    @RoseRose-pc4dd 5 лет назад +88

    I think this sketch means to highlight the way people usually take advantage of the question "Is this free?" When people ask that, they expect the other person to say yes and that's it. It's the norm. But when the main character in this sketch starts asking/saying random things to people when they ask him "Is this free?", they're taken aback. And this is the intention of the sketch. People are so used to getting an affirmative response to the question and nothing more. The entire interaction is done without thinking. So I think this sketch just shows how people react when they're thrown off guard by his "strange" responses to their question. It shows that they're really not thinking - they're just doing what society has ingrained into them, almost habituated to it.
    This is MY understanding of what the sketch means.

      Very good detailed interpretation, often people don't think all scenarios and fill brain based on shade they see of person and on human limitations in these stranger situations, interactions happen based on what has been told to judge in the assumed way and do the fillers on how the person is. This sometimes acts ok and helps but can end up in disasters too more than one can expect of on free offers situations with strangers if not proceeded with caution.This angle is my addition interpretation to yours :).

    It's about how we take for granted that everything is free but it will costs us something in return, like privacy and how we give away our data without really giving out consent. it looks weird when a stranger asks you for some personal questions, like when he asked the girl some intrusive questions, or tried to build a profile of his ideology for just a seat. yet on line these type of behavior is considered totally normal if it's the service providers who are doing it. at least that's my take on it. might be right, might be wrong.

    The question, "Is this free?", is a sad reflection of how humans often fail at communication. Of course, this imprecise question can be answered in a number of ways, many of which may confound the person asking the question, as evidenced in the video. A more precise question would be " May I share your table", or "Would you mind if I sit here?"
    This video is a reminder that words matter, and how we put them together in a sentence can influence how others react to us. Good job! Great video!

    @raymondngu3026 7 лет назад +9

    That was brilliant! Half the time when someone asks me if the seat is taken, they already have their hands on it or their belongings down. They already expect to sit there. It's more a polite way of saying I want the seat. If you go to a cafe like Starbucks this happens quite often.

    @emboujarppunen6470 10 лет назад +75

    I don't know what to think of this. This really wasn't funny to me, it was just kind of dull.The funniness was supposed to come from the questions, I think, from the weirdness of them, but I just didn't see the appeal of watching a guy doing things and other people reacting to it. It was like if someone had scripted a prank video or something. Kinda cringy and strange.

    • @MsHojat
      @MsHojat 10 лет назад +3

      I agree. It sounds like what you're saying is that one of it's main problems is that everything is completely contrived, and not even necessarily realistic. That's at least the issue I have. Much of his reactions were just quite bland or cheesy too.

    • @Quarker
      @Quarker 10 лет назад +4

    • @FatalBlow113
      @FatalBlow113 10 лет назад +2

      Yea, if the video was compressed into just 5, or even 7 minutes it would have been fine. I think it would have been funnier if he had REALLY done this, but to me it looked like a prank video WITHIN a movie, but the reactions weren't funny at all, there was a whole lot of dead space, meaning silence or nothingness that went on. it was a great concept that just didn't go over well. I would still rate this a 3.5 stars out of 5.

      +Deanna Radiant That's because you're right - it isn't AT ALL funny. This is overly forced and too sure of itself, hence it fails to be funny. Also, people who resort to gratuitous profanity to take the place of ACTUAL, CLEVER HUMOUR are lazy and their jokes will fall flat - it's the idiot's way of conceiving a joke - pad it out with swearing to make up for the lack of ingenuity in the "jokes"

    • @xeno126
      @xeno126 9 лет назад +10

      +Deanna Radiant It's funny, not the last part exactly, but his talk with the others. It's also an invitation to be creative when asked if a seat on your table is free. The direct opposition of what is considered total common sense can be humorous.
