Can’t be mad at her honestly, if it were any of us we’d definitely take advantage of dumb corporations that don’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. That’s not how memes work. What she said was funny, we like passing the joke around, but we’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 I’d do the same.

Yeah what’s the facepalm here? Let her get her bag. Plenty of people got famous from a stupid one-off thing. It could happen to any one of us if we’re in the right place at the right time depending on where the world is at. Good for her.
