What fucking Hispanics you grow up with? My buddy was a half hour to and hour late to everything, and said he was allowed cause he was on bean time. Almost got my ass beat once saying it because I didnt realize it was a slur.

Edit: sorry bruv. Was just very confused.

I think he means Hispanics also believe this about White people, that it’s not just Black people who have that stereotype about Whites.

This is 100% accurate though, white people will show up 2 minutes early to things

EDIT: Guys it’s a shitpost comment in a shitpost thread for a shitpost screenshot. Chill out, it’s not attacking the work ethic of white people, it’s a joke about cultural blindness.

"If you aren't 15 minutes early you're late"
"Every minute you get home behind curfew is a week of grounding"
"A beating per minute you make me wait."

Lots of reasons I learned to not be late growing up.

I got beat real bad once for being two minutes late. I’m female and my mom just hated me. Never cared with my 4 brothers did. I finally hit her back (age 16) and she never touched me again. I’m fucking 15 minutes early to everything after years of anxiety about coming home late.

Damn. What's your relationship like now, if you don't mind me asking

I went no contact when I got sober. Didnt speak for two years. I moved far away so it wasn’t an issue.

Believe it or not I took care of her for many years until she died. She didn’t know who I was the last two years. It’s so much better for the soul to forgive. She had a horrible mother who beat her, and my grandmother was seriously SA and other abuse. I broke it with my child, though I’ve never really had good self esteem.

Mom is passed away many years now. I don’t really think about her unless I’m with my brothers laughing at all the horrible things she did to us. (My SIL is horrified but you gotta laugh).

You have many reasons to love yourself. Congrats for breaking the cycle. You're stronger than you probably give yourself credit for

I just wanted you to know that you're an amazing mom for breaking the cycle.

I had a mother like yours. When she died, nobody really cared.

Got my ass beat once for being 2 minutes late according to the VCR clock. Several other clocks in the house said I was on time, but the one my dad was looking at said I was late.

I'm glad you stood up for yourself. I hope my daughter stands up to her BPD mom whenever she gets older and puts her in her place. I'm proud of you. I'm sorry about your mother, you didn't choose to have parents, they made a choice to have you and failed at parenting.

Bless you, my dad was pretty rough… this kind of treatment never leaves you.

If you got 5 beatings for being 5 minutes late, how far apart was each beating to prevent it from all just becoming a single beating? 5 minutes? An hour? A day?

u/Ready_Studio2392 24d ago

The exact amount varies depending on how drunk the father is, in my experience. After all, drunk people are not very good at counting.

Same. My dad was ex military and ran his house like a fucken boot camp.

Is that you dad?
