AboutWhat does the meme depict?
Pepe the Frog is a character depicted as an anthropomorphic frog from Matt Furie's comic series 'Boy's Club'. Initially designed as a laid-back, easygoing frog, Pepe has been appropriated as various reaction images on platforms like 4chan. These variations include but are not limited to 'Feels Good Man', 'Sad Frog', 'Angry Pepe', 'Smug Frog', and 'Well Meme'd', each expressing different emotional nuances.
OriginWho did it first?
Pepe the Frog originated from the 2005 comic series 'Boy's Club' by artist Matt Furie, focusing on four adolescent anthropomorphic animal roommates including Pepe. The particular comic strip that catapulted Pepe into meme stardom features him urinating with his pants pulled down to his ankles, accompanied by the phrase 'Feels good man.' This comic strip gained significant attention in early 2008 on the /b/ (random) board on 4chan. The series itself can be found here.[1]
