@soberishmom anndddd that brand deal is cancelled 😂. One of the main reasons I started Soberish Mom was the give brutally honest reviews of all the amazing (and not amazing) nonalcoholic products on the market. As people are drinking less (yay!) business are really trying to cash in on new lines of alcohol-free drinks, powders, functional beverages and gummies. I review them all so follow along for the best & worst in each category! This would be the worst powdered kava I’ve tried so far - I do love a couple brands so DM me if you’re looking for a great brand that gives you a buzz without the booze ✌️.

Hook template

Steal this for your own video

I thought I was making [pleasant expectation], but I refuse to suffer alone...

  • — I thought I was making an aesthetic morning routine video, but I refuse to suffer alone...

Hook and payoff

The promise the opener makes, and how the video pays it back

Hook

Foreshadow a negative outcome that subverts a positive, aesthetic expectation, creating a mystery about what will go wrong.

Payoff

The original creator laughs, vindicated, as the promise from the hook ('refuse to suffer alone') is fulfilled. The shared negative experience provides a humorous and satisfying resolution.

Narrative framework

The structural pattern this video runs on

Framework

The Shared Suffering Blueprint

A creator has an unexpectedly negative experience with an item and tricks an unsuspecting second person into sharing the misery for comedic effect, leveraging dramatic irony for engagement.

  1. 1

    The Aesthetic Deception

    The creator prepares an item that appears visually appealing, setting a positive expectation for the viewer and reinforcing the initial 'aesthetic' premise.

  2. 2

    The Solo Suffer

    The creator tries the item and has an immediate, visceral negative reaction, establishing the core conflict and paying off the hook's foreshadowing.

  3. 3

    The Recruitment

    Refusing to be the only one to experience the negative outcome, the creator invites an unsuspecting participant to try the item, creating anticipation and dramatic irony.

  4. 4

    The Unwitting Acceptance

    The second person enthusiastically agrees to participate, heightening the dramatic irony as the audience knows the unpleasant outcome that awaits them.

  5. 5

    The Mirrored Misery

    The second person tries the item and has an identical, visceral negative reaction, validating the creator's initial judgment and serving as the scene's climax.
