r/Pettyrevenge My Dad Stole My Inheritance 

Story 6: A therapist telling people to remove themselves from existence? That's no good, she's supposed to say the exact opposite As for the whole ban system, holy hell that is terrible, like they're basically just giving bullies a slap on the wrist. Those bans are supposed to be permanent

The patio furniture story, escalated quickly is an understatement. Holy crap! That guy is an absolute menace. Having witnesses to serve him was definitely the right call

The Will post: I agree that the mother should have made a Will years ago however, many believe they don't need one because they don't "have anything to leave" and then put it off too long. This is not an excuse and she SHOULD have made a Will, of course, but there it is. To be fair, in the end, she might have been in a health situation where it would be illegal for her to sign any legal/financial document. My husband died with an Alzheimer's diagnosis, for example, so thankfully he made his Will long before his diagnosis. This can apply to physical constraints, as well: if the patient is on heavy doses of pain killers sometimes, for example. Anything that could impede the patient's clear thinking, or open them to be easily coerced makes their last minute Will open to debate, at the very least.

Rslash - Making a will on your deathbed is not as easy as it seems, especially when greedy people are involved. Its all too common, and far too easy, to have people declared incompetent to make such decisions. My wife had to fight that legal battle when her dad died, and made a will during his last few weeks. It was a very long legal fight, and in the end, didn't amount to much use. By the time it was over, anything of sentimental significance to her and her siblings had "vanished", and the monetary remains that could be counted as solely his weren't worth much, especially after legal fees.

Hey for story with the will. If she was dying. She probably was terminally ill. Stressed out and probably had foggy mind. We don't know the full context of the story only what OP told us.

For those asking rSlash to take a break, do note that taking a break or vacation while still uploading daily still entails frontloading and recording multiple videos over a few days. This just redistributes the stress and I'd assume isn't as relieving. He also can't simply stop making videos, as the RU-vid algorithm essentially punishes creators that don't upload consistently. I'd assume this is devastating for a channel that's been relatively stagnant in terms of views and subscriber count for a while. It seems like it would be much more beneficial for him to stop uploading every day. It might provide diminishing returns at first, but I think it will be much better overtime. EDIT: Including more positive, supportive, comical, or fulfilling subreddits in the palate of uploads would probably decrease the seeming burden of the workload, although I'm not sure how the views would compare to r/AITA and r/Bestof videos, for example. I'd hope most of rSlash fans would at least understand though.

Just read story 5 and ngl calling a dying woman stupid and lazy is kinda f**ked up to be completely honest. I’m sure writing wills are easy when you aren’t constantly in the hospital and near death/dying.

Geez @rslash, I usually agree with your opinions but calling a terminally ill woman ‘stupid’ without knowing the full story is really harsh.

"And then OP posted an update." What I was expecting: "My husband apologized." What I was not expecting: "So my husband attempted to murder me."

Dead mom's will: If she only had a little while to live, the husband could argue she wasn't of sound mind when she made it. This would mean that OP would have to spend a long time fighting legal battles just to _maybe_ get the money she was promised in the will, and she'd likely have spent a significant portion on her lawyer's fees.

The final one with the therapist -- OP should have reported this to the licensing board for therapists in their area. Professional misconduct goes beyond the office in many fields, and therapy is very much one of them.

Op in the last story should have reported that therapist to her local licensing board. She needs to at least have it marked on her record even if there isn't enough proof to totally revoke the license

Ayo slash, on story 5 you were a bit too aggressive to the dead mom imo. I get that setting up a will is easy but calling her dumb and lazy was a bit much

Are wills easy to set up? Sure. And just because there is a will doesn't mean that it won't be contested or you won't end up in a legal battle. My grandmother made multiple wills over the last 20 years. My uncle was named executor, which in the state they lived in carries certain fiduciary responsibilities by law. He has been refusing to respond to my mom, turned in older wills, despite being told where the most current will was. (My cousin later found it, right where my uncle was told it was, and gave it to the lawyer.) My mom is considering requesting an investigation of elder financial abuse. (There is evidence that he spent her money on things he shouldn't have.) There is an ongoing lawsuit against my uncle. Here is where it gets pertinent to the story: my grandma realized right at the end that her son had been taking advantage of her and at that point she was too ill to change the will, even if she wanted to. Even if you try to do everything right, sometimes it is just too late.

Last story: I would have *also* contacted the state licensing board so they'd at least be on notice.

Have you never heard of diminished capacity? The mom may have not been able to legally make or adjust her will. By the time she realized she was dying it would have been too late. Calling a dead woman stupid without knowing the full story is a bad look rslash

rSlash: Insults a deceased person without knowing the full story Also rSlash: “What could possibly go wrong?”

Last story: that so-called therapist should be in jail. At least in my country, encouraging or aiding someone in unaliving themselves is a crime: up to 2 years for doing so, 3 years if the person attempting it suffers any serious injuries and 6 years if they succeed.

WOW. I am absolutely FLOORED that you said what you did about a dead person who didn't have time to craft a will. Sure, she could she have made one sooner, but it's not at the forefront of everyone's mind. Honestly, it's disgusting to call someone lazy because a dying woman didn't meet your standards. And totally clipped it, just in case you delete that section to evade further backslash.

You're right, if I'm on my deathbed and about to die, the first person I'll think of calling is my lawyer, not my family. /S. That was a bit of a tone-deaf comment from R/Slash there. Do you really think that was on her mind at that moment?

i never usually comment on these but calling a DYING woman stupid and lazy of all things?? dude..

rSlash you've been making a couple bad calls lately and barely sympathise with the people in these stories. Story 5 he explicitely said it was too late for the mum to create a will, likely because she had alzheimer or similar. And she just had a good day when she talked to OP about the will. Take a break or something, we don't want you to suffer!

My landlord was diagnosed with Stage 4 Lung Cancer and passed away within 3 weeks after finding out. The day she was moved to hospice, she told us that she was waiting for the lawyer to show up to make the will. It took the lawyer 3 days to show up on a Saturday and she had passed that monday morning. She only held on for that long to make her affairs were in order. Now I may be dumb but why call someone stupid for not having a will? I mean, it took my landlord over a week to find one and it took that lawyer DAYS to show up. I feel Rslash is out of touch with normal people as of late. Besides wills aren't set in stone because my aunt got her ex husband's house when he died even though he left it to his sister and they were divorced for 25 years!!!!!!

Dude you legit called a dying/dead mom stupid??? WTF man! Bad bad call

While I do agree that not getting a will made/adjusted was a bad move, I wouldn't call a dying woman stupid and thoughtless... OP only gave as much detail as they thought was necessary, we don't know enough about the situation to pass judgement on the mother. Maybe she wasn't in the right state of mind because of her illness, so she couldn't legally list OP in her will after she became sick? She obviously didn't plan to leave him with nothing. Maybe try having some compassion?

Rslash you were way harsh on the terminal mother. Having lost both parents in similar situations, it can take an act of Congress level of energy in those around the terminal person to get it going.

On Story 5/the will story: Rslash, that comment was really insensitive. My grandfather died this past September and while he did have a will, it hadn't been updated since my grandmother's passing about two years prior. Likely because handling her estate and his own grief was very harsh on him. But when it was clear to us he was dying, it was very difficult for us to have the doctor agree he was of sound mind and transfer authority to be his executor and power of attorney to my aunt [something he said he wanted prior to this anyway]- and that was just an edit to a very cut and dry estate. If she didn't have a will, the fact that she may not have been considered of sound mind before he death greatly impacts it. My grandfather was a smart man, even at the end of his life. He just made a mistake. At that point in her life, it isn't laziness or anything. She may literally have not had the time or the legal capability to get it done. That isn't considering what else in her life may have meant she didn't have a will [such as not being able to afford an attorney until it was too late]. And health can go sideways fast. My grandfather was seemingly in perfect health before he suddenly passed. It was less than a week of him going downhill just before he was about to come live with us. We don't know the full situation with OP's mom, and calling her lazy and stupid is deeply disrespectful. Not to mention the absolute legal nightmare that can ensue with trying to actually go through with the will once the time comes- again, my grandfather's estate was VERY simply, cut-and-dry, and it only just recently got resolved. And that was quick, it was expected to take a full year.

Wow Dabney, calling a dying woman stupid and lazy when you have no idea what her mental state was or how quickly it was onset. That is surprsngly ignorant and insensitive of you.

Dabney...what the heck, dude. Seriously. Calm down, dial it back, and take a break. You are going at this in *completely* the wrong way. These takes are getting borderline vicious.

Story 4: All this over OP not wanting to break her back hauling heavy boxes through a car park. It's not lazy to avoid back pains. Husband's got real issues if that was his reaction to the divorce, hope he is locked away for a while

At 12:43, it may be that while the mother was aware enough to want to see her child again, she wasn't legally sound of mind. Meaning that any will she would've written at that time might be able to be challenged to be voided. I think this because of the phrase "Because of how she died, she didn't have a will."

RSlash takes a break for the holidays. I think we need to encourage him to take more breaks throughout the year.

Dabney calling the mother dumb and lazy was uncalled for. You don’t know the condition she was in mentally and physically. Sorry but you owe op and apology and maybe your readers. Very disappointed in you man do better

That therapist needs to lose their license and find another job, maybe at a call center.

I know everyone is saying r/slash needs to take a break, and I agree. But if you can't take a break from making videos, maybe you should switch forums. Like read wholesome stuff for awhile. You're being too harsh lately in a lot of your videos. Take a break before you start loosing views.

Even if people HAVE a will, it doesn't mean it's followed. My grandmother's will stated certain things were to go to my dad, and guess what? He died (with no will, because he was young with no known health complications) very suddenly, and the rest of his siblings took what was LEGALLY mine. My mom, who is an attorney, knew it wasn't worth the legal battle and asked for what she thought was necessary from my grandmother's house (i.e. plates for me to use when I moved out, or gifts we'd gotten her). Not everything is black and white, even when it comes to wills. And thanks for insulting anyone who died unexpectedly and didn't think they'd have to craft a will. And any potential attorney spouses who said they would help. Can't wait knowing THAT take'll get removed instead of an apology for being so callous.

Ain’t no way you just bullied and criticized a woman on her death bed. What is wrong with you?

I agree with the comments… I think calling a dying woman dumb and lazy isn’t ok R/slash.. please take a mental break, you need it. You seem like you were a few months ago, a break wouldn’t hurt. ❤

About that will post, my mom and I were in a similar situation, she was deadly sick and had no will. My "luck" was that I'm the only person left that was there to inherit anything. Anyways, in the end she wasn't able to make a will because the last three weeks of her life were only tollerable because she got the maximum dosage of Fentanyl you can give an adult. To put it bluntly, she was lucid enough to lament the mistakes of her life, but in no position to sign any kind of legally binding document. This might have been the same with OPs mom in this story, so... No, she's not stupid for not getting a will done on the spot (which itself can be fought quite easily due to the fact she's about to die), she's at most shortsighted to not make a will when she had the opportunity to.

Your take on the dead mom story is the most hot steaming pile of a take I’ve ever heard. That’s ridiculous dude

Omg! The last one hits home. I work in a call center and I had to make a call to a someone about a login issue that they were having for their acct. They berated me for calling them at the wrong time, made fun of me that I was working in a call center, made fun of my intelligence, kept bragging about her PhD's and how smart she was, acting completely narcissistic, chatting with her co-worker and bad mouthing me while on the call. And so forth. Got nothing done on that phone call mind you. Did I mention, this lady was a THERAPIST?! I worry for her clients/patients.

I used to live on the corner right in the middle of an elementary school and middle school. NO ONE ever parked in our driveway even though parking was slim pickings. We had plenty of kids sitting on our fence and even sitting in our driveway waiting for their parents but that was never an issue. It actually surprised me no one ever did.

Yesterday it was shit talking guys with anxiety, today it’s shit talking women on their death beds. Yikes.

I didn't get my will done until I was in my 50s. Like many others, I tend to procrastinate. I am childless and single, so this would be messier than usual. Getting your will done - and updating when things change - is a loving act. We all are mortal. When we die, those who love us should not be agonizing over how to distribute assets. Also make sure you state how you would like your funeral to be and what you would like to become of your remains. Give your loved ones the opportunity to just grieve.

Did you even read the will story? She literally said her mom didnt realize she was sick until it was too late

For the last story I would have secretly recorded her then quit and notify the licensing board with the evidence

I like how if rslash starts doing bad takes most of us are immediately like "bro leave us and take care of yourself we are worried" Also I hope he and his family and friends are all doing good. If you ever have too much going on or are getting overly stressed by work please take a break. We are all worth more than a job.

Dabney you need to pause and take a step back. Please take a break.

Dabney, ive been watching you since youve started, and i absolutely love how your channel has grown and evolved. That being said, you should probably take a whole week off of reading these dark stories because that out of pocket comment about Op's mom in story 5 being "dumb" is NOT okay. I would actually put you on blast if that was my mom you name called beyond the grave. Did you just mentally block out the fact that OPs mom literally didnt know she was dying so couldn't craft a legally written will? She also couldnt have known her husband, who was literally in OPs shoes, would double cross her in death like that. You dont need a day, you dont need a few days, you need at least a week off reddit and youtube. Refresh your brain with happy thoughts and sniff some empathy coffee grounds cause your ability to empathize is diminishing. Please think about what you say about innocent people please my guy. If you are reading the comments, please listen to us and take a break from reddit and YT. You cant use Lily as a virtual accountability shield anymore, either... cause she no longer has anything to do with these off handed remarks.

Yesterday Rslash was calling a man with a clear anxiety disorder and who seems extremely likely to be neurodivergent (my money is on autism, b/c I'm autistic and have the same exact issues with clearly interpreting unspoken social cues) and today he's calling a dead woman with Alzheimer's dumb and lazy. Rslash, my friend, I'm begging you to step back for a break. To take care of yourself and your well-being. You deserve rest, and as a parent myself nothing has been more important for my child than to have a stable, calm person to help them navigate the world. Your family deserves the version of you that is at his best. If you're burning out on your job so badly that you're being demeaning to people who literally haven't done anything but struggle immensely it's going to effect the ones you're close to sooner or later. Please go rest

Rslash take another vacation. Maybe a much longer one this time. Your takes are WAY off.

Man, i was wrong. He called a dead one stupid a d lazy. The woman who was suffering while dying, was stupid and lazy. Then he virtue singaled like always

Last story: Unfortunately it doesn’t surprise me at all that someone working in the mental health field is a sick, sadistic bully. It does seem to attract some really vile individuals who themselves probably suffer from a personality disorder, such as sociopathy or malignant narcissism, who get a real kick out of manipulating and preying on a victim pool of vulnerable people seeking help. I’ve met perhaps five therapists over the years who certainly enjoyed playing with people’s lives (3 psychiatrists and 2 psychologists), plus a medical student looking to go into psychiatry who was a horrible bully in high school. I hate to think how much damage such people can do in that role, and how many patients they’ve talked into killing themselves. OP should have sent the recordings to the therapist’s governing body. Patients definitely need to be protected from her.

Story One: Has been read before multiple times here. Story Two: New and good. Story Three: Repeat as resent as the last two weeks. Story Four: New. Story Five: New, but you are out of pocket. Story Six: New.

Only rslash would trash someone’s mother for the actions she didn’t take while on her deathbed lmao

For the therapist, OP should have reported her to the state board. Homegirl needs to be investigated and lose her professional license and practice.

Dabney... The mother was suffering for 5 months and had ONE day of lucidity. It's not great that you're being so harsh on a woman who was DYING.

I think you need to tone down a bit with some of your comments, I watched your vid every single day and while it did not disappoint me some of your afterthoughts had some really harsh words. I know reading a lot of these stories especially the really triggering ones would really affect some character aspect of a reader and listener, so I think having another category to focus on would really help, more on the positive side of life, maybe pets and even some funny life stories that would balance the negatives out, maybe schedule it on a 5th upload or something. If that is not possible, maybe take another hour or two to read some comments to these post just to evaluate what you're going to say. I know that most of your comments are your first thoughts of the stories but when it comes to the extreme- like unaliving/abuse or the likes- just take a moment to assess. I've been following your channel way back and even binged on your first ones so please take care.

i cant ever imagine insulting someone's dead mother just bc she wasnt 100% prepared to die. rslash, how actually disgusting of you

1- I’m glad OP was nice to the little boy! Poor kid is stuck with that Karen of a mom!

Ayyyyye, whoa, Rslash, buddy, calling a DYING woman lazy and stupid is out of line. I'm so disappointed in you. I think another break is in order, idk what buttons that hit for you but clearly they were severe.

Rslash- I think you need a break. I've been watching for years, and I'll be here when you get back. PLEASE take care of yourself ❤

You have to be of sound mind to make a will. If she was on certain meds when she realized she was near the end, the will could have been easily overturned. It isn't as simple as just calling when she realized. She should have gotten one much earlier, but most people don't.

I think we’re all needing some more wholesome content. While these stories do make for good thumbnails and titles, I think both R/slash and we the viewers need some more happy stuff.

That awkward moment when your therapist’s name is Kathy 😂

Story 5: people with terminal illnesses tend to be extremely tired, with a limited amount of things they can do each day. For the mom, setting up an appointment with a lawyer so you can give your daughter your money (especially if your own husband probably won't help with it, because he wants all of it) sounds utterly EXHAUSTING. I don't think doing all that sounds like a good use of what time she had left, especially if she just wants to spend it with her family. OP'S mom may also have made incorrect assumptions about inheritance laws in her state, and when she realized her daughter wouldn't get anything without a will, she couldn't do anything about it, which sounds like what happened. :(

Yall seem to be under the impression that rslash cares about his channel. Of course hes not goingnto take a break, because all he cares about is money now.

That second story has me FLOORED just from the intro of "instead of getting MULTIPLE wedding cars, Dad got one, and then HIRED A HELICOPTER". Holy Jesus on a pogo stick, how crazy rich is your family?????

I listened to a lot of r/ recently, and he really has gotten more heartless as time goes on. I listen to his older stuff and he always tried to come from a place of understanding. Now he just judges people because in his position “it’s all much easier” or “people are just too dumb”. It’s really sad to see honestly :(

Story 4: "Escalated quickly" is an understatement to say the least.

I've never heard the word meat shield used in that way before. I have however heard the teachers say that I should stand in front of the door during an active shooter situation so that I could be the meat shield if the active shooter came to that classroom. He didn't say it quite that badly but using the word meat shield towards a student is not okay and I definitely regret not saying something to someone higher up.

take your bets now on when Rslash will delete his take on story 5 away - mine is 3hrs

Hey RSlash, im not OP but I heavily sympathize with them a lot. My mother recently succumbed to cancer almost year ago and she could not have written a will at all in the state she was in because her brain was fogged, she was in pain and vomitting everyday. She couldn’t have written a will, it’s not easy when you’re about to die. Why do you think she used her last moments to call her kids, do you think the last face she wanted to see was a lawyer??? Be fucking serious man. All she knew was pain and suffering, I’ve been a fan since day one and this is by far one THE worst takes I’ve ever seen from you and to insult their mother who was dying/is already dead is such a low blow it pissed me off greatly. If someone had the audacity to insult my own like that I would’ve taken them outside to throw hands and I’m sure you would’ve too if this was your own family. Take a break, you’ve been making a lot of questionable takes. It’s really getting to you.

I'm Really, Really Tempted To Unsubscribe. You've Been Making So Many Bad Takes Recently, You've Been Being Hypocritical, And Just Overall Unsympathetic To Everyone. Like Others Have Said, You Need To Take A Break For A While And Clear Your Head Because This Is Just.. Awful. I've Been A Huge Fan For 5 Years But I Don't Think I Can Continue To Watch Someone Who Makes So Many Bad Takes.

I don’t think r/slash needs a break, but perhaps a few more lighthearted stories just to get some love back in the world

RSlash… what the actual fuck? Did you miss that the mother has been SUFFERING FOR 5 MONTHS?? Bruh.

1:51 a car horn honked out my window when he said this and it's like midnight i was like wow these sound effects are super realistic

I usually do not agree with you, and here I am again disagreeing with your opinion. Calling someone's dead mom stupid is pretty low, bro

As someone who just works entry level in healthcare it kinda pisses me off that op in that story didn’t go nuclear. Being able to prove a therapist was intentionally doing harm and telling others to kill themselves would mean the end of her license. That’s why she hung up, she knew people connecting the dots is a big deal. A therapist who chooses to hurt others for idk, some release? Does not need to be working in healthcare. I feel bad for her clients.

Rslash please take a massive break or reevaluate what you have been saying and doing lately, its really sad seeing how negative you are starting to beckme compared to how you were when you first started uploading or when you got Yugo

14:45 the correct response to someone like this is [in the most Barbie customer service voice possible] "Oh, I have, but the police told me next time I'm going to jail. Your address is xxxx xxxx xxx right?"

calling a dying woman stupid is wild ngl

RSlash… Story 5 is not it. My grandmother is sadly dead now but her life was made HELL because of 3 degenerate children who are no longer in our lives/family. She had a will. She had POA with my father. She started to lose her memory/self as she aged and her terrible kids (excluding my father and aunt) called APS and stole all of my grandmothers money, had her rewrite her will and she wasn’t able to move anymore towards the end of her life. How you handled that story was crass and heartless. It’s easy to say make a will. My grandma did and then it was thrown out for her new version that she was manipulated into. That and never speak ill will of the dead.

Rslash is slowly becoming the type of content creator everyone hates. The lack of sympathy is baffling for the poor dying mom. Yes, a will is easy to make, but it takes MONTHS of work to go through and all the assets take time to calculate. She was likely too far onto her illness to handle those things. It seems like that week long vacation in the grand canions didn't do him any good.

Really wish Rslash would upload more happier or funny stories - or palate cleansers at the end

OP in the last story should have told Kathy that she needs help because someone kept calling their job and telling her to hurt herself and it's really getting to her. Then before Kathy can respond say 'you know what, never mind, that person is right' then hang up leaving Kathy with the agonizing guilt that she was responsible for someone hurting themselves.

Take a break rslash

Story 5: Some illness can prevent you from making a will that will stand up in court, as they might not be considered legally competent to make such decisions due to degradation of mental capabilities. So yeah, the mom COULD have made a will, but it may have been extremely easy to overturn and she probably knew that.

Sounds like that therapist in the last story works for Better help.

Just FYI: having a Will is infinitely better than not having one but ideally you should be setting up a Trust. Most lawyers will try to get you to execute a will because not only do they get paid to write the will but they get paid again to probate the will once you pass. A trust will avoid probate.

My Masters degree advisors were very noted about the volume and quality of writings done with their names on it. You can bet that nothing got passed them. Everything was properly notated, etc. I even got cited in other journals afterwards by their efforts. This I found out at the 5 year anniversary of my undergraduate class graduation. A fellow alumnus congratulated me on the paper that I researched later. Thank you to my advisors.

In Oregon you have to have two non-related witnesses and a notary to make a will. Which means you have to find two friends who can take time off during the business day. It is a pain.

Story 5: Although, I agree the will should’ve been made long before her death, the way it was worded felt a bit harsh. Not to mention, OP said ‘mom’s husband’ not ‘dad’ implying this isn’t their dad, or something similar. Although I’m not certain, it could indicate why a will wasn’t made, as their mother’s life changed

....you have changed, and not for the better your take on the dead mom was sickening.

oh no, he needs another break for his super hard job where he just has to read out reddit stories.. insane that this job could be so difficult when you offload the editing anyway, the editer msutve been like 'oh man hes done it again' when he heard the clip about the dead mom. before anyone says this is difficult, literally r/slash is a dime a dozen, the only different thing to other reddit story people is he has amassed a larger audience honestly just due to most people not fucking leaving after these horrible takes myself included.

Agreeing with everyone calling for a break here. How would you feel if your only remaining family member passed, leaving you feeling alone and isolated, just for someone to call them “dumb and stupid” because they didn’t act in the most “rational” way when they were seriously ill? This isn’t constructive reflection on a story, this is just unkind. Take some time away and come back refreshed, this isn’t want you want to be putting out into the world.

I think the last story with the call center was an actual strategy the therapist used to get more clients. Okay, so imagine this. You’re constantly tormented at your job, never having a break and even gaining low self esteem or mental health. So what d’ya do? You go to a therapist. The closest one? That therapist lady. It’s like some sorta step by step method to worsen people’s health to get more clientele. Kinda like a security company getting people to ‘break in’ to a house to make people believe they need the products they provide

In relation to the last story, you can report the therapist to their licensing board as well.

"Lazy" story: 100% the husband was keeping his abusive narcissistic tendencies on the downlow until after the wedding. The mask was finally dropped only after they got hitched. Many abusers are like that. They are narcissistically charming and fool everyone so that when the abused tries to go for help, they are not believed. Dude's legit a monster.

story 5: Rslash you cant really blame her without knowing the facts, what if she had health issues that prevented her from signing anything?
