When you're trying to stop a crime but MJ wants to know if you would still love her if she was a worm
Overview
This meme features a screenshot of Tom Holland's Spider-Man (Peter Parker) standing on a tall building overlooking a sprawling city, looking down at his smartphone with an annoyed, exasperated expression. The top text caption reads: "When you're trying to stop a crime but MJ wants to know if you would still love her if she was a worm". It humorously contrasts the high-stakes, urgent duty of a superhero stopping crime with a silly, unexpected, yet relatable relationship question that interrupts his focus, playing on the common trope of partners asking whimsical love-related questions at inconvenient times.
Origin notes
According to the provided source information, this meme originates from Reddit, specifically within its meme communities. It is a derivative/remix meme, created by adding a humorous text caption to a screenshot from a Marvel Cinematic Universe Spider-Man film (featuring Tom Holland). The original movie scene does not include this text or context; the edit repurposes the character's frustrated expression to fit the relatable relationship-themed joke, and it likely circulated as a repost across multiple social media platforms after its initial Reddit appearance.
