A new relationship meme recently made the rounds on mating in captivity "a friendship with no passion is no for eroticismTwitter, and -- like "build the perfect man" before it -- it got really weird, really fast.
The meme is based on a dated stock image of some dude whispering in some girl's ear (barf) with the caption: "Post the four words every girl wants whispered in her ear."
At some point, this was probably some earnest 2011 Facebook thing, but it's taken on a new life: the life of a 48-hour meme that people got tired of almost instantly.
That's not to say there weren't a few gems, though. Like most memes of this nature, "post the four words" is best when it's superniche -- and if there's one thing Twitter can deliver, it's niche content.

Yes, there were a few earnest examples ("You look great tonight!"), but those make us feel queasy, so we will not include them here. There are plenty of places on the internet for earnestness, but alongside a problematic stock photo isn't one of them.
Okay, as you were. Happy meme-ing.
