same but for those pet food ads that use recordings of actual pets eating food. i hate ASMR style content so much, everytime these commercials with their animal eating noises come on i freak out.

ASMR gives me the deepest of heebie-jeebies, it's fascinating to me that anyone likes those noises

[–] RoabeArt@hexbear.net 12 points 10 months ago

The only ASMR I can stand is the sound of food cooking/sizzling, only because it triggers an appetite for me.

Shit like whispering, fingernails clacking on hard surfaces, or plastic bags being crinkled... no thanks.

What about mechanical keyboard asmr?

[–] the_itsb@hexbear.net 9 points 10 months ago (1 children)

it's not nails on a chalkboard, but I don't love it

how about you?

[–] Gorb@hexbear.net 11 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Its one of my two favourite sounds the other being crunchy cat luna crunching. All other asmr is completely untenable

I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:

porky-happy left-arrow Ultimately disturbing

Youtubes new account recommendations are disturbing. It's not that they want your data its just that the default behaviour is already warped

[–] UlyssesT@hexbear.net 12 points 10 months ago

"The algorithm is nonpolitical" said by a bunch of performatively-numbed groypers that don't see anything political about the horrid shit the default setting pushes.

I think they definitely prey upon the "negative engagement is still engagement" phenomenon. If they could get away with it they'd be bombarding children with violent and pornographic content just to drive up the numbers. Who cares if you traumatized a person, they still saw the ads! More ads! Ads ads ads. Looking forward to future car commercials where a Mr. Beast type runs over a cyclist and saying "did EYE do that?" while making soy face and pointing at his eye.

The thing on the left is cute

[–] Philosophosphorous@hexbear.net 20 points 10 months ago (1 children)

it eats your tongue and latches onto the stump to replace it, taking a bit of all the food you eat from then on

Ugh, YouTube keeps thinking I want to watch videos about an owl covered in shit and piss.

Owl eats a can of beans and farts on everyone!!!

I wouldn't know. I actively seek out stuff on parasites and the like. Then again, I wanted to be an entomologist in the past.

[–] HumanBehaviorByBjork@hexbear.net 9 points 10 months ago

i think they look nice

[–] huf@hexbear.net 9 points 10 months ago

for like the last year or two, no matter what i youtube search, if i scroll down hard enough, i'll get a few videos of like skin diseases and feet with very bad corns/calluses.

i have no idea what youtube is thinking...

[–] PolandIsAStateOfMind@lemmygrad.ml 9 points 10 months ago

You should rewrite that CW that you meant animal parasites, i expected rich white old dudes.

Sensationalism sells and the algorithm is intended to maximize sensationalism. It's why those empty SEO faces are shoved at us with ALL CAPS declarations about SOMETHING DESTROYED.

[–] Thordros@hexbear.net 6 points 10 months ago

I've been reading this title all day as "gross pastries" and now I really want to eat a strudel. So thanks for that.

[–] BelieveRevolt@hexbear.net 6 points 10 months ago

I thought this was a bit thread at first and the picture was going to be of some landlords.

[–] Redcuban1959@hexbear.net 4 points 10 months ago

YT's recommendation and search algorithm is really screwed up, it used to be much worse a few years ago. YT used to show dead bodies and other strange things when I was trying to just find some funny videos. I think it stopped recently, but what was that? And it also showed legit hentai and hardcore eroguro videos when I searched for something in Japanese or Chinese.
