Internet Meme

A girl is sitting in a computer chair, her face inches from the video camera. She has long brown hair that looks like it needs a good brushing, brown eyes surrounded by oval glasses, and buck teeth. In the background, a video of Taylor Swift singing Should’ve Said No is playing. As you when guess, when you press play, she’ll start singing along. She seems to enjoy singing; she has a slew of other videos of her singing. Unfortunately for her, everyone else hates it.

The video was posted December 24, 2008 and currently has 7,775,770. It’s a mystery why this video is popular at all. The girl’s singing is absolutely horrible. She’s constantly off-pitch, doesn’t even know all the words, and can’t pronounce half the words. Seriously, her teeth must prevent her from speaking correctly, and it’s just weird.

Even though the singing is horrible, you’ll most likely find yourself feeling sorry for her. She puts up all these videos, thinking she’s a great singer, and she’s just not. It’s painful to watch, because you even find yourself feeling embarrassed for her since she doesn’t realize she’s bad. Some people say comment things like I feel sorry for her but wow! or I’m convulsing and on the verge of tears. Heelp, anyone. Other, more negative comments say things like when you sing… the birds die, I would rather be involved with a head on collision with a train than watch this again, and some people just get straight to the point and say you suck.

Surprisingly enough, comments for the video have not been disabled yet. Not surprisingly, the girl keeps making videos since she thinks she’s great at it. However, hopefully someone’s comment gets through to her someday and this girl can finally stop embarrassing herself.
