A humorous Twitter exchange where Xavier gives a literal answer to a question about chivalrous car door opening
Overview
This image is a screenshot of a public Twitter thread interaction. A user with display name kwame (@johlny_) asks the question "Do men still open car doors?", which is implied to refer to the chivalrous social norm of men opening car doors for romantic partners or other people as a polite gesture. The well-known internet meme character Xavier (@xavir69) replies with a deadpan, intentionally literal answer: "How do you think we get inside", subverting the intended meaning of the question by interpreting it as asking if men ever open car doors for themselves to enter the vehicle. The entire exchange is quote-tweeted by user @tchncllytru, who adds the single word "legend" above the thread to praise the funny, iconic reply. The tweet is dated July 23, 2021, has 42.7 thousand likes, and includes a Bored Panda watermark in the bottom right corner.
