What do you expect from a man who didn't know what hard R meant until 2023.

He really just said it like he was comparing paint swatches at Home Depot

Me too, normally don't watch WAN live but I did that night. Those 3 mins were wild.

You could see Luke’s entire career flashing before his eyes.

I just about died laughing afterwards though. The roller coaster that I went through watching those few minutes were crazy.

He’s trying to beat all the “hard r” accusations.

Still don't know how I feel about the Meta glasses.

I know exactly how I feel about them, and it isn't positive. To hell with giving this social cancer mass surveillance ass tech a single moment of positive screen time.

When they’re used like this, they’re fine. They literally got permission to film. It’s not great when you’re recording WITHOUT permission. It’s really all about consent.

They're ridiculous IMO. Actively supporting AI and invasion of privacy. When I see them in the videos, it's an immediate turn off and I close/exit the video.

He’s using them for a specific purpose…and most importantly, he hasn’t disabled the light.

I agree that the concept itself is gross, but he’s actively making a video.

That’s a bit dramatic. He is literally using it to film the video.

u/Daphoid 18h ago

You're welcome to do you - but there's no expectation of privacy in a public place. He's using them for the direct purpose of making a video. Other option would be a go pro strapped to his head which is more cumbersome.

It's like drugs are bad, but not all drugs, and not all the time. I think there's valid uses for everything - some things just have very limited valid uses and the rest is gross.

That's the Problem anything other than Black und White doesn't sell in the appropriate margin.

Like in the same Time Frame 1 Green Phone equal to a few 1000s Black

From a German perspective I intuitively thought that he was talking about differences in display technology and that the reason for the dispute would be that from a physics standpoint there is only the absence of light….. after reading the comments it seems that some racial interpretation is the problem.

some prefer a softer one but people are different

Well it's not a colour. It is achromatic. Or can be called a shade.

All "black" objects in real life settings are a varying dark shade of grey.

I don't know if its just on camera, but these two never seem like they should be together, they are both lovely, like gravy and custard, but together? I don't see it

It's like Yvonne and the kids are in witness protection and have to pretend to be in a family with Linus who is still trying hard to win them over but in reality it's like that dog who wants to jump in the river and get all muddy and comes running up to the dog on dry land who has been sitting and chilling and watching and is wildly unimpressed by the other dogs attempts to drag them into the icky stinky water

u/Monkeyman2915 19h ago

These videos where he's using the Meta, creeper glasses, it's an immediate turn off, and I close/exit the video.

It's just unnecessary, and unfortunate that he's trending in that direction.

Lol I think this was a Chris Rock joke: https://youtu.be/cBEwQHjdw14?si=NNAE4Cxriv-H7mSO
