First there was the flat stomach meme. Then it became the pregnant meme.
The internet is one big osmosis of ideas, so it comes as little surprise that a tongue-in-cheek meme about wanting a flat stomach versus eating lots of yummy food was given an upgrade.
The flat stomach meme began with Twitter user @itsJWolfe, who posted a side profile of a human body using dashes.
It was accompanied by a simple caption.
Me: I want a flat stomach.
My stomach
Others used the meme to describe food and eating too.
There was the inevitable 'healthy' stomach
And one about fast metabolisms
There was an Italian stomach...
Also: Cakes.
A heartache stomach
A stress stomach
A hot beverage tummy
It was fun for a while. And then the stomach got pregnant.
And then it turned into something weird.
Because floating emoji heads inside someone's stomach is weird
But not as weird as a floating emoji head that also has floating hands.
And it wasn't long before the NSFW ones slipped through. Because we can't have nice things.
