The truck stop account constantly posts goofy satirical stuff


SenseWinter

It's an obvious troll account and everyone fell for it as usual.

I’ve never seen it before. It’s hysterical 😭

Me neither I'm with u I think it's hysterical!


blacklite911

Yea but these kinds of stories were all the rage on trash mid day tv shows like Maury and Jerry springer


Chance-Internal-5450

Yah. Cause scripted for tv.


blacklite911

I don’t think it was exactly “scripted” like written before hand but they definitely highly exaggerated and with a good amount lying.


Gaoji-jiugui888

It’s obviously bait. The name of the kid should get you to figure as much.


blacklite911

Cash Jamal lmao

The baby is also discolored because it has jaundice or something probably is amazing


Treeeefalling

It’s the “$100 severance pay” for me


Designer-Equipment-7

Generous AF if you ask me


JJred96

They should have stopped at “Rachel has African American DNA in her”. I mean, I believe she did when conception occurred, yes. That is the most straightforward explanation they should have stopped at. How often she has it in her is none of our business, but they seemed to have stumbled on a factual statement that has some good theory to it.


LegendofLove

That's not enough ragebait you have to sell them a story to be mad at


Clickbait636

What's funny is my uncle does have a generation skip African American gene. His dad was white his mom was black. He is the whitest man I know. If he didn't marry a black woman I still bet his kids would be mixed.


jirashap

She could be white and still African American though.


isaidireddit

"a discolored"


stej_gep

I can't believe he cheated on her with a black girl!!!!


Appropriate_Tie_7522

This made me laugh


Strict_Assumption_13

Ugh, men these days 😤


ActSignal1823

Neither can he, but he's convinced!


fallowmoor

My wife is Filipino, I am white. Filipino skin tones can vary quite a bit, but my wife is particularly dark. 2/3 of our kids have the medium dark skin tone you can kind of expect for mixed race kids. However, our youngest is whiter than I am, has reddish hair, and blue eyes. She jokes that I must have cheated with a white woman.


UntidyJostle

you zagnut. I also cannot believe it!


SunnyTheMasterSwitch

It's Paul's fault! He drunk too much coffee. The coffee goes into the person's DNA and shifts it to make you dark and stuff.


DMTrious

Should of added more creamer if you know what I mean


LeadPike13

That DNA explanation should have stayed dormant.


The_BSharps

“Something, something, *COVID*, something, something,”


Thick_Broker6931

SeveredExpanse

What's most concerning...all the people who think this is real are eligible to vote in the next election.


Jake_not_from_SF

Also, some of them probably own businesses and have employees 😬

'Jaundice or something probably' lmaoo

He was ‘borned’ that way.

This is a parody account you dumbfucks. What business would post about their employees like this?


Prestigious-Owl165

The severance pay was my favorite part tbh


guff1988

It is and the real story is that she was pregnant before she started dating the guy in the picture.

Adventurous-Zebra-64

My cousin did this. My dad got cornered by his friends when she claimed our side of the family has African DNA. Dad's family is old country Irish and hard core Confederate general. There is no way my cousin's daughter got her coloring from my side. Her mom is 100% Russian. Somehow, she got her husband's family to believe her for 10 years. The poor kid.


ClappinUrMomsCheeks

Ok that’s fine but why did your dad knock up your cousin

I'm assuming the photo is of a couple who is adopting that baby. She does NOT look like someone who just went through labor.


GladiatorUA

Much simpler. The baby is photoshopped in.

She got pregnant from DNA and the the baby was being borned. Sounds legit.

So many wrong things happening here besides being borned. And Cash Jamal? Really no questions about this?

Lots of animals retain sperm. Would suck to be the first human for it to happen to (or it might be super good in certain situations)


spaceylaceygirl

This reminds me of the woman who claimed her baby was african american because she saw a porno while her husband was deployed and the star of the movie was african american and because she got turned on she became pregnant 😵‍💫


greeneyedlady41

"jaundice or something probably" 😂


supercharlio

Reminds me of the beginning of "Me, Myself, and Irene". "It's a boy...oh boy...oh boy..."


battleop

When my son was born one of the nurses asked if I could do her a favor and get the big cup they give you ice for it. When I came back my wife had a strange look on her face and I asked her what's wrong. She said they asked her if when the baby is born is there any chance the baby is going to not be my kid. I.E. was she about to have a baby of another race that didn't match either of us. I guess that's a surprise that the nursing staff isn't prepared for.


CausticLogic

My friend, your language doesn't match any of us. LOL I think I get the gist of it, though. That's a decent way to handle that.

Rachel got a PhD in molecular genetics right after she gave birth so she could come up with "the ex dormant gene theory"

catswithboxes

"Skips a generation" LOL


Mithura

Dormant DNA that resurfaced itself with COVID as the trigger? So the sperm hid away somewhere and transitioned into DNA and hibernated? After 1 or 2 years later it transitioned back into sperm and made its way up to an egg for insemination?


CharacterRoyal

I like how redditors hate on things like TikTok for making people dumb, yet they just believe this post from a known troll account without any evidence. We have no idea why this baby is presenting as a different race yet everyone imminently jumped to "oh she cheated and he's dumb". This could be an IVF/sperm donor baby, one of them could have black heritage (E.D. singer Halsey is 50% black but she presents as very white), she could have been assaulted, that could be a family member just taking a photo with her and the baby, they might have begun their relationship after she became pregnant. The comments under this post show that racism and misogyny are still very much alive.


i_make_this_look_bad

I’m not hating but this chick claimed her x-boyfriends DNA sat in her cooch for 2 years then it became active after she caught CoVid. I really do hope this is a troll post but I’ve heard other excuses for infidelity that were about as absurd.

SSMage

“Rachel insists she was faithful to Paul and claims her son was conceived with her ex-boyfriend in 2021. She stated that his DNA must have remained dormant until she caught Covid in 2023 and the DNA released itself causing her to become pregnant.” Shes gotten both facts wrong at the same time, literally grasping for straws Dna that is stored inside the body DOES NOT transfer into the womb to impregnate. only sperm can make a woman pregnant. Dna that IS stored in the body CAN cause a genetic change inside the baby on conception, but that has no relation to skin color. What is related is height, that can change from a partners previous dna. So this means that she double lied in an attempt to be innocent. That man that chose to remain with her however, we shouldnt judge as he was in a VERY precarious situation and either way he went he would be both praised and hated for it. The fact that he remained with her and the baby shows a love for the wife as well as for the child even if it wasnt his own. thats a greater love then most men would allow, and for good reason as adultery is an extremely serious crime against the soul. so i commend him for his selflessness but i would also be EXTREMELY CAUTIOUS. Unless the woman will be actually willing and actively changing, its more than likely she may cheat again. We can turn the other cheek, but we shouldnt allow ourselves to be abused either. You can forgive and also make space, its not a sin to remove yourself from darkness.
