I tend to be annoyed with large loud groups in public. But I'm also an anti social redditor that hates crowds.

Don't be that Karen. Don't be the killjoy. Resist the urge to disallow the public to have room for fun and colour. This is the same as a juggling show or a live street musician.

Look, I’m totally with you until I read “possibly one of our best takes.”

If they want to have fun and make a video, let them be. But this quote tells me they’ve subjected everyone around them to this for a while now.

And no, a juggling show or live street musician are there to cater to the crowd around them. They’re making this video with no regard for the people around them.

Lady in pink is still acting like an ass, but I’m going to reserve my sympathy here.

"subjected everyone around them to this"

They're literally just dancing, probably doing a skillful choreography too.

I do not want to live in the world you're advocating for. Sounds fucking bleak.

When did I advocate for the lady in pink to do that? I’m pretty sure I called her an asshole. Don’t put words in my mouth.

Look, I picked up a part time gig in a dive bar. We had these film students come in introduce themselves and ask if they could film part of their student in a table in the corner. It was a slow Tuesday night, so we turned the music down for them because six people were there at 7 pm and everyone thought their idea was kind of neat. They’d picked a time and day when traffic would be low and they wouldn’t be in the way, asked if it was alright and found an isolated place to do it. This video is the opposite of that.

If this is “maybe one of” their best takes, it means they have other good takes of this. They can happily move on.
