Chronically Online: Leo's done it again

The best of the internet, right here, right now

FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 1 2022 It's Friday, Friday!   Celebrate the weekend (and the first inklings of fall) with a steaming hot cup of internet tea. That's right, the latest sounds, drama, roasts — everything you could need to satisfy your online cravings. Enjoy!  ✨ @lillactk Finally Twenty-Six... Leonardo DiCaprio might have a rep as an esteemed actor, but he's also known as the guy who always dumps his young girlfriends when they get too "old." His most recent sitch with a 25-year-old model/actress just ended, which meant the internet promptly roasted him *again*. Some blamed it on their brains, some compared it to the new GOT, and even more made health insurance jokes. Hopefully Leo's exes (and you) get a kick out of these sick burns. @kyleciauri Should I Start Watching A Kid's Show? It's hard to say why certain sounds go viral on TikTok, but the latest trend is creating videos to a clip from a literal kid's show. This "Bluey" sound now has over 110k videos, with most people using it to show excitement over things they maaaaybe shouldn't be so excited about. Like getting lit, situationships, or daily dog routines. New TikTok challenge: try not to get this sound stuck in your head! @starbucks The Brands Are At It Again It's rare that a brand actually *starts* a trend instead of ruining it, but it looks like Amtrak did just that by randomly (or maybe not since it was conspicuously posted at exactly 12 PM) tweeting "trains," no follow up. Other brands hopped on, like The Washington Post, CNN, and Bon Appetit. But as quickly as it went viral, it went straight to its grave. I guess I would just tweet "lukewarm takes?" @strawberrycrocs Lea, Please Don't Read This Soooo, in case you didn't know, there is a not-so-secret rumor that Lea Michele (of Glee fame) can't read. She recently addressed it in an interview, but the internet still isn't quite convinced. The subsequent memes were brutal(ly funny), like this vine reference, a "leaked" quote, and even a dog shelter's jab. Some also brought the roasting around to a more serious topic — but the rumor's out on whether Lea will read respond. @annawebbyy Listen: The album that's basically a conspiracy theory.   Watch: Marvel's newest addition is already a hit.   Drink: Something pumpkin spiced, obviously.   Do this weekend: Shoot your shot. Is there a hot, new TikTok trend coming across your FYP? See a tweet that had you laugh so loud you scared your dog? Want to argue about the next "Laurel vs. Yanny?"
