Probably the last thing anyone would think of when they think of phlegm is "sex symbol."

Or is it?

Somehow against all odds Mucinex's mascot Mr. Mucus has become a sex symbol on Instagram.

On their Instagram account, the cartoon blob isn't shown. Instead, photos are posted of someone in a costume with a grimace and a blank stare.

While the costume itself isn't sexy, people are still flocking to the comments section to hit on whomever is inside the green mucus in flannel and jeans.

oh myyy GIF Giphy

In one video, Mr. Mucus acts out his resolutions.

"In 2023, I’m living my sickest life! Here are my Flu Year’s Resolutions."

In another video Mr. Mucus can be seen dancing by a bonfire.

Apparently, some people think...

...that's hot.

The only thing that might be funnier are the comments.


People were astonished by the Instagram love for Mr. Mucus.









The United Kingdom based company that makes Mucinex, Reckitt Benckiser, hasn't yet commented on the sudden swooning over their mascot.

Until then, lets all enjoy the reactions to this lovable mucus blob.

New 'Stranger Things' Documentary Has Fans Convinced That There's Still Another Episode Coming

Following that epic conclusion of Stranger Things, fans barely had time to mourn character deaths, celebrate long-awaited reunions, and process the (spoiler alert) apparent end of Vecna before the discourse spiraled straight back into Hawkins-level chaos.

The series finale, which dropped on New Year’s Eve, delivered spectacle, sentiment, and something that looked a lot like finality. It also left a sizable portion of the fandom unconvinced that this is truly the end of the Upside Down. For a show built on hidden monsters, secret labs, and things not being what they seem, disbelief may be the most on-theme reaction of all.

Tucker Carlson Dragged After Offering Truly Bonkers Theory For Why Trump Captured NicolĂĄs Maduro

Former Fox News host turned far-right podcaster Tucker Carlson raised eyebrows after he claimed that President Donald Trump captured Venezuelan dictator NicolĂĄs Maduro in order to bring same-sex marriage to the people of a country now in a dangerous state of flux after the U.S. invaded.

Weirdly, he claimed “pro-gay forces” were secretly driving regime change, pointing to Nobel Peace Prize recipient and opposition leader María Corina Machado's support for same-sex marriage. He suggested this is proof that "globo homo," his term for progressive liberal elites, are hard at work.
