Screamers.

VG_Addict · 06-17-2008, 10:15 AM

You probably know what I'm talking about. You know, those videos where it tells you to look closely at the screen, and a scary face pops out and scares the **** outta you? Am I the only one who hates those things?

No you're not, but I wouldn't call them scary. They're more annoying than scary.

If someone tells you to look closely at the screen, DON'T LISTEN!

I'm not easly scared nor intimidated by things I watch on TV. Never have been really, even at an early age I mostly laughed my ass off at "screamers" now as for my twin sister, that's an entirely different story!!!

Screamers are never on TV. Ever.

You'll only find them on things like Youtube videos. The best way to avoid these on Youtube, is to, if you're not sure about the video, look at the comments people have posted about the video.

Most people who post screamers don't give you a hint there's going to be one. You just need to see what other people are saying about it. As DZ said, you can just not watch or listen to them, although, as I said, most posters of screamers don't alert you if there is one, so you can never be too sure, but other people who have seen the video will tell you (And everybody else watching) to turn your volume down or scroll down so you can't see the screamer itself.

^ that is why I always look at comments first on youtube videos.

Trap vids are better.

LuWEEGEEman · 06-22-2008, 07:55 PM

Trap Vids? oh, like that Rickroll one where a billion popups comeout and the window moves around the screen? yeah, those are annoying, even though ive only seen one.
