    That’s why I send my memes to my wife’s phone. so she can view them on her own phone.

    Seems like there is a solution she hasn’t considered. Marrying a woman who has and uses her own phone. It won’t be “a man’s phone” then.

      Or a man that doesn’t use a phone, only a laptop.

      Or a non-binary that doesn’t use any technology.

      Or a clone of herself, that way she’s just showing herself her own phone.

        Clones stop being you the moment they are created, assuming they had your memories in the first place, which isn’t scientifically plausible.

        Please be serious about this 🙄

    Don’t have a kid. You’ll be made to watch videos on their phone. For hours’ worth of your life.

    A man can get into a lot of trouble, if he doesn’t watch the endless tiktok reals with enthusiasm and excitement.

    I guess people don’t know the stand-up comedian Blair Socci yet. She’s kind of funny but I have a feeling this was an idea for a joke that isn’t fully formed. A lot of comedians use social media to workshop their stuff…

    Showing me the weird shit you watch on YouTube is a requirement for me, I want to know what videos you watch when you’re alone and bored with nothing to do.

    If only there was another option… kinda like a gal pal that would do that weird thing with the wisk and the cattleprod, and didn’t try to show you their monster truck videos on a broken Galaxy 4.

    Ah well, that must not exist, guess that’s that.

      Same. It takes a very special video to get me to turn my sound on. Definitely more of a static content feller

      Mine shares reels, every 19 seconds she has something new to show.

      I try to share useful information from youtube but she doesn’t have the attention span to watch them anymore.

      So it’s a one way road and i’m trying my best to just nod and smile at the reels while keeping focus on the information i’m trying to contain from the long form video. It’s a bloody warzone sometimes, “hey, look haha. Hey, look haha. Hey, look haha”…can you give me 10 minutes please? And then she’s pissed at me.

      Short form content…i want my old wife back, can you please remove yourself from existence. You ruined her.

        Mine even acknowledges that I hate tik tok videos while shoving them in my face. And when I’m not being shown videos, I’m getting filled in on some petty drama that no one should give a fuck about.

        The app has turned her into an extremely negative person.

    I showed this to my girlfriend and she was like, “I don’t get it, why are you showing this to me?”
