《I Really Am An Internet Celebrity!》Chapter 3: ‘Researching’
Advertisement
Vermillion woke up, still thinking about the cat pictures he saw last night. “I believe that can help me be popular on Twitter for a while, everybody seems to be doing memes!” he said as his stomach grumbled. “Sigh, after eating.” he remarked. “I really should keep track of my eating times and times online. This is messing my schedule up but in the end, it’ll be worth it. I’ll be popular!” he said while preparing breakfast.
After he finished eating breakfast, he went up stairs to the bathroom and did his daily lumberjack, brushed his teeth and showered. After being done with all that, he went into his room and turned on his computer to know more about ‘memes’ and such. His curiosity was off the charts and was completely on his mind ever since he found out about it. While researching, he found a website called ‘Know Your Meme’, he found out that there were other memes that wasn’t just cat pictures and was amused by them. He was fascinated by the existence of memes and wanted to use them. Despite researching for about an hour, he still doesn’t know how to use them correctly but he tried anyways. He went on Twitter and uploaded a picture of the meme with a picture of a green frog on a unicycle with a really obnoxious caption which seemed unamusing but he did it anyways because it seemed it was really popular back in the days, what he didn’t know was people would make fun of him for using old ‘memes’ but Vermillion didn’t know that.
After patiently waiting, he got a notification. In fact
@WeEbloLewd101: Yo this is a really old and DEAD meme bruh, you need to step it up, you are kind of new to memes, maybe i will teach you a thing or 2.
While this made Vermillion a bit sad, he accepted his request and replied:
@Vermilllion: sure, teach me.
But the Twitter user didn’t reply back which made Vermillion confused but he just shrugged it as he thought that he was busy, after all, no one is shut in his house like him, everyone else working or studying at school building a future for themselves while he was here, rotting in his house; This fact made him think a bit of the past but he quickly shook his head trying to get those thoughts and memories out of his mind. A gloomy expression was on Vermillion’s face but it was replaced with a sad smile which was clearly forced “I need to forget about all those memories if I want to be truly..popular..” That word wasn’t what he was looking for as he wanted to say another word but he knew the meaning of the other word he wanted to say will never be true and never be granted any time soon,

He should get a better understanding of them and maybe use ‘memes’ to get a little bit of popularity, every bit of fame counts, after he researched for about an hour he was determined to make a meme but he doesn’t know how obviously, he didn’t create one right of the bat because he’s jokes aren’t nearly good enough for them to be used in this kind of place, he learnt that the internet has some jokes that are really funny and creative which he would never think of in a million years, he always thought of himself as the ‘jokester’ but comparing his jokes to these of the internet is like comparing the size of earth and the size of the universe.
After an hour of posting ‘memes’, he stopped and clicked on his notification box and refreshed it wildly but after refreshing it countless times nothing new appeared which made him a little bit sad but he never lost hope. “Maybe he’s sleeping, yeah, probably he’s in another timezone or something!” he said. He always thought optimistically but he knew that thinking optimistically wasn’t the answer all the time, he naively thought that, he also thought that maybe this Twitter user is mad at him but that wasn’t logical, he thought “I mean, those are just ‘memes’ that are harmless!”.
After that Vermillion went downstairs as his stomach was begging him to eat food and please it, he prepared some leftover chicken he ate about a week ago that he forgot about, he checked if it was edible and surprisingly it was, he opened his microwave and put the leftover chicken in there while turning the gauge to 75° Celsius and pressed the starting button.
After that he went upstairs again while thinking about some non-important thoughts, he sat on his chair again and looked at the monitor to see a ‘4’ on the bell looking box which really made Vermillion happy as he thought he is getting a little bit of attention, he clicked on the bell box really quickly and looking really intensely at the computer monitor like he was a kid on Christmas opening a new present. But after looking at the notifications, he quickly got a little sad at what he saw.

@Cantt0uchmySwag: Yo dude these posts are wack, it’s ironic, seen em a MILLION times already, you are really unoriginal! Haha.
@Cantt0uchmySwag Followed you
@Cantt0uchmySwag Liked your tweet
@Cantt0uchmySwag Retweeted your tweet
Vermillion got really angry at this twitter user but he gained a follower and he got a like and a retweet which kind of eased the anger but he was still angry at him nonetheless! “This stupid BITCH questioning my originality?! Heh, he doesn’t know that I am quite well-known in the comedy scene..but that was when I was actually good at it..wait why am I arguing with him in the first place! Grr..!”. Vermillion replied angrily!
@Vermilllion: Is that so? Well I need to tell you that i am quite well-known in the comedy scene and want to see you try better! Oh wait.You can’t! Haha!
After Vermillion replied with that, he waited to see the response of that twitter user but all he got was a like on the reply he made but that twitter user never replied back,
Vermillion naively thought that he won this argument but in the back of his head he knew clearly that he didn’t win anything and that twitter user was just not interested in replying to him, but he just declared his victory to make him feel better, this made him feel even more empty but who cares! A win is still a win..right?.
After celebrating his little victory, he checked his timeline to see some tweets that might interest him but all he got was the same tweets from different twitter users which made him a bit annoyed which is ironic since he is doing the same thing but he said “I made himself an exception as I was doing it for a reason unlike these uncultured swines!”.
He heard a beeping sound from downstairs and he rushed to take out the leftover chicken that was in the microwave, he forgot about it for a second as he was celebrating his little victory, he quickly opened the microwave and tried to bring out the dish but it was really hot so he retrieved a cloth and then he pulled the dish out from the microwave before closing the microwave door, he also got some bread because he likes to eat chicken with bread and quickly got upstairs, he never got fat which made him really lucky because he only sits in his house all day while eating food, but he shouldn’t push his luck too far and think naively like that, maybe he will wake up one day weighing more than 170 pounds? He shuddered at the thought of it, luckily that was not going to happen, at least he hopes.
After sitting on his chair again and looking at the monitor, he checks his notifications to see it’s empty which still made him a bit sad but he knew that patience is needed. He said “They say ‘Rome wasn’t build in a day’ indicating I will get as big as Rome which is retarded” he laughed at himself. “Hey that’s a good joke!” he said, “Maybe I should create a meme out of that!” But before he could learn about creating ‘memes’ he got a notification which as usual Vermillion clicked on it as fast as lightning to see it's the Twitter user he’d been waiting for:
