Women Are Exposing Fuckbois With the ‘Anyone Recognize This Room’ Trend

Carly Tennes Published 05/10/2023 in Funny

If you recognize this room, you might just be fucking a fuckboi.

Despite the many methods of flagging a douchebag – strategically placing hair ties and used fake eyelashes throughout their S.O.’s abode for others to find – TikTok has taken the beloved past time into the 21st century with the “does anyone recognize this room?” trend.

Swapping tiny lip glosses for video clips, the premise behind this new method of fuckboi identification is simple. Upload a video depicting your partner’s – or prospective partner’s – bedroom. Add a caption asking if anyone on the platform finds their home a little too familiar. Let the replies dictate whether your FWB is actually BF material.

Within its few weeks of TikTok fame, this new “to catch a fuckboi” method has proven very effective, as influencer @mikaylaoleksykk knows all too well.

“Before I say yes to being his gf – does anyone recognize this room?” she asked in one of the trend's most viral iterations, amassing upwards of 1.6 million likes in its first week on the site.

With thousands of comments analyzing the candles and cleanliness of his room – “might wanna check if he got a girl bsf,” commented @anna_karrin citing his mirror and white blanket – and others accusing him of living in an Airbnb, @mikaylaoleksykk finally got her answer.

“Officially single,” she captioned a video uploaded the following day, thanking her followers for their insights in the caption.
