I'll pause anyway! We're in this together.
I prefer to remember the time and rewind when I hear them flushing, so that there is no suspicious silence.
"Oh no, I'm pausing it. If I have to watch it, so do you."
That's a double edged blade, my friend.
You think they aren't interested in the film you like, but they might just have to be "noisy" and don't want an audience.
Just dealt with a similar thing after telling some friends about Murder Drones. My kid got me into it and I love the hell out of it. I tell friends, they watched it, then told me "eh". :(
Murder Drones... please tell me that's basically flying robot wars.

Yes, in a way. It's an eldritch horror comedy. Plenty of weird murdery stuff in it. (That's the whole show there in the link.)
Sign me up for flying battle bots
i have friends who tried to make me watch it but I hated it so so much I was unfortunately in the position of the person saying "don't pause it". I think it's absolutely terrible
I'm not pausing it for you. I'm pausing it for me, so I don't miss anything while you are shuffling around the room disturbing my focus.
i just don't want to interrupt your experience 😭
