The full, more emphatic version of "And They Were Roommates," used to react with exaggerated excitement to an implied romantic or intimate connection between two characters sharing a living space.

REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE

"The show introduced two rivals sharing a dorm room, oh my god, they were roommates."

LORE & ORIGIN

Became a widely spread internet catchphrase in the mid-2010s, riffing on fandom shipping culture's tendency to read romantic subtext into any two characters living together, eventually becoming its own standalone meme format.
