【Obscene Wife】

Picture this: it's 2009 and Obscene Wifeyou're on MySpace. You're listening to an Avril Lavigne track you downloaded off of LimeWire and you have five missed AIM messages. You come across a post with an image of a broken heart that reads "s(he) be(lie)ve(d)." It's the deepest thing you've ever read.

Ten years later, the internet has collectively gone back in their feelings reviving this brand of relatable heartbroken quotes. Poking a little fun at our younger, more extra selves, this meme is a perfect time capsule of '00s internet culture.

I must admit that middle school me found graphics like these, as well as variations like "s(he)'s br(ok)en," somoving and evocative. It's a nostalgic whiplash for many people, which according to Know Your Meme, first gained popularity with a Blogspot post in 2009.

The Urban Dictionary definition says the phrase "describ[es] the stereotypically-common occurrence of a male lying to a female for personal gain, and a female believing the male because she is 'naive.'"

But recently, the meme seems to have picked up recently due to Billie Eilish's single "sHE's brOKen," with Gen Z fans not realizing how we struggled back in the day.

But the emotional impact lessens once you notice that in-between the lines, the statement just reads as "sbeve." The sarcastic memes have since commenced.

To anyone who got their hearts broken in middle school, elementary school, or even recently, this one's for you. Sbeve. :'(
