The 'Mom's Spaghetti' meme stems from the lyrics of Eminem's 2002 hit single 'Lose Yourself,' featured in the film 8 Mile. The line 'There's vomit on his sweater already, mom's spaghetti' describes the intense anxiety of a battle rapper before taking the stage. Over time, the internet transformed these lyrics into a versatile copypasta and visual meme, often used to humorously represent social anxiety, awkwardness, or literal pasta-related mishaps. It peaked in popularity through various 'spaghetti' remixes where the lyrics are nonsensically replaced by the phrase, solidifying its place as a cornerstone of internet culture.
