MEMernet: TikTok Joy, Ja and The Rock, and Ivermectin

Dwayne Johnson hollers at Memphis, GOP compares humans and horses, and a puddle of joy.

Memphis on the internet.

Joy

The MEMernet cares not that this TikTok video was posted in February. The joy of watching a bunch dudes dive into a puddle is worth a view anytime.

Tweet of the Week

Posted to Twitter by Ja Morant and Dwayne Johnson

Sports podcaster and writer Francis Carlota stirred up some MEMernet magic last week. He suggested Ja Morant and Dwayne Johnson meet up at FedExForum in the postseason (for some reason).

Johnson replied, “I made my bones and came up in Memphis!!! That’s my city! I wrestled every Saturday morning at the channel 5 tv station and every Monday night I wrestled at the Big Top flea market.”

Morant seemed open to the meeting, tweeting simply, “Yeah, pull up
@theRock.”

“Like many GOP-led states, TN just made ivermectin available to anyone. Quote of the session from sponsor @SenFrankNiceley: ‘It’s a lot safer to go to your pharmacist and let him tell you how much ivermectin to take than it is to go to the co-op and guess what size horse you are.’” — From Nashville Public Radio reporter Blake Farmer
