The 'It's Me, I'm the PS5' meme stems from a viral TikTok audio skit where a man's partner catches him talking to a friend on the phone. To cover for his friend, the person on the other end (Marcus) begins speaking in a robotic monotone, claiming to be the PlayStation 5 console communicating directly with the woman's brain. The line 'It's me, I'm the PS5, speaking to you inside your brain' became an instant internet catchphrase, symbolizing the ultimate 'bro code' sacrifice. It is widely used to depict absurd cover stories, gaming-related humor, and scenarios where someone has to pretend to be an inanimate object to escape a social predicament.
