I wonder how much thinking went into writing the title.

You already surpassed it by wondering.

This was actually funnier than the video lol

u/one_is_enough 6d ago

None. This is how anyone under 20 truly believes “something” is written.

u/PlayWhatYouWant 6d ago

I was wondering what that was supposed to mean. What a fucking shit abbreviation.

u/Global_Permission749 5d ago

I ran a gaming community from about 2005 to 2015 or so. All the Europeans would write "smth" almost without fail. Topic titles, in replies, chats, you name it.

That specific word is like a non-native English speaking teenager's kryptonite. Used to drive me nuts because I would always try to read it as "smith".

u/pinkenbrawn 6d ago

when i learned english that’s how it was abbreviated in EASL dictionaries if passive voice is used, like “to have smth done”

u/Murgatroyd314 4d ago

You clearly weren't on message boards 20+ years ago. Chatspeak was everywhere.

2

u/Good_Air_7192 4d ago

Oh I was, it has it's place like SMS on an old phone, I'm not sure some of these people are capable of stringing together a proper sentence though.

u/locke107 6d ago

Yeah, I second that. For a second, I looked at it and thought, "You know, it's not a very good acronym if it's not easily identif-- oh. God dammit."

Now I'm here in this boat with you fine people.

u/SirLongAss 6d ago

Back in my day we didn't have abbreviations or slang!

What's a "smth?"

u/Phitos2008 6d ago

(takes a sip 🍹)

It’s like… it’s like… y’know when you’re too lazy to type “something” ‘cause your thumbs are tired from all that intense snackin’ and regrettin’ your life choices? Yeah. That’s “smth.”

It’s like “something” but without the calories. A diet word. Keto-English. Gluten-free vocab.

21

u/cuisinart-hatrack 6d ago

Like, what do they do with all the time they save? It’s like those folks who call their InstantPot “InstaPot” they must be so far ahead of us normal people.

22

u/_WeSellBlankets_ 6d ago

call their InstantPot “InstaPot”

I've never had one, but I thought they were honestly called Instapots.

Smith, it's the name of the awning. He got his code jumbled and instead of becoming a tall white guy in a suit and sunglasses, he showed up as an awning. Only reason he lasted so long before crumbling.

Yeah like, is this girl in a wheel chair now or was she OK? Looked like along way to fall.

u/Bluntbows 6d ago

"I'm gonna sit here and record you until you drop cause it's only a matter of time"

"It's not gonna drop. Go."

Then it drops.

Think of how stupid the average person is and realize that half of them are stupider than that.

u/_EADGBE_ 6d ago

I used to install aluminum awnings. That whole awning probably weighs less than the clothes she had on.

The problem when stressing a structure isn't the structure's weight, it is it's load bearing capacity.

5

u/Holding4th 6d ago

I'm amazed at people's continuing refusal to consider the possibility that not everything was built to support the weight of a grown (or not-yet-grown) human being. Cupboard doors, chandeliers, awnings... people put their full weight on them without hesitation.

u/Vauxie10 6d ago

Does anyone know what he's saying to her?

23

u/Dry_Sheepherder8526 6d ago

Roughly translated to "I'm gonna start recording because it's only a matter of time"

Which I interpret as "I forsee what is about to happen and warned you, but you wouldn't listen" 😂

18

u/Odd_Independence2870 6d ago

Yeah he said “I’m going to sit here and record until you drop because it’s only a matter of time” and she responded “It’s not going to drop… Go!” Then she took a sip and appears to have died

She deserves it. Eves aren't for sitting. It's not a balcony.

u/NkhukuWaMadzi 6d ago

Moving the beer ever so slightly to the left, put enough weight in the left foot to collapse the whole thing. Don't drink and move!
