Scented candles and flyover states!

[Anonymous]

Really the issue is people who go on and on about trivial things. Let's attend to the plank in our eye - I can think of a whole host of things we DC sophisticates go on and on about that really have no lasting importance!

That was pretty funny. The drumbeats as the drama builds were great, as was the main re-enactor actress.

Don't hate her because she lives somewhere with cleaner air, cheaper prices, and better schools.

Can’t be. I mean - she’s a product of those schools, right?

The fact is, the gentlewoman in the video is far more famous than anyone posting here will ever be. She's crazy like a fox and, I hope, will be rolling in millions soon. Have fun with your boring, accent-free lives, y'all.

So pathetic that people strive for that kind of "fame."

Well, you're talking about her and she's not talking about you .

That's the point, dummy. I will never be a laughingstock because I went on a crazy rant about bath and body works candles and the employees who sell them. Most people deliberately avoid this kind of exposure. Do you really think someone has won the game if people are talking about how ridiculous she is?

no you are laughing stock because you are an adult (presumably) who uses the word ‘dummy’.

This is a REALLY OLD THREAD about an even older video. This happened more than five years ago. The woman has probably moved onto a new scent by now.

I know this is a really old thread, but I don't like scented candles and don't have any connection to flyover states so didn't open this the first time.

I'm so glad to whoever revived this. I am laughing out loud - not only about the original video, but some of the comments on here. Can't stop laughing.

going down the rabbit hold, this chick also did a starbucks rant (a 2-parter) because they ran out of cold brew - and on "LAUNCH DAY"

Not the PP but why do people who live in the MD and VA burbs snub their noses at what they perceive to be "flyover" country? Large swaths of both states still went to Trump.

I hope to live in flyover country one day when I can leave this Godforsaken city. I was born here, I've lived here my whole life except for military deployments, and I can't wait until we can leave.

Seriously, this is a WASTE of any God-given talent she has. A total f-ing waste.

Ok fascist

I went to college in Appleton and know a few people scattered around northeast Wisconsin and they all thought this was totally ridiculous. Funny, but ridiculous. She is not representative of everyone in Wisconsin.
