Think you're in an unshakeable relationship? This meme might tell you otherwise.

A number of "if ur dating a ___, ur single to me" posts have popped up on Twitter in the past few days. They are very tongue-in-cheek (so don't get mad), and posit the idea that if you're dating a certain kind of person -- an egirl, a romantic poet, an Instagram model -- you basically qualify as single. As in, the person tweeting doesn't see them as a threat.

In the case of a tweet about a touring musician, for example: "what's he gonna do, FaceTime you?" Fair point!

Anyway, at the risk of over-explaining a meme, thereby making it less funny, please enjoy the following tweets.
