Mutuals Over for Dinner

"Your afternoon snack, sir. The juice is freshly uhm... squeezed." "Even that is purple, huh... Fascinating..." "..." "Go fill up a bottle. I'm having some mutuals over for dinner."

An anime maid serves a purple drink to a stern, bearded man in a suit who is reading in a library. The joke uses the phrase “mutuals” to imply that online acquaintances are being treated as dinner, turning a polite hosting exchange into an absurdly ominous threat. It is shared as a dark reaction to suggest wanting to consume or eliminate one’s social-media mutuals.
