Every once in a while, someone will interact with some animals in a weird or funny way, and twitter.. twitter cannot help themselves. They make that person go viral, the meme the heck out of them, they can't stop. It's like that time that they made the 101-year-old lobster woman who yeeted a lobster back into the ocean into a meme, or the time they made the girl who accidentally left her sugar glider in her bra as she went to a doctor go viral.
This time, it is an already famous person getting the twitter treatment, and it's funnier than you may think. Angela Merkel has gone on a zoo visit, got spooked by some birds, and twitter ran with it in the funniest ways. Really, ridiculous birds are the only way anything mildly political could be made funny - that and awwdorable dogs in politics who secretly run the world.
Is there anyone out there who has not felt this way? Come on, we were all kids in a zoo once, petrified by the birds sitting on us our of nowhere, the goat randomly coming up and munching on our fingers, the monkey trying to steal our phone. We feel you, gurl, we really feel you right now.
From hilarity to nothing but pureness. How it is possible to go from mildly petrified to Disney princess level one with nature is beyond us. It is either that, or she is still going through it and is simply forcing a smile out like those uncomfortable kids in pictures. You know the ones. She's just better at hiding the fear - lots of practice lol.
