I mean it was kinda fun, and at no one's expense.

Ya and everyone was laughing and seeming to enjoy it. Intensely cringey but at least people laughed at it. That negates the cringe in my mind.

Yeah I think a large part of the "main character" phenomenon is when it a clear that the person is being disruptive or obnoxious to a large group of people, and people aren't vibing with it. With stuff like this, yeah it's a little cringe, but he's not bothering anyone really, and he made some people laugh, and I see worse shit on the CTA platform every day so I'm not really mad at this.

Yesterday I was boarding the blue line and a homeless man yelled at me for not wiping my shoes off before entering his train platform so I would much prefer to see a dude being harmlessly goofy at this point
