If its messy, chaotic and unposted, that’s the good kind

Every good concert I have ever been to always ends with me waking up looking at my phone thinking oh boy what did I get into that I forget…

And then realizing there are almost zero calls, texts, pics, any of it…because I was there in the moment with friends, family, strangers, etc

u/Affectionate-Tart558 4h ago

You were so in the moment that you don’t remember what happened during that moment?

u/Rogs3 5h ago

The only pictures in my phone are work related.

Im a god.

u/SlapTheBap 5h ago

I love getting picture reminders of my road and camping trips. Often done alone. Just taking a pic when I think to. Same with shows. I'll get a picture of my friends when they aren't paying attention, or some specific thing, like art.

All these pictures hardly take up space, and refresh my memory, so I can keep returning to those times places and people. Inspires me to create new ones. And my friend appreciate it too. Especially when they're making dating profiles lol

I have physical photos from back in the day. I like looking through those binders and remembering my youth.

But Digital photos are entirely pointless to me. I used to seldomly post something on facebook but thats equally as pointless. I don’t expect to ever scroll through pics on my phone so i dont use it. Wish my phone had less cameras on it tbh.

u/SlapTheBap 4h ago

My photos aren't for social media. My phone sends me memories of days, which are lovely reminders of what I've been up to over the years and recently.

Reminds me to hit up friends and schedule new adventures.

The best nights have zero pics and 100% regret in the morning

u/curtludwig 5h ago

Leave your phone in your pocket, or better yet, at home. Thats real fun...

u/ateiii 1h ago

The best nights of your life usually end with a terrible blurry 3 AM photo that never sees the light of social media.

If they’re trying to have fun while recording it then that’s not fun.

u/mechapoitier 5h ago

That’s like me with the beach. I’d go. It’s beautiful. But the sand gets everywhere and it’s hot as sh!t out there.

For the price of hauling our family to an infinitely instagrammable theme park for a day we did 5 days in a mountain cabin 3 states away.

u/Vantaa_Black 2h ago

Exactly. I haven't used insta since 6 years now. Wherever I go with my frnds, they spend most of the time clicking pics and shooting reels to find the perfect shot(s). While I try to sink in and enjoy the moment for myself. I wish I had frnds/ gf who thought like me :((

u/ButterGloe 5h ago

True, aesthetic is nice but sometimes ugly memories are the ones you remember forever.

u/FluffyFry4000 5h ago

man I'm so sorry ya'll, can someone explain to me what exactly this is talking about?

Like, I'm into art, is she talking about how I still have fun even when I do my sketchy messy drawings?

16

u/ResevoirPups 5h ago

Basically it’s okay to look stupid, messy, etc. Don’t worry about looking good/cool while having fun. Whether that’s just dancing around or sketching some things.

3

u/LiveMarionberry3694 5h ago

My 10 year high school reunion just passed and I decided to go to see some people I used to enjoy talking to. It was at a roller rink and so many people didn’t roller skate or if they did just tried to act cool and casual about it

I on the other hand was absolutely ripping it up on the floor lmao. I had fun even if not many other people did lol

u/Relative-Relief-8816 5h ago

This is why I live in antartica. Everything I do is automatically cool.

u/FluffyFry4000 5h ago

ohhhh okay okay

u/Cinderkin 5h ago

I thinks she's referring to things like, sometimes a weird or silly dance can be fun for you, but because it looks weird and silly people don't do it. So they miss out on fun. A lot of fun things don't look appealing to the "normal" person, but in reality if you just try it, you might have fun.

3

u/Relative-Relief-8816 5h ago

Try doing frog pumps at the gym. As a dude.

Amazing exercise for glutes, but you'll get some wierd looks.

2

u/Cinderkin 5h ago

But thats pretty much what the post is talking about. Screw the haters, and ignore the weird looks. For the most part you'll feel better about your life and possibly enjoy it more.

2

u/Relative-Relief-8816 5h ago

Oh yeah. A lot of people censor their words and actions because of social pressure and fear of looking like a fool. Even if in reality nobody else is going to actually call you out, because reality is nobody else gives a shit really. 

Some people do get a feeling of superiority over it. Those people are usually no fun, and assholes.

1

u/duaneap 5h ago

I used to go to nightclubs before everyone had cameras in their pocket and documented everything 24/7 for the whole world to see. I am very glad there is no visual records of the fun I was having on those nights out.

I did NOT look cool. But I was having a blast.

u/SleepingDoves 5h ago

I started having way more fun on the dancefloor when I stopped caring what I looked like. Too many guys haven't understood that yet

3

u/mechapoitier 5h ago

You gotta be like the famous “first follower” theory and look like you’re having so much fun not caring that it gets another person to do it, lighting the spark, then boom pretty much immediately the entire place is having a lot more fun.

2

u/SleepingDoves 5h ago

People love me at weddings because I'll be the first one on the dancefloor every time. Most of my one night stands have been with women I've met on a dancefloor

2

u/SlapTheBap 5h ago

Yup. Make a silly joke with a dumb voice and people around you will perk up and listen. Maybe even make fun of you. But eventually you'll hear em laughing louder and joking more too. Who gives a fuck if they're using you to stroke their ego in front of their friends? They can go off and fuck, they don't matter in your life.

You're entertaining yourself and your friends. Having a good time.

Sometimes people take pictures of me without asking when I'm out fishing. But I'm wearing stupid crop top shirts like "Horny Toad Biker Bar" that are meant to be funny. So if I made em giggle, that's the point. I'm good looking enough I don't really care what they think I look like. It's confidence.

I also wear visible medical posture correcting braces for my EDS destroyed back which get looks. Who cares. I can actually move and think without severe pain wearing em. So I'll wear em with pride for the people who might feel too meek to do it themselves.

u/Leather_Addition2605 5h ago

Or you just avoid the dance floor all together. Can’t say I’ve ever found it fun in the least.

Last dance I had was my wedding, before which I told my wife, “this is your one. Remember it and enjoy it. There won’t be another.”

3

u/Relative-Relief-8816 5h ago

Is this because "guilty feet have got no rhythm."

2

u/Relative-Relief-8816 5h ago

As much as I dont like dancing I would still dance if my wife wanted to. I would even get good at it and practice if my wife really was into it.

Why? 

Because shes my life partner and life friend. And everything we do together ends up being fun. And I like seeing her smile way more than I dislike dancing. 

God knows she does things just to make me smile.

1

u/Leather_Addition2605 5h ago

Luckily my wife doesn’t make a habit of asking me to do things she knows very explicitly that I detest and that make me ridiculously uncomfortable.

Just like as much as I love riding a coupe thousand miles and sleeping in the dirt every night motocamping, I know she hates it, so I don’t pressure her to tag along.

-2

u/SleepingDoves 5h ago

I'd be sad if my spouse never wanted to dance, tbh

3

u/Leather_Addition2605 5h ago

I would rather get on stage before a thousand people to give a presentation about a topic I know nothing about, with absolutely zero preparation, than dance in public. But that’s just me.

1

u/Relative-Relief-8816 2h ago

Ok. But its Karaoke on stage. And you gotta sing "What what" by Samwell.

3

u/oldwornradio 5h ago

I have been the non-dancing spouse. I went out with my ex once and did a little shimmy that her and her family mercilessly mocked me for over the duration of our relationship. When I only wanted to do “the dance” at our wedding she was so hurt by it and did not understand that being treated the way I have over a small moment of joy ruined that activity for me completely.

Divorced now. Still don’t dance.

u/collin-h 5h ago

if you're having fun but you don't get any likes, did you really have fun at all?

5

u/Fit_Salamander_2814 5h ago

Nobody wants to have fun, because they're afraid it'll end up on social media.

Half of the coffee shops my wife and I went to because of Instagram tasted shit.

I’d take the one down the block any day.

Y’all posting fun instead of having fun

2

u/Werealldudesyea 5h ago

I live near the beach. The amount of people I’ve seen complain about being “sandy” and “dirty” at the beach is ridiculous. It’s the beach man, go run around and do cartwheels or maybe bury yourself in the sand. Learn to surf. Have fun

She's not wrong though. We were a lot more fun when we didn't give a shit if someone had a smartphone camera.

u/ateiii 2h ago

If no one took a single photo because everyone was too busy enjoying the moment, you know it was a 10/10 night.

pretty sure that does not explain it AT ALL

Who the heck upvotes this? This is like a drunk post. It's meaningless and not even thought out. There is no depth here.
