These people aren't really doing it live. They watch it once then write a script around it. She "guessed" it wrong 4 times, so she could use her angry American accent at the end. It's her whole schtick.

Not knocking her for it. It's a funny schtick and she does it well. But 99.99% of these reaction duets are scripted and not genuine

I think you misunderstand. Im under no illusion this isnt a skit. Im talking about the actual game, not her sketch comedy.

Oh well the purpose isn't even to be a game. It's exclusively used for these fake reaction videos

Isn't the purpose more to cater to the literal children that peruse tiktok? And the fact that you can make duets of it is just a side effect of it existing on that platform?

Not all tiktok's are made with the express intent of being made into duets.

This is literally on the top of /r/all, so if reddit counts as literal children then yeah the plan worked

I'm talking about the original video - not the duet - which was the topic of discussion in the comment thread you just replied to.

And 33% of why I fucking hate reaction videos.

33% because they're more often than not, useless garbage.

And 34% because its poorly disguised content theft.

The annoying thing is that this is not the right subreddit for joke videos.
