Couple days ago. Hanging out with a few friends, burgers and beers at a sit down place. Not high end, but not McDs either. Normal place.

I notice a girl one table over is clearly doing a whole ass livestream or sth. Not just a quick selfie. Clearly streaming. Wagging her phone all around, for like 10+ minutes.

My friends didn’t even notice. I’m mad tho, b/c I don’t wanna be on whatever shit some influencer is gonna u/l the stream to. Prob youtube or her IG or w/e.

But nothing I can do. Getting up to ask her to cut it TF out would only have made it worse. That just makes me content fodder!

That is all. Thank you for coming to my rant, and I hope you are all having a good day.

    because a restaurant doesn’t want to get plastered all over YT or IG either.

    True. I’ve even heard of cases where a “food influencer” demands a free meal from a place. If they won’t acquiesce, they threaten terrible reviews on their socials. Now maybe influencer has 73 followers so who cares. But maybe they have 73M and restaurant takes a drubbing on social media. I don’t envy the restaurants either TBH.
