The 'Hobama' meme refers to the surreal and absurdist 'crackship' pairing of former U.S. President Barack Obama and pop star Harry Styles. Gaining traction primarily on platforms like Tumblr, Twitter, and Wattpad in the mid-2010s, the meme pokes fun at the hyper-specific and often nonsensical nature of internet fanfiction. Unlike traditional ships, Hobama is intentionally jarring and humorous, often manifesting as fake news headlines, photoshopped images of the duo, or dramatic readings of fictional romantic encounters. It serves as a cornerstone of 'weird internet' culture, used to satirize the intensity of fandoms and the unexpected ways celebrities are linked in digital subcultures.
