Scott Cramer 😘

What if I don’t want to be a simp?...

Scott Cramer 0:45 Scott is insulting my clothes now. How the tables have turned

Scott Cramer Happy belated birthday!

watching your videos makes me happy

Neither have I, but I at least have the common sense to know this is common sense for Normal Communication, not to spot flirting or to flirt.

She's the type to believe everyone is flirting with her

@@chloejade9055 and dare I say, I could tell that from her...body language.

I second that motion

Lucy Dearden this comment made me actually laugh out loud, trank you kind stranger.

@@Katemione same here

Me too😂

I absolutely will not

I will'nt

I hope her clients got a full refund.

She sounds like she's never even had experience with this stuff too, which is amazing to me. Not that *that's* amazing, but I mean you wouldn't get health and fitness advice from someone who's obese and gets winded at just the very thought of doing any sort of exercise, would you? Especially when they come out with phrases like "hot ape" and uses it to fit their weird little philosophies.

i dont think she advertised very well.

Yes, that's the "corporate" part... Trust me, I've been forced to attend speeches by "specialists", who wouldn't have been able to find their own arse in a dark room, even if they'd searched with both hands. One I vividly remember was a Harvard educated business coach, who told us (a team of people working in the medical field), that negative words cause cancer (in those, who use them, but even more so in the people, who listen to them). We shouldn't answer questions like "Did you have a difficult journey?" truthfully anymore, but lie to medical personnel by pretending, that everything was a-ok, although our car was a smoking wreck, turned upside down in the helicopter landing zone in pouring rain, hail and stones falling from the sky due to a nearby volcanic eruption. "Just tell them you had a wonderful time," was that idiot's answer to everything. Later he insisted, that we were not allowed to change a baby's diaper, if the baby showed signs of distress, that indicated, that it didn't want to have its diaper changed. We needed to ask for permission. No idea what sort of an answer he thought a 3 month old kid can give... but the mothers amongst us were furious and almost drowned him in the goldfish pond in the lobby after that, shouting, "A BABY, THAT NEEDS ITS DIAPER CHANGED, IS OF COURSE IN DISTRESS!!!" Next up: The flirtologist, who teaches us to grope patients, because they're helpless and can't run away... and they'll feel so much better, if their lonely routine is broken up by the possibility to sue us morons.

Except her services are utter shite and as much as I don't want her to win anybody who'd become her client deserves to be bilked.

that’s very funny, i would’ve laughed 🥲

Aww at least you made a joke. I would have laughed too

I would have coughed if I was in the audiance.

That's way funnier!

Is it any consolation that I just erupted into uncontrollable laughter at your comment?

Like most Tedx speakers, she's dressed abominably.

She talks in a "gUyS, yOu ArE nOt GoInG tO bEliEvE tHiS, bUt I wAs OnCe REALLY uNaTtRaCtIvE & uNcOoL!!! uBeLiEvAbLe, RiGhT?!?

She speaks exactly the same way my English teacher does

Her tone is almost identical to my math teacher. The same sort of, “You are required to listen to me, I’m better than you” condescending tone.

That's EXACTLY what I was thinking. She so obviously thinks she's smarter than everyone else.

She reminded me of Gabbie Hanna too

Madison Potter-Moen .. hahaha 100000%%%

@@rananawito3526 she's gabbie in fifteen years.

Lmao too true

"Not to toot my own horn, but I'm a HOT APE."

Hahahaha

I read this as Sharon's standing ON the table lol

Yeah perhaps you're in the way and should find a better place to stand

I have not finished the video yet, but if the lady in the vid says that line I will be disappointed. I'm already disappointed. I think making flirting a science is great to an extent. What I don't like is how certain she is about the method she uses to determine if someone is flirting or not. The Ape method she uses is extremely flawed. No method of doing something has a guaranteed success rate, but her method is more than just not guaranteed to work. It's nearly a guaranteed failure in most situations. You should just be yourself in social situations and hope your OWN method of flirting works. When your method doesn't work you can't expect science to magically change your personality and increase your likelihood of finding a match.

@@First-to-last yeah get off the food dang

Closing the coldness of the heart

Food is in a fridge so food well not mentioned is implied to exist in the fridge so food represents greed and him closing the fridge door shows him moving on from his greed but eventually he will come back as he is always in this loop of greed then inner peace then back to greed as eventually you have to eat again

You see, closing the fridge door on the fridge full of rotten food he never ate represents him running away from his unsolved problems that have bloomed to encompass his life, represented by the stench of the rotten food. His credit card debt is a moldy sandwich, and the smell of that bad ham shows how he feels overwhelmed.

Heavy on the violent crime 😭🤣

She doesn't do research

I agree

As someone who works in Japan in the customer service industry and have Japanese family relatives, I really don't know where her "data" is coming from.

Dude, she's in a Tedx Talk. How much credibility does she have? 😂

I'm pretty sure she was referencing a very specific dude (who lives in the states, born and raised, and just so happens to be Japanese by race alone) who tried to marry a videogame character from a DS game. There's an episode of Mind Field (the Vsauce KZfaq Premium series) that features him in it. Still, her massively problematic way of going "haha, let's make fun of the Asian man" definitely means she's not worth listening to, immediately.

Can’t blame him with having that to deal with

go girl give us nothing

It’s funny because they were at least a little on board until she made that awful joke about Japanese people and started showing her attempts at flirting and lost all credibility.

Omg so true 🤣

No she does, it’s just bad

Right?!!!

Yessss!!! I was getting immediate carol vibes from her 😂😂😂

Atembe LMAOO

LMAO

LMAO

Or how many guys have been as well

wtf are you talking, the whole point is that if you don't receive the "hot ape" signals back, then you stop wasting your time with that person that isn't interested. It's literally the opposite of sexual harrassment

@@freshrockpapa-e7799 She never said that. What she in fact said was, if it doesn't work out, it is because you didn't follow all the steps (i.e. if you keep going it'll work out) and that is dangerous advice

@@MP-ef9yo If you can't figure out on your own that you aren't supposed to pursue people that aren't flirting with you after you show interest then you're being dense on purpose. I remember watching the video when it came out and applying it as I'm telling you, and even I, having autism, understood it properly. Nevermind that the whole intro is about teaching people whether or not they are being flirted with.

@@freshrockpapa-e7799 I love how you took the opportunity to make it all about yourself. That's what shortsighted people do because they lack the ability to understand different perspectives. My point was that there are people who would take what she said and use it in such a way that it would make people they are "hotaping" very uncomfortable. She literally said "If things don't work out, it's not because they don't like you, it is because you didn't follow the steps". Thus prompting people to continue to pursue the steps even if it is not working out

more like "Do I LOoK like you DaDdy?" 0.o

this comment is crazy underrated

Lolololol

Fuck Ted, all my homies hate Ted 😤

I know this is a joke and all, but actually, if you check behind her, it says TEDx, not TED TALK. It's made by the same organization, but anyone can sign up for a local TEDx talk, as oppose to TED TALKs where you have to be an actual expert on a subject. She's not even a TED expert, lol

It's like, not even a joke too. It's just an observation, cricket is a long game and so is the flirting game and also it's not a game.

Ha that was mine too! Sadly, I do that with tickets.

I think “hot” and rhyming with “rape” is the worst way to get a date. I too feel wronged by her

i’m sorry i laughed 💀

It physically hurts me

@@vesainthesewer bot cape is okay because it brings up pictures of a robot superhero

I read some comments while the ad rolled, and man now that I got to the first time she says “hot ape” yeah I’m with ya. Even that logo she put with it...

Even with context it's terrifying

“Take action and go hot ape someone” 🤦‍♂️

Noodle is suspicious of your search history •_• for some reason that makes me think it’s a term for like shitting on someone

I dont think i want to know the context

@@nathanielperry2714 most stuff on urban dictionary does mean that

Yes hun, I so feel that. And my coworker handed me a cup at the coffee table the other day and our fingers brushed, he has it baaad. Getcho raise.

LMAO I CANNOT 💀😭

dude thats sooo far away from your brain!

He definitely got a raise from all that hot sweaty flirting.

I’m assuming his feet were pointing towards you and if he made eye contact, baby, you’ve got a sexual harassment lawsuit

True, also, hotape? what was she thinking?? This could be an acceptable guide to identify people who are flirting, but somehow she forgot that was the point.

yeah i was thinking that too

Please don't hit me

@@elafimilo8199 Ikr lol

No matter how much data your accumulate or learn, it won’t confer emotional intelligence. No degree or PhD or research can give you that.

Why does that phrase physically hurt me?

She’s a Karen. Everything they say hurts.

Too spot on..

I think of South Park when you say this

I say that ahhhh

Rhianna Rajput exactly what I was thinking

Rhianna Rajput and oh how it fails

“How do you do, fellow kids? Ya up for some... HOT APE-ing?”

I once noticed the same author was used for a Women's Magazine "How to show him you're into him" and a Men's Magazine "How to know she's into you" article. The articles matched, subject and object was just swapped around. Well at least people who read those magazines would be able to cross-communicate.

@@frenchbreadstupidity7054 wow that's really interesting. I imagine that the magazines have the same parent company or resourced the article from the same place. If they are the same company I wander if doing such things makes the tips more successful and people more likely to buy more magazines

Me when I’m trying to write a cohesive essay

Yeah! I completely forgot how this started. I thought I was going to learn more about how people were flirting with me, not whatever she turned it into. Hot Ape? ugh, what a terrible catch-line slogan, so not sexy.

Welcome to my TED talk. 1. How do I know if somebody is flirting with me? 2. There are cross-cultural signs of flirting. 3. This is how you should flirt with somebody. 4. If you fail, it's because you didn't follow the rules. 5. Forget about the rules. Thank you.

Omg I laughed so hard at that

was thinking this... did she press her face against restaurant windows or go to a club solo or smth?

she didnt even "research" she went to a few european and american cities and called it a day.

She better not be saying that to people in Africa

yep, thats exactly it, fact checked as true

My Sense of humor picked up a scent of stale content with jade colored flaky mold. It reeked.

Or that if someone is backing away from me they want to get away.

Phew! I always go for guys who never make me laugh and never laugh at anything I say, so luckily she said that!

It's all very much how-to-get-a-guy-to-like-you-tier stuff

Why is that so accurate

She sounds likes she’s trying to make fetch happen and she’s definitely trying too hard

Clutch Envyツ lol thanks 😊

Nekira Hodge yes!!! That explains much of the cringe

EXACTLY MY THOUGHTS

What Not To Do At a Stoplight I’ve seen plenty of pickup artists using alpha as a marketing term. It’s mostly in ads to buy courses to teach you how to be alpha and get girls and stuff.

Nekira Hodge I think most pick-up advice is pretty terrible ngl

@What Not To Do At a Stoplight "Dumb" is one way to put it. "Vulnerable" is another alternative, so maybe try not to throw everyone under the bus when there are various reasons why someone might be susceptible to a pick-up artist.

Ooof 😃

To be fair, a Japanese male would be more accurate/precise.

Devin Bannish That’s logically untrue. If you say “person marrying an online character” IS a person marrying an online character, that’s literally the most accurate and precise you can get. Saying “Japanese male” is way more general (half of the population of Japan), and way more inaccurate, since the percentage of people who do not marry online characters still makes up most of Japan’s population. Don’t excuse the lazy joke with “it’s technically true”. It’s not, and even if it was, it’s a half-assed attempt at being funny. If the lady was actually funny this entire talk wouldn’t have turned out this cringy.

Andrew Cabaj I don’t know at least with archeologists they are doing something, finding bones and shit.

@@stoneseabolt Haha, I think I remember that quote too. Love that show.

Thanks for the heads up

Was totally not expecting that 😳

I think she was trying to refer to a specific story. But instead of going super vague or super specific, she... _just_ included the country, which was a terrible choice, especially for a heavily-revised-heavily-edited speech.

@@BroudbrunMusicMerge That's a fair point I hadn't thought of! My comment was pretty reactionary, but she is still perpetuating stereotypes that are pretty harmful

@@mrendroid609 yes i absolutely agree. i cringed so hard, especially as the majority of my friends are east asian and these are the kind of stereotypes that make them hate that they’re east asian

I knew which story she was talking about, but the way she worded it definitely came out wrong.

Especially considering that there's a big problem in japan of people having such severe social anxiety that they don't even leave their house, which is what would lead someone to finding love with a fictional person. So it was kind of insulting of mental illness as well. I don't think that was her intent, but based on the rest of her speech she's incredibly tone deaf for someone who supposedly studies social anthropology.

You should call one of those lawyers on tv. They can get you money for your pain and suffering.

FOR REAL...

I like your username, but I disagree. Comedy is subjective. There's no way to police what jokes are and are not okay while also preserving freedom of speech. You're on a slippery slope there, pal.

@@TheRealFaceyNeck well citizens can police jokes as much as we want. Freedom of speech is about if the govt can step in to stop the joke, which no one is proposing. We police other's speech all the time. We shame people who curse loudly in public, who yell insults, who talk in theaters. It's the same concept

@free forever op actually doesnt say anything about the morality of the joke directly, op is just commenting on how ironic it is that a cultural anthropologist would say that joke, since that profession is what you would consider the ultimate sjw

@free forever ok maybe sociologists are the number 1 "sjw" but cultural anthropology deals w a lot of sociology and acceptance/understanding/respect of other races/cultures. In uni I took cultural anthro and a lot of it was about racism, gender non conformity around the world, etc. Not that I'm an expert. But surely someone who is you would think wouldnt throw random jabs at different cultural stereotypes lol

and the fact that she’s an anthropologist makes it soooo much worse! she studies culture but then belittles them as well, because they’re “foreign” or “different.” stereotyping japanese men for your dumb hot ape speech? ew

I’m sorry but if that joke offended u u must live a goddamn privileged life.

It's not a good joke but it is actually based in reality. Japanese males are increasingly reluctant to engage with real women and at the same time more are "getting in relationships" with anime characters, body pillows etc. It sounds like a joke but it isn't.
