Raw-dogging... it's fine, but keep it to your self.
Raw-dogging is a relatively new travel trend in which mainly young men just sit in their seats for a whole flight with no entertainment - no phone, music, or in-flight films. Some will go without food or water, some will even go as far as not moving, not even getting up to go to the toilet.
Staring at the in flight map is something that is allowed, although some choose to just stare into space.
And naturally they will brag about this on TikTok afterwards.
A ManCity footballer recently posted about having Raw-Dogged a 7 hour flight.
Others have posted about longer sits - almost double this.
A positive trend...?
At one level I can really see the potential benefits of this. If you are just 'staring into space' then this is basically a form of meditation, potentially.
As I understand it you have to keep your eyes open, there's no napping, and so you get all that time to just deal with whatever shit comes up in your mind, focus on the breath, process what needs processing.
Maybe even if you're map staring, that could even help focus too.
And this isn't a bad way of men expressing their masculinity, through doing nothing, if this spreads, then great!
It's better than expending energy and resources on violence or motorsport, for example.
Downsides...
The way it's being done is hardly the middle way, especially if you're not drinking or moving about, the later can be a health risk on a flight, you're supposed to jiggle your legs every now and then to prevent deep vein thrombosis.
And it's rather silly to dehydrate yourself just for the sake of a Tik Tok post.
And it's also all about ego really. I say this has the potential to be meditative, it does, but if you're doing it to brag about it, then that's your focus, nothing deeper, so it's probably just going to be ego enhancing.
Rude...? What if the person next to you tries to make polite conversation, or do you tell them first I'm 'rawdogging' - if you don't you're going to be rude, more than likely, if you do tell them you're just going to look like an egotistical twat, which is basically what you are.
Middle way required...?
Overall I think this trend offers us a reminder that this can be a useful way of dealing with a flight, or any other situation that just involves hanging around (queuing for example).
However, I'd modify it so you're just doing it quietly to yourself, keep yourself hydrated, and if someone tries to make conversation, be polite, don't be a fucking egotistical idiot.

thats funny i think ,,,hhh
I don't like any entartainment during bus trip or in flight, but I would like drink or food :)
That's a bit more middle way!
This sounds like a trend I would support, if the name of it were just a tad less rapey.
Lmao
Hmmm yes there is that!

I thought you'd then just raw-dog them in the airplane toilet...
Sounds rather painful!
He doesn't look terribly well on it!
He certainly has a 'look' doesn't he?!?
And here I thought raw dogging had a completely different meaning 😆
It seems to be getting people's imaginations going for sure!
The middle way is always required, imo. I had no idea it was a trend, but I've noticed it a lot. Not sure they were being part of this challenge or just... you know, a bit empty. There was a guy on the plane next to me the other day. Raw-dogging, so to speak, until he noticed the guy in front of him had some show to watch on his phone. Spent the rest of the flight peeking over the guy's shoulder xD
It seems weird to me. The way social media sort of gives you permission to do something and makes it feel like you're doing it with purpose. 'Cause that guy wouldn't have been like "just spent 7 hrs staring into the nothing on a plane" online if it wasn't a trend. Weird.
It's even hit local radio, it's getting more publicity. I can't wait for the distract a raw dogger trend.
The mancity player looks like he is raw dogging in business class. surely had does not count.

Most of the time they are just lying. I see a lot of them giving their flights and times and they don't match up. They are just clout chasing
Oh OK now that is something I hadn't realised, and that wouldn't surprise me. Presumably they have to take a break for a selfie at some point too!
Just a bunch of people chasing trends for views lol. I saw someone "rawdog" on a flight to the toon of about 30 seconds so he could document it.
It is one of those 'wouldn't exist without likes' activities, 100%.
This is the sort of crap that social media encourages. People are desperate to have something to show off with. Well I post my running, but I'd be doing it anyway. I'd laugh if I saw someone doing this pointless exercise as I enjoyed a movie and a good book whilst eating the crappy airline food before a nap.

It seems like THEMARKYMARK is dealing with some personal drama and mental issues, which might be causing them to spam us and others with baby pics, GIFs, and questionable content he's been doing the same for years. The fun doesn't stop there, as this seems to be a recurring theme with multiple online personas. The real question is, do we want to trust these drama-magnets with our hard-earned funds or any significant influence on Hive?
On Hive a significant issue exists with automatic upvotes consistently rewarding the same individuals day in and day out
We want to address the issue of downvoting. It has caused pain to many people, and we want to make sure it doesn't happen again reply to @jacobtothe

We hope that those who genuinely care about Hive will reconsider their actions, as continuing down this path could inadvertently harm innocent users who are unaware of these issues

No.
I downvote spammers, you are a spammer, you get no monies. It’s very simple.
In the meantime go get some help. You obviously have some issues going on.

Upon examining our posts, you will notice they have been downvoted, and we've been labeled as scammers and spammers, which we find amusing. We consistently share new content
https://hive.blog/a-i/@worldhelper/chatgpt-100percent-hp
it's so, so concerning to see Blocktrades delegating 2+ million Hive power to Buildawhale, and Buildawhale is downvoting legitimate content
Probably without social media this wouldn't exist, it's a little depressing for sure!
I didn't know the term was applied to other things. I don't keep up with modern slang.
