So of course, it seems only logical for the online fallout resulting from the trio of blunders — [Pepsi’s controversial Kendall Jenner ad](http://time.com/4726500/pepsi-ad-kendall-jenner/ "undefined"), [United Airlines’ overbooking crisis](http://time.com/4732783/united-airlines-man-doctor-removed-overbooked-flight/ "undefined") and [Sean Spicer’s Hitler comments](http://time.com/4734994/sean-spicer-syria-adolph-hitler-chemical-weapons-holocaust/ "undefined") — to culminate in one meme that perfectly encapsulates the dreadful series of missteps. And that’s exactly what Twitter user [Chris Melberger](https://twitter.com/chrismelberger/status/851928818017239041/photo/1 "undefined") has created. “If Twitter this past week was a person here he is,” Melberger captioned an image — which has since garnered over 21,000 likes and nearly 12,000 retweets — of Sean Spicer holding a Pepsi while dressed as a United pilot. > [](https://twitter.com/chrismelberger/status/851928818017239041) Other Twitter users were quick to respond in kind, offering their own takes on the situation. > [](https://twitter.com/JoeGlo1/status/851861644690980864) > [](https://twitter.com/BradMossEsq/status/851862889782759429) > [](https://twitter.com/MEPFuller/status/851871982471786498) > [](https://twitter.com/MikeNellis/status/851861307087347713) > [](https://twitter.com/michaelsluciano/status/851883579923628032) > [](https://twitter.com/campaignbear/status/851918006909382664) > [](https://twitter.com/AngelaBelcamino/status/851953723567951873) > [](https://twitter.com/politics%5Fn%5Fprep/status/851925593633550336) ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4736157/sean-spicer-united-airlines-pepsi-meme/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4736157/sean-spicer-united-airlines-pepsi-meme/"},"headline":"Internet Miraculously Wraps Pepsi, United Airlines and Sean Spicer Into One Meme","datePublished":"2017-04-12T17:30:53.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:42:44.677Z","description":"The sum of all PR nightmares","url":"https://time.com/4736157/sean-spicer-united-airlines-pepsi-meme/","keywords":["Newsfeed","Internet","viral","united airlines","Pepsi","memes","sean spicer"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltb0509b8c9e049eff/6988c17b656a3f58fabcf6bb/jenner-pepsi.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Megan McCluskey","jobTitle":"Staff Writer","url":"https://time.com/author/megan-mccluskey/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltb0509b8c9e049eff/6988c17b656a3f58fabcf6bb/jenner-pepsi.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"jenner-pepsi","caption":"","creditText":"","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4736157/sean-spicer-united-airlines-pepsi-meme/","name":"Internet Miraculously Wraps Pepsi, United Airlines and Sean Spicer Into One Meme"}}]}] ```
