Youth does not last forever; for many people, that is unforgivable. This week, Twitter user @thenorthmens went viral after posting two pictures of Leonardo DiCaprio, one in the 90s and one now, with the caption, "twink death is a terrifying thing." If you didn't know, a twink is a slim, young, and hairless gay man. You might think, "but Leonardo DiCaprio does not fit into that category at any age!" You would be correct, but that matters very little to Twitter users. Twitter users will call any young man a twink whether they're gay or not! It's because "twink" is a funny word, and everyone wants to say it as much as possible, even when it's not applicable.
Twink death is inevitable. Nobody can be young, hairless, and slim forever! Nobody is supposed to be a twink until they die, and this concept of the dying twink has sparked a lot of hilarious and insightful tweets.
