Hey guys. So, today we have the long awaited, the anticipated uh Fourth of July antipasti barbecue drama that you guys have probably seen on the internet because it absolutely blew up. And so, the main person in this story time, well, subscribe with the bell icon for engagement. It’s also not a story time, so what am I talking about? The main person in this drama is Folk Medicine Remedies who now has over half a million followers on Tik Tok purely because of this drama basically. Like she posted content before but it wasn’t blown up to this extent. And her original video on this has about 30 million views if not more now since I planned this video. Let’s actually scroll back. 35 million views almost. So, she basically does a story time on this is pretty much like straight after the thing happened and she’s quite emotional, so you can tell it’s like straight after where she was invited by her son’s best friend’s mom to go to a Fourth of July barbecue with them. Um, so she was dropping the kids off and she was supposed to stay. So, she made a salad and she got there and everyone just started treating her like an outsider and she basically got kicked out of the event. My son just opened the door and gave me a hug and said, “It’s okay, Mom. It’s not your fault.” I don’t normally post things like this, but I am absolutely humiliated. And I can’t like I had to hold it together for the 15 or 20 minute drive home because I didn’t want the kids to be like completely like upset. So I was invited to a Fourth of July party the other day by my son’s best friend’s mother. And I thought it was possibly like a family party or just like a neighborhood party or something because it’s like a a road in the woods kind of thing where they’re at the end and then her mother and her uncle and then like a couple other houses. But I don’t know anybody. I’m I’m new to this area. I just moved a thousand miles away to be here. And uh so I made an antipasto salad like this big gorgeous salad and I asked you know is there anything you want me to bring you know thank you so much I was so gracious I kept reiterating that thank you so much for like inviting me I don’t know anybody here like and I get there and the kids get out and I grab the antipasto and I brought one beer with me because I was only going to drink one beer. there because I I don’t know like I have kids to drive home. Honestly, never been treated like this before and I just I can’t like imagine like having a party at your house and treating a guest like this even if like maybe it was a surprise. I don’t know. So, I walk into the house with my son’s friend’s mom and I’m carrying the salad and I have my beer and I just wanted to put the salad down and chat and introduce myself to everybody and I guess the homeowner’s name is Stasia and her husband. I don’t even know who he was. He walked by me kind of angry and like ignored me, but I was like trying to introduce myself to everybody. And her uncle um my son’s friend’s mom’s uncle and mother were there and they were the ones doing the fireworks and they had like 500 rounds and I’m just chatting not even 5 minutes in the door and somebody walks in the house and is like, “Are you going to introduce yourself to somebody?” Like it’s really rude to walk into somebody’s house and not introduce yourself. He’s absolutely flipping out outside about some stranger. And I was like so confused. I looked like a deer caught in headlights because I thought I was invited. And even the mother that like invited me, she was like, “What in the world?” Like I I mentioned that she was coming. Like, okay. So, and I was like, “I’m really sorry. I I don’t even know whose house this is.” And the girl goes, “Exactly. You shouldn’t be in here.” And I was like, “Okay.” So I walk outside and when I get out on the porch, the girl Stage I introduced myself to it. Wouldn’t even look at me. She turned herself looking away on the porch and there’s these all these people just angrily looking at me and like nasty. And one guy was like, “Welcome to the neighborhood. See you later.” And I was like, “Okay.” So I just dumped my beer out and I was just like I was totally distraught. Like I’ve never been treated like that. Like I left the salad for them. And it was like probably a $40 salad. I used all the really nice Italian cut meats and like all the vegetables from my yard. I just wanted to make a good impression. And like this is why you don’t make friends in your 30s because this like people are so nasty. And like I I literally didn’t mean to intrude. I just I thought I was a I feel absolutely horrible cuz I ruined my kids 4th of July. And like I just I feel like that was so unwarranted. I feel like it was just so nasty the way I was treated and the way that they just kind of gigged. Like a bunch of strangers just like was standing on the porch looking at me like I was like this horrible piece of [ __ ] Welcome to the neighborhood. See you later. [ __ ] you. Like that hurt. I’m like shaking right now shaking. I don’t even know. I The mother felt so bad. She was like, “Please.” She’s like, “Just follow me down to the driveway.” And like I I took her kid with me because the kid wanted to come with me and was like, “I’m not staying here.” And I was like, “I’m so sorry.” Like I I was so I couldn’t stop apologizing. And her mother, her mother, the kid’s grandmother came with her down and they were like, “Just follow us down to the house.” They gave me a whole garbage bag full of freaking fireworks and we’re like, “I’m so sorry. I can’t believe you were treated like that.” Like I just I told them I was I was like just a deer caught headline. I didn’t even know how to react. And they like I was like, “You don’t have to give me fireworks.” And she’s like, “I just I can’t believe you were treated like that. People are so nasty.” It’s actually just really sad to see. I know. The whole story is very weird. She then does a few different Tik Toks basically uh thanking people for the support. So, I know I don’t look gorgeous today. My eyes are so swollen. I literally am allergic to my own tears. That’s why I don’t like crying. This is like as much as I can get my eyes open right now. But with that being said, I want to thank everybody because I’ve been trying to get into the creators rewards program since I started on TikTok. And I’ve been on Facebook for about 10 years writing. And this really unfortunate incident pushed me into the above 10,000 followers. And I’m I’m really thankful for that. And I’m so thankful for all the support you’ve all given me. I can’t I can’t even begin to explain how much love I feel and thank you because I really needed it. I still haven’t even talked to my best friend who’s like 1,000 miles away. She’s been working the the casino track and stuff for the last week so that she can come down and visit. And I just I felt really alone and you guys have all made me feel really special. So, thank you and I really appreciate you. I also know that you guys want to see an update of what the friend’s mom said. So, I’m going to show you the screenshots of the text messages. It is what it is. I I feel like it was a weird response, honestly. But, it is what it is. I’m one good thing out of it is I met all you guys. elaborating more on what happened. I also want to reiterate a few things from my point of view. I walked into that house and I shook Stasia’s hand after I put down the salad and I even told her her name was pretty um Jake did walk past me and ignore me in the kitchen. I didn’t know who he was. My bad. Um, I do think that I’m going to get backlash for this for posting my personal experience and opinion with these people in this town. I have a feeling that they’re going to retaliate in in real life kind of thing. Um, I have been notified that I should be worried about a man named Jeff Eds and that that family, the Hicks family, knows everybody in this town and I better watch my back. It is what it is. Um, what I find really weird is that they involved my child and somebody from the school had tried to make him look bad, which is so weird to me because first of all, he’s a child and second off he was standing up for himself. I don’t wish ill on them. Um, I want them to stay as far away as possible from me. Um, I will never step foot on their property again. I will never speak to them again. And I will never I will never initiate any sort of contact. I want nothing to do with them. I I still have I still have the kid at my house with my son. And honest to God, I am terrified to drop him off. Like I really hope that the mother initiates and comes and picks him up. I probably will tell her that she has to do that because Hicks house, his house, Hicks house. Like I’m not putting myself in that vicinity. That’s It seems dangerous. the video that they posted of me in the house. I mean, I don’t I don’t really understand why they did that because it kind of validates what I was saying, but I’m not going to sit here and be like, uh, I really wish that they would have just did the right thing and, you know, we could have moved on. This isn’t my fault and I’m not going to be gaslit into thinking that I did something wrong. So the people that she is talking about seemingly have deleted their Tik Tok accounts and that’s mainly I’m talking about Stasia who’s the the like wife in this case. So Stasia Hicks and there is John Hicks and those that’s the couple whose house the party was at. So Stasia seemed to have had a Tik Tok account with about 20,000 followers on it. That account doesn’t exist. I can’t find it. And anyone that’s tagged her and stuff when you click on that account, it just simply doesn’t exist. So, we can’t really get her original Tik Toks on this, but she did post like an apology video, which is basically just her explaining how she’s not in the wrong person. My husband is not a mean person. We are not mean people. Neither is my mother-in-law. We simply did not know who this person was that come into our house unannounced to not a party. Let’s clarify. This was not a party. This was a get together of people who knew each other, okay? And just because we didn’t know her doesn’t mean that she couldn’t have stayed and hung out. We just didn’t want her in our house, okay? And there’s nothing wrong with that. So to you people that are getting on TikTok and all my social medias, first of all, or my husbands or my mother-in-laws so forth, so on and trying to bully us, I don’t care. I really don’t because you don’t know the story. You weren’t here. And for you to feel like you have to be behind the phone to bully somebody else that you don’t even know about. That says a lot about you, not me. And one more thing, we did apologize. My husband did call her directly and apologized to her. And she didn’t want to accept that answer. Okay? She didn’t want to accept that we were sorry, that we hurt her feelings. She wanted to get on Tik Tok and use it to her advantage and try to make us look like bad people and then have half the world or so forth so on hate us too rewards program seriously. And every time basically I was following the story and new Tik Toks were coming up. I just felt like these people are obviously obnoxious, right? Stasia and John Hicks are incredibly obnoxious people. Like if someone’s coming and they were invited to a party, I don’t care if you feel like, oh, like I didn’t want anyone else to come to this party. Like, you know, sometimes you can be in a mood where you’re just like, I don’t want anyone that I don’t know at this party. I just want to be with the crowd of people that I know and love. If someone has already invited to your party and they went out of their way to create a meal for it and come up, the least you can do, the most like socially aware social cue thing that you can do is just get on with it. like take it in stride. Be like, “Oh my god, yeah, I didn’t know you were coming, but thank you for bringing a salad. Come in.” Like that is what a well-mannered, well civilized, well, what’s the word I’m looking for? Well, like parented, well-mannered thing to do is like my parents taught me to not make anyone feel like that. So, if I was having a barbecue at my house and my I don’t know, friends, someone invited someone and they didn’t quite bring it up to me or like ask for my permission, but the person’s already here, I’m not going to kick them out because that’s not a well-mannered thing to do. And you just don’t do that to someone. You don’t make someone feel like unless they’re actually just behaving really wrong. Like, you don’t make someone feel like anyway, what I’m gathering from this is that they’re incredibly like not well-mannered. And then everyone in that town seemingly is super obnoxious. And it feels like to me, let me know what you think, the Stasia and John seem to be like the cool kids of that area. And everyone around them is just up their ass the whole time just trying to like Stasia, please accept me. It just feels like this like need to be accepted by the cool kids on the playground. And it’s like, this isn’t a playground anymore. You’re actually full grown adults. Act like it. Stasia posts her apology which was now reposted to which actually the the original poster medic folk remedies stitches it and it gets about 3 million views. Have to need to or want to. I am not a mean person. My husband is not a mean person. We are not mean people. Neither is my mother-in-law. We simply did not know who this person was that come into our house unannounced to not a party. Let’s clarify. This was not a party. This was a get together of people who knew each other. Okay. I was setting down food and I was chatting like I didn’t know that I I’m not some party crasher who’s coming to rob your house. Exactly. And I even told them before you showed up, I showed SA the food you were bringing so they knew that my kid and my kids’ parents or my kids’ parents, my kids parents were coming. And then because me and mom, we talked a lot about this last night and I was like, you know, I understand that I should have said something. It wasn’t my house. I should have introduced them, but I am so I don’t know the word, like such an antisocial person that when I get around people, I don’t know how I’m supposed to do things the correct way, you know. Listen, that’s totally acceptable. I understand that. I understand because I’m awkward around people as well. I’m extremely awkward around people I don’t know. That That’s awkward. Like I’m socially awkward. That’s nothing. Like I I’m going to tell you again, I don’t blame you for it. I blame them. I blame them for the way that they acted because now that I have confirmation that they physically knew I was coming, they even saw the salad that I made before I came. That gives that’s even more um grounds for this to be unacceptable. Yes. And I also want to say like I’m I’m sorry I called you to to vent about this and make it even worse, but um when me and mom were talking um that’s the first time me and her had been in that house since they moved in and it was my grandfather’s house. So they knew beforehand that you were coming and I told mom, I said, “Was everyone not in the house when she arrived?” Like they walked by her, we were talking and then everyone just leaves us in the kitchen. Yeah, that’s wild. But they knew you were there. They were talking to you and but let us in. Yeah, that’s that’s pretty wild. See, and I didn’t even know that cuz I don’t know who they were. You know what I mean? Like it’s not my home. And that that just that baffles me that they knew. She then was actually called by John Hicks, so the guy um who’s apparently the most suspicious of her coming on their property. And on the phone call, he basically tried to like butter her up, be like, “Oh, I’m sorry this happened to you, blah blah.” And then she kind of stuck her ground, which I really appreciated. All right. Um, who is this? This is Jake. This is who? Jake. Oh, okay. So, I can barely hear you. You’re like muffled. Okay. Hello, Jake. Hey. Uh, nothing was meant yesterday by the way it sounded. The only reason I come into the house is because I I didn’t know who you was. And I feel like it would have been the same at your house. Like, you don’t want to leave your house for somebody you don’t know. Let me interject for a second. It wouldn’t have been that way. I don’t treat people like that. And the way I was treated was completely irreparable. I’m sorry, but there is no excuse for the way that you spoke or not you spoke to me, but the whole entire situation went down. I would never do that. We just wanted you to come outside. So, why didn’t you just say why didn’t you just say that or why didn’t you introduce yourself? You were literally in the kitchen. I I didn’t know who whose house I was at. I was just coming to a party I was invited to with two small children. Well, I mean, I didn’t I didn’t know that. Nobody told me nothing about it. But that’s not true cuz I just spoke to Samantha and she just told me that you guys were 100% aware that I was coming. You said you were coming to drop the kids off. Oh, okay. All right. Hey, I’m not trying to comment. I mean, I I don’t know why I’m waking up to death threats. I spoke my truth. I I write online. I actually have a big following on Facebook. Not too much on TikTok. It’s a little bit bigger now. And I spoke my truth. I vented about being hurt about the situation and I said exactly what happened and that’s it. And people found you guys. But do you feel that’s Yes. I have every right I have every right to speak my opinion and how I feel I was treated. Yes. Do I think that people should be attacking you? Absolutely not. I did not send anybody your way. I didn’t even know your name until this morning when people found you. So, I mean, you can sit here and tell me that you can turn it around on me and act like I did something wrong, but I didn’t. Nobody. I just called to say I’m sorry you got passed the wrong way. Uh, nobody wanted y’all to leave. I mean, we knew the kids. Whoa, whoa, whoa. I’m going to time you out there right now, Bob, because I’m going to say this right. I’m Chris, by the way, and I’m going to say this right now. The way your mother came at my wife hot like that, just being a wretched human being, that’s unacceptable. That is not very Christian-like behavior. And I’m going to tell you right now that no matter where I’ve ever been in my life, and every state that I’ve lived in, nobody treats anybody like that. That’s unacceptable. It’s It’s just trash behavior. Oh, okay. Yeah. Well, like I said, I’m sorry that you took that the wrong way. Yeah. Yeah. There was no other way to take it. There there really was no other way to take it. And I hope you enjoyed your salad. And it was very unpleasant to me. You guys have have a good weekend. Since then, weird things have happened. This was, by the way, the salad. And everyone’s been posting reactions to this drama basically being like, I could not even have a barbecue going on and if you show up to my door saying I’m here for a barbecue with that salad, you’re being invited in. I would absolutely that up. I don’t know why you would invite her purely for that salad. That’s what I think. Anyway, maybe like this is like stranger danger for me, but if someone showed up to my door with that salad, I there’s a 99% chance I’m letting them in and I’m kidnapping you. So, you can just keep on making those salads for me. So, there’s actually a summary on Reddit. Let’s actually now go through a different point of view. The son’s best friend’s mom is called Samantha. And she was the one that actually invited Nicole, so folk medicine remedies to the barbecue. And while Nicole was being escorted, she basically didn’t stand up for her. Okay. And that’s very weird because like you’re the one that invited her, so you should have stood up and said, “Hey guys, sorry, my bad. I was one that invited her in. Can we be human about this?” So Samantha has now reached out to Nicole to apologize. Macy says that she’s very introverted and she didn’t know how to handle confrontation, which is why she didn’t step in when Nicole was being berated and interrogated. She reveals a very important detail, which is that she told Staca and Jake that she invited Nicole and had even shared the picture Nicole had sent of the food she made. Hello. Hey, Nicole. I don’t even know if if Staca has family that works at the school, do you? I do. Um, are you’re not going to record this and post me, are you? Honest to God, I record everything. I I’m not going to lie to you. I record absolutely every part of my life because I I’m in danger. I get that. And that’s why I wanted to call to like um I’m not trying to change the subject, but I need to say this before I lose it in my head. But we’ll come back to Anastasia’s family. um sister or steps sister. I’m not sure how that works, but his sister is Hang on just a minute. Let me ask who is who was your teacher that was that was Jake’s is it sister? Oh, is it? I know. But you miss your your math teacher. Correct. Yeah. Yeah, that’s what I thought. I’m not for sure how the relation is there. I just know that they are family. And then also she is dating um you know him. I don’t. He’s like the after school teacher. Ah okay. But he’s also a teacher at Not only did they know that she was coming, which John actually addresses in the phone call to Nicole, they also address the fact that they even knew that she was bringing a salad. So, what’s going on? Jake’s mother then makes a TikTok defending her actions and doubling down on the defense that it was not a party, but a barbecue for the neighbors. She shares footage from the ring camera thinking it will back her up, but everyone is instead a gasast at how nasty their behavior was on camera and all seekingly strategically cut footage. So, she quickly takes it down. Someone then also prank calls the local police and leaves a nasty message claiming to be Nicole’s husband, but the voice in the call sounds nothing like Nicole’s husband. Since then, more concerning things have been happening. There’s like the police involved now. People think that they were weird about her going on their property because they’re doing something nefarious at their house. Now, I’m not going to make these accusations cuz I’m not trying to be sued, but that’s what people think. These are comments from people on her original post. Someone said, “The Hicks know everyone in Gate City. I think you need to be careful with how this continues because if your followers continue to send them death threats and harass them, then Jeff Eds will not take it kindly. Just a friendly warning. You won’t be able to make any friends in town now easily.” And Nicole said, “Is this a threat? Because I sent exactly zero people to them. I don’t even know anyone but one first name.” I said, “Lol, you can’t be serious.” Someone else said, “Somebody who’s friends with them, works at the school, and is leaking your child’s information. File a complaint with the district.” In between all of this, she’s actually just posting her regular content, which is so cute. She’s like gardens, and she’s got her like veggies, which actually she used for the salad, which makes it that much sadder. Like, she wasted her good veggies from her garden on this salad for these people that are not well-mannered. But she’s now posting kind of like sparsely just more updates on this whole situation. So, this is one of those. So, I do have something I want to say, and it’s directed directly to the Scott County Sheriff’s Department. If you had nobody come to the scene or were involved in the incident, then why do I have videotape of the state police showing up? Because, so now the sheriff’s department has gotten involved, which is what the new update is about. So they said they would like to address recent events that have escalated due to misinformation circulating on social media. As a result, there have been cases of threats, intimidation, and vandalism directed towards the individuals involved and personnel from Scott County Sheriff’s Office. So they’re basically addressing kind of defending Stasia and John Hicks, which is very weird. This situation is incredibly strange, incredibly concerning, very weird and obnoxious. And I see why this blew up because I think everyone’s felt like an outsider at some point in their life, like felt unwanted in a situation or like you were invited and then you feel weird. So I think everyone’s just like feeling really bad for Nicole. But the fact that now the police is getting involved and they’re kind of on stage side and like all the neighbors are speaking out and it feels like a weird like inside club that no one is a part of. Children are being doxed now. I just think it’s all incredibly strange and weird, which is the same thing. But you guys let me know what you think. Um, subscribe with the bell icon for engagement and I’ll see you guys in my next one.
