Looney Toons Painted Tunnel On A Wall Gag

Looney Toons Painted Tunnel On A Wall Gagrefers to an oft-referenced visual joke from the animated series Looney Toons. In "Road Runner" shorts, Wile E. Coyote would frequently attempt to catch Road Runner by painting a tunnel onto the side of a mountain so that the illusion would make Road Runner crash. However, Road Runner would somehow run through the painted tunnel, with Wile E. Coyote then attempting to run through the tunnel himself and crash. The gag became a common reference on Twitterduring the 2010s and early 2020s, usually to mock people prone to exaggerating damaging stories or telling lies about other groups of people.
