    I think organic memes like this are better than ones designed specifically to be memes. That being said, yea, it’s really not super funny/interesting/unique of a meme.

      I think it’s only a meme because the girl is attractive and has a southern accent. Take those 2 away and no one would give a shit. I think mostly the girl being attractive is driving the spread.

      Knowyourmeme puts it well:

      “…leading to memes, fancam edits and humorous romanticization from male internet users who found themselves attracted to her.”

        and has a southern accent

        She does? I just watched it for the first time, and she didn’t seem to. She was putting on an affectation because she was making a joke

          Well she either has a southern accent or she pretended to have one. But it definitely added to the “charm.” I’d argue perhaps this video wouldn’t be very popular if it wasn’t a southern accent and a pretty lady.
