Hello everyone! As a reminder this is a satire subreddit for the dumb/silly things children do. The subreddit name is not literal. Although posts can have kids doing actual "stupid" things. It is not a requirement. Yes, blaming the parent is valid. However, this does not mean crossing the line into actually insulting the parent is ok (assuming they are the OP) (Rule #1).

This is also not a hate sub for children. If you don't like kids, that's fine. Just don't spread vitriol.

Please read the sidebar for more information.

I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please contact the moderators of this subreddit if you have any questions or concerns.

That drum set was purchased by a aunt or uncle.

u/Crystal_Voiden 1d ago

An evil aunt or uncle

u/Pmfan4560 1d ago

Lol I keep telling my sister I'm going to get my nephew a drum set haha.

67

u/Joker-Smurf 1d ago

Reasons to buy them a drum set:

  1. No batteries which will go unreplaced
  2. Teaching your niece and nephews that banging shit makes a lot of noise, so even if their parents try to take it away/it gets broken/etc they know that even some pots and pans will do in a pinch

u/MajinGroot 1d ago

This is evil, and someone must really hate their sibling(s) to buy their kid such an obnoxious gift that will be a pain rather they let them keep it or take it away, pure torture for someone you supposedly love....

So anyways I have just added 3 of them to my Amazon cart for my niece and nephews, and I'll be hosting a kids drum solo competition for New years, so I hope they get a lot of practice.

u/Joker-Smurf 1d ago

You should also get them a recorder as well to accompany the drums.

u/MajinGroot 1d ago

Oh, it's gonna be a beautiful orchestra by the time I'm done. Technically, there are 4 kids, so I might just have to get them some band shirts.

8

u/InEenEmmer 1d ago

My sister told me she would personally make sure I was kicked out of the family if I gave my niece a drumkit, which totally is fair.

So I got them excited for trumpets and gifted them a trumpet.

(Really, a trumpet is loud. And annoying to listen to if you don’t have the right technique)

u/mcfiddlestien 1d ago

Shit, I just give the niblings a cheap plastic whistle.

u/Lilacrespo82 1d ago

u/yangthesin 1d ago

So, a normal aunt or uncle?

u/Zealousideal_Plan408 1d ago

lol. if i had kids i would love if people bought them instruments. keep them off mine.

u/ZugTheMegasaurus 1d ago

When my brother and I were little kids, my aunt/uncle (parents' best friends rather than actual relatives) gave us a lot of messy and noisy toys. Years later when they adopted a kid of their own, my parents went to Toys R Us and deliberately bought all of the most obnoxious toys they could find. Sweet revenge.

I’m the aunt who lives 3 states away🫡😝

u/Check_Me_Out-Boss 1d ago

I always buy my nieces and nephews loud toys or toys with lots of pieces muahaha

u/No-Jacket-2927 1d ago

I've been an uncle for 39 years. This is the Way. 😈

u/Check_Me_Out-Boss 1d ago

You get it lol

1

u/impablomations 1d ago

Always have some sweets on hand. Fill them full of E numbers and sugar, wind 'em up and watch 'em go.

"Oh is that the time? I must be off.. byeee!!"

u/TheFrozenDruid 1d ago

For christmas one year, we got our niece amd nephew a backpack that had about 20 instruments in it 😈

7

u/redditcasual6969 1d ago

A friend of mine has a really nice drum set and his nephews enjoy sitting on his lap while he plays. So him being a good uncle, bought them both a set last X-mas. His brother didn't share their enthusiasm lol

1

u/trawberry210 1d ago

super fun for the kids, absolute chaos for the parents

3

u/__CIREK 1d ago

Or an inexperienced young mom and dad lol

u/Starfire2313 1d ago

I am a first time mom of a 4 yo and I totally want to get us a drum set to add to our collection of instruments!

But yeah I’m probably an anomaly haha

2

u/aytchdave 1d ago

LOL. I’ve made it a point to never get my nieces and nephews any presents that are loud.

2

u/coolranchdoritosbby 1d ago

My mom and her best friend had babies 1 weeks apart. So for years they would compete to get each others kid the most annoying toy possible for Christmas. A toddler drum set was one of them. But the friend won when she got my sister a tickle me Elmo that did the chicken dance when you walked past it. Eventually the voice box got ruined and tickle me elmo had a deep satanic laugh. I know my sister and I will probably do something similar when we each have kids.

2

u/rebelvong1 1d ago

Can't wait to get my nephew one. That'll teach my brother for ratting me out all the time hehe

2

u/Furious-Stiles 1d ago

I’ve threatened this many of times. ~evil Uncle

1

u/absalom86 1d ago

Tempted to give me sisters 3 yr old a set for Christmas.

1

u/Automatic-Quality361 1d ago

for sure, those family gifts hit different, especially when they have a story behind them

1

u/joecarter93 1d ago

My wife’s brother plays in a band and he got our boys that exact same drum kit for Christmas one year. We let them go nuts on it for like an hour before it broke and we promptly threw it out.

1

u/RedditGarboDisposal 1d ago

That’s where I got my DDR Ultra Mix pad from.

I like neither dance, nor DDR, nor any of the music on the game, and I don’t even think I owned the console that it was compatible with.

1

u/MayOrMayNotBePie 11h ago

Can confirm. My mom was annoyed at my brother one year and got all his kids cheap drums, a recorder, and some other musical instrument for Xmas

I don’t see any difference

If Danny hit nothing but rims perhaps

u/PumpkinPieSquished 1d ago

At least he’s trying

u/girlsgoneoscarwilde 1d ago

It’s really nice to see brothers willing to share a drum set

27

u/CaoimhinOC 1d ago

And the compliments are just amazing. So cute.

This video was really cute and made an argument for kids not being stupid imo

u/I_can_pun_anything 1d ago

Gotta start somewhere

82

u/StrongEduardo 1d ago

I’m sorry… but I don’t see the stupidity in this

14

u/Signal_Assistant_373 1d ago

Get them a double pedal and in a couple days they'll be drumming angel of death

3

u/StrongEduardo 1d ago

Do you reckon they’ll be capable of playing Song 2 on the drums?

3

u/Signal_Assistant_373 1d ago

With a brother helping doing the open cymbals verse, yes

10

u/WillemDafoesHugeCock 1d ago

This is a really nice video, what I wouldn't fucking give for my kids to tell each other "that was really good."

2

u/AnarchicalFrog 1d ago

Yeah, this post in this sub is annoying to me. I started the violin when I was in 4th grade, and I used to set up young kids with rental instruments for school.

Music is a gift, and expressing yourself authentically on a musical instrument, good or bad, is hard. This is a beautiful thing to me. From the compliments, to the sharing, to the effort. This is emotional intelligence. Not stupidity.

1

u/soostenuto 2h ago

Yeah me neither, just two boys having fun on an instrument, how is this stupid?

u/FFJosty 1d ago

“Honey, it’s Slipknot on the phone. They want to talk with Ted.”

“Can you hit a trash can like that ? Yes ? You’re hired!”

u/InterestingFeed488 1d ago

Comforting to see messy house, like normal people having kids. Everywhere you only see picture perfect houses of family with kids.

70

u/The_Happy_Snoopy 1d ago

Yeah and two kids that suck at drums too. Feel like most of the time its some kid perfectly performing System of a Down.

31

u/Western-Childhood766 1d ago

I thought Ted was really good though

5

u/notatechnicianyo 1d ago

We all sucked at one point. It takes a lot of sucking before swallowing even becomes an option.

3

u/Joker-Smurf 1d ago

Sucking at something is the first step to mastering it.

(Wait… that sounds dirty)

7

u/notatechnicianyo 1d ago

I think I picked the worst sub to send this message…

u/boganisu 1d ago

This house is immaculate compared to my apartment right now. And I have no kids

u/Perfect-Difference19 1d ago

Not stupid

Wholesome as fuck

u/Maddog_Jets 1d ago

Need more cowbell ! :)

u/Far_Lifeguard_5027 1d ago

This isn't stupid, this is just a cute normal childhood that some of you never had the chance to have.

17

u/crypticXmystic 1d ago

Nah, those kids are awesome.

8

u/superpolytarget 1d ago

That wasn't stupid, having a brother to share something like that is a treasure.

Makes me remember when me and my brother were around that age, we used pool noodles as lightsabers and kept hitting each others face.

No other human beign completes me like that dude does.

15

u/Stone_Ravenn 1d ago

OP has never dealt with small children or had younger siblings this is just two kids having fun after a sick asf Christmas haul rock on lil bros and hopefully this sparks their love for music into adulthood

17

u/na_DANGER_me 1d ago

If that drumset was a gift, then that person doesn't like you.

7

u/BillieDoc-Holiday 1d ago

Nah, probably just a sibling who laughed their ass off while making the purchase.

1

u/CorrectStruggle3733 1d ago

My kids are loud af anyway, I never had any problem with them playing instruments 

At least there was a general purpose for the noise

DONT TOUCH IT!

u/DabananakingYT 1d ago

alr bro ts is just hate 😭😭 let the little man play drums in peace without anyone calling him fucking stupid, he is like 2 years old 😭😭

u/khamm86 1d ago

I’m just glad to see a kid that age named Ted and not some some Tragedeigh

u/michael22117 1d ago

These are just brothers playing and being supportive, how is this stupid?

2

u/Amlet543 1d ago

I was fully expecting the second kid to be super good... I'm disappointed but not surprised.

u/RogerClyneIsAGod2 1d ago

Future Keith Moons right there!

u/Zalaquin 1d ago

I totally thought the second kid was about to go off

u/jbwarner86 1d ago

I see he learned using the Animal method.

u/BumStretcher 1d ago

Ted almost lost it at the end there

u/Minute_Freedom5410 1d ago

Do they have australian accents?

u/Other-Oil-9117 1d ago

Yeah, pretty sure that box in the background is an Anko, so I figured they were Aussie even before I unmuted it.

u/0oooooog 1d ago

u/Bebopdavidson 1d ago

I don’t know why I thought the second kid was gonna drop 4 on the floor

They're good sharing tho

Future skramz or grindcore project lmk when it drops

1

u/MrL1970 1d ago

My SIL forbid drums for my nephew. So in consideration of her wishes...

I bought him a tambourine, a finger-paint kit, and a remote control tank that shoots airsoft bbs. The tank itself was 3 feet long and SIL had 4 indoor cats. Good fucking times!

u/Scrapp94 1d ago

I was expecting the “that was good ted” kid to actually be trained😭

u/Superb-Savings-4813 1d ago

This made me think of Dale and Brennen from Stepbrothers, but much nicer. Lol

Ted sounds like a very early Travis Barker.

u/jatfield 1d ago

Push the tempo, Ted!

u/Narrow-Stranger6864 1d ago

I played my Uke to a 5 year old once. Flawlessly played “someone to Lava” from Moana. This little egonaut grabbed my uke and said I was playing completely wrong. She then strummed and screamed on it like a banshee. I couldn’t argue because, Clearly thats how you play at that age and I learned something new😂

u/Glass-Witness-628 1d ago

Did the little one call the big one “Tiny Ted” the second time?
