1200In the past, you might have been one of those unfortunate people subjected to the cheesy pick-up line, “did it hurt? When you fell from heaven?” by a random guy on a night out. Why they think they think it will work every single time, I have no idea, but clearly there’s someone up there – where we fell from – looking out for us, because Twitter has saved us and transformed this tragic pick-up line into the chaotic meme trend we didn’t know we wanted but always deserved.

As part of this new Twitter trend, people are revamping the visceral cringiness of the original by replacing the second half with a different question that’s intended to hit a little *too* close to home, just so we can be subjected to a fun little bit of roasting that’s just that little bit more personal each time we refresh our feeds and sell more and more of our souls to the algorithm. Here are some of the funniest, weirdest, and most savage takes on the meme that may just have you rethinking everything:

1.Spain but without the s

did it hurt? when you woke up before your alarm and checked the time and you had less than a minute left? did it hurt?
