Sit back, relax and enjoy a nice bath inspired by the Internet.

Natural and vegan beauty lovers are probably familiar with the brand Lush, an upscale beauty store that sells all natural and homemade cosmetics that are free of harsh chemicals and animal testing.

One of the company's most popular items is called the bath bomb: a fizzy bath time alternative to bubble bath.


Actual bath bombs are easy to DIY if you don't want to fork over the $6-$10 for a Lush branded bomb, but some people on Vine are taking it to the next level.

Vine user pastaflute is credited with making the first of the "love my new Lush bath bomb" Vine memes, with her Vine of watermelon in place of the cult beauty buy.

Of course, the joke about using everyday objects as Lush bath bombs has been circulating social media for several years.

Naturally, the Internet cannot refuse a new meme, so many people have followed in the Vine user's footsteps, tossing in their unwanted tech:



Some toss in food for a luxurious soak:





Some tossed in their pets:



Some tossed in actual people:

There are some of the most random objects you'll ever see in one collection of Vines:






Carry on, Internet.
