The hottest Twitter meme puts a hilarious spin on dating profile clichés

Who are you and what are you looking for? These are standard questions that people have been asking strangers on the internet since the first instant messaging services. Remeber the A/S/L of the early internet? Now people are identifying themselves, and their intentions, in a new meme.

Like the length of recording meme, the ‘looking for’ meme creatively uses emoji to set up a joke. In this meme, people use circular emoji to make it appear that they are answering questions in a survey. The meme really took off after this tweet about Carly Rae Jepsen:

I am a:

🔘 Man
⚪️ Woman

Looking for:

⚪️ Men
⚪️ Women
🔘 Carly Rae Jepsen’s 2015 masterpiece E•MO•TION to receive the justice it deserves

More music-related requests followed.

Then, like all memes, people started using it to reference pop culture.

You can use the meme to pretend to be someone else.
