Twitter has been a WILD place this week. Typically, I bookmark trending memes or funny tweets in case it’ll prove worthy of a highlight here. This week, it’s just been SO many it was impossible to choose (or you know, focus). Now, with Pennsylvania flipping blue for Joe Biden, Twitter users are celebrating with memes about Philadelphia, which is being credited with the final push to a Dem victory in the battleground state.
The major meme of the moment comes courtesy of It’s Always Sunny in Philadephia, specifically the ep where they played the drinking game flip cup. Say it with me: Flip Flip Flipadelphia!

Of course, the Always Sunny Crew isn’t the only Philly meme-kings getting shout outs. All hail the Gritty memes.

From Biden spokesperson, Bill Russo:
My decision to install a @GrittyNHL shrine in our office during this campaign has been vindicated. https://t.co/W14ndYCHrZ

They should let Gritty call PA on one of the networks, like when they bring in local figures to announce late-round NFL draft picks.

As it has been called to do many times before, Philadelphia has once again saved American democracy. Thank you Benjamin Franklin. Thank you Philly cheesesteaks. And thank you most of all Gritty. pic.twitter.com/OlkALfiMvC

Silliness aside, thank you to everyone who came out and voted blue. Thank you to all the volunteers, poll workers, counters, and everyone who took some time out to fight back for the future of our nation. Now take a breath and shake that ass like it’s covered in orange fur!
