Garnt laughing at his own Squid Game joke while Joey and Connor ignored it was painfully relatable.

When I was a kid my dad would automatically give me the biggest room. He explained it as "since I was a growing boy, I need the room." Until my sisters were born and then I always got the smallest room. When I asked him about it, he said "They're girls. . . .what else do you want me to say?"

Honestly, what Garnt did that time meditating is how I deal with work everyday. Just in my head think about fanficion ideas, commissions I can create, and visualizing in my head scenes from fanfiction that I’ve read before while putting cones of yarn on the machine. It really helps the time fly by. You would not believe how many times I’ve visualized “Sage of the New World” in my head, or the times I’ve self inserted my OC into various series.

The moment Grant said "Indigo" league instead of just the pokemon league convinced me how much of an impact rewatching pokemon left him with that he remembered that name, lol.

Did Garnt just do the Baki mind training thing for Pokemon? 🤣

I have done this many time when I worked in retail years ago. I used to play movies in my mind while working so the time would pass by and it absolutely help stave off the monotony.

Ah, when I was a kid, I was given a room to share with one of my brothers because we were the youngest(2 years apart) and my older brothers were much older(10 and14 years respectively). Once they moved out, I took my brother's small room because it was about the same size as our old room, then my 2 year older brother claimed our original shared room, my other older brother's room, and the attic. I reclaimed one of them when I turned 17(He was still with us til 21), but I was quite aggravated my parents let him claim three rooms as his own for many years.

As someone who learned to meditate recently,I am suprised that 7 year old Garnt was able to sit still for 15 minutes

The fact that he didn't get diagnosed with ADHD till adulthood makes Garnt's story that much funnier

I got the attic... which was the biggest room in the whole house. The only downside? It got extremely hot or cold there, depending on the season.

Oh god, I remember doing that with Pokémon as a kid aswell. When I'd be left at my grandma's house she barely had any stuff so as a kid I would just get bored and replay episodes of Pokémon or whatever I was watching at the time in my head. I still find the idea of just watching TV in your fuckin mind hilarious.

When I was a teenager, we bought an old house that needed a lot of work before we could even move in... I ended up getting the best room because I was the only one of the three siblings who bothered to regularly go look while my parents were busy renovating, so I figured out which room would ultimately have the best perks.

I used to share with my younger sister and she used to have nightmares very often so I always got woken up around 1-2 am each night. Later we built a second bedroom out of a part of the kitchen, it was really small (barley fit a bed and dresser) and me being the oldest and very logical and stupid gave the room to my sister since she had more toys and thus needed more space, came to regret it when we grew older.

jesus that reminds me of how when i was a kid my parents would tell me the meditation sessions would only last like 10 minutes to get me to shut up but not knowing how long they were was torturous I JUST GOT TO THE END AND I USED TO WATCH WHOLE EPISODES OF SHIT IN MY MIND ASWELL

I always had to share rooms growing up when we all got older we got separate rooms and I always had the smallest room but I always saw it as a blessing in disguise cause it forced me to organize and use what little room I had to its full advantage to this day the idea of leaving something on the floor or on my bed still appalls me

I got relegated to the attic, sucks in summer but at an later age not having to share a floor with anyone is great

When I was 5 my parents bought a two bedroom house. They got one bedroom I got the other. When I was 12 my sister was born. She slept in thier with them. Got a separate bed when she was five. When i was 22 I finally moved out and she got my room. So my little sister had to spend 10 years sharing my parents room. Moral of the story, if you invest in a house to plan to live in for the rest of your life, make sure it has a spare bedroom as you never know when your family will expand.

For a large part of my teens I didn't even have a room, I was forced to sleep on the couch. The worst part though my sister who had a room because "girls need privacy" slept on the other couch more often than not. So she had a room that she barely even touched.

I was very lucky that my parents were irresponsible enough to let me and my sister stay home alone when we turned 7-8. Didn’t have to go with them to boring adult events. It was a good thing that I knew better than to touch the stove or pick up the house phone to call people. I just wanted to watch TV and play my PS2.

I remember every time I was restricted from playing video games because I had bad grades, I would think about a game I completed several times and try remembering all the things I had to do from the beginning to the end of the game.

I expected garnt to change the hour on the clock and the whole group went like damn, that went by fast!

I actually remember doing this with SAO when I was bored. (I was new to anime at the time)

i have a thing with music always playing in my head, and i've used garnt's strategy alot. If im really bored in class, i just start playing machine girl or smth and time flies by really quickly. the music goes faster than it actually is, though, so i need to listen to it twice in order to pass the full length of time that it would take if i were to actually listen to it

I watched tv in my head in situations like this when I was a kid. Someone told me much later it had to do with my ADHD.

am i the only one feeling that connor is getting gaslighted by his parents here xd

"Whats decided to get which bedroom?" I can't fathom this question cause I always had to share a room with my told two older brothers practically whole childhood.

I absolutely relate to garnt with the pokemon story. Whenever im on a 3hr family road trip to visit my grandparents i would watch every dragon ball z episode (not in order) i could possibly remember. It really does work

Guess I wasn't the only kid who used to recite anime episodes during classes, or spiritual meetings. And now, I just think about how I should farm for my games, work ( coding, so reciting logics work ), zone out and stare at that wall for no fucking reason

Those who get the room should be gratefull that they even got a room....my house is just a 2 room house ,1 room having small space and a kitchen and other being a room a where every family member sleeps

When i was younger my family moved quite a few times, the first time we moved my sister and i played rock, paper, scissors and whoever won got to pick their room. The next time we had to move, the one who lost the first time got to pick and so on.

I’m the second youngest of five kids, and my youngest brother and I had to share a room until my older brothers started moving out. The part that I hated is that even though we had TWO PEOPLE my older brothers still had first picks, so my brother and I shared the smallest room for 13 years

I have literally gone through levels of games in my head to pass the time in meetings. Then I actually play those levels later and get a better score

Been in the same room since I moved into my house in '05, my brother and I used to share the room, then my family did some rearranging and when my sister moved out, my brother got her room while I kept our room. After that, it was customary that if a guest came to stay over, instead of getting the guest room, my parents would make me give up my room since it was comfier, at least until I got older and the guest room was revamped. Ironically, my room, despite tying with the guest room as the smallest, ended up being the best since it had more insulation packed into it, meaning it's the warmest room in the winter and the coolest in the summer.

Pretty much had to deal with the gatcha pulls my mum made up when getting a room.

I'm the oldest son with my fraternal twin brother, so cause it's a hassle, I given a room the same with them, we have bunk bed that have another bed below it, so it have three bed basically. Cause I'm older and probably weight more, I sleep at the lowest one which basically the close to the floor, my youngest brother of the twins don't like height so he get the bunk bed in the middle, while my middle brother get the one at top. When we got bigger, that room is becoming smaller the same with the beds, so it became a guest room, while we moved to 2nd floor bigger bedroom, we still use on the same room, but the room is much bigger and can hold up to 3 separate mattresses without the bed frame. It's amazing that now I think that we never have our own room and always sharing, after I got graduate from Highschool, my family and my brother moved to another house, while I'm living at rent place for pursuing higher eduacation.

Been jumping from apartment to apartment my entire life so (for cost efficiency) my brother and I have always shared the same room.

I never “watched” episodes, what I did was make a long and complicated story line, about how my super heroes will awaken when I will die, I still have hope deep down in my heart.

My parents always gave the room that was closest to their own to my sister and I got the one that was further away. No matter if it was bigger or smaller she'd get the room closest to them. Reason being that in the event of a home invasion, I'd be the first room the perpetrators would interact with since I'm older and a boy. I didn't really care that much since I was always on the computer, so having a big or small room didn't really matter to me. Actually, their reasoning did help out at one point; I was up late one-night playing games and I heard people running around outside our house and try to enter. I immediately bolted to trigger the alarm and wake my parents, the secuirity personel did find evidence of break-in attempts and footprints along the ground outside my window. My parents also told me several times after that incident that they didn't mind me staying up late at night even if it was a school night, because it made them feel a lot safer. Even though I would never be able to stop any actual intruders. The fact that I was awake and could hear if anything ever happens was enough for them.

Garnt just entered his Mind Palace.

It was first dibs the 1st time, a race for the 2nd time, the 3rd time it was first dibs and the 4th time it was second choice.

I don’t remember picking the room, I just picked the color of the wall when I was able to

My parents had a new house built when I was 11. At some point my dad shows me around and when we reach the attic, there's a really big room there and he says that it's my sister's bedroom. I felt so shafted... Nobody told me we could claim bedrooms, so I ended up with the second smallest bedroom which was next to the bathroom (the smallest being the guest room). My cousin has three kids and also just has a new house. Their two eldest boys share a room and their little sister get a bigger room all to herself.

As the oldest I mostly get the first pick give or take a room that is smallish I guess for my things and a few commodities being a secret shelf like a bigger windowsill ledge for my toys in both cases As for Garth’s brain hack it’s something I’ve been doing for years as a kid especially when going to church as it mostly help pass the time and when Reading stuff i don’t like

Whenever me and my brother were younger, we shared the biggest room and as we got older and started fighting really badly, we were told to figure out who was moving out of the room. My brother chose to move into the smaller room just because it was further from the other one and had better wifi for his Xbox

mindfulness, another example of "clearing your head". Think of it like this, meditate and think of as much "noise" as possible. eventually you fade.

Garnt opened the 3rd eye to watch Pokemon.

I tried to rewatch pokemon in 2017. I couldn't do it LOL

For me and my brothers it was first come first go. We a room became available, the first one of us that slept in that room got that room

my sister always cluttered the entire floor with clothes and genrally the most messiest so she got the smaller room, then there was only so much mess she could make

I was the youngest of 3 and the only girl in my family. I got my own room, and it was the smallest in the house. I continued to stay there as I grew up, and my brothers shared a room with a bunk bed lmao.

Literally how I go trough boring classes what “happend in that show I watched a couple of years ago”

Honestly all my 3 brothers shared one bedroom. I had my own room as the oldest and the one who got the best grades. And my little sister had her own to as the youngest and the only daughter. My younger brothers had fight to see who gets which bed. Lol

I had three sisters, rooms were essentially decided by us after a certain age. The house was a REALLY small four bedroom, the three rooms we had were all the same size so none of it really mattered. All the same distance pretty much from the bathroom. Eventually my older sister and I got our own rooms while my two younger sisters shared. Stayed that way up untill we moved out

We don't really decide which room each sibling would be since we share it. We've never had our own seperate rooms and we're almost all adults now lol. It might seem crowded, but it made us closer literally and figuritively.

We only got a choice once we were older, and even then we kept being shuffled (but I guess when you have 7 kids and only 5(ish) Bedrooms it gets complicated) But it basically boiled down to; the 2 bedrooms by Mom & Dads upstairs were for the smaller children (1 was basically a nursery and the other was generally shared by 2-3 kids) and then the older kids got the 1 on the main floor and then the basement. It wasn't till my 3 older siblings left home and then we all got our own rooms (and then mine was taken out for renos as it was the smallest, so then there was sharing again until I moved out) Large families are Fun but man was it crowded and busy

im youngest and always got the smallest room. I was at a point where the only furniture piece in my bedroom was my bed and my sisters had an extra wardrobe IN MY BEDROOM. like damn. 6 y/o me actually thought that was normal lol

This reminds me of that one 4chan post, I believe it was, where someone had watched Shrek so many times that they once watched it in their mind during a long road trip.

I can relate to Connor so much. As a middle child, I got the small room. Shit sucks man

I got the biggest bedroom in the house. The catch being that my parents put extra cupboards in my room to store their own stuff despite already having 3 closets built into their room already. So I sometimes have them coming into my room at any time they please to get their own stuff. Happens at night sometimes too.

Me and my older brother slept in the same windowless room until i was 14, it was the biggest room in the house but i was so happay when my sisters moved out for college. At one point i was the only kid living at home, parents did renovations and had no more room and none of my sisters who were moved out at this point wanted to give me their room so i moved out, when they adk to spend the weekend at my camp in the woods knowi tell them to screw off, my mom even tried to forve me to barrow it ro them and i simply said it is my property know my m and you or them have zero power over ne now she stoped talking to me since then.

Having a personal room is already a luxury. For a long time, I shared a room with my brother.

I do this like every time I got nothing else to do just think about anime fight scenes and the next thing I noticed 5 hours just passed

Youngest here and only boy, got the smallest. Was suppose to get the bigger one when my older sister moved out. She's now a teacher and I am still waiting despite being at Uni most of the time. I also learn 't to clear my mind when at the dentist by thinking about mission on games I played. Would put me straight in a trance as I tried to remember better ways of completing games.

I don't have a bedroom, I have 2 brothers and we sleep on the second floor of our house which used to be the roof, and there is a toilet in the middle of the room but there are no walls or doors, so basically if you don't go to the bathroom downstairs not only can anyone in the room see you shitting but they also get the smell.

I’ve done that before man I wish I had the memory I did as a kid

In my case, exactly what happened to Connor happened to me. I got to choose, but it was in the age when I didn't even know how to read yet, let alone the benefits of bigger closet space.

My original childhood house had 2 master bedrooms (MB) and 2 ordinary bedrooms (OB). The second MB was intended to be the guest room, so my older sister got an OB. Then when I was born 3 years later, my parents decided to just give me the second MB full-time unless we had a guest over (which was not often, thankfully). It was lit y'all. I had my own bathroom and 3 closets. Good times...

By age, oldest picked first, the middle 2 shared a room, and I got the smallest. Personally I didn't care, as the rooms were almost the same size except for my parents , who's room was the biggest

Now we know why Garnt like Issekai so much. He just likes another dimension

at least they got a room, i had to sleep in the garage

thats exactly what i did in church as a kid I would rewatch shows I knew by heart in my head lol

My sister didnt know only one of the two rooms we could choose had air conditioning, but I did. We moved in during the summer too

Omg hahaha. This is Garnt's finest moment for sure.

Reminds me of the “I watch Shrek in full detail in my head” post Insane level of ability to visualize things in your head

garnts pokemon story needs to be animated assap

Meditation life hack, just daydream about being isekai’d.

Also the middle son. Also got the tiniest room

i'm the oldest of 3 siblings so i got first dibs on what room i chose. so obviously i chose the biggest room that my parents said were bedrooms besides the one they claimed as their's. so my bedroom is the same size as my parents' bedroom because its DIRECTLY BELOW IT on the ground floor of the house. big mistake #1. big mistake #2 came in years later when i was a teenager. there was no door in my bedroom's door way and my PC was directly in line of sight from the doorway. that means i needed to master the way of the silent fap and learn to determine when someone approaches and who is approaching from the sound of footsteps alone.

Ive done this before with Gravity Falls and Rick and Morty in class

Did and still doing it now. Only difference was before I was rewatching Ben 10

Garnt used Moody Blues!!

that has to be muppets christmas carrol for me

Living in an asian household, when moving to a new house, you follow the ancestry line 😂 Whoever is older pick first, then comes the second and so on. I was the third one. I was left with the maids room besides the kitchen for 3 years until the house extension was built. That is the real Harry Potter experience.

For most of my life we had 2 rooms for the 4 kids in my house. Me and my brother shared a room and my sister's shared a room. I didn't much care to sleep in my room so I slept in my little sister's bed because she liked to sleep next to my older sister in her bed. So my brother got a room to himself, my little sister got to sleep by my older sister, and my older sister just had to tolerate it. Then we moved into a bigger house so everyone got their own rooms and my little sister was at a sleep over so we all picked the rooms we wanted and my little sister got the bad one.

So apparently you need only watch anime to reach enlightenment.

I don't know why but I have the biggest room in our house and my sister's room is quite small. But she is married now but that room still belongs to her

My parents were pretty fair and let us pick in order of age and even though I’m the middle I usually got the room because my sister picked the small room at our old house because it had a balcony and then when we got our new house she was already moving to Uni

When it came to rooms the oldest got the big room, the 2 middle got the biggest room but had to share it, I got the smallest room but it was all to myself and was actually quite big tbh. Then when we moved and it was just me and my sister I simply said that I had ap classes and a computer that I could make money with so I needed more room for a desk and I got the room.

My brother and I just quietly agree on things most of the time. The most serious thing that has happened is that he almost scammed me out of 500kr when I was 9.

Room choices were trial by combat and currently i am the only child

since we are all relatively close in age, we all started in the same room.. my brother moved to the second room when my sister was born, and then my sister shared that room with him when I was born. Later my brother moved to the attic. so..technically, I'm still in the nurserary XD this has been my room for 27 years now

My sister and I had to share a room together until we were college students

My brother chose his room and I got the other one because I wasn't born yet. My room was much bigger and I had my own bathroom. I consider that a win.

I gamed the system as a middle child by sharing the biggest room with my sister and then developing a sensitivity to noise when I was 16 so I couldn’t sleep in a room with someone else - my sister moved into a smaller room because my parents said she’d be allowed to decorate it. I got the biggest room to myself and then after a few weeks, there was a small fire and I got to decorate my own room anyway 😎

I think my room is a bit smaller than the others but I like it, besides my brother's room was next to the toilet. Then my mom changed rooms with my brother, so he got the biggest room with a balcony. He deserved it tho (he organized it well). So it didn't bother me cause I didn't want to change my room anyway. Now I'm the only one from my family who still hasnt switched rooms. Bro moved out. I also had an experience when we were on a car trip (I have motion sickness) and I couldnt wait when there was 40 minutes left so I imagined a Code Lyoko episode in my head.

I never rlly got to pick my room until i was 13 and my family moved, in the same situation as Joey. I was the oldest and i just got my room and it was my room until i had to share with my brother, my sister got my brothers room. Then when i was 13 and we moved to a new house, my parents told me i could pick which bedroom i wanted, felt good :)

The youngest child always got the room closest to the parents and there’s a point siblings share rooms until one got too old, so they move down the hall.

I can play video games in my mind. I always do it while traveling..

My parents just decided who goes in which room

I can relate to Joey’s sister because my room is the exact same..And the wall is so thin..
