# Hilarious Habitation Videos UCB's 'Things That Seem Normal When You Live Alone' Video is a Hit By Courtney Scharf | Published 2012-05-06 | Pop Culture Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/living-alone References: [joannagoddard.blogspot](http://joannagoddard.blogspot.ca/2012/05/have-you-ever-lived-alone.html) & [ucbcomedy](http://www.ucbcomedy.com/) The 'Things That Seem Normal When You Live Alone' is a [hilarious take](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/its-different-out-here) on solo habitation. After years of living with friends, family and countless roommates in between, many idealize the idea of living alone. This new video from UCB Comedy, however, may have viewers thinking twice about leaving their fellow occupants behind. Hilarious and all too true, the folks behind Things That Seem Normal When You Live Alone have produced an undeniably relatable and lighthearted take on living alone. Free from the constraints of former roommate's standards of living, the audience watches as the main character slowly slips into a decidedly unselfconscious state of isolation. From peeing with the bathroom door open to defrosting chicken in the shower (not a bad idea), the leading lady does things that many people have definitely thought about, but not necessarily followed through with. Perhaps an argument for keeping those pesky roommates around, this video is sure to go viral. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 0.7/10 - Popularity: 4% | Activity: 9% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Pop Culture](https://www.trendhunter.com/popculture) > [Humor](https://www.trendhunter.com/humor) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Solo Habitation Humor:** Opportunity for comedy and entertainment content focused on the funny side of living alone. - **Relatable Daily Routines:** Opportunity to create products or services that cater to the unique habits and experiences of people living alone. - **Social Commentary on Living Solo:** Opportunity for thought-provoking discussions and insights into the psychological and sociological aspects of solo habitation. ### Where This Applies - **Entertainment:** Disruptive innovation opportunities for creating comedy sketches, web series, or stand-up routines centered around the humor of living alone. - **Home and Lifestyle:** Opportunity to develop products or services specifically tailored to the needs and preferences of individuals living alone. - **Psychology and Sociology:** Disruptive innovation opportunities for research, analysis, and discussions exploring the impact of living alone on individuals and society. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Plush-Starring Sitcom-Style Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/life-in-stitches.md) - [Bizarre Transformative Comedy Films](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chicken-nugget-trailer.md) - [Low-Waste Cleaning Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cult-of-clean.md) - [Social Experiment Virtual Apartments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/uncanny-spaces.md) - [Friend-Finding Virtual Hangouts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/strangely.md) - [Whimsical Home Tours](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-pillsbury-doughboy.md) - [Vacation Rental Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/airbnb-1.md) - [Retiree Influencer Houses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/retirement-house.md) - [Humorous Menswear Ads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mens-wearhouse.md)
