"men bad lol"
That's why I send my memes to my wife's phone. so she can view them on her own phone.
I got married even though it meant waiting for every restaurant meal to be photographed and posted to Instagram before I could take a bite.
One of those moments when I'm glad my wife cares almost as little about social media as I do.

I'm a man who hates watching videos on my phone, but I'm already married. I'll ask around tho.
Seems like there is a solution she hasn't considered. Marrying a woman who has and uses her own phone. It won't be "a man's phone" then.
Or a man that doesn't use a phone, only a laptop.
Or a non-binary that doesn't use any technology.
Or a clone of herself, that way she's just showing herself her own phone.
Clones stop being you the moment they are created, assuming they had your memories in the first place, which isn't scientifically plausible.
Please be serious about this 🙄
I'd still fuck em.

A man can get into a lot of trouble, if he doesn't watch the endless tiktok reals with enthusiasm and excitement.
My wife shows me wayyyy more videos on her phone than I show her on mine
Most of the stuff I share is still images/comics/gifs etc
Same. It takes a very special video to get me to turn my sound on. Definitely more of a static content feller

Are you kidding me? My fb chat with my wife is nothing but memes and videos from her
My wife tells me dad jokes. Really really terrible dad jokes. Ones that make me roll my eyes, and I'm a dad. That's how bad they are. But they make her laugh so I'm ok with that.
i have a tip to get back at her. whenever her phone rings, make sure you say 'its for you'. i still find this hilarious after 15 years . she is less amused, but at least im entertained.

I showed this to my girlfriend and she was like, "I don't get it, why are you showing this to me?"
Don't have a kid. You'll be made to watch videos on their phone. For hours' worth of your life.
If it's exclusively David Attenborough documentaries, then that's okay.

Nah, I'm too Gen X to watch videos on my phone, let me pull it up on my laptop.
Videos are a big screen activity.
For me it's more that youtube videos are a browser with an ad blocker activity.

Showing me the weird shit you watch on YouTube is a requirement for me, I want to know what videos you watch when you're alone and bored with nothing to do.
I hope you like documentaries about completely random shit from politics of a foreign nation over 300 years ago, to how an obscure campaign of a war over a hundred years ago was fought, a full biography of a fictional character and what events they may have been witness to, to a plethora of asmr things as background noise, engineering deep dives and video game related content.

I guess people don’t know the stand-up comedian Blair Socci yet. She’s kind of funny but I have a feeling this was an idea for a joke that isn’t fully formed. A lot of comedians use social media to workshop their stuff…
I liked Blair's "appearance" on the Bad Dates podcast.
I believe, it's possible to marry women, then you don't have to watch videos on a man's phone. 🙃
If i know you and you're in my general vicinity youre gonna be watching a YouTube video even if you're married to someone else i'm a slut that way
Babe, wake up! NEW ROMAN AQUEDUCTS LORE JUST DROPPED!
More like having a phone shoved to your face to see a meme that is mildly entertaining at best.
True, but in return for her smiling at my memes and nodding politely at my rambling about my various Stars, both Wars and Trek, I stop what I’m doing to watch her capybara TikToks and try to remember what she tells me about the history of Hiphop beefs and how to guess the geographic origin of rappers.
This is what marriage is, and it works. 😂
Yeah and sometimes it just rubs off on each other, like I was never the gardening guy but her enthusiasm about it was infectious and now I find myself getting excited about how many tomatoes a single plant can grow or what beautiful colors the tiny corn poppies can produce.
And the other way around - a friend gave me a 'Quark' shirt for my birthday and my girlfriend said 'ugh ferengies are so ugly, couldn't he have given you a Spock shirt, I like him more' and I was soooo proud of her.
You just learn to enjoy their excitement about their boring shit until you start to share the excitement and you start to enjoy the thing too.

There's plenty other reasons that disqualify me from marriage but sharing videos on my phone is not one of them
Astonishing that there are dipshits who managed to be offended even by this.
My Chinese girlfriend makes me watch Chinese Xiahongshu (think Instagram reels) videos on her phone with a cracked screen with her. No, I do not understand Chinese.

What's wrong with men's phones? Is she afraid of fucking cooties?
So just get married, and watch videos on your wife's phone.
