hi guyssss thanks for watching the video and I hope you enjoyed it! there’s another creator (Nicole Rafiee) who made a video about this topic before me and it was brought to my attention that we bring up a lot of the exact same talking points. this was absolutely not intentional and I never saw her video, but i watched it and she brings up some interesting points that i don’t mention and she did a good job covering the topic! so I just wanna link it since she did it before me lol & it’s interesting, go watch hers too!

How do you get hotter every video. Please from a makeup tutorial
That is so cool of you. You're a good dude bro 👍
@@unknownstan4864bruh 💀
LOL i saw her video too lol and the similarities made me giggle shes super cool tho! love both of uuuuu
omg emily you’re too kind. your video is definitely so much different from mine, and you have amazing skits. our brains are just so big and powerful and think alike
when i was younger, main character moments were always listening to music and wistfully looking out the car window. when the hell did it become acting like public spaces are tiktok sets?
Unlimited and unchecked access to social media
i know rightt i still do that. what has the world come to
we live in a society ☝️
And giving concerts and receiving Oscars in front of the bathroom mirror with a shampoo bottle as mic😭🤌

I think being the main character SHOULD be about romanticising your life and your experiences. NOT thinking the world revolves around you.
Exactly, that's what I like to do to make my life more exciting and interesting for myself. I don't think the world revolves around me, but I love romanticising my life. It helps me enjoy the simple pleasures of life.
Because the first option is taking care of yourself and your mental health but the second one is just narcissism
Confusing main character and mary sue is a common occurance amongst the less self aware individual.
Oh absolutely. We are the main character in our own life...just not in everyone else's.
THIS
you can be the main character in your own life, just dont make yourself the main character in others lifes
I like this
This needs more likes
Yeah! It's better to think of yourself as a main character in your OWN life as it can truly help you think less about what other people think but considering that you should be a part of everything on internet to the point the contrary makes you go "I don't like__ therefore it's wrong" is actually insane like I wish to be as delulu as them fr
nah bro... with that attidute your not better than anyone@ville__
thats honestly too far@ville__
My dad died 10 years ago. I has the “ at least you have a dad” kind of gal for a bit. 10 years later I love seeing people have healthy relationships with their parents. Super cringe to throw the dead parent card around IMO.
Love to see the self improvement! Good for you!
Happy to see you're happier ❤ yeah, people should let people celebrate their happinesses instead of depressing the world further than it already is.
Happy for ya
I’ve had a friend who would say that as a joke, it was funny (her dad died when she was 5). I would say back “at least your dad didn’t want to leave you.” (Dad left the fam when I was 2)
It was hilarious. People would look at us like we were v weird. Which was even funnier.
For real
The responses to the lady tweeting about her happy marriage seems to indicate one should NEVER be grateful EVER. don’t you DARE acknowledge your happiness and gratitude for the life you live!
It's this obsession with "cringe". You can't be unironically happy.
How DARE YOU be HAPPY?! I'M SAD! WHAT ABOUT ME?!?!?!?!?!? it's the most pathetic shit ever omg. like all the people who are personally offended when they see a couple either online or irl because they're single. "The World Doesn't Revolve Around You" is a lesson we all learned in preschool, and tbh a lot of folks could use a refresher on that lmao.
Dude right? I couldn't believe the dumb shit that was being said to them about that tweet.
This 100%! Gratitude and being thankful for what you have is one of the highest vibrational emotions. Miserable people want to ruin that.
so true, how sad do you have to be to comment such meaningless comments? i feel bad for these people lmao
the trend of filming people in public and posting it on line genuinely scares me so much
When a new trend comes out and nobody cares about the negative consequences… 🤷♂️

When I was 14/15 and in school people used to take pictures and videos of me to take the piss out of me (I wanted to be a musician and they would literally fucking crowd around me and act like paparazzi I guess) and would bully me in the process and I'm like extra scared of this. If I saw myself in a tiktok while I'm just going about my business I would actually cry and get really paranoid because of my past experiences. It's so selfish and such an asshole thing to do.
@@johnserosanguineous1886 no way is this real?
Same now i cant say my social anxiety thoughts are irrational anymore😭
@ville__Imagine being a bot lmao
I know a person who has this main character syndrome. One time I said “no” to them and they claimed it was passive aggressiveness 💀
Thats when you go "Passive? No this is active aggression. Shut up."
Oh, what a goofy person! 🤪🫣
once i corrected my friend's grammar and she goes "you're a classist". we can't confront no one anymore, everyone feels so offended
@@nohatsonthebedone time in the comment section, i expressed smth like caviar is expensive. Someone called me "non relevant" so I corrected their grammar. oh my Godddd the comments saying I was being a meanie good lord 💀 there were people defending too but the fact that it became such an issue is astounding to me
It's not even passive 😭
5:16 As a former barista, I can confirm that this is not an uncommon occurrence... I was spit on once because we didn't have individual creamers because she needed a specific amount of cream that could only be measured by those little creamer cups you get at the gas station or else she would have a dairy reaction and shit herself. After I gave her a sample cup of half and half, she looked at me and said, "What? Am I supposed to do this myself?!" and I told her that if she needed a specific amount then she can pour in as much as she likes and I would dispose of the rest she didn't use. Then she spit at me. After my manager came out to tell her to get out -- she started crying and said that her dog died that morning and how I should be punished for being so rude to her while she was grieving! The entitlement these people exude is crazy.
Damn, I'm actually glad that your manager took your side but also I feel bad for what happened to you. She was the one being rude and bad events in life should not be an excuse to treat people like that.
wait did she actually shit herself?
@@nninggsaee No... but karma is real and I'm sure she'll have her moment✨
why she gotta bring her dog into it as if that justifies her spitting on a person
Spitting on someone is assault/battery; you should've had the police come. Even if you didn't press charges, at least you could've given her a reason to think twice for next time.
What we say: "You're the protagonist of your own life. Stop living for the others!"
What they hear: "You're the main human being of the whole world. The others live for you!"
Underrated comment
These might be helpful sentences to hear for codependents/ people pleasers but those on the narcissistic spectrum it's just more fuel or justification for their bad behaviour.
It's all a matter of how one will interprete it.
@@julia1j1j1 it’s one and the same interpretation, I’m usually the perpetrator of the topic of this video, but I am aware I do it, at least in hindsight. I am a narcissist, but for morality sake, I control it so it doesn’t affect others too negatively.
😂😂😂😂😂u described it perfectly

Same crap, it's just narcissism disorder but gen z are calling it a fancy name for teenage girls
@@miilodude_8529it’s not narcissism
the "i don't like coffee" skit is supposed to be a joke but gets funnier knowing working any cafe or food service job means youve 100% had that exact interaction happen to you word for word 😭
exactly it’s funny until you realize it’s the truth 😭😭
I'm not even kidding, i work at mcdonald's and had someone just last week get upset with me for having burgers and fries on the menu because she wanted to "have something healthier" for lunch. on the same road there is a whole foods, a big-ass asian supermarket and at least three other restaurants in the surrounding plaza 💀
Just finished a lunch shift, I had to deal with a woman who comes in every week saying she has deathly allergies and knows which 2 meals she can have off the menu, but will still try and ask about other options and suggestions and when I make a suggestion she’ll complain she can’t have it. Like, you know what you’ll be having because you have it every week, why are you wasting the time of me and your friends who are lining up behind you??
Alrighty, rant over
starbucks barista here-i couldn't even laugh as much as i wanted to, at least 20 interactions flashed through my mind immediately 😭
i used to work at a fish and chip shop and i had multiple interactions of customers telling me they dont like fish. WE SERVE ONLY FISH AND CHIPS BRO.
The fact that this “what about me’ism” is so common that I don’t even recognise it half the time is actually kind of scary..
It's a scary disease
Yeah she says the majority of people aren't like that in real life but they really, really are, just not to that absurd extreme. And it feeds on itself because the more everyone is "what about me" to everything the more everyone else feels unheard and unseen and will push even harder to center themselves
A woman made a tiktok showing her beautiful bathroom and bathtub. And some people were really like “it’s beautiful but it’s not disabled-friendly, I wouldn’t be able to get in”, as if it was a *public bathroom* 💀
People really said that?? Omg 🤦🏽♀️ that’s ridiculous. If she’s not disabled or living with disabled people , why would she need a disability friendly bathroom? These people have zero common sense
I've seen a short of a woman painting her house in colorful options while saying something like "why as adults we forget to bring some colors to our lives ?" And the comments were insane. "Well, at least you have a house so clearly you're rich and can do that !! There are people who can't even live in a house !!! How dare you tell people that decorating their house with colors can bring them joy!!!"
Why are people so dumb? 😂
Lmfaooo 😂😂😂 wtf is happening 😅
One woman recorded the tik-tok of her bathroom renovation, and MANY people found it normal to demand that she delete these videos because they were annoyed to see her unsuccessful attempts to make repairs on her own. They tried to manage the process of repairing HER bathroom, tried to get her to call a professional, and generally considered it normal to write her angry comments because she didn't do a good job (I remind you, on repairing HER bathroom, the video of which she posted in HER tik-tok account)
I think the "theyre just getting what they deserve for being mean" is the stupidest argument ever because whats meaner? looking at someone or DOXXING THEM AND THREATENING THEIR FAMILY? like how in any world is that a fair punishment?
Fr like worse case yet their platform should go down in followers/likes not have their loved ones (who had nothing to do with anything) become unsafe
Plus, someone being annoyed (or just rolling their eyes) at someone filming themselves is not even being mean. They're allowed to feel annoyed. Especially if they're being filmed in a restaurant, which is actually not a public space, despite what a lot of people seem to think.
I also don't think people with main character syndrome understand how embarrassing it is to be near someone with main character syndrome. Like, you're just going about your day, trying to get by, and someone starts acting SUPER weird right next to you, and now you either have to sit through it, not knowing how to react, or you somehow have to get past them. Also, in a lot of public spaces, like underground stations, restaurants, etc, there's no room to get past behind the camera, because they're taking up the entire space. This is also true for beauty spots, where all the insta models will fill the one good space from the moment the sun starts to rise to the minute it sets. Like, the world doesn't revolve around you, and sometimes you're just being a narcissist
I agree 100%. Sure, people who think they’re the center of attention all the time are annoying but they shouldn’t be doxxed for that.
@@edwardwestmoreland-caunter6128what does this have to do with them getting doxxed though?
Fun fact: in brazilian Twitter, a girl posted a picture of ice cream that her dad had brought her to made her happy. The Ice Cream was kind of fancy. Then people proceed to problematized both her having a loving father while fathers leaving their children is a big problem in the country and the fact that she was taking expensive Ice Cream while so many people are poor. Yeah I'm serious. That's happened
Oh shi- I remember that
That's the saddest thing I've ever fucking heard
I thought brazillians were chill
@bruhvibes5941 Twitter brings out the worse in people, no matter the country I guess. But yeah, depending on the region of Brazil, we're pretty chill and welcoming
@@bruhvibes5941 It's the way of online culture. I find the second anonymity is able to be in place people do not care about any values of kindness for whatever bullshit virtual signaling and ability to push negative emotion onto others because they can. Because it makes them feel better. Don't take social media and online culture to be representative of how many act in real life but hold in mind the double face many do hold the second there is a lack of accountability sns gives.
“Did you consider the fact I have paper skin and glass bones and wake up every morning in agony that the devil himself pity’s me”

Best replies to these must be "Do you consider the fact that I don't give a flying f*ck" 😂
Spongebob reference!
it's genuinely one of my worst fears that i will be filmed in public without my knowlege.
Pro tip: if you wear a face mask which covers your mouth and nose, you will be difficult to identify in public.
as a street photographer, that makes me really uncomfortable when i have people's faces in my shot.
Well boohoo. You must know that taking photos as a street fotographer is different than people on tiktok filming random people to make fun of them @@yoshi314
Well, it's perfectly legal to do so. I have the same dislike, so if I spot a camera I usually look away from it, switch positions, or cross the street. Interrupting it can lead to complaints, and LE will do nothing due to.first amendment rights
@@gabrote42very illegal in some parts of the world
being the main character should be like, dressing cute and doing things you enjoy, not pretending you're the only person to exist 😭 like even as someone who struggles with empathy i cannot understand that
ong bro i'm like very much not good with empathy but other people deserve to be happy and live their life too ?? 😵💫
I have low empathy but like?? everyone else is also their own main characters besties everyone has their own lives
I love being a main character in the sense of dressing cute and make myself tea while watching the rain fall :D

Imagine sending death threats to a complete stranger you've seen once online because she made face expression you didn't like?!?!?? Is this for real
Oh, it doesn't need to be online only. A few month ago I was sitting in the bus and had a really, really bad day. So I had to have a kinda sad/serious face. A random woman sitting opposite of me called me out for "crushing her mood" and if I would "kindly put on a smile" so she could keep her good mood. I mean, wtf? Just look the other way??
ok so i think the video she was referencing was this one: ua-cam.com/users/shortsHaLjEU0m8_0?si=tUzHATrdfr-CYT5v
and i personally think its more than them just making weird faces while she was recording. they were for sure targeting her and bullying her for a cheap laugh from their friends and overall being very immature and rude for no reason. i do think what happened to them is a bit too much but at the same time i find that it is largely deserved considering their "apology" was super unapologetic and just saying that photobombing isn't bullying
@blackharmonics4518 oh my god??? I am so sorry for you
@@blackharmonics4518better than crushing her skull for being a cunt. But that's just me.
@@A_Loyalist thanks. Luckily this hag ended up leaving the bus soon enough. I just ignored her.
Aound Thanksgiving, I stated that i missed my mom. she passed a year ago this past month. This person said, "At least you had a mom." I was so astonished that I didn't know what to say. We are in a self-centered society. I cannot believe it anymore.
I know you've probably heard this from many others but I'm sorry for your loss. :(
@@xbreezee thank you
I'm so sorry for your loss❤
Im sorry for loss. Hope you are fine ❤
@Hyperlaser_Merc thank you. I appreciate it. I was just astonished by the audacity of that person. I'm going to counseling now and living with my Grief day by day.
i think it's even weird to post strangers with them as the focal point even if there's no malicious intent. even if ur like "omgg this person's so cute" it's still weird to post this person's face/identity if u didn't ask them beforehand
Once I saw a dude who had a whole trolley full of lettuces and I wanted to take a picture so I just took a picture of the trolley, it's so weird when people use an actual person for humour or whatever without their consent tho
yeah its literally illegal or at least in some places to take photos or film people without permission why are people forgetting this
my friend once saw someone in a cool outfit when they were on the bus and sent it to us and it was fucking WILD... I know that it was positive, but they straight-up photographed someone without their consent and with their face in frame. As someone with anxiety (and autism+adhd which affects it), I would have a full-on panic attack if I knew someone photo'd me in public. Because I DON'T KNOW THE MEANING BEHIND IT. Are they going to post it? are they making fun of me? are they a creep that plans to jerk off to it later? There's no way to know and it's a huge invasion of privacy. Have some sense.
i HAATE when people are like "omg i have a crush on this guy do ya thing tiktok/twitter" LIKE HOW IS THAT NOT SEXUAL HARRASEMENT
Right, I probably got pictures taken of me before by strangers. Since i dress in a way that stands out, sadly this is bound to happen.
What makes me laugh about the “I wake up in chronic pain” tweet is that they mention an iced oat milk latte, and medication. Some other “main character” could easily jump in and say “b-b-but what about us without healthcare?” And “must be nice to afford oat milk lattes”. The cycle just never ends.
Everyone is "privileged" these days... over the smallest things
Thats hilarious
At least they're able to join in an online conversation. I'll have to verbally fill in some people on this, but once they're in on it they can go to the community bulletin board and post "must be nice to be able to have access to an electronic device and internet access."
In response somebody else can post a picture of a happy stick figure reading a book, and a sad stick figure looking on. That would represent "must be nice to be able to read and write so you can participate in these conversations."
I wake up every morning bleeding from every pore in my body and drink room temperature water with instant coffee floating on the top you should do a privilege check
I think that’s the point. It’s the oppression Olympics.
My mom used to say "common sense isn't so common " never believed her until I worked my first job working with customers....It finally hit cause there were points when I stopped and looked at them cause I was shaken at how unhinged most people are
It took you that long to figure that out? Dang, feel bad for you lol
It's like your innocence was shattered, well that or ignorance, yep most people suck and/or dumb, it's a sad reality...
My mom says the same thing
rare sense
one of my coworkers doesnt know how to sweep.
It's cause I grew up in an area where people are well educated and have common sense and manners then moved to an area with cynical and ill-tempered people such as yourself and those that have no common sense.@@ethang.8238
Just hopping in here as a Brit (just in case nobody explained already) that "flogging" is also a British slang term to mean "selling" (usually illegally).
"Unless you're flogging something" sounded to me like "you're writing this beautiful story about your husband because you want to scam me into buying something"
Have a lovely day everyone! ☺️
Thanks, I was so confused about that one part :)
Thought it meant something like "fake vlogging" lol
Thanks 😂
@@kingofcrowzz Haha! No problem! ☺️
I'm American and I knew. Because the world revolves around me. 😁
The "what about me-ism" thing actually stresses me out so much on social media so it was so refreshing to hear it talked about. It's like no matter how thoughtful and considerate you try to be of everyone, there's always someone who ends up left out and they take it so personally. Like sorry I can't factor in the personal lives of 7 billion people, Brenda.
fr, it's ridiculous how many people just don't understand the concept of 'broad strokes get the fence painted faster'
It's especially annoying when someone is CLEARLY talking about a niche, specific group but someone who isn't in it still finds a way to get offended lmao
just stop worrying about it. nobody used to worry about accommodating every person/situation when speaking because people used to have this thing called 'nuance' and we should get back to that.
don't use social media, done deal
8 billion now
I hate that we are in an age where filming strangers is so normalized that we have to be aware and scared of that when going in public places. I am constantly scared of ending up in someone's TikTok video, whether that be intentionally or me being in the background very visibly.
if it’s intentional, u can’t really do anything except not go outside and notice it. that’s like saying u want to shop in a private mall because there are security cameras. also, nobody cares if you’re in the background of someone’s video, have u ever remembered any stranger in the background of someone’s video? no, bc that’s not the purpose of the video
@@mariniikk Yes and no, while I do agree with you there are also a big trend on tiktok of people filming the crowd's reaction to something they are doing (ie a guy dressed "weird" or a woman dressed "hot") and then they'll just zoom in on the faces. I saw a video of a gal dressed provocatively (not bad per se) but then framing men looking at her as sexual predators.... When, you know, they could just be wondering wtf this chick is doing outside with video equipment?
Lol don't be
You a victim
You actually can if you didn't give them express consent to film you it's stealing your likeness for profit
Main character syndrome is literally just narcissism without the common negative connotation
Pretty much yeah. Wish more people would call it out when they see it on social media or in real life.
It's much simpler than that, it's envy, pure and simple. People are thinking that everything is about mental problems and they forget about the illnesses of the soul, the sins.
@@firinnegile8164Envy isn't a "sin" (as in its not a problem if someone is envious) and even if someone is feeling envy so strongly that they act like the subjects of this video, then its STILL A MENTAL PROBLEM. Its psychological if the problem is part of brain function, and you can not possibly have the ability to act like anything at all without one. Even if some of the people who act this self centred don't have the actual genetic capability of having THE narcissistic personality disorder, that doesn't mean they don't have narcissistic tendencies.
@@jeffery9543 "even if someone is feeling envy so strongly that they act like the subjects of this video, then its STILL A MENTAL PROBLEM"
No ? A mental disorder is something you get diagnosed with. Narcissistic disorder is rare as fuck, and this kind of behavior isn't, so this isn't some kind of mental illness problem.
And even if the person has a mental disorder, sociopathy is also a mental disorder, so does that mean that a sociopath killing other people isn't a sin ?
Even if something is due to a mental disorder, that doesn't mean it isn't a sin, or that it should automatically be tolerated. Letting a kid with ADHD do whatever he wants in class is not gonna help him later in his life, precautions need to be taken but he still need to be taught how to behave correctly
Instagram is a breeding ground for main character syndrome and its incredibly annoying, which is why i Uninstalled Instagram yesterday permanently
as someone with chronic pain the amount of times chronic pain is brought up is SO FUNNY 😭😭😭 my pain is not stopping you from being happy you do you
Yes!!! Chronic fatigue gyal here. Like I wanna see people being happy and enjoying a little whimsicality😭
so true 🤣 chronically ill too, literally people just need to mind their business sometimes and let people live
"what if my kid has a peanut allergy?"
"...MaKe A DifErENt SaNDwhIcH!"
This genuinely made me laugh so hard. Common sense isn't so common anymore lol
Your alternating caps were used for the wrong person. They shouldve been used for the "main character"
I cannot imagine watching someone making seafood and commenting, "what about me, I'm allergic to seafood!" It should be embarrassing to act that way
I’m allergic to peanuts. My mom did this amazing thing where she made a ham and cheese sandwich . 😮
I took it more as “don’t you dare send that sandwich to school with your kid, we’re trying to cancel peanuts” and not “I was looking for sandwich advice in a place that clearly doesn’t pertain to me.
Did people really miss the mark that much on that statement?
@@tiffbeevachou108it’s sickening tbh
My favorite “main person syndrome” example is the tiktok where the lady has her starbucks name as “I’m single” and she starts yelling out loud that she’s single and literally no one reacts
I love that video but holy hell does it make me cringe 😭
That video makes me feel like I'm going to disintegrate at any moment while listening to it
HAHAHAHA FR
@@emmasullivan9871 it makes me cringe, laugh, cry for her sakes and everyone else’s sake having witnessed it
That’s so embarrassing. Why would anybody do something so awful? These people must be very rich and privileged.
as someone with diagnosed chronic pain syndrome, the people using it to put others' happiness down makes me wanna scream. like, oh they dont have to suffer like me? how dare they, what a terrible person, whom i have never met in my life. i cannot believe their treachery.
I think its especially hilarious and revolting at once when they'll shoot that at somebody posting about their good things and... that person themselves is like yes actually! I do in fact have a disability myself! Dont you think that makes you want to celebrate the good things? Cause like... that's 90% of those 'mundane happy' posts 😅 is someone cherishing the good things... 😂
agreed!! i have fibromyalgia and ill never understand why others with chronic pain disorders or chronic illnesses want to use it to put others down or hate on somebody who's just talking about something good that happened to them. yes it's hard to live with a chronic illness or a pain disorder but no you should not take that out on others who have done absolutely nothing to you and are just living their lives!
@@Auggie_Fr0ggie THIS yes u summed it up perfectly
Exactly. I hate people making suffering a competition. Likewise have chronic pain, and I’m grateful for the folks who don’t have to go through that hell.

Reminds me of that time at a queer event a friend of mine talked to some other trans guys about their topsurgery experiences and this random other trans person joined them to tell them that it was in very poor taste to talk about topsurgery while other trans people in this room didn't get one yet.
Like... Just dont eavesdrop on other people?

this reminds me of a woman who made her Uber driver wait because she wanted to do a "main character walk" and waited till no one was in the room. Even the woman who works at the desk was laughing at her
ikr but atleast that was staged ig
Oh don't worry...she's a troll, like Hailey (if you know about her). I think she just blew up a bit negatively because people started making videos/analyzing about her without really understanding the sarcasm.
@@thelonelywriter27I've seen that she's a troll but I feel like unless everyone in her videos is in on it, then she's just as bad as the people who genuinely act that way, because at the end of the day she'd still be inconveniencing everyone in the same way. Like I saw a video of her harassing a waiter, so I hope that person was aware and not getting their day made worse for clout
@@Aliasfakename123 I've heard that the waiter was actually her friend, though I could be wrong
“ even if the woman who worked at the hotel is laughing at her”?An employee? They don’t even matter.! she has an image to maintain-for her viewers and followers! Because they care a lot-how can she walk if someone else is in the frame?! That just doesn’t make any sense ! SHE’S the star! obviously anyone who has a problem is obviously jealous and they’re haters and I feel sorry for them, but clearly they’re obsessed anyway so, that’s just more views and clout for her.! eat your heart out, comment with your sob story, sorry, not sorry!(-delusional TikTok girl)
“Your partner is most likely embarrassed by the tweet, or at least should be.” is my new favorite sentence. imagine walking up to your wife and being like “This tweet you made about loving me is quite boastful, I must ask that you delete it.”

I feel like people who were told "saying someone can't be miserable because someone else has it worse is like saying you can't be happy because someone else has it better" learned the entirely wrong lesson from it.
Your comment reminded me that a few religious institutions I'd been to as a child would teach kids they have no right to complain about their misfortune because others have it worse. Wonder how many people were taught the wrong thing to begin with.
@@lulzvg Lemme guess, catholic?
@@Takeshi357 Sometimes baptist as well.
@@lulzvg All religions teach that to some degree. The purpose of saying "Some have it worse" isn't supposed to make you feel better about the situation, but supposed to empower you to to start looking for a solution. "Gee, this isn't as bad as I thought. That means, there might actually be a solution out there." And sometimes, in the case of grieving or loss, that solution just might be time and giving yourself permission to be sad.
@@TheRisky9 I think that is very different from being explicitly told you have no right to complain because others have it worse.
Maybe I was unclear before but I've seen this said word for word so many times. What you said is a better approach but still straddles the line of reasonable.
A struggle is a struggle regardless of scale.
I’m admittedly a bit of a weirdo and shamelessly wear cute outfits in public. Because of how normalized it is to film strangers, I’m really really scared of getting filmed by someone else. So now I feel the need to wear a mask in public so no one can identify me if that happens. It really sucks.
But if you think about it 🥹🥹🥹 I think as long as you are a respectful person and just doing your own thing, people would call out the poster for being a weirdo for filming you when you’re just being you. AND i’m sure many people want to dress like you but lack the confidence or have too much anxiety to do it 🥹 so seeing you might even inspire others to dress how they want to. I GET IT THOUGH, I’m afraid of being filmed as well.
@@weebly_ No, I wear weird alt kid fashion. How did you even come to that conclusion?
@@skateywatey It's still dystopian that you have 0 control over it and are at the mercy of random people online and that every single move you make could be ridiculed if someone has a slightly off day
My favorite example of this is when a pregnant woman posted how she doesn’t care if she has a boy or a girl, she just is really glad that so far her pregnancy and the baby are healthy.
And a bunch of people commented how ablest she is for being HAPPY THAT HER BABY IS HEALTHY?!? What?!?
There was also another one I saw where a woman made a video just opening up about how sad it was, as a mom to a premie, to have to leave the baby at the hospital and not take her home right away… and people in the comments were telling her she wasn’t allowed to be sad because she didn’t have a still birth or a miscarriage. Like wtf?!?
That's probably because "healthy" is used as a euphemism for "not disabled"
At this point, it's better not to post anything online at all, or at least restrict social media to family and friends only, because there's always going to be some weirdo online that has something to say about everything.

@@emmasullivan9871 really whatd she say? Also the pancake woman was wack af. I'd give her the stink eye lol

People at my high school started Instagram accounts where they took pictures of other students sleeping, eating, poked fun at their clothes, took pictures of their feet,etc. I was already uncomfortable and self conscious eating at school, so I didn’t mostly(which cause an ed), so obviously that did not help.
You could probably bring it up to the school as them cyber bullying, for what that's worth.

This reminded me of my wedding actually 😂
Got married last month, in a public park. We chose to get married on a weekday, during school hours. Somehow, there was a HUGE group of LARPing teenagers running around (I still have no idea what that was about), so we changed our plan for which shelter we would set up at, to go to the quietest part of the park. We only had a group of about 10 people, so it was no big deal.
During the wedding itself, while I was trying to read my vows, (arguably the most Main Character Moment of some people's lives) a child ran by. She stopped for half a second when she saw us, but she was in a hurry to grab some flag markers the aforementioned LARPing group had left in a tree stump.... directly behind us, in view of the camera. She was also too short to reach all of them, so after a few seconds she started hitting the tree stump with a stick. Loudly.
And you know what?
That shit was hilarious. We chose to get married in public, knowing full well that somebody would probably walk by, possibly even ask for cake. If you're not willing to accept that other people exist in public, don't film yourself in public spaces. Do it at home.
That actually cute ngl, i mean u cant blame kids doing smt when its in public
@undertale_roblox8867 exactly! Besides, it gave me and my husband something to laugh about when we look back at the day. Silly absurd moments really make things more memorable in the long run, I think!

There was a video of a woman teaching stay-at-home moms, how to stay afloat financially if your partner who’s the breadwinner passes away or if you both divorce, and there was an angry comment basically mocking them and bragging about her rich husband saying he would never divorce her and that his life insurance would protect her and her kids if he ever dies.

Honestly I believe posting anyone's face online without their consent should be banned. I don't care if the person is in the background, if their face is visible, it's potentially dangerous for them and you shouldn't be allowed to put someone in danger or maybe even ruin their life for your main character moment.
It should be illegal.
Depends on if it’s a public place or not. If it is then it’s wildly different than If say you in a more private area. That’s literally the only difference.
AGREED
@@ThatOneFur It doesn't matter imo, you do realize people have gotten doxed because of this?
@@user-th1pv6ks5o I think it matters, especially if you consider livestreams or live correspondent journalists, tourist attractions. I think as long as you're not intentionally filming a passerby is fine, the person is able to choose not to pass in front of the camera. That's only for public places, though, 100% private spaces you should ask everyone in frame for their consent.
Finally someone brought this up. I swear the comment sections on any social media have become plagued with people who DON'T WANT to contextualize or put themselves in other people's shoes. They're always crying me-me-me. Not even the most bland post is safe from futile criticism now. This egotism has become so tiring that the only way out is actually abandoning social media. Once it was a space to express themselves without worrying about clout but now it has simply transformed into a place to vomit anger and make fun of people.
this is especially worrying for autistic people whose body language often doesn't match their thoughts and might suffer from meltdowns in public spaces. stop assuming everything is about you and just give us our space!
Couldn't have said it better 👏🏾

Especially because all of these “slights” weren’t even directed at the subjects of the video!! It was _at the camera._ They were probably annoyed they were being filmed.
This reminds me of the poor girl who was accused of being racist when she was touched by a stranger and started crying. Then her sister made a video explaining that she was autistic & also had contamination OCD. but it’s like that explanation shouldn’t have ever been needed… it’s so frustrating
exactly, i have ocd and i saw this guy on tiktok like going up to random people and asking for a high five and filming them, he asked a girl and she got really uncomfortable and started crying, he proceeded to post it on the internet and take the mick out of her and everyone in the comments was making fun of her until her sister had to tell everyone that the girl had severe contamination ocd and autism. annoyed me so much, if someone did that to me while filming me and then posted me crying on the internet because of something i literally can't help, i would be soooooo upset

It's not. It just that now the avaliability of means to register and share the instances of people being rude is enormous. And it's so appalling it spreads quickly.
That reminds me of a time i worked at panera and i would make a cup of coffee everyday for my shift. There was an older lady doing up her coffee and i patiently waited. She apologzed to me for that and i was so confused. I start doing my coffee and someone literally huffed and puffed that i was in the way and reached their arm around me to grab a sugar packet. I guess waiting 5 seconds or just a simple "excuse me, could I grab this quick" is too hard.
As an addition to that, I feel like I’ve noticed people, both online and irl, using therapy speak as a way to justify not being considerate or polite (not emotional abuse or like a Jonah Hill situation, just in very small everyday things). Like something about “self-care” or “setting boundaries” or whatever to be self-absorbed or inconsiderate. Ofc there’s always been rude people, but now I feel like some use mental health buzzwords as an excuse for this behavior. Which is obviously not good for the perception of mental health and taking care of one’s mental health. Idk I’m just tired man.
Right after I had a baby, I was sitting in the waiting room of the doctor waiting for an exam. I’d been torn and stitched back together and was sitting on an inflatable medical donut because my butt was too sore to sit on. I was also more exhausted than I’d ever been in my entire life and I had my baby with me so I had to attend to him and not my own pain and tiredness, even while just in a waiting room. A little girl walked in crying. I listened and learned she was afraid of getting a shot. And in that moment I understood that true empathy is being able to understand how scary that shot is to a girl who’s never had one and has no idea that childbirth and stitches in your hoo-ha are even a thing. And growing up is deciding to show that kind of empathy intentionally. You don’t have to have children to learn this, but it’s definitely a means of learning.
I’m so sorry for your loss❤@@Taffy0.1
Does that mean I might not grow up? Because I currently cannot feel empathy this situation (yours, not the girl being afraid of getting a shot)
No. A part of growing up is gaining the experiences that can give you empathy and choosing to use them that way instead of becoming bitter. You have time. But it’s not a given. You do have choice in the matter. One day when you’re in pain beyond anything you’ve experienced before you’ll see someone with a small pain and have the choice of understanding and showing consideration or of telling them to shut up because they’ll never know how hard it is to be you. @@synsvids

"My sister pushed me"
I see why
being autistic, i often forget to put on expressions for others, especially when i’m minding my own buisness. the public filming phenomenon has absolutely made my existing agoraphobia worse. i’m already scared, i’m already struggling. Do I really want to deal with the potential humiliation of being filmed for something I have little control over? No, i don’t.
I'm also autistic , I've always been very scared of this as I have the same problem , it happened to me recently when some classmates filmed me outside of school 😭 honestly I'm just terrified of it and happy to find someone with the same issue
Same here. People took pictures of me at school lunch because I was by myself, alone at a table, since communication was too hard with people. They were a large group nobody wanted to mess with, they were laughing at me like I was the most funny thing of the year. It took me a decade before being comfortable sitting alone in public at lunch time.
But I still get nervous if I see people pulling up their phones. Sometimes they just put them in front of their face to take a selfie or to play a game, but the camera directly facing me at that moment is terrible for me.
I hope you both found the strength to be comfortable again in public. Wishing you well.
I'm so sorry you're struggling with this! I'm not sure how helpful this is, but: MOST people won't care. Be yourself and try to forget the people who do care for some reason, because that's their problem.

I almost got filmed by two high school girl just because I was waiting for the bus so I know your pain my friend, I can't even go outside without fearing that happening again!.
this is giving the same energy as when people called chris hemsworth tone-deaf for posting a cute picture of his daughter watching his movies during a flight.
why? cause 'regular people' can't afford more than economy or smth
Thank you for bringing this up. Not only main character energy, but also seeing other people as "NPCs" is really hyper individualistic too. So many people don't see any problems with the ignorance it creates.
It’s definitely part of the whole narcissistic mindset. “The world revolves around me” has been a thing forever. Social media makes it worse and likely more common :/
Ugh this! Thats such a good way to put it
It also has a distinctly fascist aspect to it. An "NPC" is very similar to the idea of the "Untermenschx or "sub-human". It clearly dehumanises the people referred to as NPCs.
Nah bro, nothing wrong calling people (out for being) NPCs.
It’s really just a synonym for people being sheeps/sheeple aka being under the spell of the lemming effect, totally oblivious to themselves and their inner world and mostly only do what they are told by soceity instead of questing why they do what they do and unconsiously nelect to try to truly live life accordingly to their own invidualistic feelings and needs or at least try be self aware/reflecting about them.
@@magnusr.poulsen2437 it's dehumansing and also a bit presumptuous telling people they're not deciding for themselves, being "sheeple", right? You don't know what's going on in their lives and minds and you're using a dehumanising slur to describe them because you are arrogantly convinced that you are living life correctly and they aren't. You do you and let others live their lives the way they see fit.
I was in a friend group where majority of the people had this mindset. It was really bad and it basically became a pity game of whose trauma is the worst. I'm a much happier person after leaving that friend group and realising how draining it was to be with them
The main issue with social media is the constant push to react. good or bad you must form an opinion about even things that don’t concern you. the greatest lesson i’ve learned recently is the third option. i don’t need to like. i don’t need to dislike. I can simply do nothing. take it in (or don’t) and move on
I have started applying this mindset recently and I already feel so much more peaceful
@@thatbitchnoemie that’s amazing to hear, i’m taking this energy into the new year and it’s protecting my peace, this year is already starting off better haha keep it up, right there with you 💪🏿🥂✨
you're so correct. I've been forced into this and it just hit me a lot.
So true. Seems people forget there's a very simple one click or gesture reaction they can take if they don't like what they're seeing.
Close the app/website.
Rage gone, problem gone, don't go to your history if it exists to revisit. It really doesn't matter that much.
you’re absolutely right. i succumb to reacting way too much on youtube lately /:

This comment and replies could be an excerpt from the video.
This whole concept of filming strangers in public is so foreign for me. Where I am from you have something called "the right to your own image". Theoretically everytime you take a picture and someone is in the background you have to ask for permission to publish the image. In most cases that will not happen. But if you find yourself in the background of a picture you can get it taken down. If it is your child that is even easier.
Ingenious, i wish the USA weren't run by fossils so we could get something like this.
Is it possible to blur the heads of folks you couldn't ask permission from or are you not allowed to post a photo at all without everyone's permission period?
Curious because I would imagine it's hard to ask someone who has walked away from the area, borderline dissappearing from where the shot was taken.
Also curious about commercial public photography and how that interacts with the law.
that's EU laws for you, and I am forever grateful
@@RRabbit_53 So I don't know if I am from the same country as the original poster, but where I am from you also have "the right to your own image". But you can post for example a picture with strangers on, as long as their faces are blurred or pixelated so the can't be recognized and remain anonymous. Also there is a special crowd rule (not entirely sure how exactly it works), which is something along the line that if they are part of a big crowd shot and as such basically indistinguishable, it is fine to publish the picture without consent
@@RRabbit_53 If it's impossible to recognise someone on the pic, yes
(Also, at least in Belgium, going to some events is likely to be considered "agreed to have images of you shared", but like. It's the kind of events you WILL see diffused whatever happens anyway XD)
I was walking through a museum with my friend last weekend and a couple was ushering people out of a room of paintings because the girlfriend wanted her pictures to not have people in the background. I just cut through the background and got the biggest glare imaginable. Like, girl, its a museum. You can't kick me out of something that I paid to experience and observe. It isn't your personal set
More people need to realize that nearly everyone else couldn't care less about them.
Unless they know you why would you expect random people to care about your life? Outside of your best friend or partner no one else cares about your private life.
If more people had cared about them they probably wouldn't be so insufferable. Sorry, I just have this thing about human cycles of abuse and neglect.
@@Silverfirefly1 not caring about random ass hats isn't neglect nor abuse.
@@nairobie755 That's not your job, but at some point they were failed by the people that actually were relevant.
@@Silverfirefly1 It would be nice if their friend group was there for them but for other people, they don’t know you or your life.
The ironic part about the “me me me” people constantly trashing other peoples happiness is that we all have issues. Like I’m sure even the lady with the perfect marriage or whatever has issues in her life, key difference is she’s not hyper fixating on the stuff that’s not great in life and airing it out to ruin everyone’s mood.
Everyone has sob stories we could unload on people daily for attention, hell I have plenty, but that’s not the way to handle that. Just be chill, mind ya damn business and let people enjoy things.
Main character mania is a just another zombie mantra created by mass media/corporations, always promoting selfishness, greed, narcissism and sheer stupidity for peasant masses.
People are not encouraged to be more intelligent, to be useful for society, to be supportive for each other, for their families and friends, for their city and country, for the entire humankind.... they are encouraged to be entitled clowns.
Agreed. You never know what other people are going through. I don't know anything about her but what if she went through a really bad relationship previously so she's now just grateful to have her perfect husband with her every day. Why do we need to bring her down ...
You're enjoying your day
Everything going your way
Then along comes Debbie Downer...
I'm just so tired of feeling "observed" all the damn time.
I'm not on social media for this exact reason, but now I'm worried that I'll end up on there as the "villain/victim of the day" without my knowledge.
I understand. It gets hard. I stopped posting on Facebook almost 10 years ago. I only post photos to my invisible albums. Need somewhere for my pics to go. Here on yt I love posting my bitching tho 😂The comments section can be pretty enlightening on some topics!
I can confirm as a person with chronic pain that most chronically ill people aren't like that. Anyways love ur vid! :D

Here in Norway everyone has the right to their own privacy, so it is illegal to post pictures or videos of other people without their consent. It can actually be punishable. You need to blur them if they haven’t given consent. By law, the people in the photo or video decides what happens to the photo or video, which also means they can ask you to delete it. If you blur them it’s ok though, as long as no one can recognize them. It’s a pretty good rule, tbh. It really isn’t an issue to just blur people out either. We have really good privacy laws here. Your freedom doesn’t give you the right to take away other people’s privacy, easy as that.
Same here in Germany 😅
Same here in Switzerland. But people need to both know and give a shit about these laws. Some years ago, I was on a bus and saw a person (male sex, probably) in a dress (cross-dressing? trans?) doing something that look like check whether bicycles in a long array of bicycles were locked or not. Maybe that person was looking for their own bicycle. I cannot possibly know.
The bus took maybe 20 seconds to drive past that person, which was all that was needed for some woman on the bus to see her, notify the man who was with her of that "peculiar sight", and for him to take his phone out of his trouser pocket and take a picture of that trans(?) person. It looked as if it were a reflex to him.
What was he taking a photo for? Definitely not to just have it on his phone and never show anyone.
Same in Korea. You gotta blur out or put a emoji or whatnot to cover the faces of people in videos and pictures shared online who don’t know theyre being filmed or dont consent
how do people use any photos of public areas in places with those kinds of laws? if a professional photographer takes a picture of a crowded public street, or a newspaper photographer takes a photo of the crowd reacting during a football game, or a parent takes a photo of their child on their first rollercoaster ride, there are going to be lots of people in the photo they can't go ask for consent because they can't stop and speak to them. do you really have to blur every single face if you don't have consent? doesn't that make it impossible to make photography art or document public events?
Same in Spain
The coffee thing reminds me of the time I was in a locker room with a bunch of other girls and I noticed an unusually large lump on my armpit and said “I should maybe get this checked out and make sure it’s not cancerous or something”.
A girl overheard me and told me that her grandma died of cancer and started lecturing me on “joking about cancer” about cancer.
Like, i just thought I was supposed to report strange lumps to my doctor wtf
did it turn out to be benign? hope ur ok
I think the issue is that people are taking everything personally all the time. Why is that? Why is everything suddenly so personal?
Was it cancer?
@@RRabbit_53 not only that, but assuming that it MUST be malicious.
Are you ok though?
That -I don’t like coffee- skit hit so hard 😂😂😂 I’m working in a SPECIALTY COFFEE roastery and café and we have seminars on the weekends. Seminars for brewing coffee and using espresso machines…. And for whatever reason people keep booking them and complaining that they don’t even drink coffee🤡

@@Nina-__ That went right over your head, didn't it? Let me explain, there's this joke going around on the internet that when one person compares two things, for example calling a person a clown, somebody replies with, "That's offensive to clowns.", or "Don't insult clowns like that.". Insinuating that this person is worse than what you're comparing them to or calling them.

I always look either miserable or disgusted so I'm actually scared of being in the background of someone's video haha
People think I'm rude already:/
The acting here is crazy!
"Like, isn't your mom dead? Go!"
The message is solid but the acting is superb 😂
one of my favorite examples was a street interviewer, who just so happened to be black(this is relevant), went behind someone, touched them, AND shoved a kid in their face. the person recoiled quickly and backed away looking almost scared. people were super quick to call them racist and hateful, but turns out they have autism. like, that person was just reacting, but people were so quick to be mean.
tbh i'd also be scared if a stranger pushed a child in my face
They didn't just have autism, they were also selectively mute and he was going around shoving microphones in people's faces. It's like having terrible stage fright and being shoved in front of an audience.
weren't they also deaf/hard of hearing? i think i remember someone saying that is the reason why the person didn't know whats going on but im not sure
Ye
The version of the story I heard was that they had contamination OCD, but either way it’s a really unfortunate situation
This reminds me of a girl that had her wisdom teeth removed and her father bought ice cream for her. She tweeted about how sweet her dad was and then people started attacking her saying that she was triggering people that didn't have a father lol

The part that people seem to forget is that of all the stories on the planet, you're only the main character in one of them. You're an NPC in literally all the rest, so don't get an inflated sense of self-importance. Try to be that NPC that everybody likes to have in their game and wants to keep around.
I’m an NPC in my own life what do I doooooooo 😂
I want to be the Papyrus of the world: optimistic, hard-working, ambitious, kind, forgiving, confident in myself, and unforgettable.
I also want to be the Sans of the world: caring, clever, protective, funny, mysterious, chill even in my worst moments, and unforgettable.
like kass in breath of the wild
Exactly. Everyone else is an NPC in my life, however I am an NPC in everyone else's lives. We are all the main characters of our own lives, but no one main character is THE main character of the world
The skit about coffee is spot on, the trauma dumping was PERFECT
another thing that doesn't sit too right w me is when a couple posts something cute and everyone's like "Well time to take a bath with a toaster" It doesn't bother me or anything it's just...idk let them be cute lol😭😭

HOW SOCIAL MEDIA WORKS:
Me: I prefer mangos over oranges.
Random Person: So basically, you're saying you hate oranges? You also failed to mention pineapples, bananas, and grapefruit. Educate yourself. I'm literally shaking.
I saw one with waffles saying like "twitter ni***s have zero reading comprehension you could say that you love pancakes and someone will say oh so you hate waffles? Like no bitch that's a whole ass different sentence"
I'm literally shakin and cryin rn, how can someone be this hurtful and fruitist?
I’m so surprised that someone could be so fruitist 🙄
How tone deaf can a person be? I am allergic to mangoes and cannot eat them, no matter how much I long for the juice of a sweet, comforting mango. This is insensitive because of my specific case, as you forgot to mention mango-free people. I actually enjoy my mangoes vicariously through other people, I don’t owe you proof of my fruit-enjoyment. Do they come in 7XL?
Strawman argument right there. Typical online main character moment.
