Caitlin's videos should be used in employee training to mentally prepare food service and retail workers for the different types of customers they'll have to deal with
This actually makes me sad for her character because some people really go all out for their birthday in the hopes it’ll make up for the incredible loneliness they feel every other day of the year. They milk all the love and affection they get on their birthday because it’s so fleeting. I’m imagining the “flowers on her doorstep” didn’t even happen, she just pretends to make herself feel better.
right! literally my first thought. if this ISN'T your first thought and you just jump straight to haha laaaame...ya probably need to stop and be thankful lol 😭
Sure, but don't forget there are people out there who actually do this despite having plenty of support and love in their life, they just still have to seek extra attention because they aren't really happy inside.
Asking the barista how their day is going with full expectation that they will reciprocate and ask her the same question, as a conversational courtesy, so that she can then go ahead and ramble on and on about herself is annoyingly accurate.
As a seasoned casino worker. You spot them a mile off. Huge angry smile as they approach, before jokingly insulting you before they have even sat down. Within five minutes, after getting name rank and serial number, and not an iota of emotion more, they shut up and get on with it. As Rawlings said, "the most powerful weapons available to man are words".
My heart was pounding when you said the "screw it, I'm gonna get a cupcake today it's a special day" because I knew where it would lead. It's like watching someone set up a bear trap in your pathway and you fully know you are going to walk into it, but you're required to keep going forward
I would have done something very public and passive aggressive to subtley humiliate her. Then lost my job for it, and ended up sleeping on friends couches, and deeply regretting the whole thing.
Wait, it's YOU!!!!! I used to watch your videos sooo much as a teenager! :D That was like a decade ago haha, it's been a while but I recognised your name and now I'm a teeny bit emotional lol
The way she keeps cutting her eyes around the shop to decide when to start yakking for maximum attention-grabbing effectiveness is so on point. Also, the humble brag about *two* bouquets of flowers is accurate.
I’ve never felt called out by one of Kaitlin’s videos until now 😂 I used to do this when I was in my early 20s because I felt so alone and wanted someone to be happy for me even if it was a stranger 😂
Aw Nina hope things improved for you and that you have had happier birthdays since! And there's nothing evil about wanting some extra emotional comfort on an extra day. You had only had to do as other humans are uncomfortable with people saying "you know what, I feel lonely today and I'd appreciate some support" .😊
How the fuck do you allow yourself to reach that point? I'm in my late 20, never had friends, always been desperate for affection, but I'd rather gouge my eyes out than to try to attract the attention of strangers for no reason
@@bacicinvatteneaca we're all different people. Maybe you're just more easily embarrassed. Maybe you should attract the attention of strangers to have a conversation and exchange numbers! Mostly kidding though, I understand why you wouldn't want to do that.
@@sovka8394 you know when you can't stop forcing a smile because you're witnessing something too embarrassing, and then your jaw starts to actually hurt from pressing your upper and lower teeth too much?
This actually made me kinda sad cause with this amount of showing off, I don’t think anybody actually wished her a happy birthday 😞 so she’s trying to get that attention from strangers
I really saw this person when I was studying at the coffee shop at Barnes Noble. She was already midconversation with another stranger about a book he was reading regarding inner peace. She kept on bringing up the fact it was her birthday but she doesn't need to celebrate as long as she has inner peace lol. "It's my bday but it doesn't matter as long as me and my daughter are healthy that's all I care about.". I actually felt kinda bad for her because she always looked stressed.
Another fellow barista here, who worked on my birthday last month and managed to not mention to anyone that it was my birthday. Also stopped by work the next day on my way to my date with myself to see Barbie, in full glam, and still didn't feel compelled to tell randoms that it was my birthday. But I feel this SO HARD 😂
You know, while she might be fishing for compliments or validation, I actually would not mind this interaction. If there's one day you should receive a bit of attention, it's your birthday. Plus she was pretty polite throughout. One of the few Caitlin Reilly characters I didn't instantly dislike lol
I don't think anyone should be fishing for attention from random strangers, especially in such an over the top way. It puts an unnecessary and awkward burden on everyone else.. Although if I worked in customer service, I'd rather have to deal with someone like her than someone who's rude or cruel. Plus I feel bad for her. She's clearly very lonely, so I can't hate her.
I feel bad for these types of people... Clearly she doesn't have many people who remember it and tell her, or get her a cupcake for her special day. I know people like this so I always try to remember for them. I definitely get why it's annoying for a worker though... I work in customer service and I wouldn't mind if they were the only customer or it was a slow day
I was trying to find a good way to write how she says “thank you” and this is brilliant. I also came up with “think yiel” which sounds almost identical when I play it through text to speech 😂
The stretching out of the tension over multiple minutes was enough to send me into cardiac arrest, the level of cringe is so accurate, amazing work as always Caitlin
@@Classiclover4ever SAME, I started looking for the exit about when she said "I'll just wait right here" and didn't back away from the counter 😂 She got so much worse after that too 😭
@@Classiclover4ever and the whole time I'm thinking "I _cannot_ believe this stuff happens in real life!" Imagine the level of cringe you would feel in person right, next to her 😬 lol
Awww 😭😭 she really knows how to show you a glimpse into a character's world from the outside. Like thinking about why this woman is so insistent and trying to have a good birthday, while also looking nervously around, and still being polite if not a bit overbearing. Like there is a whole world inside her here and this is like a 2 minute sketch lol
Beginning to realize that it’s genuinely impressive how she can make these characters feel so realistic and familiar without us actually having to experience some of these incredibly specific archetypes because she’s just so good at diving into the fake psychology in these characters and expressing their thoughts and emotions in realistic ways that we’re all used to.
She was so adorable- genuinely cheerful & polite, & I was rooting for her. ... Then came the silence & those darting looks.. This was an emotional rollercoaster😅
Love how the moment she's inconvenienced (waiting on the cupcake) she flips the switch to Karen even though she's having the best day evarrr!!! So accurate.
That was the only time I really disliked the character, but it kinda made the rest of the interaction more suspect. Otherwise, she could just be someone a little lonely or needy; but that part of the scene just made her look like a butt
@emiliabolsas and then not having the order ready to shoot from her lips at lightning speed when she hung up - if I were working there, I'd have either walked off to do something else or yelled,"NEXT!" before she hung up.
Working at a pet supply place made this an entirely different experience lol when someone said it was their dog’s birthday we would give them a whole baggie of free treats and it made me so happy to hear
I'm a terrible person. I get these type of people at my checkout, they say stuff like that and I just go "oh OK, that'll be 4,99$ please. Cash or card?" with a stone cold face. 😂😂😂😂😂
I blame School while growing up for this,the kids wished you happy birthday and the teacher made a fuss, in my class we all got cupcakes. Adult world comes and nobody cares, we miss cupcakes. Lol
You have to admit...seeing "Sweet 16" on MTV and seeing other people get full blown parties didn't help lol. I used to think I was such a looser because no one ever threw me a surprise party
This clip gave me anxiety. My goodness the nuanced, rich yet subtle emotional facial expressions... especially when she is offended that they forgot her cupcake....it's incredibly well done.
It doesn’t make you cringe cause she’s bad at acting. It’s that she’s SO good that she makes you believe the insufferable characters she portrays. You gotta post more often Cait 😂
Let’s see…her name is either Megan or Tiffany and she can’t come to terms with that fact that after she hit 21, adult birthdays don’t get acknowledged the same way. She got a nice bouquet of flowers from her boyfriend and he’s planning a nice but low-key dinner for the two of them. Her family and friends awkwardly tell her that they can’t easily make time during the week for a party. She gets sincere birthday texts from people, but they all have their own adult lives and can’t make her birthday their priority today. Her birthday celebration is basically wrapped up by 8pm, and she wears a plastic princess crown while eating cake in the bathtub and crying/sulking about how she’s not “the birthday girl” anymore, and it’s just another day of the week.
She’s got a better life than me. She has a boyfriend and gets sincere texts. I’m 31 and single and have no friends and haven’t gotten a happy birthday text in years. I feel super sorry for myself
I love how realistic she is!! This is why I have Starbucks Rewards, Chick-fil-A, Chipotle, Dunkin, and whatnot. You get free stuff on your birthday without having to inconvenience others. My introverted half self would want to hide under a ditch than do this 😆🤣
This is painfully accurate, there are folks like this and all you can do is carefully look over and just wonder. What in God’s name are they really going through
Probably not, I wouldn't. Why not? Because I learned my lesson not to. Story example: "happy birthday!" The lady turned around and was like "omg thank youuuuu~ sooo muchhhh. You are so sweet ❤️" I then thought that would be the end of it, just happy acknowledgement as a stranger and I would go back to my phone while I waited silently in line like everyone else, but nope, the birthday lady had moved over next to me (she had already ordered), and was standing right beside me. In my personal space, in fact. It was a little toooo close. "My bff just texted me and we are going out to my birthday dinner. 😄" the lady announced happily, her face right up close to mine. Me: "uh, ok? Good for you....." "I'm also going to the movies, shopping, and getting a manicure today...(continues to ramble on and on and onnnn about what the rest her birthday day will be like) Me: "uh, ok? Can you move? I have to order my drink" Lady:"But aren't you my friend now??" Me: "uhhh, no..? Why would I be your friend?" Lady: "oh...but I thought we were. :( Now I feel sad. My birthday is ruined. Now I wanna cry. 😭" (People whisper in the store give you weird looks cause of how you ruined a lady's birthday) "Here birthday sweetheart, have a free cupcake." The store owner tells the lady, giving me the stink eye. ^so that's why you don't say happy birthday, because if you do acknowledge a narcissist they will think you are their new bff and make you feel bad, then they will cry and everyone around you will look judge you and think you are a bad person.
Wishing a lady such as this a happy birthday brings more problems, it's better to ignore people like this because they just want attention/special treatment.
Caitlin Reilly i need you to know that ive never felt how much the emotions love and hate can be so simultaneous until i started watching your videos and ive only become all the worse for it thank you
My favorite moment is the pause in which you can physically see the rising panic due to not getting enough attention… 😂 cue the “Oh my godddddd” ☠️ SO good
I dont even respond to people who want validation from others.Both for my sake and theirs. They need to get used to the idea that people around them don't really care.
You know, on a serious note, the more I watch these the more I connect mannerisms (that I thought where annoying about certain people) to actual inner issues that some people may have from their personal lives lacking. Of course it’s a funny skit, but I never really thought of it as I stated above. So thank you for your content, you’re a beautiful person
The change of expression like a mask dropping and the watchful eyes when she steps back from the counter and isn't getting the reaction she wants gave me a little shiver of latent PTSD. I'm grateful the person it reminded me of is not in our day to day lives anymore...
the absolute need for validation from strangers because her own friends and family won’t give it to her is spot on
Agreed, if you don't get validation at home, you seek it everywhere.
Oh but she received two bouquets 💐 ‘in one day’ silly 😜 and even her frenemies from 7th grade remember her birthday 🎂 🎁 🍰 🙃

It was a little toooo close.
"My bff just texted me and we are going out to my birthday dinner. 😄" the lady announced happily, her face right up close to mine.
Me: "uh, ok? Good for you....."
"I'm also going to the movies, shopping, and getting a manicure today...(continues to ramble on and on and onnnn about what the rest her birthday day will be like)
Me: "uh, ok? Can you move? I have to order my drink"
Lady:"But aren't you my friend now??"
Me: "uhhh, no..? Why would I be your friend?"
Lady: "oh...but I thought we were. :( Now I feel sad. My birthday is ruined. Now I wanna cry. 😭"
(People whisper in the store give you weird looks cause of how you ruined a lady's birthday)
"Here birthday sweetheart, have a free cupcake." The store owner tells the lady, giving me the stink eye.
^so that's why you don't say happy birthday, because if you do acknowledge a narcissist they will think you are their new bff and make you feel bad, then they will cry and everyone around you will look judge you and think you are a bad person.
Wishing a lady such as this a happy birthday brings more problems, it's better to ignore people like this because they just want attention/special treatment.
@@specialtwice4975 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 it brings more problems…no cap!!!!
@@specialtwice4975 I know you made this up but it’s so relatable 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Ok this one was so rough I couldn't get to the end, I had to stop watching that. Caitlin is a genius
Caitlin Reilly i need you to know that ive never felt how much the emotions love and hate can be so simultaneous until i started watching your videos and ive only become all the worse for it thank you
Acting is spot on. This video speaks to a larger conversation about validation and loneliness.
Oh no, she just keeps on going
The smiles and giggles are haunting 😂
Caitlin is such a good actress that she triggers my fight or flight and I don’t even work in food service anymore
I hate these kinds of customers. I just wanna yell like Sheldon cooper "GET OUT!!!" 😂
*Seeking validation from total strangers on her birthday must feel like a new level of low*
My favorite moment is the pause in which you can physically see the rising panic due to not getting enough attention… 😂 cue the “Oh my godddddd” ☠️ SO good
I dont even respond to people who want validation from others.Both for my sake and theirs. They need to get used to the idea that people around them don't really care.
Omg. You posted this THE DAY of my friends birthday and she's very annoying on this particular day. This is the video i needed right now 😅
I remember someone saying 'if you have to constantly tell people its your birthday then you dont have friends.' lol
How's that funny and not sad?
You coming out with this during Virgo season is a direct attack 🫣
You're so good at acting out observational comedy. You've got the behaviour of some humans to a tee. Love it😂
That "I am so nice but I will literally stab all of you in the face if you don't get my cupcake" vibe.
2:18- Why shes so good ❤
Physically cannot finish this one sorry. Great work. Too great.
I had to pause twice while watching this cause it hurt so badly. My nails and lips are chewed to shreds. LOVE YOU CAITLIN XOXO
You know it’s good when it fills you with incandescent rage.
This is so so sooo accurate I mean at the same time it's irritating too 😂🤣
THE "Screw it" MADE ME RECOIL
this is so good i literally started zoning out after she started talking about her day
Aww, I feel so sorry for her. She just needs a hug and for the whole shop to sing Happy birthday to her. A free cupcake wouldn't hurt either 🧁😂
I've dealt with much worse however she never ceases to amaze me!!! 😂❤🙏
The way she acts one way on the surface and then reveals her real feelings is brilliant
I actually enjoy finding out it’s someone’s birthday 😊But well done as always, Caitlyn!
How fitting that I came across this today as it is ACTUALLY 🌟 my birthday 🌟 **tucks hair behind ear**
🎉🎉..we missed you
You know, on a serious note, the more I watch these the more I connect mannerisms (that I thought where annoying about certain people) to actual inner issues that some people may have from their personal lives lacking. Of course it’s a funny skit, but I never really thought of it as I stated above. So thank you for your content, you’re a beautiful person
This hurts to watch. I wanna throw the cupcake that she ordered in her face.😂 Well done Caitlin ❤
I have a sister in law who acts this way. Ugh it makes my skin crawl. Great Job the way, you nailed it
The change of expression like a mask dropping and the watchful eyes when she steps back from the counter and isn't getting the reaction she wants
gave me a little shiver of latent PTSD.
I'm grateful the person it reminded me of is not in our day to day lives anymore...
I literally couldn't get through this in one go. Your acting is way too good
That's so sad, really. Great job! I was getting so irritated! 🤣
this literally hurts me physhically. thank you, Caitlin.
Thank you for coming back! You've been missed! ❤
God girl.... this was a hard one to get through. When I worked retail this was a common occurrence.
This is my favourite horror channel
Why are you hurting us, Caitlin? 😂
I was fine with this interaction until exactly @1:11
That is when you sent me into an illogical rage. This hurt.
and it KEPT GOINGG AAAA. these videos are excellent but man are they infuriating
That Was Great😂😂🙏🏽🙏🏽
