The image of Doge, an annoying dog, is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

The strong six-pack Doge and the poor little dog appear in various fields. Wherever there is a comparison, you can apply this set of terrier pictures.

According to the existing internet data, the mystery of Muscle Doge came from a Reddit netizen two months ago. He used it to complain about how wasteful his 17-year-old is.

Father at the age of 17: My dear, I am back, how are the children?

When I was 17 years old: I hope I am the cute girl in comic books!

As a result, the muscle Doge and the small waste dog of the old wine in the new bottle quickly merged with the spit culture of the contemporary Internet and the “mourning” culture, from abroad to China.

At this time, seven years have passed since the photo of Kabosu, the prototype of “Doge”, the Shiba Inu, suddenly became popular, and “Doge” is one of the longest-lived stalks on the Internet. Whenever people think that Doge, an annoying dog, is about to pass away, it will come back with a new attitude.

The prototype of Doge, Kabosu, is different. Although the emojis based on it are popular all over the world, it itself repeatedly “dies” in the Internet world.

If he had not met his owner, Atsuko Sato, Kabosu, a small Shiba Inu living in Japan, would have suffered a very tragic fate.

Kabosu was born in 2006. Two years later, it was taken away by the kindergarten teacher Atsuko Sato when he was about to be euthanized by an animal shelter two years later. In 2010, Atsuko Sato uploaded a photo of Kabosu that he took on his blog. Among them was Kabosu’s photo with a smile but a smile.

When it comes to the “Doge” stalk, many people can’t tell which ones are the original ones and which ones belong to the netizen P.

Atsuko Sato naturally did not expect that this photo of Kabosu, the Shiba Inu, would later be spread so quickly on the Internet, and that it would be evolving into such a strange meaning by netizens.

The word “Doge” originally originated from the American web animation “Homestar Runner”, specifically referring to the dog. In 2013, there was a “Boom” accident between 4chan and Reddit, two famous foreign social forums. A group of 4chan netizens put the face P in the photo of Kabosu on various pictures of American elements, and then used these contents named Doge to blow up the Murica section on the Reddit forum overnight.

“Murica” ​​itself is an accented pronunciation of “America”. Users of the Murica section have no specific discussion direction. It used to be a gathering place for ultra-patriots in the United States on Reddit. Today, the content type is even more Complicated. It’s not difficult to imagine that exploding in such a place will inevitably trigger a bloody storm in the Internet world.

No one can tell the outcome of this melee that year, but it magically connects the little Shiba Inu Kabosu with the word “Doge” and makes them popular on two forums. A few months after the explosion incident, the image of Kabosu was everywhere on the Internet. Kabosu’s head was placed on countless characters. The effect was outstanding and there was no sense of violation.

Later, its magical side also played a full role in the hands of netizens. The image of “Doge” has also become a continuous stalk from a photo.

The overwhelming stalk graphics have become a unique Doge style network culture. “Doge” has withstood the test of network memory in an incredible way, which makes it not only enduring on overseas networks, but also traveling abroad. The sea came to the country.

Even after experiencing the impact of other popular online cultures, “Doge” looks completely unrelenting.

Nowadays, there are hundreds of millions of users using Doge emoticons around the world. The owner of Kabosu, the Shiba Inu, once felt terrified, but she also decided to use this opportunity to do something meaningful. With the help of certain institutions, she auctioned many Kabosu-related products and donated the money to the Animal Protection Association.

Kabosu was born in an illegal breeding organization and faced a tragic fate at one time, but many puppies in the world did not have the luck of Kabosu. The owner of Kabosu also hopes to change the status quo through the influence of “Doge”.

However, the greater the reputation, the easier it is to attract strange things. Both “Doge” and its prototype Kabosu itself have experienced inexplicable “death”.

“Doge” is so famous that it is no longer a subculture entertainment. In December 2013, when “Doge” was only on fire for a few months, US congressmen used their Twitter to promote the budget analysis report and used obvious Doge-style sentences and stalks to show humor in this Twitter.

However, this incident caused great resistance to the online media and many netizens at the time. They believed that politics should not be linked to the online culture used by these netizens. Therefore, they criticized members of Congress for their actions, saying that their actions weakened “Doge” itself is entertaining. Some media even directly gave Doge a “death notice”.

“This cool annual meme has been declared dead forever”

Obviously, the development of Internet culture is not predictable by the media. The vitality of “Doge” is tenacious. Not only has it not disappeared, it has become more popular because of the official “endorsement”. After that, the influence of “Doge” reached its peak. Until 2016, “Doge” was still selected as Tumblr’s ten most popular meme of the year.

However, “Doge” has been declared “dead” in the Internet world more than this time. The difference from the above is that more people are keen to give “Doge” prototype Kabosu “life and death”.

Since “Doge” became popular, some netizens have come out to follow Kabosu from time to time, so the forum often asks: “Doge’s prototype is dead?”.

Interestingly, those who follow Kabosu’s master’s social account often ask questions about Kabosu’s life when they cannot see Kabosu’s photos for a period of time.

As a result, these questions will appear in forums and other places every time, and will soon be gradually buried as the owner of Kabosu releases Shiba Inu’s photos again.

Until March 2017, news of Kabosu’s death came again. This time at first glance, it seems more real than ever. Foreign social media reports that the “Doge” prototype has passed away, and even posted the so-called owner’s obituary. The domestic marketing account is even more scrambling to use “My emoji passed away.” “Sad titles like this attract people’s attention.

Now the master of Kabosu finally couldn’t bear it. She publicly refuted the rumors on Twitter, saying that Kabosu is still alive, so everyone can rest assured.

The truth of the matter left the majority of netizens speechless. The little Shiba Inu who really passed away was called Beideng, and it was also one of the most famous Internet celebrity dogs in the world. It is well-known in China because its photos are used as emojis and avatars by many people.

Beideng passed away on February 17, but this information was reported by many media around April Fools’ Day. Part of the media, not only intended to attract attention, but did not know whether it was intentional or unintentional, to confuse the identities of the two dogs, which led to Kabosu being sentenced to “death” again in the online world.

Perhaps the enduring image of “Doge” has caused many unidentified netizens to have an illusion about the time in the real world. After learning about Kabosu’s recent situation, they often cannot help feeling “it is still there!”, And this feeling may be due to the constant flow of false news like “Doge prototype passed away.”

Not long ago, the British internet celebrity cat Bob passed away. This news once appeared on Weibo hot search. Netizens felt very sorry for the departure of this legendary cat, and they also thought of those who were still alive. Internet celebrity pets.

Kabosu was naturally mentioned again. At this time, it really affects the hearts of netizens, because Kabosu is 14 years old this year, which is equivalent to the age of human beings in their 70s. It can be said to be a dying year. Judging from the photos on the host’s social media, Kabosu seems to be all right, but obviously lacks the look of his youth.

The owner of Kabosu once said that in her eyes Kabosu is a mature and well-behaved Shiba Inu, not a dog Doge who is popular on the Internet and looks mischievous and funny. It is a pity that even if Kabosu lives a long and healthy life under the care of the owner, it will never be possible to live the life of a human being. “Doge” may continue to circulate on the Internet, but netizens will eventually usher in the day Kabosu leaves the world.

There is a buzzword on the Internet in China called “dog head saves life”, which is also a derivative of the “Doge” emoji package. Some netizens have ridiculed Kabosu, it is born with “dog head to save life”, naturally will live longer.

I hope Kabosu can really live a good life under the aura of “dog head saves his life”.
