   I am going to ask a possibly stupid question.

   Why do Americans film themselves talking while lying in bed? They're bringing this over to #xiaohongshu and it's driving me crazy 🤣

   Ps: I haven't noticed people from other countries do this so far lol

     @liztai I think it's because they're always exhausted over there. Their news cycle is very overwhelming.

     @liztai A lot of people also film themselves in their cars. 🤷♀️

     Apparently one of the first things that CIA spies had to learn before going undercover is to not lean on things while standing. Apparently this is a cultural quirk of Americans. As an American, I can attest that I do lean more than the average global citizen.

     @liztai @avradi I wouldn't want to do this in KL traffic 😂 I've tried it here before, just sticking an action camera in the corner of a window, it works surprisingly well.
