Make him smoke the entire pack of smarties

[–] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 58 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I already took away the fortnite but he said that game sucks and is for zoomers. My son is 11.

Torture him by making him watch shows/movies with nudity on screen, while being in the same room.

[–] Anne_Teefa@hexbear.net 16 points 1 year ago (1 children)

If this is the route you want to take, go with 40 yr old virgin. Otherwise pick another movie that'll give him 2nd hand embarrassment like Beverly Hills Ninja. Or, if he starts smoking weed, show him the good stuff and make him hit a fat ass dab (please use proper judgement, that shit can hurt and it feels like you can't breathe if you fuck up)

[–] Deadend@hexbear.net 11 points 1 year ago (3 children)

There is no hell quite like seeing nudity or sex with your parents in the peripheral vision.

read a random NYT article with him

[–] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 33 points 1 year ago

That's torture.

Parenting Will Menaker style

[–] hexaflexagonbear@hexbear.net 30 points 1 year ago

Pretend go to the store for a pack of cigarettes and come back in 10 years. That'll show him.

[–] Elon_Musk@hexbear.net 30 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

You make him smoke that entire package of smarties in front of you.

Alternatively, it's a bit outdated, but 1 day blinding stew.

[–] buttwater@hexbear.net 25 points 1 year ago

Feed him a soup that makes him blind for a day, a one day blinding soup will remind him who's in charge

[–] Wheaties@hexbear.net 24 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Ah, fuck 't. That looks so relaxing, I'm lighting up again

go outside and mime smoking a cigarette. take deep breaths, hold in that fresh air, pretend to knock the ash off the the imaginary stick -- really sell it; make your kid feel like he sabotaged your attempt to quit.

[–] Dessa@hexbear.net 7 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Develop a cough. Tell him you're going to the doctor and come back with a grave expression. Tell him the doctor diagnosed you with lung cancer.

Make him smoke an entire carton of cigarettes

EDIT: wait that's a ton of money these days

[–] radiofreeval@hexbear.net 21 points 1 year ago

1 day blinding smarties

[–] Facky@hexbear.net 20 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Make him start smoking. He'll hate that in 50 years.

[–] sharkfucker420@lemmy.ml 12 points 1 year ago

That'll teach him

[–] Frank@hexbear.net 20 points 1 year ago

I would reccomend filing a large class action lawsuit against smarties and also slap a large vice tax on the smarties.

[–] Alaskaball@hexbear.net 16 points 1 year ago (1 children)
[–] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 28 points 1 year ago (1 children)

He's very soft and small with a tail.

[–] Alaskaball@hexbear.net 17 points 1 year ago

Tell him he's a good boy

[–] take_five_seconds@hexbear.net 15 points 1 year ago (1 children)
[–] GarbageShoot@hexbear.net 8 points 1 year ago

um akshually smarties are tablets, not pills

[–] Dessa@hexbear.net 14 points 1 year ago

Tell him that smarties aren't made to be smoked, then force him to eat a carton of cigarettes

[–] Shinji_Ikari@hexbear.net 12 points 1 year ago

Remind him that when you were a kid, there were many differences in your life compared to his experiences.

Then make him sit there while you rank them by how "based" each childhood memory was and how he's missing out.

[–] farting_weedman@hexbear.net 11 points 1 year ago

Start smoking a necco wafer roll cigar around the house.

[–] kristina@hexbear.net 11 points 1 year ago

Honestly your kid is based

[–] Acute_Engles@hexbear.net 11 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Ok wait like a box of Smarties? I'm confused how you could make Smarties look remotely like a cigarette

[–] KobaCumTribute@hexbear.net 21 points 1 year ago (2 children)

In the US "smarties" are these little chalk flavored sugar discs that come rolled up in plastic in little sticks. I understand in Europe "smarties" are like candy-shelled chocolates or something?

[–] Acute_Engles@hexbear.net 20 points 1 year ago (1 children)
[–] KobaCumTribute@hexbear.net 16 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Oh it's Canada where they're those, for some reason I was thinking it was the UK. In the US they're these horrible things that are basically just citric acid and sugar compacted into a chalk disk.

[–] ProletarianDictator@hexbear.net 10 points 1 year ago

smarties are good tho. solid B+ tier mass-produced candy

[–] Rom@hexbear.net 5 points 1 year ago

100% of the time I ever saw those was in Halloween candy.

Like a roll of Smarties, the pastel colored sugar discs. There's a different kind of Smarties that are made with chocolate that come in boxes.

[–] Acute_Engles@hexbear.net 19 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I see now that smarties are a different thing in the US and we would call those rockets

I get it now thanks

[–] BodyBySisyphus@hexbear.net 10 points 1 year ago

Tell him it looks like he needs a light and then set the end on fire.

[–] ChaosMaterialist@hexbear.net 10 points 1 year ago

Simple, eat all the Smarties.

[–] infuziSporg@hexbear.net 9 points 1 year ago

Snatch the smarties out of his hands, then grind them up and snort a line of them in front of him

[–] Sasuke@hexbear.net 7 points 1 year ago

you need to get your son addicted to cigarettes, and then take them away

[–] the_itsb@hexbear.net 6 points 1 year ago

pretend to roll around in catnip while he watches

Then give him some scritches ❤️ that'll show him.

[–] Gorillatactics@hexbear.net 6 points 1 year ago

The Austrian Empire got a big part of its revenue from taxes on tobacco. So when the Italian parts of the Austrian empire wanted to protest against Austria they resorted to a boycott of tobacco. The commander of the Imperial regiments stationed in Italy wanted to get it over with quickly and instructed all his soldiers to smoke in front of the Italians hoping that one of would get mad and start something that would justify a crackdown.

[–] GalaxyBrain@hexbear.net 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

What are non Canada smarties again? For us it's the same as M&Ms

[–] GarbageShoot@hexbear.net 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smarties_(tablet_candy)

They are like Pez but without the dispenser gimmick (and disk-shaped)

[–] GalaxyBrain@hexbear.net 7 points 1 year ago

We call them Rockets here
