When you're doing something, and a friend strolls up to you with a smart phone or laptop, or takes your
computer for a second to show you a
Youtube video. If you don't stop your friend after that one video, chances are, they'll show you another one, even though you are trying to get back to whatever you are doing. Congrats! You are now Tube Tied. Your friend will continue showing you videos until they run out of ideas or until you make yourself look like a big jackass by asking them to stop showing you videos. This is normally only really a problem with
people that have a hard time saying no.
Guy: Hey, wanna see a funny video really quick?
You: Sure, lets see it
*watches video*
You:Well, that was pretty cool,
lol
Guy: Wanna see another? *as he's already scrolling through looking for another, before you
even answer*
You: I guess
*watches video*
Guy: Hey, wait wait, this one is good too
*brings up another video*
Guy:And
don't
even get me started on this one!
*Starts another one*
You: (Aw shit, I'm Tube Tied)
You: Okay look man, I have to get back to
work, thanks for showing me those
Guy: But I have a few more
You: Get the fuck out!
