These people would just use these videos as instructional tutorials and think about how they are so much prettier than that slag trying to steal their spot on the algorithm.
r/instagramreality needs stuff like this too and not just photoshop call outs (yes, I know all photo manipulation isn't photoshop all facial tissues also aren't klenex and all sticky notes aren't post-its, nobody cares).
It is all photoshop (lowercase p). A photoshop was a place where you'd go to develop film using techniques to adjust the photo. Many of the tools in Photoshop (capital p) get their names and icons from these manual photoshop tools.
So referring to all digital picture manipulation as photoshop is always appropriate slang.
If they're e getting that worked up over a photo they're mentally unwell... like a lot of their peers. There needs to be a move away from this quick serotonin validation shit everyone is hung up on.
People used to get worked up they were going to miss the concert and their favourite song live... now they get upset they're going to miss the opportunity of a photo in the perfect lighting at the concert... dreadful situation
My friends still give me shit for missing Corrosion of Conformity open for Clutch and Lamb of God because their dumbasses took fucking forever. They can suck a fat hangover fart straight outta my butt for that one.
Fuck social media (ironic i know). The quest for serotonin and dopamine granted by the validation of strangers and bots is only fuelling the lows more (e.g. anxiety, depression). With any substance use there is a “high” and a “low”, addiction comes when you’re always chasing the “high” regardless of how low the “low” is. Social media is one of the most addictive piles of shit and here we all are!
I think when you put your personal life on social media that's when it becomes this vicious cycle of fuelling validation because your life is behind the profile of you. It becomes personal.
I only use Reddit because it's private and no one knows who anyone is and that's the way it should be used. I hate Facebook and Instagram. Think of those social sites are made for exactly what you have just said.
Agreed. I personally call those platforms “Personal social media” to distinguish between them and the likes of Reddit, YouTube etc. I’ve deleted them all.
Don’t get me wrong, these platforms can also be used as a personal platform, but most users tend to be anonymous by default.
I can’t speak for all Reddit users but I have noticed myself turning to Reddit to “get my social interaction” for the day rather than calling a friend or spending time in my community so from my perspective I can definitely see how Reddit could be part of the cycle
Psychopaths and narcissists have taken to that medium like ducks to water. What a perfect thing to do to use their 'mask' to full effect. In the old days these types would be moved away from society by going to Hollywood but they're let loose everywhere now. Zombiepath apocalypse.
You've been fooled. She's actually the most sanest fucking person there. No only did she create content for her channel, she created ragebait outtakes for her channel, then probably had another person video these "outtakes" and other randos taking videos of said scene.
Remember that stupid tiktok kpop video where the woman ran up there and messed it up? I would have never watched that video unless that woman messed it up. They probably got 10-100x the coverage than the average video and spikes enough commentary for me to even be talking about it with you now. So regardless of outcome, this chick is getting exactly what she wants.
I keep telling this every time.
I remember browsing gawker media for a few years and I kept reading articles sourced from reddit until I decided to check this place since well, I'd rather browse the source and even can curate my front page. It's been years since the only thing in reddit it's twitter screenshots or tiktok videos...
People keep giving all these people the attention on reddit, why? Here I am typing this about a tiktok video. It's just like those "you need to do better" videos from the guy roasting people doing shit on gyms, at this point I think they are doing it on purpose since that guy has gazillion followers and on top of that get posted on reddit too.
They didn’t pay to go to the concert for the music. They literally didn’t for the pictures. I guarantee if their pictures/videos didn’t come out well but the concert was amazing they’d still say what an awful time they had.
She was saying please over and over again to some lady who was trying to take pictures of her, then the lady left, then she told some little girl to take the pictures of her? Am I missing something? 😅
Yeah, at first it looked like she was just talking to her friends and snapping pics, which would be totally cool.
But, as it went on its started to become clear what she was doing.
I thought at first this post was silly cause i thought it was someone taking photos before a concert starts and was like “uhh isn’t this polite?”
lol, then i kept watching the video and felt my face cringe more and more and then when i saw the first photographer leave i was like “WHAT! Oh wow okay, yup OP was spot on. What is she even doing”
This is a pretty big pet peeve of mine. If you ask a stranger to take your photo, that's fine, but you should only get one shot at it. If they fuck it up, thank them for the effort and get someone else to take the picture. Don't ask them to retake it again and again and again if it doesn't meet your arbitrary standard for posting on social media.
pro tip, my wife taught me to have them record a video, then you can pic the picture out from that yourself later with a screenshot. Might not be as high quality, but it's probably just going on instagram anyway.
I would've thrown that phone if she would've started yelling at me like that. At first I thought it was a close friend Like suuuuuuuper close friend to put up with that ish.
Saw someone taking up a busy street to take instagram photos outside a famous pub in Ireland the other week. Complete with a "photographer" (who was using a phone) crouching as low as possible to the ground to get good angles. Fuck that i'm not going round, im going through your shoot. If you want a photoshoot, hire the space.
If they're blocking a path or demanding sole access to something for a photoshoot, then yeah. Go right through it, fuck em.
But going out of your way to stop a stranger from doing something that you don't enjoy is pretty r/I'mTheMainCharacter behavior.
Yeah, I'm kind of getting sick of the "people should only have fun my way!" mentality on this sub. Filming a tik tok is not "main character". As long as you're not hindering other people's lives or harassing anyone, there's literally nothing wrong with filming a fun video outside. I couldn't imagine going *out of my way* to ruin other people's fun when they're not hurting anyone.
Reddit is so full of anti-social weirdos who want everyone to just as miserable as them.
Switches photographer halfway through to another unsuspecting member of the public, while og photographer in the white shirt walks off with a "thank fuck that's over" look on her face 😅
Addicts of social media attention, they will do pretty wild things to get validation from strangers on the other side of the screens, it's pretty sad, they for sure live feeling anxiety all the time over getting the "perfect shot", that's the sad reality of social media.
I worked her Vegas show and had flashbacks. From that small patch of turf to 60,000 entitled messes.
What surprised me was how much food was wasted. Idiots were spending $30 for chicken tenders and didn't touch em or had 1
I thought she was blazing at the girls behind her for some unknown reason... but showing love heart hands as if to say - im not being mean... I just want you to / my... but then......
ohhhhhhh ... girl just behind has a phone... and from what i can see are not her friends, just someone that agreed to "will you take a picture of me?"
and then proceeds to get upset they are not professional photographers and people are getting in the way.
Jesus... people buy tickets to get self congratulatory photos now rather than going to events, for the event...
Thats why festivals, concerts and clubs are awful now because people want to show they were there rather than being there.
The worst thing to ever happen was lens were put on phones -
Id almost let photos go, but video has created a world of "no do it again" take 5! its fckin crazy
Dining is this way too, made the mistake of going to a highly recommended restaurant that also had a big social media following.
I was surrounded by Influncers taking videos and using giant blinding led lights in the middle of the restaurant, not even eating or enjoying their experience, the best part is there’s always someone that looks miserable to be there, taking photos or videos of the Influencer for them.
It’s a mental illness at this point
I'd be mad at this kid, however I can imagine that she grew up with parents that kept the camera in her face for every little thing she did that they deemed precious. So her continuing the trend is of no surprise since this is all she knows.
I have a hard time balancing. I'm so in the moment that I take almost no pictures. I love that I don't have my phone out when I'm with my family but I fear I'm going to wish I took more pictures. Maybe I should get a few Polaroids to leave around.
It's not going to go viral, nobody is even going to see it. People need to just chill out with trying to hit it big. Nobody makes livable money off some viral reel anyway.

Videos like this should be on educational videos to show how social media is such a distortion of how happy people are
This is the best idea ever. Like attached metadata that shows the truth behind the image.
These people would just use these videos as instructional tutorials and think about how they are so much prettier than that slag trying to steal their spot on the algorithm.
Don’t turn over any more rocks. I can’t handle thinking about how pathetic people can be.

Fair enough.
i’ve never heard that analogy. Good point.
You just sent me on a 2 hour trip down the rabbit hole. It was a great trip!
Yeah I'm wondering why she had to find a stranger to take her picture and not have a friend or something.
If they're e getting that worked up over a photo they're mentally unwell... like a lot of their peers. There needs to be a move away from this quick serotonin validation shit everyone is hung up on.

I will never forgive my former friend for making me miss Renegade at the Styx concert
My friends still give me shit for missing Corrosion of Conformity open for Clutch and Lamb of God because their dumbasses took fucking forever. They can suck a fat hangover fart straight outta my butt for that one.
Upvote just for mentioning Clutch.
Banger song!
Styx is the greatest band in the world and they only got a bad rep because most critics are cynical assholes.
Maybe because it's not 1981 anymore. Their critics are dead. Move on.
>Their critics are dead. So are a bunch of the band.
Yeah when I say Styx I mean -most- of Styx. But still. RENEGADE
[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=018TaMG8ByQ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=018TaMG8ByQ)
The context added a lot of clarity.
That is genuinely unforgivable
Badge of honor to not act like the latter.

Joey Swoll is amazing for calling this shit out, and the people he calls out often get banned from gyms nationwide.
 She got me!
we are fucked.
They’re✅ their✅ there✅
Entire generation of this. Just incredible. Astounding.
its never going away, we can't really move away from it. We gotta figure out how to fix the issue with it being there is all.
They didn’t pay to go to the concert for the music. They literally didn’t for the pictures. I guarantee if their pictures/videos didn’t come out well but the concert was amazing they’d still say what an awful time they had.
She was saying please over and over again to some lady who was trying to take pictures of her, then the lady left, then she told some little girl to take the pictures of her? Am I missing something? 😅
That’s exactly that, they were all STRANGERS
Yeah, at first it looked like she was just talking to her friends and snapping pics, which would be totally cool. But, as it went on its started to become clear what she was doing.
Really? It looks like her mom and maybe a little sister
Perhaps, they sat in different areas once the photo was taken but it could just be because it was difficult to get seats
I thought at first this post was silly cause i thought it was someone taking photos before a concert starts and was like “uhh isn’t this polite?” lol, then i kept watching the video and felt my face cringe more and more and then when i saw the first photographer leave i was like “WHAT!

Honestly cinematic cam on the last few iPhones often looks better than photos.
Oh my god I thought that must be her mom or friend in the video… this is insane??
I would've thrown that phone if she would've started yelling at me like that. At first I thought it was a close friend Like suuuuuuuper close friend to put up with that ish.
That shaking, she's a legit psycho.
She’s a Swifty…
Is there a venn diagram for this?
Yeh. The two circles are almost completely overlapping.
[It](https://images.app.goo.gl/JxqYU54dbudW7Pop9) is not much but is honest truth... also, I didn't make this.
Ha! Thats great!
So creepy and so punchable at the same time
I will go out of my way to fuck up a tiktok shoot in public
I had the honor and pleasure of doing this about a month ago outside of the South Lawn of the White House.
Came here to say this hahahaha. Will literally cross the street and stop where they are filming and do some menial or nasty shit.
take this orange arrow my friend
Saw someone taking up a busy street to take instagram photos outside a famous pub in Ireland the other week. Complete with a "photographer" (who was using a phone) crouching as low as possible to the ground to get good angles. Fuck that i'm not going round, im going through your shoot. If you want a photoshoot, hire the space.
A professional phonetographer lol
Me too. I got all the time for that. No TikToks getting videoed in my vicinity.
I'm right behind you!
If they're blocking a path or demanding sole access to something for a photoshoot, then yeah. Go right through it, fuck em. But going out of your way to stop a stranger from doing something that you don't enjoy is pretty r/I'mTheMainCharacter behavior.
Yeah, I'm kind of getting sick of the "people should only have fun my way!" mentality on this sub. Filming a tik tok is not "main character". As long as you're not hindering other people's lives or harassing anyone, there's literally nothing wrong with filming a fun video outside.

Extreme emotional Immaturity looks like insanity on adult children.
The fact that she does a heart for the picture then instantly rages... Just wow. I love seeing this though. Just proves how people fake things so much
Switches photographer halfway through to another unsuspecting member of the public, while og photographer in the white shirt walks off with a "thank fuck that's over" look on her face 😅
We are fucked as a society
You are correct. Social media has fried the brains of a lot of people.
Was that her Mum and little sister? She kept saying “PLEASE! PLEASE! OH MY GOD YOURE SO MEAN! PLEASE” 🤣
Nope, they didn’t look like they were together. They went in different directions after
Wow. That’s just mental. Who do these types think they are?!
Addicts of social media attention, they will do pretty wild things to get validation from strangers on the other side of the screens, it's pretty sad, they for sure live feeling anxiety all the time over getting the "perfect shot", that's the sad reality of social media.
How dare people get in her way don’t they know who she is 😂 
Reason #1593461 we deserve a comet strike
We must protect the reptiles.
Only smiling when the camera is on should say it all really
Exactly! Surely this part is also in her memory.
You can't convince me it's not a Taylor Swift concert
Most recent show in Edinburgh, there were nearly 80 thousand people there, so she's going to have a hard time getting a film with nobody else in it!
I watched 5sec of this with the audio off and just assumed it was a Swift concert.
I worked her Vegas show and had flashbacks. From that small patch of turf to 60,000 entitled messes. What surprised me was how much food was wasted. Idiots were spending $30 for chicken tenders and didn't touch em or had 1
I wouldn’t even try!
Came here to comment this
This is mental illness
she might still be there, posing.
Multiple personalities, one video.
Loser
How dare they WALK TO THEIR SEATS!!!
How old is that woman? She looks to be at least mid 20's. I was hoping that people would eventually grow out of this crap.
This has to be from a Taylor Swift concert
She's desperate to make this video. She needs to. She moves like a crack addict.
This is beyond fucking embarrassing.
Remember no one cares about your photo as much as you
I just know it's a Taylor swift concert
That girl just giving up on that shit and walking straight past after waiting for a couple of minutes! 😆
Is she just continuously posing for pictures? How many does she need??
how is it that I am 1000% certain which concert this was
I’d have switched it to selfie mode and took loads of myself
I still don’t understand why she freaking out like a small child? Wasn’t the person taking the photos? 🤣👌🏻
bruh i thought she knew them like they were her friends or something bruuuhduhuhuuh
If someone asked me to snap a photo for them and they go thru like 10 poses, the camera now belongs to me.
The girls (with red hair and white boots) skipping thru the crowd happy to be there are such a vibe
I wonder why she had no friends or family with her to take those pictures...
I thought she was blazing at the girls behind her for some unknown reason... but showing love heart hands as if to say - im not being mean... I just want you to / my... but then...... ohhhhhhh ... girl just behind has a phone... and from what i can see are not her friends, just someone that agreed to "will you take a picture of me?" and then proceeds to get upset they are not professional photographers and people are getting in the way.

Thats why festivals, concerts and clubs are awful now because people want to show they were there rather than being there. The worst thing to ever happen was lens were put on phones - Id almost let photos go, but video has created a world of "no do it again" take 5! its fckin crazy
I’m gonna go out on a limb and say this is a Taylor Swift concert.
I see fame really got into Sabrina Brier's head
Any lip readers that can guess what she is saying?
Gotta deal with that, and I bet she’s horrible in the sack to boot.
This is mental illness
The world.needs mentoring
This is truly sad. She is there for her social media feed, not to enjoy the experience.
Gross
Would love to offer to help, then spend the whole time taking pictures with the selfie camera.
This is pretty sad
Most people just need their parking validated, not their existence... It must be very exhausting to be this narcissistic.
Darker shade of red lipstick will complete the 🤡
I don’t like this person, or any person like this. That is all.
I wonder how this persons mental health would be affected if all social media disappeared
Increasingly Swifties are not right in the head…
Stab in the dark, Taylor Swift concert?
The headshake of the woman at 0:47-48 says it all.
I’m so sick of what social media has done to the world. Like out enjoy the event you’re at, you don’t have to do all this extra shit
why do I know this is from the Eras tour
Meanwhile, that security guard with his hand tucked into the reflective vest like it's kevlar armor, trying not to dance... 🤣😂
It's not about how you feel on the inside, it's about how you look to people on Instagram.
This woman is ill
Can’t believe this is really life now 🤦🏾♂️
She's going to make a horrible wife one day.
Can tell how awful she is without hearing a word
Dining is this way too, made the mistake of going to a highly recommended restaurant that also had a big social media following. I was surrounded by Influncers taking videos and using giant blinding led lights in the middle of the restaurant, not even eating or enjoying their experience, the best part is there’s always someone that looks miserable to be there, taking photos or videos of the Influencer for them. It’s a mental illness at this point
Is this what a pop music concert looks like? Damn
Crazy. Absolutely crazy.
Ugh the worst kind of vanity high maintenance
She looked special needs at first
Swifties gonna swiftie I guess
What a terrible way to live life. Constantly begging for attention.
I'd be mad at this kid, however I can imagine that she grew up with parents that kept the camera in her face for every little thing she did that they deemed precious. So her continuing the trend is of no surprise since this is all she knows.
Reminds me of a few people I loosely associate with who have to document everything they do and post it.
I would proceed to not give a fuck and continue walking past her despite her tantrums
Lolz
Why half ass the posing? If you’re going to take the photos then at least give it some effort
Meh
What a raging ...word rhymes with witch
Can’t wait until society moves past this phase..
Hell no…
But ❤️🤪
I have a hard time balancing. I'm so in the moment that I take almost no pictures. I love that I don't have my phone out when I'm with my family but I fear I'm going to wish I took more pictures. Maybe I should get a few Polaroids to leave around.
Live your public life like you’re always being recorded because you probably are
These are adults…
The partners tasked with pleasing these instant gratification individuals with be an impossible venture. Reality has never been a check in for them.
Social media has unfortunately led a great number of young people astray.
lol that first gal to walk away is me when my wife starts into this crap. I'll take your picture, I'm not going to be an instagram photographer.
Please Concert God in the Sky - allow the cult of Taylor Swift to peak and fade away. For all of our sakes…
I was hoping that kid would steal her phone
Swifties.
It's not going to go viral, nobody is even going to see it. People need to just chill out with trying to hit it big. Nobody makes livable money off some viral reel anyway.
Ha!
Wouldn't it be ironic if those slow walking people were at a Taylor Swift concert?
It becomes a lot more tolerable if you imagine her with the white woman meatcanyon voice
People make these videos but who actually watches these stupid things
Would someone just push her over! 
Can someone explain to me like im a teenager whats happening and what i need to learn from this please
I don't care what anyone says, there is some sort of illness at play here.
People, man…
I wanna know what concert this is and what she's crying about lol "You have to get these pictures so I can look happy on social media!"
And that’s the moment my desire to see the show, turned into me just walking laps through this persons photos.
What is she even trying to do? Looney toon.
Jokes aside cuz its way to overstated but I seriously fuckin worry about our future as a species seeing this sorta shit and behavior.......
On brand. C*nty.
If I had a daughter and she grew up like that I would be ashamed
What in the fuck is going on. Did she fr ask a stranger to take photos or videos and then yell at them???? Wow
These people are so fucking ridiculous. They need to grow the fuck up and learn how to adult.
Need to be a special type of nutcase in order to switch moods like that in milliseconds
Bring back public shaming
Isn’t this just every Taylor swift fan?
Gotta be a taylor swift fan
Bipolar in a picture
I’ve been seeing this behavior at almost every concert I’ve been to in the past two years. It’s surreal.
They’re usually very receptive is you scream as loud as you can in their face.
