Within three years, the post (shown below) received more than 44,000 retweets and 70,000 likes.[1]
Spread
The following day, the meme accounts @bestoftext[2] and @chloeonvine[3] shared the tweet, where it received, in total, more than 1,900 retweets and 4,000 likes in two years.
The format continued to be popular through the the next year, as people began posting the format and swapping out the picture of the father with another image (examples below).
Three years later, a variation on the meme appeared on Twitter. On January 9th, 2017, Twitter user @vx1k posted the image of the father with the caption "I hate my dad so much" and the text message "You heard me hitting that last night."[4]
