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.

[–] [email protected] 26 points 2 months ago

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.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 months ago (1 children)

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.

May it watch over us, amen

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago

You mean this girl?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

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.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago

Honestly...I'd take it if it set me up for life. Realistically, 99.9% of the people who can't see past the moniker would never have mattered to me anyway and as for the stuff about your life being distilled to just that, who gives a flying fuck as long as you make sure you're good with the life you lived and do right by the people you actually care about and that care about you. Besides "for life" in 2024 means "a year of being inactive, max".

With that being said, someone in this thread said this is a symptom of a diseased society and I think they're onto something.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

Well, she's also pretty attractive so she's got a 1-up right there

[–] [email protected] 0 points 2 months ago

Any woman with attractive appearance, no matter how crazy/stupid, is set for life, envying this is meaningless

[–] [email protected] 52 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I officially have no idea what's going on...

Am I out of touch?... No, it's the young who are wrong!

[–] [email protected] 31 points 2 months ago (3 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 23 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Honestly can't blame her. It's better than having to do a real job and not be rich.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Not blaming her for exploiting that, but it does feel like a symptom of the underlying disease in our society

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago

Oh yea for sure, we're fucked.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Some people should really meet my transporter pattern buffer...

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

I wish I was shitting you, Miles.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 months ago (2 children)

So have they confirmed whether the Tesla robots will spit on my penis? That seems to be what they're hinting at?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

Like anything, You have to pay extra for that....

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

I can confirm nor deny

[–] [email protected] 47 points 2 months ago (4 children)

Tweets are gone, they're called Xits now.

[–] ruckblack 41 points 2 months ago (2 children)

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.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 2 months ago (2 children)

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...

[–] [email protected] 17 points 2 months ago

"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."

[–] ruckblack 13 points 2 months ago

That is bizarre lol

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 months ago (1 children)

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.

[–] ruckblack 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

That's fair lol. I can't understand people who still use it.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

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

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 months ago

I used to pop my Xits when I was in high school....

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.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I will disagree with him on toots for Mastodon. It's just a great.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

nah it's stupid af and it means farts

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Accurate description of the average shortform post, whether it's a tweet a toot or a skeet.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

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

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

Drag is disappointed that Hank is still on Twitter. Drag respects Hank and doesn't want him giving the Nazis his time and energy

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

"EXits" according to my housemate.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

I pronounce the x like the president of China Xi jinping. So xits="shitts"

[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 months ago (1 children)

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.

I'm not. OP's screenshot is from The Dead Bird Site.

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.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 2 months ago (1 children)

For me it's not about her it's just an annoying and unfunny meme.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I saw a lot of people complaining about her and how she got famous. Not here specifically but in general.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Good on her for actually trying some stuff and not just immediately jumping into OF though.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

I really don't follow this person so I don't really care but it's the assumptions that she would do only fans just because shes a woman and that there would be anything wrong with it if she did that're both kinda gross to me ngl.
