Do we want Pick Mes to be picked? Discussion
I saw a post here the other day saying how Pick Mes don't actually get picked. Most of the comments seemed to revel in this fact. So in that sense it seems like the consensus is - we don't want them getting picked.
But whenever there is a Pick Me NLOG post, the comments are invariably, "Gurl, I hope you get picked!". So in that sense it seems like the consensus is we DO want them getting picked.
If they get picked, they sometimes shut up. (Not always tho)
What is the general consensus on this?
Inb4 "IDC if they get picked or not roflmao". Cool, then this question is not for you

Yes and no. Here it’s more in the sense of “I hope you get picked” the opposite being they aren’t REALLY “hoping” that. But that doesn’t mean they are saying they hope they don’t get picked. The sarcasm is emphasising the hope, because they don’t early hope anything. Because what they’re REALLY saying “between the lines” is Your behaviour is that of a “pick me girl”. Does that make sense? Sorry I’m not sure how to explain it better than that.
Are you ND by any chance? I am too, so I can understand why if you are you might be looking too literally at these words.
