This meme started as a cartoon of two penguins sitting on either side of a “friend-ship” (友谊的小船 yǒuyì de xiǎochuán). If one of the penguins loses weight, the cartoon says, the boat will capsize and they will both fall into the water. The cartoon is a metaphor for how cyber friendships can hang in a delicate balance, and as it is easy to block or delete one’s social media contacts. The cartoon's suggestion that something as minor as losing weight might make a friend jealous, led to the buzzphrase “the friend-ship boat capsizes too easily” (友谊的小船，说翻就翻 yǒuyì de xiǎochuán, shuō fān jiù fān). The cartoon turned into a viral meme which was shared 78,000 times in 10 days, with users providing their own explanations for why the "friend-ship" had a falling out.
