people who wave their hands around in videos, empasizing every single syllable — to make their videos feel more “alive” and, I dunno… video-y? — are 100% making me close their videos faster than you can say “like & subscribe”. (Also: it makes them look like Muppets.)
I don’t mean people who naturally talk with their hands; this is highly intentional, artificial, and beyond distracting.
This has been episode 713 of Chris Criticizes Everything™. Tune in next time for “Jump cuts are terrible”. 🤦♂️
