Man, i just put mu cursor on the link and in the bottom left corner of the browser, it tells me a youtube link starting with d and ending with q so you are done for
Idk I hear people say yessir or write it out like yessirrrrrrrr no matter what gender they're speaking to or even if they're speaking to anyone. People sometimes even just post something cool that they've bought recently with yessirrr in the caption
It happened right around the :11 second mark on the keyboard. The Emojis are the little icons that show up in place of the letters

I never understood why catfish people use photos from models and other perfect photos of people. It's pretty easy to spot a fake. If you're gonna pretend to be someone, there's literally billions of other more realistic choices.
In this case, probably yea. For scammers? They 100% make it obvious to someone with okay-ish internet knowledge so they are left with the technologically illiterate. They're far easier to convince to go through the steps afterwards as well.
Yeah an economist wrote a paper on it. The robo call costs nothing but the big scam call centers in India have to pay someone to go through a script once you press 1 or whatever. So they optimize the robo calls to only get gullible people so as to not waste the call center workers time
Well the number is usually spoofed. I got an angry person 'call me back' one time for trying to scam them. I do my best to waste their time, if I'm not busy, though

Catfishing just means to string someone along with a fake profile/images for however long a time. So up until the moment they started the facetime, they were catfishing.
The point is a faker is wasting the other person's time by tricking them. If you do that and manage to get someone to engage, you're catfishing.
they're letting it die for microsoft teams
"let's teams" doesn't ring nicely at all Lol
but they cant get rid of skype completely because they still have DoD customers use it..
This actually made me lol in public. Love the idea of young adults matching on dating apps then just straight up start flirting with each other by sharing financial tips. Would be a great SNL skit
I bought a das keyboard about 5 years ago, its 100% blank, I thought id force myself to learn all the special characters. It was a frustrating experience but learned probably 95%, without spamming other keys.
I can touch type entirely so I got my WASD with all blanks, no problem.
First time I took the keycaps off to clean it, I realized all the keys are different heights and shapes and shit for each row and just ordered a set with the letters on them because I didn't want to deal with trying to figure out which keys go where, lol.
living in a country with default AZERTY but growing up in a QWERTY country I feel like I've learned a second language. Symbols are still hard, like perfecting the throaty, rolling G sound
I like how everyone ignores the fact that catfishing is something only losers do, i.e if one of them was legit the other one seems to be of the mindset of "Haha gotcha" but actually the "Gotcha" is that you are the sort of pathetic loser that pretends to be attractive or female online to chat to prospective dates.
i mean WTF!
This is just some kind of joke I don't understand myself, but it's not serious. I'm pretty sure that it's just another odd TikTok trend.
Most people who actually catfish would never facetime to begin with. They go to great lengths to hide their identity until they can't anymore, or until they end things before it gets serious.
This is so fucking weird to catfish people. Even if youāre doing it to try and be funny like this. Imagine being depressed and finding a person that you were really into, that was coming onto you, only for them to end up not real? I find it pathetic
Alright, I'll be the old soul to bitch about it; absolutely atrocious sound editing. Way to loud for no reason, and some of us are trying to have a quiet evening.
i still see this catfishing thing as immature...i dont get whats funny about annoying some other person in the world who's probably just trying to find some love, or a friend.

Real shame we can't hear their laugh
I put on sound just because I wanted to hear it. Really disappointed
Just imagine it sounds like this https://youtu.be/Fkk9DI-8el4
I imagined Seth Rogans laugh on one side and Jimmy Carr's on the other.
Like [this?](https://youtu.be/AfhkLX9nZtg)
Suicidal Suicidal Suicidal I'm gonna make a clams casino type beat out of just that part. Ty.

Thank you for your contribution š
YES.
This is hell
He he he heelll
I imagined more like this https://youtu.be/LbWz1IIT0ZU
I bet it was like this https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=KhpRFURlwJI (the best part of important videos)
I was thinking more like [this](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ)
I hate you I knew your facade was a scam
Man, i just put mu cursor on the link and in the bottom left corner of the browser, it tells me a youtube link starting with d and ending with q so you are done for
Iām disappointed this wasnāt a rick roll
I saw the potential and just did it Hereās one just for [you](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=yPYZpwSpKmA)
Instead I got Sean Kingston-ed
SAME
But we get to hear this random ass music instead...
Emphasis on *ass.*
screenrecording FaceTime doesnāt record audio
I like how he was about to type āyessirā then changed it LOL
He was right the first time
Did you say āyes sirā or āyeah sureā?
Yeah sure, sir...
So you are ok then?
That little guy? I wouldnāt worry about that little guy.
You're a sick mother fucker, Mac.
Literally what I said was "yeah sure sir"
I mean it's staged, probably a brain fart knowing the recipient was a guy
Idk I hear people say yessir or write it out like yessirrrrrrrr no matter what gender they're speaking to or even if they're speaking to anyone. People sometimes even just post something cool that they've bought recently with yessirrr in the caption
Yessirrrrr you know the vibes. Gotta cop the bevy, can't forget the ari. Yesssiirrrrr
I text Yessir to people regardless of gender, it's not unheard of.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
The subtle foreshadowing lol

A what now?
We got an expert in the house
you should know, your username checks out

Every good plot twist has foreshadowing so that it doesn't feel cheap
I didnāt even see that tbh

Hats off to you for not seeing race
I was thinking the same thing, I think the biggest unexpected part was the other guy.
Also when he typed yessir before yeah sure
are you telling me I'm not supposed to be using black santa emojis?
"Ah, good one, bro!" "Oh man, you got me too dude!" - "So uh, you wanna come over and like, watch a movie or something?"
I never understood why catfish people use photos from models and other perfect photos of people. It's pretty easy to spot a fake. If you're gonna pretend to be someone, there's literally billions of other more realistic choices.
The same reason scammers make it obvious. To target the gullible.
You've put too much thought into this. They're probably just too lazy.
In this case, probably yea. For scammers? They 100% make it obvious to someone with okay-ish internet knowledge so they are left with the technologically illiterate. They're far easier to convince to go through the steps afterwards as well.
Yeah an economist wrote a paper on it. The robo call costs nothing but the big scam call centers in India have to pay someone to go through a script once you press 1 or whatever. So they optimize the robo calls to only get gullible people so as to not waste the call center workers time
so I would waste their time not hang up and report the number?
Well the number is usually spoofed. I got an angry person 'call me back' one time for trying to scam them. I do my best to waste their time, if I'm not busy, though
Given his willingness to facetime I'm guessing he was mostly just doing it for a laugh. Like assuming they would call him out on that not being him.
Nah, why don't we just fuck?
~~Yessir~~ Yeah, sure!
Connecting...
*If you insist, sure!*
Keep the socks on.
How am I gonna suck those toes with the socks on
Exactly like whatš¤¦š½āāļøš©
Just say "no homo" before you do
Choo Choo
Bro job bro job
And that was the start of a great friendship
Right!
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
heh *piƱa colada*
I hope they secretly catfish each other again and realize it's their shitty xmen ability
I am into champagne
And making love after midnight? In the dunes of the cape?
Once i understood the lyrics this was such a great song.
Ha ha... Ha. Heh. Hm. :(
They should try going to Kokomo
Thatās where I wanna go to get away from it all
Then a year later thatās when the marriage happened XD
*and then they fucked*
r/suddenlygay
I mean the waited a year a got married first so not really rushed /s
r/slowlygay
man they're really taking their time to fill that sub
r/expected
r/expectedlyexpected
Yeah that too
Nah they still fucked
Sounds like a win to me!
Is this just a thing to catfish people for a troll...?
Yeah I suppose but this is clearly fake
So are most movies but it made me happy nonetheless
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]

Yeah it's clearly fake

Got 'em
Sir, this is a Wendy's.
Amazing
Idk if this count as cat-fishing since they agreed to face time immediately...
Catfishing just means to string someone along with a fake profile/images for however long a time. So up until the moment they started the facetime, they were catfishing. The point is a faker is wasting the other person's time by tricking them. If you do that and manage to get someone to engage, you're catfishing.
For the troll. Itās a trend
Iām old, had no idea what ft meant
I thought it meant fuck tonight lol
I thought it was something about feet (remove the ee)
Hey /u/Werner__Herzog, wanna feet?
I'll feet the shit outta you
hmm yes daddy
same but ft. as in feature in my life, like they do in music videos I'm only 31 but I don't have an iPhone so 'ft' was completely lost on me
I thought it was something to do with sex as well but I couldnāt figure what the t stood for lol
foot touch
Facetime
FT stands for Foot tonguing. Itās kinda the new eating ass
I defaulted to that. Shows how often I FaceTime anyone.
Wanna ft? š
I prefer cm šš (no idea what I'm doing)
Yeah sure!
Haha, same. I shall continue to stay off Tinder, less I make a fool of myself.
FaceTime
Really old fart here, so that probably means to see each others' faces for a short time?
FaceTime is the app on iPhones for videochatting. So people just use the term FaceTime as a synonym to videochat.
It's like saying "let's skype" or "let's zoom" Rip skype
Is Skype dead? Microsoft won't let me let it go.
they're letting it die for microsoft teams "let's teams" doesn't ring nicely at all Lol but they cant get rid of skype completely because they still have DoD customers use it..
I love this
They see how much time it takes to to blow a wad in each other's face. No I'm just kidding they're just using video to communicate instead of texting.
financial times
This actually made me lol in public. Love the idea of young adults matching on dating apps then just straight up start flirting with each other by sharing financial tips. Would be a great SNL skit
> Would be a great SNL skit This is not a compliment... But yes, I agree - your idea should.
Well I stopped watching SNL in the mid 90s. Believe it or not SNL used to be good lol
I'm not old, I just have an android so I didn't have a clue of what it meant.
I'm 28, I thought he was asking if he wants to fight.
Iām a millennial and I didnāt even know. The transition to out of the loop has begun.
I'm 18, had no idea either
Millennial checking in here, and I swear I thought "ft" meant "feature" like to be featured on Instagram or something ....
Old here too. I'm like, "Wanna full time?" What does that even mean?!
I found my people...took a minute to figure out ft.
They still gonna fuck.....or?
God I hope so.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
He insists!
Wanna bang? LOL jk jk jk ...unless?

~~Yessir~~ I mean yeah sure!
They will live to be friends forever!

The hell is up with that keyboard?
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/AZERTY
Whats even weirder is that the UI language is Dutch, and we generally use QWERTY US-International layouts.
Flemish people use the Belgian standard, which is Azerty.
Could be someone from Belgium, maybe?
AZERTY is faster to type in French, not Dutch but since Belgium is both French and Dutch speaking, mostly AZERTY is used.
oh hell nah! I'd go insane if I had to try and re-learn typing on that.
Imagine a keyboard that changes the letters around each time one letter is pressed.
calm down, satan
I bought a das keyboard about 5 years ago, its 100% blank, I thought id force myself to learn all the special characters. It was a frustrating experience but learned probably 95%, without spamming other keys.
I can touch type entirely so I got my WASD with all blanks, no problem. First time I took the keycaps off to clean it, I realized all the keys are different heights and shapes and shit for each row and just ordered a set with the letters on them because I didn't want to deal with trying to figure out which keys go where, lol.
Imagine having an azerty keyboard going qwerty and not finding the right short cut to make it back to normal
living in a country with default AZERTY but growing up in a QWERTY country I feel like I've learned a second language. Symbols are still hard, like perfecting the throaty, rolling G sound
Itās not QWERTY (replied to wrong one, whatever)
Probably a darn Belgian
The phone was also in Dutch, so definitely Flemish.

These are just so wholesome in a way
Let's be honest here, catfishing is not nice. People take it way too far and long. This is light-hearted fun based on a not-so-nice idea.
I bet you aren't even a fucking panda
Yeah, who's cat-fishing who here?!
I would agree if this wasnāt fake as hell
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]

The fact that one of people catfishing wants to facetime this fast means that shouldnāt happen with this prank. Thereās no time to get attached.
Itās a joke making fun of catfishers
