The “When He’s Copying Your Snaps” meme, also called “Boom Shakalaka Yess Gawd,” is a viral redraw trend that started on TikTok in December 2024. It originated from a post by TikToker @bostynbaker, where she shared a slideshow of three images. The first image showed her stating, “When he’s copying your snaps so you pull this move,” followed by her flexing her bicep and then a boy copying her by flexing his own.
The joke behind the meme is that she tricks the boy into flexing his muscles by copying her Snapchat. After @bostynbaker deleted the original post, an X user reposted it and added a redraw featuring characters from the Genshin Impact ship pairing Haikaveh. This redraw version went viral and spread across platforms like TikTok, Reddit, Instagram, and X, where users began creating their own redraws using popular character pairings from anime, movies, and other fandoms.
The meme showcases different relationships and dynamics between characters, using the original flexing format as a fun way to express these interactions. It’s become a popular trend in early 2025 and continues to gain momentum across social media platforms.
