The Dorime Rat, also known as Rato Dorime, is an absurdist internet sensation featuring a 3D-animated rat wearing a religious robe with its hands pressed together in prayer. The meme gained massive popularity in late 2019 and 2020, primarily across TikTok and Twitter, typically accompanied by a high-pitched remix of the song 'Ameno' by the musical project Era. While the lyrics are written in a pseudo-Latin gibberish, the meme uses the rat's pious appearance to represent mock-seriousness, divine intervention, or the act of pleading for something impossible. It has since become a staple of surrealist shitposting and 'cursed' internet culture.
