Tequila And Donuts: Deven Karpelman Proves TikTok Isn't Just For Millennials!

Anyone who said TikTok caters to millennials hasn't come across Deven Karpelman's @tequilanddonuts page. She is literally all of us regardless of your age. She says what's on her mind and takes her viewers along with her on her daily adventures shopping, gives funny tips and tricks for things you probably didn't even realize you needed a tip or trick for, and so much more. Karpelman's content is relatable in one way or another for any generation, but she's certainly got the Gen-X'ers hooked on her content.

Karpelman, 59, posted her first video to TikTok in June 2020 at the height of the pandemic. Her videos started out as simple, yet relatable to so many and focused on all the insanity the pandemic was bringing into our lives. She seemed to grab the attention of many scrolling through their FYP feed as people commented on her videos with, "I'm gonna be you when I grow up. I just know it," "you are literally the funniest person ever," "You are my whole mood! I love your content and thank you for speaking about serious issues like depression, it makes me feel not alone," among many others.

Her relatable content has helped to grow her page and pull in fans from all generations. Many of her videos revolve around shopping and malls. In one video, she talks about how to escape the kiosk salespeople in the mall.

Viewers definitely understood the assignment commenting with, "I always say 'sorry I’m allergic' regardless of what they’re selling. The less it makes sense the better bc it’ll confuse them lol," "I’m a proud member of your people," "One followed and stepped in front of me after I said no a few times.. a sassy voice I didn’t know I had came out loudly," "I love the that's not the way of my people' I am one of your people and I understand this," and "This is me in 50 years."

In another video, she shares a funny moment that happened to her when she was trying to relax on a meditative walk around what she thought was a closed elementary school. The relatable comments started to pour in.

"you are without a doubt ALWAYS able to make me laugh :p I always enjoy your vids!"

"hehehehe, if i seen you on the street humming, i’d be just a liiiiiiiittle weird, but you’re cute so i’d ignore it"

"I always get watched when I go on my walks because I look like I'm about to drop dead by the end of them."

"They probably thought you needed a straight jacket"

Karpelman is a grandma and a teacher who loves shopping, so much of her content revolves around those things. Some videos feature her husband Ralph and granddaughter Bella.

With more than 894,000 followers and new videos being uploaded daily, it's safe to say Karpelman will be entertaining the masses with more of her relatable content for a while. She also has Instagram and YouTube pages and some fun stuff in her linktree.
