The song inspired a phrasal template in which people replace the things Gaston does with humorous and/or absurd activities. On September 4th, 2018, Twitter [6] user @readingtheend tweeted, "me: I need to buy new stamps so I'm not sending out condolence cards with Disney villain stamps on them friend: no one grieves like Gaston, acts bereaved like Gaston me: how are you doing this friend: no one orders ornate funeral wreaths like Gaston." The tweet (shown below, left) received more than 14,000 retweets and 67,000 likes in three days.

Following the tweet, more users began posting variations of the song (examples below, center and right).

On September 6th, Mashable [7] posted a listicle about the meme.
