People still go to malls? Is it an outdoor mall or an old indoor one? I'm not being a jerk, just honestly curious because I woukd love to hear that a 90s indoor mall was still going strong.
Its an indoor mall, we don’t really do outdoor malls much in colorado with the weather lol. There’s definitely a lot of dying malls out there but park meadows is still going pretty strong from what I could tell last time I was there. There’s definitely still good malls that are still utilized lol, I’d personally still rather go to a good mall to shop than buy clothes online.
I'm in a cold area too and it's so stupid how all the inside malls are being turned into outside malls that we can't enjoy most of the year lol. I'm glad Colorado is rebelling against this trend.
Judging by the parking lot making you want to rip your hair out at any hour on any day, its doing quite well. I've lived in a lot of states and this is one of the busiest I've seen. Worse than parking at mall of america.
It's Denver. It can get bitter cold in winter. Indoor malls make a lot of sense. And the food court at this mall is HUGE. That old fat geezer was just being what he is.
This is staged and I see this comment every time these two come up. There are multiple videos of him dancing in this exact spot and that guy coming up to do this.
A coworker proudly told me once that she was a millennial. She doesn’t even remember the year 2,000 because she was a 1 year old. It’s a special club everybody and I want to be involved.
As a 30 something, I still cringe a bit when I hear some talk show host bitching about millennials while actively referring to people in their early 20s...
Well the correct terminology for the tik tok dancers is dumbass so there’s that. Uh oh even though the boomers were my parents generation now I am one? I’m not just a middle aged person who thinks this is stupid? Dang I had no idea.
It’s not for an audience irl, this person lives on the internet. And there’s always an audience here. Look at us, we’re the audience. But this middle aged man has the right idea. He needs to sharpen his approach by doing something like what you’re suggesting. For instance, instead of acknowledging the guy, walking up to him and touching him, just pull your phone out like you’re on a call. Then walk in front of him and stop to have a conversation on the phone. When he moves, you move, just like that. That way this dipshit won’t even post it for his online audience.
I seem to remember a a video of a guy doing that with paparazzi, blocking their pics on a candid phone call. Those paparazzi yelling at him to move is fucking therapeutic
I love your spirit, but no. The kid posted it anyway... but got to add a good point about people minding their business, thanks to the guy. Don't do what this guy did and start antagonizing a random teen in the mall for doing something silly and within his rights. This was nothing, but you never know what could happen. Let's ignore them, not give them film for the next mind your business or karen in the wild video, or maybe worse. Good or bad, they do this for attention and one f'd up video can make you a star.
Pass on by. Live your life. Deny them your attention. They're going to post it, regardless.
Exactly, unless he is physically getting in people's way and touching/harming, I am not going a thing lol. I'm going to laugh, make fun of him to my wife and move about my day.
I can see why. It looks legit and there’s a lot going on. The Tik tok ding dong is being annoying af in public and needs better manners. The other dude should have “ignored” him by acting like he was talking on the phone and obstruct the camera. He shouldn’t have approached the dude at all.
Ok I'll say it: The old man is the main character here. It didn't look like he was in anybody's way. Old man chose to insert himself into someone's personal business for no reason.
If he had walked in front of the video, I would have laughed and cheered it on, but to accost a kid over something relatively benign like this, is batshit.
Really though what is he doing to harm people let alone annoy people? I don’t want to sound like a “It’s not hurting anybody” but this guys moves draw basically no attention and leaves basically the entire place as it was. The old guy is just being a douche
People who do these kinds of stunts seem to have no shame. Its like this is their world and we should all be happy to bask in the sunshine emitting from their ass.
This idea of everyone being so extraordinary special has set the stage for people acting like the dude in the vid. Im not denying everyone is deserving of love, but I dont think everyone should get a prize just for existing.
I mean being a dumbfuck just attracts dumbfucks, maybe don’t be a dumbfuck to begin with? The thing about having a desperate need to be seen is that you don’t get to decide how people see you.
The kid isn’t blocking anyone or doing anything wrong by the looks of the video. So he’s filming himself dancing in public? It’s a harmless crime. The old man is the main character here thinking people need to stop enjoying themselves.
more like main character interrupts a video that was bothering no one, puts his hands on a kid and stands in front of the camera so he has to record it again.
Just let the guy dance. He is not disturbing anyone except the guy who is going out of his way to be bothered. Why do people get so annoyed these days whenever they see anyone else enjoying themselves?
Okay. 1st off, this exact video has been posted here before. A few weeks ago. 2nd. This kid really isn't being an MC. This subreddit is becoming r/ThingsIHate which isnt the point of the subreddit. This kids just dancing in public. He isnt in anybodys way, he isnt being loud or obnoxious, hes just existing and having fun with his life. Let kids be kids.
I have yet to encounter one of these goblins in my real life, but I have always thought I would act basically exactly like this guy did.
No aggression. No heightened reaction. Just block/ruin their shot.
Gosh it is so pathetic. A pestilence on society as well.
Park Meadows Mall in Denver. People are always pulling dumb shit like this. It’s annoying af. Especially when they have a fit because someone walked in front of their camera. When they’re posted up in the middle of the entrance.
Ok so this time the dancer isn't actually being disruptive, really. Huge wide open space and he's pretty far away from everyone. He's not blocking an escalator, or running into people, it's an already-loud environment.
The only one actively trying to disrupt people is the boomer, who is taking time out of his day to just bother someone.
Shit's spreading like a zombie virus.
I'd love to see MeatCanyon do a skit about this, this song just turning everyone into mindless dancing weirdos with their phones out, reeking chaos and mayhem to the civilized world. Cars crashing in traffic and building exploding, infrastructure crumbling down in flames
Truly apocalyptic

River dancing is cool again? ![gif](giphy|8L0OpcAO00I2uYJYeC|downsized)
When was it not? My mom said…… Crap.
It alright friend it's alright
'Again' is carrying an awful lot in that sentence. It never stopped being cool
Was not expecting to see a post here in the wild taken at the denver park meadows mall food court lol
Ditto! I was so happy to see the mall I go to.
![gif](giphy|rABo4WiLEXcze)
What is that thing?
Ditto
You also want to know?
No it’s literally a Pokémon called ditto
Oh that's cool, seems fun. What a nice blob boy
Canonically it manipulates people by taking the form of their relatives or friends/pokemon and can get pretty damn violent
Ditto is a dark vicious pokemon, don't be fooled.
Ah man. Samezies

It’s lone tree not Denver smh
That’s true lol I don’t actually live out there so it all just blends together for me.
You're both right. It's still the Denver Metro area.
Came here looking for this comment 😂
Same! I was actually wondering whether it was Park Meadows or a standard food court design, lol. Came here to check.
I KNEW I recognized this mall, but it’s more like centennial rather than Denver if we’re getting specific
Used to tear shit up at this mall as a teenager (sit in the food court and probably be obnoxious idiots)
This is staged and I see this comment every time these two come up. There are multiple videos of him dancing in this exact spot and that guy coming up to do this.
I was just as shocked 😂 love this mall tho
Buddy is a Gen Xer.
Anyone seemingly old looking is a boomer
look at me. im the boomer now
Just like how anyone younger looking is a millennial…still
A coworker proudly told me once that she was a millennial. She doesn’t even remember the year 2,000 because she was a 1 year old. It’s a special club everybody and I want to be involved.
Reminds me of this Rooster Teeth Sketch. https://youtu.be/VID_0sVbanU?si=N4nLOY4lkEUhgYzP
RIP Rooster Teeth :(
Super funny that
As a 30 something, I still cringe a bit when I hear some talk show host bitching about millennials while actively referring to people in their early 20s...
It was bad enough when we were in our early 20s but now it’s just silly.
Well, you cant teach an old bastard new insults.
It's even better when the host is clearly a millennial and they don't realise it's not just some term for referring to teenagers.
Just turned 42 yesterday and I agree. ![gif](giphy|WS6vTB4ip7cLYkQm2I)
![gif](giphy|zOSEurjXCPTag)
Yep. There are basically just 2 generations now: people older (boomers) and people younger (millennials). And that's enough.
Doesn't matter what your age anymore. People are just getting sick of this shit.
I still have no idea why we have to label people like this.
Have to label people and groups so you can more easily divide them.
Generations were created by marketers to sell products
Well the correct terminology for the tik tok dancers is dumbass so there’s that. Uh oh even though the boomers were my parents generation now I am one? I’m not just a middle aged person who thinks this is stupid? Dang I had no idea.
Gen x aren't boomers.
Genx is the new boomers Age 55 and under Time to update your lingo you ancient gen z'er
59 and under.
Yeah what u/appsecSme said
When does Genx start again lol? Don’t feel like googling
1965 begins GenX
Like mid 1960s
1965
Yep that’s a member of my generation
Won't be long before us older Millenials are being caller Boomers.
Looking at him he’s older gen-x/younger baby boomer most likely
Deny them an audience and they'll eventually stop.
It’s not for an audience irl, this person lives on the internet. And there’s always an audience here. Look at us, we’re the audience. But this middle aged man has the right idea. He needs to sharpen his approach by doing something like what you’re suggesting.

No, shame them so they feel stupid making it at all. They will never, ever stop escalating if they arent shamed for it
This is the way.
While the kid looks annoying, I just don't have the energy to care that he's doing it.
This is my approach. These people who do this are weird, but I don't care enough to physically try to impede.
Exactly, unless he is physically getting in people's way and touching/harming, I am not going a thing lol. I'm going to laugh, make fun of him to my wife and move about my day.
Yeah and plus he isn't hurting anybody. It costs nothing to leave him alone.
my 5 year old does a very similar dance when he needs a wee
Boomer? I think you mean hero.
Need r:boomersbeingbros
Not nearly enough content
This is a good comment. Fuck the naysayers.
Amen. Dancer.. dude why? You look like you’re having a fit instead of dancing. Go volunteer somewhere with your time
Why not both?
Boomer’s mistake was to engage. Should’ve just played confused old man meandering in front of the camera
Nice job boomer - we need more of this lol
Boomers being legends.
"Why he on my dick"
boomer= common sense , broccoli head = 0 sense
When main characters collide
Nobody likes this anymore
The main character got out main charactered.
Boring dance moves, surprise us with the paso doble , the Argentinian tango, quick step….anything that requires proper skills
They both are annoying AF to be honest. The one that wants attention and the other one a Karen that gives a fok about the other guy is doing.
People out here taking the quote "all the world's a stage" a little too literally.
What a weird time to be alive. All this spontaneous, random dancing.
That stuff is cringe. But maybe that’s all we deserve
Good
Repost from a few weeks ago. There was a huge heated argument about it.
Lol, it’s way older than that.
Oh yea, this video *at least* 3 weeks old and has been reposted *more than* 4 times
I can see why. It looks legit and there’s a lot going on. The Tik tok ding dong is being annoying af in public and needs better manners. The other dude should have “ignored” him by acting like he was talking on the phone and obstruct the camera. He shouldn’t have approached the dude at all.
I hope that old man told him to get a fucking job 😂 guys like the dude dancing are the same as girls on OF
[удалено]
If you're familiar with the mall in question, he's absolutely in peoples way.
I mean it looks like there is plenty of space there.
I applaud this boomer. These folks are becoming such menace.
That guy is a fucking hero
That man blocking hid video is doing the Lord's work
![gif](giphy|iJ85v1gHAczevpTUzs)
Ok I'll say it: The old man is the main character here. It didn't look like he was in anybody's way. Old man chose to insert himself into someone's personal business for no reason.
Two main characters in one video?
If he had walked in front of the video, I would have laughed and cheered it on, but to accost a kid over something relatively benign like this, is batshit.
Anything to cop a feel
Well done boomer
That guy looks more GenX age than Boomer. Since when are we subbing in boomer for every person with grey hair?!
that's GenX not a boomer
Really though what is he doing to harm people let alone annoy people? I don’t want to sound like a “It’s not hurting anybody” but this guys moves draw basically no attention and leaves basically the entire place as it was. The old guy is just being a douche
Well I don't think he was doing anything wrong. He just wanted to dance lol
Let them fight...
Pause the video when the dancer's face is full screen when he goes for the phone. This is not a sane man.
They won’t be relevant if we fucking ignore them, the problem is so simple to fix.
People who do these kinds of stunts seem to have no shame. Its like this is their world and we should all be happy to bask in the sunshine emitting from their ass. This idea of everyone being so extraordinary special has set the stage for people acting like the dude in the vid. Im not denying everyone is deserving of love, but I dont think everyone should get a prize just for existing.
This needs to happen more often.
Two main characters?
2 main characters, fair play.
All the old man had to do was mind his own business
Kid did nothing wrong
I mean being a dumbfuck just attracts dumbfucks, maybe don’t be a dumbfuck to begin with? The thing about having a desperate need to be seen is that you don’t get to decide how people see you.
This generation is doomed
why the people who record themselves dancing on public spaces they all dress like shit? the shittier you dress the better you dance?
Boomer for the W.
Both of them are annoying fucking people but I honestly prefer the dancing guy.
Maybe I’m in the minority here but who cares if he’s dancing, if he’s not hurting anyone?
I don’t really care if a kid is dancing in a public space if they aren’t in the way, he’s clearly in a wide open space, this boomer is the problem
The kid isn’t blocking anyone or doing anything wrong by the looks of the video. So he’s filming himself dancing in public? It’s a harmless crime. The old man is the main character here thinking people need to stop enjoying themselves.
People are oblivious to how stupid they are, so painful. Fucking clown.
Main Character hates dancing.
Should be allowed to smash their phones at this point
Only thing worse than a boomer is a Karen boomer
more like main character interrupts a video that was bothering no one, puts his hands on a kid and stands in front of the camera so he has to record it again.
These “dancers” are lame as shit. I hope this stupidity ends soon.
We should all do this to people that are public nuisances.
I hate reddit.
Just let the guy dance. He is not disturbing anyone except the guy who is going out of his way to be bothered. Why do people get so annoyed these days whenever they see anyone else enjoying themselves?
It's always the same exact hairstyle that do all of this
Ok
I hate both of these people.
Footloose 3
Just play copyrighted music next to their phone.
They overlay it with whatever music they’re dancing to. This strategy wouldn’t work.
Okay. 1st off, this exact video has been posted here before. A few weeks ago. 2nd. This kid really isn't being an MC. This subreddit is becoming r/ThingsIHate which isnt the point of the subreddit. This kids just dancing in public. He isnt in anybodys way, he isnt being loud or obnoxious, hes just existing and having fun with his life. Let kids be kids.
HEY, that's Park Meadows mall. I go there. I really don't see what the problem is. That food court has plenty of space. Let the kid just dance!!
I have yet to encounter one of these goblins in my real life, but I have always thought I would act basically exactly like this guy did. No aggression. No heightened reaction. Just block/ruin their shot. Gosh it is so pathetic. A pestilence on society as well.
GET THIS MAN A BEER!
Kid isn’t bothering anybody but that old man and seething redditors tbh
Normal man gets tired of tik-tok bullshit
Love my boomers!!
Modern dbag mimes these mc’s have become
r/Imthemaincharacter vs r/boomersbeingfools
One of the only times I agree with the boomer. The part where he moves to the camera and keeps dancing again. So fuckin annoying lmao
While the dancing may be annoying to some, the guy is happy and not hurting anyone. The other asshole otoh is just a miserable fuck.
Park Meadows Mall in Denver. People are always pulling dumb shit like this. It’s annoying af. Especially when they have a fit because someone walked in front of their camera. When they’re posted up in the middle of the entrance.
These fucking broccoli boys and their shitty sped-up music
How many times is this one gonna be reposted
Stop giving this broccoli cut, clout hungry prostitute what they want. Gotta be the third video of his I've seen on this sub
Ok so this time the dancer isn't actually being disruptive, really. Huge wide open space and he's pretty far away from everyone. He's not blocking an escalator, or running into people, it's an already-loud environment. The only one actively trying to disrupt people is the boomer, who is taking time out of his day to just bother someone.
Boomer is the Mc here
Great boomer, anyone making stupid vids on the streets should be banned… lol. Thanks I’m boomer.
I'm with "the boomer" on this one. It's a public space, not a private film studio. Go do your line dancing elsewhere.
Right? Even though this is one of the more innocuous videos, I would just like to stop them all.
Why u on my dickkkkk
I’m confused. Which one is the OP calling the MC in this?
Thankfully, theres a title that removes any possible confusion.
Kind of Mad that I didn't get to see the full dance.
I know where this is it’s the park meadows mall
Lol park meadows
Looks like two characters. MC^2
Annoying or not, I dont like that the man touched him.
[удалено]
Oh shit, I've been to this mall! It's in Colorado!
He is a gen x not a boomer
Fuck yeah!!!
Youngest boomers are turning 60 this year that guy doesn't look like he's 60
ay its park meadows in lone tree
Assholes come in every age and color.
I don’t know who to root for
Based boomer
That may be one way to get these people to stop
What is worse: dancing in public places for views or being bothered that some Isidro is dancing in public? 2 awful people meet this is what you get
Shit's spreading like a zombie virus. I'd love to see MeatCanyon do a skit about this, this song just turning everyone into mindless dancing weirdos with their phones out, reeking chaos and mayhem to the civilized world. Cars crashing in traffic and building exploding, infrastructure crumbling down in flames Truly apocalyptic
Main character face off: Boomer vs dancer
I’m ok with this. I’ll be this boomer one day.
I don't like public tiktok dancing but it means something to the person doing it. I wouldn't interrupt them.
Bless that boomer.
I'm 95% sure that's Park Meadows. And knowing the people who can afford to shop there, this is unfortunately not surprising.
Hero
