The old and cringy pickup line "Did it hurt? When you fell from heaven" has started trending after a user going by the name @bratzockeden first tweeted "did it hurt? When you fell off" in July. But the trending started in August when everyone joined in and an avalanche of tweets started appearing with humorous twists.

User @tillamundo tweeted "did it hurt? When the version u created of me in your head didnt align with who I really am". There were others who tweeted interesting twists and it was all over the internet the whole of August.

Companies too joined in soon and made it even more interesting. Swiggy's take was "did it hurt? When you realized pineapple on pizza actually tastes kinda nice".

Instagram was like "did it hurt? When an egg got more likes than you"

And the trend continues..........
