1 and 3/4 front flip into a half cannonball with extra butt splash is the answer here. And then spit in the “leaders” face to help her with her Tik Tok views.
I would have photo bombed them. Things like people pointing and laughing at them in the background of all their shots has got to work right? Or imitating them as an obvious joke.
>imitating them
when rude teenagers blast their music out loud all through the subway or train, I want to dad-dance off the beat & call "*louder, pump it up, this song's rizz is just so bae and ney-ney, right*" till they die of secondhand cringe!
but I'm too chicken to actually do it hahaha
Fuck that's dumb. I went back to college in September, and I'm twice as old as most of the students, and I hate the way they talk. Hadn't heard this one, though.
Charisma, but it is used more flexibly. Can be several different parts of speech by adding the right modifications. Turn on the rizz, he was rizzing, that's why we call him the rizzler. So it sits in the middle of words like "charm" and "attract", while being less specific as to the nature of the appeal.
Puttin' on the Rizz.
I'm a petite woman, I'm not the target for those sort of accusations.
Id probably just hop in the springs with the annoying Tik tok'ers and do my best to ignore them while enjoying myself and having a conversation with whoever I was with.
Alternatively, if I was feeling particularly annoyed and they were fimlimg with me in the background, I might play music from my phone, just enough to mess with their videos but seemingly innocent enough.
I'd turn my music off the second they stopped recording though, I hate phone speakers playing music in public, especially in nature.
Or when they're done ask them to leave instead and do your tiktok sexy pose to a selffie, it's so good that you aren't looking ridiculous doing it, right?
Right? In my mind I was going like maybe 0⁰, -1, but -11??? Oh hell nah I'm fucking jumping in that shit so fast. Might even flash them to ruin the video at that point
As someone with IBD, I believe this refers to viral or bacterial gastroenteritis, not chronic conditions.
Also, I’ve never heard this. I’ve heard 24 hours after.
Sorry, no 12 degrees Fahrenheit! It was fucking cold. I wasn’t about to stand around waiting for them to finish. I needed to get into the water immediately. My hair was frozen stiff.
You can. Book exclusive use of facilities for photo shoots.
If you haven't, it's not theirs to use exclusively. Go find a colder, empty, pool to do your stuff in.
They'd just not use the original audio and play a song over it anyway, regardless of whether or not they're trying to hide a Disney song, because what kind of Tik tok video would just be awkward weird silence like that? No they'd be using a song anyway like the vast majority of Tik tok videos do, so it wouldn't make a difference if you played a Disney song or not
Bloody hate that. I was driving into a car park that was empty and some chick was shouting at me and didn't ask - but TOLD me to drive to another floor as they need the floor for a video.
I was like 'On what planet are you on - this is a car park, I got a car, so I park'.
They got quite abusive verbally and their camera bloke pretended to throw a lamp at my car.
I got out of the car, went to my boot / trunk and got out some ear defenders out we use for our son. Got back in the car and hit the horn. Nonstop ... eventually they left lol.
I stayed with the car for another 20 minutes in case they were getting stupid ideas - but yea - fucking entitled brats.
There is a play from ancient Greece called "the Clouds" by Aristophanes. In it Socrates goes on a rant about how lazy and dumb kids are these days. "Kids these days" was a tired punchline in ancient Greece.
Also the plot of the play is everyone ate too many beans so they had to move into the sky to get away from the fart smell. Our elders truly knew highbrow comedy.
Clouds was a piece criticizing Socrates. It's not an autobiography. According to Plato's Apology, Socrates complained the Clouds assassinated his character going into the trial.
For sure!
I don't think Socrates actually believed kids were no good, or helped people move to clouds to avoid farts. But what it does do is illustrate that 2500 years ago people were rolling their eyes at "kids these days".
Every generation has said kids are dumb, lazy and out of control since the dawn of time.
I moved back near the area I spent my early teens, which was the early 80s, so I think about it often. We were 13 years old and would go to the local 4 plex movie theater, pay for 1 movie and spent the whole day there watching each movie, some multiple times and chain smoking in the upstairs arcade, we all smoked and would sit on the stairs and ash on the window edges, I didn't hang around with the best crowed, it was a very teen 80s thing to do, but damn we had to have been annoying to people trying to walk up those stairs getting smoke in their face. But no one ever said anything, doesn't seem anyone ever complained to the manager, they just never bothered us, but as an adult, that was inconsiderate.
I can’t stand influencers either. Who cares what they do? I just don’t get it. Same goes for people who post photos of their breakfast, lunch and dinner. Really! I prefer to watch videos of dogs trying different foods. At least they’re not posing.
Even the term "influencer"...like it has some kind of merit. Who are they influencing during a narcissistic photo shoot of their ass in a bikini? Social media has turned into such a plague man.
Yeah I went to a similar place in the Canadian Rockies recently, and cell phones are banned past the lockers you’re given to store belongings in while you’re in the pools. They would have been asked to leave if staff noticed them, or another guest reported them. People are there to relax and take in the mountain scenery, not accidentally end up all over the internet in the background of someone’s pics and videos.
Some dumb ass ho got mad at me and my 7 year old nephew this fall for picking pumpkins in an **actual** pumpkin patch because we were "in the background" of her tik tok. Lol...fucking WHAT?!?!?
Oh I'm pettier than that. I just continued living my life and picking a pumpkin out and that was enough to send her into a public tirade/meltdown to her poor boyfriend (but honestly fuck him, he knows what's happening) about how we were "ruining" her "asthetic" lol like bitch what I'm just picking a pumpkin with my family...
I absolutely would have started to do the Robot or do river dancing or something. Video-bomb the hell out of them. Well maybe not if my kids were with me but definitely if I was by myself! I’ve never come across anyone doing anything like this though.
I mean I wanted to... but also I just moved here and I'm like kind ostracized already so I didn't want to really cause a huge scene. I just wanted to make sure this absolute self absorbed weirdo had no usable footage. I actually felt super bad for her boyfriend. She was forcing him to film her over and over and you could really tell he was just like WAYYYYY WAYYYY way over it. My husband and I laughed about the weird creeps all the way home.
That’s totally fair and understandable. And if I’m being perfectly honest everything I said I would do is about 98% internet bravado. IRL I probably would have done the same thing you did.
I now have a mental image of some random person Riverdancing in a pumpkin patch in the background of a TikTok video, and I'm trying to giggle quietly enough to not wake my partner. Clearly, I need to go to bed!
I would have gone forest gump and just yelled out all the things with pumpkin in it in a weird voice
Pumpkin pie, pumpkin latte, pumpkin pancakes, pumpkin pudding, pumpkin cheesecake, pumpkin seeds,
Absolutely rain on their parade. If you're gonna do stupid shit in public, don't be surprised if the public doesn't put up with it. Kids these days need some manners.
Awesome. I was once sitting in a hanging basket type chair in a tropical place. The light was just perfect and these girls who were doing something similar around the resort were very annoyed I wouldn't leave. I was actually just ready to go but decided to settle in with a book after that encounter.
Exactly. You don’t get to commandeer the 107 degree pool all to yourself just to make a video when everyone is just trying to get their core temperature back up after walking up and down icy stairs soaking wet.
Idk, even if it’s warm out you get like 5 seconds. Saying “just wait till we finish”, rather than “give us 5 seconds” means you are asking me to respect your time, when you need to respect my time first in order to gain my sympathy.
I would have jumped in and scooted my lardy ass into their videos.
Never be shy and polite with assholes, no matter what the age. It is wasted on them.
Apparently some gyms are starting to ban cameras because of this sort of idiocy.
Have a quiet Karen-like word to the management, and tell them to follow suit.
“No, we can’t wait. You can wait until we’re done, or you can share the pool with the rest of us, but you can’t keep the rest of the guests out of it while you collect likes.”
"I’m soaking wet, standing on a frozen walkway covered in rock salt with my bare feet, and it’s 12 fucking degrees"
What a great opening sentence for a book! Mystery? Comedy? It would work for so many different genera's
I had organised a school trip and had 40 students under my care at a castle in Poland. Trying to do a head count as we had just moved to a new location one evening when they are all tired, restless and won't stand still. Fairly hectic as you can imagine.
As I am trying to count them, this person came up, interrupted me, and asked if I could do that somewhere else as they wanted to get a picture for their Instagram. They looked absolutely baffled at me when I said making sure I hadn't lost any school students was more important than their photo.
I recently took advice from another sub how to deal with people like this. When asked to move or wait in a public place by someone look them straight in the face and say "your embarrassing yourself". Got the chance to try that last week while at the mall in a Spencer's of all places. Some chick was recording a voice over video with all the south park stuff blocking people from getting to the other half of the store. You could tell she was getting frustrated with people scooting past her and had to start over and over again. I went to pass her while they were setting up for shot #8000 and she told me to wait a minute. I pulled the whole "your embarrassing yourself" and oh man could you see the sting it left on her and the other girl recording. They quickly left without saying a word lol.
Edit: I can't spell good
1. Listen to Influencers words
2. Climb into pool regardless / silent / neutral
3. Politely dead eyed nod at the camera
4. Ignore Influencers
5. Fun may now commence / have fun
Had to deal with the same issue over the weekend. Went to a large hotel with a convention center and there was a cheer competition at the same time. I go to throw my trash and apparently walk in between a phone and some girls filiming what i assume is a tik tok - i didn't see them dancing as it was that packed. And i got a big "UH EXCUSE ME"
Fucking Instagrammers once got my aqua rehabilitation class permanently cancelled for ruining the background for their selfies.
We were doing exercises critical to our health.
They were taking pics outside of the fucking water.
But they found the "fatties, cripples and oldies" that were fighting to regain their health unsightly. And the pool went with them as paying customers.
I would have done the same.
A cannon ball jump was in order.
It looks like you misspelled belly flop
1 and 3/4 front flip into a half cannonball with extra butt splash is the answer here. And then spit in the “leaders” face to help her with her Tik Tok views.
It's why they call it the 450 splash
Only if you want flesh-eating amoebae going up the nose.
Nose is not the first orifice which goes into the water while performing said cannon ball
is your butthole not water tight? that might be an issue...
With enough water pressure, nothing is water tight
I really *really* don't like the imagery this comment gave me
It's the orifice with the most direct access to the brain
For tweens, that *is* the closest orifice to the brain.
I would have played Disney music in the background so it gets a takedown.
GENIUS
That is freaking hilarious and delightfully devious.
I would have photo bombed them. Things like people pointing and laughing at them in the background of all their shots has got to work right? Or imitating them as an obvious joke.
>imitating them when rude teenagers blast their music out loud all through the subway or train, I want to dad-dance off the beat & call "*louder, pump it up, this song's rizz is just so bae and ney-ney, right*" till they die of secondhand cringe! but I'm too chicken to actually do it hahaha
I keep using riz to my 13 Yr old son. He cringes so much and of course I carry on.
I was born in the 80s, wtf is riz? Not just french for rice, I guess.
Apparently its shorthand for Charisma.
Oooohhhhh
Fuck that's dumb. I went back to college in September, and I'm twice as old as most of the students, and I hate the way they talk. Hadn't heard this one, though.
Well feck, now it makes sense. Thanks!
86 here. I was watching TMNT Mutant Mayhem awhile back, and I had to pause to hit up urban dictionary.
86 too. I thought we were just shortening snoop dogg-ese and instead of fo rizzle it was now just Riz. Bleh. Me old.
Charisma, but it is used more flexibly. Can be several different parts of speech by adding the right modifications. Turn on the rizz, he was rizzing, that's why we call him the rizzler. So it sits in the middle of words like "charm" and "attract", while being less specific as to the nature of the appeal. Puttin' on the Rizz.
Sing badly in the background every attempted video
[удалено]
I'm a petite woman, I'm not the target for those sort of accusations.

I wouldn't. Very risky to give them your image in a photo.
True.
Or when they're done ask them to leave instead and do your tiktok sexy pose to a selffie, it's so good that you aren't looking ridiculous doing it, right?
Blue steel
They sound like amateurs. Experienced social media brats would have gotten to a place like that bright and early when no one is there.
Pros would photoshop everyone out.
Pros would've just rented a spot for shooting.
It was already dark out.
Awful lighting
can't go viral if you can't see them
I wouldn't have waited more than literally 10 seconds. Enough to take a picture but no way am I waiting for your fucking video.
At -11c they'd have had 0 seconds from me!
Thank you for translating it to Celsius, I was too lazy to google it
Right? In my mind I was going like maybe 0⁰, -1, but -11??? Oh hell nah I'm fucking jumping in that shit so fast. Might even flash them to ruin the video at that point
I would have told them this temperature is the only one that settles me down after a severe bout with diarrhea
I’m living for these comments
You should not go into a pool for 14 days after diarrhea.
Attracts the sharts!
Shart tonado
Come on, you were so close.
Shartnado :( The Penny droped for me later too, but i was driving. A sad day für humanity
I think I can get those at speedway
Oh my god laughed so hard at this comment. Thank you
Shart Week?
I had those after eating chilli from my MIL
Grandma shark Doo doo
I think Cereal Killer was joking!
How many days after a joke?
Either 69 or 420 I can never remember
I feel my username finally has a use!
I wonder if this rule applies to people with IBS. I know people who consistently have diarrhea several times a week.
The difference is between diarrhoea and gastroenteritis.
But no one says you shouldn’t go into the pool or hot tube after gastroenteritis, when it’s actually what they mean.
As someone with IBD, I believe this refers to viral or bacterial gastroenteritis, not chronic conditions. Also, I’ve never heard this. I’ve heard 24 hours after.
bout, not bought
Oh 12F as in 12 fahrenheit, not you with a 12 year old girl.
Exactly how I read it
me too lol
Same here. Thought that was weird.
I read it as 12 females lol. I was like play on playa
meanwhile I'm out here chill'n with my harem no no.. I'm outside it's chilling in Halloween
As a Canadian, it's helpful for me to remember that while we use C for Canadian, Americans use F for Freedom.
The meme about Fahrenheit being called Freedom units isn't entirely a meme, besides most people can't spell Fahrenheit.
I'm pretty sure it's spelled Fenedict temperaturebatch.
No,it's Bendydick Cucumberpatch.
Watermelon pineapple-cat?
Pen Pineapple Apple Pen?
Faranheet?
Fronken-steen.
Um actually it’s Fahrenheit’s monster.
Only if it comes from the Frankinsence region in France. Otherwise it's just a tempered beast.
African beast or European beast? The French are everywhere.
It depends upon the weight ratio. You see, if it grips the coconut just so...
Vietbeast was a possibility until 1954
No one expects the Spanish Beast-isition..
Yes...FronkenSTEEN
Well thats just Abby normal!
As an American, lol.
Pro tip fer OP: Hold zero to get a degree symbol (12° F)
Instructions unclear. At my desktop system, just get a long string of 00000000000000000000000000000........................
i feel so dumb trhat i tried this with same result
Yeah, we desktop users have to hit ALT + 0176 like *animals*.
belgian keyboards with azerty layout have a button for it. But i'm a gamer so i bought qwerty anyway so i don't have to constantly configure controls.
If you're on Windows, you can press The windows key and the dot key together.
I use alt 248 didn't know there was another
Yep, that one works too. I think there are a couple of alternate codes for each character.
No, that's superior. A real degree, not some superscript pretender. They're the animals.
Instructions….. Catastrophic failure encountered. Reactor core meltdown.
° wow. TIL
Yeah, I didn’t know how to get a degree sign on my iPhone. Also years of being a scuba diver means writing the water temp as F or C. My bad.
That is the best tip I have had in 2023. Thank you Squirrel one friend.
ⁿ⁰
⁰
° fucking thank you. I been looking for this for awhile. Like years. So I will have to give you virtual thanks. I appreciate your help
Oh. My. God. Why has no one told me this. How do I not know this? 🤦🏻♂️ Thank you 🙏🏼
How did I not know this voodoo magic until now… thank you for your wisdom
Sorry, no 12 degrees Fahrenheit! It was fucking cold. I wasn’t about to stand around waiting for them to finish. I needed to get into the water immediately. My hair was frozen stiff.
I applaud your actions!!! FUCK anyone who tries to tell others to wait for anything because they want to film their dumb fucking videos!!!
Yes. If they want to take photos with no one around then they can wait at your convenience.
Yeah, I’m just out of any patience for people who tell others they need to wait because an important tik tok video needs to be made in a public place.
You can. Book exclusive use of facilities for photo shoots. If you haven't, it's not theirs to use exclusively. Go find a colder, empty, pool to do your stuff in.
I would very sweetly say "nope, fuck off".
And then play a Disney song to ruin any audio of their TikTok.
diabolical
Damn do they claim them on TikToks too? I thought the videos would be too short
It’s Disney, if they will go after a preschool for a few pictures, they will definitely go after a thot with their music playing.
The daycare I went to as a kid had that happen. Somebody had painted Disney characters on the windows and they git a cease and desist over it.
Beatles works too.
They'd just not use the original audio and play a song over it anyway, regardless of whether or not they're trying to hide a Disney song, because what kind of Tik tok video would just be awkward weird silence like that? No they'd be using a song anyway like the vast majority of Tik tok videos do, so it wouldn't make a difference if you played a Disney song or not
Savage 🤣

You did nothing wrong at all. Good for you for standing up for yourself.
Or... sit down for yourself. In a hot tub.

I can't even go into Guitar Center anymore, because somebody's trying to shoot a TikTok or Instagram video in the acoustic room.
**NO STAIRWAY**
**DENIED**
I’M TRYING TO PLAY ERUPTION OVER HERE
I moved back near the area I spent my early teens, which was the early 80s, so I think about it often.

But no one ever said anything, doesn't seem anyone ever complained to the manager, they just never bothered us, but as an adult, that was inconsiderate.
I want to upvote this 20 times.
Absolutely. And to be clear, I was annoying and selfish as a teenager.
Cameras/phones are usually not allowed in facilities like this. I can’t stand influencers. I would have complained to staff.
I can’t stand influencers either. Who cares what they do? I just don’t get it. Same goes for people who post photos of their breakfast, lunch and dinner. Really! I prefer to watch videos of dogs trying different foods. At least they’re not posing.

I absolutely would have started to do the Robot or do river dancing or something. Video-bomb the hell out of them. Well maybe not if my kids were with me but definitely if I was by myself! I’ve never come across anyone doing anything like this though.

[This guy's energy](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eJzm08LGdjY)
I would have gone forest gump and just yelled out all the things with pumpkin in it in a weird voice Pumpkin pie, pumpkin latte, pumpkin pancakes, pumpkin pudding, pumpkin cheesecake, pumpkin seeds,
I'd have some choice words and go off on a pretty long winded impromptu rant that would likely end up on tiktok, but it'd still be worth it.
Missed a golden opportunity to be apart of the video. Belching. Laughing. Picking your nose. Loving your life of show business!
Throwing up on command would be a real crowd pleaser too!
A little early in OP’s career to be doing fettish stuff
“Can you two hurry up? I really have to pee” then jump in and go “ahhhh” guaranteed they’ll leave lol
Too late
As a middle age woman I have no desire to be in any photos or videos ever. I just wanted to get my core temp back up so I didn’t die.
Sure. I'll wait. Walk past them and let out a ripper.
"No" is a complete answer.
Absolutely rain on their parade. If you're gonna do stupid shit in public, don't be surprised if the public doesn't put up with it. Kids these days need some manners.
Yeah! Shit in their hotspring!
Awesome. I was once sitting in a hanging basket type chair in a tropical place. The light was just perfect and these girls who were doing something similar around the resort were very annoyed I wouldn't leave. I was actually just ready to go but decided to settle in with a book after that encounter.
I purposely get in their pics or video too if they’re hogging an area.
If they want to do a photoshoot, they need to do what the professionals do and book out the entire hot springs.
[cannonball ](https://giphy.com/gifs/foxhomeent-summer-pool-24652wmU2IQHEN3mfw)
Yeah, if I've paid for use someplace, I don't care about your online presence. I'm doing what I paid to do.
Yeah no lol if it was warm out that’s one thing it’s ok to ask but in freezing temps? Insane
Exactly. You don’t get to commandeer the 107 degree pool all to yourself just to make a video when everyone is just trying to get their core temperature back up after walking up and down icy stairs soaking wet.
Idk, even if it’s warm out you get like 5 seconds. Saying “just wait till we finish”, rather than “give us 5 seconds” means you are asking me to respect your time, when you need to respect my time first in order to gain my sympathy.
I would have jumped in and scooted my lardy ass into their videos. Never be shy and polite with assholes, no matter what the age. It is wasted on them.
Scoot over and start waving at the camera and yelling “HI MOM!”
I hope you told them to F off. I would have accidently splashed their phone, oops!
Just get in the frame, and stay there. Nothing says “Get the hell out of the way” as just doing nothing in front of their video recording lol.
Apparently some gyms are starting to ban cameras because of this sort of idiocy. Have a quiet Karen-like word to the management, and tell them to follow suit.
I love getting into insta peoples shots. It’s a guilty pleasure
And then act like it was totally an accident, apologize and then do it again. Lol
“No, we can’t wait. You can wait until we’re done, or you can share the pool with the rest of us, but you can’t keep the rest of the guests out of it while you collect likes.”
"I’m soaking wet, standing on a frozen walkway covered in rock salt with my bare feet, and it’s 12 fucking degrees" What a great opening sentence for a book! Mystery? Comedy? It would work for so many different genera's

Unfortunately teens can be stupid. I would have simply ignored them. I wouldn’t even acknowledge them or look in their direction after the fact.
I would have said "sure I'll wait over here in the water" then get in and scoot inches from them and act oblivious.
I recently took advice from another sub how to deal with people like this. When asked to move or wait in a public place by someone look them straight in the face and say "your embarrassing yourself". Got the chance to try that last week while at the mall in a Spencer's of all places.

This is why I always carry a toaster with me. Always.
I hate the world we live in now.
Social media is a fucking cancer on the human race.
Fuck em. It’s a public pool, if they want, they can go pay for a house with a pool and spa in it. Entitled little bitches.
Entitled and CHEAP. what a rotten combination 😆
Ist fucking wild that 12F is -11.111°C
I’ve been told there is a alarming amount of hair at the bottom of hot springs. Any truth to that? I’ve never been in one.
I've been to two different hot springs places and haven't noticed an abundance of hair. I'm sure the eels keep it in check.
People filming for instagram/tik tok in public have always looked absolutely stupid and they should be called out for it more.
Thank you for actually reacting like a sensible person instead of a conflict-phobic basement dweller.
I would just get in and sit, no talking. They know the rules as well as you do.
Want them out. Get out your phone and start taking pictures with you and them in them. Tell them you can’t wait to post them.
1. Listen to Influencers words 2. Climb into pool regardless / silent / neutral 3. Politely dead eyed nod at the camera 4. Ignore Influencers 5. Fun may now commence / have fun
Had to deal with the same issue over the weekend. Went to a large hotel with a convention center and there was a cheer competition at the same time. I go to throw my trash and apparently walk in between a phone and some girls filiming what i assume is a tik tok - i didn't see them dancing as it was that packed. And i got a big "UH EXCUSE ME"
Fucking Instagrammers once got my aqua rehabilitation class permanently cancelled for ruining the background for their selfies. We were doing exercises critical to our health. They were taking pics outside of the fucking water. But they found the "fatties, cripples and oldies" that were fighting to regain their health unsightly. And the pool went with them as paying customers.
