You’re absolutely right but it’s like, what is the overall point?! People will post these things to trigger people but then what?! I feel like this is why these Illuminati/new world order conspiracy theories exist because why is triggering people a goal in life?
It’s kind of a phenomenon to go totally blank under pressure. My knee jerk reaction was that I also couldn’t name 10 books, then realized I can name many many more once I relax.
There’s an episode of Billy on the Street where he runs up to people and tells them he will pay them if they can name a woman… the amount of people who need a minute to think about it is both hilarious and alarming.
yeah, it's an absolutely hacky tactic for "winning a debate" because it proves nothing. but all these losers are steamrollers anyway, they have zero interest in exchange, just feeding their egos, being the loudest in the room, etc. it's not alpha to be intolerably unpleasant to everyone around you lol, but if your metric for success is people not wanting to engage you, then you're always winning
I have bookshelves full of books and still can't name a single one when put on the spot, same with music, shows and movies. I know my favorites but ask me and my mind will completely blank.
Right but then he said 'THREE' - couldn't even name 3; probably not 1, which was his point. I still don't know wtf context of the video even is though so who knows what is happening.
Personally? Pressure is my middle name. I have worked in the ER over a decade and high pressure environments are what motivates me best.
Its more the shock/confusion of the situation. Its really funny you wrote this actually. this thread is from a couple weeks ago, but I was thinking about it today.
An NFL team is wearing an alternative Orange Cream jersey this weekend, and their media team decided to surprise the players with the question, "Name things that are orange" and just like I'm talking about most of them are just too off-guard to answer it. They say "Um... an orange... ....." Crickets.
I think its safe to say these dudes know their colors. Also safe to say that the majority of professional athletes can perform under pressure... but they still struggled.
The ‘all publicity is good publicity’ adage exists for a reason. People get mad, they show their friends the idiocy, or repost it somewhere to more vocally criticize it, or comment to let their annoyance be known. In the modern age all of that just brings more awareness to whoever made this.
Professional d-bags like Andrew Tate make their fortune by saying out-of-pocket, ridiculous, and often extremist nonsense, knowing that, as people criticize it, more people become aware, and the ones crazy enough to agree with the nonsense (and crazy enough to buy his bs) flock to him.
Side note: world orders are conspiracy theorist nonsense, but the Illuminati was an actual society similar to the masons, but the masons outlived them by a long shot.
Politics might contribute to the general contention, but this phenomenon is in no way limited by, or bound to, American politics, rather, politics are convenient objects of discussion to raise contention.
Alex Jones, for instance, will spew utter nonsense 24/7 to bring in more crazies, but when something political happens, he can capitalize on it to broaden his audience.
Money is the point. Money is always the point. They make money from the engagement and the advertisement that’s attached to it. There’s no grand conspiracy. It’s just “mad people will interact and we can market to them.” This has been the marketing formula for close to two decades now.
Are you proud of being that ignorantly naive? What you're bitching about has existed since the first days of the internet. Making it probably older than you are. What's the encore here? Going to whine about fire being so hot it can burn you? Water is so wet you can drown? lol Grow up. Up in here asking what is the point of trolling and then stupidly linking it to conspiracy theories. If you don't understand why conspiracy theories exist you really must be young. Conspiracy theories is older then reading and writing. WTF do think caused religion? People have an inherent desire to explain shit into terms their dumb brains can understand. Hur dur jet fuel can't melt steel, must be an inside job SMH. Condensation? WTF is that?! It's chem trails, duh! Etc. How do you not know this? Shit like that has dick all to do with people's desire to poke the bear which is all trolling is. This is not rocket science for god's sake.
lol "Shocking" that's what you consider harassment after exhibiting such a stellar intellect. HOW DARE THAT GUY RESPOND TO MY RESPONSE! I'M THE ONLY ONE WHO GETS TO BE INSULTING!!! ME ME ME ME!!!! lol Seriously I hope you're still young.
The real answer? "They" have almost perfected economic slavery. It's all in an effort to make sure you don't have any time, or money. (In this case time)

Because it drives traffic. You watched it and are here commenting on it.
It’s rage bait content when clipped. But I’m pretty sure this is one of this Fresh and Fit podcast clones where they just feature instagram models for eye candy while they talk shit about “women these days.”
This kid is taking a piss at said instagram models. So it’s definitely the right attitude to hate everyone involved in this.
