Interacting with the tv

I’m interested, does anyone do this:
When I’m watching tv our YouTube I tend to interact with people on the screen. I don’t mean movies, but talks or reports. I smile back when they smile and comment their talks. Then I will suddenly remember they’re not smiling at me, but it still feels like they do.
I have all the trouble in the world to even look at people in real life. I camouflage very well, smile like a pro, but it’s one heck of a workout, socialising is. But tv - it feels like connecting.
Anyone as crazy?
 
ALL the time who else am i gonna interact with the majority of time ? ) both to computer as well as Tv add radio and i belive we have it all :p
 
I often make comments to myself about what I'm watching or repeat what they just said because I know if I could I'd have it made if I could read Reddit posts on YouTube for a living.
 
All the time.
Sometimes I say things like I'm actually there and say stuff like: "good for you!", "That's what I'd do.",
"Well, you got yourselve into a mess, didn't you?"
Short sentences I would say to the person if they were really there.
It's fun.

Crazy is optimal. Yes also interact with objects like a TV, I walk a lot, seems to help. thank you
 
I tend to join in with whatever they're saying.

I talk over them a lot.

I explain the plot 'He's going to die.' 'He did it.'

The best is when the TV mentions my name.

Then I can have a proper conversation.

Basically I am the most annoying person in the world.

This is why I sound resist doorway entries etc, may get carted away otherwise, yikes

People do this all the time at sporting events and even the ones they watch on TV.
They see a player do something considered dumb and they will say things about it out loud
as if talking with that person even when they know said person can't hear a word they say.

I think it is just human nature and part of the entertainment feature of watching something.
Especially watching alone.

Don't worry about the men in white with the butterfly nets! ;)

And Welcome to Aspieville. :D
