With what was posted there, it’s enough for me that it originated on 4chan at all. Part of me wants to tell people what kind of place the rickroll came from, but then I’d be hard pressed to explain why on Earth I ever went there. You can’t separate all evolved cultural trends from that place, but there is just no way it’s ever going to sit right with me.
I’m fully aware, this comic is the demonstration of why I do it. I try to get all the white women in my life to also because that inflicts extra psychic damage to a certain kind of person
The writers of Superman comics did something similar to the KKK back in the day
These terms were originally heavily used as heavy right wing 4chan terms, largely circulating in hate circle jerks (which is like 50% of 4chan anyways). Largely associated with millenial incel culture.
Gen Z proceeded to take these terms and parody the fuck out if them, effectively mocking incel culture and turning it into a huge joke. Thus then became mainstream and its largely acted as a very successful humiliation tactic towards the hateful groups.
Think stuff like all the “chad” memes but applying it to silly stuff, like intense cuts of a random chair or a porta-potty, x-pilled terms, etc.
All their terms have been mocked into oblivion, you cant really use the terms without just sounding like a gen z meme now.
An example of when millennials did a similiar thing was mocking the shit out of gen x biker/trucker hyper masculine culture and turning it into an ironic joke. IE the skeleton “my body is a machine that turns x into y” jokes, or ironic memes of edgy skeletons/wolves/etc. Three moons shirt, those things.
10/10, I fucking love how culture can do stuff like this over time lol
I turned my bathroom into a spare bedroom that I now rent out to VRBOmaxxing my life. It more than covers the porta-potty rent since I because porta-potty pilled.
“Maxxing,” “mogging,” “-pilled.” Amongst many others. I’ve even seen this language on billboards and the seepage of sewage into the mainstream is mind-boggling.
Then again those stupid psyop fucks infiltrated Xitter, tumblr, etc. over a decade ago.
Is that where spelling goes to die? People were ‘maxing’ their caffeine decades before whatever vapid influencerati re-coined the badly-written version. I still am not sure it was spelled wrong knowingly.
Leaning into the old because I refuse to use “reclaimed” incel 4chan speak
I witnessed the cesspits from whence that shit fomented, back in the days of gamergate, and will not touch it with a 100 foot pole.

Its just knowing what things mean. The people who talk like this usually have no idea where this shit comes from.
“I was there, 4000 years ago”
Ah, makes sense why this way of speaking feels so gross to me
Its not even being old its just being aware. If only they knew

The comic looks more like a Sharty work, given its use of traced elements.
Ooh interesting, what do you mean by the 4chan speak? Is it the maxxing thing?

Chud-speak is funny to people because of how absurd it is, that’s why it’s penetrated so deeply into mainstream culture
And maybe comparing on social media is so intense and so pervasive it almost deserves a new word.
