The 'Wouldn't That Make You Gay?' meme originates from the 1957 Looney Tunes short titled 'What's Opera, Doc?', featuring Bugs Bunny disguised as the Valkyrie Brünnhilde. While the original dialogue between Elmer Fudd and Bugs revolves around the rabbit's identity, internet culture reimagined the scene with a fake subtitle that delivers a sarcastic 'gotcha' question. The meme gained massive traction on platforms like TikTok and Twitter in the early 2020s, often used as a playful or ironic retort to someone describing a situation that contradicts their usual preferences or behavior. Its popularity stems from Bugs Bunny's smug expression and the absurdist nature of the misquoted dialogue.
