About

Trippi Troppi, also called Trulimero Trulichina, refers to a series of AI-generated Italian Brainrot memes that depict animal hybrids set to nonsensical Italian rhymes. The line "Trulimero Trulichina" often refers to a cat-fish hybrid, as does the line "Trippi Troppi," although the audio originates from a video featuring a hairy creature with a fish for a head.

Trippi Troppi is sometimes powerscaled and ranked against other AI brainrot memes that went viral online in early 2025, such as Bombardiro Crocodilo and Tralalero Tralala.
