You read one thirst tweet and the internet comes completely unhinged.

Pedro Pascal became all too familiar after a moment with Entertainment Tonight went viral.

Pascal, who has been dubbed the "internet's daddy," read a tweet from a fan referring to him as "my cool, slutty father," to which Pascal awkwardly acknowledged:

"Yep, I am your cool slutty daddy."

Everyone wants in on this action now, but The Last of Us star recently refused to read some "dirty" tweets from fans.

While at a Mandalorian season 3 event, the actor was approached by an Access Hollywood reporter who wanted him to read some thirst tweets from fans.

The interviewer revealed:

"I would love if you could read a few thirst tweets that the internet has for you."
"You can read them to camera."

Pascal took off his glasses and glanced over the tweets before laughing and ultimately declining, even after the interviewer asked him to just "pick your favorite."

He politely refused:

"No."
"Dirty!"

You can watch the moment below.

While the interviewer was likely disappointed, Pascal's fans rushed to defend him, several noting that while it may be entertaining for viewers and thirst tweeters, it's ultimately uncomfortable and a violation of personal boundaries.









Aside from the inappropriate nature of the request itself, several also pointed out that it was neither the time nor place for such an ask.



A few even noted that yes, many celebrities participate in segments in which they read thirst tweets on camera—BuzzFeed's Celebs Read Thirst Tweets, for example—but those engaging gave their consent and agreed beforehand.

Pascal, on the other hand, did not.

You can catch Pascal in his daddy roles on Wednesdays in the new season of The Mandalorian on Disney+ and Sundays in The Last of Us on HBO.

People Share Purchases Under $20 That Made Their Lives Way Easier

Sometimes, in an effort to improve our lives in some capacity requires us to make a significant dent in our bank account.

Even though it might be yogurt for dinner for a few weeks after, we still feel good about our expensive purchases when we see the difference a high-powered washing machine makes, or feel the cool air from our upgraded air conditioner.

Man Goes Viral After 3D-Printing A 6-Pound Phone Case To Combat Screen Addiction

Many Millennials will remember back in the nineties as the last of the "latchkey kids" who were prominently babysat by their televisions, and the commercials that rolled out, made popular on Nickelodeon and Cartoon Network, promoting kids to go play outside instead of watching TV all day.

Now in 2025, videos on Instagram and TikTok encouraging people to "pause their scroll" and to "put down their phones" are becoming more common and popular, because people are realizing how detrimental our increasing screen time is to our emotional, physical, and psychological health.

Woman Sparks Heated Debate After Encouraging People To Smile At Walmart Greeters

There's an old saying that goes, "It costs nothing to be kind."

Smiling at a stranger, saying hi back to a young and socialable child, holding a door for someone, and maybe even exchanging a pleasantry or two at the checkout line costs nothing more than a few words passing our lips and showing a little kindness.
