There’s a new filter sweeping social media, and it’s leaving people somewhere between delighted and personally attacked. The “Your Disney Twin” filter is a fresh trend that’s blown up in the past few days, and it promises to show you which Disney character you most resemble — by matching half of your face with a randomly selected character.

The results? Sometimes spot-on, sometimes hilariously off, and occasionally, just downright savage. This viral trend has millions of people sharing their matches, and the reactions are comedy gold.

The filter that’s roasting everyone

The “Your Disney Twin” filter is available on Snapchat, Instagram, and TikTok. It works by splitting the screen — one half shows your face, and the other half reveals your Disney look-alike.

The fun (or the pain) is in the randomness. You might get paired with a graceful princess, a daring hero, or… Jafar. The unpredictability of it all has sparked countless reactions, making the filter wildly popular.

People haven’t been shy about sharing their results — and their reactions are half the fun.

Another user, @lilylaughsalot, was matched with Goofy and just sighed: “Can’t argue with that.”

Meanwhile, @sarahsmiles got Yzma from The Emperor’s New Groove and said:“Honestly? I feel attacked, but also… she’s kind of fabulous.”

When @johndoughnut got paired with Quasimodo: “Guess I’m ringing the bells today!”

Why it’s going viral

The magic of this filter is in its mix of nostalgia and humor. We all have a soft spot for Disney characters, but getting matched with someone unexpected adds a layer of comedy. Whether it’s the joy of nailing a perfect match or the hilarity of a total mismatch, the filter taps into our love for a little playful self-roasting.

Final thoughts — and a challenge

Think you’ll get Ariel or Prince Eric? Give the filter a try and find out. Just be prepared — Disney magic can be as savage as it is sweet.

Try the filter and join the fun. Share your results with the hashtag #DisneyTwin and see who else got hilariously humbled by Disney’s casting department.

Why millennials are saying Uncle Phil from The Fresh Prince is the greatest TV dad ever

Sitcoms hit a peak in the 80s and 90s—and most Millennials can claim that they 'grew up' with them. A lot of time it was the father figures in these TV shows who proved to be standout characters, but one dad captured Millennials hearts over all the rest: Uncle Phil, played by actor James Avery in Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. Uncle Phil was deemed the best sitcom dad by Millennials, and he earned the title from one of his show's most impactful scenes from the episode "Papa's Got a Brand New Excuse" that aired in May 1994.

In it, Will (played by actor Will Smith) spends time with his dad Lou, who has been absent for the past 14 years. Uncle Phil is distrustful of Lou and protective over his nephew Will. So when Lou decides to dip out on a trip he planned with Will, Uncle Phil steps into Will's pain and supports him. It plays out as one of the most emotional scenes Millennials can remember–making Uncle Phil the best TV dad in their eyes.

Dad explains how he 'protects' daughter by taking her into the women's bathroom

While some states have made great progress in improving the child changing stations in men's bathrooms, many still lag behind. A few years ago, father Charles Mau went viral when he shared the appalling conditions he encountered while changing his daughter.

That's why Chronicles of Daddy blogger Muhammed Nitoto decided to share his solution to the problem: taking his daughter into the women's bathroom instead. In a viral Instagram post, Nitoto explained that he does so to "protect" his daughter from "all things that aren't for them, and the men's bathroom is 100% one of those things."

Boyfriend critiques girlfriend’s ‘performance.’ She shut him down instantly.

Love isn’t a business transaction, but one boyfriend apparently didn’t get the memo. When one woman shared her story, the internet was left cringing and cheering her on after she dumped her boyfriend for giving her a performance review—just like a boss would with an employee. Instead of talking through relationship concerns like a normal person, he decided to critique her ‘performance’ as a girlfriend, complete with a folder of written notes. The reaction? Exactly what you’d expect.

The relationship audit no one asked for

The couple had been together for three years, living in a modest apartment that worked for them. According to the girlfriend, Mark always had quirks—like folding his socks into little balls and getting upset if she didn’t do it the same way.

Customer fights back after restaurant refuses to serve free tap water

Some restaurants have adopted automated payment systems that include mandatory gratuities, sparking debates about tipping culture. While many argue that tipping provides essential income for service workers, others believe restaurants should pay fair wages instead. A Reddit user, u/ilikesnark, recently shared a frustrating dining experience that reignited the discussion—this time over a restaurant's refusal to serve tap water.

In their post, titled "Waitress refused to give me water so I removed the 15% auto gratuity," the Redditor described the awkward situation. They had gone out to eat alone and noticed the restaurant’s policy of automatically adding a 15% tip to every bill. While ordering, they requested a glass of tap water, but the waitress instead brought a bottle of water. When the customer asked again for tap water, the waitress insisted they didn’t have any.

For 27 years, she photographed her parents waving goodbye. The final shot is heartbreaking.

Saying goodbye to loved ones can be a tender, bittersweet ritual, especially when those goodbyes accumulate over decades. For photographer Deanna Dikeman—known on Instagram as @deannadikeman—documenting these moments became a powerful, long-term project. Over 27 years, she snapped photos of her parents waving farewell in their driveway, culminating in one final image that feels like a punch to the gut.

A 27-year tradition
What began in 1991 as a casual snapshot turned into an ongoing series Dikeman informally called “Leaving and Waving.” Every time she left her parents’ home, she would pause to capture them standing in the driveway, hands raised in a goodbye wave. In an Instagram post shared by @the.pinklemonade, her images spanned from the early ‘90s until October 2017. The collection is currently on display at Réseau L U X (@reseau_lux) in Paris.
