1
We've all been added to a school group chat before, but can you imagine being held responsible for everything people say in there?
2
This is Jimmy.
3
Unfortunately, Jimmy was part of our school's football team.
4
See, our football team was known to get pretty rowdy in the locker rooms, but you know, we all thought they were normal.
5
Until...
6
One day, Jimmy stopped showing up for a few days, and we all figured, you know, he's like sick or something.
7
He never came back.
8
Instead, three days later, we all get a notification from Jimmy.
9
He started screenshotting and saving everything in the group chat.
10
And one of the rules is what happens in the group chat stays in the group chat.
11
So we start calling him out, but then one of the kids took it too far and...
12
Well, let's just read the screenshots.
13
This is what happens when you let...
14
...blood the program.
15
Huh?
16
He's snitching.
17
This is not Jimmy.
18
This is his dad.
19
And nah, gay s*.
20
Now I know what you're thinking.
21
This looks pretty bad.
22
It gets worse.
23
All of a sudden, we hear Jimmy's dad wanted to FaceTime us.
24
So one by one, all the boys join the call
25
and it's just Jimmy's dad yelling at everybody about how he's going to tell the school
26
and they're all going to get in trouble.
27
And you would think these boys would finally take this seriously and get scared for once.
28
No. They screenshotted Jimmy's dad in the call and changed the group chat wallpaper to his face.
29
Since he kept calling them sus and shaming them for being zesty in the locker room, they decided, you're going to call us gay?
30
Well, how about your own son?
31
They started spamming stickers of Jimmy in freaky positions and the pictures are so bad.
32
I can't even show you.
33
But I can draw them.
34
His dad was traumatized.
35
At this point, Jimmy's dad had enough.
36
He gathered up all his evidence and went straight to the school.
37
But there was one problem.
38
The pictures of all the students were technically not allowed.
39
So the schools had to call in the refs.
40
Imagine getting called to the school and looking at the team's booty to try to figure out who it is.
41
In the end, only a few students got in trouble.
42
But the rest of us, we still had it coming.
43
Because you see, I told you that the wallpaper was changed, but I didn't tell you what the wallpaper was before.
44
For 30 years, since 1996, our local pastor would do a group prayer before all the games.
45
The problem is, the group chat wallpaper was an AI picture of the head coach and the pastor kissing.
46
And so when the group chat got exposed, they showed the coach and the pastor?
47
Bro, that pastor never came back to our school again.
48
We ruined a 30 year long tradition, so you can't even imagine how mad the coach was.
49
He was straight yelling at us in the locker rooms.
50
But the person who had it worst of all was Jimmy.
51
His dad made him switch schools.
52
We never saw him again.
53
The only thing we have left of him are his freaky stickers.
54
RIP Jimmy.
55
Legend has it, somebody made a second group chat.
56
But nobody really knows.
57
Because what happens in the group chat stays in the group chat.
58
Thank you for watching.
59
And uh, for legal reasons, everything in here is alleged.
60
Yo, what's up?
61
Welcome to the end card where I show everybody's fan art.
62
Just wanted to check in and say, yo, this month has low-key been kind of rough.
63
Like, mentally, I've been not so good.
64
But pushing out these videos, I hope makes your day better.
65
And you know what?
66
Even though life is hard, I'm still pushing through and making content.
67
And that's what's important, right?
68
So if you're having a rough week, dude, you got to lock in.
69
Because if you don't, I will touch you.

シャドーイングとは?英語上達に効果的な理由

シャドーイング(Shadowing)は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的:ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影(shadow)」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
