If I were to say, strolling Twitter every day to spot funny Twitter trends is my life’s mission, I wouldn’t be exaggerating. People are so funny, ya! And all it takes is one small tweet that has the potential to be memed or turned into a new joke format, and there’s an avalanche! The latest Twitter trend that’s got everyone ROFL is about how, behind every gay person in movies, tv shows, and entertaining documentaries, there is always a more evil and gayer character just waiting in the shadows.
behind every gay person is a gayer, more evil gay person

I mean, what an observation, right? And if you need proof, Twitter just said, “Here, hold my beer!”
Users on Twitter started responding to this tweet with their own ideas of characters who perfectly embody the statement! So you’ll see characters like Eve and Villanelle from Killing Eve, and even Kurt Hummel and Sebastian Smyth from Glee. But what’s even more hilarious is that the jokes are now expanding to people talking about the queer ships from their fanfiction! This includes some seriously iconic characters who aren’t canonically gay but like Sherlock and Moriarty from the series Sherlock, they kinda sorta have been queer-shipped together by fans!

Another such famous example is Sarah Paulson’s nurse Ratched and Cynthia Nixon’s Gwendolyn Briggs from Ratched. After all, they were a truly iconic duo, weren’t they?

Another user believes that a brilliant example of this trend lies in Euphoria i.e. Nate Jacobs and his father, Cal Jacobs. I mean, even if they weren’t technically evil, they did nail their roles in the basic sense. Right?

Many such examples lie in the Marvel universe too. I mean, the chemistry coming off Bucky Barners and Baron Zemo in The Falcon And The Winter Soldier? Ooof!

Marvel has other such ships. Someone pitched Tony Stark and Steve Rogers too! But, come on, aren’t Steve and Bucky the perfect example?

A very literal example of this would be Eve and Villanelle from Killing Eve. She is definitely the more evil and gay person behind Eve. Isn’t she?
