Internet for real is killing balls, I like to go out and go crazy a bit at bars at concerts etc and would just like to forget it the next day, instead there are people always with these fucking phones at hand making pics and videos, starting from some components of my group with the tags etc, had to delete all socials I have to let them do the reporters and live my life without being aware of what they publish

A few friends and I went to go see Taake at a little venue in Greenpoint, NYC years back. We wanted to be in the pit so we moved towards the front and it was clogged with what some call "poser hipsters." They just stood there texting, playing on social media or filming the whole time wasting venue space. It was infuriated as these idiots just stood there staring and tapping at their phones while a band was playing. So we decided to make life miserable because it was the pit after all. So we started up the pit and explicitly threw each other into the human tripods for laughs. After we knocked those phone zombies around a few times they got the hint and moved towards the back. And you could even see some were miffed and gave us dirty looks but hey, this is a metal show so FUCK OFF AND DIE! We had a blast and there was just one pic taken of a friend who managed to grab a selfie with Hoest.
I get your point and I wholeheartedly agree… but I’m also having a chuckle thinking that you mean you like to just go nude to concerts and bars with your friends.
No you know if you’re American then I am going to cheer you, the maneskin are Italian, but the first time I saw the singer topless was in US at coachella, so while the soul is Italian, the place is US :D
In theory, it's not them recording it, but rather the reactions of society that cause the problems. Banning discrimination based on out of work activity might be a good remedy.
Yes but it’s unlikely to have that kind of cultural change during my lifetime so the most realistic solution right now is just to avoid reporters, on the other end I don’t really see the value of being published to be seen by strangers in any case, when I’m enjoying human in person company
While I don't go quite crazy at the bar or club, I'm quite annoyed that my friends only remember to take pictures at the end of the night when everybody looks at their worst - to post to social media.
I seriously feel bad for the youths these days. I had so many hijinks and antics partying when I was young. Now that would all be on social. A real panopticon we live in now.
Some of are perfectly capable of being dumbasses in public perfectly sober and still would prefer it not be documented for internet stranger ridicule if it is not harming anyone.
I am also capable of that, perfectly able of go crazy when sober too, and still I don’t want to think about it in other settings, I disagree with other people that say that I want to forget about it because I am ashamed, I just want to have fun when I have to have fun and then live seriously or not crazy when I don’t have to or there are other backgrounds
sounds like more than a little drunk. I liked to go get drunk and do stupid shit too but I stopped after I realized I was at an age where doing stupid shit was potentially harmful to my wellbeing and welfare and not worth the fun it provided in the moment.
If someone is doing something and then immediately wanting to forget about it, there might be a reason why they want to forget about it, probably because it’s unhealthy for themselves and for others
Or maybe because it is fun in the moment 9/10 times but that 1/10 it is not makes you want the ability to forget by default and compartmentalize that part of your life.
Or just you want to have fun when it’s time to have fun and just have a work setup when it’s work environment, family setup when it’s family environment etc. yeah compartmentalise when it’s time :D
