Not even the wackiest scenario he’s done.
Bro legit took this one incredibly seriously and talked about the consequences of having to explain sudden freak accident deaths to pre-schoolers and how conspiracy theories would proliferate about Reagan being responsible because supposedly he had pushed for the launch to stay on schedule even when issues came up because the plan was for him to make s phone call to the crew of the ship from the SotU address that year.
Basically Reagan would go down in pop culture canon as being the man who murdered big bird, and whatever consequences that sprung from that would be the biggest shift vs present timeline instead of the obvious fact that big bird would be canonically dead since all the normal viewers would have seen him go up in a fireball and die.

Nah he’s a bird，he could fly on outta there. A little singed, maybe, if he dawdled
baldingpudenda@lemmy.world 3 months ago
Allegedly, he screamed “wildcard, bitches” before kicking the door and jumping out.

I’m glad I’m old enough where I can actively pretend like I don’t know how to use technology.
Like I was at a bar, and some weirdo asked if I was on Facebook and I shrugged and said I don’t understand technology and they go, “Totally makes sense at your age!”

I like the alternative reality where Ronald Reagan had Big Bird killed for the State of the Union address

Next time I talk to a girl at a party, I’m gonna ask to see her browser history “because it’s a good test for red flags.” Judging someone by what they watch or read is stupid. Judging someone by what YT thinks they would like to watch is even worse. I know this is completely besides the point, and it is just a meme, but judgy behavior like that irks me.
SpaceCadet@feddit.nl 3 months ago
I think the question is rather forward for a girl you just met at a party, but at the same time I think someone’s youtube recommendations would be a good indicator of some obvious red flags that someone may want to consciously hide from a prospective partner. For example, if someone’s feed is full of alt right/joe rogan/incel crap, or for women, full of FDS crap, you’re damn right I’m gonna judge.
Logical@lemmy.world 3 months ago
I can definitely see the point if it’s literally all there is in the feed, but if you just watch things from people you disagree with from time to time, and the algorithm picks up on it, there’s bound to be a few things in your feed that might “look bad” if they are used to draw conclusions about your worldview from someone who doesn’t know you.

I don’t think anyone is really trying to divine the true essence of your soul via youtube. It’s a conversation starter.

I dont think so. I shared this pic in a discord and literally seconds after a couple dudes started asking about the results of that test. I guess we all wonder that because I dont think the percentage of population using flavoured condoms is that high.

ATDA@lemmy.world 3 months ago
You’re correct. Judging people based on an algorithm your have no way of knowing is indeed a red flag ma’am.
renzev@lemmy.world 3 months ago
Burn me at the stake if you must, but I think if I was a woman and I saw that a potential mate’s recommended was full of *ndrew t*int videos or similar, I would take it exactly as that: a red flag. Not an immediate condemnation but a sign that something MIGHT be wrong. It could be that they’re watching the videos with a critical mindset, or the algorithm is just doing some wonky shit, but I would probe further just to make sure that they aren’t a raging misogynist
ATDA@lemmy.world 3 months ago
Yeah I’ll eat crow on that. Tate is in my thumbnails because I’m probably just a little too deep into politics. Maybe not a red flag as much as a bore flag.

The biggest thing is that all the Muppets on Sesame Street canonically exist in the same world as us at the same speed as us. One week for us is one week for them. If Big Bird died in real life, he would also die in the show. Which would be a problem, since at the time he was the de facto audience insert and was as popular as Elmo is now. It would also definitely cause tone issues which patents might not like. Imagine if Elmo died and Big Bird had to try to explain to Zoe that her best friend wasnt coming back. Or imagine her bringing Rocco to the funeral.

It’s not. I spend too much time vetting and blocking right wing channels despite never watching any while logged in.
mayo@lemmy.world 3 months ago
I usually binge a specific channel in a new subject then youtube blasts me with whatever they think will engage me the most and it’s always the trashiest content. Big red arrows, all caps, surprised faces, misleading thumbnails.
Duamerthrax@lemmy.world 3 months ago
I once left a live stream open when I went to bed and the next day, I had train videos on my recommendations. They had raided into a train live stream.

Although if that were my recommendations they would be let down because i turned them off. You can’t one up me, i am simply one step ahead of you.
