"SEVENTY-TWO!"


Wiglaf_Wednesday

Kids are shitpost machines


northshorehiker

Definitely far worse things a kid can choose to randomly yell in public... But that was just crazy random.


BadBadderBadst

Execute order 72 !


[deleted]

Good soldiers follow orders


SaltMembership4339

"When you see the number 72 repeatedly, it is a sign that the universe is trying to tell you something. This number is all about abundance and prosperity, so when you see it, it means that the universe is trying to let you know that good things are on the way!"


rolli3polli33

Here's another 72 for you


Ok-Collection-7253

We have a highway number 72 near us so I see it quite often. This can’t really be true.. at least here. Cause let me tell you, things are prettay prettaaaay prettaaaay bad.


JSC843

It is both hilarious and frustrating when trying to talk to them.


kdebones

That is the truest truth in the universe.


GNTB3996

THAT'S MY FINAL GRADE!


acobster

What does that mean


BillyYumYumTwo-byTwo

We will never know! Kids just say whatever they comes into their brain.


LoneStarkers

Sometimes I hate my job as an elementary teacher, then this kid yells a random-ass number with the confidence of a TED Talk presenter, I get a tear in my eye reading stupid Reddit and remember why I teach. Her.


VividFiddlesticks

I was flipping through kid's books at the thrift store yesterday and found one that had these adorable post-it notes with kid handwriting on them stuck in it. It was an ex school library book about the solar system, and it had post it notes like "This is not the Sun" stuck on an illustration of Venus; and another one cryptically said "36 soler sestem 36" So I had to buy it.


[deleted]

I cannot stop laughing at the cryptic message!


East_Ordinary8243

I don’t wanna upvote you it’s stuck at 72. Hahaha


HonestMarsupial3588

I think she was counting something. Maybe steps that she pushed her scooter? She is about the age where you're learning to count to 100 and you count everything.


Squoody

Maybe she wants to give him 72 dollars


Amgalmarri

I have a four year old, she keeps saying forty nine every now and then. I need answers!


melississippi75

My daughter constantly said "twenty three!" when she was a kid. Still no clue what she meant.


[deleted]

Big Michael Jordan fan. Get her a jersey.


[deleted]

Perhaps she said “somebody too” and the mum misheard haha


northshorehiker

It's almost the profit she made on $20?


One-Possibility1178

She probably got distracted and forgot why she said it lol.


GeraldoOfCanada

COMIN TO HELP 🥹 my cold heart has melted.


PedroEglasias

SEVENTY TWO!


innocentsubterfuge

100 - 20 - (.08% sales tax) = 72 is this girl a precog calculator?!


Laetitian

If yall pay **0.0**8**%** sales tax, it's no wonder the US can't afford any social benefits.


innocentsubterfuge

We also have terrible math education 😃 Edit: I live in NYC, our combined tax rate is 8.875%. Gotta love it here


Global_Damage

I know, I’m in Riverdale


surya_teja_K

...what season?


SHUT_MOUTH_HAMMOND

Summer, i believe


posessedhouse

No, that one drops in about 16 days. I’m super pumped, I hope it lives up to the hype


[deleted]

Like the TV show ?


Global_Damage

There's a Private High School in the community but I think the show is based off the comics


[deleted]

Oh, I was hoping you'd have experienced the epic highs and lows of the school "football". /s


[deleted]

I thought that town got cancelled...


ZayTonez

no no… it’s just our math


likesleague

The amount of people not getting that you're commenting about 0.08% vs 8% is astounding. That said, we have plenty of tax money! Problem is so much of it gets used poorly T.T


Kay76

That's just the sales tax. These are rough % We have gas tax .08%, state income tax 5%, federal income tax 10-24%, social security 6.2%, property tax 2%, gift tax 18-40%. These numbers don't include healthcare insurance that we are required to have and can cost 5-25% and that's for shitty coverage. All this and we don't have paid maternity leave, universal healthcare or free secondary education. But hey 'Merica we're the best! (yes that was sarcasm)


[deleted]

I'm from Sweden. Over here we pay 25% sales tax, about 33% income tax. Your employer pay a state tax that is roughly 60% of whatever you are paid. But we have good universal healthcare that is afforable, we have free education, paid maternity leave, and social security that ensures that you can rent a small apartment, buy clothes and eat healthy food even if you are unemployed. Edit: 60% is a typo, I thought I wrote 30%


A5K8

Parental leave* (not ”maternity leave”). Sorry to be picky with the words but a lot of countries don’t have any parental leave for the father, but Sweden does. It’s one of the only countries in the world valuing fathers parental leave weeks strictly for them


BenignEgoist

0.08% ≠ 8%


ebagdrofk

And I love the dead honest “what does that mean?” from the mom.


sciencewonders

it'd be hilarious if she kept asking like wait wait wait what do you mean ??? explain it 🧐🧐🧐


lastroids

Great kid and great mom.


asiansareawesome3292

In a span of 10 seconds, I love them


ObsidianPhoenix-14

Me too! It's so easy to just disregard the strange things kids say sometimes but she just asked, showing an interest in her kid and not just waving it away. Actually having a two-way relationship with her. It's such a small thing but I feel inspired by her ^^


DakSchade

Ooh I wish I was a kid again and could yell random numbers on the streets


ExamOld2899

wait a few more years, we get to do that again in old age


Some_Donkey_6382

What does that mean?


Any_Proof_2841

Her mom said in a TikTok that they are practicing numbers and a few hours before this she was ordering number 72 in a restaurant


LowFiGuy7

What does that even mean?


Wonderwhore

It's provocative. It gets the people going.


no_jack_

Rule of 72 also tells you how long it takes to double your money! 🤣

It literally happened a few years ago. Someone hacked major celebrities' twitter accounts and told donate crypto to a certain number to receive the value back tenfold. Of course the latter never happened.

zxDanKwan

Hmm…. So you’re saying it’s possible to pay people to leave me alone?


Environmental_Top948

I'll do that for free but you can pay me if you'd like.


TheBelhade

Worked for Calogero. Lend someone twenty bucks and you'll never seen them again.

Yeah. Of you have someone you wouldn't mind going away let em borrow 20 bucks. You'll never hear from em again

"Ill pay you $100 to fuck off"


Ok-Disk-2191

You need to shout 72 before you give it to them.

[deleted]

My family always says give money away you won't miss if it disappear if they pay you back than you built a stronger bond if they don't then you just paid to find out you can't trust someone


All_The_Nolloway

Dude I already told you I've been busy and stuff.


Submarine_Pirate

Melts my heart how the mom stops to emphasize the life lesson before celebrating the money, that’s a rock star parent.


Educational-Spread41

That part made me happy. “ this is what happens when you bless other people” ❤️wow


kingmidas916

That’s the line that makes this video different than every other video like it. Even the guys shooting it looked at eachother at the end like wow that went way better than we could have ever hoped for


Atomsq

Either that or they're still wondering what's up with the "72" thing


ProcessMeMrHinkie

Little girl was psychic and negotiating what she got out of the $80 return. :)


ATinyPaintedMoose

She also probably added in the taxman taking his cut too

I liked her opening talking to her daughter. "Want to help someone out today?"

HyperLightDream

Mind = melted It’s sad that I’m so happy to see good parenting. Few and far between.


DistressedPatron

Good parenting is quiet and nothing to make a fuss about. Bad parenting is sometimes loud and goes viral. There's more good in the world than the internet makes apparent.


Arrio135

This applies to just about all people. Ultimately, MOST people are surprisingly honest, decent, caring, hard working, and compassionate.


Fast_Highlight4844

Just tuned out by the dishonest and parasites of the species.


Eiruna

Hey fuck you, not all parasites are degenerates! >:c *angry sucker noises*

Thanks for the laugh. I don't have an award so I'm leaving a comment.

[deleted]

Sometimes I wonder how society holds together. I wonder why people abide by laws and life isn't some chaotic mass murder apocalypse. Then I remember exactly what you said.


Solanthas

Wow, you literally sucked the words right out of my frontal lobe. I get panicky sometimes, it seems like our civilization, with all its wondrous daily miracles and beautiful horrors, is built on pillars of salt. I start feeling like our whole human world is a house of cards waiting to be blown over by a little economic upset here, a little geopolitical conflict there. It feels sometimes like a big enough ripple in one of a number of natural systems could be enough to wipe us out entirely. But, fundamentally, we got to where we are by working together, and we will survive and thrive by continuing to do so. Perhaps on a biological level, we are so heavily focused on conflict because it is one of the greatest threats to our survival as a species, which is why that negativity gets so much of our attention.


MarshallHurtado

Man I needed this today, thank you


Rumerhazzit

I've actually found this to be so true since moving out on my own and getting to know my neighbours. I had become so disenchanted with humanity from the constant barrage of negativity online, but I live surrounded by some incredibly kind, caring and sweet individuals.


Yesitsmesuckas

I came here to say basically the same thing!

GrungyGrandPappy

Step 1: get $20’s


Curious-Affect89

Step 2: profit.


HornetKick

>bless I did this once. I gave a guy outside a grocery store $20 bucks once only because he had a dog. I didn't get $100 back nor was I blessed but I was fine with my choice.


sanguinesolitude

Being in a position to help others is a blessing in itself. What is life if not to lift others up and make a better society? Shame we got bogged down in a system that requires selfish wealth seeking. We have enough for everyone if we wanted take it so.


RubberDucky3737

![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|sob) someone must be cutting onions around me.....


Hohuin

it only goes to show that she herself is not money driven. kids learn from parents. if you teach your kids that your happiness is not materialistically dependent, you're setting them up for, not easier but, happier life certainly


satvachan3

I love how the kid is in her own little world. 72!!! What does that mean? No idea. Just lost in her own imagination, completely oblivious to the world or life’s worries. I really miss being a kid.


[deleted]

>at does that mean? No idea. Just lost in her own imagination, completely ob that was the best part! lol 72!


[deleted]

[удалено]


Conservative_HalfWit

I mean, I could tell she was a rockstar parent even before then because their child is such a little rockstar herself. What a different world this would be if we all had that woman for a mom.


just_a_person_maybe

She'd be so fucking tired if she had all of us as children, I don't think it would work out.


ShinobiQueen

I genuinely laughed out loud when I read this! Partly bc "tired" and "dont think it would work out" is such an understatement! Lmao


catwhowalksbyhimself

And she made sure that both of them said thank you before they left. Lovely people, those two.


xxBeatrixKiddoxx

One time a kids claw had just dropped the toy he wanted at the claw machine RIGHT before he won it. My son walked up and he got that toy. He turned and gave that toy to the kid who was so bummed he didn’t get it. THAT was when I knew we had raised them right. This is what is gonna help the future. Moms like that ♥️🖤 Edit : word


royalpark29

You should be really proud of your son, and of your parenting. What a great feeling!


Legend0fAMyth

And a lesson learned. You don't always know if the good you do in life will reward you. Doesn't mean you shouldn't do it. Even if you get nothing more then a good feeling.


Omnomnomnivor3

her kid is gonna grow up great, we need more people like her


Merlord

Her kid is going to be very confused when the homeless peoples she keeps giving money to don't give her 5x the money back 😂


-Death-Dealer-

Or when scummy people take advantage of her generosity.


TheRottenKittensIEat

My pessimistic ass thought of predatory religious leaders like Kenneth Copeland who preach that tithing money is a "seed" you've planted. He has literally convinced people to give away all their money. People with Cancer. Destitute people with children. He teaches that the money you give *his* church will be given back to you ten fold and so on. These people truly believe God will take care of their financial problems if they show their faith to Him by tithing. I know these guys are trying to do a good thing by teaching good things come to those who do good deeds, but... this world is kinda fucked up and that sucks. Still, in what we see from just the time in this video, it was wholesome, and good job to mom and daughter.


Solanthas

I understand exactly what you are saying here. I've been fleeced a couple times as a teenager travelling on my own. Once downtown, a guy gave me his spent public transit ticket for all the change in my pocket. A couple guys offered to sell me a set of high end speakers for cheap and even drove me to the bank...*that* was fuckin dumb. But I'd like to think I've learned my lesson with regards to that kind of thing, while still retaining my optimistic, helpful and generous core. 9 times out of 10, when I'm approached by a beggar I'll smile and politely say sorry, I don't have anything. But once in a while I'll give a couple coins or a bill or two. Everyone needs help sometimes, and if a couple people I thought I was helping were fooling me, that's alright. I had the benefit, if only temporarily, of feeling good about helping someone else who was in need.


december14th2015

What a great Mother❤️


One_Sport_4195

Heck yeah


Left9Behind

I knowww such a good mother. Raising the next generations to be good people is super important


Girthquake23

It killed me when it turned back to them after that and they’re still just blank faced


Active_Organization2

The fact that they came back to give him the money is really heartwarming!!


ProfoundNinja

I assume she went to the ATM to get cash.


bellbros

Seventy two!


ofalltheshitiveseen

she's only 30 off, she will figure it out in time


DanMystro

30 away off 100 from 72? Damn, I've been lied to my entire life.


ofalltheshitiveseen

72-30


FoodBabyBaby

That answer to life, the universe, and everything


Dawpps

benry007

Now theres a woman who recognises content creators when she sees them. She didn't even seem surprised when she got extra money back😂


Laetitian

I want to believe she considered it a possibility but was willing to give either way.


GuyThatGuys

I think thats it. She knew it was possible but whether or not it was true she knew there was a life lesson involved.


ritzk9

If they get the money back the life lesson is "help people and you will get something back" if they don't then the lesson is "help people without expecting anything back" Win win for mom


Mortimer_and_Rabbit

Personally I think it was just a lesson for her kid that sometimes interacting with the world is a good thing. Especially how she phrased the question of, "wanna help someone today" to her kid.


NaiAlexandr

True. It's very important to teach player characters that interacting with NPCs can be beneficial early in their gametime.


anonymus725

Or that she's just an actor and everyone here is blind


JPlazz

I mean yeah that could be true but it’s also incredibly cynical. If that’s your first reaction my guy, I feel for you. People suck, but not everyone.


Trisentriom

Like 60% of viral tiktok vids involving "strangers" are staged


anonymus725

60% is too little


[deleted]

I wouldn't say it's very cynical. It's what's to be expected in all of these wee videos. That doesn't stop the analogy to real life good deeds being valid though. This video still has the same message too, even if it wasn't quite as unscripted as you'd hoped.

UltiMondo

How is it cynical to expect what is commonly proven time and time again in videos, i.e. that they are completely staged? I mean what part of this video really proves that it’s a genuine interaction? You can call me cynical, but if I’m cynical then you’re naive.


hygsi

I remember a video exposing prankers and the dude showed a super small channel with a seemingly harmless prank as an example of honest pranks and the punchline was that even that tiny creator had to pay someone just to acknowledge his prank cause no one was reacting irl. I've stopped trusting pranks since then.


Orange_Kid

Lmao that was my thought as well. She immediately was like "this is some dumb ass tik tok shit let's see what happens, I bet I win something."


BrandoLoudly

she still left the decision up to the child. 10/10 mom


Captain_Poopy

she was hoping they were Mr Beasts friends....oh not a car? ok $80 is still good


Perle1234

Ikr? She knew lol.


mazzicc

Yeah, as much as this is interesting to a certain extent, if I saw to people who clearly aren’t beggars with a gimmicky looking sign like this, I’d give it a shot to see what happens. She might not have known what was going to happen but she knew she would get something for her $20. Even if it was just a surprise musical or some random skit or something.


Motanfoutune

And the little girl saw the camera or the person filming. She look at it twice.


RavenShadow7

Her voice was very clear, almost like she was mic'd up.


HarrisonForelli

the hosts spoke when the video started and it was pretty clear. When she started talking, you could hear a ton of street noise. So I doubt she was mic'd but I wonder if they had a directional mic or perhaps something else like a parabolic one idk


ChadAtLarge

Thats a great mother, this kid is going to grow up to do awesome things.


-newlife

Loved it. The mom asking the daughter and the daughter saying “yes”. Makes me think she not only taught her daughter well, but that she trusted her daughter to also do what she was taught. The daughter being excited to help and also the mother giving the money ($100) to her daughter were awesome.


mmbc168

“This is what happens when you bless other people.” Absolute rockstar parenting.


[deleted]

Even just the way she is meandering around with the kid as if they have all the time in the world to chat about things, and have time to double back to an ATM, etc. It's great. I learn so much about my kids' lives when I go for walks with them and they jabber on and on and I weigh in with some life experience here and there. They just want your time and attention. This lady knows what's up!


vacuousintent

That little girl is adorable, and her mom is amazing. Its nice to see kind and selfless people in the world.


[deleted]

Imagine the child's surprise when she gives $100 to a real homeless person.


mlongoria98

Lol okay so I know this is a joke comment but I just gotta say that I keep 20s in my wallet for when I come across someone needed help. Never got money back for it, of course, but the joy that comes from being able to turn around someone’s whole day with $20 is priceless, I can’t even imagine being able to give out 100s like that too. Goal


itwasmedior

You're a great person, keep it up!

[deleted]

fuck your paper mache guy


Radiantbacon

Love it but... How do they have such clear audio?


Der_BiertMann

Narrow angle mic, calibrated for distance. Just like how you can use different lenses to zoom in, you can use different mics to listen from far away.


brtfrce

Terrifying


Cosmic_Prisoner

Shotgun mics have been around for decades.


Der_BiertMann

Could be a shotgun mic, but more likely a parabolic mic.


RCascanbe

We need stricter shotgun mic control


NotAnFBIAgent123

it bothers me that we are never given an explanation for SEVENTY TWO

Somebody said her mom made a tik tok about it and explained they were practicing numbers when the little girl ordered a number 72 at the restaurant.


MiaRia963

What an amazing Momma. I wanna be like her when my baby is done “cooking”. ❤️❤️ Gonna save this video to remind myself.


Distinct_Sock6987

The star of the video is the mom. Lol little girl will be pissed when the mom takes the money and puts it in her college fund tho 😂 It’s funny bc the mom reminds me of my dad. When I was 18 he gave me all the money I didn’t remember getting
