I don't see the hate, am I missing something? She got lucky and decided to make a career out of it instead of her boring job that she probably hated. I don't really get her content so I just ignore it. Don't see why there is so much hate assuming she isn't some Nazi or something.
For me it's not about her it's just an annoying and unfunny meme.
I saw a lot of people complaining about her and how she got famous. Not here specifically but in general.
Good on her for actually trying some stuff and not just immediately jumping into OF though.
I officially have no idea what's going on...
Am I out of touch?... No, it's the young who are wrong!
I'll beam you down, miles.
The girl in the picture is Haliey Welch, she went viral a while back as an interviewee on a program where girls were asked about their secrets on getting a man crazy during sex.
Her answer was "You gotta give 'em that 'hawk tuah' and spit on that thang,". 'hawk tuah' bring an onomatopoeia for reeling back up spit from the back of ones throat and then spitting it out, suggesting her secret was spitting on the member of the opposite sex. This bit went viral.
She rode that fifteen seconds of Fame out on Instagram, becoming rich with being the 'Hawk Tuah' girl.
Now she's shilling for Tesla
Honestly can't blame her. It's better than having to do a real job and not be rich.
Not blaming her for exploiting that, but it does feel like a symptom of the underlying disease in our society
Oh yea for sure, we're fucked.
Some people should really meet my transporter pattern buffer...
I wish I was shitting you, Miles.
So have they confirmed whether the Tesla robots will spit on my penis? That seems to be what they're hinting at?
I can confirm nor deny
I spend years getting a degree and working my ass off to get into a job i'll work for the rest of my life, just to afford a slightly comfortable existence. This girl says some dumb redneck shit for 5 seconds and is set for life.
We live in a society. Bottom text.
Well, she's also pretty attractive so she's got a 1-up right there
Don't question The Economy. There is no better way to make decisions about wealth allocation. This is the most efficient and fair way. Repeat after me.
"the invisible hand"
May it watch over us, amen
Would you like to be known as the chick who "spits on dicks" or as a the guy who "sticks a thumb up the butt" if it meant you're set for life? I think you're viewing the "set for life" part but you're forgetting that you're also setting a moniker for life. She can do whatever she wants with the rest of her life but all people will remember is hawk tuah and that will be so for the rest of her life.
I don't know about you but I'd rather take my otherwise irrelevant existence rather than have my entire being distilled down to a single thing I did.
To be fair, this is pretty much the story of any right wing politician too.. at least this girl (arguably) didn't ruin the lives of millions.
You mean this girl?
Tweets are gone, they're called Xits now.
Idk, I think my only favorite thing about the whole debacle is that almost literally everyone just ignored musk's whole name change thing, and still call it twitter and tweets. Because everyone recognizes what a fucking stupid name X is lmfao.
One of my wife's friends gets really upset when people call it Twitter for some reason. She doesn't even use it. Just gets irate and reminds everyone the name was changed so if you want people to know what you're talking about you should call it X.
Strange hill to choose...
"Do you use twitter?"
wifes friend
"IT'S CALLED X NOW!!! NOBODY KNOWS WHAT TWITTER IS!!! IF YOU WANT PEOPLE TO KNOW WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT, CALL IT X!!!"
looks at her, looks back at the wife
"So do you use twitter?"
wifes friend
"NOBODY USES TWITTER ANYMORE SINCE ELON MUSK BOUGHT IT!!!"
"Yeah, ok. You're right, but not for the reasons you think."
That is bizarre lol
I guess everyone ignoring it allows me to remind people it's gone to shit.
if everyone leaned into it I wouldn't be able to interject.
That's fair lol. I can't understand people who still use it.
a lot use it for art or porn, or both. i heard Japanese people use twitter as one of their main social media platforms as well
I used to pop my Xits when I was in high school....
"EXits" according to my housemate.
I pronounce the x like the president of China Xi jinping. So xits="shitts"
I prefer how Hank Green approaches it
I will disagree with him on toots for Mastodon. It's just a great.
nah it's stupid af and it means farts
Accurate description of the average shortform post, whether it's a tweet a toot or a skeet.
skeet is stupid too. so is bleet. they all sound like trying too hard to catch the tweet fame. it's thoroughly uncool. like when bing tried to be a verb like google
I'm on Hank's page on this, I think everyone agrees with him, and my proclivity towards correcting the use of twitter/tweet is deliberate absurdism to point out X is fucking stupid and maybe you should find an alternative.
it's pronounced Xitter, btw.
Drag is disappointed that Hank is still on Twitter. Drag respects Hank and doesn't want him giving the Nazis his time and energy
This would have garnered a sensible chuckle showing up on my feed 10 years ago.
Now its a reminder of how fucking manufactured and over-promoted whatever the trending meme on X The Everything App ends up being. Reminds me of the "Pieces of Flare" bit from Office Space.
Why tf are you on X?
I'm not. OP's screenshot is from The Dead Bird Site.
