So, she’s in NYC, but she doesn’t have a travel buddy so she sets ip her camera to film herself eating mac & cheese (I’m sure it’s gluten-free) on her bed, in her hotel room while trying to get caught up on the whole Celine Dion catalogue since she’s really not a fan. I see it as she’s so insecure and lacking in confidence she can’t go out alone to dine in a fabulous NY restaurant and eat grown-up food. She had to film and post this so she can read the comments from her adoring fans to build her self-image. She is the opposite of everything she pretends her platform represents.
I’ll admit, I’m one of the “sad” people who has some friends they enjoy a digital meal with a couple times a week, but this is just depressing.
Like, yeah, we’re a bunch of awkward nerds, but we’re at least trying to actually have fun with it, talk about what’s going on in our lives, enjoy each other’s companies even if we’re hundreds of miles apart.
That’s not sad at all as they’re actually your friends! SNL here is in a 100% parasocial relationship with her “fans”.
Yes! Those are her friends! The way my mind works is it’s processing a bunch of data all the time and sometimes spits a result up to the surface to mull over and this churned to the top today. Sarah desperately needs to be liked and has an unhealthy desire for fame. It appears, to me, she will do anything to achieve these goals. She lacks any close connections - sure she has Becci and Bri and Joanna - but, I think, she’d walk away without looking back if they no longer serve her. This whole video highlights how empty her life really is and how she’s just a try-hard. I don’t think it’s sad. I find it pathetic since she does have 4 children and a husband and could have real connection with them if she chooses. The family vacay is coming up and that’s just a big commercial.
What you’re describing isnt sad! You have a friend group you enjoy.
