      @@kittykittybangbang9367 This is late but I believe it spawned from pyramid schemes, specifically ones that sold supplements, oils, leggings, and other funky stuff. A lot of vulnerable women looking for money were “hired” to go “house to house” to sell the product and eventually the “girlboss” thing became popular amongst the employees. After that I think it became a meme all over Instagram and TH-cam and then the behavior of the employees were implemented into the live, laugh, love thing. That’s how I remember it happening at least, I remember watching Illuminaughty’s videos on pyramid schemes. Idk if that makes sense tho that’s the best I can explain it.

My sister would show them to me 24/7 like they were the funniest things ever. She had hinders saved to her phone. People reposted them constantly. you’re a “funny” person online and you can’t think of the 400th thing to post for that day? Just google teenager posts and copy one!

  • @Raionmimi
    @Raionmimi 2 ปีที่แล้ว +372

    I think a large part of the Rapunzel fascination was she was that she had a toxic parental figure that wouldn’t let her live her own life, which is one of the most relatable thing for teens, whether their parents were actually toxic or not.
    It just made her the perfect target for self-projection because she was the most fleshed out princess at the time with a creative and cutesy personality and an ideal relationship with a guy that wasn’t just “Prince Charming.”
    A lot of people that liked Rapunzel most likely had Ariel as their fave princess prior. She’s an advanced version with more autonomy, a goal that was completely separate from a man, and the idea that her real loving parents were out there (though Ariel’s was more centered on leaving home to explore the human world before she met Eric)

    I knew a girl in high school who photoshopped a rapunzel edit to look like her and then Flynn to look like Markiplier, and then flipped that Flynn and made him look like Jacksepticeye, so it looked like she was being held by both.
    And they were all in flower crowns.
    She was super sweet though and genuinely wanted to be my friend, and I didnt mind. She was a little quirky, and so was I, just on the opposite spectrum. I was a fan of obscure indie horror games and internet virus dissections. We worked out as friends though.

    I actually didn't hate the unicorn in terms of taste. I kind of thought it was like a sour gummy worm type of flavor, and I'm a simp for sour, so it worked out. The real horror was making the damn thing. To make the fraps that color, we would add in a sour powder. If anyone's familiar with powdered candies of the time like fun dip, pixie stix, or baby bottle pops, it was that sort of candy dust. Except it was incredibly fine. Genuinely a breathing hazard in the state it was in. If you made one wrong move with that stuff, you would be breathing in sour unicorn dust for hours.
    Funniest thing I remember from that day though was a girl buying a venti frap, striking one of those "basic cute girl" poses while sipping it and taking a pic for Instagram, then immediately tossing the frap in the trash. Good times.

    I think the reason why Rapunzel was so popular in common white girl culture is due to three things.
    1: Unlike previous princess who looked more like full fledged adults in appearance (Cinderella is an example,) Rapunzel looks noticeably younger due to the art style. She looks like a young adult or even a teenager, which could be considered the usual age range of the basic white girl.
    2: Her personality is very bubbly, cheerful, and dare I say it “quirky” which could be considered usual traits of the common white girl’s personality.
    3: The art style, unlike disney Princess films before this art style is more cute than realistic, the style feels very modern, cute, and quirky for it’s time. So I think the basic girl culture was drawn to this in particular because people thought the art style was cute and quirky and the rest was history.
    And as one comment put it, Rapunzel was basically the ideal common white girl.

To sum it up: being a child with almost no restrictions on TH-cam can easily lead you to stuff like "Cupcakes" and "Rainbow Factory", which are popular MLP Creepypastas. Then, you transition to more well-known stuff like Jeff the Killer, Ben Drowned, and Slenderman.

    My personal reasoning is because of Disney’s telling of the Repunzel story is basically about a girl going on an adventure with an arguable handsome man outside of her home, which would be against her mother’s best wish, because she was told to always listen to her mother and be afraid of the outside. Same thing with Ariel but just swap the motherly figure with a fatherly figure and replace the bad intentions with a over protective nature.
    TLDR: Repunzel and Ariel’s story’s both have a basic idea of the beginning force to drive the plot being rebelling against Guardian figures to go after a handsome man.

We had a really cool routine with shakers with that rythym and we’d toss them between each other. When the preppy annoyingly catchy cup song came out it just wasn’t the same anymore. PSA that rhythmic pattern predates the cup song and I’m kind of salty it’s now only associated with that😒

    I think the reason that Rapunzel became more or less a figurehead of these types of accounts is because she was 'quirky' (and sort of the animated version of the MPDG) without being too off-putting. Lots of these meme accounts try to appeal to the 'socially awkward, I have only 3 friends' type of person, and Rapunzel was the cute Disney version of that.

    Disney princesses were seen as part of an aesthetic back then... they were used as a lot of fashion inspiration on the app “we heart it”. similar to the way bratz dolls became part of a baddie/ kardashian aesthetic, how anime characters are part of egirl/ eboy aesthetics and more currently kind of how the newest trend is focusing on shows from the early 2000s like totally spies and winx which work well with the modern y2k.

      I'm glad I'm not the only person who saw the connection between the basic Rapunzel edits of yesteryear and the baddie edits of today. You could even include the gangster edits of cartoon characters to that list - I guess it's a form of self expression, making a character you already relate to more like yourself or like your ideal self. My favourite edits have to be the baddie roblox ones hahah

    I'm also 99% sure that the "beauty/ diy / tutorial/ food / baby" repost accounts on Instagram are robots. I have a theory that all of them that advertise the same thing are owned by the same person/ company
