At least ONE of us gotta reflect on our current life choices and get them priorities in order before I give you ANY numbers, playboy. He was HURT, ya’ll! Bruh hushed that fuss and moved to the BACK of the bus!! Mans was in that back reflecting FOR REAL!
gobbledygook404: WE BOTH ON THE MARTA
DontTalkToMe_Brenda: I REMEMBER THAT STREAM
tacobellcanteen: THAT MAN WAS DEVASTATED
yungappalachian: he moved to the BACK
midwest_gothic: he needed that moment. that was a growth moment for him.

gobbledygook404: THE ROAD FROM 12 TO 400K
DontTalkToMe_Brenda: she said EVERYTHANG
tacobellcanteen: with the full emphasis
yungappalachian: Monet was looking at her like she had a Powerpoint about it
midwest_gothic: Monet Darby has never once in her life thrown anything at a wall
gobbledygook404: Monet throws nothing. Monet places things deliberately and follows up.
DontTalkToMe_Brenda: the fact that she saw her mama in Monet’s face
tacobellcanteen: Monet and Delia are the same person in different zip codes
yungappalachian: separated at birth
midwest_gothic: Delia Betton and Monet Darby have never met and are already the same person and that’s just facts

gobbledygook404: blessyaheart_shug
DontTalkToMe_Brenda: you HAVE met Monet
tacobellcanteen: several times
yungappalachian: on this very stream
midwest_gothic: blessyaheart_shug has met everyone. blessyaheart_shug has been here for all of it.
Danica Betton was, objectively, by any measure, a very attractive young woman. After graduating with a Bachelors in Art with a minor in Fashion Design and Merchandising, she felt like modeling was the next obvious step. She had everything any photographer or fashion designer could ever want in a model…natural, makeupless beauty, high cheekbones, abs you could bounce a quarter off of, golden bronze skin that absolutely popped in photos, and the type of comfortability in front of a camera you just couldn’t teach. She put together a modeling portfolio. She even got a few low paying jobs here and there. Car magazines, nightclub promos, etc. Danica knew these were chicken change jobs that would maybe get her by until the end of the week. But she pondered maybe, just MAYBE, if she can get her foot in the door, she’d start getting better paying jobs.
But then, The “Asks” got a bit less tasteful. And that’s when she first heard it.
A particular car magazine photographer, wanting to shoot Danica posing on the hood of a custom Dodge Challenger Hellcat build, forgot, or declined to tell her until the very last possible minute of how she was exactly posing, or more importantly, what exactly she was WEARING. Let’s just say it involved water, more underboob and cheek than she was comfortable with, and a particular position that ended in the word “style” on the hood of the car. Danica SERIOUSLY contemplated this, as this was much more money than her previous jobs, and she could get by at least a month on this one job. As Danica reached out her hand for the outfit…
“NOW DANICA RENEE BETTON I DO DECLARE!!!”
“What…the...HELL” Danica whispered to herself. Delia Betton’s voice rang in the back of her head, and stopped her dead in her tracks like Robocop’s OCP protocols. “You know what?? I’m good, and you got several other girls here who’d gladly take that opportunity, so I’ma just gone and step out ya’ll hair now. Ya’ll be good now, Praise God!” Danica scurried away as the photographer looked at her with just the right mix of shock, awe, and a BIT of seething anger, but he was going to be OK.
Danica Betton scurried away from a decent bit of money that day.
Ya’ll, let me tell yall!!! Soon as I heard my mama, I was like “SYSTEM FAILURE…NOW RESETTING” and then I shuffled up out that bih like I just had 3 bags of yungappalachian’s Takis and hot sauce, boy you STILL nasty for that, like I had somewhere SPECIFIC to be ya’ll feel me? Ol’ boy was looking at me like I was either a model that noped on a shoot, or I was about to blow the bathroom UP!!!
gobbledygook404: SYSTEM FAILURE NOW RESETTING
DontTalkToMe_Brenda: she said she shuffled up out that bih
tacobellcanteen: WITH PURPOSE
yungappalachian: why did she bring me into this I was just sitting here
midwest_gothic: you were not just sitting here. you are never just sitting here.
gobbledygook404: the photographer was not ready
DontTalkToMe_Brenda: no photographer is ever ready for a Delia Betton override
tacobellcanteen: he thought he had her. he did NOT have her.
yungappalachian: Delia Betton said not on my watch from 500 miles away
midwest_gothic: Delia Betton’s jurisdiction has no geographical limit and never has
blessyaheart_shug: That’s RIGHT!! 🙂
gobbledygook404: …
DontTalkToMe_Brenda: blessyaheart_shug
tacobellcanteen: BLESSYAHEART_SHUG
yungappalachian: she confirmed it
midwest_gothic: she just confirmed her own jurisdiction and I for one am not surprised
But for real ya’ll, that was probably the best, or only possible way I could have handled that. The ick, yall, it was already giving me the shivers, and my mama’s voice from the back of my head just put the co-sign on it. That’s when I was like “Social Media, that seems right up my alley, I’ma test the waters and see where I get with that.” But my Day Ones know, I had to “recalibrate the agenda”, as my Sister-in-Law would say, a few times.
gobbledygook404: “recalibrate the agenda”
DontTalkToMe_Brenda: Serene Betton has entered the chat through proxy
tacobellcanteen: sister in law said it with her whole chest
yungappalachian: the Betton women are built different at every level of the family tree
midwest_gothic: by marriage or by blood they all arrive with vocabulary
gobbledygook404: Danica out here recalibrating
DontTalkToMe_Brenda: several times
tacobellcanteen: we were THERE for the recalibrations
yungappalachian: the cooking era
DontTalkToMe_Brenda: the fitness era
gobbledygook404: we do not speak of the fitness era
tacobellcanteen: we absolutely do not
midwest_gothic: three videos. her heart was never in it. we knew. she knew. the camera knew.
yungappalachian: rest in peace fitness era you were never going to make it
blessyaheart_shug: I thought that Pilates one was very good!! 🙂
gobbledygook404: BLESSYAHEART_SHUG WATCHED THE FITNESS VIDEOS
DontTalkToMe_Brenda: OF COURSE SHE DID
tacobellcanteen: she watched ALL of them
yungappalachian: she has ALWAYS watched all of them
midwest_gothic: blessyaheart_shug has never missed a single piece of content and we all know it and so does Danica and so does blessyaheart_shug and this is just where we all live now
The first thing Danica tried was makeup tutorials. She knew how to do makeup. She was fairly proficient in putting fashion-related things together. The issue was, Danica Betton did not NEED makeup, and never wore anything resembling makeup a day in her life, outside of lip gloss. She thought that she could binge-watch some makeup tutorials the night before she did her first stream, and in her words, “get put up on game”.
She did not in fact, get “put up on game”. She gained a grand total of five followers, and that’s because she had funny opinions on how she looked after applying the makeup.
“Day Ones, yall remember that. I was looking like Edward Scissorhands in that bih!!!! Ol’ BRIDE OF FRANKENSTEIN head ahh!” “Ol’ “Funeral Home Fresh” head ahh!!!!” I SWEAR to ya’ll I heard Ms. Pearl Ann humming a hymnal for me when I had that makeup on!
gobbledygook404: EDWARD SCISSORHANDS
DontTalkToMe_Brenda: SHE SAID BRIDE OF FRANKENSTEIN HEAD AHH
tacobellcanteen: I REMEMBER THIS STREAM
yungappalachian: I was there for that stream and I want you to know I did not say a word
midwest_gothic: none of us said a word. we were raised right.
gobbledygook404: we were supportive
DontTalkToMe_Brenda: we were VERY supportive
tacobellcanteen: we were lying through our teeth and we would do it again
yungappalachian: FUNERAL HOME FRESH
midwest_gothic: Funeral Home Fresh is the most specific description of anything I have ever heard in my life
gobbledygook404: she clocked herself. we didn’t have to say anything.
DontTalkToMe_Brenda: Danica Betton does not need makeup and the makeup knew it
tacobellcanteen: the makeup was fighting a losing battle from the jump
yungappalachian: Ms. Pearl Ann was humming a hymnal
midwest_gothic: Ms. Pearl Ann knew. Ms. Pearl Ann always knows.
blessyaheart_shug: Ms. Pearl Ann meant well Shug!! She’s a sweet lady!! 🙂
gobbledygook404: …
DontTalkToMe_Brenda: blessyaheart_shug knows Ms. Pearl Ann
tacobellcanteen: OF COURSE SHE DOES
yungappalachian: blessyaheart_shug knows EVERYBODY
midwest_gothic: blessyaheart_shug is from Middlehurst, Virginia and we have always known this, and Danica has always known this, and here we all are.
The next thing Danica tried was cooking videos. Now, growing up in a household where her mother cooked enough food twice a day, every day to feed way more than just the four people sitting at the table, Danica was actually a fairly good cook. Problem was, her face was more in the camera than it was on watching exactly what she was doing.
This did not end well on several fronts.
Ya’ll remember that, I know yall do. I damn near chopped my pinky finger off AND damn near burnt Monet’s apartment down to the GROUND! Cooking wasn’t it for me, ya’ll. Blessyaheart_shug throw that smiley face up on time if you know what I’m talkin bout!
blessyaheart_shug: 🙂🙂🙂
gobbledygook404: SHE ANSWERED ON TIME
DontTalkToMe_Brenda: blessyaheart_shug was READY
tacobellcanteen: she had that smiley face LOADED
yungappalachian: I remember the cooking stream
midwest_gothic: we all remember the cooking stream
gobbledygook404: Monet’s face when she came home
DontTalkToMe_Brenda: MONET’S FACE
tacobellcanteen: Monet Darby walked into that apartment and assessed the damage like an insurance adjuster
yungappalachian: she didn’t even raise her voice
midwest_gothic: Monet Darby has never raised her voice in her life and that somehow makes it worse
gobbledygook404: she just looked at Danica
DontTalkToMe_Brenda: THE LOOK
tacobellcanteen: that was a Delia look delivered by a Monet face
yungappalachian: Danica saw her mama twice that day
midwest_gothic: the stove AND the living room. a two-for-one Delia experience.
And then, ya’ll know I tried doing the Mukbang——
gobbledygook404: and then the mukbang
DontTalkToMe_Brenda: wait
tacobellcanteen: wait wait wait
yungappalachian: DANICA
midwest_gothic: Danica.
gobbledygook404: you are conveniently skipping something
DontTalkToMe_Brenda: GIRL YOU KNOW YOU CONVENIENTLY LEAVING OUT SOME PERTINENT INFORMATION
tacobellcanteen: we remember the mukbang
yungappalachian: we also remember what came BEFORE the mukbang
midwest_gothic: chronologically speaking there was something between the cooking era and the mukbang era
gobbledygook404: something with approximately 10,000 Instagram followers attached to it
DontTalkToMe_Brenda: DANICA RENEE
tacobellcanteen: we are going to need you to account for that time period
yungappalachian: the chat has receipts
midwest_gothic: the chat will always have receipts
blessyaheart_shug: 🙂
gobbledygook404: blessyaheart_shug also has receipts
DontTalkToMe_Brenda: blessyaheart_shug has a FOLDER
tacobellcanteen: of course she does
midwest_gothic: of course she does.
Ooooh, yall make me SICK i swear!!!! All I’ma say about that is, them 10k followers on Instagram wasn’t worth it, yall. I was getting some crazy, CRAZY messages in my DMs. It was definitely going down in the DM’s, and I was trying to go up. They was talking about flying to Dubai and all that. Dubai? The only thing I “Dubai” is clothes and shoes and maybe Flamin’ Hot Cheetos, but never Takis to put hot sauce on. And when I was doing that yall, I swear I heard my daddy breathing behind me everytime I opened up the ’Gram. I heard the sleeves on that jacket of his creaking and everything. I wrapped that one up QUICK.
gobbledygook404: ACE’S JACKET
DontTalkToMe_Brenda: HE WAS BREATHING
tacobellcanteen: she heard the SLEEVES
yungappalachian: the sleeves creaking is sending me to another dimension
midwest_gothic: Ace Betton did not say a single word and he did not have to
gobbledygook404: jurisdiction confirmed on both sides of the family
DontTalkToMe_Brenda: Delia from the front Ace from the back
tacobellcanteen: she was completely surrounded
yungappalachian: there was no version of that where she didn’t wrap it up
midwest_gothic: the 10k followed her here eventually. they just found different content.
gobbledygook404: they found the RIGHT content
DontTalkToMe_Brenda: some of them are in this chat RIGHT NOW
tacobellcanteen: we don’t ask and they don’t tell
yungappalachian: the Dubai DMs though
midwest_gothic: we don’t need to know what was in those DMs and we are at peace with that
blessyaheart_shug: Good for you baby!! 🙂 You did the right thing!!
gobbledygook404: …
DontTalkToMe_Brenda: blessyaheart_shug
tacobellcanteen: the folder
yungappalachian: SHE HAS THE FOLDER
midwest_gothic: blessyaheart_shug closed that folder a long time ago and we are all grateful
Aight, I addressed it, can ya’ll instigating asses let me get to the mukbang story now? Ya’ll really pulled rank on me just then.
gobbledygook404: we absolutely pulled rank
DontTalkToMe_Brenda: we earned that rank
tacobellcanteen: day one privileges
yungappalachian: we have been here since twelve followers and we will use that
midwest_gothic: the mukbang awaits. proceed.
blessyaheart_shug: Yes ma’am go ahead Shug!! 🙂
gobbledygook404: blessyaheart_shug also pulling rank
DontTalkToMe_Brenda: mama outranks everybody
tacobellcanteen: mama always outranks everybody
midwest_gothic: that has always been true and will continue to be true.
Danica tried her hand at mukbang videos next. She actually enjoyed doing them. It even gained her a few more followers, because she had genuinely funny, and blatantly honest opinions on some of the food. She directed a good portion of her ire at The Varsity in Atlanta.
“The chili on this chili dog is dog food, and I swear ya’ll can’t tell me no different”
“The cheese ain’t even melted on the cheeseburger, y’all. This shit made out of vibranium. “THEE POWA OF THE BLACK PANTHA WILL NOW BE STRIPPED AWAY” head ahh cheese”
“Swear these fries taste like Ms. Savannah’s Sunday potluck cornbread. Bland and soggy.”
Even though she was actually gaining some steam with the mukbangs, she had started feeling an eerie, almost existential dread, that continuing this would eventually lead to morbid obesity and trying to cry and eat on camera at the same time, like some videos she had watched.
You never cry and eat on camera at the same time.
This feeling was justified when Danica Renee Betton, 22 years old, standing five feet, six inches tall and formerly a fit one hundred and twenty pounds, stepped on a scale.
She had gained five pounds.
Danica Renee Betton never bought food from The Varsity again.
That existential dread ain’t no joke, ya’ll. And when I put on them five pounds? I was like Aw HELL NAW! And that’s when I started doing them fitness videos. Look ya’ll, I work out enough just to get these abs and glutes right, ya’ll know that. But my metabolism be METABOLIZING, okay? And ya’ll know I like my clothes big. Them yoga pants was damn near ’bout to give me a hysterectomy ya’ll I swear, and I’m tryin’ to have at least a FEW kids ONE day. I was way past camel toe. I was Rhinoceros Footin’ I SWEAR.
gobbledygook404: RHINOCEROS FOOTIN
DontTalkToMe_Brenda: I AM DECEASED
tacobellcanteen: she went PAST camel toe
yungappalachian: she named a whole new level
midwest_gothic: Rhinoceros Footin is a condition I was not aware of and now I will never stop being aware of it
gobbledygook404: the yoga pants did not survive
DontTalkToMe_Brenda: the yoga pants were never going to survive
tacobellcanteen: Danica Betton and yoga pants were not meant to coexist
yungappalachian: the abs and glutes was always going to win
midwest_gothic: physics was simply not on the yoga pants’ side
gobbledygook404: “I’m tryin to have at least a FEW kids ONE day”
DontTalkToMe_Brenda: she said the yoga pants was a MEDICAL CONCERN
tacobellcanteen: a HYSTERECTOMY
yungappalachian: over yoga pants
midwest_gothic: Danica Betton’s body rejected the fitness era and the fitness era had to respect it
blessyaheart_shug: Baby you don’t need them yoga pants anyway!! 🙂
gobbledygook404: blessyaheart_shug is CORRECT
DontTalkToMe_Brenda: blessyaheart_shug stays correct
tacobellcanteen: mama said leave them pants alone
yungappalachian: mama is right
midwest_gothic: mama is always right. we have established this.
After gaining those five pounds, Danica reasoned that doing fitness videos would be a good way to lose the weight, and maybe gain some followers from that crowd.
Danica had STRONG opinions about the yoga pants.
She also said she felt a lot like a background extra in one of her mother’s Jazzercise tapes.
After her final video, a Pilates video in which her pants ripped in places she was not aware of until she uploaded it, she was done.
Them pants was ripped from the Roota to the Toota for real ya’ll! That video came down IMMEDIATELY, but I know my Day Ones still got it witchall’ stankin’ asses. And that ASMR??? …..Ya’ll I don’t even need to tell that story. Ya’ll seen them raggedy ass videos. I am too damn loud for ASMR. Point.Blank.PERIODT.
gobbledygook404: WE HAVE IT
DontTalkToMe_Brenda: IT IS PRESERVED
tacobellcanteen: in the archive
yungappalachian: the archive is sacred and locked
midwest_gothic: the Pilates video lives alongside the blessyaheart_shug screenshot and will never see daylight
gobbledygook404: we would never
DontTalkToMe_Brenda: we would absolutely never
tacobellcanteen: it is simply preserved. as evidence. as treasure.
yungappalachian: roota to the toota
midwest_gothic: roota to the toota.
gobbledygook404: the ASMR era
DontTalkToMe_Brenda: we don’t need to discuss the ASMR era
tacobellcanteen: she said Point Blank Periodt and closed the door
yungappalachian: the door is closed and we respect the door
midwest_gothic: some eras end quietly. the ASMR era ended the way it lived. loudly.
blessyaheart_shug: I thought that video was very brave Shug!! 🙂
gobbledygook404: …
DontTalkToMe_Brenda: blessyaheart_shug WATCHED THE PILATES VIDEO
tacobellcanteen: OF COURSE SHE DID
yungappalachian: she watched it BEFORE it came down
midwest_gothic: blessyaheart_shug has the original. unedited. in the folder.
But NOW let me get to where it REALLY started. This where EVERYTHING just fell into place, and I ain’t even mean it to? I just had the camera rollin’ showing off some of the cute new pieces Ms. Evelyn had brought in, and this lady yall, this one SPECIFIC lady, had to take it where it didn’t even need to get took. And I just had to let her know.
gobbledygook404: oh
DontTalkToMe_Brenda: OH
tacobellcanteen: HERE WE GO
yungappalachian: THIS IS IT
midwest_gothic: this is the one.
gobbledygook404: Day Ones we have been waiting for this
DontTalkToMe_Brenda: we have been waiting THIS WHOLE TIME
tacobellcanteen: we knew this was coming
yungappalachian: I was THERE
midwest_gothic: we were all there.
gobbledygook404: twelve viewers
DontTalkToMe_Brenda: TWELVE
tacobellcanteen: and we will never forget what we witnessed
yungappalachian: tell it Danica
midwest_gothic: tell the whole thing.
blessyaheart_shug: 🙂
gobbledygook404: blessyaheart_shug knows what’s coming
DontTalkToMe_Brenda: blessyaheart_shug was viewer number one
tacobellcanteen: blessyaheart_shug has always been viewer number one
midwest_gothic: she just didn’t have a username yet.
The next story Danica Betton would tell, would end up becoming the stuff of internet legend.
