I love when they had the actual conversation about how language would change and evolve to say fewer words, whole time I was just like "guys. sign language"
Being stuck on the "five nights" part of "five nights at freddy's" is hilarious. as an outsider to the fandom I promise the "freddy's" part is much more complicated
If I had the lying power, I would hire myself out to people that think their SO is cheating on them. I would talk to the cheater and ask questions about their relationship. Every time they say they're not cheating or haven't before, I'd tell the other person the truth. Their SO's lies would be my payment, so it's a "free" service.
i feel freaked out that jordan came to the same assumption i did: jeff the killer fanfic. we've been on the intrnet too long brother, the grass might reject our touch
My brain likes to try to work out the saddest outcome possible. You have the lying power and after years of happy marriage suddenly you start getting $100 every time your husband tells you he loves you.
1:55 tbf I followed and read Homestuck up to its "end" back in its heyday and even I couldn't tell you what it's about. Kudos to Jordan's friend for even trying but it was a losing battle from the start lmao
Real I've read it start to finish 2 times (and reread it in random chunks countless times, I wanna say like 40 lol) and I understand it, but explaining it to someone ELSE is a whole different story
@ omg same! it took four years the first read, and only 2 weeks the second read, but I still couldn’t really explain it well. Sooooo many twists and turns and jumping through hoops/sky gates.😭😭😭😭😭

I would say the best word to describe why these are fun to watch is because they are campy, in the most positive meaning of the word. There is a sincerity within the work that makes it endearing despite it not being the highest quality work.
Ngl, a lot of these i have encountered are just variations of the soulmate AUs on ao3. Your soulmate can hear you, at whatever age you get this power, etc, etc. Its so funny to see it in more "mainstream" spaces. The only thing that bothers me is when people credit these types of AUs to these pov tiktokers when I have been seeing the same thing back on ffn in 2015.
17:30 I misunderstood and thought it was the amount of times SHE has seen her soulmate, and when she checked social media she might've seen a post from the person. I wonder if her soulmate was also just on social media and saw a picture of hers! Does that count as seeing them?
I actually did have to fight with my grandma to get curtains. She thought I'd get depressed without sunlight. I ended up using 2 pride flags as my curtains cuz she didn't wanna get me any 🙄
@ i gotta read it sometime I’m a huge undertale fan and i think it’s good to check out the media that influenced the creator Toby Fox so I can get an understanding of how it influenced creative decisions in undertale and deltarune
@@AngelaLovesSpamton2 oooh if you do, let me know cause I wanna know what u think :D. Also, u should download the unofficial archive because a lot of the interactive parts and games that are built in are broken because of Flash being gone now.
I'm glad these are getting some positive attention! The POV trend is an easy target for the cringe-police, and yeah theres some weird ones out there, but overall I just cant hate on people just being creative and having fun.
14:00 the shot of Jarvis in the corner, perfectly clear and then ominous blurry Jordan, who then snaps into focus as he says “if she messes up, she should be put to death” made me literally howl with laughter. Such absurd nonsense
Oh my god, the jazz music at the end of the video! Thank you for having relaxing music at the end, instead of the obnoxious loud alarm sounding noise at the end of most videos. I didn’t have to race to my phone to pause the video before the end this time.
It kind of feels like none of those kids really know what a "Soul Mate" is... like they write it like a soul mate is the person you are forced to marry, and sorry it's not that, lol.
Them talking about all the hypotheticals at like every possible angle is sending me back to all the vids Domics and his friends would make doing that, just seeing how far they could push hypotheticals 😆
7:13 do you have to talk to them in person? If a politician is addressing their audience on TV, and, for example, he makes claims about certain pets going missing in a certain town for certain reasons, and he does this A LOT- could you still make money, because you are one of many people being addressed by this broadcast? Does it need to be a fresh lie, or could you loop the same lie on tape a few hundred times a day?
There's a book that has a very similar concept to the word count thing - Vox by Christina Dalcher - and it's a really genuinely fantastic feminist sci-fi book. Highly recommend it!
the last one could actually be a crazy setup for a psychological horror about the soulmate cus of the unclear logistics and inconsistencies. the girl and her ex got their soulmate counter at the same time, right? but the other guy had already been watching her for MONTHS at that point. and the news report abt the killer says 'this just in'...... what if this was some older guy (assuming the soulmate counter is an age thing) waiting for just the right time to set jaden up and pretending after months of stalking he doesnt know that thats her ex she was in love with

The word count pov would turn into that scene from the office with Kevin. “Why say lot word when few word do trick?”
Except when you're worried about word count that's 9 words which is is less efficient than: "why be overly verbose?"

Right?
I love when they had the actual conversation about how language would change and evolve to say fewer words, whole time I was just like "guys. sign language"
that's still words tho, cuz it a genuine language
I would imagine that written language is the only communication that would avoid that rule
POV: You wasted all your words drawing pictures
@@InsecurArties the way I had interpreted it was that it was limiting specifically spoken word, but i guess the premise is up to interpretation
@@InsecurArties Sign language is a visual language, written word is also a visual language, why exactly would written word avoid the rule?

jarvis MIGHT need glasses. squinting at EVERYTHING
he’s got some but idk if he forgot them or something here😭😭😭

You are your daughter get into a car accident. A bystander waits with you for the ambulance to arrive. He says “you will both be fine.” Cha-ching
happened to me actually. that's the kind of wound that doesn't heal..
My brain also is extremely negative but the difference is I hate it and want a labotomy
This is like watching Troom Troom tell you how to avoid your serial killer soulmate.

My husband calls h Jordan “Jarvis’s foot guy” because he says his feet are on camera 100% of the time.
Literally, he sits like he's in the queer community
you misspelled “is” as in
and added an ‘s

You worded that perfectly! 😊
They remind me of Trixie and Katya
i like how they both have a somewhat hard time fully understanding the pov rules on multiple different occasions
I adore your POV TikTok content. It’s respectful yet SO hilarious
jordan mentioning homestuck took me tf out cause like,, Huh???? 😭😭
right like wow this is two sides of my world i never expected to intersect
i got scared i had to pause the video
I figured the soulmate was liking her Instagram pictures and that’s why it was so high lol
Same! I totally thought that would be it when she was on the phone in bed
i thought she was her own soulmate and that she had her front camera on her phone
Cinematic-ass shot @ 13:48
Is it bad that I read that wrong and still clicked anyway?

I personally don't like the ones with random memes at the end. I'm already seated for the bizarre scenarios, don't gild the lily
I agree with the sole exception of "she's really good", that one had me on the floor 😂
EXACTLY FR
so true bill
Everytime Jordan talks about Homestuck it is such a genuine jumpscare 😭😭😭
This is my new favorite highlight. I could watch about five hours of this
"mom are you stupid" had me rolling
If you want to find liars, go to an elementary school. “Oh wow that’s awesome!” “That looks really good” “what a big help!”

At 4:57 Jarvis says "harmful" but every letter is silent. This is black magic.
I'm glad these are getting some positive attention! The POV trend is an easy target for the cringe-police, and yeah theres some weird ones out there, but overall I just cant hate on people just being creative and having fun.
My biggest gripe with them is that all too many of them don't understand the concept/meaning of POV.
@ajeenius7437 yeah that's true, POV is quickly just becoming a word that means "imagine this whacky scenario"

no literally

11:27 Sally. 🕴🏽
20:42 man i love the neurodivergent and a minor meme sm
The idea that the soulmate was actually a secret agent tracking down the serial killer stalking her actually would've been sort of good
he's neurodivergent and a minor KILLED ME
ive been laughing at it ror five minutes my stomach hurts
love the mint green frames Jordan is rocking

2:53 when someone lies to you you get money
because the count went up right when she turned on her phone, I was convinced her soulmate was gonna be her FBI agent
Homestuck mentioned
7:07 do the lies have to be directed at you? Like the amount of comments and posts online that aren’t true would speed up the process really fast
right? the poor economy

Am I the only person who thought her soulmate was going to be her best friend and it was going to be her bisexual awakening moment
these tiktoks remind me so much of "systems" from Korean web novels and webtoons
omg youre so right
ah yes, the "Imagine, if you will," of the social media era.
this episode actually cracked me up, the fucking curtain jokes 😭
POV: tiktok is still hilarious
Welp, I learned the hard way not to take me meds while watching you guys! I got sparkling water into my sinuses and on my pillow!!!
I would assume my soulmate was looking at my social media
Bahahaha ".. but we know from the prequel....."

Watching Pov tiktoks is my guilty pleasure
“mom are you stupid?” I DIED SJXJXKXKC 19:30
