addendum to that previous post i reblogged, but i work in advertising, with a huge chunk of my work being social media content in particular, and this has made me fluent in several digital advertising accents
root sentence: your cute cat deserves high-quality cat food!
IG advertising accent: your boycat needs the perfect boy kibble!
FB advertising accent: your purr-fect fur-iend only deserves the best!
TikTok advertising accent: POV*: youre a spoiled cat
(*key that the term POV is used objectively incorrectly in the video)
tumblr blogger accent**, referential whimsy dialect***: you FEED miette subpar ingredience?? JAIL. JAIL FOR ONE THOUSAND YEARS.
(**key that there is no advertising accent for tumblr, because advertising on tumblr is the most nonsensical gibberish in the world and no big client in their right mind would want to seriously invest in advertising on this platform)
(***key that there are several tumblr dialects honestly. off the top of my head i can identify: referential whimsy, cynical coolness panopticon, swinging at a hornet's nest, substack article media analysis, absolute word salad delivered with the confidence of a tedtalk speaker, etc. it gets even more complex if we go by eras of tumblr, because who could forget the "NO. FUCK THIS. FUCK YOU. SIT YOUR ASS DOWN BECAUSE [explanation of a thing that is done in a wholly aggressive manner influenced by a superficial understanding of karkat vantas' speech patterns whether OP is aware of it or not]" of the early 2010s. i say this all with genuine love in my heart)
