Loni Love Shares Hilarious Spice-Themed Post That Has Everyone Talking

Herbs are an absolute must in the kitchen! Just some days ago, Loni posted this epic and utterly viral post about thyme. And I’m not referring to the abstract concept of time; it’s actually the herb-they really cook with it! The comedian and TV personality got everyone cracking up over that funny picture based on the classic Mary J. Blige song, ‘Be Without You.’

In the picture are two hands covered with dried thyme leaves, one of them holding an empty spice jar labeled “Thyme Leaves.” It’s a pun because the hands are literally “covered in thyme,” and the absurdity makes the whole phenomenon fun. Loni posted it with a half-exasperated, half-amused caption, tagging Clint Coley and DJ D-Nice and throwing in some crying-laughing emojis for a dose of chaotic comedy.

Like clockwork, the responses came rolling in. One laughed out loud and admitted literally laughing aloud. Another took the musical reference further, saying that although Rose Royce originally performed the song, it is Mary J. Blige‘s version that people really remember, but now all they’re about is thyme. Another commented that whoever made it clearly “had too much time on their hands,” which, by the way, is the perfect pun in light of the overload of thyme.

Some couldn’t resist and actually sang along a little with lyrics from the track: “Since you been away boy,” which shows that the joke hit home. Others tagged their friends to turn it into an inside joke. One even thanked Loni for the reference so they “didn’t have to feel slow,” which is so honest?

The laughter is so relatable, honestly. A fellow just admitted sending it to their significant other because, why not? If you’re gonna be ridiculous, drag your partner into it.

Loni Love has always managed to mix pop culture with everyday humor, and this post is no exception. It’s goofy, it’s unexpected, and it’s what social media was made for-if you like Mary J. Blige or just someone who enjoys cooking or puns, this one’s for you.
