Ya this continued trend of unemployed people trying to become internet famous by harassing people who have a job is crazy. Fuck your internet fame. Public shaming should come back.

u/bigfoot17 13h ago

Public beatings should come back

u/jaron_b 13h ago

I mean if the first person they did this to got so scared that they fought them and broke the whistle there wouldn't be a video to make.

Why has it become a trend to just be obnoxious to strangers? Especially when they are working customer service positions? It’s gross behavior..

u/TheWorldArmada 14h ago

It used to be kids only doing stuff like this, crazy to see full grown adults doing it now

u/Rhinocacrocapig 13h ago

it's the same kids, they never actually matured

1

u/TheWorldArmada 11h ago

Not necessarily. I used to do stupid shit like this with my friends all the time when I was 12, we don’t do this shit anymore. We grew up. I think it’s more that these people are starved for attention, and think recording themselves doing this shit is gonna get them followers/views — which unfortunately some of these people do.

1

u/Rhinocacrocapig 11h ago

What I meant was that these adults doing stuff like this, would have been doing this as kids too, you grew out of it, they didn't

Social media has incentivized it.

u/Fstr21 13h ago

I have an incredibly simple 2 word solution.

Demonetize clicks.

1

u/Whoa1Whoa1 9h ago

Other two word solutions:

  • Jail Time
  • Community Service
  • Death Penalty
  • Forced Emigration

But honestly, anyone fucking with people like this should be forced to do 2 years of community service where everyday all they do is clean toilets, mop floors, run soup kitchens, take out garbage, work in recycling centers, clean up beaches, etc.

Especially with them recording the incident AND posting it online - both of those actions require premeditation, hatred, or general lack of care for others.

1

u/Fstr21 9h ago

I'm okay with community service / jail and mandatory demonetization of any future content.

Because they know those people working - are in no position to do anything back to them.

Same as the people attacking the UK pensioners, demanding their pensions be cut to a fraction of what they are now. I guess next it will be the disabled. Then after that the children.

Today's generation truly sicken me.

u/sociofobs 14h ago

"Has become"? You're probably too young to remember the prank era, roughly 2006-2016. It was fun and glorious when it started out, and quite a long time after that. In later years, it got increasingly exaggerated and fake just for views, anyone who remembers all the "in the hood" bs - I'm sorry for reminding about that.
Then it all died down altogether. Seems now it's partly back, but in any case, nowhere near to what it once was.

I remember my cousin used to have a button operated fart machine he would put in his back pocket and set it off when her walked by people at the mall. We found it somewhat amusing. We were 14 in the late 90's.

A little fart machine is way funnier. I think my heart would stop if someone “pranked” me with a death whistle.

u/hyteck9 14h ago

These whistle things rate at 125 db. That is louder than the 400 watt RMS, 1000 watt max custom stereo box I built , which maxed out at 117 db. It is really REALLY loud, certainly causing pain and possibly even perminent damage if close enough to your ear. This is legally an assult charge. Do not do this.

1

u/animorphsrewriter 11h ago

I've used one of these before for performances. A good one is not any louder than a typical sports whistle (90-100db), and the shitty 3D printed Amazon ones are disappointingly quiet. No point in being hyperbolic about it.

Also, not defending the asshole in the video. He should honestly face public nuisance or disturbances charges for this kind of harassment. But he's not giving anyone hearing damage.

Especially that kind of loud noice gets amplified in close spaces. Can seriously damage people's hearing. Can cause other heart issues as well. This is crime and public harassment.

u/Iconshero 12h ago

Fear of sounds is pretty incredible. I was watching a revolutionary war (US) reenactment battle in a history class years ago and asked the teacher why they didn’t have archers still during this period since they weren’t wearing armor. He tried to explain the sound of musket and canon fire in battles but ended up inviting anyone who wanted to go to a reenactment at the end of the month and a bunch of us went. The sound 100-200 black powder muskets and cannons going off constantly is terrifying. I go to the range and shoot modern firearms and they don’t make me flinch as nearly as much as the raw sound musket fire did.
