The image is a girl drinking beer. According to the caption, we should pay attention to her boobs, the product placement, and her attitude. Unfortunately, the former two are unrelated to the trope at hand, and the third isn't visisble in the picture.

JAFAAC, motion to pull.

Rhetorical, eh? ... Eight!

The caption isn't very good, but I think the attitude does come through in her face and posture. There are probably better images out there, but I think this one's at least adequate, and doesn't need to be pulled unless we find a better replacement. (And I haven't the slightest clue who the character or her work is, btw.)

The picture itself is fine. The caption is bad. Take off the caption.

I pulled the caption; it adds nothing and distracts from the point of the trope. The picture is okay, though.

I think something like "My father liked Miller. Fuck him and everything he holds dear." would fit the character better.

Fight smart, not fair.

[up] That sounds like she's intending to have sex with a guy named Miller.

Maybe change it to Miller Light or Miller Draft or something.

MGD would work.

Although I don't like the "My father" one quite as much because that sounds like it's a 'rebellion against parents' attitude thing, and it's not.

I think the pose, the expression, and the beer can in the pic convey ladette-ism well enough, so a caption isn't really needed.

If we're going to have a caption, I like Willbyr's.

I quite like this picture, because it gets across the concept of The Lad-ette right away—and I think it's better that she's clearly very womanly, since it won't be instantly confused with a Brawn Hilda or butch woman.

Like I said, it fit the character, not necessarily the trope.
