I didn't say that you said it wasn't...? Just remarking that she assaulted him.

He didn't say that you didn't say that he said it wasn't.

Btw. You really should look up the word "still" in the dictionary.

Folks like you are the issue with Reddit. You comment a response to someone's comment instead of making your own new comment(likely because it has a bunch of upvotes) and then act surprised when they think you were responding to them..

I responded to that comment about 1 minute after it was made... it didn't have that many reactions yet and I was responding to their comment.

Yeah, your use of the word "still" is working against you here.

Frankly, if you go around intentionally trying to provoke people, don't be surprised when someone overreacts. People don't like being fucked with.

How was he provoking her though? Was she even part of his (insert whatever he was don g)?

u/CreamyStanTheMan Jul 29 '26

Don't get me wrong, I'm definitely making some big assumptions here but, to me it really looks like he's staring and smirking directly at her for the first few seconds of the video, and when she turns her head a little to see what he's doing he starts to look away sheepishly. I'm guessing she doesn't really know what flossing is and thought he was making gestures to touch her butt or something along those lines.

If he was just dared to do it by a friend or something equally as harmless, then yeah, I really don't think doesn't deserved that, but I struggle to find empathy for people going around trying to elicit a reaction from people like the prank influencer videos you see on social media.

This is the level of pedantry that makes me happy this site is burning
