Somebody Cringe That Gu cring. I've said this before and now it's time to dust it off and say it again. And I Don't care whose feelings get hurt by this. just like a suppository I Don't care if your ass gets sore, it's time to hit you with the truth.

It is extremely embarrassing when somebody makes one thing their entire personality. whether that's being a fan of a show, being a fan of a band, or expanding Beyond it. If you have like a stick that becomes a meme making that Meme your entire brand and your entire life I find that to be cringe and the internet is of course a portal to cringe. So let's show you who I believe to be the most sad specimen when it comes to this phenomenon.

Salt Bay Salt Bay is a restaurant owner who Rose to fame because he sprinkles salt down his arm like this while wearing goofy sunglasses. He looks like a time traveler from a steam punk dystopia. He took off as a meme and kind of a joke online, but then that Meme got made into into real flesh. He adopted that as part of his soul and it has now become his entire identity.

He translated all of that online buzz into real world success. So his restaurants are actually quite popular and they're known for extremely overpriced food. Most notably this: Abomination this is a steak wrapped in edible gold and I think it looks truly awful that looks like a poorly wrapped Christmas present. But what's even worse here is salt by himself.

the Santa Claus of meat he comes to the table when you order something like this and puts on a little song and dance. So he cuts up the gold steak and then he hits it with his signature anime finishing move where he sprinkles the salt down his arm and then he grabs a piece of the steak on a knife and then dangles it over any woman at the table's face. He just like dangles the meat over there like he's at like a petting zoo or something. and then the the women are expected to like lift up and then bite the meat off of his knife.

It's pretty embarrassing to watch like I could only imagine going there and seeing your girlfriend do that. you'd be like damn this is expensive and I feel like I'm getting cucked even though all everyone's clothes are still on. it's it's just I think it's goofy very Sil but overall it's harmless cringe. But as is so often the case with these memers turned celebrities, he flew too close to the Sun I think Sck was never entertaining I never really saw the comedy stylings of sprinkling salt down his arm to be gut busting or anything, but it did.

It's not like it bothered me either that he got popular from it, but he became way too pretentious with it into the point where he felt entitled to be on the field during the World Cup when Argentina won. So he went onto the field after Argentina won, the World Cup entire Trophy ceremony and everything. It was always pretentious since the first video I'm I'm going to keep it a book I'm not even that mad that he's pretentious because he was consistently pretentious though all the way through right? So you can't say that he change because of fame or whatever. He just always always like that.

So if you go get get mad at from the beginning to the end or they about him. if you go to his Instagram pictures of him holding the World Cup you'd think he was part of the team that won it even though he had nothing to do with it. and then he also has that picture in the bottom right that looks like he actually fished a piece of poop out of a toilet at one of his restaurants and was playing with it. So he was rightfully getting Dunked On by everyone on the internet for this.

and I just want to show you some of his worst moments here because man it is so bad. By far the worst one is him trying to get mess's attention so you can see him kind of like harassing him and yanking on him to try and get Messi to acknowledge Him Kind of like a toddler trying to get his dad's attention but Messi's having no part of it, he's just he's actually celebrating with the people that matter to him and his team, his family. He doesn't give a about Salt Bay pestering him for like a photo for his Instagram it's so embarrassing to look at now apparently and Messi have met before. he wasn't like a complete stranger but Messi just ate at one of his restaurants in Salt B fed him a piece of food like it's not like they were inseparable friends or something.

and the the ga to go out on the field after the World Cup win and act like you're somehow best buddies with everyone on the team is so laughable and pathetic. It was so bad in fact that now FIFA is investigating how he even got on the field in the first place because they're not entirely sure. The leading theory is that he was able to get on the field because he's somewhat friends with the FIFA commissioner like the head of the FIFA org. So that's the leading theory, but even that's not 100% certain from what I've read.

But yeah, let's take a peek at some of those videos he filmed because man, they're Classics It just like taking a trophy from a baby. So Salt Bay continues to like Yank on the trophy until finally the player just relinquishes control to it and Salt Bay hoists it up as if he's somehow responsible for it. He also shakes his finger no to the baby, letting him know that it's his turn. It's his trop.

Deserved it. He put nutrients in that team's body one time four years ago, so he's just as much a part of the crew as anyone else there. He has every right to this trophy. The delusion is remarkable.

It should almost be studied. And of course, you can't go for a single video without hitting him with that salt sprinkle. Because man, that's so good. it's It's so iconic.

Man: can't get enough of that one man. That guy's face Really? T So annoying. Holy Bro Imagine you practice for four years or some Bro all your efforts, you win. This dumb is in the net.

man. that guy's this dumbass mother sucker yanking on your really tells the whole story. that discomfort making a smile. but his eyes are just beyond annoyed.

wondering who is this guy and why is he squeezing on my hand and trying to grab the trophy from me? This one's a real quick one. hitting him with a wound and spanking the trophy, giving a little slap on the keer there and you can see yet another player very uncomfortable with salt Bay's present. He's just this like myma of uncomfortableness. He swoops in like this absolute plague of awkwardness.

He shouldn't be there and everyone knows it. and he is there ruining the moment. It's so weird. Oh, here's a great one for the Scrapbook yeah biting on his metal there I'm sure he really liked that the guy that he is not friends with doesn't even really know coming out of nowhere for a photo op and then surprising biting on the metal though.

I guess in salt Bay's defense, the metal does look a bit like a a waffle, so maybe he got a little confused. Maybe he was hungry. There were a couple more sightings of Salt Bay out there making a fool out of himself, but I think these are by far the worst, so there's no reason to keep dunking your head in here into the cringe. I Just wanted to make it uh, very clear that this is some absolute clown.

Behavior I Never think it's a good idea to try and make one thing your entire identity. whether it's a meme, whether it's you just being a fan of something I Always think that that's always is just going to be a path to cringe. Just imagine getting a huge ego because you sprinkle salt down your arm on over. This isn't the only case of this happening though, by the way.

and I've talked about one other before that I'll briefly mention here since it's related. You might remember during E3 a couple years ago when Keana Kiana Reeves made a surprise appearance, there was that your breathtaking moment that you know captured the world and tugged on everyone's heartstrings. Well, the audience member who shouted out know your breathtaking which became a huge you know Online deal. the guy who sh shouted that tried to make an entire career just off of that one line, that one moment trying to capture that lightning in a bottle over and over again he became a YouTuber and streamer who tagged everything with #y your Breathtaking or # Breathtaking and called himself the Breathtaking Guy I think I I actually can't I can't quite be certain if he called himself the Breathtaking Guy I don't really remember exactly what he gave himself but I do remember everything he did.

He did it with the your Breathtaking as the Forefront that was his whole brand and that was his whole online Tri that's just didn't really work. It kind of worked in the beginning because it was still like a wholesome moment and it didn't seem like he was trying to clout Chase off of just that one thing. but then it lasted for over a year like I I still kept up with him like a year later to see if he was still doing it if he' finally like graduated from that and started to maybe pivot into a different kind of stick or even no stick at all and just being a streamer or YouTuber but he never did in the entire time I was checking in on him. it was always going by the your Breathtaking moment to try and make that his thing and it just it didn't pan out super well.

Last I saw he Was streaming to about like 10 viewers at the time and I just felt really bad for him because this is one of those moments where you have this huge blow up almost overnight because of one thing that you did that everyone loved. So you want to keep doing that because everyone loved it. but then you wear it out, it overstays, it's welcome, and then eventually you end up in a position like salt Bay where it's just kind of washed up it's course and now you just look silly for continuing to embrace it and continuing to try and sell that. So I just BR the has like two rules.

Okay H how do you even donate? You know the rules of chat. You don't even type in chat ever. You type in chat one time and you get banned and you donate. Dude I didn't mean to be negative there like one rule.

just wanted to bring this up because I think Salt Bay is a bit of a loser especially. For This World Cup that's about it. See you chill little bro. You are known as the Goan guy.

Sit down and chill. Wait what? yo? this is X x on the video Okay, my voice as well that is anyone knows that boy I don't know, he's just so s anyone knows that boy I don't know he's just so sorry.
