babe wake up new 3 and a half hour video essay about plagiarism just dropped
And I don’t want to be made to watch TikTok videos.
There’s plenty other reasons that disqualify me from marriage but sharing videos on my phone is not one of them
Astonishing that there are dipshits who managed to be offended even by this.
My wife shows me wayyyy more videos on her phone than I show her on mine
Most of the stuff I share is still images/comics/gifs etc
Same. It takes a very special video to get me to turn my sound on. Definitely more of a static content feller
If i know you and you’re in my general vicinity youre gonna be watching a YouTube video even if you’re married to someone else i’m a slut that way
I showed this to my girlfriend and she was like, “I don’t get it, why are you showing this to me?”
So just get married, and watch videos on your wife’s phone.
“I either don’t want people to be interested in or excited about things or I want to gatekeep how they gain their interests”
“Even moreso if it’s a man.”
Found some incels 😂😂
That’s what screen projection is for
I believe, it’s possible to marry women, then you don’t have to watch videos on a man’s phone. 🙃
Nah, I’m too Gen X to watch videos on my phone, let me pull it up on my laptop.
Videos are a big screen activity.
Have you really lived until you have watched a hour long marble race while cuddling
At least medium screen.
For me it’s more that youtube videos are a browser with an ad blocker activity.
Firefox for mobile with your chosen ad-blocker
I’ve found the venn diagram of those who most frequently try to get me to watch videos on their phone, and the people who watch said videos in a third-party browser on a device that supports extensions, is just two distant circles. Your mileage may vary.
I watch things all the time on my iPhone, no ads ever! Use Wipr for a couple bucks or Firefox Focus for free and no ads!
Edit: or Vinegar and Baking Soda also make for better mobile video experiences.
Wipr is the best, no ads nor problems. Frequent updates. Accepts donations!
oh lol… apple…
Yeah, i could never

And a big screen. Not necessarily ‘living room tv’ big, but definetly big enough that I can’t fit that in my pocket.
But not a the biggest screen you have activity. That is reserved for movies and TV shows.
I know, right??
I got married even though it meant waiting for every restaurant meal to be photographed and posted to Instagram before I could take a bite.
One of those moments when I’m glad my wife cares almost as little about social media as I do.
Hell yeah. My partner and I only take pictures of meals we’ve made ourselves when we’re super proud, and occasionally when a piece of sushi looks extra good. Neither of us are into social media.
(Also neither of us make each other watch things on our phones. We just take a note if something sounds interesting and pull it up on the big screen later.)
They are very concerned with the question “What did you have for dinner last night?”
My wife tells me dad jokes. Really really terrible dad jokes. Ones that make me roll my eyes, and I’m a dad. That’s how bad they are. But they make her laugh so I’m ok with that.
i have a tip to get back at her. whenever her phone rings, make sure you say ‘its for you’. i still find this hilarious after 15 years . she is less amused, but at least im entertained.
Have you ever said it and it turned out to be someone calling the wrong number? Are you ever worried she’ll flip it on you and conspire with a friend to have them call you on her phone?
You’re playing a dangerous game, friend.
Please for all that is wonderful in the world start telling me every. Single. One of these.
Or convince her to just start telling me them. I need the ammo to crush my rivals
My Chinese girlfriend makes me watch Chinese Xiahongshu (think Instagram reels) videos on her phone with a cracked screen with her. No, I do not understand Chinese.
My wife with Spanish Instagram. But to be fair, I’m on duolingo learning Spanish
Check out Dreaming Spanish’s method and content (Comprehensible Input)
Over a year at it and my progress has been amazing. About 1000 hours now. (though I need to do more speaking…)
I can understand everyday speech, TV shows, books more than well enough to enjoy them thoroughly. I still get lost sometimes but that’s expected at this stage.
My Filipina wife makes me watch English YouTube shorts. But to be fair, I make her so stuff she doesn’t want also.
I’m learning Mandarin and I can understand some pronouns
Honestly its probably helpful then (aside from the cracked screen! Get it repaired)
Immersion makes learning so much easier. Even if you previously learned it and feel like you forgot, it helps bring things back to the surface so much better imo.
Sometimes I try and say small phrases to her in Chinese. We’ve already learned to argue in Chinese, lol
Have you guys seen Firefly? I always wondered what they were saying and whether their pronunciation was any good
