White House press secretary Sean Spicer showed up at his Friday press briefing wearing an upside-down American flag pin on his lapel.

The White House press corps immediately brought it to his attention.

Spicer, however, managed to fix the pin in the second try.

But that did not seem to be enough, wrote the Washington Post, as the “Internet lost its mind.”

Internet users were wondering aloud whether it was a faux pas, or a real cry for help.

“Sees Sean Spicer wore his flag pin upside down during a press conference. Grabs popcorn, runs to Twitter,” wrote a Twitter user.

“Is Spicer’s upside down flag lapel pin a distress signal?” another person wrote on Twitter. “Blink twice if you need help, Sean.”
