i miss the old tumblr days when you annoyed someone even slightly and they went on a multi paragraph rant. one that started with “you know what? no. fuck this. fuck you.” and contained insults like “moldy sock” and threats like “i’ll steal your kneecaps”. all while maintaining the attitude of a YA novel protagonist facing capital punishment rallying troops against a dictatorship.
I think it needs to be said cause currently I’m not seeing anybody mentioning it or providing context, but the whole ‘girl dinner’ meme was created by a black woman on tiktok and the joke was that within her video she’s just finding a random assortment of lunch meat and crackers and shit. the joke was about like being broke and having to scrounge up a meal in the same vein as the ice soup meme. but then in typical fashion, white women stole it and co-opted, particularly the coquette dollete girl interrupted female hysteria types and mutated it into a gender essentialism ed thing. it was never meant to be about disordered eating.
remember that interviews are not about giving a good and honest first impression that they’ll carefully consider. interviews are about saying the special words and phrases they’re looking for that give you points and when they tally those up whoever earned the most job points wins
they don’t want to “know you” they want you to walk in there and regurgitate everything the job description said
isnt even a joke btw if you’re autistic and/or unemployed and nobody taught you this yet i’m really sorry
