Speaker 1 (00:00):
Time for Nina's What's trending?
Speaker 2 (00:01):
Can you guess what the most searched definition is? The
most searched definition from word. It's very obvious it is
to me. I guess when I read it was, what
is it? The most looked up word in the United
States right now is gaslighting hoctua.
Speaker 1 (00:23):
I don't know gas lighting.
Speaker 2 (00:25):
Which of course refers to a form of psychological manipulation
that causes the victim to question their reality essentially. But
it's just we've talked about this before on the show too.
Which made it so obvious to me is because people
use the word gaslighting definition for gaslighting. It's like, what
are you talking about? What?
Speaker 1 (00:45):
Gaslighting doesn't exist? Wait? Wait, wait, wait a second, that's right.
I can't be right. That would be so messy. And no,
I'm not making light of gas lighting.
Speaker 3 (00:57):
As somebody who has been gaslight a lot in their life,
starting childhood, I know a lot about it, and it's
it's terrible that it happens and it's terrible to do
to somebody.
Speaker 1 (01:05):
But that's still pretty funny if that was the definition.
Speaker 2 (01:09):
I just wonder if the definition becomes more common like
knowledge instead of just the word gaslighting, that maybe it'll
be like, you know, people understand what's happening now, like, oh,
you're gaslighting me for real, for real?
Speaker 1 (01:21):
Right.
Speaker 3 (01:21):
I think it would be great if people learn the
definition of it, because it's thrown out there a lot
on social media and a lot of times I see
it and it's used not correctly, you know, or again,
and then that empowers people to use it in their
own lives not correctly. Right if somebody has a different
experience of something, because everybody's experience is valid. Sometimes yes,
(01:41):
people are crazy, but that's still their experience. They're insane
and in their mind something insane is happening. Just don't
deal with those people, right, Okay, Nazia said, than none,
But the intent may not be too gaslight you. They
also might just be lying, right, Lying is different than gaslighting, right,
So if they're lying to you, they're lying to you.
But then to also accused somebody of gaslighting if it's
(02:01):
not really truth, Now, you're kind of gaslighting in a way,
but it's not on purpose.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
It's out an ignorance.
Speaker 3 (02:08):
Right, because you didn't learn the actual definition of it,
you're also not gonna be able to spot it in
your real life, So you might be accusing something of
somebody of something terrible when they just are like remembering
a conversation different.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
And you're still getting by somebody else for real for it.
Speaker 3 (02:22):
Right, because people remember conversations differently if you want. If
you think somebody said something and they didn't right and
they remember saying it, they might remember saying it. It
doesn't mean that they're gaslighting.
Speaker 1 (02:33):
You, you know what I mean. So it's not that extreme.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
Yeah, So I guess it's good that it's one of
the most commonly looked up words in the United States.
Speaker 1 (02:40):
Yeah, it's a complicated one. It is very complicated. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
So Instagram is also testing a dislike button. We've talked
about the dislike buttony. They messed around with it, I
think on Twitter before it became X a while ago. Also,
But the reason isn't to spread negativity. They're hoping that
on the flip side, it's going to decrease negative comments.
Speaker 3 (02:58):
That's a lie, So spread negativity instead of commenting, they
can just dislike it.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
It's not the posts that they're disliking, and nobody can
see the thumbs down button only like I guess the
person that they're.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
Doing it too, which is kind of.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
That sounds terrible, right, But the part that I do like,
if used properly, is if like somebody is writing like
some kind of hater comment underneath of your posts, which
we all in this room are very familiar with. Right,
So you have a little hater comment. But then other
people can go to the hater comment and dislike it,
and then they push that comment all the way down
to the bottom.
Speaker 3 (03:32):
Okay, So it's like a way for people to police
themselves in the comments. People to do it, I guess,
been on their own social media sites.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
Apparently not gang, but they're trying. Their hearts are in
the right place, I think probably. I don't know better
if you just used your own app, Yeah, you find
out really quickly.
Speaker 3 (03:57):
Just positivity or bridge the haters, you know, Yeah, they're
there for a reason.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
Motivator's very sad and jealous of you. You know.
Speaker 3 (04:06):
The other day I was on TikTok Live and someone
was like, how does it feel that you blew up
after your prime? And I was like I was like, yeah,
I did. Isn't that hilarious? It's funny. I'm like ten
to fifteen years past when I should.
Speaker 1 (04:21):
Have blown up.
Speaker 3 (04:22):
It's funny because the thing is, I don't even care
anymore than I blew up, which.
Speaker 1 (04:28):
Is the time I would have cared about it. But
now it's hilarious. Thank you for pointing that out. He said,
your prime is it right now?
Speaker 2 (04:34):
Me?
Speaker 1 (04:38):
It's a different conversations, like I wake up next to
me every day and I know it. I know when
I was better.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
That.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
So it was just so funny. I will say, though,
not to be a jeems ball.
Speaker 2 (04:50):
This version of Jubil is one of my favorites because
he's so like enlightened and still funny.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
Thanks anyway, the university is just getting him ready for
the blow up. Yeah exactly. The dude wasn't wrong though,
and that was just like that that's really funny. Far
so mean that you wanted to take Talk live and
you laugh about it. It's amazing because it's so.
Speaker 3 (05:10):
Funny to watch after someone was like, stop bullying him,
and I was like, dude, it's impossible to bully me.
Speaker 1 (05:16):
Go for it. Try laugh at it. It's fine. That's trending.
