Imagine the biggest fuckup of your life and it gets reposted in every social media every few weeks. it'll follow her for life.

Imagine her grandson telling her about this funny meme he saw, and it is this again!!

She was actually offered it back because the dude she told to suck her dick requested it.

Old and incorrect. She didn't in the end and this screenshot is ancient ragebait, the only thing worse than current ragebait.

Even better, it was at the behest of homie whom she insulted. The world isn't all doom and gloom. It's close, but not quite there yet.

So people just reply back without stalking the person's whole life.

this shit is so old, but old fuck should be sucking dick and balls instead of policing how people celebrate anyway

Tbf, Homer Hickam is pretty well respected around NASA (he was the main character in October Sky). He also said in an interview later that he didn't have any say over their internship being withdrawn, it was all the retweets with people hastagging NASA that got NASA's people's attention.

and to be fair all be said was "language", he didn't know that the OP would be replying with the receipts that would get them rejected by NASA

Jamie Loftus had a great interview with them. Highly recommend. https://www.iheart.com/podcast/1119-sixteenth-minute-of-fame-172216473/episode/suck-my-dick-and-balls-i-198420059/
