With over 11 million followers, a lot more that goes into the hit @Fuckjerry Instagram than some guy sitting on his smartphone. As a part of Jerry Media, a company that harnesses the millennial mindset to create viral advertising and branding, @Fuckjerry is managed by not only its founder, Elliot Tebele, 26, but a team of dedicated designers, content creators, and well, millennials. We caught up with them to unmask the men and women behind the memes. via Jerry Media Name: Oren Aks (@orenjous) Job title: Graphic designer Hometown: Los Angeles, California Current neighborhood: Chinatown Age: 26 What’s your favorite thing to do in NYC and why? The Chelsea galleries. I can go anytime and get a healthy dose of world class art for free, whether it’s for half an hour or the whole day. If I don’t like a gallery, I just hop next door. And the best part? I don’t tell anybody I’m going. It’s my zen alone time. What’s the top thing people do that bothers you most? When people I care about and love dearly send me memes I’ve already seen. ¯\_(?)_/¯ If you could choose one place in the world to visit tomorrow, where would it be and why? Bangkok. It’s a perfect blend of east meets west. It’s everything I love about living in a metropolitan city with the option to detach and be in a completely different culture. Also… the food. What’s one thing you’ve always wanted to do but never had the chance to? Get brunch on the moon or take an Uber to mars for happy hour. Meet some friends on the sun for hangsies and then hop over to saturn and go for a run on its rings. Perhaps a quick dip in a black hole to feel refreshed after a long night out. via Jerry Media Name: Kathryn Chadason (@le_chadd) Job title: Graphic designer Home state: Virginia Current neighborhood: Williamsburg Age: 25 Describe how you feel when you’re hungover. I feel… Gatorade (blue flavor only). What’s the top thing people do that bothers you most? When people walk really slow in front of me and tourists that ride Citi Bikes on the sidewalk. What alcoholic beverage can you drink all night? Whiskey shot and Modelo combo. Tell me your favorite place to go out in New York. Duff’s bar in Williamsburg. It’s a divey metal bar that has $1 PBRs, cheetah lined coffins for seats, and a stool with Justin Bieber’s face on it. What does your Seamless history say about you as a person? I like to eat pasta and hot wings in bed, a lot. via Jerry Media Name: Elizabeth Alexander (@rubytwosdae) Job title: Graphic designer Hometown: Prescott, Arizona Current Neighborhood: Washington Heights Age: 22 What alcoholic beverage can you drink all night? Margaritas. Alllll day, every day. Tell me about your favorite place to go out in New York. Amsterdam Billiards, where you can get drunk and play pool until 5 a.m. What more could you want? What’s the last show you binged on Netflix? Black Mirror. That show really made me question my existence. Tell me two absurdly random things about yourself. I had purple hair once, and that’s definitely when I peaked. It’s been all downhill from there. I was also pretty intoxicated once and let a friend put his cigarette out on my wrist. #noregrets via Jerry Media Name: Chris “Bean” Thompson (@bean) Job title: Meme consultant Hometown: Chadds Ford, Pennsylvania Current neighborhood: Bushwick, Brooklyn Age: 31 What’s your favorite thing to do in NYC and why? Consume alcohol at trendy dive bars because no one gives a shit who you are or what you do. People are there to get lit and crush life with their friends.

What’s the top thing people do that bothers you most? Slow walkers. What is your favorite food and favorite New York food spot? Pizza and spaghetti. Prince Street Pizza. What alcoholic beverage can you drink all night? Modelo’s. Tell me your favorite place to go out in New York: Randolph’s. What does you Seamless history say about you as a person? That I love pizza and spaghetti. Tell me two absurdly random things about yourself. I was born without a sense of smell, and when I eat out, I never get my food on time. It’s just a part of my life now… If you could choose one place in the world to visit tomorrow, where would it be and why? Australia because they get out to live it up. I’m a beach guy that enjoys being active and loves to party. What is one thing you’ve always wanted to do but never had the chance to? Drive up the Pacific Coast Highway in an RV.
