Honestly I think it's one of those things where the sheer stupidity of it is half of what sustains it.

It's literally just a regional way of mimicking the sound of spitting on something, but for some reason it got enough people to snort in amusement to become self sustaining meme material.

Plus the fact that it's blunt talk about sex stuff makes teenagers feel edgy for posting it.

Not to mention the girl herself has done a good job of milking these 15 minutes of fame for all they are worth. I probably would have forgotten about her already if I didn’t keep seeing her face on podcasts and news shows.

Her most recent attempt at launching her own podcast was pretty lackluster though, so maybe we are finally reaching the end of the arc.

Waiting patiently for a butt stuff girl to appear on the scene next.
