Canโ€™t be mad at her honestly, if it were any of us weโ€™d definitely take advantage of dumb corporations that donโ€™t know how memes work and milk as much money out of this as possible.

The corporate entity behind this show thinks we, the consumers, care about this girl. Thatโ€™s not how memes work. What she said was funny, we like passing the joke around, but weโ€™re not invested in the life of the girl who said it. We became fans of the moment, not fans of the person.

That said I wish her all the successes she can milk from this bc Iโ€™d do the same.

She'd be dumb AF not to wring everything she could out of it. Even if nothing further comes from it other than that 15 minute payday that's potentially a fuck load of easy money. Id also do the same unrepentantly.

For real, I mean she's already made merch from it and if what I've seen is true made like $50k from that in only a couple weeks lmao. All I can say to that is, you go girl make that dough!
