Taylor Swift's recent release of Red (Taylor's Version) — specifically, the 10-minute version of "All Too Well" — has a lot of people talking about a certain artifact from the singer's past: a scarf she wore during her relationship with Jake Gyllenhaal, who's widely speculated to be the subject of the song.
The scarf she sings about has made several appearances during the Red (Taylor's Version) era — All Too Well (The Short Film), the "I Bet You Think About Me" music video, and Taylor's merch store.
And, while "All Too Well" is a crying-in-the-shower kind of ballad, the response to all the scarf hoopla has been hilarious.
So, here are 24 of the best jokes about Taylor's scarf:
1. The queen of Twitter has spoken:
It does not belong to you. Box it up and I will pay the cost of postage, Jake.
2. This parallel:
Taylor giving the bride a scarf is a bit like Joe Jonas meeting Sophie Turner and finding out she's a huge Taylor Swift fan.
3. Taylor's SNL appearance made the news on Weekend Update:
4. I don't think someone with a million dollar couch needs a free scarf, though:
Was Jake Gyllenhaal bad to Taylor Swift? Yes. Can we blame him for wanting a free scarf, in this economy? I do not think so.
5. Truer words have never been spoken:
taylor swift's scarf walked so her cardigan could run
6. I mean, we all saw All Too Well (The Short Film):
7. It was a Gucci scarf, to be fair:
8. Honestly, nothing should surprise us at this point:
9. Jake's sister could break the internet with a single scarfed-up selfie:
10. The sequel we didn't know we needed:
11. Seriously, she deserves it:
12. Don't pretend this scarf is new news:
13. It's all I can think about too:
14. She can have one of my scarves, it's no big deal:
THIS IS SO FUCKING SAD @taylorswift13 PLEASE MA'AM ALLOW ME TO BUY YOU A NEW SCARF #AllTooWellTheShortFilm
15. Mr. Tumnus, you better give that back:
Is that Taylor Swifts scarf?
16. Okay eBay, put your money where your mouth is and create a policy preventing him from selling the OG scarf:
Hey Jake Gyllenhaal, we know all too well how much you love scarves! How about owning your own so you don’t have to keep @taylorswift13's? This one here’s nice, if not, we’ve got 242,666 other listings to choose from? 😉🧣
17. Good for her:
taylor swift willfully ruining jake gyllenhaal’s year because of a three month relationship and a stolen scarf
18. If someone stole my expensive scarf, I'd be mad too:
Nobody: Taylor Swift coming for Jake Gyllenhaal 10 years after the fact because he kept her scarf:
19. An important question:
What is Joe Biden’s plan to get Taylor Swift her scarf back
20. The power:
21. Blake and Ryan could solve this whole mess:
So jake gyllenhaal and ryan reynolds are friends, taylor swift and jake dated, ryan is married to blake lively, ryan and blake are good friends of taylor. They could definitely get her scarf back.
22. Oh look, another Easter egg:
all I can think about is that little plastic red tag in the scarf at the end of All Too Well #TaylorSwift
23. The role of a lifetime:
sarah paulson to play taylor swift when they do a season of american crime story about the stolen scarf
24. And finally:
Taylor Swift calling Joe Alwyn after amassing an army of Swifties ready to take over the world for a red scarf and a crumpled piece of paper
