"SEXY BOI!"Explanation At the 1:30 mark of the Nintendo Switch announcement trailer, an NPC screams something similar to this phrase, riding the bug equivalent of a horse while stabbing enemies. It was one of the first phrases in Silksong being misheard out of the bugs Speaking Simlish.
"Milksong"Explanation Quite an intentional naming by fans for the sequel, in an attempt to heavily associate Hornet with milk just by changing the first letter of "silk" (which she uses a lot). Although there are several variations and origins of this (i.e. Like if the Knight from the first game is linked to the black void, then Hornet might have some powers fueled by a liquid. Plus, it was also pointed out that there is an emphasis of the color white in Hornet's HUD.)
Others simply just wantedto draw Hornetwith a box of milk... And many other milk-related Hornet fanarts came, even before Silksong is released. In fact, the second linked image was claimed to be the first instance of these "Milk" memes, which brings us the next fandom phrase below:

"How did the Milk Memes even start?"Explanation A phrase commented by those who are baffled on the origins of the "Milksong" meme and all "Milk"-related puns to Hornet. While it was claimed to have started from a single image, fans didn't expect that it would blow out of proportion after the Silksong trailer. When these memes popped up, people wanted explanations, hence this question and its variants came to be.
"Pale King is an Anti-Vaxxer"Explanation Back in the first game, charm Flavor Texts and an exposition from Salubra reveals that the Lifeblood substance is banned in Hallownest because the Pale King hated it for some reasons unknown. In the demo, Hornet is shown to be injecting herself with Lifeblood using a syringe. Cue some jokes connecting the two details, and claiming that the Pale King also hates Lifeblood-filled syringes by extension, hence "anti-vaxxer".
