amaxun said to badgerhat: Lee and Gaara, 32 please!

32: Youtube/Vine/Vimeo/video-based social media celebrity AU

Gaara runs an inexplicably popular cactus review vlog in which he blandly describes the various pros and cons of different species of succulents and desert plants. Every single comment is surreally on-topic and well-thought-out. His channel has 2300+ subscribers despite the fact that he has only 12 uploaded videos. 

Lee’s chanel has 4 subscribers and 300+ uploaded videos, mostly jerkily-filmed footage of his workout routines, occasionally interrupted by too-close clips of things he likes- a squirrel at the training grounds, an out-of-focus butterfly, Gai sensei eating curry. The few comments that can be found on his videos are usually about his creepy eyebrows, though there is one guy who always comments “NICE ;)” or “WOW!!” Lee is unperturbed by the negative/lack of attention and diligently updates every Tuesday and Thursday.  

last night a guy said to me “you are very, very pretty” and i said “i know” and he said like patronisingly “you KNOW?” and i said “you think you’re the first person to ever compliment me?” and he didn’t know where to go from there

remember: if you’re attending a school that gives you a .edu email address, you can upgrade your amazon.com account to prime for free by going on and choosing the college/student membership. that means you get the prime 2-day shipping and even some textbook discounts (not to mention AFAIK you enjoy the amazon instant access for free for the duration of your edu email being active)

well at least someone is looking out for students

actually the duration of amazon prime for .edu students is only 6 months, not however long your .edu email is active. after 6 months they’ll start to charge you $99 a year (the normal price) so be sure to cancel your prime membership before they charge you. everything else about this post is true though, just saying.
