History

Peter B. Parker Sucking Fingers is an image macro pulled from a scene in the 2018 animated film Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, in which the character licks burger grease off his fingers in a diner. Sitting dormant for six months after the trailer dropped, the still resurfaced on Twitter in late December 2018 and became a go-to reaction template for gross-out captions across Twitter, Instagram, and Reddit.

Origin

The scene is from Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, an animated Sony Pictures film released in December 2018[2]. Its first trailer went up on YouTube on June 6, 2018, and included a beat in a diner where a scruffy Peter B. Parker eats a cheeseburger and licks the grease off his fingers afterwards[1]. The moment sat unused as a meme for roughly six months.

Meme use kicked off on December 26, 2018, when a Twitter user posted a still from the scene captioned 'me when I get shit on my fingers while wiping my ass,' the earliest documented repost of the image as an exploitable[3].

Overview

The format works as a reaction image, where the still frame of a rumpled Peter B. Parker slowly sucking his fingers is paired with a caption describing something gross the poster is pretending to savor[1]. The visual is off-putting on its own, so the joke depends on stacking that discomfort against a first-person confession, usually bathroom, food, or hygiene humor[3].

Alongside the still, video remixers on Instagram looped the burger beat or spliced it against unrelated clips to sharpen the gross-out timing[3]. The Spider-Verse film[2] gave the scene enough recognition that captions rarely needed to explain the source, which helped the exploitable travel on Twitter, Instagram, and Reddit without extra context[3].

How to Use

Typical use pairs the still with a first-person caption describing a moment of disgust the poster is pretending to enjoy, often bathroom, food, or hygiene humor[3]. Remix versions loop the diner clip against unrelated audio or splice it onto other footage to punch up the gross-out timing[3].
