The Overly Attached Girlfriend song has become associated with obsessive girlfriends and general hilarity. The parody is sung to Carly Rae Jepsen's summer hit Call Me Maybe, but the lyrics are adjusted to those of an overly clingy girlfriend.

Natarelli defines cool as whatever one finds entertaining, which involves a wide range of trends. This can range from viral videos such as the Overly Attached Girlfriend song or a hilarious advertisement. Depending on one's taste, the definition of cool can vary.
