Yelling At Your TV : Othor Games

» Wed Jul 27, 2011 6:02 pm

There are times where I watch a show and will shout at the TV "YOU MORON" or "YOU BLEEPING IDIOT". Just curious are there others out there that will watch a program then yell at the TV like they are having a conversation with an invisible person?

Only when I see clips from Fox News.

Yep, either out of frustration (e.g. when someone says something I disagree with and no one pulls them up on it) or when I'm watching quiz shows and I know the answer. That one doesn't happen very often so I get excited if I can say the answer before the contestant.

[Edit] Yes, I know I'm sad.

Only when I'm watching Sports or Phil Goff comes on.

When college football is on there tends to be a lot of yelling going on in my house.

I also tend to talk to the screen, not really yell but kinda like "Wow you're an idiot, have fun getting shot."

No. :huh:

I frequently yell at you lot.

No...

Though I do yell at the computer screen when I read these forums.

Shout? No. Comment on something? Rarely. Usually i just use gestures.

...No, not that one.

With you being a Stealth Agent, wouldn't that be counterproductive?

:foodndrink:

Other than the above, not particularly. Occasionally I will yell "GO BACK!" "YOUR LEFT!", and stuff like that at my computer screen if I'm watching a Let's Play on Youtube and they miss something important or obvious.

Actually I'm a double agent acting as a stealth agent. NCR FTW!.

I mean ahemm... you are correct sir.

Well I don't actually have television (I have a television, but I use it as my computer monitor) so I can't really yell at TV a lot, but when i watch things on Netflix I tend to comment on how extremely stupid a character's choice in whatever they choose to do is.

"No! Don't pick up the sword! It isn't called the 'Evil Sword of Ultimate Doom' for nothing!"

I tend to yell at video games a lot. In fact, just a few days ago, playing Neverwinter Nights, I nearly yelled myself to the point where I almost couldn't yell anymore over a really, really tough fight that, it turns out, I could have just skipped for more EXP.

I might mutter something to myself out of disbelief, but never yell. Even that's rare though.

I yelled alot at Neverwinter Nights too. Mostly cause it was crap.

Not really. I've yelled at the computer alot, particularly loudly at this instance: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xIBkb_y7Cpw&feature=channel_video_title. Gix is one of all time favorite youtubers, but at about 1:20 in, all I could do was face-palm.

Well that's mean. Although I haven't actually played the game even once. All I've been playing since I bought it are modules. There are some damn good ones out there, let me tell you. And hard. So very hard.

I shake my head or facepalm at tv happenings but I don't talk to or yell at my tv. Most of my life I've been surrounded by tv talkers so even if I had wanted to talk to the people on the other side of the screen I wouldn't have been able to get a word in edgewise.

Never yell only comment .
Just a second ago I was watching then local news, and the news lady said this "coming up on channle 4 news, the weather and was does a tennessee mother think when find here daughter dead in a landfill coming up at 6:30" I muttered wow the news is [censored].

I yell at gta4 when the hit -everything-in-sight-unintentionaly-glitch happens.

I'll sometimes say something while gaming, but it's mainly just swearwords. In the case of Portal 2, they were directed at myself for not realising the solution sooner. :pinch:

Wow... that's why I barely watch the news anymore.

No and why would I yell at my TV? :huh:

That, and at the computer screen. Heck, I just did so 10 minutes ago. Man, Bleach is making me want to rage quit.

I most commonly yell at horror movies. If it's a good movie, I"ll stay quiet aside from the occasional obligatory "DON'T GO THERE YOU IDIOT!" If it's a bad movie, I'm usually screaming and yelling at the characters like a madwoman.

I also quite often yell at my games. Or, weirdly, I make sound effects at them....Like on Prototype, when I'm jumping around I'll make effort noises...sort of like a tennis player...Or with hammerfists, I'll yell "BAM! BAM!! WHEEE!"

....Huh. And I wonder why I have no friends....
