About
When He's Copying Your Snaps So You Pull This Move or Boom Shakalaka Yess Gawd is a redraw meme trend based on a TikTok slideshow of a girl flexing her muscles so that the boy copying her Snapchat posts will also flex his muscles. The TikTok was originally posted by user @bostynbaker in December 2024 but has since been deleted. That month, a redraw of the slideshow was posted to X / Twitter, inspiring further redraws throughout December 2024 and January 2025.
Origin
As early as October 19th, 2024, TikTokers began posting videos using a variation of the caption, "When he's copying your snaps so you pull this move," then showing themselves flexing as if trying to get the boy they're Snapchatting with to show his muscles. One of the earliest examples of this was posted by TikToker[1] @em..ilyx on October 19th, 2024, garnering over 240,000 views in three months.
Examples of videos using a similar caption about someone copying their snaps exist prior to this, however, this is the earliest known example to specifically feature the muscle flex.
