Shit like this and the popularity of Wojaks is really surreal. I don’t think Pepe was ever as popular as Wojaks is now. There are fucking high-ranking politicians using wojaks to make fun of things and people.

i was 13 in 2017 and back then when getting to know each other, we’d ask each other normal things; favorite rapper or artist, favorite sports player, favorite youtuber, etc. ik someone who works with younger teens now and says one half-jokingly asked the group “favorite male model,” and several boys said “chico” and someone went on a bit how his cheekbones, facial harmony, hunter eyes, canthal tilt, whatever are “perfect,” and someone else was arguing his favorite model mogs him.

these kids deadass make/watch tiktok looksmaxxing edits of male supermodels they admire and/or envy. it’s usually partly ironic and they laugh around when they talk about these things but obviously they still seem to buy into it, seems like boys now are insanely more obsessed and conscious about looks than they used to be, often to the point of dysmorphia. their judgements on face features also feel like just straight up racist phrenology

The same can be said for the sopranos lol

what’s more surreal is that there’s a bunch of weird figures of speech from literal 1999 that somehow are more popular now than 10 years ago

til adderall makes me mew

it’s not just a meme 90% of them actually believe it
