    Well I’m sure it’s been in use for a while, but not in mainstream internet lingo is my point.

    Speaking for myself, I only learned about this term a year or so ago, because I remember looking it up, and I remember thinking: huh, so there’s a word for that now. Since then, I’ve seen it come up several times, almost always in greentext posts like this one.

      We actually used to see this term more often back around the 2010s when 4chan had a bigger presence
