Reply to comment by Pabst_Malone in Ever wonder if anyone else on the globe was ever watching the same exact show at the same timestamp by Double-Working1990

They meant streaming apparently, according to their comments

I mean, that much was obvious from the start. It’s surprising to me how many people in these comments apparently explicitly need the disclaimer that OP was not talking about live TV. I know there are stupid people, but how stupid do they think OP could really be?

It wasn’t necessarily obvious. ’show’ can mean anything, from LIVE tv, to streaming services

There you go then haha and to be fair, I suppose if someone’s neurodivergent (e.g. autistic) and struggle with taking things too literally and putting together context and pragmatic factors it would also be reasonable for them not to understand what was meant. I’m not diagnosed as autistic but do have some similar symptoms so I can understand it’s not easy for everyone to understand things that aren’t explicitly said

Despite having traits, and people saying I do, I don’t

I wasn’t referring to you, but it was just another factor that occurred to me just as I was writing my reply to you

Oh, I know, I was just saying is all. Didn’t cross my mind that that may be the reason some people misunderstand

Thank you!! Every time I see a new "live tv" comment I just laugh at this point. I'm over commenting to clarify to those people haha at least we have some people with common sense here. 😅
