What is LUL? [A Trip Down Meme-ory Lane]

  • Since its inception, Twitch has been responsible for creating moments that we’ll remember forever.
    Drama, sadness and hype all abound in the broadcasted lives of esports pros, streamers and even special one-offs like Twitch Presents. Kappa dominates sarcasm, PogChamp and TriHard bring the hype and BibleThump harnesses our sorrow. However, when it comes to humor - a staple of Twitch - no emote dominates so completely as LUL.

      Indeed he will be missed. Quite alot of people think that way. For a reason as well.
      But you have to think: he will actually literally not be forgotten as long as this LUL exists. I think for a content creator... thats pretty awesome.

      He is missed. And I listen to, or watch cooptional from a different angle. I see what he made living on. Obviously it won't be the same as it was while he was there. But its keeping the spirit of his creative ideas going. And as rigid and stalwart as he was, I don't think he'd be (too) disappointed with where it is now.

If someone painted a portrait or sculpted a statue, the pieces of art would be the artists property, not whoever features in said art, it’s no different to photography.
