I didn't find the Chewbacca Mom video overly hilarious! My husband watched in fits of laughter. Obviously so did millions of other people. It was shared by friends in my facebook feed over a dozen times the day it broke the Internet. They all thought she was amazing and wanted to be her best friend. One of my friends said, "if you aren't laughing hysterically and wanting to hang out with this lady all day, you are dead inside!" (I dearly love the friend who posted that, and she'd be the one I would guess if I had to decide blindly who posted that.). That lady was definitely fun and I chuckled to myself while watching it, but I was over it by the time the video ended.
What did you think of it?

I thought she was cute and amusing but it wasn't the funniest video ever but even though I did think she was really cute and it did make me smile to watch

I stopped watching too. She looks like a fun person, but I could not understand how the video went viral. I giggled while watching the first part, but I found the build up more entertaining.

I usually laugh when other people laugh. I found her enthusiasm humorous, but not nearly as funny as she thought it was!

I just watched it earlier. She is cute and appears to be a really fun person etc. However to me that seems to be one of those you had to be there things that would be much funnier in person. I smiled and giggled a little but was definitely not laughing hysterically.

I loved her before she put the mask on bc she just seems like she is fun and enjoys herself. But I thought the mask part was stupid.

I quit watching long before it ended. Was cute, but do not get the hype.

Well, I might change my thread title now! I truly thought I was alone in missing how this was the single best viral video ever. I was bracing for a lot of responses telling me I was bereft of a soul. I thought maybe the anticipation was missing for me since the freeze frame of the video was her in the mask, so I already knew what the build up was all about. I didn't watch it for a day until my husband came home and said I HAD TO!

Her laugh was infectious but I didn't find it hilarious.

I liked the first part of the video more: "I had to return something to Kohls because it was too big. I know what all of you are thinking. SHAME!" That made me like her more than the mask.

Did y'all see Kohl's response? They presented her with enough masks for the whole family, $2500 in gift cards, what looked to be every single Star Wars product they sell and 10,000 bonus points. So I guess she is laughing all the way 'to the bank.'

I scrolled past it a bunch of times then broke down then thought my laugh o meter was broke. I thought it was amusing/funny at first but was way over it by the end of the video. The only reason I didn't stop the video because I was waiting for the crazy funny. It was a big let down for me.

Her joy was really contagious to me and I found myself chuckling and/or smiling through the whole video, but everybody doesn't have to feel the same way about it and that's okay.
I still love occasionally watching the wedding video where the bridal party all danced down the aisle. That kind of pure joy is just fun, to me, to experience every now and then, even when just watching from the sidelines.

Not funny. Passed right by it and then felt compelled to watch to see what I was missing. Should have kept scrolling.

I had never heard of this video until I clicked on the link above. It's not really my type of humor.
