This Montrealer Turned Boomer 'Internet Drama' Into A Music Video & It's Just. So. Good.

"She's a rotten, recipe stealin b––––, Doris."
Senior Editor

Your weird Boomer relative's Facebook arguments might be the next bop thanks to Lubalin, a Montreal-based musician who has turned "random Internet drama" into songs in two viral videos posted to social media.

On TikTok, the videos have been viewed over 22 million times each.

"Ooooooo Caroline / keep my name out / of your thin mouth," Lubalin croons, quoting what looks like a Facebook post in his most-viewed video.

What follows is a catchy dramatization of a Facebook user named Helen's emotional condemnation of Caroline's alleged theft of her broccoli casserole recipe.

The Facebook exchange culminates in Helen calling Caroline a "rotten recipe stealin' b––––" and offering someone named Doris an ominous warning: "be careful who your friends are."

In an earlier video, Lubalin acts out an all-too-familiar exchange for anyone who has ever attempted to sell something online.

We sure hope part three is on the way.
