About

Babe, You OK? refers to a snowclone popular on Twitter that plays on the cliché of a person asking their significant other if they're feeling alright after noticing they're acting out of character. Common iterations include noticing the significant other hasn't eaten a novelty food item or completed famous ad campaign slogans.

Origin

While variations on "Babe, you ok?" tweets have appeared on Twitter for years, the format began becoming a popular meme in the summer of 2020. On July 20th, 2020, user @heybillierae[1] posted one of the first examples to gain significant spread, tweeting, "everything OK babe? you’ve barely touched your dinosaur chicken nuggies in japanese curry," gaining over 160 retweets and 1,500 likes (shown below, left). She was referring to a picture of such a food item (shown below, right).
