It's a mic-dropper.

First off, if you missed Wednesday’s Twitter beef between Kanye West and Wiz Khalifa, go ahead and catch up. We’ll wait. 

Anyway, West made the mistake of bringing both Khalifa’s ex-wife Amber Rose and son Sebastian Thomaz into the rant, and from that point we only knew it was a matter of time until Rose clapped back.

When she finally did, it wasn’t just a tweet. It was a tweet that birthed one of the best hashtags in social media history.

And of course everyone has been running with it.

Granted, Rose’s tweet was meant as an insult, which isn’t cool—there’s nothing wrong with buttplay, dudes—but West definitely had that coming and should’ve known Super Saiyan Muva was coming for that ass. Anyways, let this be a lesson to everyone who ever thinks it’s a good idea to cross Amber Rose: It’s not.

Update 11:28am CT, Jan. 29: Late Thursday night, West wanted to bring some clarity to the whole #FingersInTheBootyAssBitch situation. The artist tweeted that he had never let exes play with his ass, saying that he and his “wife got the kind of love that can turn exes into best friends.”

Following his two-tweet clarification, the Internet turned the situation into another trending hashtag: #KanyeAnalPlaylist. People have tweeted everything from their shock at the trending topic to actual song suggestions for such a playlist.
