FR.
Ok most of us know that when we are trawling around malls and shops, there's at least a slight likelihood that we're being filmed. We may not like it, we may be vaguely disgruntled by it but we still know it's a possibility.
Few of us want to have our nose-picking or arse-scratching wending it's way around the world but unless we have an eye on the main chance , how many of us would leap up and say * It was meeeeeee*.
The (more than I'd freely admit) times I overloaded my buggy with shopping bags and had to rescue my toddler who ended up squawking skywards would be quite amusing. Kids falling backwards off of a swing is funny, OAP's skidding up while dancing is funny. Slapstick stuff IS funny.
RF almost getting his eye poked by an umbrella is funny.......me sliding down the stairs like a cartoon cat is funny. The WHOLE reason we find it funny is that it could be us.....but it was *them*.....
Of course, you COULD have (and she has), decided that everyone around you was horribly negligent during the self-inflicted humiliation.
You COULD decide that the fact that it was a nicked bit of footage, made the humiliation so much worse...Nah and double nah. She was a *body that did a pratty thing*. She did what many of us do, or have done, and got sploshed while doing so.
It doesn't matter whether she was texting a member of her church, or a punter she was about to shag. She just did something lots of people have done, or just avoided doing.No-one having a chuckle cares who she was texting...lol
It's not nice to laugh at others' misfortune :).....but we still do.
She got up and scuttled off a lot quicker than I would have.....Fair-play to that woman. She had quite a lot of speed applied to her wits, in more ways than one. ...lol
