The internet turned this photo of a young Target employee into a massive meme yesterday
YESTERDAY, THIS INNOCENT photo of a young Target employee named Alex inexplicably went viral.
It started yesterday when a Twitter user named @auscalum posted it with the accompanying text, “YOOOOOO”.
Whoops!

Though she later clarified that the photo was not hers and she begged for the hoopla to cease, Alex from Target quickly became its own beast.

Alex from Target now has in excess of 266,000 followers on Twitter, all on the basis of that one photo.
