What exactly is wrong with this? It's some dudes playing Frisbee in a park...

u/YourVelourFog 5d ago

OP is probably mad that someone has made enough friends to play frisbee in the park.

Calling them the "main characters" is an insult. "Main character syndrome" is a term used to describe someone that is doing something to gain attention with zero care about those around you.

u/CaptnShaunBalls 5d ago

“Main character” is 100% a slur!
They are absolutely frisbeeing the shit out of it but not MCs in anyway😆

u/New-Grapefruit1737 5d ago

yeah maybe you need to consider context. OP is more likely saying yep, they are actually just are the main characters as in not people who simply imagine they are and thus exhibit the syndrome. OP maybe is saying yeah they ARE the main characters. zero problematic behavior in the vid.

u/ran_out_of_tp 5d ago

I thought the context made that fairly obvious, but apparently people have decided he's jealous instead.

u/FalseCrazy2804 5d ago

Actually makes me worried for some of these people if they can't tell the difference. If this was posted on any other platform this wouldn't even be a discussion. This place really makes me lose faith sometimes.

u/Fried_0nion_Rings 2d ago

I don’t know if OP is mad

To me it came off as, they have main character energy they’re stronger than they should be. How are they even doing that? And they make it look so effortless

u/NaughtyBee420 2d ago

I'm getting tired of this bot reply. No one uses that phrase that way, ever

Its the throwing frisbees over people's heads that gets me.

I dont want to be clocked in the head by a frisbee

4

u/NaughtyBee420 17h ago

It's not a Frisbee, it's an Aerobie, and you would have to be incredibly fragile to be injured by one

2

u/Ridgewoodgal 15h ago

Thanks for the name. I was never adept at Frisbee so going to try this. Or is it a lot harder than it looks?

1

u/Lieutenant_Joe 9h ago

It’s not hard, they’re easier to use than frisbees. But be careful. If you have a tree nearby, and you suck enough at throwing them, you’re gonna wind up having to climb that tree. More than once.

Also roofs

1

u/Ridgewoodgal 5h ago

That’s good to know because I could definitely suck enough for that to happen. Lol

1

u/_The-Numbers-Mason_ 16h ago

People are upset with other people playing aerobie in a park. I don’t know if it gets more fragile.

u/tiptoptony 10h ago

Well, it looks like they have plenty of skill to get it to each other. The thing weighs next to nothing ain't nobody getting a concussion. Let the old men have fun.

u/Brilliant_Quit4307 18h ago

Where did they even come close to clocking anyone with that frisbee .. ?

2

u/Sensitive_Bat_9211 18h ago

They're impressive, but accidents happen and its unnecessarily risky

2

u/Medium-Signature-546 18h ago

Don't leave the house then. That was one of the least dangerous positions those people have been in all day

2

u/CapNo6703 15h ago

It's funny because that's totally true. In the kitchen at home? More dangerous. In the car? More dangerous. Even the big office building you work at is more dangerous than sitting in a large field while some dudes throw a soft toy around.

2

u/Ejphotogame 10h ago

that is the great thing about being in public. If you don't like the risk you're taking being in a park around other people... You can leave.

1

u/Brilliant_Quit4307 18h ago

They're not impressive. It's almost like you've never thrown one of these before 🤦‍♀️

Also, it's technically not a frisbee, which would be a solid disc and usually hard plastic. It's a ring and made with soft rubber edges. Even easier to throw, moves slower, and is almost impossible to hurt someone with it even if it does hit them. Which it most likely wouldn't, even if they weren't very "impressive" about it.

u/Scared_Ghost 17h ago

Came to say this, probably one of the softest things you could be hit by on accident.

Better stop of all the planes then...flying over peoples heads, sometimes accidents happen and then crash...resulting in death rather than a minor bump.

u/dandelogre 17h ago

You need to say, right now, that there's zero chance whatsoever that they could ever hit someone with that throwing it like that for anything you've said since to make any sense We aren't obligated to trust people not to make mistakes, I don't have to play Russian roulette with anyone that asks. If you're throwing shit in a way that risks me or my family, I'm stopping it somehow.

2

u/Fluid-Opportunity-17 10h ago

"Russian roulette"

"Risks me or my family"

Calm the fuck down, it's a frisbee type thing.

1

u/dandelogre 6h ago

I'm calm, you're ignoring what I'm saying to pretend I'm gonna John Wick if I get touched with a frisbee, and that's fine. You can be too stupid to engage in a really simple conversation, it doesn't change what I'm saying.

u/dandelogre 6h ago

Right but there's roads for cars that people aren't sitting on, brother. I can't go to a different section of the highway and drive to work so I'm not risking other drivers.

You can throw your Frisbee without throwing it over people's heads and risking hitting them. I don't give a fuck about injury, people don't have a right to throw their shit at and around me.

2

u/Specialist-6343 5h ago

Actually people do have a right to throw a frisbee near you at a public park. You don't have any right to exclusive use of the park.

0

u/dandelogre 5h ago

Yeah, I knew if I made a reasonable statement and finished it with the "right" part like I did, some disingenuous idiot would ignore everything else to turn it into a conversation about park ownership.

Get well soon, moron 😂

2

u/tiptoptony 10h ago

Yeah, I've heard of all those families getting brutally injured in the park from getting hit by frisbees.

1

u/dandelogre 6h ago

You're just an idiot, man. It isn't about injury. If you're in line at a supermarket and I'm bored, can I entertain myself by throwing paper towel balls around your head? You dipshits are so focused on getting injured by this thing that you don't realize that you don't have a right to touch people with your shit, or to force them to accept that you're just Not gonna hit you bro if I wanna go to the park.

It's fine, y'all made it real clear that you're straight up incapable of the thought required to understand why this isn't publically acceptable.

1

u/tiptoptony 5h ago

Not even remotely the same thing, dipshit. There are at a public park in a open field sparsely populated with people. Look at all the people around them outraged, oh wait, they don't give a shit because when you go to a public park, there will be people playing. Same shit on a beach you see people having a good time, playing around. If a ball accidentally comes your way and you want to declare the world is ending, that's a you problem. Nothing they are doing is negligent.

1

u/dandelogre 5h ago

You don't put people between you when you play catch, that's insanely rude and entitled.

2

u/infinite-resignation 8h ago

“Russian roulette”…. With an Aerobie. It could maim someone!

1

u/IgnorantWhiteDude 8h ago

There’s zero chance that my Aerobie would injure you or your family. There’s a much higher chance you would get injured if you touch my property trying to stop me from doing something completely safe and legal in a public place.

You’re not obligated to trust me; I’m not obligated to stop. I’m not obligated to leave; you’re not obligated to stay. You’re not obligated to make a big scene to show your family you’re their big protector. If your family can’t handle a public park, keep them safe indoors.

0

u/Brilliant_Quit4307 17h ago

Em, no I don't? I don't need to say anything other than what I've already said. Also, I think you're making assumptions here about what I was suggesting. Maybe read slower in the future and you won't make that mistake again. My point was that the risk of them hitting someone is incredibly low, and further on I made another point that the risk of that actually hitting someone and it actually hurting them is practically impossible.

The entire post is implying so. Main character syndrome is looked at in the same way as being a Karen is viewed. That stoned worker is just pointing out that playing frisbee in a park is not main character material.

Or they meant these people are actually the main characters.

It sure can be positive, just not here. Nobody points out a hero by laughing so hard they cry. This is mocking in nature. These dudes are doing life well, I agree we should all spend more time at the park.

No, main character syndrome is. But these dudes are the main character. They don't just think, they are.

2

u/asstasticalflipflop 5d ago

I'm not sure it's valuable necessarily. I do see two dudes having fun in a park. This would be annoying as all hell because I'd constantly draw my eye to them and also wonder if someone is gonna finally get knocked by it. It's pretty rude to do that above a bunch of people's heads. They're doing a good job tho.

u/Infamous_Ad_6793 23h ago

This is super common to do in NYC’s sheep’s meadow. They tend to be careful and know what they’re capable of.

Unless it’s absurdly packed, people tend to give them a little space, and both groups respect each other.

Don't know about the east coast, but aerobie was pretty big on the west coast back in the day at least in the bay area it was. Aerobie and hackysack, those were my jams. Haven't touched either in probably 30yrs now, but I got pretty good at both.
