I am so sick of needing to login here. It is factually shit. Here, I fucking vibed you a whole fucking infographic site explaining why you are dumb:". Below this is an embedded link preview with the title "How would you like to be told you're being a lazy cunt today?". It shows two buttons: "Just The Facts, You Cunt" and "A Toybox for Nerds". Below the buttons, more text reads: "Are you a little bitch who is mad I called you a cunt on this page? Do you want to forward this to your boss regarding your brand presence, but you don't wanna have to talk to god damned HR because of it? Ok fine, here's a tame version that can be exported & emailed, you dweebs." A banner at the bottom of the preview says "Gemini - Leave x.com already, you lazy fucking cunt." with options to "Report unsafe content" and a "Try Can" button.
