STOP THIS IS SO FUNNY ya’ll byler bloggers will love this... so me and my cousin were talking about how Noah Schnapp iconically came out via TikTok while playing a canonically gay character, and our other cousin's bf (who has never watched an episode of Stranger Things) was like "Oh cool that’s the guy from the snapping meme right? The dude that walks up, snaps, and the screen changes?" We were both like "No thats Finn Wolfhard this is a different guy" AND WITHOUT HESITATION he says "Oh thats cool I didn’t know there were two gay characters on the show" HE THOUGHT MIKE WAS THE GAY CHARACTER.. The fact that he’s never even watched the show either and had Mike clocked as the canonically gay character without question is absolutely hysterical- At most he’s seen maybe a couple edits on TikTok
LMAO it's like that guy on Reddit who never saw ST but had seen edits and got asked about his fave ship and he mentioned Byler. In terms of social media, it's more popular so it makes sense, also Finn Wolfhard's reputation for playing gay characters who love their besties precedes him.
