A new TikTok fad

[karadekoolaid]

I have to make an admission.
Sometimes, when I'm really bored and come across one of these dreadful Tik-Toks, I just throw in a random (usual provocative) post and then sit back to see what the reaction is. Never more than one or two, mind you, because then I'd be a troll
It's amazing how often the reactions are serious/aggressive/protective/condescending/insulting, when really, a comment should be taken with a pinch of salt.
The new, extraordinarily pompous job description of "Influencer" is nothing less than some clever dick thinking he/she can make loads of money from social media without actually working.

I just had to pick that one out....
They are the tallest nation (and I'm one of the undersized ones, getting the average down)

Where are you seeing this kinda stuff though? I guess I don't have much of an online presence outside of this forum and with my work websites.

Instagram, mostly. I've got an account for my food - chutneys/pickles/conserves, cocktail snacks, private dinners, food courses,etc. - so I spend a little time each day on that. Sometimes it helps me score a dinner party or two!

That was my immediate reaction when I first heard it
I imagine the tiktoker was actually rather more "wide" than "tall"

So they weren't ducking their head, they were tucking their rear-end?

Well that explains a lot.

Influencer = lazy piece of shi*.

Of course I'm the guy that actually wore out, now replaced, God's given joints with man made ones...
