Why I’m a bad person [DHxG6O6_Q8A]

So, so you and me, we've had this thing

going on between us for quite a while now,

and before I let it go on any longer,

there's a few things I want to tell you

about myself. I want to be honest because

honesty is important in a relationship.

In general, I think I'm a fairly nice and

good person, but there are a few things

I've done in the past which no human being

should ever ever do. List of reasons why

I'm an awful human being. Number 1, I

quite enjoy stealing. I don't do it

anymore, but when I was a kid, when my

school would take me out on school

outings, we would go to a fancy place like

a castle or a nice-looking park, and

sometimes they would have a souvenir shop

or a gift shop, and me and my friends, we

would dare each other to take a little toy

or trinket and slip it into our pockets

and see if we could walk out of the shop

without triggering the alarm system. And I

did this several times and I never got

caught, which kind of makes you wonder,

what's the point of having those alarm

systems if they don't actually do

anything? I also used to steal food from

the school's cafeteria. At the school's

cafeteria, we had a counter and there

would be sandwiches and snacks and food on

it. And you had to choose— you had to

choose your food, place it on the tray,

and then pay money. And what I did was I

would take a couple items, just a

sandwich, place it on my tray, but then I

would sneakily take packets of crisps and

slip them into my pocket without paying

for them. And I never got caught. But I

think my kleptomaniac days are well behind

me because the last time I ever stole

something from a shop was About 5 years

ago in Japan, I really wanted to buy this

little spoon which looked quite nice. I

wanted to buy it for my ex-Korean

girlfriend, but there was this massive

queue of people queuing up, and I really

didn't want to stand there waiting to

queue up, so I just took the spoon and I

slipped it into my pocket and I walked out

of the exit and no one realized.

And the reason why I enjoyed stealing so

much wasn't because I didn't have enough

money to buy the things I wanted to steal.

It was never about— it was never about

money. It was always because of that

exciting feeling, that adrenaline rush of

taking something, walking out of the shop,

and not getting caught. It feels like

you've won some kind of game. The element

of risk is what makes it exciting and fun,

and I think A lot of people get hooked on

that feeling, on that rush, and it becomes

a bit of an addiction and it becomes a

problem. And when I was working at a

Japanese convenience store, I used to work

in a convenience store called Lawson, I

would take coffee from the storeroom and

just drink it on my break without paying

for it. And I felt as though I didn't need

to pay for it because I worked there.

Aren't I entitled to have a drink for

free? Why do I have to pay for my drinks?

I also stole from my friends a few times.

I had this friend called Ben. He came

round to my house and he brought his

Pokémon collection, and when he went to

the toilet, I stole his shiny monkey card.

And then he came back from the toilet and

he checked his collection and he noticed

it was missing, and he asked me, Daniel,

did you take my shiny monkey card? And I

said yes, and I gave it back to him. And

there was this other time when I went to

my friend David's house and his little

brother had his Pokémon collection just

lying there, and right on the top there

was a shiny Jigglypuff card, and I took

it. And I didn't feel bad about it.

I actually still have it, it's right here.

No, it's not. Number 2: I've cheated on

several partners in the past several

times, and this is mainly because I just

didn't really feel very satisfied

emotionally or physically with that

relationship, and that's the reason why I

decided to cheat on those partners. I

think that if I found myself in a

relationship where I was physically and

emotionally satisfied, then I really don't

think I would cheat. I really don't

condone cheating. I think it's a really

bad thing, and fortunately I've never been

cheated on before, so I'm I don't really

know how painful it feels, but I'm pretty

sure it feels fairly painful. But

sometimes you find yourself in a

relationship where your needs aren't met,

and you don't want to leave the

relationship because being alone is lonely

and scary. And then someone comes along

and they fulfill your needs in ways that

your current partner doesn't. And then,

you know, you fall into this trap of Oh

no, oops, I just cheated on my girlfriend.

Now in my defense, the reason why I

cheated was, like I said before, my needs

weren't met and I didn't really feel as

though that relationship or those

relationships were very important. So I

didn't really care that much if the

relationship got destroyed. If I found

myself in a really important relationship

with a girl who I really liked, I'm fairly

confident that I would not cheat. Number

3, sometimes I lie. Now, I'm not a

compulsive liar. I don't enjoy just lying

for the hell of it, just for fun. I'm not

the kind of person who just makes up

stories just for, for laughs and giggles.

The only reason I would lie is either to

protect myself or to protect others.

I use lying as a way to avoid upsetting

people. For example, if you asked me if I

think you're ugly or fat, I would say,

no, you look great. If you asked me if I

liked you, I'd say, yeah, I think you're a

great person. If you asked me if I thought

you were boring, I would say, no, you're,

you're such an interesting, great person.

What are you talking about? And that is

how you effectively use lying as a tool to

prevent people's feelings from being hurt.

And a lot of people like to say that lying

is bad and you shouldn't lie, But I don't

agree. I disagree. I think that lying is a

very good, effective tool to help society

flow along smoothly like a river.

And if everyone just told the truth to

each other all the time, everyone would be

fighting each other all the time, and

people would be saying mean things to each

other all the time. Sometimes you need to

lie a little to, you know,

And if you are a grown adult and you claim

that you've never lied to anyone ever,

then you're lying. I just don't

want to hurt people's feelings directly to

their face. Sometimes I might go onto the

internet and say rude things about people,

but I only say those things because I feel

confident that they won't ever find out

that I've said those things. If I felt as

though there was a high chance of them

hearing or seeing the rude things I've

said about them, I would never say them.

I would only ever say something rude about

someone behind their backs if I feel

confident that they wouldn't find out

about it. And those are some reasons why

I'm not such a great human being, and I'm

really sorry my face looks kind of oily

today. It's because I haven't had a shower

in 2 days. Hello and welcome back to

another exciting episode of Cooking with

Daniel, today we're going to be making

something a little special. I'm making

Turkish shish kebabs. I bought these

ingredients off tesco.com. Get your 10%

discount with code

tesco.com/hidinginmyroom. No, I'm just

kidding. Tesco didn't sponsor me. And here

are the ingredients you'll be needing for

today's cooking lesson: 1 onion, a red

pepper, leg lamb steaks,

cumin, lemon juice, basil,

oregano, vegetable oil,

paprika powder, mustard powder,

mixed herbs, salt,

and finally black pepper.

Now it's very simple to make. What you're

going to need is one of these glass bowls,

and basically we just add everything into

the glass bowl, cut the lamb up, and then

soak it in the glass bowl for a bit, and

then put it in the oven.

And there is the finished product. As you

can see, a little bit of charring going on

on the vegetables, which is okay, nothing

wrong with that. Hopefully the meat's

cooked inside. It smells really good.

All by myself.

Oh, look, it's pretty,

pretty good. Oh, I'm dropping it. Oh,

it's hot.

One for me and One

for you.

Hmm.

Hmm.

Hmm,

it's pretty good actually.
