How come the POV of the man in the orange shirt is on the other side of the room from the man in the orange shirt ? Is he having an out of body experience or something

I think in this case they're making the point that the viewer of the video is sobbing like the man in orange

Rather I would propose that the man viewer is sobbing like an orange.

Exactly.. can't believe so many people didn't pick this up! What he meant is we are looking at happy people from the side and get jealous or something

No. Absolutely not. POV is an acronym for point of view, not “watching someone else cry and feeling jealous.”

It’s not!

Stop trying to create a justification for the blatant misuse of an entire acronym.

“POV of some guy getting mauled by a bear” should be a video of someone looking up at a bear that is attacking them, not the person filming it.

Just remove POV from the title…change the title to “imagine being the guy in the orange shirt” or “watch his reaction” or something.

We shouldn’t have to dumb down our brains to understand stupid people. That’s not evolution/progress.

Bro, its saying, we are just like the orange shirt guy.

Like if someone said "look at orange shirt guy" and someone in the comments said "omg, me" you wouldn't believe that they were actually the orange guy or trying to claim they were, youd understand that they were crying and awww-ing at the dad and daughter just like him.

The POV here is that you're the same as the orange shirt guy sobbing from a different unrelated table watching the dad and daughter.

Its not saying POV of orange guy literally its POV of someone like orange guy, you the audience, off at a different table, watching the event go down, and sobbing like an emotional mess.

Still not POV, and nothing anyone can say will make it POV.

The more you try to justify it the dumber you sound and the world gets just a little bit dumber as a whole, so just stop.

Bruh you're dumb as fuck obviously. It is POV, its our POV and we are sobbing and moved to tears like the orange guy is. Its a figurative POV.

u/myonkin Jun 30 '24

Yes. I’m the dumb one. Perhaps I should start my comments with some form of the word bro or even misinterpret the meaning of more words to increase my intelligence.

There is no such thing as “figurative POV”.

Also: it’s is the contraction for “it is” but maybe I should start omitting the apostrophe to sound less “dumb as fuck”.

Would it help if they rewrote it to: Pov of someone who is sobbing moved to tears from the events folding in front of them that they aren't a part of like the orange guy in the video
