Same. I was late for work (but gave warning ahead of. time lol), but got them as traders. Looking forward to seeing next week's designs!

I honestly don't know who sounds more ridiculous - the social media account 40+ year old "bestie" who writes those utterly inane and infantilizing posts trying to sound like they're 12 years old or the people hoping to gain favor who respond "bestie" to the account. :rolleyes:

Yeah, I'm getting old. :p

That said, I hope I can get the Dinah. :)

I thought I was the only one that was thinking that. 😆 Strangely unprofessional sounding to me.

You sum it up well. These little DSSH write ups are cringy. I speed my way through the 'bestie' part and look for the substance.

The difference in tone on this one is a small improvement but clearly nobody vets the content on this account:

Tis’ the season for giving so I’m giving you the gift of a new Pin Trader’s Delight! Head to the store now to purchase.​

At least thematically appropriate and doesn't use the word "bestie" - though still condescending and too informal. Also, it is stated in writing in the first sentence that it is a GIFT, so I hope Legal approved that language. lol

WHY does Disney Corporate allow this social media account to be written SO INCREDIBLY POORLY?! Do they not realize how massively off-putting it sounds when a middle-aged person tries to sound like a child and addresses their paying customers as such? UGH. The "bestie" garbage needs to be immediately retired and an actual marketing person needs to take over that account.

In the spirit of the season, they are giving everyone the opportunity to purchase a gift. 🧑‍🎄 😆
