| You know, I've got a lot of Canadian fans, and you hear me ask this question often. | |
| I just, I don't know what the hell goes on up there. | |
| I just never know. | |
| What is going on up in Canada? | |
| Weird stories that trickle through, and I have to cover them. | |
| And then my Canadian fans answer to me, I don't know if it's too cold up there. | |
| This story really caught me by surprise. | |
| And strangely, strangely, this Canadian woman is receiving a ton of support. | |
| Her name, for the record, is Amanda Dennis, and she published an obituary for her late father. | |
| I'm going to read for you now what that obituary states. | |
| The deceased man, her father, is named Stefan Harold Kandolsky. | |
| His daughter wrote, I am pleased to announce the passing of Stefan Harold Kandolsky at the age of 74. | |
| After suffering multiple strokes, one thankfully leaving him unable to speak, the abusive, narcissistic, absentee father-husband-brother-son finally kicked the bucket. | |
| He is survived by his daughter Amanda, grandchildren Emma, Deuce, Xavier, Jacob, and Lucas and brother Ed. | |
| He is pre-deceased by his parents. | |
| She goes on to write, In lieu of flowers or donations, just be kind to your fellow human, spread light and love where you can, and do with your life what this man clearly lacked the ability to do. | |
| Hey, Amanda! So anyways, the backstory is, because obviously people got wind of this, actually, I believe one of the places refused to publish the obituary because they just thought that this was, you know, so despicable. | |
| But no, the Canadian Outlook got wind of this. | |
| They sat down with her. She claims that some of her earliest memories with her father involved emotional and later physical abuse. | |
| Later in life, She cut ties with him completely. | |
| So at the time that this man died, she had absolutely no relationship with him. | |
| Now, of course, we are hearing her side. | |
| We're never going to hear his side. | |
| We wouldn't be able to hear it because, as she mentions in his obituary, he was left unable to speak after having a stroke. | |
| And now he's dead, right? | |
| So, you know, there's two sides to every story. | |
| There's your side, my side, and the truth. | |
| We are just getting Amanda's side. | |
| And, of course, TikTok Where I believe is within itself a mental insane asylum, is rushing to support her, telling her that it's amazing that she's done this. | |
| And so she jumped onto TikTok to thank her new obituary fans. | |
| Take a listen. Hi, everyone. | |
| I'm Amanda. And I wanted to come on here and say thank you to all the people who sent me Facebook messages and TikTok messages and were so supportive. | |
| After the death of my sperm donor, I want to let you know that it's okay to share the messy stuff. | |
| It's okay to tell people you had a shitty childhood. | |
| It's okay to not wear rose-colored glasses all the time because that is who... | |
| What makes you who you are? | |
| That is what makes you unique. | |
| That is what gives you strength. | |
| That is what your truth is. | |
| And there's no reason to hide it. | |
| I'm not gonna hide anything. | |
| I'm a human being. | |
| Humans are messy. And it is the way it is. | |
| Okay, so setting aside the fact that she just gives me crazy vibes, she just looks a little crazy. | |
| I find it interesting that people would applaud this behavior, which essentially is just her becoming what she hates, what she purports to hate. | |
| She purports to hate her father. | |
| She calls him in the obituary narcissistic and abusive, and then she puts up this video which I think proves that she herself is narcissistic. | |
| She did this. Yeah, little Deuce Xavier and... | |
| Jacob mentioned here, Lucas, if you're going to Google their names, this obituary is going to come up. | |
| The fact that they are from a dysfunctional family, this is going to come up. | |
| Amanda's video will be tied to this forever, but she didn't consider that because she herself is in fact a narcissist. | |
| Now, I want to be clear. | |
| Everybody's family has problems. | |
| Mine included. Nobody comes from a perfect family. | |
| But the idea that you should air this out because it's your truth, a la Harry and Meghan, and so every single person now has a platform to talk badly about their deceased family. | |
| Parents, he's dead. | |
| The man is gone. I'm not saying that you have to pretend he was a perfect parent. | |
| I'm willing to bet he wasn't. | |
| I'm willing to bet he probably would have had another side to the story had we been able to speak with him. | |
| But speaking this ill of the dead does not make you a good person. | |
| There's nothing about this that makes me go, wow, Amanda, how stunning and how brave. | |
| You were able to completely annihilate someone in obituary. | |
| You're not required to write an obituary. | |
| You're not required to go up to the funeral. | |
| You're not required to say anything on TikTok. | |
| You can literally pretend that you had no relationship with this man whatsoever, but you declined to do that | |
| because you wanted attention. | |
| And that's exactly what you got. | |
| You got attention for your dad dying. | |
| Just wanted to cover that story because we are strangely moving into an era | |
| where these sorts of acts are being applauded Again, not making a justification for her allegedly abusive father, but I find her to be becoming the exact same person. | |
| All right, if you like this video, you're going to like the full episode even better. |
