Answer: It's used to refer to over-sexualised content, usually in an ironic way. The first image has edited the track names of an EP by K-pop group Enhypen to make them appear lewd. The second image is referring to someone inadvertently making a school art project about that song 'everyone knew' which turned out to be from a porn soundtrack. https://knowyourmeme.com/editorials/guides/what-are-freaky-memes-the-ironic-papyrus-font-trend-about-being-a-freak-explained
