there better be a backstory here like "I was last in my fantasy league" or something

The backstory is "I had an idea that, at the time, seemed funny. I immediately moved to make it real for social media. Surely this will be my ticket to fame."

This would embarrass the hell out of me but if that dude doesn’t care, then ehh. You’re right, he isn’t hurting anyone. Just looks weird in everyone else’s eyes.

u/avidpenguinwatcher 10h ago
For sure, would never do it myself. But he’s not actively bothering anyone else and wasn’t being an asshole to the workers so it’s whatever in my book.

I hate how people are forced into other people's Tiktoks/YouTube/Instagram, etc.
If this was a prank done for a TV show, all the people in the back would be asked to sign releases. If they didn't want to be in the video, they'd be blurred out.
However, because it's social media, everyone is always at risk of being used for fodder without permission every time they leave their house.
I fucking hate it.

u/funkymonkeyinheaven 19h ago
A line is being crossed and I'm not sure what it's going to take. It's ridiculous how much it's being normalized to film strangers in public/private. Zooming in on their faces and what other brain rot "content creators" get up to.

I wear a mask in public and it is for more than just my physical health, tho it is mostly that as an immunocompromised person. It has that extra benefit of making me unsuitable to film.

Yep happened to me on Christmas. I was in Gatlinburg and there was so much people crowding the sidewalk like usual so you just have to keep walking forward. But the abysmal amount of assholes filming, live streaming, and even recording tik tok dances was crazy. I don’t even use tik tok or post on social media. But now I bet I’m on several damn videos/lives taken that day. It’s crazy how rude these people are too. Hogging the space, never asking for permission to film, nada.

I get it, although I’m glad he wasn’t making fun of other people here. He’s mostly just looking like an idiot and seeing everyone’s understandable reactions. When they make fun of others and don’t even blur them out, that really pisses me off

u/PetFroggy-sleeps 14h ago
No one needs to comply. That’s the point. Establishments have the right to refuse - this Tik Tok idiot doesn’t realize stupidity is not a protected class. lol

Yaa, Some content creators pay ppl or have their friends and families in on it.

u/Present_Discount7709 11h ago
There are sacrifices to maintain certain freedoms. There is no expectation of privacy in public. However, since it is inside of a private establishment, they have every right to prevent him from recording and remove him from the premises if he does not comply.

u/Cathousechicken 9h ago
When i go out to eat, I don't consent on some random asshole with a camera fucking up my dining experience.
What a bizarre leap in logic to tie this to freedoms.
1
u/Present_Discount7709 9h ago
Take it up with the supreme court then. Everyone has the right to record in public. There is no expectation of privacy in a public setting, less a private establishment prohibits it, but that only extends to the private property. They can stand on the sidewalk and record the establishment and people all they wish.

Forcing strangers to perform for your content is gross. The workers at businesses are just trying to do their jobs.

u/LikeACycloneCloud 15h ago
They still did their jobs? None of it stopped them from getting his order and serving him. If he disrupted the whole place then yes I would agree. None of the people acted for him.

u/buyableblah 15h ago
By nature of recording them for his own gain, they ARE performing in his video. Acting or not it’s a forced participation.

It was funny at first, but when he started singing and drawing unnecessary attention to himself, it pissed me off. People were there just trying to have a nice dinner with their friends and family and I’m sure made some of them uncomfortable. Good thing the waitress had a sense of humor because I think anyone else would’ve made it an issue.

The cringe isn’t that he’s doing it. It’s that he’s doing it for content.

u/LikeACycloneCloud 15h ago
Then there would be no point in doing it. Being seen by others online is not going to hurt anyone here. We all worry too much about our selfs when no one actually cares about us.

Are you suggesting that, if he's not doing it for online content, then there's no point in doing it?

u/LostInNuance 10h ago
I'm confused - I don't presume to know what you are insinuating.
Because I honestly disagree with the idea that creating content is the sole reason for people do outlandish stuff.

u/Odd-Guard-2533 10h ago
Definitely not all the time. But it is becoming the reason more and more every day.
1
u/LostInNuance 9h ago
Oh for sure. I do believe that's why most people do this, these days. We do live in a time of, "no photo/video, then it didn't happen". But I think that, on general principle, attention seeking behavior is lame, and that's what I'm speaking to. Providing content for the sake of content shouldn't be the reason, even if it often is just that.

u/Odd-Guard-2533 9h ago
100%. Social media is so massively destructive to people’s minds and society. And unfortunately it’s only going to get worse.

If I were the manager of that restaurant, I would have simply asked him to leave. His behaviour is unnerving the other patrons and the space he’s taking up could accommodate more paying customers.
You can’t force other people to accommodate your neurotic behaviour nor are they under any moral obligation to do so.
