The specific line is: "He was in the Amazon with my mom when she was researching spiders right before she died." Maybe it makes more sense in context?
People threw it into existing meme formats, including Dakota Johnson's iconic "Ellen" appearance.

Needless to say, people had a lot of fun with the cringey dialogue.

But Twitter wasn't done there. No, they also had to dig up old Travis Kelce (Taylor Swift's new boo) tweets, but don't worry! They were surprisingly unproblematic.

In fact, they were — dare I say — wholesome? And funny? And kind of made me love him more?

Brands like Olive Garden and Chipotle definitely love him after he gave them shoutouts.
And another Twitter meme emerged this week: the not-yet-a-burger cow. Vegans, look away.

People twisted the original post into a joke, offering everything from meaty promises to suggesting recipes. I'm not sure whether to laugh or cringe!
You’re so much more, darling. You’re kpomo, leather, oxtail, peppersoup, nkwobi, suya… No Nigerian funeral is complete without you. You’re not a burger love, you’re more. Don’t let anyone tell you you’re a burger. https://t.co/ixWgyt5iXU

Meanwhile, on TikTok, another celeb got into hot water after participating in one of those "hey, random stranger, show me your apartment" videos.
The celeb: Reese Witherspoon's son. The issue: Nepo baby syndrome.
People in the comments seemed divided on whether or not the NYC apartment (admittedly very nice, but he does have roommates) screamed "nepo baby" or not. Guess we'll never know!
And now (for a palate cleanser), we rounded up a few enjoyable things from around the internet, just for you.
Yearn: To be a rich dog staying at The Plaza hotel.
Put: Some respect on Stanley Tucci's name!!!
