If the young woman above has been haunting your dreams, you may be a TikTok user.
This is Sammie Lewis, an 18-year-old student from Washington State and originator of the"here's the motherfucking tea" meme.Most of the video is Lewis ranting about a guy she knew.

The part that became the meme is the first few seconds when Lewis puts a straw in her Starbucks drink, gives a swirl and an exaggerated sip, then taps her acrylic nails on the camera lens while saying"here's the motherfucking tea.""The video blew up on TikTok so i just kept making more."

The audio from this TikTok has been reused by other users more than 50,000 times.Or Sharpies.Lewis has seen all the remakes, and she loves them."A lot of them crack me up," she said."It doesn’t bother me at all.
