I honestly was not expecting a short film doing social commentary on how ridiculous modern dating and trend culture has become, phenomenal work.

[@constantspider]

I'm being so serious this is actually just peak cinema. I feel like I watched a very realistic short film of how the internet is affecting relationships. Thank you so much cherd, you keep getting better

[@Pirategod23]

It makes so much sense. I actually kinda expected him to be here.

[@doughboywhine]

Is that the name of dracula flow guy?

[@DavidHelloWorld]

Love how you pushed past the meme into how internet culture affects the real world. Funny how the guy on the initial date seemed like perfect meme material initially, but then turned out to be a normal dude outside of that awkward date. Would've loved to see him try to cash in on his sudden internet fame. Nice callout to the Chipotle girl who did exactly that. Good stuff 👍

[@fungustheclown666]

Yeah, and honestly he wasn't overly creepy imo. I'm saying this as a woman with experience in creeps. Watching someone's stories and knowing personal things about them is normal to many people now. If you didn't post everything online and he knew all that, then I'd be concerned, but she posted everything apparently. He really just seemed awkward and anxious. And with trends, it usually starts out tame and gets progressively worse, which was shown with the guys here, and was shown with his roomate planning on harassing people to try and get into the trend himself.

[@truenoae8689]

​@@fungustheclown666yeah thats a very good point actually about how this is normal now. Out of curiosity what are the warning signs for actual creeps? I'm a guy and some guys I knew ended up being creeps but I never picked up on it until girls told me what they did

[@solar0wind]

​@@truenoae8689 Other woman here: I personally just try to gauge a guy's opinions on stuff. E.g. equality, LGBTQ rights, and all that. I'm just looking for signs that a guy might not see women as people, and might not be able to understand experiences of other, maybe more marginalized groups of people. And then eventually I tell him about bad stuff I experienced as a woman by other guys, and see if they react empathetically or not. But sometimes it's just hard to tell. There was a guy that was clearly into me, texting me a lot and all that, but I didn't think much of it because he never said anything and talking to him every now and then was nice. But then I invited him over (we had wanted to go on a walk, but I felt a bit sick, so I told him that I needed to rest), and then he got so touchy-feely, even pulling me on his lap once "as a joke", and asked in the end if we wanted "to do things", even though I was trying to block everything and didn't give him any signs of interest. That was so akward that I didn't really want contact with him anymore. I thought he had just been a bit weird and socially awkward, but then he assaulted a friend of mine who's his colleague. So my gut feeling had been correct. So lucky that I ghosted him. That guy is dangerous. If it hadn't been for other women who helped my friend, he might've done worse. She of course didn't report him to their boss "because she doesn't want to ruin his career". Well, he had no problem ruining her mental health even further. Guys like this do the bad stuff to women with bad mental health and self worth because those women won't defend themselves. Not during, not after.

[@hsfan123]

Yo i saw the short of this first, did NOT expect to be blindsided by a sympathetic angle

[@its_drez]

i love how its like the short is the video that got posted by the girl in this video and then the full video here is what happened

[@truenoae8689]

​@@its_drezyeah it's actually excellent writing first showing the part everyone sees then piece by piece showing what led to that point. And the subway guy watching it made you view it from a different lens. I hope Cherdleys keeps doing this kinda short film

[@athiefinthenight6894]

I'm honestly blown away. I did not expect this level of depth when I clicked on this video, I just thought it was gonna be a clip satirising desperate dudes but holy shit we got a full story line with multiple characters and it felt so real. And man the working at subway dead end job everything was just put together masterfully, and the exposure of how trends are manufactured and fake was just wonderful. High praise.

[@bobaseth1]

This is an actually great short film, an insightful cinematic comment on society and social media. Cherdleys is evolving…

[@YaBoyDrew623]

Of course!! He’s the goat

[@nm-je7sm]

I watched this and just felt bad. Even if you want to argue the first guy was intentionally being creepy, which isn't a given, since my first impression is that he was just awkward and didn't know how to act normal, there's still certainly a slew of normal guys who wound up getting caught up in that trend and humiliated by their crush.

Same. The reason this video is so unrealistic is because those men usually *are* red flags. Most women know to never attempt this, because we could get kidnapped and killed.

[@Bluechief6]

This guy has been my favorite actor to appear in Joel Haver videos even since I saw him in Drowning in Potential. He's so good. "yeah... I'm like a bug to them. Amazon rainforest is humungo.
