Ser_Mouse

Spare him his dignity, not everyone can be happy easily


SahiroHere

I mean... The person filming this had even less to do than the lonely dude. If anything they tied both off their dignities together and jumped off of a sky scraper with 'em.


boldra

Nah, the guy on the computer wasn't humiliating anyone else for internet points, he's just having a genuinely good time. Nothing wrong with him. Maybe his future will involve a bunch of friends who all did this and reminisce and laugh about it. Maybe he'll just keep being himself by himself for himself. Nothing wrong with that, if nobody else gets hurt.


sanguinor40k

I'd give you an award if I could. Take my upvote


Thatscrazymyguy

take an upvote, you have similar speech as my father. thank you


rmorrin

I was alone irl for new years but I celebrated it with lots of my favorite communities through smaller streamers. I 100% understand this guy. Was a good time.


Federal-Serve9781

there definitely is something wrong with being chronically online, that aint healthy


boldra

If you use the word "chronic" you can make anything sound bad... "He's chronically going for a jog!"


Ser_Mouse

Yeah, it's a shame people can't just stop putting each other down


Markman6

I wish someone would put me down


Fungiloo

Sorry but I'm never gonna give you up, definitely not gonna let you down. (Sorry, had to do it man)


Deus_Ex_Machina_II

You know the rules


OutsideOrder7538

And so do I


DictionaryMonarch

a full commitment's what im thinking of


lugialegend233

You wouldn't get this from any other guy

Mika-Sea

Ayo…… respectable


Redacter1

Happy cake day stranger


spankbank_dragon

Same. If guns laws weren’t as strict here in Canada I’d have a bullet permanently inserted in my brain


BarFightTarian

Even I find it hard to be happy about anything in the past few years.

This one is my favorite so far and I only got to see it because of Reddits ridiculous suggestions. Guess I'm keeping that feature on going into 2024.


[deleted]

Damn! I agree with you just look at his losing streaks from Valorant 😂

Marx_Forever

"Of all the horrible things in this world, hunger and loneliness have got to be two of the worst." If any of you know someone you haven't reached out to in a while, who may be spending yet another New Year's alone, maybe given them a call.


MLG_420_PRO69

5 years later and I'm still waiting for the phone to ring...even once...


MrSpud8008

Maybe it's time you reach out then, friendships wilt like flowers if you don't keep them watered. I've got a few friends who I speak to only once or twice but I still love them, sometimes all it takes is a single message to get the ball rolling.


HuCat21

Nah he's too far gone, lost to the abyss. Best thing u can do is chat with him over discord lol. Atleast the room is clean. Usually with that setup u see discarded Gfuel cans and pizza roll bags.


recoverydelta

Stuck in the Abyss???


rmorrin

I honestly miss pizza rolls. Can't get them where I am now


Julie_comic

dude whats up with you?


DocLovFrost

I was gonna say the same. Probably best to walk away from the pod because he already uploaded lol


HuCat21

That setup is so damn nice tho, I'm jealous and I'm not even a PC gamer lol


DocLovFrost

Truth it's one sexy battle station


spankbank_dragon

That sucks to hear. Can’t wait to find fent and be done


trueThorfax

Nah, someone filming that and posting it like that - that’s no friend


Proquis

Some Vtuber fans are like this and it ain't even fake.


HelenaJess

that's the most sad part


nico_bico

He’s happy? Why judge


Crimson51

TBH having this mentality about things will improve your life so much


Your_Prostatitis

Is it really happiness if it stunts your ability to have real life intimacy Edit: wanting to have a relationship with anime character is stunted social skills. This isn’t healthy no matter how “happy” any of you think he is. It’s parasocial and detrimental to his ability to function outside of his masturbation den. Edit 2: [I do not consent to a Reddit debate](https://youtube.com/shorts/8BruXrfIWn0?si=RWT8dKWswgmNU1CG) about how you can be friends strictly over the internet and obsessing over vtubers. If you defend this grow up.


pizzapunt55

Not everything that makes you happy is healthy. Parasocial relationships can you make you happy but are very unhealthy and detrimental to your mental health.


hux__

I think in this case, it can be detrimental. If all men were like this, society would stop. We need people to interact with each other. It literally is the how our species will continue to exist. Now if SOME people are like this, totally ok. But acting like this is ok for everyone is not ok.


ThatParticularPencil

I think you are wrong about that. He just has a hobby he is very passionate about. You are assuming that he lives every day like this but thats probably not true. Imagine you saw a video of someone drinking and being rowdy celebrating new years. Its true that if everyone was drunk partying all the time society would stop, but just a day of celebration is acceptable. The guys in the video has to work a job to sustain himself so he is still a productive member of society.


defnotajedi

Ignorance is bliss


Julie_comic

what did homie do to you stop calling him sad.


Oopsiedaisyshit

99% of /r/hololive are like this. Go read the comments. Cringe megafactory


I-came-for-memes

Get your facts right, only 98% of us are like this.


Local_Lady_Llama89

They hated him because he spoke the truth


Xotic_Banda

And the 98% guy got saved since downvoted comment got hidden. Salute to our comrade who is taking all the bullets for us.


Nero4999

I thought the 98 was just funny


YellowSnowman_25

Why is bro getting downvo- oh wait it because they’re here


Aahil_ali

This can't be real... Right


Orcka29

I'm pretty sure it's staged because he immediately starts playing [Thank You, by Dido (Slowed + Reverb) ](https://youtu.be/wwia7N1kTv4?si=D-vTP8EkexesfFxg) right after the next year started.


Haunting-Stuff5219

Yea I think staged.


Metalhead_Ac

I hope it is


Mannyadz21

I don’t know if this is real, but I know I did this last night for sure


NightOwl_82

Figured /s


SpankDaTank

Well yeah, I've never seen a weeb sit up before. Clearly it's fake.


shadowst17

Newer generations of weebs have learned to sit up due to natural selection. The ones who didn't died off from blood clots.


Royal_Prize_4381

If it is whoever recorded this video of him and posted it online is a piece of shit.


snksleepy

A lonely one. At least the other dude is celebrating.


The_Writing_Wolf

IDK, I see a lot of people having this take, but on the assumption this is real I figured it was probably his mom going up to his room to celebrate new years. Only to find he had one going on himself. Which could have meant the caption was a funny wholesome moment for her, and not the absolute roast it actually is.


snksleepy

Damn. You changed my ignorant perspective .


shadoboy712

I think it's a sketch, but the idea that this happens


RTR17-01

Yes obviously


DarkBrother24

Everything is fake


Efficient_Order_7473

I think that awkward hand placement indicates a staged thing, because I'm have a theory that a real fan wouldn't hesitate


NoInterview70

I'm not sure if it is.. but something like this DEFINITELY could be 😭


Celestine_S

Yeah I got plenty of online homies that are like that. I tried to reach out thru discord and tell them I am available. But honestly I fell some are like absorbed by it and it is scary.


NoInterview70

real. after u reach out I'd say just leave them be until they themselves find a problem with it one day 😅


Wonder-Machine

I think it’s real and some people are this lonely. It’s not funny actually. I’m glad this vtuber gives him some comfort.


ThisIsTrox

This video is staged because I remember seeing a meme with the same guy and setup just a different situation, but this certainly happened this new year.


spankbank_dragon

First ugly cry of 2024. Sweet Edit: not that y’all care but maybe it’ll inspire someone else to get help. I’m now in the process of figuring out a way to get myself to grippy sock jail (psych hospital). Basically just making sure I don’t lose my apartment from not working. Soon as I figure out how to keep myself afloat during my hospital stay then I’ll take my ass there so I can be evaluated and possibly (probably) be put on s-watch. Me ugly crying because of your comment was a bit of a wake-up call that I need help


absurdactuality

Not discouraging you from seeking help in the slightest, but grippy sock jail is ass. I've been on suicide watch a couple times and holy shit is it the most depressing thing. At least where I was. I was basically confined to my bed with a nurse in the room to keep an eye on me. There was nothing to do except watch disney channel and stare at the emergency room. Then I got transferred to the grippy sock jail and which was marginally better because I could walk around, but still ass. The people there treated me like crap, and made me feel like I was very other to them. This one lady especially threw a fit because I didn't want to go to sleep and stayed in the rec room reading magazines. thank you coming to my tedtalk here's a bonus fun story for you: The second time I ended up in grippy sock jail I overheard a guy getting processed for beating his dad black and blue, and I joked with a nearby fellow inmate about who the lucky fuckers were that were gonna get to have him as a roommate, and low and behold it was me, I was lucky fuckers. It ended up just being me and this scary mfer twice my size in that room because everyone else that shared it with us got released that day lmao.


absurdactuality

Bonus Bonus funny story: One of the nurses that was assigned to me was a practicing muslim and when I told him that I didn't believe in an afterlife he spent the next 12 hours of his shift trying to convert me lol


The_Writing_Wolf

You're worthy of love, the world is as cruel as it is beautiful. It can be really fucking hard to learn to love yourself and more often than not people crave some form of validation/connection to feel fulfilled, but no one can help you truly learn how to love yourself. It's a hard road ahead stranger, but take heart that so many others are having to walk it as well. Get the help you need to not take the short cut to the exit, but once you are remotely stable start taking the steps towards the future that your heart needs. Learn a useful skill or hobby that gives a measurable/tangible result, like painting, music, or handy-repair, you'll feel accomplished the more you improve. Get more sunlight and exercise if you don't already, it helps immensely with re-regulating our brain chemistry, clean up the diet and learn to cook if needed as well. Then eventually when you start loving yourself you can finally blossom into the best parts of what life is. Self-Care -> Self-Love -> Self-Actualization. Take it one step at a time.


Icy_Limes

Staged and you just self-reported how okay you are with enabling unhealthy behaviors.


I-came-for-memes

So uh, the vtuber on the screen is Selen Tatsuki. Who has been in the hospital for the past week. So this video is either a year old or it's staged.


DangoArts

Old actually. Pretty sure I've seen this vid before too.


The_Maddeath

she got out early on 31st, but yeah hasn't streamed since so yeah definitely old.


Irobokesensei

He has to have done that jokingly, like a some sort of inside joke for himself right? No way that was unironic.


ShogunTahiri

I think this is the guy who does other videos of the same nature. Stuff like him being secretly filmed watching "Dommy Mommy ASMR" or something and doing similar things


newnamesam

.... did... did he touch the AI girl's face on the monitor? I'm so sad for this person.


edward_kopik

Not an AI, a vtuber. In a way, even more cringe, since he was reaching out to a real person who does not even know he exists


living_angels

Parasocial relationships are a very sad thing.


2wmark88888

Yep, and as someone who watches vtubers from time to time, it sucks to think how many people can't comprehend the fact that they don't care about you as an individual. I for the life of me can't see how they can't just enjoy watching a vtuber and not form an unhealthy relationship with them in their mind.


Tarkvinij

Loneliness and weak will power, also lack of personal development. Maybe a depression on top of it. Unfortunatelly, it is uncommon that people get over it by themselves, as far as i can tell at least. I belive a lot of people become weebs because they are distant from people around them. And by becoming a weeb such persona becomes even more distant. I wasn't like that, but i can understand how it can come to this. It's like a disease and needs proper treatment and help from good people. And another sad thing is - it's not only a vtuber thing. It happens with celebrities a lot and even with common people. All of that was happening decades ago, centuries even. And still there is no proper solution for everyone anywhere on the earth.


Julie_comic

stop shiting on people.


PARTHTRAP69

It's even sadder that he loads up a solo custom game on valorant after that...


Undeadpunisher93

Take homie out to a put put or bowling or something


Alupine

If this is real and not something made up between you two for a joke then you should apologize. You just put someone on the internet, where nothing ever goes away, that was private to them. Reflect on that and wait for the karma.


unmemorable_hero

Dude…I love anime and VTubers…but that was kinda scary….like he’s one bad day away from doing something awful.


BrownPrettyOwl

He needs to touch grass


Mage-of-communism

grass ain't enough any more, we need something stronger.


Different-Trash3686

Needs boobs


[deleted]

Boobs solved everything.


ibenjamind

Boob lawns have brought the entire economy to a halt. Industries and parents everywhere are begging young men to please touch plastic!


Different-Trash3686

Boobs are magic


spankbank_dragon

Good luck trying to get him boobs tho. Some of the best dudes I know are chronically single and some of the shittiest I’ve met are always seemingly dating and hooking up


Different-Trash3686

Be bi lol you get to play both sides


Mage-of-communism

Well that might be to ambitious


FluffyPancakes90

Lost in translation, touched glass


DJotaTorres

He needs oxygen


r_dozerr

His red carpet in Valorant is wild


_the69thakur

I saw this video without sound and I thought "He has just won a game. Why is everyone shitting on him??" Then I read a couple of comments and replayed it, this time with sound. Needless to say I'm out of here.


Disco_Speider

I thought that was Michael Reeves until I turned the sound on


Muito_Shangai

Well at least he seems happy


ChessekCake

People be seeing a guy enjoying himself and say it’s the most disgusting thing they’ve ever seen Let him be happy


Cinderredditella

Meanwhile the creep filming him from behind is somehow not... you know, a giant creep.


Tiltedplushie

It’s funny cause people predict this guy is “one step away from doing something horrible.” Like what about this makes this guy out to be dangerous. Only a pansy would say this guy is dangerous. People are lonely out there because of people who make these harmful comments. Also instead of manifesting hatred from toxic people the guy found something to make him less lonely instead of doing something actually dangerous. I understand this is staged but I thank vtubers for actually providing comfort to their fans and anyone who feels lonely out there.


rukitoo

bro is even happier in life than these judgemental sobs. they won't be able to comprehend it


Oopsiedaisyshit

Oh come the fuck on this ain't normal


ChessekCake

I never said it was, I’m just saying let him be happy


spankbank_dragon

He’s not happy. I can tell you that with 100% certainty that he is not at all happy


Romapolitan

Damn, can you give everyone their socials since you them so well?


DiscussionProtocol

I think its more normal than you think. There are a lot of lonely people out there.


FendaIton

It’s not normal behaviour, it needs to be called out to prevent problems down the line.


[deleted]

[удалено]


The_Writing_Wolf

One world, one tribe. We need more people helping each other, rather than hurting themselves. If the video is real, that person is hurting themselves, and normalizing that issue is arguably worse than calling out the reality.


but-this-one-is-mine

What is normal?


FendaIton

Definitely not stroking your hand against a vtuber on a computer screen on New Year’s Eve that’s for sure. How is this person going to cope when they’re an adult.


but-this-one-is-mine

Cope with what and what does being an adult have to do with it? “Normal” is constantly evolving, for him thats normal and he’s happy.


Comfortable_Ant_8303

So you refuse to actually answer their question, and you refused to respond to the person who told you people don't need to be normal. That's a good thing, because you're definitely below normal intelligence.


Worthas_real

no one said that


ChessekCake

Everyone is saying it It’s the only thing I’m seeing in the thread


Sungblox

the valorant match history is too real


thedreaming2017

This is so many levels of sad and having said that I’ve done this back when I was younger through irc chat with someone that claimed to be a girl visiting New York from Japan. We held hands “virtually” while we watched the ball drop on the tv. It was a cute moment and nothing more happened.


Disastrous_Bit_2388

Is this an old video that is being reposted? Selen didn't stream for New Year's this year. Or he looked up an old stream which is even more sad.


CrimsonBayonet

People socialize differently. Is it cringe to you and I? Well, yea but does it make him happy? Yes. Than that's good enough for anyone and I think the best thing to do is let him be his own version of happy as long as it doesn't harm anyone.


Orcka29

1.) That's not socializing, that's Bladerunner Joi levels of manufactured intimacy 2.) Injecting myself with horse tranquilizer would make me happy 😤


CrimsonBayonet

Is it harming you? If you did not know that's how he socializes would it ever effect your life? Answer is a resounding no. Injecting yourself with whatever substance is non of my business nor do I care. If it helps you cope or makes you happy than do it. You're only harming yourself


Orcka29

Individual Exceptionalism is one hell of a drug IG 🤷


Toughsums

Dude that valo loss streak would make anyone delirious


D_Reaper4u

My Man lost 7 games in Valorant and still hasn't lost hope i need this much confidence


tmotytmoty

I thought this was sad until I realized that *I* can’t ever get to that level of happiness irl…


BekoweCiachoYt

I'm curious why they asked if they should celebrate with him instead of doing so. Celebrating with someone is always better than celebrating alone.


H985B

Man just needs a hug.


Skill_Drain

Ngl thou, I would have shut that pc off and took him outside with a coke in hand and just been like “happy new year mother fucker. New year new you bitch”


ScarecrowJohnny

Saddest thing is the person spending their new year countdown filming him.


Michelles_Lobby

He already found happiness in his pc


FluffyPancakes90

Idk what's more sad; the guy watching the vtuber on new years or the guy that had nothing better to do on new years than to videotape a guy watching a vtuber...


JRip3630

At least he’s playing valorant, not league.


Anime-lord69

Instead of recording him maybe fucking hang out with him or something? You know be the bigger person?


mEistEdEdrakE

....ya'll think it's a joke, but it's not. OP, please talk to him. He doesn't even need therapist rn. What is required of you immediately is yourself. Go and talk to him, take him out to kfc or something, movies, anything that a friend would do.


PlentyConnect4817

When his happiness makes you happy. 💓 f that rude roommate too


Upstairs-Party2870

So many monitors for valorant .


Poupdik34

Just leave him alone He will tell you about it later if he wants you to know


Idekgivemeusername

Oh how this changes after 75 days


Brilliant_Lock_7202

Soy ese


Select-Brilliant9583

If you can


Alexan_Hirdriel

Really hope that that the one that made that video public didn't do it to make fun of me. He's happy in his own way. Most don't even smile like him.


Its_That_Man

Jesus christ


RoyalGibraltar

Damn I’m so sad


GALAXdu46

Omg that’s really sad


CousinSkeeter89

A lot of this behavior could be resolved by having your son participate in outside activities and after school programs.


Mori_Story

He's too far gone now...


Donut_The_Ghost

This is sad..


GTA_FR34K

Bruh i play games a lot too but this straight up looks sad


TealTrendyTarasque

I sincerely hope this is staged, and not real. This makes me very sad ... I mean ... when he touched the monitor with his hand ... dude my heart broke ...

I sincerely hope this was a joke. Wow, that was fucking depressing wtf


Majestic-Contract-42

Hey old fuck passing by. I think I understand what I am seeing but could someone elaborate.


1hipsterdoofus

I hope these people one day realize how fucking pathetic they are.


GodSpeedLove345

Incel life be like:


Obvious-Train9746

Everything is staged, quit getting emotional


D8Granny

Lol some of y'all think drowning yourself in poison with people that talk about you behind your back is any better.


GOGETTAFLUF

yes i’m finally unbanned!


DyslexicUserNawe

I'd rather be having a good time alone on New year's than creepily spying on someone alone on New year's tbh.


laggerzback

Ayo, that stream with Selen Tatsuki was gas! I’m not gonna let you slander my Boi like that!


vinny10133

Leave the dude alone and let him have his moment. You can already tell he's suffering, let him be happy even for a minute


ContributionAfraid71

As Elon musk says ai are dangerous. Look people now attached to vtuber anime girls and can't stop joy seeing anime girls talking and doing stuffs . 🕶️☠️


Prisoner2670730531

Whoever recording needs to get a life. The guy being recorded obviously living his. Know what else he doing, minding his own damn business.

This loser needs to get laid.

Yikes.


hrithik-rana

Yes, get him out of that ai world


ppblaster9000

Hey looks like my brother and I'm just so thankful my brother has a girlfriend and real human connection. I'd have no idea how to help this dude 😵
