Marvel Heroes. When you hit max level with a character you could reset back to level one and do it again, your name would be a different color as a reward. The final reset, yellow username text, was called cosmic and was way slower to level. The grind led to it becoming something of an in-joke in the thread, people grinding it up and advocating that others do the same. It's basically a vanity emote of the OP.

On a related note, the doom toot avatar's name comes from the name of the company that made the game. :gaz:

Phone posting so I’ll be brief. That smilie was created as a joke because we had an insane millionaire who would get drunk and post all the time in the anime chat thread. There is a single frame where it says “gently caress off Dilbert you suck” because the insane guy’s name was dilbert, obviously. I was against this smile being made just btw.

That's Jeff Probst, host of Survivor. It's a reference to when someone unexpectedly gets voted out by secret planning when they (and usually the audience) weren't expecting it - being blindsided, if you will.

It's a Destiny player being astounded that his potentially good find turned out to be poo poo, because Bungie had some, uh, creative ideas about how loot drops should work in their first attempt at an RPG.

I'm not sure it's a character with a name, it looks like a psyduck playing as a warlock.

It was made for one of the USPolitics threads in D&D back when Boehner was Speaker; the last year of his term was marked by his being completely unable to control the factions in the GOP and constantly getting dunked on by his party and unable to push any legislation because one group of another would always stop him from being able to get a majority of his party behind it. Thus, he was always a sad orange.

I mean, it’s what it’s labeled as: it’s brain worms, the slang term for when someone who used to seem normal has let their conspiracy fantasies explode out into the rest of their life.

Lardroom was a nonsense comic about a disfigured mother and child just saying lardroom over and over. The sniper appears to have their one eyed features, and was portmanteau'd into a snipe smiley for some reason.

Collateral Damage posted:

"Ese" means, literally "that" (and also S). I had never heard the term here in Spain, but apparently it is used in some EEUU parts as an abbreviature of "ese tio/vato" = "that guy". Probably because in Spanish you can sometimes omit the subject, so "mira ese tio" (look at that guy) can also be correctly said "mira ese" (look at that (guy)) and from that you can get the slang (technically incorrect) usage where "ese" becomes the whole word "¿qué onda, ese?".

So, yeah, it may be referring to that, probably parodying the "mexican stereotype".
