LEAVE ME ALONE: Local influencer Bridget Jameson, who boasts a whopping 1.2M followers has addressed recent online trolling by crediting her high school Formspring years for giving her the thick skin required to survive in the influencer economy.

“Guys, I been doing this since 2010, you think your comments get through to me? I had a Fromspring!” she declared to her TikTok community.

Formspirng, the popular social platform throughout the 2010s was famous for it’s Q&A’s, where teenagers asked each other anonymous questions that quickly devolved into a blood sport of online bullying.

“I remember it like it was just yesterday, someone ‘asked me’, well it was more of a statement, saying I had a flat ass and zero tits”

“No honestly guys, It was the wild west” Bridget continued. “I made a profile and within a week I had 200 submissions calling me flat chested bitch.”

Back then, Bridget was not emotionally prepared for the onslaught of vile and hatful comments spanning from her looks, down to the way she posed in photos. Today, however, a different story.

While traumatic at the time, Bridget now says it was “the perfect exposure therapy” for the endless stream of anonymous abuse that comes with being a creator.

“Honestly, Formspring gave me the resilience I needed to make it in the cut throat world of being an influencer”

“It really gave me the foundation and tick skin I needed to handle all the haters”

“K love you bye ✌️”

More to come.
