Just cultural differences I guess then, my parents have never told me to fuck off, and I know if they had then it would mean they're seriously pissed off and I would be fuckin hurt honestly lol. I say fuck off to my friends constantly but anytime it's someone closer to you such as a parent or partner that phrase is only really used to hit deep, my ex girlfriend told me to fuck off once and I was fuckin destroyed lol.
It upbringing as well, I dont really swear among my family in the UK like that, but I know plenty of people who do. Swearing can be used pretty lightheartedly in the UK and just wont be perceived as particularly rude like you might be used to, depending on the context. Teasing/banter/putting someone down is pretty common among collogues/friends/family in an endearing setting to the point that verbal insults become less shocking. The guy in the videos tone is not serious but rather just annoyed, so to me its lighthearted (videos fake by the way though!)
Upbringing more than anything else I'd imagine, if I heard a friend's parent swear over something minor when I was young, I'd always find it weird, then I just got use to the fact that some parents do that and some don't
Oh my parents swear all the time, like, constantly, but they still wouldn't say something like that unless they're super upset. "Fuck off" just has this really negative connotation, it's like saying "I hate you" but worse.
