I typically ignore most of it in blissful ignorance, but had a recent exposure to someone called FrogBait. On the one hand I get it, especially when she’s ranting about trad wives or people destroying antique houses to make them look like new builds instead of just buying new builds. I was more fascinated by the confusion of seeing the juxtaposition of my childhood 80s (hair of almost everyone) and my college 90s overlaid on such a young person. But that’s cool.

The objectionable part was a mild sense of a quality that I suspect isn’t FrogBait but the entire YouTube personality vibe as a whole that is oddly reminiscent of the brain impact of 1am infomercial loops of the 80s and 90s. Or QVC just on all the time.

As unobjectionable as I found the individual and their product, at base, that type of content possesses a mind numbing, consumption vibe, not unlike a long TV ad. It ends in a frustrated standing up and rushing off to something, anything, productive, to shake off the brain fog. I don’t get why people are so attached to it.

I suspect I sound old saying any of it.
