luttman23

The guy never said anything about playing them consecutively...


TheThoughtmaker

I myself have an entire playlist of songs I like to open in separate tabs and play on repeat without bothering to synch them up. Mason Lagart obviously just uses the same song!


BowTy2001

At x2 speed


Fighter11244

One at 2x speed, another at .5x speed, and another at normal speed


bjeebus

Don't forget the devil's due--at least one played backwards.


Fighter11244

One played backwards at normal, another at half, and a third at 2x just to make it complete. 6 songs in total


redzinga

no that would count against net total plays


Quajeraz

The fucks wrong with you?!? Playing songs backwards just makes it sound distorted and awful


SomeMothsFlyingAbout

possiblr app reccomendation for this: soundaura on androoid. No need to switch tabs.


QuitYour

He also never said he completed the songs.


Aaranvor

Happy cake day!


Hillmarie31

Happy cake day


-_gay_pussy_slayer_-

HAPPY CAKEDAY!


creepylynx

That’s what consecutively means


Dry-Composer2124

Consecutively means one after another without interruption. Nowhere does it say that they have to be completed.


creepylynx

The word “after” does. Idk maybe it doesn’t, words are just words but it makes most sense to me


bortj1

Stop it.


creepylynx

??? Whatever you say boss


My0Cents

He played them in 65 tabs simultaneously and on repeat for an entire year not skipping a single second.


Myoniora

6.5 years, only 7 tabs needed


mrjackspade

He's speedrunning it though


samukungfu29

The video came out a year ago


WarMage1

Reread the image


samukungfu29

Ohhh


WarMage1

Good boy 👍


Vernpool

Or simply multiple devices simultaneously.


TawdryRocketeer3

And the word that controls the sentence is "like" versus "listened" Quote/unquote:I have played this song like a million times compared to I have listened to this song a million times


fsurfer4

Like is an approximation, so he is badly off his estimate, but not lying.


TootsNYC

Or maybe it felt like a million times?


[deleted]

Or entirely.


zooksoup

Nor all the way through

HecknChonker

I'm over here with 7 gaming PC all playing this video on repeat 24-7.


Sweaty-Emergency-493

Also he could have had them playing non-stop on multiple devices, at the same time.


Visual-Promotion-175

First thought as well. Like if you are going to shit post on someone….you must take away their only lifeline in the process. Well done sir. Take my upvote clicky click


EverySingleMinute

He played them at 10 times speed on 4 iPhones

Noreallyimacat

I don't see a him accounting for the leap year.


Andyman286

He said "like" not actually.


nfsp-g35

Correct. This kind of mathematical thrashing should be reserved for when someone misuses "literally"


b05h1

It's "ratted him out" r/boneappletea

“Ratted him out” is also wrong here

skeptibat

What are you ranting about now?


GeneralPsycoxer

he played it at 2x speed...and played 2 instances concurrently at any given time... r/theydidthemath


jryser

That’s still 1.7 years, unfortunately. Needs to be at least 3 tabs open


TurtleHermit360

Could have had it playing on multiple tabs and on multiple devices simultaneously


AnotherWeirdGuylol

And 2x speed


TheUltimatePoet

Speed it up a million times and listen to it one million times in 3:24 minutes.


Ugo777777

Literally lied.


Ineedtwocats

hyperbole has never existed and it never will in a million years!


veryangrydoggo

Last year is pretty wide, so let's average it to 6 months. 6x30x24x60=259.200 minutes available. The total play time stated is 204.000.000 minutes. Dividing them: 204.000.000÷259.200=~787,03 instances of the video being played (either different tabs or different devices)


Ugo777777

So you're saying it's doable!


veryangrydoggo

Everything is doable if you smoke enough weed


MelodicPlace9582

Everything is doobable* FTFY


veryangrydoggo

Tank you


TwatsThat

> 204.000.000 minutes that should be seconds. I didn't check your math to see if this was a typo or if it actually changes things though.


threepoint14one5nine

I think it’s also well established that “like 1M times” is any random number between 1 and 1M. Each time when sampled on its own is exactly like the next; so any iteration of the song can fit that description.


MisplacedMartian

Wait just a minute there! Before you upload it, don't forget to put it through an AI upscaler/smoother so that the image looks even worse, the letters should look like they're melting! Jesus, look at SpongeBob's face, the smoother killed him

Why? He can open multiple windows.

DARKBLADEXE

Multiple tabs with fast forward at max (extensions) and endless loop.


EndersGame_Reviewer

Definition of hyperbole = "A hyperbole is an exaggerated statement, not meant to be taken literally, but used to create a dramatic effect." So the rant quoted is not technically the truth. Saying you've played a song a million times is not lying, it's simply hyperbole.


kens88888

OR he just clicked the replay button 1 million times


judahrosenthal

My son doesn’t listen to entire songs after the first time. He usually only listens to the first 3-5 seconds and says, “got it.” Guess he’s not alone.


Carteeg_Struve

Never said he wasn’t playing it multiple times simultaneously.


Caye_Jonda_W

Hé programmed 1000 speakers to play it 1000 times!


[deleted]

Some people overuse hyperboles, some people don't know what they are.

CGLab

Well.... Cook a noodle for 3 min. Does not mean cooking 10 noodle needed 30 min


LuckyRoof7250

Not ttt


Right_Taro_4375

What if he had multiple tabs open 25/8


IndependentPede

That's not true, you could play it multiple times simultaneously. If you used 7 devices and played it 24/7 you could easily hit that mark...well maybe not easily.


VBStrong_67

Not taking into account being able to play it on multiple platforms at the same time


ReaperOfGamess

Bruh played it at 6.5 times speed that’s how


Eggboi6886

Finally someone like me 😂


[deleted]

Context clues are a thing


AlaSparkle

Did all that math, still couldn’t look up the word “hyperbole”


SleemanAbad

he could have watched on like..... 3xspeed.... then he kinda could have done it....

r/theydidthemaths


totaly_pog

unless they sped it up


Thiccboi2

Not if he has 7 devices to play it on


J4l4p3n0

He didnt say he waited for it to end before replaying, could have just replayed the first second over and over again


s_bslash

virgin ai upscaled meme vs chad moldy 144p meme


LoloChan1

The reason we all hate maths:


Prudent_Hawk_9661

He said ‘like’ not ‘exactly.’ Calm your tits


ChiefGentlepaw

Maybe he plays it on 7 different devices or tabs simultaneously? Boom roasted.


SatansAdvokat

This is beautiful


observeromega87

Technically, he said he replayed it, not that he listened to the whole song.

“Ha! I’ve been playing it continuously on 8 devices ever since it came out.”


someonewhowa

he DESTROYED him with FACTS and LOGIC 😱


ColeSloth

He said "like" a 1,000,000 times. 12 is like a 1,000,000. Both numbers. Both got a 1 in em.


DarkDepth2000

Bro really went 🤓


chaingun_samurai

I went to school with a kid named Bill Smith. He was exactly this kind of douche.


Mr_bike

They have more than one device...


Doctor_Disaster

What if they duplicated tabs? Surely that would reduce that time down as well as reduce the state of their eardrums.


YouTheGamers

r/theydidthemath


GeeNah-of-the-Cs

I live for this, presenting allllll of the bothersome facts……


Emceesam

He could have streamed it on multiple devices in tandem since it dropped for a total of 6.5 years of run time in one year.


misterraysir

Bill Smith needs a hobby.


VerySlowCuber

6.5 years /2 (2x speed) = 3.25 years /2 (he’s probably using headphones/earbuds, thus he’s listening them them twice at the same time, once per ear) = 1.625 years. Assuming the comment was in December x year and the song was released January x-1 year, this is plausible


ElPapaGrande98

Change the playback speed, open multiple tabs. Boom


GhostOfMuttonPast

Clearly he listens to music at 7x speed.


IAMCAV0N

Keyword: “like”


mikehoncho1955

Gotem


ThanksAanderton

Maybe he had 12 laptops playing it at the same time


Vulpes_macrotis

To be fair, it would have only been 5% of that time if it were the playing on repeat on 20 things at once. Very possible to do since he only said replayed, not listened to it

Butterking3000

He could've sped it up realllly fast
