Leave, cat/woman screaming memes (open in new tab). If you're an older person like me, the number one question on your mind since this weekend is, "Wait, what's this Flip the Switch (open in new tab) I've been seeing all over social media?" . Well, I have great news. Flip the Switch, Flip and Switch, or simply the Flip Challenge is a viral sensation that started on TikTok and quickly spread to Twitter, Instagram, and eventually Facebook. So what do we know about this social media sensation?

The line comes from Drake's song "Nonstop," with the lyrics "Look, I just flipped the switch (flipped, flipped) / I don't know nobody else that's doin' this.

The meme is typically set up like this: two people stand in front of a mirror, one in front and one in the back, and the person in the back dances and moves around while the person in the front holds the phone. Then the lights go out, and when they come back on, their clothes are reversed. The person in the back is now dancing (they flipped it around; the person in the back is now dancing).

This is a father and daughter thing (they both crack up about a second after the switch is turned on), but it's just darling:

Oh, God.

Oh my god, my brain and heart exploded at the same time:

I think this angry face makes a chef's kiss for me (go mama!) :

It doesn't quite follow the same format, but it's still fun to watch:

The A-Rod and J-Law couple is really adorable:

And maybe my favorite, Senator Elizabeth Warren and her SNL actor who plays her (you can see Kate McKinnon starting to break at the end):

Like most trends, this one will be short-lived, but I'm sure it will be absolutely epic. So keep searching the hashtag for a good laugh.
