FP EDIT: wow! Thank you guys so much! I'm thankful you guys got me to front page, it really made my day! I hope you guys have a great day! FP EDIT x2: this was also for an Ed, Edd & Eddy Scam posting group on Facebook. I don't know how it got so famous on here.
TchallaVII
This show had an actual ending?
Deanscream
And why the Ed's bonded over something so simple as jawbreakers.
LeagueOfExtraordinaryOwlbearnians
Ed did have a tv in his bedroom
thegirlfromtheplaceyouknow
My boyfriend and I just had a discussion about Ed and his room in the basement. This explains so much.
CosmoRaider
Jesus christ. That's crazy.

DrunkM0nk3y
I like the one where they are all in like limbo and they all died from something, it's a really interesting theory on the show
BrockenSpectre
I always thought double D had a pretty fucked up family, who removes the bathroom in their house without telling their kid?
unikorv
SiRoj90
the real question is what's under that fucking beenie
GreenYawgmoth
It's Rolf. Life has many doors, Edd-boy!
LurkingTrout
The reason why his parents are never home
missingteef
i always got so pissed as a kid not knowing what the deal was with Edd's beanie. WHAT IS HE HIDING!?
UltraLegoGamer
Might not be Canon, but I think that Edd throws his hat up in an old CN game and it shows small strains of hair.
Emby
I've always assumed it was a surgery scar or something. Just because of the shock Ed and Eddy had when seeing it.
TL12
That actually makes a lot of sense. A random bald spot from surgery would be pretty surprising to a kid.

Gianttesticlemonster
Apparently same as hey Arnold and that's why all their heads look so messed up. That and Helga is straight up neglected by Big Bob/Mirium.
cutepiku
Arnold is definitely not abused. Helga though...
Gianttesticlemonster
It's a creepypasta theory.
Koshunae
Hey Arnold didnt need a creepypasta to be sad. That show hit some real deep stuff on its own.
Gianttesticlemonster
Pigeon man always and still does make me cry

This show season 4 and onward pisses me off. It's really screwed up in the messages it seems to be trying to send.
PantsGuy
Good use of a reaction from it, though. +1
Nahxela
It turned your world upside down face

Thank you. MVP

As someone who has watched the show from the day of launch to the bitter end. MIND. FUCKING. BLOWN.

usersubbordercontrol
Wait did nobody realize that?... I connected on different eds as I grew up, and knew based on how my parents treated me and other families
BurntMomWarfare
Ditto
usersubbordercontrol
Treating their kids being different. Divorced family lead to one family being like DD, the other like Ed.. luckily Eddy didn't start until
usersubbordercontrol
Late highschool, by then I was out.
TeraGX
I thought this was a fundamental part of the setting, it gives motive to always getting in trouble instead of "normal" play.
skelitor120
I just realized I am Ed. My sister is only 2 years younger than me, we're both legally adults, but my sister cant drive and hasnt had a--
skelitor120
--job because our parents do /everything/ for her whilst ive been working since 18 and have to pay for everything myself from our basement.
Steelcityboyinblue
Or, you have way too much free time to overthink Ed,Edd, and Eddy and it's a cartoon about three dysfunctional and silly kids?
Mcshmile
Well the guy that made it said he based all the characters off of the kids he knew when he was younger.
Wolvenlight
To be fair, while sometimes the curtains are just blue, sometimes there is something deeper there. All depends on the creators.
ScottslandYard
Also Ed's parents literally took away his stairs when he was grounded..
ediblepain
Ed, edd and edgy.
LittleKing32
i am sad fish nao
thegreatninjaman
i like this theory much more then the purgatory theory.
samsonguy920
I still think the sparse appearances of the parents are merely vivid fantasies by the kids and they were all abandoned in that cul-de-sac.
Protomanlives
Aw man, i was an Ed
SpankMeDad
d3jake
Series...FInale?!
Wolvenlight
AKA the movie. (Granted I can't remember if it was made and set before or after the season/s they were at the school).
evenpoopistaken
"Oh whatever! My parents did all of this and I wasn't-" then I remembered I was abused as a child
Puttzy
Uh i took eds messy room as a teenage boy thing, chores... normal for growing up as me and brother torment... called brothers.
Nomtombouts
This. These tumblr "revelations" are ridiculous
PimpMyDadForKarma
What about when ed's parents locked him in the basement and took out the stairs?
Puttzy
He was grounded
PimpMyDadForKarma
Grounded and locked in the basement without stairs are two completely different things.
Tyfu
He had a widow! But yeah funny episode
Puttzy
He was beneath ground without the ability to ascend. As grounded as grounded gets
PimpMyDadForKarma
Nomtombouts
It's a tv show...
PimpMyDadForKarma
That's not the point of this post
BEEZEBEORA
Wait the first one.. im conffused that legit looks like a normal teen boys room? A TV, poster/signs, toys, hell he even has a loveseat...
Tikityler
Water pooling on his bed and floor. Only a blanket no sheets. Its mostly normal but lacks a few things a room should have.
Habreon
to be fair, most boys also don't have a bathtub full of gravy either
CoffeeTrampTossBitch
Yeah, my thought too... It looks like my son's room. I studied this picture for a long time
BEEZEBEORA
Plus, its very popular for teens to want to live in the attic/basement in houses. especially as they grow older and want more privacy...
BEEZEBEORA
Not every show has DEEP DARK MEANINGS. Sometimes a kid show is just a kid show.
Syrmerlin
To be fair to the other kids, Eddy's sole source of joy is trying to scam them. I wouldn't want to hang around with him either.
undeadhobo
idk, most of his 'scams' were pretty entertaining or even legit things. they mostly just backfired more of the time
CmfMttnPpl
Maybe he's really poor, I knew a kid who would spange at school for lunch money
TheCrustyCrabPizza
The guy can't afford a goddamn jawbreaker, I think that speaks for itself
chopper35
eddy, no. ed, no again. double dee, how ever, yeah, i might hang out with him. he’s a bit uptight, but he seems cool.
Juewels
Because he associates success with the belittlement of others, ala his big brother.
Hobbes777
Boom
floxsyu
pretty sure he always bragged about his brother too. just makes it even better.
TrustMeImABassist
Alas! Poor Edward! I knew him, Johnny; a fellow of infinite scams, of most excellent fancy
Thankyouforthis
Shut up and take my upvote, you beautiful bastard.
ShouldersDeepInAHorse
I used to sit on his lap and he would scam me for quarters...well...where are your quarters now?
Syrmerlin
Theboyacrosstheway
Can you share the sauce?
Syrmerlin
He's parodying the "Alas, poor Yorick," lines from Hamlet.
KyleGarrett
Yeah, and most the other kids seem to actually like Edd, and just find Eds stupidity annoying. Eddys the only hated one.
Wolvenlight
One of my favorite parts of the show was when Edd walked by Kevin fixing his bike & Kevin had a legitimately pleasant conversation with him.
Wolvenlight
Showed the show wasn't just all about simple situations/characters like "Kevin's always jerk to our protagonists!"
schmonday
I Googled "edd and kevin" to see a clip of it. I regret that search so, so much.
SkeletonsLoveBooty
That took me a minute. I'm so so sorry.
ChatonDeLaNuit
WHY DIDN'T I HEED YOUR WARNING?
CometLaHal
rule 34. everyone forgets
scnottaken
His parents probably don't give him an allowance.
TheFirstFurst
I don't get an allowance, but I am slimy in that I have accumulated a couple hundred dollars of spending money without a real job. In my
TheFirstFurst
view, you either give somebody a way to make money or they will find ways to get money themselves.
OneBigLoser
Did most parents? I sure as hell didn't get an allowance.
Pryotra
Or his brother always took it.
Tiier
Not once did I get one. It was either get a summer job or have no money. Good times.
diamondrottie
My parents never gave me an allowance, is that a normal thing now?
SwagicalYololord
I knew a kid who bought a $60k BMW at 15 with "his own money". Sure the money your rich parents gave you every month of your life. His >
SwagicalYololord
> older sister got one too at the same age with "her own money" as well. Kids thought they bought those cars with their hard earned cash lol
ZoeyDate
My mom pays my son for mowing and taking out the trash. I pay for drum lessons and school stuff but his spending money is earned.
ZoeyDate
My 8yr old even earns cash doing chores. 25cents per task like feed the cat, water plants, replace TP roll etc.
kibateo
If your parents provided you your own breakfast/lunch then sure you probably don't need an allowance.
SpeakerForTheUnLiving
Mate feeding your children is not the same as giving them an allowance. At all.
kibateo
I'm just speaking from my experience when I was younger, like my parents provided allowance so I could buy food from the cafeteria. 1/2
NatsukiIsMyWaifu
Yeah, my parents wouldn't let me spent money on stuff like that aside from candy. They got what I needed and I got what I wanted.
LurkingTrout
Yeah same, except one time my dad did give me 20 bucks to mow the lawn, then later he took it back because I wasn't spending it
nemtsol
So, your dad was against saving money?
LurkingTrout
guess so, found my lock box was broken open, asked around my dad said he did it to get to my money. I had more than 20 bucks. sucks I was 11
CorneliusCornwall
In most of these theories there's some major plot hole or it requires mental gymnastics to justify but this one is pretty solid.
iliketosaysomethingandthenjustbanana
To be honest. Ed's room has a television AND vcr, sarah's doesn't. So not really following it here either.
GylfieTheOwl
Yeah, isn't there another about this show that says all the kids are dead and this is actually purgatory?
CorneliusCornwall
Yeah. Theories like that (creepy for the sake of creepy) are more ridiculous than anything
seattlebust
Most of these are just depressed tumblr people trying to apply their own depression and logic to cartoons to feel better about themselves.
xRAINxOFxBLOODx
Yeah, a lot of the times theories like these, rather than filling in gaps or explaining something that doesn't make sense, are just (cont)
xRAINxOFxBLOODx
impossible to prove, self-explaining theories for the sake of being creepy, like the Rugrats 'Angelica is crazy' one.

blechinger
Life is random. Random isn't fair. Neglect and favoritism are choices. Choosing to neglect a child IS child abuse.
romicra88
You clearly haven't been in any of the Eds' shoes
biggwhytey
You haven't lived in a small Midwestern town. Even the things I've seen don't compare to what I have heard and been able to extrapolate...
LurkingTrout
Nah, there's unfair and then there's abuse
SluntBiggums
My dad used tell me this right before he started beating me with a pair of jumper cables.
SatoriEnlightenment
Got deleted. What did it say?
SluntBiggums
That there's a difference between life being unfair and abuse.
SatoriEnlightenment
Noted.
Skulties1
I deleted the comment. Sorry
SluntBiggums
Cause it was unpopular? Or did you change your mind?
Skulties1
Cause it pissed ppl off and it wasn't important enough to me to argue about. They can be sensitive if they want
asdfertjryjre
Ed's room is not that messy. Has the person writing this ever even been a child?
Icommentandpostmypets
In one episode he was growing mushrooms in his bathroom. Large ones.
asdfertjryjre
Gotta make money somehow.
Rapiecage
he's sleeping on a literal puddle
asdfertjryjre
So you've never pissed the bed?
Rapiecage
it's not yellow, though. And it's also on the sheets, and on the pillow. Looks more like a sizeable leak, over him
asdfertjryjre
Well hydrated and a powerful stream.
Wolvenlight
My first question is, which episode is that? Because that'll answer my second question.
