So how does D’Arcy feel about spawning all those hilarious negroni sbagliato memes?
“I feel so embarrassed,” D’Arcy admitted in an interview with the New York Times. “Because in those interviews, when we’ve been at it for six hours, I’m honestly only trying to make Olivia [Cooke] laugh.”

Meanwhile, D’Arcy also pointed out they weren’t quite sure how to explain the phenomenon to their mother.
“I keep thinking I should tell my mum that I’ve become a meme in the hope that she’ll be happy for me, but I’d have to explain what a meme is, and I’ve decided it’s too much effort,” they quipped.
