While Vine shuffled its mortal coil in 2016, many of its biggest stars have carried on with short-form comedy on YouTube and now TikTok, including Lele Pons, Liza Koshy, and David Dobrik. Even now, these short clip compilations still get millions of views on YouTube, and there are still multiple Instagram and Twitter accounts dedicated to them. Several vines have carried on their internet life as memes or gifs and have even been pasted onto merchandise. The vine in question shows a blonde teenager in glasses blowing a smoke circle using a vape on a desk when the person carrying the camera blows it away. The teen turns to the camera and exasperatedly says \u201cAdam!.\u201d Now the star himself has come onto TikTok to confirm some lore surrounding him and his twin brother, which has baffled thousands who never knew the truth. Another iconic and highly quotable vine involving one of the twins shows them walking into his bathroom in just a pair of boxers saying: \u201cHi, welcome to chillis.\u201d In another, one of the twins begs viewers to stop comparing him to Chicken Little. To most people, they look like the exact same person. https:\/\/twitter.com\/lilblizzard97\/status\/1331645679962353668 However, Patrick has explained in a viral TikTok that they\u2019re actually identical twins. Patrick was the star of the vape video, while the other twin is Adam and the star of the Chilli\u2019s vine. He also showed a picture of them together \u201csince a lot of people don\u2019t believe that there are actually two of us.\u201d Patrick also posted the video to Twitter and users were bowled over by the new information. One person wrote, \u201cI feel like a different person for knowing this,\u201d while another added, \u201cworld-shattering revelations are sometimes just small clarifications I guess.\u201d In less than 24 hours, Patrick\u2019s tweet has amassed 4,000 likes and continues to grow, bringing back a sense of nostalgia for many and clearing up a long-standing internet myth.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Former Vine star reveals truth behind iconic \u201cAdam\u201d meme Instagram: Patrick PerkinsFormer Vine star Patrick Perkins has cleared up a myth about an iconic meme years after it first took the internet by storm.
