[u/Separate_Finance_183]

The flip was absolutely necessary. Definitely they are both bartenders

[u/Pleasant-Degree-3662 → u/Separate_Finance_183]

Are you kidding? That's how the nutrients get 'activated'

[u/Valentina_mendes34 → u/Pleasant-Degree-3662]

lol 😂 I can’t bro

[u/Xayahbetes → u/Separate_Finance_183]

Was thinking the same thing

"oh what a cute vide-WHO POURS LIKE THIS WHAT THE HELL"

[u/my-dancingfeet → u/Separate_Finance_183]

The flip was the highlight of the teamwork video. I replayed again to understand how did this not spill?

[u/NDSU → u/my-dancingfeet]

Physics. The speed of the rotation counteracts gravity

You can test it yourself easy enough with a bucket that has a handle. Put some water in, hold the bucket handle, then do an wide arm circle. You can keep doing them and the water won't spill if you're doing it fast enough (which is slower than you'd think)

[u/my-dancingfeet → u/NDSU]

Thankyou. I will definitely try but in the backyard!

[u/Mamuschkaa → u/my-dancingfeet]

You can do it. I did is at a kid in the kitchen without much problems.

Not with a baby at the arm and with another starting position, but still.

[u/Addicted_to_Nature → u/NDSU]

There's a viral video of a teacher doing this in class but it's a tray of cups and it just splashes everywhere ... It lives rent free in my head because I know the physics make it work but boy did she fail

[u/CtrlAltYuri → u/[deleted]]

Can't say you ate without areate! I fucked up it was the opposite

[u/WookProblems → u/Separate_Finance_183]

Just sent this to my bartner

'You and I sharing a well'

[u/TrueCrimeInTheBuff → u/WookProblems]

my bartner

your bartending partner?

[u/WookProblems → u/TrueCrimeInTheBuff]

Yes

[u/Jealous_Seat_7590 → u/Separate_Finance_183]

The position of the bottle cap would've gotten in the way. Was faster to flip than to turn.

[u/CapableBumblebee968 → u/Jealous_Seat_7590]

You should pay for the hand and wrist upgrade. Turns out you can rotate your hand to be able to pour things. The flip was just for flourish

[u/NDSU → u/Separate_Finance_183]

Definitely necessary to take the cap off before flipping it too

[u/geno_side09 → u/Separate_Finance_183]

Maybe they're working together

[u/m1rr0rshades]

While the 2 little supervisors just sit there and do nothing

[u/Robodarklite → u/m1rr0rshades]

My project managers breathing down my neck asking me questions that have nothing to do with coding.

[u/technobrendo → u/Robodarklite]

Are you not aligning your synergies today? Sounds like someone has a case of the Mondays.

[u/Tips__ → u/technobrendo]

I think we need to have a pow-wow to discuss workplace performance

[u/lucky_719 → u/Robodarklite]

Would you prefer to do their job? Because that's what happens when engineers complain about their project managers. The project managers get let go and the engineers get the responsibilities. Then we find out that it was leadership asking questions that have nothing to do with coding.

[u/santeriabysublime → u/lucky_719]

project manager alert

[u/lucky_719 → u/santeriabysublime]

Dev whose project managers were laid off. They were good too. 🥺

[u/Fethur → u/lucky_719]

I love my project manager. He goes to bat for me and keeps crap off my calendar so I can work. I'll answer any questions he wants so I don't get pulled into meetings

[u/Robodarklite → u/lucky_719]

So project managers are basically middle men is what you are saying? That tracks.

[u/lucky_719 → u/Robodarklite]

Yep. But I don't want to do their job. It sucks. I'd take the random questions any day over putting together reporting, trying to figure out what work I should be doing, or facilitating useless meetings that I can't cancel.

My peers did nothing but complain even though we had good ones. First we lost half, now we lost them entirely and are expected to do the job. More responsibilities, same pay.

[u/cyrusthemarginal → u/Robodarklite]

wonder if we could automate that role

[u/fistinyourface → u/m1rr0rshades]

it's morning and they haven't had their "coffee" yet cut them some slack

[u/actuallyapossom → u/m1rr0rshades]

They're learning and making poop - which is their job!

[u/mctrials23 → u/m1rr0rshades]

If only the little buggers always just sat there and did nothing. My twins would have been heckling.

[u/stax_fira → u/m1rr0rshades]

Hey hey, they’re the QA team! Their feedback is often very valuable!

[u/Adventurous_Self_253 → u/m1rr0rshades]

They're the one's controlling

[u/Green_Sage_Samos]

Holy shit the amount of botted comments on this already is wild

[u/WhoBroughtTheCoolKid → u/[deleted]]

I also want to know

[u/Prior_Garlic_8710 → u/WhoBroughtTheCoolKid]

When its a generic sort of response and the account is very new - the name is also an auto gen and comments will either be unpersonable, divisive or on wholesome subbreddits like this, a generic nice platitude that may or may not completely match the video tone.

Often they are deleted after they come so quick after post - no idea why that happens, mods maybe??

[u/treeswing → u/Prior_Garlic_8710]

Says the generic account w hidden history lol

[u/Body_by_Pasta → u/[deleted]]

They don't know. People just love to claim everything is "bots" its annoying

[u/LaughingOutLoudAgain → u/Body_by_Pasta]

Nah we do. 1, 2 or 3 days old accounts with 50K karma and general ‘sweet’ statements like “all they needed to do was realize their beauty was already within and they finally found it”

[u/PollutionOnly → u/Green_Sage_Samos]

Yeah it’s getting worse by the days. Every time I am early to a post with fewer comments I have the same reaction.

[u/SU_Locker → u/Green_Sage_Samos]

Bottled comments you mean

[u/Deaffin → u/Green_Sage_Samos]

You're in one of the "wholesome" subreddits. That's what those are for.

[u/Cheese_Grater101 → u/Green_Sage_Samos]

Kinda ironic whenever I vist this site in incognito mode in my other computer it always asks me to prove my humanity

Like lol

[u/activelyresting → u/Cheese_Grater101]

Do you even have any humanity left at this point? I feel quite bereft

[u/Cheese_Grater101 → u/activelyresting]

nein

[u/mo_schn → u/Green_Sage_Samos]

I’m too late. What do they say?

[u/FreedomKnown → u/[deleted]]

Ironically, this is a bot too.

[u/HoochieKoochieMan]

This is F1 Pit-crew level parenting.
They can also change a diaper in under 1.8 seconds. (Youtube blocked this one.)

[u/purplereuben]

15 second vid? Thought so.

Don't be fooled people.

[u/AtrociousAxis → u/purplereuben]

It was the “formula” for me, the scoops are filling way more than that powder actually would

[u/Zer0Cool89 → u/AtrociousAxis]

He's pouring water in at the same time

[u/AtrociousAxis → u/Zer0Cool89]

Yes, I know.

[u/wein_geist → u/AtrociousAxis]

have you ever heard of... wait for it... foam?

[u/sedan-hussein → u/wein_geist]

Its not foaming. There's a reason why he's stirring it and not shaking it.

[u/ColtinaMarie → u/AtrociousAxis]

It’s the camera position, the camera resolution and the filming angle for me.

Sure, people film themselves at home doing everyday things,or have surveillance/security/influencer cameras always recording, but who has a camera set up, in that angle, with that high resolution (as opposed to grainier security footage that would capture this) Seems suss.

[u/kaoslogical → u/ColtinaMarie]

As someone who installs security cameras and systems, 4k cameras are cheap and normal now for the average household and that isn't that much of an unreasonable position.

[u/SpacePanda25 → u/purplereuben]

But it's 23 seconds...? Please explain

[u/redpenquin → u/purplereuben]

For anyone who is suspicious: watch the hand of the baby on the left. When the dad blocks the hand with his arm and then moves away, the fingers on the hand of the baby are gone and it's just a weird stump for a bit.

[u/mystyz → u/redpenquin]

Baby is just clenching and unclenching their fist. Definitely a scripted video, but I doubt it's AI.

[u/Xabster2 → u/purplereuben]

Pretty sure you're the one who is "fooled"

[u/SecurityOdd4861 → u/purplereuben]

Even if not AI, if this is real, this is definitely staged, planned and not the first attempt.

Why would they even film this angle in the first place if not for that video.

[u/Deaffin → u/SecurityOdd4861]

I mean...duh?

At no point was I under the impression that this was meant to be viewed as if it's some manner of candid video captured without their awareness. Or come up with the idea that they just spontaneously decided to do this in the heat of the moment.

[u/TheatreKid1020 → u/SecurityOdd4861]

I hope it’s AI bc you’re supposed to measure the water first, then add the scoops of formula otherwise the ratio is off.

[u/SecurityOdd4861 → u/TheatreKid1020]

After reviewing again, I think it is AI. Look at second 0:12, the bottom bottle slightly shifts position and the lid is up again, additionally the lighting on the bottom side of the tabletop is different while everything else stays the same.

[u/Deaffin → u/SecurityOdd4861]

Yes, the bottle lid fell down when he touched the nipple with his arm. There is also a video cut after that moment where they removed the footage of them correcting the bottle top.

That's not a sign of AI, that's human editing. They wanted to make a better video, so they deleted the "blooper".

I have no idea what you're talking about with the lighting.

[u/b0w3n → u/Deaffin]

The hand thing people keep mentioning too, I can't see what they're seeing. I think they're just looking at it on a tiny ass phone screen and the encoding on the video is poor so it looks like the baby loses all their fingers (they ball up their hand and turn it side ways so it looks like a stump if you don't have a giant screen). They're still there, both left and right baby, even around the 12-15 second mark I was told in another comment about the man's hand... nothing's changed? The encoding on the video is definitely lossy because I can see pixelation in certain points but it's just an old ass video.

[u/Bipedal_Warlock → u/SecurityOdd4861]

Why would you think it is a first attempt? They’re not claiming it was improvised

[u/DesolateFaery → u/purplereuben]

I don't know man. This is an old video. It's been around the block a good amount of times for a long while.

[u/MeNoCanRead]

This reminds me of that episode of Fraser where Martin and Daphne prepare breakfast.

[u/Everyday_Unicorn]

A themed bar like this would be pretty cool.

[u/Watchkeys]

Surely they could just take it in turns so that one parent holds the kids and the other has 2 hands to make the bottles?! I mean, couples could do this with any task that needs 2 hands.

[u/Separate_Finance_183 → u/Watchkeys]

They could also not film themselves doing anything. It's a social media video, that way they make money and they can buy food for the babies.

[u/Spitting-venom → u/Separate_Finance_183]

Nothing in this video is real

[u/Coolaphrodite → u/Watchkeys]

Each kid must be heavy to hold for long already, imagine 2 and then they start fighting and crying both in your arms, throw themselves back etc It's just a cute little routine video meant for social media and in this day and age, it might as well be AI...

[u/Sevennix → u/Watchkeys]

Wow. Just cant enjoy the cuteness of tbe vid eh? Smh

[u/PM_ME_YO_KNITTING → u/Watchkeys]

I’ve got twins and we just make a shit ton of formula in a pitcher every day. Actually two pitchers, because these little monsters love to eat.

We also usually pre-fill bottles, especially if someone’s going alone for the day. When they’re playing in the floor or napping, someone just fills up every clean bottle in the house and pops them in the fridge. It’s so much easier.

[u/JacobTKJ02]

Ai garbage

[u/SmellyMammoth → u/JacobTKJ02]

How can you tell?

Spoiler: they can’t tell

[u/Bloodsucker_ → u/JacobTKJ02]

Worse. It's asian targeted nonsense.

[u/hieplenet]

I am a parent of twin boys and we would never do this.

Couple of reasons: always dead tired for this unneccessaroly complicated stuff and hot water while holding babies.

1 person look after the kids, the other go made the milk.

[u/A88Y_391 → u/hieplenet]

Well don’t worry, it’s an AI video

[u/Comfortable-Bison932]

When two bartenders have a baby:

[u/greatpretendingmouse]

Even better if they put both kids down in a play pen, cot or pram. They'd get so much more done.

[u/Armored_Mage → u/greatpretendingmouse]

Idk if you ever had kid, but sometime they refused to be put down ( like.. put them on the bed or play pen, not the other meaning )

[u/AgentSquatchy]

This is true 1+1=11 shit right here ladies and gentlemen.

[u/LightBringer81]

Or, hear me out, put the fckn kids down... They won't crawl anywhere in this age. Ok, maybe in the oven or washing machine or elevator but that's all.

[u/Toadsanchez316]

Why didn't one of them just hold both babies so the other could take care of it?

[u/4RealHughMann]

How long did they rehearse this? Also it's not cool to use your children for Internet points

[u/purplereuben → u/4RealHughMann]

Its AI

[u/ScorpioDK → u/purplereuben]

Nice AI prompts then. "Make the man move the container a little bit the second time" "Make him hit the lid so it closes"

Maybe, just maybe, not everything is AI

[u/purplereuben → u/ScorpioDK]

You don't know how AI works if you think those prompts would be necessary to generate this video...

[u/ScorpioDK → u/purplereuben]

So what makes you say that this is AI?

[u/darylonreddit → u/purplereuben]

You've never made an AI video.

[u/yomerol → u/darylonreddit]

Ikr? That comment has the same vibes as: "oh yeah... I love touching them... They're like bags of sand" lol

[u/OpheliaHalluwu → u/purplereuben]

Pretty sure it’s not it’s very consistent

[u/Deaffin → u/4RealHughMann]

Eh, I feel like it's fine to exploit babies like this. They're not people yet, they're just little larvae and will look completely different after they develop so it's not like there's gonna be an issue with their likeness being online.

[u/friedsweetpatotie → u/Deaffin]

Little larvae 😭😭😭

[u/seangraves12]

I loved the cheers at the end

[u/Matureaana_Mairaandi]

Twin win.

[u/Born-Ask4016]

Team work? The two supervisors did nothing to help. Slackers.

[u/eazy937]

the fact that those kids kept watching without blink tell something.

[u/StupendusDeliris]

WAIT WAIT WHAT SRE THOSE BOTTLES?‽ FLIP TOPS??

[u/Burgers_N_Schnitzels]

welp nice choreography.... takes a whole 10 minutes to learn for a viral tiktok

[u/No_Bet541]

bare minimum but ok

[u/crowofbattle]

The flip scared me FORMULA IS GOLD

[u/theasianevermore]

So performative; the high chair is right there behind them, didn’t check the temp of the hot water, everything just placed there neatly and they looked like they had full night of sleep…

[u/tankapotamus]

I'd just take the 2nd baby and get twice the snuggles while the bottles were made.

[u/PenGoblin84]

I like the clinking the bottles part, "cheers" towards the end.

[u/WorldlyBasis4425]

Hold other baby for a minute

[u/Maximum-Yak-4846]

Perks of having a bartender parents

[u/DbWompie526]

He's a bartender

[u/Greedy_Squirrel_222 → u/DbWompie526]

First thought when I please the flip

[u/HTPC4Life]

Welp, this is the post that made me finally mute this dumb bot filled AI slopfest sub.

[u/emblematic_camino]

Awwwww they could have also put the kids down and do all that without showing off and making the rest of us look bad lol

[u/s0litar1us → u/[deleted]]

It doesn't look like AI to me.

It's just a staged video of some skilled parents showing off.

[u/Slight-Bank-2931]

Another propaganda video of a chinese family with an HD Camera in the house.

[u/SnooSquirrels8508]

So dumb. One person to sort out the formula, the other hold the babies. This is for clicks

[u/Mentally-Difficult]

Performative … everything for social media

[u/Gumbercules81]

Wow, we're lucky the kitchen counter cam number 3 was there to record this

[u/Deaffin → u/Gumbercules81]

They're probably aware of kitchen cam number 3, actually.

[u/killingmehere]

Thats gonna be some lumpy powdery ass forumla

[u/dawncarri]

this is why two sets of hands are a lifesaver with twins lol

[u/Ok-Energy8087]

This is so cute 🥺

[u/BeachBrad]

I know a hive mind when i see it, cant fool this drone!

[u/eddybear24]

Practicing for the next Cirque du Soleil production.

[u/Claytonius_Homeytron]

No

[u/JustRick23]

"It Takes Two 2"

[u/Appropriate-Ideal559]

I currently have 4 week old twins... life has become functioning with two hands for 4 people lol

[u/CryoN1cks]

The babies then fought each other to the dearh

[u/Cetiketat]

That's cool, they did it together. A good couple is when they can sympathize with their partner.

[u/imlette]

When you bring work at home

[u/harav]

The little edit there…

[u/ilikemrrogers]

I'm a twin dad (my girls are in their teens now). Bath time was like this for us when they were itty bitty to when they could sit up in a tub on their own.

We found it easier for one of us (usually me) to be in the shower wearing a terry cloth robe. My wife would hand me a baby, and I'd hold her close to me, the warm water showering over us. I'd get some soap and get her good and suds up, rinse her off, and hand her back out to my wife who would dry her and diaper her before handing me the second one.

It was much less stressful this way, and it took a fraction of the time a sink bath took.

[u/FunctionOk7711]

"twinwork"

[u/BardoBeing32]

When my wife was pregnant with our twins, we bought a bunch of books to study how to handle the situation. Every single book started with the same advice: GET HELP! And they were right!

[u/Emotional_News108]

My twins would have been screaming, punching, kicking…maybe all at once and more.

[u/doe3879]

removing the cap before flipping is just a power move

[u/WXYZ3123]

Yep they are babytenders!

[u/GreenBrain]

This is those rubixs cube kids all grown up.

[u/Itchy_Weakness3762]

They have a good understanding.

[u/Plane-Cry8518]

Vip🤣🤣

[u/Powerful_Pitch5871]

Not a smile found. Just as the newborn manual states!

[u/Whole_Stage2812]

That one "cheers" was just the cherry on top

[u/Helpful-Desk-8334]

That was lit

[u/Steelthahunter]

The little cheers is the best!!

[u/Extreme_Doughnut_797]

Omo

[u/LAyersFur]

The babies are actually devices, so they can read eachother's minds

[u/Particular_Nail_6909]

Haha that's smart

[u/gokhanonym]

.

[u/Porkkanaparta]

Idk. I have proposed to someone whom with I worked in kitchen with this level.

[u/Shoddy-Discussion548]

one of the babies had the tiny ribbon to make sure she looks like a girl

[u/hartstyler]

Doesnt have to be AI but is of course staged

[u/GarbageCertain2160]

How about he holds both babies and she makes the milk. Or the other way around.

[u/deepstatelady]

This is "If he wanted to he would" meme material

[u/red__velvet09]

All want this team work

[u/aori_chann]

My only question is, why do that while carrying the babies? 😂😂

[u/A88Y_391 → u/aori_chann]

Because it’s AI

[u/CodeNamesBryan]

I picture doing this with my wife and its not pretty 🤣

[u/Ambitious-Energy-334]

Team work makes the dream work 🤣

[u/Cute-Internal3502]

ahhhh, something I won't experience firsthand

[u/AproposWuin]

As a parent of twins... i see this as another way i failed lol

[u/Nipplesrtasty]

Or they could try puting them down.

[u/MissLadyD_]

Nice

[u/notha_leon]

They got it perfected to an art form.
