Funniest Social Media Fails Of The Week #4 – REACTION

1. The "Korean film" one reminds me of my time as a foreign exchange student in the US. I am from Germany and people in the US constantly asked me which language was easier to learn German (my native language, obviously) or English 😀 Or they asked me why I even bothered learning to speak German, because I already speak English. Some people need to understand that even though english is a widespread language, each country has it's own language, sometimes even several official languages. There are African countries that use more than 200 different languages and dialects at the same time, depending on the region. It's like the concept of learning and using a second or third language besides your mothertongue is a strange concept to many Americans…in Germany you can't even graduate from highschool without having learned at least two foreign languages. I learned english and spanish in highschool and then chinese, turkish, arabic and vietnamese in addition to my studies in university. In Europe it is really common to speak at least two languages fluently and often times even more than that. In my opinion this leads to a better intercultural understanding. Language reflects so much cultural identity and you will only understand another culture, if you understand the language.

2. Watermelons are berrys….

3. I love watching your channel you have it in the bag I can totally see you with your tv-show thanks for the laughs after a long day at work genuinely funny!!

4. Watermelons are actually a berry, just learned that recently ?

5. I was told yesterday to do my research after I had spent five hours doing research! Hahahahahhahahhaha

6. the oklahoma thing is real btw

7. tf is an official state vegetable?

8. he just wants to get to nose you

9. 10:36 for those who still believe stupidity is limited to America.

10. My bff in high school did the reverse and put oil in her wiper fluid reservoir.

11. hyd is Hyderabad situated in India lol

12. Why did that weirdo have to involve us swedes in their madness. Though… she doesn’t make me change my views… ? The kids on the other hand ?

13. Dumb should hurt.

14. Something I recently learned: a vegetable just stands for a plant you can eat. So, a watermelon IS a fruit, but it's also a vegetable lol

15. Watermelon is actually a cucurbit so technically it's a vegetable.. but we handle it as fruit anyways 😀

16. Your TikTok face reminds me of Alexis and David from Schitt's Creek, lol.

17. Bird…leaf… I approve.

18. Hyd is short form for Hyderabad, a city in India.

19. I actually had to research about the Lebanese joke cuz i didn't get it, only to later realize that it is a reading mixup… "Lebanese" looks like "lesbian" to some people. Mk.
    I kinda get the "cologne"/"colon" mixup, "cinnamon"/"synonym", but this…

20. 4:24 That was a twofer! The gag, then the garage door. Fucking RL slapstick.

21. Do we really need that incessant clucking?

22. 5:51 reminds me of the (? late 1970s) British Airways advertising for Concorde "Breakfast in London, lunch in New York" to which some unknown genius added "luggage in Delhi".

23. stupid camt be fixed.

24. Fun Fact: Watermelon is botanically a vegetable. It belongs to the same botanical family (Cucurbitaceae) as pumpkins or cucumbers. It just tastes sweet. And delicious. And yummy… nom nom

25. Charlotte calling Hyderabad as hy-dera-bad
    Me being Indian – lol ???

26. since watermelon is grown as a vegetable crop using vegetable production systems, watermelon is considered a vegetable … huh … learn something new every day

27. i wonder what that person thinks about the platypus – technically it's a mammal but has venom, a bill, and lays eggs… she probably thinks humans aint animals too

28. for a moment i thought you were checking if watermelon was a fruit rather than checking if it was actually Oklahoma's state veg

29. 5:28 — Hyd is short for Hyderabad, city in India. so is Calcutta. IndiGo is an Indian airline.

    8:24 — it’s a valid question that could’ve been worded a bit better. let’s not pretend English isn’t used for films from other countries made by filmmakers native to that country, casted by natives to tell a story about those natives. it happens all the time unfortunately especially if the filmmaker hopes to have a wide release of the film in English dominant countries b|c they, specifically americans, tend to be lazy, ethnocentric, + arrogant + think the world should cater to + revolve around us. (remember that question about why Brits speak English, an “american language” + not their own? ? yea. exactly.)

    that’s why i’ve seen//heard of plenty foreign films w| English as the original or main language despite it not being the mother tongue of the filmmaker, cast, or characters.

30. Watermelon is in the same family as cucumbers. So technically it can be referred to as a vegetable.

31. Everywhere else it is considered a fruit, but in Oklahoma the watermelon has been officially declared a vegetable. And not just any vegetable, Oklahoma's house of representatives yesterday voted to award the watermelon the honour of official state vegetable.Apr 18, 2007

32. Indians do be Asians unless they're Native American who are still reffered to as Indians lmao

33. Ok but how are you this cute!

34. Another fun fact about Oklahoma because I grew up there. The state flower is mistletoe. Yes it technically does flower. But yo that’s a parasite.

35. "Asian people" is not a thing. It's silly. No one identifies themselves as "Asian", unless it's on a US census from (or similar document). People who live in that general area usually identify themselves belonging their country of origin, which is generally a cultural-linguistic group.

    For example, Korean people do not think of themselves as members of an Asian genus that includes Japanese people.

    India is different. In the field of geography India is a part of Asia–only for simplicity since it's connected. It's culturally the center of a different civilization. That's one reason you'll read or hear it referred to as the "Indian subcontinent." I think people from India tend to identify first as a primary cultural-language group such as Punjabi, Gujarati, Bengali, Tamil, Telugu, and so on. These are subdivisions of the two main groups in India, Indo-Aryan and Dravidian. These are again, primarily linguistic groups.

    I suppose this will come off as a rant. Oops! I didn't mean it that way. I think that the way we get taught to think about people is not very accurate.

36. I debate antivaxxers on social media for fun. If I had a buck for every time I was told to ‘do my research’…

37. Hi Dare Bad , LOL

38. The Lebanese post made me think of an episode of The Golden Girls. Dorothy’s friend is a lesbian, and Blanche gets that confused with Lebanese. ?

39. minister was spelled wrong too

40. I like the twist on the Lebanese thing. Like the video where a girl tells a younger girl that she's a lesbian. Without missing a beat the other girl replies "I thought you were American"

41. I work with birds and I will be using « bird leaf » from now on! ?

    Édit: and apparently I work with bats too ?

42. If bats are birds, why don't they have leaves? ?????

43. I have had a period and rolled my ankle like that, I ripped four tendons at the age of six. We definitely don’t have ankles.
