Miley Cyrus released 'Wrecking Ball' in 2013 and its chorus became one of the most quoted pop hooks of the decade, parodied and memed endlessly for its theatrical heartbreak. As the clip travelled, non-English-speaking fans respelled what they heard, and Brazilian meme pages turned it into the phonetic joke 'ai queime laica ureking bou caralho,' which is why this page's raw title reads 'I CAMA LIKE A WRECKING BALL.' Editors still reach for the line whenever a video needs an instant, overblown impact moment.
