What is this trend about

The creator asks someone a bunch of normal questions, like where they want to go on vacation or how many states they’ve visited. Then comes the edit. The original questions are removed and replaced with questions that make the person sound way more suspicious than they actually are.

For example, “Where’s your dream vacation?” can become “Where do your secret mistresses live?” Or “How many states have you visited?” suddenly becomes “How many times have you cheated?”

The person is just giving their real answer. It’s the edited question that makes everything sound guilty.
