Spider-Man's Ten-Year Anniversary

That's a cute outfit. Did your husband give it to you? Actually, he did. He bought this for me on our ten-year anniversary. Not only is he my lover, he’s my best friend and my soulmate. I’m not ashamed of who I love, nor should I be. For someone with strange abilities due to, I assume, accidental exposure to radioactive spider-blood, you’re not very tolerant of those different to yourself. You’re on the wrong side of history, Spider-Man. FACT

Spider-Man asks whether the outfit was a gift from the woman’s husband, while Wolverine proudly explains his loving relationship and criticizes Spider-Man’s intolerance. The joke comes from treating a superhero costume as an unusual outfit and framing Wolverine’s dramatic speech as a response to a possibly homophobic assumption. It is used as an absurd reaction meme about hypocrisy, tolerance, and being corrected.
