Evolution of an Internet Crush

No history today just vibes…valentines day vibes.

Remember spending hours on tumblr chit chatting w ur internet homies and kinda silently crushing on one of them?

Then you find out they gotta a lil crush on you. Now you flirting.

Kiki Kiki on Skype until you fall asleep.

Might get you a lil money saved up to go visit them in PG County.

wtf are you even doing in Bowie, Maryland??

Now y’all doing the long distance thing. It’s cute or whateverrr

They come out to LA to come visit you a few times.

It’s cool for a minute

Now there’s issues, y’all can’t stand each other and the tumblrverse is going up for the drama.

It was fun while it lasted. ☹️

Although we should be entitled to financial compensation, the lived experience for so many of us internet babies has now been compartmentalized in a lil playlist on the show today
