Never trust your siblings to keep your embarrassing pictures under wraps. Never.
What's a sister to do when she finds an embarrassing photo of her beloved brother? Naturally, she must use her Photoshop skills to immortalize her precious kin as a meme.
Eriana Torretti, who goes by yetitorretti on Reddit, was just taking some harmless photos for her boyfriend's family in July 2013. "After countless tries, he gave up trying to get the jumping shot ... but I was relentless. After about 15-20 tries, we finally got the shot. Tommy's jump was a little odd, but we had a laugh about it and moved on," Torretti told Mashable.

This harmless incident turned into a tempting opportunity for Tommy's sister Kaylee, who tried her hand at Photoshop seven months later by using her brother's ridiculous pose. "It all started with the alien abduction one, and then people made suggestions or she just thought of more herself. And the meme was born," said Eriana Torretti, who then took the photos and shared them on Reddit and Imgur.
But Tommy isn't mad about his sudden Internet fame. In fact, he's quite pleased with how they turned out, according to Torretti. If only all sibling teasing could be this clever.
