About Pepe the Frog

The comic Boy’s Club was originally created in 2005 using Microsoft Paint. Later in 2008, a certain comic that featured Pepe was posted to 4chan and it quickly took off. While Pepe the Frog was mostly known for the “Feels good man” catchphrase, he eventually became known for the opposite reaction of “Feels bad man.” After a few variations of Pepe the Frog Tumblr and Instagram accounts, the /r/pepethefrog subreddit was created on October 25 which featured the anthropomorphic frog meme.

A few notable uses of the frog character was when Katy Perry and Nicki Minaj both featured the frog meme on their social media account. They were initially well received by their fans. One instance where it wasn’t as well received was when Donald Trump used it. Pepe’s creator, Matt Furie, has since publicly expressed his dismay at Pepe the Frog being used as a hate symbol. Pepe’s popularity has quickly grown throughout the world through the internet.
