John Pork rose to fame on TikTok in 2023 as an AI-generated pig character presented as a celebrity-like figure who unexpectedly calls viewers. The running joke was the fake incoming call, often shown as a phone screen, which made the meme easy to copy across edits, reaction videos and pranks. Snapchat versions kept the same idea, framing the call as a direct message or notification from John Pork himself. Because the joke needs no explanation for TikTok audiences, the sound still works as a quick, recognisable interruption in short-form comedy.
