Reddit users post selfies inviting strangers to INSULT them in bizarre new 'RoastMe' thread
And it wasn't just women that were subject to the abuse, as one man uploaded an image, accompanied by the caption: 'My wife wants you to roast me.' One Reddit user instantly hit back with: 'Your wife is probably heavier than the band on your T-shirt.' Another joked: 'I always wondered what would happen to [musician] Moby when the money ran out.'
當(dāng)然,遭受這種“虐待”的并非只有女性,一位男用戶(hù)就上傳了他的照片,附言:“我妻子想要你們來(lái)‘挖苦’我?!币晃患t迪網(wǎng)網(wǎng)友立馬就給他回?fù)舻溃?“你妻子可能比你T恤上的重金屬樂(lè)隊(duì)還要重?!绷硪晃淮蛉さ溃?“我一直在想,如果(音樂(lè)人)莫比花光了錢(qián)會(huì)是怎樣一番景象。(大概就是這樣被老婆推出來(lái)讓大家挖苦)”
A young woman wearing a turquoise beanie, took a photo with her phone in full view of the camera. Instantly insults poured in, as users piled in on the size of her hands, even though the foreshortening effect was created by their proximity to the reflection in the mirror. One user offered: 'E.T. called. He wants his hands back.' Another added: 'your arms, damn. you must have to steer from the backseat.'
一位戴著青綠色小帽的年輕女孩用手機(jī)拍了一張照片,照片中還能看到手機(jī)。不出片刻,各種諷刺如潮水般涌來(lái),很多用戶(hù)都將重點(diǎn)放在她的大手上,雖然是因?yàn)榭跨R子太近,透視現(xiàn)象導(dǎo)致她的手看起來(lái)比較大。但一位用戶(hù)說(shuō)道: “E.T.(科幻電影中的外星人)打電話(huà)來(lái)了,說(shuō)要你把他的手還給他?!绷硪晃谎a(bǔ)刀說(shuō): “你的手臂,天哪,你開(kāi)車(chē)的時(shí)候肯定是坐在車(chē)后座上?!?/p>
Despite the cynical nature of the phenomenon, RoastMe is gaining traction, and earlier this week hit 60,000 subscribers who are taking part in the craze.
拋開(kāi)這種現(xiàn)象冷嘲熱諷的性質(zhì)不說(shuō), “求侮辱”的人氣可是水漲船高,本周早些時(shí)候,已有6萬(wàn)名網(wǎng)友加入到這一熱潮。
