About
Oh Desgraça Feia, Quem Gozou Isso, which translates to "Oh Ugly Disgrace, Who Came This?" in English, is a text message in Portuguese that a person shared on Twitter in late 2022 as a mockery of a newborn baby picture shared in a WhatsApp group chat. The catchphrase became a prominent caption on social media to mock someone's appearance and, in August 2023, the mother of the Bebê Maria Julia went to a Brazilian news channel to comment on the impact the meme had on her family, with thousands of people calling her kid ugly, creating montages and other Photoshop images.

The post (shown below) amassed over 67,000 likes and 10,300 retweets in 10 months.
