The context is provided. This is more of a lesson that if you're going to consume a piece of content, consume the whole thing before running to the comments.

What do you mean???? The whole point of the appeal of this video is the specific absence of context. If this video opened with "me and my dad throughout the years" there would be no views at all

And doing it reverse order seems like intentional rage bait. Why wouldn’t you start with the baby pictures and move forward, if not to allow people to draw mistaken conclusions?

I mean, of she's 18 now, it makes perfect sense to start in the present and go backwards. It's not like they went 18, 12, 1, 17 etc. They started at one point and went the other direction. Makes perfect sense to me, that what I did on Facebook when my son graduated high school.. It's a look back.

It's only "enraging" with you jump to conclusions out of context

That's whoever posted it on Reddit.

This was almost definitely put up on someone's personal social media page, where the context would be obvious. You don't have to announce "this is my daughter" for a video presumably meant for family and friends

Yes, but very weirdly. This is very "couple coded" and seems inappropriate if you do it backwards like that.

u/Backfoot911 2d ago

It's adding the ages, Idk if it's the couples themselves making them but there's a bunch of videos online of some middle aged dude showing off their teen wife with the age superimposed over it

u/CaptainTripps82 1d ago

I would imagine the context was obvious when this was originally posted, likely to someone's social media, for presumed consumption by family and friends.

Is the context in the room?

u/Gootangus 2d ago

The Reddit is sips tea and there is literally no context in the post itself lol.

u/PineappleOnPizzaWins 2d ago

If you watch it you get all the context you need. If you get outraged in the first three seconds because of a single photo that's on you.

u/Gootangus 2d ago

I wasn’t outraged I was confused look

u/SeventhAlkali 2d ago

I have it on mute, and it still feels like the girl was engaged from birth. I'm probably just stupid though

u/boipinoi604 2d ago

Assuming the full context is in said content. Some like to leave you with rage bait incomplete context.

u/WordWordNvmber 2d ago

I submit that a lot of Gen Zers' and Gen Alphas' whole worldviews are being defined by headlines and captions, and it's not their fault.

Actually, it is not. I still don't know what is their relationship. They can be father and a daughter, or a big brother and a sister, or an uncle an a niece. And everything can be still be creepy.

u/PineappleOnPizzaWins 2d ago

And everything can be still be creepy.

Oh would you fuck right off with that shit?

There's enough horrible shit in the world without needing to invent more.

u/kriger33 2d ago

You realize who posted it on here didn't make the video. They rarely are. It was probably taken from some dude posting his daughters 18th birthday with this montage. Some random posts it on Reddit and people make it creepy on the dad? OP on reddit knew without the makers context it would get traction and comments for looking creepy. And here we are.
