JD You Coming To Practice?

About

JD You Coming To Practice? refers to a catchphrase and spam comment common on TikTok that originates from an Instagram Story screenshot in which a guy (presumably named J.D.) posted an iMessage he received from a friend who asked him if he was coming to practice. J.D. responded "Yea" in the Instagram story's text and the screenshot (taken by an observer) joked, "mfs put anything on they story," highlighting that J.D.'s Instagram story was odd. The original meme was posted in a viral TikTok photo slideshow in mid-2024, spawning the spam comment trend on the app and elsewhere online. The trend circulated simultaneously with other TikTok comment trends like Jah Pull Off and Them YNs, resulting in slang overload content that combined all of the prevalent catchphrases and made fun of their overuse.
