** ''Brainbent'''s Bro Strider is an [[ParentalAbuse abusive]], [[ParentalNeglect neglectful]] caregiver, mostly leaving Dave to fend for himself in an apartment full of weapons and sexual puppets but no food. This and the psychological trauma it causes Dave turn out to be almost entirely accurate. In early ''Homestuck'' acts things like the Striders' fridge being [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=002495 full of swords]] are played for laughs; much later, Dave [[http://mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=009649 admits]] that he had to learn from movies that fridges are supposed to be used for food, and outright says that he's convinced that Bro must have absolutely hated him and viewed raising a child as a fucked-up game.
