it doesn't help that they just shut him down like that, that wasn't genuine that came from a place of rejecting the unfamiliar play to your character or don't play at all kinda deal but people ain't characters

@@BeanoNoir Ba dum tss

yeah some kind of comedic aspect to the whole thing, really makes me laugh for some reason

@@spanzotab The "for some reason" is because it's funny lol

Well I think it’s important to point out that most anxiety is a projection, whereas this scenario actually happens and for a very specific reason. It’s nothing personal.

Yeah but the lesson is that with the 4th you're good. Just bring a friend everywhere. Easy! (J/k I hope your SA gets better)

Yes and then you’ll be like let it go but then it always comes back

accurate lmao

For me it happens randomly I can't pinpoint the cause (most of the time big crowded areas) but it's getting better over the years normally, but I sweat like a pig or used to

i dont ever deliver when pressured fuck em

Ya gotta stick up for yourself somehow. Try making a joke like "No, that one's just for you," "Sorry, I'm not drunk enough for that," or even a slightly exaggerated scowl with "Hey, I'm not your dancing monkey!" Or, you could even say something like "Nah, the situation's not right for it. It has to happen organically." Then if they argue you can go like "Dude! Come on, it's gonna bomb this time. Set and setting." And then just casually dismiss them after that. If you don't take the whole thing too seriously then it can even open it up for you to do The Thing, because you showed a sense of self-awareness and the whole buildup kinda becomes part of the humor when the big reveal is as underwhelming as you said it would be. Even though I feel like a lot of people do that sort of thing to pretend to be humble, if you're genuine it won't come off that way. Or, if you just don't want to do The Thing and you keep dismissing them, it ends up making the person who keeps pestering you look like the awkward one as long as you make an attempt to steer conversation elsewhere with good humor and don't get too annoyed with them. Humor is one of my favorite things and it's basically a life saver. Cook it just right with dashes of straightforward honesty and you got yourself a recipe for getting out of most awkward social predicaments. Just be okay with admitting that you made a bad joke once in a while and people generally don't judge unless they're assholes. Although they might make fun of you a little, but that's usually a sign that they normally think you are funny.

NO, THIS COMMENT IS TOO REAL, I JUST EXPERIENCED IT. This entire comment section is like a scrapbook of social nightmares

Now, based on the 911 format, there's the _988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline_ in the US & sometime in 2023 in Canada. 211 is also good for finding local help with things like rent, food, clothing, and health, mental and dental care. See Wikipedia for more info on these and other three-digit phone numbers in North America. I wish you well, and hope other countries have similar options.

Don't worry, he has time to make new friends if he just keeps postponing the Grammies

Now, see, that's the wrong dynamic in the opposite direction. And that's hilarious.

They were in love with each other . Lmao

But good on them :)

Sounds like me and my sister. We’re an entertaining duo for two, maybe three hours, then one of us has to leave, or else people start throwing themselves out of windows just to get away from us.

@@cooliusmaximus5802 No I was like this with a guy I went to school with lol. Crazy energy that rubbed off on others too, while randos thought we were insane. Then life happened and I never got that energy back :] Oh yeah and I initially replied because the "in love with each other" assessment makes no sense. To me, at least.

i needed to hear this. you're so right abt ppl thinking you're too quiet sad and introverted to hang out, until you find the right ppl who don't make you feel like a loser

this fr, I thought I was 100% an introvert until I got out of my tiny primary school into a highschool with enough people that I could actually find a few I get along well with. Turns out actual human contact where you can connect with people is a good thing!

I hope you find yourself an extrovert that cares about you, cause those peeps be bringing the best out of ya.

Me asf when I wasn’t with the right crowd

I understand you man

That’s when you just laugh at them for being goofy even though you don’t get it

DAMN I didn't catch it that's really dope

That’s not a plot twist it’s literally just a blooper. All of the videos end like this

@@matthewmartinez2129 WHICH in fact improved upon the actual skit as it made an unintentional metacommentary on the topic, it's brilliant

She wasn't anxious and awkward, she just wasn't the center anymore. You don't even know her lol. It was just a blooper. But to not just be the correcting twat, I loved it too and it defo was the cathartic moment I didn't know I needed x)

Me neither. Trent is like a sweet teddy bear monk inside a regular man's body.

huuuuuuuuu

@@ralek592lmfao

to be honest a sadder ending would've sealed the message off better, the blooper kinda ruined it for me

It isn't easy being the calm one. I mean it is kind of, but also it isn't.

@@t0xcn253 if I had the emotional depth, this situation would make me a *little less calm*

Yeah, it was kinda painfully relatable

Me at work, every day. Last man hired.

@@pachinkotronkfollo1075 Yeah, why does this happen?

Hmmmm so something of a 'social credit score' you say? 🤔

@@duckqueak no, thats based on someone having inherent value or not, its not like that black mirror gel. stats is more like +15 comedy, +75 serious, -20 patience etc. so maybe having 3 people with comedy in mid 50s would gel better than say two +80s and a +20. what a system that would be tho....

That's pretty dystopian

@@lucieirlPeople told me I had zero patience, but I told them right there and then I actually have -20

It's called Tomodachi Life

It's why it has to be in a 4some! There's got to be a Brian to appreciate the chill and calm :)

but he is also quiet calm and strange

Shut up Trent

I think the internet has ruined the word bear for me, but yeah, that's true in that sense as well

True the intro with just them was insufferable

Just like in many movies and TV shows 😅 "Aight let's go 5 steps away, no one will hear us"

1:31 she jsut waits while staring into nothingness lol

She powered down like a robot lmao

You are a good man. Thank you

I appreciate you. I'm not at that point yet but I try to get everyone involved

Hey that's a really awesome thing to do, and I promise you the people around you appreciate that as well.

It's undeniable that certain personalities just don't combine well in social settings but if you exclude those people they'll never develop those skills. Like I could be the weirdest motherfucker on planet earth but with a 10 in charisma everybody thinks I'm safe and mentally stable it's like magic.

Yeah, not to ignore the joke, but people shouldn't do this in real life. It's just picking when you want to be a friend and not. In this skit, Trent had no friends. He had people who will occasionally treat him in a friendly manner. They're about as close as co-workers.

not sure what else you expected to happen though

@@bambii-_ all good, I think I can help. THOTH says " I thought they would all like each other." Which might imply, maybe, that THOTH expected they would all like each other. Just a hunch. Slight possibility.

Smh like- at least *try* to talk to eachother

This happened to me once. A coworker invited us to her apartment and her non-work (real) friends were also there and I don't think she introduced any of us or offered any group activities and I have to hang out with someone a couple of times before I start feeling less shy.

Shoul've let them get to know each other on a personal level first, otherwise people don't want to sit at the wrong group lol

But Trent has still that great 1-on-1 dynamic with Joel while for me the only person I can hang out with well is myself

​@@Trollyulian sadly, i can relate

Thanks for the laugh 😂

That's where the real pain is 🥹

I feel like Trent when I talk to myself because I've nobody else to talk to and I start to think my jokes are lame and stupid. I even kinda feel like this comment is lame and stupid.

@@GeoNebula Except you can't explain it as they did in the skit, so the awkwardness just keeps building from there.

Yeah I tend to get real nervous about introducing friends from different friendships to each other bc I fear being rejected by association. It definitely better now though, I only tend to have close friends who are on the same level of honesty and communication as me

the moment I realized I don't have to constantly joke around and make innuendos to feel at home in a group was for me one of the best moments of my life.

@@julian0451 lmao pat old patty bateman good old pat

@@snarkycommenthere9027 That goofy pat with his take on race and global warming and such

@@julian0451 Yes I know that, but there is something in the tone that makes him seem so self-confident in what he is saying that it feels like he just made that thought up on the spot.

For example: once we stayed at one of the two girls' house and we usually like to do stupid things and to record them. We ended up playing a game where "the first one who laughs loses". I started to sing Shakira trying to imitate her voice cause I thought it was funny. Nobody even heard that, cause they were too busy trying to make the other laugh. Once we watched the video they finally heard it and they died of laughters. I felt so sad in that moment, cause they needed to watch a video to notice, otherwise they wouldn't have ever know.

I had a similar experience to you with these two girls who I considered my best friends, but once I got a girlfriend, one of them accused me of distancing myself from them and prioritizing my gf above them, so she started being distant w/ me. It was always really fun to hang out with one-on-one, but when the three of us were together they would talk to each other more and even leave me out. After a lot of back and forth fighting, I eventually broke it off because friend 1 was constantly being passive-aggressive to me and I knew I'd be happier if I left. So I went to my other friends and my life has been a lot more peaceful and fun these days
