AGDQ - Biggest Cringe Livestream Moment

[rjamesnigh]

Her choosing to knit the last "special" piece of her late grandmas yarn at a speed run event was the first mistake

[cartib]

Dad’s words echoed in my head “There’s a time and a place for everything, but not now.”

[AnimeDreamer]

if anyone needs an example of a "conversational hostage", this is it

[Dudeunperfect]

4hrs into a run.. "Can you stop"

[eddtoon]

Dude lost like 3 seconds from that clap

[lactate]

Doing this in a room full people with no communication skills was brilliant

[JJsiN]

Read the room there’s plenty of places for emotional support and a gamers speed running event is the last place you want to be.

The relief on everyones faces when that dude in the background broke that never-ending awkwardness by saying "I think your knitting deserves a round of applause", like everyone thought "good, now we can move on back to the speedrun".

[ImMata]

I feel like she was only knitting so that she could tell that story

[NTWoo]

Its sad that Bo Burnham can't even play games without being interrupted

[phantomspaceman]

This whole video is black comedy gold, you can't write something this funny and wrong unless you've lived it.

[InterDimensionalLizard]

Something's wrong with that woman's head. The speed runner shouldn't have to deal with that kind of treatment. He should be able to go about his business, in his elf costume. I'm glad he didn't pause.

[riton]

- "I have cancer."
- The speedrunner: 🗿

[PuffyOne]

Man if I was link, I would've turned around and said, "WELL ME, PRINCESS!"

[zebraneighbor]

"I don't know if you guys have noticed but I've been knitting the entire time I've been here..."
No, nobody noticed because they came to watch a Zelda speedrun, not to pay attention to a random audience member doing a distinctly non-Zelda related activity.

[muik.]

The dude looks so pissed off when he had to pause and clap for her 😂

[GoodFuude]

she really expected the guy playing to just stop & pause the game and for everyone in that room to face towards her and emit some compassion and empathy for her in a speedrunning event 😂

[Adjni]

the whole thing is made more hilarious because of the Link costume.

[thefantasyreview]

This is pretty much the ultimate cringe video, because its a perfect storm of awkward. (1)She starts off talking and asks him to stop, and he appears to ignore her. (2)Despite that she continues about her imminent life threatening cancer issue, which is partially drowned out by ridiculous cute game sounds. (3) She says "I'm not sure if you guys had noticed, but I've been knitting all the time" - which implies the whole room had been looking at her wondering why she was knitting, when they clearly weren't
(4)"I'm pretty much going to die of cancer" She doesn't really know that, and its not the sort of thing most people would say (5)The whole room is full of young nerdy guys, who completely do not know how to deal with the situation, so the entire room sits there silently and is awkward. (6)The guy playing can't hear her, so continues playing, seemingly ignoring her, with no compassion. (7)Then finally she starts crying, and the whole room claps, and one person gives her a hug - the guy claps for ten seconds, and goes back to playing.
You probably can't fit any more cringe factors into a 2 minutes video.

lol based Link fights to eliminate cancer, the weeping and sorrow of its victims doesn't slow him for an instant
