I’d never seen the St Patty’s Day video, although I did watch the bachelorette one. Similar tone but this one was more heartbreaking because the wasn’t in a crowded place-she should have been comfortable in a friends home.
Her lack of understanding of social norms is truly astounding. She’s too loud, she sticks cameras in people’s faces, misses clues that they want her to stop; she’s insulting, she doesn’t listen and only talks, and is ignorant of all of it. At one point, where the girls are outside for a smoke break and they are talking about some guy who was annoying them, Chantel clearly had zero idea of what they were talking about, yet instead of being quiet and listening or asking questions, she just steamrolled over everybody with her tee heeing, once laughing so loudly and inappropriately she even said “sorry” but then continued.
I have no doubt she felt very uncomfortable, but was sure nobody noticed. She was probably thinking all these people were impressed by YouTube and thought her funny. She was so out of place an autistic person could tell what was going on.
Pretty much. Chantal attempted to kind of push her way into the conversation but no one was really having any of it. The girl telling the story was clearly looking at that taller girl next to Chantal the whole time and didn't even give Chantal a cursory glance while talking. She was basically boxed out of their discussion, despite the laughing and trying to interject with her own little anecdotes (that no one even acknowledges). It really hits home just how much a secondary character Chantal is in real life. Even among supposed friends, she isn't anywhere remotely near the center of the conversation.
Back in the house, during the image GargoyleGorl posted above, that guy is not having any of Chantal's shit. She tells the guy to say hi to the camera and he just fucking glares at her, throwing out a half-hearted smile before turning away from the camera. It reminds me of when a little kid gets a camcorder for Christmas and can't help but go film everyone later that night at the Christmas party.
Awkward as fuck.
