A new filter is taking over Snapchat, Instagram, and TikTok, and it’s doing what all great filters do—stirring up feelings. The “Your Disney Twin” effect promises to reveal your cartoon counterpart by stitching your face together with a random Disney character.

The results are all over the place: some shockingly accurate, others laughably off. But no matter the match, one thing’s certain—people are absolutely losing it.

"It gave me Jafar. I’m still recovering."

The surprise factor is half the fun

Unlike filters that sculpt your jawline or smooth your skin, this one leans fully into chaos. You might be hoping for Belle or Simba, only to get Scar or Yzma instead. There’s no rhyme or reason to it, and that unpredictability is what’s fueling the laughter.

"It’s like spinning the Disney wheel of destiny."

TikTok

While TikTok doesn’t host the filter directly, most users record on Snapchat or Instagram and upload their reactions to TikTok using the tag #DisneyTwin.

The reactions are the real entertainment

Some of the best moments come from users sharing their shock, horror, or surprising pride in the character they get.

@itsmecharlieeee got Hades and said, “Guess I’m feeling villainous today.”
@lilylaughsalot landed Goofy and just muttered, “Can’t argue with that.”
@sarahsmiles was gifted Yzma and replied, “Honestly? I feel attacked, but also… she’s kind of fabulous.”
@johndoughnut ended up with Quasimodo: “Guess I’m ringing the bells today!”

"I feel attacked... but also fabulous."

What makes it go viral

Disney nostalgia is powerful—but so is a good self-own. This filter delivers both in one swipe. Whether you’re a villain, a sidekick, or an unexpected leading lady, the surprise is part of the magic.

Join the fun (or the roast)

Think you're destined to be Ariel or Eric? Don’t be so sure. Try the filter for yourself and see who you *really* are in the Disney universe.

Try the filter, save your video, and share it with the tag #DisneyTwin. Brave enough? Then you’re ready.

Grieving daughter gets epic revenge on debt collectors who demanded to speak to her dead dad

Handling the debts of a deceased family member can often become a stressful ordeal, particularly when creditors insist on speaking with someone who has passed away. Recently, Reddit user u/georgetgwtbn shared her unusual experience, detailing how she carefully managed almost all of her late father's financial obligations. However, things took a strange turn when a debt collection agency demanded to speak directly to her father—despite him having passed away several years earlier. This peculiar insistence prompted her to grant their request in a uniquely memorable way.

Why these words make your skin crawl—even if you don’t know why

Some words are perfectly harmless—until you hear them. Then your whole body clenches.

There’s no formula for why certain words make our skin crawl. Sometimes they’re overused. Sometimes they’re just... too much. So we asked our Facebook community: What’s a word that makes your skin crawl for no logical reason?

French family mocks woman in an elevator. She shut them down in their own language.

Speaking multiple languages has its advantages, but for one Vancouver woman, it became the ultimate weapon in a moment of unexpected linguistic revenge.

Reddit user u/Pixel__Detox, a 28-year-old woman living in a high-rise, shared how she overheard a French family openly judging her looks in an elevator—thinking she wouldn’t understand. Instead of reacting immediately, she waited for the perfect mic-drop moment.

A rock concert has nothing on this class.

One professor has cracked the code on keeping students engaged. Emo anthems.

Chaotic professor screams the same breakup song every time a student falls asleep in class

Once, in my sophomore year, I dozed off in Algebra 2 and caught a hurled eraser to the top of my head for it. It was the last time I fell asleep in class. Or, at least, in that teacher's class. If I'd had a teacher like TikTok superstar Matthew Pittman for that class I wouldn't have dared fall asleep. Not for fear of consequences but because I wouldn't have wanted to miss the show.

When students in Professor Matthew Pittman’s social media and advertising classes at the University of Tennessee nod off or lose focus, he doesn’t get mad—he gets emo. Instead of disrupting his lecture, Pittman sneaks up on the dozing student and bursts into a full-throated emo anthem. With renditions of songs like Blink-182’s I Miss You and Fall Out Boy’s Sugar, We’re Goin Down, Pittman has turned mundane classroom moments into viral gold.
