BTW the title should be

POV: someone doesn't know how to use POV

You obviously know how to use POV ;)

[–] jeremyparker@programming.dev 28 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

Back in my day we used to make “tfw” (that feel when) or “mfw” (my face when) posts that rarely if ever contained a face or a feeling

[–] Sylvartas@lemmy.world 3 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

rarely if ever contained a face or a feeling

We even added "> mfw I have no face" to address that if we felt particularly quirky !

[–] JustAnotherKay@lemmy.world 2 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

For anyone needing a bit of whimsy in their life: read acronyms as if they're normal words. "Miffwuh I have no face"

[–] Sylvartas@lemmy.world 1 points 3 hours ago

Sorry but you just activated my pedant mode...

adjusts glasses anime style um akshually, that is the definition of an acronym, otherwise it is just an initialism.

[–] beebarfbadger@lemmy.world 7 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

And then have an out-of-body experience where you watch yourself doing that from the outside.

[–] lugal@lemmy.world 1 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

Why would you watch yourself instead of your mother's series?

[–] beebarfbadger@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago

No idea but that's the point of view of that picture. The view clearly being my stance, not the series.

[–] Toneswirly@lemmy.world 12 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

My wife be watching 90 Day Fiance and sometimes I catch myself unironically watching a whole episode with her. Shit is buckwild

[–] wjrii@lemmy.world 6 points 9 hours ago

The fact that it’s all rehearsed and refined and outlined and stage-managed only makes it slightly less bonkers. This is the face these people are CHOOSING to present to the world.

Gets repetitive after a while, though.

[–] bennypr0fane@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

That's not POV, unless you are your mom

[–] fosho@lemmy.ca 4 points 4 hours ago (2 children)

that still doesn't make sense. no one in the scene is watching this guy so NOT POV.

[–] lugal@lemmy.world 3 points 3 hours ago

The TV does. TV watching goes both ways

[–] Nasan@sopuli.xyz 2 points 4 hours ago

Jesus and Santa, they're always watching

[–] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 42 points 13 hours ago* (last edited 9 hours ago)

“Oh god, not this shit again.”

45 minutes later

“But WHY does Abigail have to go to the nunnery? She didn’t do anything wrong!”

[–] hungryphrog@lemmy.blahaj.zone 34 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

Guess who went to sleep way too late last night because I stayed to watch the nature documentary my dad fell asleep to.

[–] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 16 points 13 hours ago

As long as he wasn’t snoring, you can sit behind your dad and imagine he’s the one narrating.

[–] psmgx@lemmy.world 1 points 9 hours ago* (last edited 9 hours ago)

That time the guest on Oprah was interesting

[–] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 4 points 14 hours ago

Plot twist.....the series is South Park.

[–] moosetwin@lemmy.dbzer0.com -5 points 10 hours ago* (last edited 9 hours ago) (1 children)

POV: you think there's an incorrect way to use understood words

[–] fosho@lemmy.ca 3 points 4 hours ago

exactly whose point of view was watching this dude? the only other person is the mom who is watching a show.

[–] BenFranklinsDick@lemmy.world -1 points 15 hours ago (4 children)

Isn't this an actual proper use of the POV format though?

[–] thedirtyknapkin@lemmy.world 18 points 11 hours ago

yeah this is a mfw format. mfw my mom is watching something Lowkey interesting and i have to pretend I'm not watching.

[–] fushuan@lemm.ee 51 points 15 hours ago* (last edited 15 hours ago)

The meme implies that you are the shown kid, so of course it's not proper use, you should be shown whatever that kid is seeing. His point of view, a 1st person view. It's not that hard.

[–] nifty@lemmy.world 39 points 15 hours ago* (last edited 15 hours ago) (1 children)

From what I’ve seen when it’s the pov of an animate object you use its pov, so this could be the tvs pov. If it’s a person you use theirs. Memeing is serious business so I am glad you asked

[–] anarchrist@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 9 hours ago

you are the gabagool

I feel seen

[–] MagnyusG@lemmy.world 16 points 15 hours ago (2 children)

the pov format is inherently flawed because it's almost never actually from your "point of view"

[–] dragonfucker@lemmy.nz 3 points 8 hours ago (1 children)
[–] Nasan@sopuli.xyz 1 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

Don't you normally comment in the third person? This POV debacle hits deep

[–] Default_Defect@midwest.social 2 points 1 hour ago

Only when Drag refers to Dragself.

[–] metaStatic@kbin.earth 24 points 15 hours ago

MFW: POV is used incorrectly. SMH my head.
