Twitter Shakes Its Head At Doomer Fanfiction Using AI-generated Hipster Version Of Elaine From 'Seinfeld'

Twitter Shakes Its Head At Doomer Fanfiction Using AI-generated Hipster Version Of Elaine From 'Seinfeld'

It's not uncommon to scroll the dregs of social media and find a post where a person will imagine a woman, either real or fictional, and write a little story about said woman.

Sometimes this takes the form of a prompt, such as in the "How Do You Open?" meme, or it could be an attempt to paint a specific scenario, such as in the It's 2028 copypasta.

Yesterday, Twitter was treated to a bold new innovation in the genre when the account @uncledoomer posted a brief short story about a woman who could have made you, the reader, the happiest man in the world if only you hadn't blown it. That woman is an AI-generated image of Elaine Benes (Julia Louis-Dreyfus) from Seinfeld imagined as a hipster.

Uncle Doomer's tweet

The image comes from TikToker mc.baldiee, who two days ago posted a TikTok showing off AI-generated imaginings of the cast of Seinfeld as what Brooklyn hipsters might have looked like in the Stomp Clap Hey era of 15 years ago (think George with a handlebar mustache and Jerry with a beanie and a long beard).

However, the image of Elaine holding a PBR (or more accurately, a "P̸͍̕a̶͚͕̋̈́b̸̳̥͎͗s̶̡̩̅͠t̸̞̯̭͒͘ ̵̹̫̙͑B̶̙̱̎͜l̶̡̜̠̂͋ủ̶̪̜͆́ͅè̸̡̗͛̈ ̶̦̂̀͝Ř̶̬̙͝i̸͚̖̒̉͘b̴̟̆̓̇b̶̨̫̆͜o̸̧̥̳͒n̴͍͊͛"), seemed to hit close to home with Uncle Doomer, who wrote a heartbreaking short story about how this woman ruined the life of you, the reader.

"You date her right after moving to brooklyn," he wrote in the tweet. "She has an art degree and mild bpd. Works as a barista. You go to bookstores and punk shows with her. Confess your love after IPAs and some blow. Then its over. You could have married her. Had a life with her. But you chose darkness."

For many, this seemed like an exceedingly dramatic response to what is essentially a "What if Seinfeld, but hipster?" meme that has been an internet trend for years.

In fact, many compared it to the ancient Hipster Ariel meme from 2011.

lonely man ai elaine ai elaine you hate to see it Hipster Ariel

Thankfully, AI-hipster Elaine is not real and she can't hurt you. Nevertheless, it is fascinating, if not a bit alarming, to see how social media has reimagined "photoshopping pop culture characters as hipsters" in the artificial intelligence age.
