People My Age Pregnancy Tests meme: meaning and origin
Posted by @websofmj on X. © its owner; shown in small form for ranking and commentary.
What it means
A posting format that starts "people my age buying pregnancy tests and me buying..." and finishes with the poster's own hobby purchase, such as photocards, comics, game skins, or trading cards. It is paired with the same short video of a grinning red slug-like creature in a bright scene of rainbows, dolphins, and flowers. The joke contrasts friends hitting adult milestones with the poster happily spending on their hobbies instead.
Where it started
The format spread through Portuguese-language quote chains on X before moving into English. The earliest post we traced is by @llypjkk on November 5, 2026 (Pacific time), ending "e eu comprando photocard", which other accounts quoted with their own endings. A November 7 version by @websofmj passed 640,000 views, per X's public counts, and an X News story covered the hobby variations. X post counts for the Portuguese phrase rose to more than 21,000 posts on November 8 (UTC). The original creator of the format and of the slug video hasn't been confirmed.
