1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:03,320 Speaker 1: I ruined my best friend's wedding by helping him propose. 2 00:00:03,680 --> 00:00:04,280 Speaker 1: Here's why. 3 00:00:04,760 --> 00:00:07,680 Speaker 2: Usually when you help your friend propose, that's a good thing. 4 00:00:08,280 --> 00:00:08,920 Speaker 3: Usually it is. 5 00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:11,640 Speaker 1: But the other question is is this written by an 6 00:00:11,680 --> 00:00:12,559 Speaker 1: AI or a human? 7 00:00:13,720 --> 00:00:18,840 Speaker 2: This seems pretty pull, seems plausible, So I'm going to 8 00:00:18,880 --> 00:00:19,279 Speaker 2: go human. 9 00:00:19,360 --> 00:00:22,280 Speaker 1: Let's going to go human. I had the worst luck yesterday. 10 00:00:22,480 --> 00:00:24,720 Speaker 1: My best friend had confided to me that he was 11 00:00:24,760 --> 00:00:27,080 Speaker 1: planning to propose to his girlfriend, and he asked me 12 00:00:27,120 --> 00:00:29,560 Speaker 1: to capture the moment on my phone. I was honored 13 00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:32,120 Speaker 1: to be part of such a special moment and excited 14 00:00:32,120 --> 00:00:34,960 Speaker 1: to document it for him. We arrived at a beautiful 15 00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:37,560 Speaker 1: beach and everything was going according to plant. 16 00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:38,040 Speaker 3: Oh. 17 00:00:38,120 --> 00:00:40,080 Speaker 1: My best friend got down on one knee and asked 18 00:00:40,080 --> 00:00:42,560 Speaker 1: his girlfriend to marry him. I pulled out my phone 19 00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:46,239 Speaker 1: and started snapping pictures and recording some video. Hey. But 20 00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:50,040 Speaker 1: as I was taking the photos, I noticed something on 21 00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:53,360 Speaker 1: my phone. It was running low on storage. I had 22 00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:55,600 Speaker 1: forgotten to clear out some old photos and videos, and 23 00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:58,640 Speaker 1: now I had barely any room left. I was worried 24 00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:00,320 Speaker 1: that my phone might run out of storage before I 25 00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:03,440 Speaker 1: could capture the whole proposal, so I started frantically deleting 26 00:01:03,480 --> 00:01:06,040 Speaker 1: some old files to make room, but it was too late. 27 00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:09,440 Speaker 1: My phone ran out of storage just as my best 28 00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:13,840 Speaker 1: friend's girlfriend said yes. Oh, like right at the moments, 29 00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:17,560 Speaker 1: right this terrible. I was devastated. I had let my 30 00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:20,200 Speaker 1: best friend down and missed out on capturing such an 31 00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:23,200 Speaker 1: important moment in his life. I felt terrible and didn't 32 00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:24,840 Speaker 1: know how to make it up to him. In a 33 00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:28,080 Speaker 1: moment of desperation, I decided to try to recreate the 34 00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:31,760 Speaker 1: proposal photos with photoshop. I figured that I could just 35 00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:34,560 Speaker 1: show my best friend some pictures of the moment and 36 00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:36,440 Speaker 1: it might make up for the fact that I had 37 00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:41,039 Speaker 1: missed the actual proposal. You know, I mean no, but 38 00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:43,960 Speaker 1: maybe man's a wizard with photoshop. 39 00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:47,400 Speaker 3: Maybe maybe. But things only got worse from there. 40 00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:50,320 Speaker 1: My best friend saw the fake photos and it sold 41 00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:51,960 Speaker 1: they were fake, and I was furious. 42 00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:52,760 Speaker 2: Oh no. 43 00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:55,560 Speaker 1: He accused me of trying to manipulate and deceive him, 44 00:01:55,760 --> 00:01:58,240 Speaker 1: and he said that our friendship was over. 45 00:01:58,440 --> 00:01:58,880 Speaker 4: Oh. 46 00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:01,160 Speaker 1: I was heartbroken. I only meant to try and make 47 00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:03,520 Speaker 1: things right, but instead I had made things even worse. 48 00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:05,960 Speaker 1: I realized that honesty is always the best policy, and 49 00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:08,720 Speaker 1: that sometimes it's better to admit our mistakes rather than 50 00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:11,280 Speaker 1: try to cover them up. I apologized to my best 51 00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:13,720 Speaker 1: friend and begged for his forgiveness, but he wouldn't hear it. 52 00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:16,200 Speaker 1: He was too hurt and angry to consider forgiving me, 53 00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:18,240 Speaker 1: and he said that our friendship was over for good. 54 00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:19,399 Speaker 3: I was devastated. 55 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:21,240 Speaker 1: Losing my best friend was one of the hardest things 56 00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:22,880 Speaker 1: I've ever had to deal with, and I learned the 57 00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:26,400 Speaker 1: hard way that our actions have consequences, and sometimes it's 58 00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:27,680 Speaker 1: too late to make things right. 59 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:30,440 Speaker 2: I mean, he shouldn't shouldn't have, shouldn't have done the 60 00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:33,200 Speaker 2: fake photo, but like he was just he was just 61 00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:35,480 Speaker 2: caught up. It was just just happened to him. 62 00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:38,000 Speaker 1: But John, there's an update, Oh snap. I wanted to 63 00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:40,200 Speaker 1: privee an update to my previous story. After my best 64 00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:42,680 Speaker 1: friend found out about the fake proposal photos I had 65 00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:43,840 Speaker 1: created in photoshop. 66 00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:45,440 Speaker 3: He was furious and the friendship was over. 67 00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:48,120 Speaker 1: I was heartbroken and apologized him, but he wouldn't hear it, 68 00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:50,920 Speaker 1: and things have only gotten worse since then. My best 69 00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:53,400 Speaker 1: friend's family found out about the fake photos, and they 70 00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:57,000 Speaker 1: had been calling and texting me NonStop, angry about what 71 00:02:57,080 --> 00:02:59,400 Speaker 1: I did. They're saying that I'm an awful person and 72 00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:01,359 Speaker 1: that I don't deserve to be friends with their son. 73 00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:02,800 Speaker 3: I don't know what to do. 74 00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:05,600 Speaker 1: I feel terrible about what happened, and I want to 75 00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:07,960 Speaker 1: restore my friendship with my best friend, but I also 76 00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:10,840 Speaker 1: don't want to deal with the constant criticism and judgment 77 00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:13,040 Speaker 1: from his family. Should I try to keep making things 78 00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:14,840 Speaker 1: right or just end the friendship and move on? 79 00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:17,680 Speaker 2: Give give it the old college effort, Give it one more, 80 00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:20,520 Speaker 2: try to see if it works. But this is a 81 00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:21,200 Speaker 2: tough situation. 82 00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:23,760 Speaker 1: It might you might you might be you might be 83 00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:28,200 Speaker 1: out of Luck's son.
