It's a term borrowed from film where two characters meet in a strange/cute fashion.
When an anime girl is running fast through the hallway at school and she bumps into the main character and knocks him down, ending up laying on top of him - that's a meet-cute.
EDIT: Ouch. I set my phone down and two people replied before I hit post. Sorry, I wasn't trying to dogpile you.
This is that person's meet-cute with the term meet-cute.
Here they were asking some innocuous question only to be dogpiled with the answer he never knew he needed to know.
Hi VerilyFemme! I'm not sure I know dogpiling is...and I'm not sure I want to.
