Vlogmas 2013

Would have been nice for her to wish everyone a happy new year considering we are the ones helping fund her life. Very selfish.

Oh no she can't do that 'cause she is hungover #stillinbed All her tweets about being hungover and drinking rub me the wrong way somehow. I feel like she's actually proud of it? idk.

[al218]

Seriously. Nice role model to the tweens she's selling too. Grow up Elle.

[PHAIL]

It's a very 15 year old thing to do, which is no surprise considering she's still a child. In high school everyone was always bragging about smoking pot or drinking like it's the coolest thing ever and I find there are still some adults like herself who are always talking about it and actually think they're cool. So embarrassing. I don't care if someone does drugs or drinks, but just do it? You're literally not special for doing it lmao. Just like everyone here thought it was so cute how in that one Vlogmas video where she was getting trashed with her mom and kept going on and on about the wine. "So relatable!!!1" I thought it was embarrassing as fuck.

YES. Every time she drinks she makes a big deal out of it, like she's experiencing it for the first time or something.

Her attitude is so weird. Anytime she talks about alcohol or boys/dating, she sounds like a 15 year old, and the rest of the time she acts like a 6 year old. I seriously don't know what her problem is.

I think it's cause she doesn't go out often and wants people to think she has more of a life than she does. I totally agree with whoever said she isn't private, she just doesn't have a huge social life.

i was also wondering that she didnt tweet happy new year. im happy to know im NOT alone

[al218]

she probably didn't tweet to make it look like she had other "important" things to do.

[Guest]

Maybe she doesn't see the point in wishing anyone a happy new year. Some people just don't care (me being one of them; I haven't said "happy new year" once and I don't intend to).

Having said that, chances are her subscribers have been saying it to her, and if so, it would be polite of her to say it back.

This! I can't handle people who aren't mature about those kinds of things. It doesn't make you seem cool when you come off as trying to shape your image by doing it.. If you don't drink often then that is fine, but don't make it seem like you're some huge drinker and are so ~used to that life. Obviously you're not if you have to tweet about it/ramble about it in videos every time you do it.

Maybe her attitude about alcohol and boys stems from her sorority days. (Not knocking Greek life... I was Greek too.) She seems to hang out with people younger than her (like Ingrid) who are still in that mindset of "getting wasted is AWESOME." If she'd graduated college and gotten a professional job or gone to post-graduate study, she would probably have outgrown this mindset.

[lovesabliss]

I still can't get over that post she did on her blog about replacing her diet coke obsession with alcohol

[Silver Rose 39]

^^^ Well that's hardly any better. Instead of being obese (Diet drinks can cause weight gain) she'll have liver failure.

AHAHA I commented on here once saying that it sounded an awful lot like she could develop an addiction and people went off on me. So... apparently a touchy subject, I don't think it's a good idea to bring that up again

oh really! Well I don't know about addiction but i'm just shocked at her logic behind that post...it seems a bit misguided.

[kathpt]

My point exactly!!!!
I made sure I wrote that there is a big difference between the words 'wanting' and 'needing' when it comes to addiction but everyone chose to not understand it or not agree or whatever. Let Elle drink her wine and chug down her coffee, see how it gets her in the future lol

Holding a professional career & graduating college doesn't really equal responsible mature adult. Ingrid didn't complete her academic plans either & she's younger than Elle and doesn't talk about drinking hardly ever (except that totally random video w Sawyer) so it can't be that.

I don't think it's like "drinking is cool, high five everyone who parties", it's more like "haha being a grownup is an illusion, I can't believe alcohol is legal & we're allowed to do this". Why is everyone so rigid about drinking around here? It's not a big deal & booze lowers your inhibitions so tweeting about being buzzed or having a hangover makes sense. Most of the time ppl are trying to hide their vulnerabilities. That's why we like drinking, to let the guard down a little, idk...

*for the record, I'm talking like 2 glasses or wine or a few beers, not half a bottle of Smirnoff.

There's nothing wrong with drinking. It's just profoundly annoying/pathetic that she feels the need to go on and on about, like in the wine video, and in tweets. Almost everyone here sees that she gives off the vibe that she thinks drinking makes her cool. I think you're the only one who doesn't get that from her haha.

[Evolve]

I think people here blow it a little out of proportion. Like if Elle's tweet were on my Facebook newsfeed that day it would've fit in perfectly with everyone else I'm friends with (who are all around Elle's age or older). No one went on and on about how much they drank, but lots of people had little one liners about being hungover or too much champagne, etc.

This assumption doesn't sit well with me. First of all, Ingrid has never expressed the same mentality toward alcohol like Elle has. If anything, Ingrid has been much more mature toward alcohol than Elle. I know people who have graduated college and work full time or are in grad school and work and they are just as immature about alcohol as Elle. I, on the other hand, have never gone through the same mentality as Elle about alcohol. Maybe when I was 15 but I don't remember. I know people who are still in school who approach alcohol maturely and don't gloat about being hungover and what type of alcohol they drink or the quantity. It all depends on the person. But I know too many older people who still get wasted every night.

Elle treats alcohol like she treats everything else in life; it's this novel concept and it's special. Her stupid hot water bottle that she thinks is a European concept except it's been in the United States for a while. Her deaf cat that she treats like he's the king of her universe. She just thinks she's special for drinking so much. She treats it with this fascination that doesn't match up to how years she's been exposed to it. It doesn't really make sense. But then again, Elle lives in her own deluded bubble where she uses social media to attract attention to herself from 10 year olds. It just make she feel better when young girls praise her for no reason.

Bottom line, Elle is just a big adult-child that has been spoiled her entire life who is seeking attention from tween girls on the internet.
