About
Hey Italian Man or Peppino Scream refers to a series of Pizza Tower memes using an exploitable video clip where Peppino, joined by two other characters, screams in fear at a subject. The meme uses a video uploaded by YouTuber LYON S.P.D in April 2023 where Peppino screams at the word "boob" changed to "boo" and became popularized on TikTok throughout April and May 2023. An audio clip of Peppino's scream also became popular as a lip dub audio on the app.

@srshachou01 Remember, take care of your cats and treat them as your child. And also, I hope that the guy who did this will go to jail for this. Note: The guy behind the cat in a blender vid was finally doxxed by some people from the internet and he got what he deserved. #catinablender #catinablendervideo #fyp ♬ original sound – ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀
