Why is she popular? She's not funny, she's not intelligent, she's not controversial, she doesn't whore herself out, and she doesn't have any particular talent or shtick. She's just so... bland. What's her appeal? Why does she have so many simps?

She used to post on /b/ and made YouTube videos. She definitely used to be more edgy. The phrase, "shoe on head," was frequently asked when somebody would post a picture of themselves on /b/. Because it's almost entirely teenage boys, the chances of talking to a guy posting stolen pictures from some girl's Photobucket account was almost a guarantee. So guys started requesting weird things like, "post a picture with a shoe on your head," to prove the girl was actually a girl. I hope I typed this out coherently. I'm sleep deprived

And even before the sharpie, the demand to see a topless photo before any "genuine" conversation would be allowed to take place

It’s pastiche?

She's off-brand Bawksy.

It might be that she has a symmetrical face and appealing features like most popular yters?
