Steal this for your own video

"[observation someone says to you]" Me internally: [brutally honest thought you'd never say out loud]

  • — "You seem stressed lately" Me internally: Yeah, you're the reason why.
  • — "You should smile more!" Me internally: I smile plenty. Just not around you.
  • — "You're so quiet in meetings" Me internally: I have nothing nice to say so I say nothing.
