There are more than 700,000 hairdressers in the United States, more than 90% of whom are estimated to be women. by MistWeaver80
Ethylmethacrylate (glue for acrylic nails) is the main culprit. That stuff reeks as well. I have personally experienced building up a tolerance to a smell but it's so pungent that you should always detect some amount of it.

That's because Twitter is specifically being sought out by those people. The "shout into the void" style really seems to work for politicians and journalists.

- Homophobic. It was dumb, unnecessary and offensive but not nearly as bad as people treated it. It really was just an angry young adult rambling on stream.
- OWL was super uptight trying to be as "professional" as possible back then. These days, it's much more relaxed. A lot of casters will say "nice" if the number 69 appears on screen and meme on production issues while the players get small monetary fines if they swear on broadcast. One of the main memes of OWL is "sex big dick" having been written in match chat.
