Everybody loves the Guardians of the Galaxy‘s Groot, so it’s no surprise to see the Marvel character currently trending on Twitter. While some fans are a bit confused as to why the character is a hot topic on the social media site today, it appears the trend has nothing to do with the highly-anticipated Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3.

This appears to have gained some traction and now the Marvel character is also getting some love on Twitter.
