The 'Why Do They Call It Oven?' meme is a surreal piece of internet culture based on a nonsensical word-salad phrase. It originally gained notoriety through an edited Garfield comic strip featuring Jon Arbuckle, though the text itself is widely associated with a viral tweet that intentionally mangles English grammar. The joke relies on its absolute lack of logical structure, mimicking the feeling of having a 'stroke' while reading. The punchline—'of in cold food of out hot eat the food'—is a phonetic disaster that has evolved into a legendary copypasta. It is primarily used to represent peak confusion, abstract humor, or to mock late-night philosophical thoughts that sound profound but make zero sense.
