And no, we’re not joking.

 

It all started with twitter account @dog_rates, who, as you might have guessed, rates dogs. But then twitter user @Brant, better known as Brent, stuck his nose in their business and decided to critique just how they do their ratings. Bront felt that the dog rater was too easy on the dogs, who are theoretically rated on a scale of 1 to 10. The dog rater, whose name is Matt Nelson, disagreed — he believes every dog deserves a 10, and many deserve, say, an 11 or 12. Or more.

The original tweet itself now has nearly 5,000 retweets and 10,000 likes and most viral screenshot of the conversation has nearly 55,000 retweets,with the image has spread to other platforms like Reddit and Tumblr. Nelson now sells “They’re good dogs, Brent” T-shirts on his website, and gained about 50,000 followers for @dog_rates because of it.

Walker on the other hand has gained about 1,000 Twitter followers since September and now has a strange but predictable phenomenon in his Twitter mentions. Whenever he tweets, between 3 and 20 people reply to him with some reference to the meme.

The viral exchange even received a small nod on his wedding cake.
