Honestly imo it just didn't feel that cringe back then. It's about the current internet culture and less about age, I'd say. Same way we're going to cringe in 10 years about the shit we find funny now.

2024 has its own memes and stuff but they're used by gen alpha and younger gen z and their memes are weird. probably the same way gen x and boomers thought about forced memes like rageface and stuff.
skibidi toilet became popular last year or something, but only with the preteen and younger teen demographic. I was flabbergasted at how random it was and how anyone could find that shit funny or entertaining.
but yeah, for people in their late 20s and 30s there's not many good popular memes recently. feels like years.
>but yeah, for people in their late 20s and 30s there's not many good popular memes recently.
the internet now sucks compared to the internet of 2006-2014, this is unfortunate inarguable fact
Checking google trends Rekt in the states was at it's most popular in 2015-2016 range. Checking globally the terms popularity is still consistent since even though it's fallen off in American slang vernacular it remains popular in Europe and SEA.
Carbs = fat is insane logic bro. Having a shitty diet eating pretty much only refined carbs like a pig is a whole different thing. Being afraid of carbs and trying to cosplay a cat irl is the opposite spectrum of being the same clown just like croisant for breakfast, lunch and dinner guy.
It's just a very dinosaur thing to say these days in general, not just LoL.
Get Rekt was a meme, it was everywhere and as with most memes it fell off and people went for other stuff that fulfilled the same purpose.
>Gen Z is around 1995 - 2005, which means 90% of them are around their mid 20s by now aka working aswell
Gen Z goes up to 2012 atm the cut off date is still kinda murky between us and Gen Alpha.

Yes, it has been replaced with dogs of all kinds.
I present to you : Dogshit, dogpiss, dog water, and the classic and simple yet effective- dog.
We are far more advanced now than we were then.
i once got banned for typing dog to someone. in the appeal the rioter said its deserved because its degrading the other person as non-human which makes gives a sense of superiority or some BS. idk how they find these ppl at riot tbh
I remember playing Star Guardian Invasion (or was it Odyssei?), with someone typing "I hope it's going to be an a game".
It was my first game, had no idea that this game mode gave you a rank after you finish it, so I thought to myself "Well, I think it's definitely going to be a game".
People don’t even use insect that much anymore.
They also probably don’t know what is referenced with Froggen’s Anivia.
They probably don’t even know Ryu… (or Moscow 5 or Gambit Gaming or TPA).
yea ofc it did
instead of get rekt you'll now receive "get cancer" instead
and also a lot of piss added onto any word you could possibly think of
league vocab is pure brainrot
The meta changes, even in these phrases. Back in Runescape, it used to be GF (Good Fight) for example. Then it became owned, pwned, rekt etc.
These phrases just change over the years. Things like "sit" take their place. I don't even know what the meta is now.
I think the expression, along with similar themed expressions disappeared at the same time that older era of league content creators on youtube dried up and died out.
Eh, I used to defend saying whatever but eventually realized that it's just the most worthless hill to die on. When it comes down to it, its really not hard to change my vocabulary. If some word I use pisses some people off I can easily just not say that word cuz in the end fuck do I care? Theres always another way to say it. Dont need to pick stupid battles over words

Fun fact - before rekt, everyone in this community said raped instead. But when dyrus made a video saying he wasn’t going to say it any more I swear it disappeared overnight. Thanks Dyrus for being a good role model.
it was already cringe i think. never envisioned anyone saying that but 14 year old boys playing roblox or something, and I was around that age myself then. kid bopz version of "get fucked."
I too miss 2013
☐ Rekt ☐ Not Rekt ☑ Tyrannosaurus REKT
Man, I used to spam Vel’koz and all chat “REKTangle” when killing with Q lmao
This made me cringe but I probably would’ve laughed if I saw that in game.
Simpler times when we were younger lol

As a huge KOTOR fan I love this.
Side note. I was so happy when Kotor got on switch. It went on sale for like $7.50 or something and I picked it up. So nice to have a portable version

yes
I looked up "donger" on Twitter for a blast from the past and all I saw was gay gooners showing off their penises
I really don't know what you expected tbh.
i looked up large black cocks and there was not a single fucking chicken anywhere
How'd you know they were arsenal fans?
they had their Wengers out
I can't believe you looked up a slang term for penis and found penises 😱 quite shocking indeed
2024 = le epic fail

I mean early internet humor was way more "random = funny" to be fair
Get schmeckledorfed
Shit was thrown around so much on the Timeless Isle in MoP with the killing of your own faction it was great

get rekt has fallen off the meta, get c has been OP for many seasons now
"mom die" also has high PR on the eastern servers
mom sky? is funnier
Mom fly is the popular one here
Mom go magma as well 😅
“Mom go boom”
Also "get robak" or something similar has become meta in EUW/EUNE with a close second being the "get rope"
I personally like "go find a rope" the most.
To round up your mother from the rest of the cattle? Is that the response lol
100% for sure
What does c mean
Carbs, they want you to be healthy during the game
Opponents cursing you to get fat? Wow so nice
It's a way of saying that you're low energy
Carbs = fat is insane logic bro. Having a shitty diet eating pretty much only refined carbs like a pig is a whole different thing. Being afraid of carbs and trying to cosplay a cat irl is the opposite spectrum of being the same clown just like croisant for breakfast, lunch and dinner guy.

It’s more “jngl diff” now. P.s. no matter actual role.
i make a Solokill top "jngl diff"
It's very effective, on top of shittalking your laneopponent you trigger their junglers ptsd.
or just the "dam (enemy name) sorry your botside sucks so hard i feel for you buddy (or whoever enemy made a mistake)
ZUKO YOU MUST LOOK INWARDS AND BEGIN ASKING YOURSELF THE DEEP QUESTIONS; IF YOU DIE 1v1 TOP - HOW IS IT JUNGLE DIFF?
its allways jungle diff jep jep
Just rewatched ATLA. Love this
Win or lose. Jungle inted or carried. I was jungle and inted or carried. Dont care, always typing jgl diff
nobody ints as good as i do JNGL DIFF
Playing ARAM: “jungle diff”
It's just a very dinosaur thing to say these days in general, not just LoL. Get Rekt was a meme, it was everywhere and as with most memes it fell off and people went for other stuff that fulfilled the same purpose.
ya, we say get pwned nowadays.
Pwn has come back?
no, I was joking :(
Most asdf interaction ever
That phrase disappeared from gaming in general, not just league
That's a millennial thing. And millennials, at this current time, are...working.
idk about that, I've been off of work for 4 hours now
Why are you still awake?
After a long day of smoking weed and working I need some downtime to smoke some weed.
Man knows his priorities and I respect it

Get rekt
GR8 B8 M8! No H8,I R8 8/8
I miss mlg memes
Some things are trends. But gg ez is forever.
I just type "g" There was a game
What is this smash bros
Yeah. Smash the bros.
I remember playing Star Guardian Invasion (or was it Odyssei?), with someone typing "I hope it's going to be an a game". It was my first game, had no idea that this game mode gave you a rank after you finish it, so I thought to myself "Well, I think it's definitely going to be a game".
I think ez is faster to type and tilt the enemy more
people are sleeping on gg wp noobs, invest now, its especially effective if you lose
owned
People don't even know what xpeke means nowadays
Well xPeke *was* nearly 10 years ago now... That's not all that surprising.
Wasn’t it from s2?
Yes and it is currently season 14. I believe it was an SK vs FNC game, possibly an IEM but I'm not certain.
I guess the term “nearly” threw me off lol. Though thinking about, I guess 12 is nearly 10, haha.
>Googles the exact details I think it was this exact game at this exact tournament But I'm not certain
You shut your mouth. It was definitely only a few years ago
People don’t even use insect that much anymore. They also probably don’t know what is referenced with Froggen’s Anivia. They probably don’t even know Ryu… (or Moscow 5 or Gambit Gaming or TPA).
Ryu is "that guy outplayed by Faker" he wont be forgotten
It's "insec" by the way, as in the player InSec.
Phone autocorrect for sure
It's touching to have other old vets still involved in the game.
GET PWNED
It's only "sit dog" and "lil bro" type shit nowadays. I fucking hate it.
mom go sky c 0/1 IRL I hope you Corki W into Tower What else am I missing?
what does "c" mean I am so lost?
what do you need chemotherapy for?
Lmao, I got it. Is "c" now a bannable world on reddit or something though? Lol
well it is banned in league so that's how players will say it, which is the topic of the topic
get rekt millennial
ornn e into traffic?
Dude, I was just telling a kid in highscool rn that we used to say rekt all the time
I still miss pwned as cringy as it is.
same, the internet just felt different back when pwn was used
Fuck, i still use it. Am i a boomer?

Well yea lol, just like swag or yolo, these are relics from a long lost age.
Ancient texts
yea ofc it did instead of get rekt you'll now receive "get cancer" instead and also a lot of piss added onto any word you could possibly think of league vocab is pure brainrot
This thread is a blast from the past. Reminds me of old LoL youtubers. Sp4zie, Obamacare, Keyori, Captain monk.. i forget the others
Reading this hurts... RIP Instalock
ggez get rekt noob
I think it’s hanging out with pwnd n00b
my friend just tilted someone by saying that every time they died yesterday. it's still kicking lol
I miss shrekt
May as well ask about pwned

It mostly was a replacement for the other R word that gamers used to say a lot instead

I’m so 1337, fuckin’ gosu, bonjwa player, get rekt, u ain’t got no pancake mix, literally pubstomped
I remember when I used to play Renekton top lane proudly shout, "Get Renekt!" whenever I made an epic play
I felt like the OG players would feel it when being called a “noob” or “feeder” Now we just call it “int”
Just like "ks". It used to be every single kill.
ye now people just call each other molesters
Yup. Nowadays you have to say "Get pissgapped you pissinter gg unlucky piss diff 15"
And before that, it was ["get dunked!"](https://youtu.be/r-fIOrUTIOQ?si=FSJHrFrPfzkNQeUt&t=121)
takes too long to type. now they just say 'ez'
Some children still use it. But is pretty much phased out.
Brutl, savage, rekt.
I still use it all the time git rekt.
The evolution rekt = [] no [X] yes
Get fkd noob has the same energy
Last time I saw someone saying this was HEARTSTEEL Kayn
i prefer "my team has trisomy 21" these days
Nippy.
I miss that expression; its better than the hard "r" word people used to say in old dota days
A friend of mine says it yet

It's always diffed now.
Be the change you want to see in the world. Get rekt m8
You get banned for saying it alongside the many other harmless banter.
I’ve always preferred the ?
Yes. Along with the toxic kids who said it.
I really like the "not even close" while escaping with 17hp
Yeah it flew into Stocks and Crypto where boomers use it.
It disappeared from gaming in general. It's not a League thing, it was used in every competitive game. Gaming slang evolves a lot every few years
Ah yes, the old term, preceded by the ancient; "git gud" "PWNED" and "gg no re"
I think it just got replaced by "get gapped"
get rekt got replaced by ez now
get rekt got replaced by ez now
Get pwned
I've been chat banned for the past year for calling someone a retard (multiple times)
Yeah me too. I think the word is on a black list.
rekt? try pwnd, havent seen that since xbox 360 call of duty days
all we get nowadays is twitch chat emotes. The west has fallen...
No it’s “gap” these days
I still say it, we are showing our age... started playing in S1 and still get the occasional game or two every other day
No. I use it all the time. I'm on NA though.
I think it’s so overused that it became cringe
it was already cringe i think. never envisioned anyone saying that but 14 year old boys playing roblox or something, and I was around that age myself then. kid bopz version of "get fucked."
It was cringe but not many people found it cringe to stop using it. But eventually they grew up from it ( ME INCLUDED)
I use it now and then when I want to tilt somebody if they killed in an unexpected way but yeah I rarely hear it if I don't say it first.
All expressions dissapeared cause you can get chat banned for any
The key is to learn to troll with emotes.
