Hit 500 likes on a butter robot meme yesterday, still can't believe it

I threw together a quick edit of the butter robot asking "is this all there is?" while staring at a stick of melted butter. Posted it before bed and woke up to 500 likes and a comment thread from people arguing about existentialism in Toledo. Never thought a stupid 3-second loop would resonate with that many strangers. Has anyone else had a random meme blow up way beyond what you expected?

Yeah, that 'is this all there is?' line hits different when you're staring at a butter puddle. I had a similar thing happen with a picture of a cat sitting in an empty bathtub. Posted it as a joke, woke up to 800 likes and people analyzing if the cat represented midlife crisis. Best advice I've got is don't try to recreate it. Just keep making stupid stuff you find funny, and let the internet do what it does.
