And while someone claimed to have made them similar on purpose, it's impossible to know if that is the case. Most recently, someone on Twitter posted a close-up of the Chad meme's head, next to a picture of the State of Chad, noticing a similarity between the two. However, that doesn't stop people from trying. No one actually knows who created the first Chad meme, at least the first version of him that we are most familiar with, and while people have tried to claim ownership over the years, there is very little proof that can be offered to confirm who the real creator is.
In 2015, a number of Tumblr pages and Subreddits began to capitalize on the success of the meme, oftentimes posting to boards like r/foreveralone and r/justneckbeardthings, usually bemoaning how little interest they received from women.īut it wasn't until 2017, when a Microsoft paint drawing appeared on 4chan's rk9 board depicting the Virgin and Chad together, that we had our first officially recognized Chad meme. Incels, or rather men who labeled themself as such, were self-appointed virgins who dubbed themselves "involuntary celibates" and saw themselves in a spiritual war with their more successful Chad counterparts. The rise of the Chad meme coincided with the rise of the incel community. However, it wasn't until 2013, when the term Chad Thundercock was coined by an Urban Dictionary user, who posted an entry describing Chads as college-aged men who identify as "alpha males." In the late 1990s, the term had already been synonymous with 'bro culture' in subgroups outside the Chicago area, and in 2006 received its first entry on Urban Dictionary, used to describe men who, "go (sic) to the bar to pick up chicks." The origin of the term Chad, as it refers to macho dudes who pump iron and walk around with their asses on their fronts, predates its usage online by nearly a decade. The origin of the Chad meme isn't that glorious and can be traced to the hairy drain of the internet, a little site known as 4chan, specifically the RK9 board (robot9000). So in honor of doing some soul searching, we're taking the time to explain what exactly the Chad meme is, where he came from and where he's going. You can either be a sex-less virgin loser, who walks without confidence and wears dark colors to blend into crowds, or you can be Chad Thundercock, a himbo-esque man who gets laid more than he deserves and lives life on his own terms.
There are only two types of men in this world, or that's what 4chan would have you believe.
