![Browsing the Intertubes, I decide to read the KYM article on BERKS Girl On March 26th, 2012, a post titled "BERKS Revealed" was submitted to the fadviceanimalslit ' subreddit by ussr superdude4agze, which included a picture of a young woman with the caption "Ermahgerd I'm hot"(shown let). The ollowing day, a post comparing the facial features in the two photos (shown middle) reached the front page of Reddit121, which sparked a lengthy discussion ower the authenticity of Superdude5agze's photo. On March 30th, Redditor ThazCrazy submitted a post to thes2 subreddit titled Actual BERKS Girl", which included a photo of a woman named Maggie (shown right) whom ThazCrazy claimed was the real Berks woman ERMAHGERD And see the 2 month old post fronm /user/ThazCrazy, saying he'll try to get her to do an AMA. No word from him, and he's asking for donations for a woman with cancer. A bit shady, but... I'm not going to pass any judgement yet.
