0:00.0	Hi, welcome to Smoshri's Reddit Stories.
0:01.9	I'm Shane, and today's theme is advice.
0:04.8	We're taking questions from all the advice subreddits,
0:08.1	and I'm joined by two people who you should take all your advice from.
0:12.0	Mr. Shane, I have an eyelash in my eye, I think.
0:14.8	Trevor, who has an eyelash in his eye and chance.
0:18.3	23M, no eyelash in I. Trevor got his eyelash out. Thank you. Thank you, everyone. Sorry. Huge moment. I apologize. Very big. Do you guys think you give good advice? No, Shane. Okay. I feel like I just give like what I would do. But fair. That's not the best advice, I feel like.
0:38.7	Yeah, that's fair. Yeah. I think I give, I try to. I give like an honest effort at trying to give good advice, but, you know, I'm not a perfect person. And so if something bad happens to someone that I've given advice to, then that's not my fault. I think that's a good point, though, because I think our initial views is like, you give the advice of what you would do in their situation. Yeah. But they're a different person.

Because when you don't know the person, like these Reddit stories, it's like, well, I don't know your whole thing. But I can just tell you based on my experience, what I would do. Right. Also, like, if you haven't experienced the situation before, it's kind of hard.
1:27.8	Like, if you've done something and it's like, oh, I went through that exact same thing, like, you have experience.
1:32.3	But I feel like people on Reddit probably are just going on there, like, they haven't ever done anything. They're like, well, here's what you should do. Yeah. Yeah.
1:38.4	Oh, people love, like, some of the advice you see on Reddit is, like, hardcore, like, here is the only answer.
1:45.2	Yeah.
1:45.5	It's like, damn, you're certain.
