She likes to misbehave in front of the boys
Elie, a fluffy cat with a hallway to her name, has a type. The channel's about line spells it out: she likes to flirt with cute boys with glasses. Most of her shorts are built on that crush, with titles like "No glasses? Ewww Byee" and "Meowmy hurry up my boyfriend is outside."
"She likes to misbehave in front of the boys" went up on October 5 and had passed 100,000 views about 28 hours later. A new short here usually ends its first day at around 5,000. It is not alone at the top of her recent run: "She only listens to the boy with glasses," posted two days earlier, has gone further still.
The new one strings several clips together, and the comments read like a running commentary on them. Viewers call it a compilation of Elie making sure she gets noticed, cheer when, as one puts it, Mama finally comes to the rescue, and keep using the cast names the channel itself uses: Meowmy and Boyfriend.
The detail that has people talking is the ending. Several viewers noticed that the final clip plays in reverse, and the giveaway is Elie's tail, swinging the wrong way. Subtle, one of them admits, but once you see it, you cannot unsee it.
