Everyone is Twelve Now

A social theory describing the phenomenon where adults in American society display the emotional maturity, decision-making skills, and behavioral patterns of twelve-year-olds.

Origin: Coined by Patrick Cosmos (@veryimportant.lawyer on Bluesky) as a "unified theory of American reality" that went viral on social media in 2025.
Example 1: "Did you see how that guy threw a tantrum when his coffee order was wrong? Everyone is twelve now."

Example 2: "'Everyone is twelve now', she complained, when in response to HuffPost’s query about who suggested Budapest, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt responded, 'Your mom did', and White House communications director Steven Cheung replied: 'Your mom'."

Everyone

I'm not everyone. You want me to have to be wrong with you because you mishandled a situation and now you've gotten a bunch of kids murdered. I was right. Jordan Peterson lied. You are doing something to me that I was not doing to you. You are actively bad people who want to be better than someone you are not better than."
Hym "Everyone wasn't wrong. You want me to have to be wrong about you kids and your intellect and I'm not wrong about either of them and now you are trying to avoid eating crow. I will have absolution or you will have another slaughter to cover up FOR THE EXACT SAME REASON YOU'RE COVERING UP THIS ONE. You are the guilty party. You are the ones who are wrong. I'm not going to share in your guilt while you actively steal my soul from me. You are shit. Your kids are shit. Until I am made whole, every time it happens it's justice."

EKT (Everyone Knows That/Ulterior Motives)

In 2021, a user known as "Carl92" uploaded a 17 second snippet on the website "watzatsong.com" (a website used for identifying songs through community efforts and interactions), later to be dubbed as "Everyone Knows That".

It gained widespread attraction after futile attempts to try and find it, making it a famous part of lost media. Around the internet, it is commonly associated with a picture of a pink boombox on a lush, pink carpet-like surface. However, this image has nothing to do with the song and is only a placeholder.

The song features an 80s style music progression in low quality, with a catching set of lyrics. It has developed a community determined to find it on reddit (r/everyoneknowsthat) with over 10K members, as well as many Discord communities filled with both fans and investigators.

The most commonly accepted lyrics of this snippet are:

"You're counting all the sheep in the sky,
Caught up in your world of lies,
Everyone knows that you've got,
Ulterior motives (Tell me the truth)
Every move shows-" (Audio cuts out from here)

It has been covered widely in videos by various YouTubers, uploading known details about the snippet, as well as "Carl92" who mysteriously disappeared days after uploading the song. It has also gained attention on platforms such as TikTok.

The origin of the singer and the full song remains a mystery to this day.
