**TRENDING: Gen Z Declares War on "Summer House" — Only to Realize It's a Show, Not a Housing Market Solution**
LISBON, CT — In a baffling turn of events, #SummerHouse is currently trending as thousands of disillusioned young renters flooded TikTok demanding a "nationwide boycott of summer houses," believing the real estate trend was the sole reason they couldn't afford an apartment. The confusion erupted after a viral video of a woman sobbing over a $4,000/month studio was captioned, "It's all because of the summer houses."
The irony? "Summer House" is a Bravo reality series about wealthy twenty-somethings getting drunk and fighting over pool floats in the Hamptons. The boycott hashtag is now being hijacked by fans of the show flooding the comment sections of angry Zillow posts with gifs of cast member Lindsay Hubbard screaming, "I'M NOT TRYING TO BUY A HOUSE, I'M TRYING TO GO TO A PARTY."
Meme historians are calling this the most "Peak Late-Stage Internet" moment of the year, noting that the same generation that can recognize a 2014 Vine audio from a single frame cannot, apparently, identify a reality TV show that has been running since 2017.
The stock of actual summer cottages in upstate New York remains unaffected, though realtors are reportedly confused as to why they keep getting calls asking if their properties "come with a Kyle and a hot tub explosion."
