Nandidiri ako tuwing makakita o makarinig ng Pinoy content sa ibang phone o TV. Ang sakit sa tenga.
In fairness to Pinoy content, it's not just because it's Pinoy that irritates me, it's the sound effects they use on top of the irritating humor that they inevitably use.
Di ko rin alam kung bakit naiirita ako tho. Maybe it's some kind of a Pavlovian thing where I've associated those sound effects with irritating content, or it is the sound effects pushing what might otherwise be tolerable content past the line and into irritating territory.
Whenever I heard them, I felt like I'm developing myself with misophonia, and this is me tuning up white noise for meditation or whenever I'm bored.
Di lang ito limited sa YT o socmed shorts/content, pati na rin sa local TV, especially GMA.
I'm with you on that one. Worthy of special mention is that baby laughter noise that a lot of Pinoy Youtubers use. Nagpipintig tenga ko pag naririnig ko siya.
Di lang ito limited sa YT o socmed shorts/content, pati na rin sa local TV, especially GMA.
Oo nga ano.... I've been thinking this is mostly just a socmed thing, but it's already spread onto local TV (I've heard the baby laugh sound effect on Showtime as well).
the sound effects are the worst tbh
Even Indian comedy videos on YT are also doing those sound effects. Very cringey.
I didn't know that. Thanks for the additional perspective. It's too easy for me to think of it as a "cringe Pinoy thing" since that's what I'm exposed to.
Konti lang pinoy content na kaya ko matiis, and mostly because they speak English - mga house tours, si Slater, Jessica Lee, Caco of AutoDeal.
Si Oliver Austria lang ata okay na mostly Filipino gamit, but I stopped years ago kasi nagiging cringey na yung self-aware tito jokes.
