Brushie Brushie Brushie

Have you ever wanted to take a brush and brush someone on the head, hand or anything like that? If you have, then you should give it a try to create some humor around but not literally of course. Why are we talking about that? Well, it is because of the upcoming Internete Meme. The name of this Internet Meme is written in the title - Brushie Brushie Brushie. Sounds cute? Maybe but wait till you see what is coming up.

In January 2008, a Facebook user named Mandi Griffith created a Photo Album called Baby Bats. A photo in particular which has a baby bat named Rubberlegs along with a caption saying "Rubberlegs enjoying a brush with his blue toothbrush" was also added to the Facebook's public group "Bats" that had a huge collection of 95 bat photos!

Gross, don't you think? Based on the research that we have done, it is not entirely clear who was the first person to take a photo of the bat. Despite that, this Internet Meme soon developed and it was named Brushie Brushie Brushie mainly because the primary image of picture uses a person's hand holding a brush and brushing a bat in the image. Brushie Brushie Brushie is pretty normal from our point of view because it is similar to Lolcats but as always, the humor caught the attention of Internet users and slowly, they started spreading it around the Internet like a wildfire.

Random images of people, a bat, cartoon characters and even game characters such as Batman, Eve (from Wall-E) and Zelda were taken and the user attaches a hand, a fat hand according to some and a brush to the subject to brush them as if they want to clean some dirt from the face or hand. Besides that, some users decide to insert some funny caption into the image. And just like the Lolcats, some users created a story out of it. It is not that long like the one mentioned in the Cats' Meow post but rather, a very short one. Here is an example of it:

Get it? It is like you doing 'A' and getting 'B' as a result. Pretty straightforward I guess. Anyways, this Internet Meme is pretty normal with nothing much spectacular to remember about even though some of the images can draw out some laughter. But that is just us.
