Something odd happened the other day. A bit after publishing my Troubles with Torrid<\/a>\u00a0post and sharing it to Instagram, I got a notification that Torrid had liked one of my posts.\u00a0I had a momentary “Bet that was a mistake” thought, then promptly forgot it and went about my day.<\/p>\n

Something called it to mind again the next day, so I checked to see if Torrid hand unliked my post yet.<\/p>\n

Sure enough, no sign of Torrid liking the post. However, I checked if the notification was still in my “heart” section because it would make for an interesting blog post.<\/p>\n

\"Screenshots<\/a><\/p>\n

Well, the notification was still there, but the post that Torrid liked was a vacation photo<\/a> from September 24. Whoever liked the post would have had to scroll back 37 rows to find it.<\/p>\n

It’s cool that Torrid liked one of my photos, but it’s not Torrid related, it’s not fashion related, it isn’t even plus-size or body positivity related.<\/p>\n

So, if anyone has any suggestions as to why Torrid would randomly like one of my semi-old photos on the day after I shared my post complaining about them, please let me know. I can’t come up with a plausible reason.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

Can someone explain potential reasoning behind this strange happening?<\/p>\n
