Origin

On April 26th, 2021, Twitter[6] user @EliteSonicFan posted a four-panel meme with a humorous exchange between Sonic the Hedgehog characters Sonic and Knuckles. In the sketch, Knuckles asks Sonic, "Bro, are you flirting with my sister?," to which Sonic replies, "Yes, I am!" Knuckles then asks, "Do you wanna die?" And Sonic says "Yes, I do!." The post (shown below) gained over 940 retweets and 7,700 likes in nine months.

On November 14th, 2021, YouTuber[1] Jehtt posted a sketch using modded gameplay footage and based on the exchange. The video gained over 5.6 million views within six weeks (shown below).
