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?

    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?)

        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
