If you’re in the confused camp, allow us to explain. However, we must warn you what you’re about to read is going to be unpleasant.

***WARNING: The explanation is pretty gross***

The ‘My Little Pony jar’ trend is a reaction to a meme that became popular in 2014. This topic was posted on 4chan, an anonymous English-language image board website where people can post photos and have conversations on topics such as anime and movies. In short, it’s Reddit with images.

On the platform, a mystery user shared an image of him filling a jar – that had a My Little Pony Rainbow Dash figurine in it – with semen.

To make things worse, the user revealed he had accidentally heated the contents of the jar by leaving it too close to a radiator and it had led to the figurine melting.

The story was quick to reach Twitter and it didn’t take long for it to go viral. Since then, people have been bringing back the meme time and again. Fast forward to 2022 and TikTok is the latest platform that has users talking about the meme.

Before the ‘My Little Pony jar’ trend, people were talking about ‘vabbing’, a process that requires an individual to smear bodily fluid on themselves in the hopes of attracting a partner.

This bizarre trend became popular on TikTok and some people claimed they had tried the trend while at the gym. However, many people were just as quick to slam the trend.

The internet can be gross sometimes, can’t it?
