Usually I’m all for uncanny ugly stuff
But there is something so genuinely annoying about how they look that makes me cringe so hard its actually a visceral reaction. I don’t know if it’s because 90% of them make eye contact at the veiwer (my autism hates eye contact), or that most of them are such mean-spirited characatures (the anti-trans ones in particular) that it immediately disgusts me or what.
It’s like I can smell the intent to manipulate with stereotypes and it immediately rage baits me.
I like the cute ones.
Didn’t even know wojaks could be used like this. I love it
It’s corny as fuck but you do have to look past the bullshit sometimes
Somewhere out there somebody is doing a little art or something with feeling, a little zest, and they’ll be lost forever in the margins but they are there if you look, and it feels nice to find them.
That’s true, I honestly feel like crying sometimes and crying like a kid for parents, everything is just about dicks, sex, and everything a nazi would be interested. Like I have heard cuck one too many times.
It’s not corny. It’s authentic.
I don’t think corny and authenticity are mutually exclusive, it can be both. Corny to me means ‘sincere, a bit cliche’ more than ‘cringe’
I can get behind that
Much better
One must imagine wojak happy
Like infinitely worse rage comics. Even when put to ostensibly leftist used they still evoke it.
Also the eye contact thing is a recent phenomenon imo, this time a decade ago when wojaks were mostly “feels guy” rather than even-lower-effort Ben Garrisson strips, they were usually looking out of frame. Hmm…
That’s why I hate most leftist communities, they’re filled with chad-cuck, wojak, npc, and other 4chan style memes.
Absolutely too many leftist spaces online are waaaay too comfortable with 4ch shit, yeah…
There’s a reason so many are happy to outsource their thinking to a machine after all
We need to bring back old timey image macros
Now you’re on the trolley
usually i have to go to a carnival to hear that kind of slang
People sometimes tell me that my manner of speech can be hard to understand because I frequently channel the ghosts of dead flim-flam men from the early 20th century
bring back :troll:
That one is fine actually. It’s usually the ones that stare at you with their mouths open that gross me out the most.
The worst is the one that has hung itself. If you know, you know. If you don’t, good.
STOP POINTING AT ME IM SHY
(I drew this wojack myself :3)
they disgust me. well done.
I unironically love this idiotic meme and always enjoy variants of two wojakified characters pointing at the thing and soyfacing
I like them, they are all my boyfriend.
STOP SMOOCHING THE WOJAKS
I agree, even if they’re not being utilized for something racist or transphobic they give the air the feeling of something racist or transphobic
I remember in 2016 I was saying that there’s no reason that Pepe had a resurgence and wojak didn’t. Like you should invest in wojak stocks because he’s at least as versatile a meme as Pepe. I was right.
So this is to say that Pepe will have a new renaissance in the near future, my guess is a 2028 election. But also I miss when wojak was the feels guy. Like they’d put him in a RHCP music video with the caption “I don’t ever want to feel that feel I felt that day”
Edit: I lied, there’s an Internet dialect in some parts of live streaming where people use Pepe. He’s invoked with a -ge suffix like weirdge where he’s looking skeptical, susge when he’s suspiciously squinting, wokege for being awoken by a loud noise and deadge when you die in game
I think it’s a combination of them both being unpleasant to look at and the the picture usually making them look like they’re getting all up in your face, they’re meant to recreate the vibe of an unpleasant person with no respect for your personal space.
I like the context hat guy, he accurately captures my emotional state when I require context
I personally really enjoy wojaks, but wojak community is generally filled with far-right content. The best example of it is the soyjak wiki. Not to mention the fact that one of the most popular wojak, the soy wojak has originated from 4chan
TL:DR:
But FWIW it’s always funny to say “soyjak right tho”
Trve
maybe because a lot of them are rotoscope of actual pictures
There’s a bit of bodyshaming (sparse facial hair, baldness, double chins, wrinkles) that gives me the ick, now
is fine for me it’s like, abstract and cartoonish enough, probably sketched without reference
is literally a line drawing of an actual person with features stripped away to make them look more awkward which makes it feel more real/mean spiritedIts because theyre meant to dehumanise large groups of people and somehow became mainstream
