It's just shopping, it's just the clothes you bought on line. It is not 'a haul'.
Also I don't care to see you drumming your fingernails on cardboard in an 'unboxing' ceremony.
This has been a public service announcement from someone who always thought it was people in a mask and striped tee shirt who had 'hauls' and considers watching someone you don't know unwrap their shopping really slowly on a par with watching paint dry. Thank you.

"Is someone down a YouTube rabbit hole?"
It was Facebook. Someone had received a delivery if body moisturising products. The video of her opening it was about seven minutes long. I didn't watch until the end, the grass needed my attention to watch it grow  |

In that case, forget I mentioned YouTube rabbit holes. You’ll thank me for it when you avoid the descent. |

I save YouTube for mind improving things like 'how did you discover your partner was cheating? ' or 'is your child a reincarnation?'

"Need a hug?? 
Only if it's accompanied by a cardboard box with someone drumming their finger nails on it 
Kinky
I've worn a few costumes in my time, but never a cardboard box.  "
What about a big fish?
Or a little fish? |

I've got two more.
People giving homeless people money, food or shoes. Filming it and posting it on YouTube or Facebook. By all means show yourself doing the good thing but don't display someone accepting charity.
Parents telling their children off. Do it in damn private not on the internet to follow them around for the rest of their life.
Both of the above are exercises in humiliating people for likes |

I totally agree with you on the first point. I have never in my life filmed or posted about an act of charity I've performed for someone, that would feel so slimy. Inspiration porn is pretty disturbing when you really think about it. |

I agree but I do quite enjoy seeing a certain presidential candidate being humiliated.

I've got no problem with people filming their selves doing the good thing. The act of giving is good in and of itself. It's the 'look how grateful this person is' aspect that I find distasteful |

That's fair. I'd still agree with you there. I still find the filming a bit distasteful, myself, as it's rarely done with selfless intentions. Like to raise awareness, sure, but for clout and likes it smacks of doing the thing for the likes, rather than getting likes for doing the thing, if that makes sense? |

I am so glad I don't participate on a lot of social media by the sounds of what others are saying..
The very mention of the word 'influencer' and i start slinging fucks about..
The worlds gone madder than it used to be .

It does make sense.

I don't mind some "haul" videos. Not the concept. The concept is gross. But like, if I want to buy a new lipstick from a new range, a haul video might be a good review. This formula has xyz qualities compared to what I already know, sort of thing |

"It's just shopping, it's just the clothes you bought on line. It is not 'a haul'.
Also I don't care to see you drumming your fingernails on cardboard in an 'unboxing' ceremony.
This has been a public service announcement from someone who always thought it was people in a mask and striped tee shirt who had 'hauls' and considers watching someone you don't know unwrap their shopping really slowly on a par with watching paint dry. Thank you.

I can see the use of that but I never get as far as that. I also can't bear the waggling of the product and the 'must have' 'go to product ' 'to die for' comments. |

"Unboxing videos and the like make me go 
Why? Just. Why?
Greed is a virtue. Capitalism, baby"
I know, right? We don't need STUFF. Stuff is pointless. Look at all those rich dead dudes from the past, buried with all their STUFF. All that happened is that their graves got desecrated, all the stuff nicked or put on display in the British Museum for tourists to take selfies with.
No thanks, Ma'am. |

But you too can have a backdrop for your videos where you display your thousands of pounds worth of eyeshadow. You could even aspire to have a "haul" that fits into several rooms and takes four or five hours to explain in detail! |

Well no. That would be demonitised, and that is the ultimate sin. |
