Don’t know if you’ve seen it in your corner of the internet yet, but 潮汕如姨 is blowing mine up with her videos singing Ava Max and Taylor Swift, prancing around gardens in 汕头 😂
How do soundalikes get parsed in Chinese? I took some Mandarin in college and while wu3er2 isn't that much of a stretch for wo3ai2, I remember zero being ling2 and that's pretty different from ni3...
I have wondered this for ages too! In my mine, 21st of May works so much better for that pun, (wu er yi) (wo ai ni). At least it rhymes, even if it's not the same! 520 makes no sense to me at all either

Might not be ni3, but nin2 (您).
