Jennifer Garner just responded to her viral Oscars meme, and LOL, girl!
The 2018 Oscars brought us many a meme-able moment — and the subject of one such moment is totally into it. During the broadcast, cameras panned to Jennifer Garner sitting in the audience innocently clapping, and then appearing to have a sudden realization. “What realization did Jennifer Garner just come to?” tweeted Jezebel writer Bobby Finger alongside the hilarious shot.
Finger’s tweet quickly went viral, racking up more than 157,000 likes and endless responses. And on Tuesday morning, March 6th, the meme hit peak viral-ness when Garner herself responded via Instagram (!!!).
Here’s the initial meme, in case you missed it. false
Garner then posted three Instagram stories in a row, each one featuring her voiceover on top of the clip:
"Congrats to Shape of Water. Maybe I should date a fish?" Garner says in the first clip.
"Hey, Jimmy Kimmel, what's in your wallet? Wait, where is my wallet?" she narrates in the second.
"Can't wait to work with Lena Dunham. Wait, did I sign a nudity waiver?" Garner says.
(FYI: Garner is set to star in Camping, a new HBO series created by Lena Dunham and her Girls co-showrunner Jenni Konner.) false
OK, so maybe these weren’t the thoughts that were really going through Garner’s head in that moment. But you have to admit, they’re all hilarious. And Twitter seems to agree.
“maybe i should date a fish” i’m literally wheezing

And of course, we’re all now currently waiting for Guillermo del Toro, Jimmy Kimmel, and Lena Dunham to respond to Garner’s realizations about them. No pressure, guys — though Garner did set the bar pretty high.
