I'd never heard of Universal in Orlando before her post. She has made me want to go there now.

If this Elle Darby wan's goal is to get any exposure, either positive or negative, then she's done quite well here. As she is a 'social media influencer' I'm assuming that is very much her aim here.
 
The White Moose Café are fairly well known for their social media interaction so she would almost certainly have been aware she was going to get a response of that nature. Now she's got her name on a few different outlets (Daily Edge, Lovin' Dublin etc) so will almost certainly add to her 80k followers.

I'm still trying to figure out her claim of helping people in so many ways?

I understand what these people think they do, but it's a long way from being a philanthropic endeavour. People have been writing reviews for years. It's social journalism. This "social influencer" is a response to the explosion of column inches afforded by the internet. It reminds me of the way South Park dealt with YELP reviewers.

I’m open to correction here but in print media was there not a standard that all those filling column inches must have the accreditation to do so? Can’t open a paper these days without seeing pages of “influencers” talking shiiiiiiite’

It's amazing that these people seem to have influence. They are all the same f**king person as well with that horrible f**king editing in their videos. Why can't you finish one sentence from one shot? It's dreadful. Christ almighty

I see one of the guests on the Late Late Show on Friday was a "snapchatter" Confused

Jesus f**king monkeyball christ

You have to be a serious moron to take advice from this level of ****

If I wanted to die a slow death for my past sins then I would be stuck in a lift with that irritating wannabe listening to her whine on and on and on and on and on.........

I could agree with you but then we'd both be wrong.

My missus was telling me there recently about these "influencers". Some scandal where they were promoting products, skin care or lipstick stuff about how great the products were but failing to tell any of their thousands of followers that they'd actually just had cosmetic surgery done and this was in fact why the products looked so great, not because they actually were any use.
 
While it might not seem like a big deal to us normal folk, it does work on a whole generation of young kids who are easily led by these gobsh*tes.

Yep! The new generation watching 'Friends' for the first time on netflix want it pulled: http://www.dailyedge.ie/friends-2-3799633-Jan2018/

 

The sad thing is that it is probably true that if Friends was being made now, you would have that social diversity as part of the main cast and a lot of the jokes probably wouldn't have made it.

 

Star Wars VI/VII the perfect example of movies which were made in a way so not to piss off any of the snowflake generation, at the detriment to the story, in my opinion.
