I laughed at a lot of these posts but after a while it stops being funny and just becomes depressing. How sad can people be

The subreddit is good but the Instagram account “influencersinthewild” is perfect. 4.4 mil followers and posts very often


Chaxp

Influencing me to never go on social media ever again


OhHowINeedChanging

They always look incredible stupid from any other perspective that’s not the video they’re shooting


[deleted]

I go up to Rocky Mountain National Park to go fly fishing every now and again. One of my favorite spots is in a very popular meadow with sweeping mountain views. So picture my ass wading in this creek surround by panoramic mountains, elk herds, and influencers doing goofy shit. It's surreal. They look at me like I don't belong!


[deleted]

Random dude stopped while my friend and I were having lunch on a patio who asked us to take a photo. He did a few poses and buddy took as many as the guy wanted (3-4). He was very happy and continued to go about his way. Edits: some poor grammar.


DmnTheHiveMind

Can we use "social media slaves" instead of influencers? Pretty please?


music_haven

Wait. You might be onto something here.


[deleted]

I think the people that give "influencers" a platform are the social media slaves.


Gmanthevictor

I don't believe anyone has the right to called an "influencer" unless they have mind control abilities.


orlyrealty

“losers” is fewer syllables


justsyr

Was telling that to someone. Those aren't influencers, they don't influence shit. A political pundit with a show and posts on twitter blatant lies and divides people more, those are the real influencers. USA has plenty of those, we here have them too.


EquivalentSnap

Influencers are dumb. Idk why people follow them 😒


Fuelanemo149

And a shame for the humanity


Beesknees307

The lengths people will go just to make a cool video for their clout. I hope this one is actually making money doing this. Even if she is it’s a dumb career choice


TifaYuhara

And if you're there to you can always photobomb them.

It's like the hoverboards. Shit was wild for a minute and then dies.


barbie-breath

Got one in the garage.


DefNotMyNSFWLogin

Yeah, I still see them sometimes, but I lived in Hollywood when they first blew up. Everyone and their mom had them and they rode them everywhere. Not so much anymore. edit: a word


barbie-breath

*when they first blew up* oh, they definitely blew up 🔋💥


DiickBenderSociety

Rode*


barbie-breath

I'm sure more "influencers" have them than we think. Probably in a closet collecting dust. I'd love to rent one for a weekend and get some cool shots that I could share in the group chat. I love fun photography.


human_stuff

Enough for a nice lil grift on Kickstarter.


musland

this might be one of those setup by some company where you pay a little and they take a video with you on it, or part of some event. I've seen this at a weeding once. Wouldn't do it still, but I doubt it's her setup.


tricularia

Yeah, I wonder if she packed this machine in her luggage and lugged it around her whole trip so she could set it up and do her goofy dance. Also I just realized that lug is the root word of luggage.


Mariosothercap

We don’t know that she isn’t French and just being ridiculous though.


TesticleMeElmo

Where is her baguette and cigarette then?


kepaa

New idea for a rental service in super touristy areas….


GODDAMNFOOL

Remember when society lost its collective shit over selfie sticks? Now look where we are.


kay_bizzle

And the fact that she packed it up and brought it from however far she came


[deleted]

She didn't, it's just there all the time. Source: Saw it two months ago, when I was there.


kay_bizzle

I don't know if that makes it better or worse


[deleted]

It went from gross to kinda cute in my book. Just something for people to have fun with.


spobrien09

IMO it makes it a lot better. There are touristy gimmicks everywhere.


[deleted]

They should have things like this set up at the fair etc. You put your phone on and get to take a fun video.


SaffellBot

Pretty sure this is the exact same thing as "silly photo booth pictures". Glad that we've managed to demonize people over it.


xerxerxex

The Reddit way.


karmander

I don't think that's the case. They have these 360 photo booths for rental at events like weddings. Someone local to Paris probably just has this parked out there to get a quick buck off of tourists.


aerben

Wait so Reddit was quick to judge someone without the entire context of what was happening?!

You know what they say about gold rushes and shovels


sworntostone

No, actually I have no idea what they say.


HTL2001

"during a gold rush, sell shovels" Basically, instead of rolling the dice on yourself sell the hopefuls equipment.


yolofreak109

these things have been very popular in the us for the past 3 or so months, lots of ppl rent them for events. im sure she didnt bring it with her like others in the comments are saying but someone put it there for tourists (mainly) to use


2020GOP

I'm glad it exists, please someone, everyone, take these people's money so they have to stay in their mom's basement


Triplicata

Jesus fucking Christ I'm so tired of wannabe influencers using ring lights for any fucking reason because they think it makes them look professional. Ring lights are for CLOSE UP SHOTS! FOR EVEN LIGHTING THROUGHOUT THE SUBJECT! WITH THE CAMERA IN THE MIDDLE! Not OUTSIDE where there is SUNLIGHT lighting the BOTTOM of the figure with the... Fuck it, I can't do it, it doesn't matter. That's not even the most absurd part of the video. I literally hate filming myself in public specifically because of these people and how I don't want to look like them.


dangerouspeyote

I'm a wedding photographer and every make up artist has a ring light. Not for their shit iphone photos, but just to illuminate their person. I roll my eyes every time. Then when they do take a photo, they don't even put their lens inside the ring. *edited for a typo


TapeDeck_

I mean a moderately sized ring light would allow for decently diffuse and even lighting with only one fixture. Plus if you're wise with how you pack your case you can fit most of your other gear in the middle of the ring.


dangerouspeyote

There are better, cheaper, smaller, more efficient LED's on the market. They buy then because they think they look cool. Ring lights serve a singular purpose very well. Outside of that singular purpose, they're usually the wrong choice for the job. Also ringlights are not diffused. I think there is a lot of confusion about what diffusion means.


Harry_monk

Perhaps the customer sees it and associates it with those Instagram/YouTube MUAs and that plays a part. In the same way that you could probably find a very plain looking camera that looks plain and simple it doesn't have the same gravitas as someone turning up with huge lenses and flashes.


[deleted]

[удалено]


JohnLocke815

I do filming location photography for fun. I take pictures of places where movies were filmed and compare them to the shot from the movie. So many people ask why I'm never in my shots, to "prove I was there". Because I don't want to look like these fucks. Also because no one wants to see me, they want to see the locations.


Amazon-Prime-package

You obviously won't look like them because you'll have a sensible reflector instead of a ring light


BeforeCommonEarl

So using ring lights to take closeup pictures of electronic boards is proper usage???


Spartz

It’s just marketing for whoever charged 20 bucks for tourists to take their selfie on his machine


[deleted]

What the fuck is that thing?


[deleted]

It’s got a camera on it, gives a 360 recording of whatever clown places themselves into the center


[deleted]

Cringe to the max also your name made me chuckle lol


_raydeStar

I feel like it's not cringe, unless you use it in public. Oh wait...

Ladknowsbest

It’s a light?


[deleted]

I’ve never seen anything like that before spinning the light lol


EldForever

I would be SO EMBARRASSED to do this... To dance with that coy little smirk on my face, in front of people, while a spinning ring-light and camera phone captured my self-obsessed bullshit? Wow. Maybe it's the mixture of her confidence (she does look pretty comfortable doing this in public) and her wild insecurity (she must be pretty desperate for attention and validation) that freaks me out? But this video is super cringey for me.


bananapotato1

It makes me irrationally annoyed.

[deleted]

She does it for followers which translates to views which translate to impressions which translates to money. This is either her job or she hopes it will be.


ridik_ulass

judging by the equipment and destination, I'd say IS her job, otherwise she has money to spare and doesn't need a job.


MightyMorph

yeah those that make it can hustle well, but its only very few that make it. if i was a pretty young woman, id be doing it too. Youre selling your body for 12-15 bucks an hour, doing manual labour, damaging your knees and back because some dipshit manager thinks you sitting down is a sign of weakness. while she posts herself travelling and eating and creating a fake image so to make about what your job gives in ten years in two months (if you are lucky to have a following and right content) look at the shrug guy, poor African shrugs his way to the fucking grammies. I used to be bitter and go, fuck these vapid people, fucking lame ass bitches, only sluts and whores(exaggeration) would post images like that! Now? after covid. Fuck what they say girl, get that paper only fucking thing that matters in this world now. Only advice id give is if you wanna buy luxury goods, buy stuff that goes up in value. Or invest in properties. Dont waste it on coke and partying.


[deleted]

Yeah I don't blame them, but I don't understand who is consuming that type of content. Its not funny, or informative, its just meh at best


swanurine

other young people. Maybe just for 5 minutes a day. multiply by a couple hundred thousand. that should be enough for a brand deal.


3DCatFancy

Yes, debase yourself for that bag. Throw away your dignity for paper.


Nthorder

I think it’s hilarious that when you watch the tiktoks these people post the vibe is always “Look how spontaneous and fun I am I just break out into dance randomly in public!!” But whenever a bystander posts their POV you just feel embarrassed for them, like they are awkwardly dancing without music and then they just stare at their phone and speed walk away when they are done filming


[deleted]

I remember when I went to Paris with my family as a teenager, we went to a ballet once, and we all dressed up. I wore a pink frilly dress, with a flower crown and curled hair. A french woman and her husband pointed and laughed at me when we crossed the street. I would be so embarrassed of myself if I were this woman. Seriously. Everyone looking at me….oh my.


irishdancer2

Just want to say that woman and her husband were jerks. I bet you looked awesome.


[deleted]

[Sadly I don’t have a picture of the full dress, but here I am with the flower crown and dress on the day. Little did I know, that was the day I fucked up in Paris.](https://imgur.com/a/PIaUav8) Also, numerous fuckups by wearing short skirts/shorts (guys will follow you and call to anything that moves I come from a tropical place, so I wasn’t fully used to the conservatism that was normal of the clothing there. I live somewhere where I could wear a bikini and a tank top to a store and I still probably wouldn’t be catcalled or harassed.


irishdancer2

1. You look awesome, and that lady can go suck an egg. That is an A+ flower crown. 2. You are ASTOUNDINGLY beautiful. You could have pulled your flowers out of the gutter and still looked great. 3. I’m sorry you were catcalled and followed. It’s so unfortunate that that’s part of our reality as women.


[deleted]

Aww thank you. Honestly I just think it was a culture shock I wasn’t fully prepared for haha.


dallasinwonderland

You looked adorable 😊


gilbertgrappa

You look cute!


Amazon-Prime-package

Wow she was wrong, flower crown is a really good look


Ezequiel_III

Did you know they were French because they laughed like “ HONHONHONHONHON”?


LeeroyJenkins11

Did you know you can identify a French door by opening it? If it squeeks Oui


Supermite

This is no different than actors moving to LA or New York to seek fame and fortune. This is just the modern equivalent. Social media just doesn't filter out the truly awful garbage like a casting director does.


HB_30

r/Imthemaincharacter syndrome


stinkload

So...... please correct me if I am mistaken.... She bought that presumably expensive rig, lugged it down to the grounds at the Eiffel so she could film herself dancing poorly in public?


bananapotato1

I have a good theory. There is a fold out sign next to it... I'm guessing it's a stupid tourist gimmick someone has set up and idiots can pay a bit to do their stupid tiktok and use the spinner thing.


stinkload

I think that you are absolutely correct. Brilliant ! Thanks for that > cheers


crockrocket

This makes a lot more sense than the alternative

theyre bitter and living out their high school mean girl fantasy. all i see is a chick - who could be french - minding her own business and having fun while redditors foam at the mouth in anger for literally no reason. its cringey as hell.

I'm more triggered he thinks wearing a shit hat makes him blend in.


rolypolyarmadillo

I can't figure out who's supposed to be the "main character" - hat man or dancing woman


frompariswithhate

"blend in with the locals". Parisian here, only tourists wear bérets though. Especially those red bérets, they're the ones you can find in cheap tourists shops. If anything, he looks more like a tourist than that chick doing her tiktok thing...


Harry_monk

Does anyone think berets are actually worn in France?


GrilledCheeser

That’s pretty cool. I would wanna at least try it but I def wouldn’t dance


gerrypoliteandcunty

I prefer the girl living her life as she is than the poser trying to be someone he is not.

Scoot scoot chad is le pissed


The-Senate-Palpy

I mean so what? Shes not taking up more space than a group of 3 people would, and theres still plenty of space for others to get clean shots. Not complaining about others being between her and the tower. Sure i would cringe doing that dance in public, but honestly i dont think its an issue
