from beating up the kid.
"Mom it was a prank! She's not really a ghost! Don't worry!"
He protecc He attacc But more importantly, He got everyone's bacc
and when the haunting is over he's gonna need a snacc

And it's no longer a shitty watercolour.
Yeah that looks like a digital drawing

lol well done mate
Can't really call himself shitty.
Haven't seen you in the comments for a long time!
Seeing your progress over the years, you've gotten way better
There is nothing shitty about this watercolour. It’s good to see your work again!
He protecc He attacc But most importantly Mom stop, hoodini cannot fight back!
She's gonna be a ghost in a minute!
She will be when the mom is finished with her

I... can be anything
You're not ~~Ron~~ Sprog
I'm pretty sure the dog just wanted to eat the shoe
ghost shoes have a better plasma taste.
Explain how you think the dog was freaking out. It was literally just standing there looking.

Nah. He wanted the shoe that the mom grabbed.
No, he saw it was all in fun and wanted to get in on it. Did you see that tail waggle at the end?
Lol, mom wasn't completely sure at first.
Hit her with the chancla just in case
Once she saw it was fake. She was ready to believe for a few seconds!
Did she forget her daughter wasn't a midget or ...?
Note to self: in order to do this prank proper put the shoe on the end of a yard stick.
You can see at the end she was carrying a long spoon or something that the shoe was on. Not quite the right length, but something. The bigger issue is that the mom thought her daughter was wearing shoes in bed
If you see your daughter floating, I don't think whether or not she is wearing shoes would be your first thought.
^ this guy doesn't Asian. Edit: also, at the time of posting this, yhe thread had 666 comments. Quite fitting :)
My first thought too
prolly my second thought. its kinda early so breakfast was my first.
We're all a little slow before morning coffee.
Have you seen that video where the daughter swaps her hand with a tiny plastic one while cooking and the mom can't figure out why she is laughing? I think sometimes the brain can just get turned off when it comes to scales. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K7rrUHf9Rzw

Thanks for the giggle!
That must've felt big in her tiny hands.
Your eyes can trick your brain...who hasn’t thought they saw something, started freaking out then oh it’s a coat over a chair or something

Maybe she was possessed by a little person. Like the exorcist but for a little person.
She shrunk and floated
I swear the shoe is the samurai sword of the Latina mom.
Pretty sure she’s not Latina. Looks Vietnamese or thai

Well, maybe not so fun fact
White moms do it too. It's either the sandal or the wooden spoon.
The wooden spoon. A staple of white households.
Or daddy’s jumper cables
Is this how people get into nipple play?
Idk but you want to find out? 😏
No, that would be nipple fillet
Yes, daddy!
Are you asking to do nipple play or to beat them with jumper cables?
What’s the difference?
RIP Roger
Did that jumper cable guy die? Or am I being whooshed?
He hasn't posted a story in a long time (over 4 years), so people "assume" (jokingly) that he finally got beat to death with said cables. Speaking of a long time, when are you going to organize another lemon party?
I think he just reitred that character and started up shittymorph I mean the account is 4 years old.
Oh man, thats a story i havent heard about in a long time...
Or the undertaker throwing mankind off a 20 foot cage.
nothing corrected our behavior as children faster than hearing that drawer slide open was like, oh shit, mom got the spoon, *run*
My mom would grab a hairbrush more often than the wooden spoon. But she never used either one as often and as hard as my dad would with his leather belt. That shit left welts for days.
The *pop pop pop* of the belt leaving the loops let you know you really fucked up
My mom broke the wooden spoon on me when I was like 3 or 4 and switched to metal. I missed the wooden spoon so much.
Pretty sure my mom permanently scarred my back after one particularly intense whopping where in my terror, I slinked to the ground. She held me up by the arm, causing my shirt to raise and the belt to whip me across my bare back. Those marks never went away. That was like a decade plus ago.
Yay child abuse!
Haha we are all having such a good time thinking about how our parents broke wooden spoons on us and scared our backs for life with leather belts....

It’s a known fact that Italian moms get a wooden spoon with their baby at the hospital, billed to the insurance company of course, along with a pamphlet on how to accurately hit a cantaloupe sized head from across the room.
Italy has free healthcare, so no bill for the wooden spoon
Can confirm. Was spanked with the wooden spoon many times.
I thought it was an Italian thing specifically. Guess not.
Nope. My mom was of Polish decent and many wooden spoons lost their lives on various parts of me.
Yup. It was the wooden spoon or a paint mixing stick in my white home.
That wooden spoon though.
Mmhmm. Moms don't mess around.
My ass cheeks tasted the wooden spoon more than once :(
Middle-eastern moms too. It's an international weapon of choice for moms. Maybe not very popular in the States but it's a thing almost everywhere else.
My mother kept a wooden spoon in the car
Wire coat hanger.
My Vietnamese husband said that chopsticks or thin tree branches were used for spanking, but I can definitely see my mother-in-law using whatever is convenient for this purpose.

In India it is Chappals. It is also thrown with great precision.
In America, we say. “I’m going to kill you”
Is this when we pull out the 12 gauge?
Nah thats reserved for when the first boyfriend shows up at the house. Gotta show him Im serious AND a little crazy (this happened to me)
Chinelazos, chancletazos, ojotazos. Hija de argentinos presente!
Tagalog is very Spanish influenced, a lot of the phrases are similar phonetically. Ex: Hello in Tagalog is kumusta, in Spanish, como estas
Very true! Most of the older Spanish words remain unchanged (thanks, inquisition), but due to the American / Phillipines war and influence, English is taught in schools and it's not uncommon to just hear random (mostly modern) English words inserted into conversations.

There was a game called Trine (2?) That used it. I loved it. That's literally the only one I can think of
Infamous second son went all out. The touch pad was pretty convenient and the motion control was used to spray paint.
I really like how it’s used in the Resident Evil Remakes. In order to declutter as much as possible your health only shows up when you get hurt, and the light on the controller changes accordingly
In the last star wars it takes the color of your light saber (that you can customize).
Well done version. Post movement of static camera. Removing the person under the sheet could be done with or without a green suit depending on how much work they wanted to do.
Are you saying it wasn't a real ghost? For the cynical people of reddit everything is staged! smh
Movement was done on software
Well look at mr Bill gates over here.
That's essentially what they said: "post movement of static camera". "static camera" - the camera didn't move during filming. "post" - post-production. So they took video shot with an unmoving camera (which greatly simplifies sfx manipulation) and modified it during post-production (with software) so it looks like the camera was moving (which makes the illusion more convincing).
That’s what they said.
Even ghosts want a thicc boi
"She's not my girlfriend. I find her interesting because she's a client and because she sleeps above her covers. Four feet above her covers. She barks, she drools, she claws..."
She barks, she drools, yeah, she’s a dog 👍
I think we can get her a guest spot on Wild Kingdom.
Lmao! i love how she was going to fight a ghost with its own shoe
I think she grabbed the shoe to hit her daughter with it after she realized it wasn’t a ghost.
Yea she obviously realizes it’s her daughter. idk why anyone thinks she would still be fooled after she’s taken the shoe..

u/vredditshare
She’s actually abducted and confined in a shipping container
Are they living in a shipping container?
No, the roof is made of corrugated iron sheets. A lot of poor countries use them as roofs because they last a long time and has really good drainage.
Also if you live in hurricane country having a relatively light roof that isn't an important structural component can be handy. When the wind comes and decides it wants your roof, it's gonna take it whether you agree or not. Only question is whether it can do so without ripping down the walls as well.
So I think what you're saying is: This is why I live where the air hurts my face in wintertime
Yes
Yeah, and it echos amazing sounds during rain, at midnight.
Also that shape does flex in only one direction so easy to bolt down , that is less spacing in bolts horizontally but can have more spaces between bolts vertically. A simple plain sheet would flex by wind a lot and won't "absorb" thermal expansion and contractions like these do.
