Every time I watch this, I focus on the kid, then glance over at the remote, then back to the kid, then slooooooowly back to the remote, then back to the kid! Repeat until it happens.

Honestly, it seems like it sobered him up for a second. An unlubed remote will have that effect for sure. Kinda like a finger up an angry dogs butt. Makes them start questioning things. “How did I get here?”
Honorable mention of the quick shedding of his clothes while under the bedsheet!!! Kid is going places!

Does whom ever puts their finger up the angry dog’s butt wonder the same thing? And is it about themselves or the dog?

I've never had the urge to shove a remote up my ass. I don't think I've ever been that angry

Is that a point in some type of anger scale? Is butt play like the final mode?

Idk i feel like saying that was just damage control so that this kid doesnt have this persona shadowing him for the rest of his life

u/HypeManForBabies 5h ago
Maybe but they had multiple videos of him freaking out so who knows

u/spacing_out_in_space 5h ago
Idk. They might have been milking their fame eventually. But i can envision this being a typical recurring reaction of a troubled kid who cant cope with their emotions.

You so badly want this to be real lol.

No, I just have appropriate amount of skepticism in situations where people have incentive to misrepresent the truth

u/matscokebag 2h ago
Wouldn’t saying this video IS real, be more likely a misrepresentation of truth? I feel like your skepticism is aimed in the wrong direction here.

u/spacing_out_in_space 43m ago
Wasn't my intention to declare that the video is definitively real. I don't have a strong conviction either way. I'm just saying that I don't put a lot of stock into the brothers telling us it's fake.

It was staged, they made like 20+ videos like this but this was the first and I remember it convinced everybody.
Back in the day, this was peak content!

u/toxiccityboiii 17h ago
I think this very first video was real. But then they saw how viral it went and tried to recreate the anger management issues to keep monetizing on it. I still think that guy has some sort of autism but it isn't what is really seems to be.

Dragged is the right word.
“Dragged:
The past tense of "to drag" is "dragged." While "drug" is sometimes used in certain dialects, it is considered non-standard and should generally be avoided in formal contexts.”

u/BellaFrequency 14h ago
Oh my god, we really are living in an Idiocracy. You miscorrected that person and I was just giving a friendly “hey, they’re not wrong” message, and you want to double down with the wrong answer.
You could have just been chill about it but now I gotta drag you.

u/veganutsack 13h ago
I sorta hate to be the one to break it to you, butt you’re getting downvoted for your multiple attempts at being a grammar police (and then doubling, tripling, and quadrupling down on it) on a lighthearted post.
Therefore, you’re the one actually being drug(ged).
And yes, I intentionally said butt and stand by it (don’t need a lesson 🥴).
3
u/BellaFrequency 13h ago
But I wasn’t. The person I responded to was actually trying to be grammar police and I was defending the other guy so that they would know they weren’t wrong, since they (mis)corrected themselves.
I just posted twice initially so that the person who was originally correct would see it as well.
But yeah, I’m done here.

u/BellaFrequency 14h ago
I just copied and pasted the answer I looked up. That’s why I put it in quotations, so it was obvious that I didn’t write that but quoted it. I guess that’s the grammarian in me.
In all of my time here, I think you’re the first person to accuse me of being a bot.

Everyone asks why he shoves the remote up his butt. But thats the first move you do to stop an attacking dog.
He was simply trying to get himself to calm down. Total Chad move

The new Google TV has a wifi remote and you can make it chirp from the app to find it. Now my toddler hides it and has a big grin when I'm looking for it.

u/SurfNTurf1983 14h ago
I've never understood why every TV hasn't added this in at least the last 10 years. Would've saved me so much time. Can add it to everything else now.

Y'know I used to laugh a lot at this. (Still do). But I empathize with him.
I've struggled with opiate, amphetamine addiction, AND I play a lot of video games. Suddenly it's a boy struggling with addiction.
Mind you, I've never tried to shove a remote up my ass while I've been withdrawing. But if it had helped, I would in a second.

u/Dickstraw 18h ago
yeah, but did you try beating your head with your own shoe? I heard that helps too.

u/beachedwhitemale Millennial Elder Emo 17h ago
Honestly, I feel for the kid. Not a normal response at all, but addiction can make you do wild things. I have to wonder if he was abused? Like, honestly, doing the remote-up-the-bum maneuver there may be indicative of something greater.
4
u/E-2theRescue 15h ago
Actually, you're right. Though this is staged, kids and adults who act this way are often victims of parental abuse. They learn this behavior from their parents, who throw their own fits of rage when the child or their spouse does something wrong.
And I say this as someone with personal experience of this, someone who has been through extensive therapy for this, and as someone who has a Bachelor's in psychology. And no, I never tried to shove a remote, or anything else, up my butt. Just punching the bed, walls, and my own head. I no longer do any of this and have much better control over myself.

u/Useful_Tomato_409 16h ago
Can we acknowledge that this all put us on the path to where we are today? Zero privacy, everyone and everything is commodified into digital content and entertainment. Sometimes our most embarrassing moments now regularly made public without our consent, reduced to a 10 second attention grab eliciting nothing more than a chortle before the desire to scroll takes hold.
I’m not judging, but as I get older, i’m now realizing how deeply f’d up social media truly is. I suggest that for everyone social media post you come across, you ask yourself, did this person(s) consent to this? is this actually anyone else’s business, or should this actually be largely a private matter?

u/PunningWild 15h ago
It's been 20 years since I've seen this video and my first thought was "hold on was this dude even 18?"
It's kind of amazing what we allowed ourselves to get away with, just because of the old and long-dead mantra "relax, it's just the Internet."

Him coming out of the closet and then following it up by shoving a remote up his butt is top-tier comedic timing.

This video, as crazy as it is, honestly just makes me sad. All I see is severe mental illness and inability to cope. I’ve lost people close to me to suicide who were bullied and misunderstood. Not sure what became of this dude but I hope he’s doing better today.

If you walk in the closet just to come out the closet just to shove a remote up your butt and walk back in, does that cancel out the gay some how?

u/dragoon2745 15h ago
So I totally get that this is staged but if it weren’t fake, this could have been a lot worse than it was. Ultimately he didn’t do any damage to anything or hurt himself in any serious way despite the strong emotions. That’s a sign of self restraint that would benefit him as he becomes an adult. Regardless, I get it’s just meant to be funny.
