I don't know, I've seen that style on Facebook ads a lot and I'm kind of numb by now to the style of "oh, look, this was hastily scrawled together, isn't that so edgy and real?"

Personally I'm completely numb to the "every word in a different font and some random ones on banners" style that was so inescapable in the 2010s, that it ended up on those horrible t-shirts for, like, Deranged Girlfriends Who Are Proud Gun Nuts

  wait you don't realize thats a meme? there is a bot that poorly creates phrases for targeted subcultures and digitally affixes them onto T-shirt designs and makes targeted ads for them. per usual with T-shirt sites, when people purchase, the design is created on a real t-shirt at that point in time. there is a whole subreddit about the results.

    It was a pre-existing broad advertising trend that reached perfection in that meme.

    My favorite healthcare "cringe shirt" is this one: https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0928/7420/products/t-shirt-patient-s-last-comfort-14_large.jpeg?v=1493390337 https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0928/7420/products/t-shirt... I am humble, so humble! My humility is even written on my shirt! Also, there are some badass mock angel wings drawn on my back, in case you had been forgotten of my magnanimity.

      For some reason I am really impressed that this shirt correctly spelled "their" every single time it was used.

Agreed. Along with the LinkedIn messages with my name or my companies name on some piece of paper some random person is holding at whatever company bought a list with me on it.
