Who or what is Jerma?
Who or what is Jerma?
My younger friends all talk about this Jerma person like he's some kind of mythical entity. An eldritch being that cannot be explained for any attempt at explanation inevitably fails.
I am confused. From what I could gather he's like... A streamer? Content creator?
You're viewing a single thread.
/uj he's a twitch streamer who is very... weird? Like, he just tends to phrase things in a weird way, and his community loves to blow it way out of proportion by accusing him of being a psychopath, an alien, a robot, an eldritch extradimensional being from the void, etc.
Best way I've heard someone put it is that a chat member could accuse Jerma of having fake eyebrows, and Jerma would try to claim his eyebrows are real but do such a bad job of it that he makes you believe his eyebrows are actually fake.
/rj no, you have it correct. Jerma is honestly kinda eldritch and inexplicable. He just arrived and he been here ever since. He doesn't even try to hide it anymore, here's an example of him adjusting his face during a stream:
For other people thrown off by the unusual tone tags here:
- /uj = unjerk; to indicate that the statement is not a joke and it is serious
- /rj = rejerk; to indicate that the statement is a joke or not serious
(since when did “jerk” change meaning from “nasty man” to “joke”? is this a misspelling?)
It's a shortening of "circlejerk"
so now mutual masturbation is a joke to you people?!
I know of that phrase, “jerk” here means to masturbate and its mostly used to methaforically describe a positively reinforcing echo chamber, like some sects or online community.
Still doesn't explain me why it means “funny”, in this case
