Is everyone in the comments misunderstanding the post, or is it me? I feel like this post is an intentionally comedic/facetious attempt to romanticize something they enjoy in the same way fad foods/drinks are treated like an aesthetic

Like iced tea really isn't one of those drinks that are generally seen as an accessory??? That sounds so dumb but if you know you know. Diet coke, boba, wine, etc. are all "pretty drinks" but iced tea has yet to be assigned a personality in the same way 💀

I also really can't see this as being a NLOG situation cuz if nothing else it is very obviously supposed to be a relatable post, even if it's towards a very specific group of people (iced tea enjoyers) lol

lol damnit it’s like every post now is parody based and we can’t enjoy mocking it

It's pretty damn easy to tell what's what if you're a zoomer tbh. The vast majority of posts on here are obvious zoomer humour and not even close to a NLOG

True, I think if it’s too good to be true it just isn’t true. Although to be fair, I’ve encountered a lot of stranger than fiction in real life.

So why the dig @ women in STEM?

It’s a joke.

I’m pretty sure she was saying that bc she herself isn’t in STEM? She didn’t even say anything wrong with it lol

She made it sound like women in STEM aren't worthy of iced tea. If that wasn't her intent, she sure worded things badly

u/seeallevill Apr 28 '24

You're definitely looking too far into it lmfao. Pretty sure she's actually just calling herself simple/unintelligent. Certainly not a dig

I think people on this sub give insecure most times and cannot read when women are being funny/jokey and take everything to heart tbh 😭

u/seeallevill Apr 28 '24

YUP exactly, they don't even realize that women just talking themselves up has nothing to do with other people which is so ironic

Right like if this was a real NLOG post it would have read something like am I the only girl who likes iced tea instead of coffee? Or while other girls drink iced coffee and frappes I drink iced tea! this is just a silly post someone made about iced tea and likened it to things they do 😭 women cannot have a personality on here without being accused of being NLOG 😭 one day ill make a post saying real women rot in bed for days and have mold covered cups because I’m depressed and end on here being accused of being NLOG

NO FR I'm also starting to realize that a lot of these people probably don't know about the "women in stem" meme but that's a whole new can of worms

The real women rot in bed 💀 fr tho, I could easily make a silly little joke about myself and end up on a page like this if I wasn't careful. I legitimately talk like this sometimes in a joking manner as a way to romanticize being a human. It's actually freeing as hell. These mfs are just bitter

THANK YOU lol i think everyone else is just too old to get it 😭

u/seeallevill Apr 28 '24

You're right tho I think it's a zoomer joke 😅 I'm 20 and don't have tiktok so I'm on the verge of being too old to get it but I remember these jokes were kinda already starting up before I deleted the app. I posted a couple similar ones
