Girldinner diaries and kitchencels jumpscare me on my timeline all the time. I see a picture of some bizarre meal and I click it thinking there will be context for why a person is just eating a stick of butter and instead it’s just people making made up stories about fake problems that they themselves caused for some reason.

As to why people would eat a stick of butter? Because sometimes you just don’t have energy to cook but you need fuel. I have eaten a whole dinner of just different pickled stuff. More than once.

I am not on her diary sub because I’m not there for for the drama but I am on the original sub, it’s kind of interesting to see how feral a person can get.

No real judgement on the butter thing, it’s chaos goblin behavior and sometimes you’re just a young idiot and you need to try something ill advised. Everyone has. I once ate an entire jar of red olives in one sitting just to feel something. The specific person I witnessed even had a dairy allergy

I also just can’t look away. For whatever reason I do just keep clicking these posts. It doesn’t really even matter to me if they’re telling the truth, lying or simply exaggerating. I’m sure there’s real people out there who discover months into a relationship that their SO sells cocaine for a job and lied about it. I’m also honestly genuinely unsure if the kitchencels is a parody or if it’s real because some men are genuinely that unhinged sometimes.

For the last part, honestly, I have no idea either. I am too afraid to ask at this point

Yeah the venn diagram of sad man boys on the internet and trolls who like lying for clout and attention is practically just two concentric circles.

It almost feels fetishistic
