About

Dude, Leave Some For the Rest Of Us or Mom, He's Taking Every Single One is a series of memes based on a video by TikToker @thatmartinkid (Martin) in which he Duets a diver scraping sea urchins off a rock and pretends to complain to his mom that the diver is taking them all, pleading, "Dude, leave some for the rest of us." The video was uploaded to TikTok in mid-September 2022 and went viral as the subject of edits on Instagram Reels in April 2026. The edits typically alter the look of Martin and the content he is reacting to, including changing Martin into an animal, like a sheep.
