On January 21st, 2020, Instagram user posted a Yes Chad-type meme in which a female Wojak in a red sweater tells a male Wojak that it is time for his dick flattening (shown below, left). Most popular comic variations featuring Doomer Girl are "You Wanna Go Out Sometimes?," "Do You Like X?," Doomer Though Chains and "Wanna Have Sex?". The character has been appeared in a number of Wojak Comics, interacting with Doomer, Trad Girl and other characters. Doomer Girlĭoomer Girl or Doomerette is a female Wojak-Oomer character with black hair and dark eyes wearing a black sweatshirt and a choker. However, the formula of the original format did not change until early January 2020 when Doomer Girl was introduced, with more variations spawning in the following months. In the second half of 2019, Yes Chad became one of the most dominant meme formats online, with mememakers introducing new characters into the format, most notably Trad Girl, Daddy's Girl and Mommy E- Thot. The format received notable spread on /pol/ starting in December 2016. On December 2nd, 2016, an anonymous 4chan user posted an image of people of Nordic and Mediterranian subraces meant to demonstrate the superiority of the latter over the former to /pol/ board (shown below).

Nordic / Mediterranean refers to a series of memes in which various races, sub-races, and nationalities, primarily Nordic and Mediterranean, are compared to each other through use of archetypal exploitable images. Starting in 2018, Wojak spawned multiple subvariations such as 30-Year-Old Boomer, Doomer, Coomer and other Oomer Wojaks. The image, which became known as “Wojak’s face," spread to other international image boards, including the Italian Pastachan and the Russian Dobrochan. It is often used as a reaction image to represent feelings such as melancholy, regret or loneliness.Īccording to "ask me anything" (AMA) thread on Reddit by a user claiming to be Krautchan user Wojak, the bald man illustration was originally discovered on the imageboard vichan with the filename "twarz.jpg." The image was subsequently popularized as a reaction image after Wojak submitted it to the German language image board Krautchan in May 2010. Wojak, also known as Feels Guy, is an MS Paint illustration of a bald man with a sad expression on his face. Although Nordic / Mediterranean has a different origin from other Wojak memes, it currently comprises an essential part of Wojak Comics. Wojak Comics stem from Wojak and Nordic / Mediterranean meme formats. In the following weeks, more variations of the meme appeared on Twitter, 4chan, Reddit and other platforms, with the original image used both as a reaction and an exploitable. The tweet gained over 230 retweets and 930 likes in one month.

On August 1st, 2019, Twitter user posted an image combining an instance of the Grayons meme and a variation of Nordic / Mediterranean exploitable (shown below). While separate instances of memes based on interactions between Wojak characters existed before, such as NPC Wojak comics, the Wojak Comics trend started with the arrival of Yes Chad format in August 2019.
