The greatest tragedy of Among Us is making friends and then accidentally disconnecting before you get to say goodbye
I just... I wound up hosting for a bit, and a player by the name “Dad of 3” came in to join my game
He was... well. Clueless is an understatement. When I say he has no idea what was going on, I mean the second round he was in he SLAMMED the alarm button and said “my screen said imposter what does that mean”
“It means you’re the bad guy this time, dad,” We explained. “But next time try and keep it secret, okay?”
“Okay”
The next round, he killed another player right in front of me and immediately self-reported.
“I got my first kill,” he said.
“Good job, dad!” we all replied. “You’re getting it”
He was so proud, next round, when he helped us catch the killer. And we were proud for him. He was trying so hard.
His kids showed him the game, he said — “Look dad a meme” — so he was playing it for them.
“What’s sus” he had to ask. “Is it inappropriate?” “No dad. It’s short for suspicious, because suspicious is a lot to type.” “What’s gg?” “It means good game” “ok. Thank u. gg”
Two rounds later, he slammed the alarm again. “My map looks different,” he said. “There are buttons on it”
“That means you’re the bad guy again, dad. You push them to sabotage us. Try it out”
We spent that round watching Dad of 3 gleefully pop in and out of vents at random and press all the buttons just to see what they did
“Have you killed anyone yet dad?” “No. It feels strange.” “It’s okay. It’s just a game. You can kill us if you want to practice.”
He was trying so hard. I don’t know if he’d ever even played a video game before, but he was trying so hard to understand this thing his kids enjoyed, and my little group of strangers was doing our best to help him get there.
I’m so proud of that random father’s effort, and I’m proud of all the other players who were so willing to help him learn.
Then out of nowhere he was gone. Mid-round, Dad of 3 vanished to a bad connection, and I’m legitimately sad. I’d hoped we’d get the chance to play a round for real, and I’d have liked the chance to wish him luck and say goodbye.
But since I can’t do that, I’m throwing this into the void: I hope you have a nice time, Dad of 3, and I hope we were able to help you learn so you can have fun with your kids.
Good luck out there, buddy.

These kinds of responses are my FAVORITE. Some examples to answers to this question I have heard:
1.
“Okay, and who’s the president?”
“Obama, no wait, shit *vehemently* fuck, I hate him… what’s his name…”
“It’s okay, you know who he is.”
2.
“Who’s the president?”
“*drunkenly angry and confused* ..uhhhhhhh…Orange… damn it what’s the fuck’s name….
“Yup, good enough.”
3.
“And who’s the president,”
“Not fuckin’ Obama!”
“I feel ya.”
4.
“Who’s the president- wait, nevermind you’re from Korea you said, right? So who’s-“
“Everybody knows that Trump-bitch.”
“Oh, well, alright then.”
5. (My personal favorite)
“Who’s the president?”
“Ew.”
“Good enough.”
My roommate is a neurologist and has to do this check all the time. Her all-time favorite so far has been “ay dios mio” during which the woman was vigorously crossing herself.
lol me too , lady
One time I got “that orange fuck” from a very cute little old lady with urosepsis
I have - quite unintentionally - contributed to this phenomenon.
I was waking up from surgery in the post-op observation room, where they kept people before sending them off to the ICU. The nurse was talking to me as I was semi-awake, telling me that as soon as it was ready, I would be sent to room 2008.
I did not hear the word “room”.
I started trying to sit up and get out of bed (entirely unsuccessfully), shouting (mumbling forcefully), “He’s not president yet! I have to warn everyone!”
That’s awesome. Thank you for trying to warn us
i’ve been looking for this post for ages and it finally crossed my dash again
(( *smiles* the post is back))
Paramedics had to stop asking “who’s the prime minister?” in Australia because it changed so often that not knowing the answer wasn’t really all that indicative of anything.
One paramedic reported receiving the answer “I haven’t watched the news today”.
Meanwhile in Germany, the joke goes that a teenager is waking up in a hospital bed, the nurse asks them who the chancellor is and they say, “hang on are you telling me that can change?”
[ID: a screenshot of a tweet from peytonspan13. It reads, “a girl in one of my classes today had a seizure and when the paramedics were trying to talk to her they asked her a bunch of questions. she finally came to when they asked her who the president is and she deadass mumbles “dont make me say it”“. /end ID]
