"this meme character"!

hiho~ Hello everyone, I am Zhiqi!

A lot of people on the Internet must have seen him

like this one. The person who

posted the post wanted to ask for a photo with a beautiful photo

Er Ze Will replied directly below,

"Because you are eating shampoo."

has allowed him to be followed by 1.6 million people on Facebook

, and even because it is so popular,

it has attracted many people to imitate Like

this short video introducing Xavier, there are at least five Xavier in the comments

, and some people make memes

to mock this phenomenon

, but you know what?

In fact, Xavier himself may be a counterfeit

, and there

are nearly 30,000 people boycotting him on American forums. Who is the protagonist of this meme?

What's the story behind it?

Let us discuss and see today!

But before we get into today's discussion,

let's do business for a while!

【Actually, his name is Pakaru? ]

Xavier first became popular on Twitter.

His name at the time was "Pakalu Papito"

. For the sake of convenience,

we will call him Pakalu in the future

. According to Pakalu's self-introduction

, he is a man living in the United States Indians in

Minnesota

have been making puns and negative energy jokes since July 2013,

like this one: "When your face is the biggest problem"

"So how do you deal with your problems?"

He intentionally With Face, the noun "face"

can also be used as a verb "face"

to make a pun.

In addition , he often said some self-deprecating jokes

, such as: "My mother said that everyone has a beautiful side.

" It’s round.”

Or I hope my people

can do

it again. It’s super funny.

I ’m round

without a

face

. It’s so funny. It’s so hard to record.

Or “I hope my life collapses.

” "Calm down"

calmly sat on the cabinet that was about to fall

and this: "I want to make a list of my specialties!"

"The first point..."

Well,

it 's gone. A laptop and a camel Pakalu said that his property is only a laptop and a camel

, so he bet with his friends

that as long as

there are 5,000 tracking

, he can get 10,000 US dollars

, so he has been working hard Running Twitter and

the emperor pays off his painstaking efforts

. His various "world-weary" and "miserable"

jokes really succeeded

[Pakalu successfully became popular! 】

Pakalu’s Twitter

has nearly 800,000 followers in less than two years,

and his Facebook page has 500,000 likes. As long as

he posts a post

, there will be tens of thousands of shares

. According to

Pakalu, it exploded Hong let him win money smoothly

and bought a gas station with it

. However, he did not become positive because of this,

and he continued to post world-weary posts on Twitter

. We observed that fans who like Pakalu can

mainly be divided into Two aspects.

The first is to hold the mentality of watching the show

, and wonder how many exaggerated words he can come up with

to describe his life?

Furthermore, I think that although what Pakalu said is ridiculous

, sometimes it is also very pertinent

. Like this

"My goal in life is to find the goal in life"

makes people laugh and cry

, but good times don't last forever

, In 2018, for unknown reasons,

Pakalu ’s Twitter and Facebook accounts were suddenly shut down.

His millions of fans collapsed on the spot

, and many people were wailing,

“My life really has no purpose”! ! !

But unexpectedly, at this moment

Pakalu appeared again!

Ah, but this time there are tens of

thousands of Pakalu,

and there are Pakalu everywhere!

Back then,

there was only one profile photo of Pakalu on Twitter,

so it was super easy to imitate him Now

, if you type "Pakalu" on the search bar

, a bunch of accounts will appear

,

making it difficult to distinguish between real and fake. But, if you want to be Pakalu is

not so easy

. There are many people who stop playing after playing

. Among the pile of Pakalu

, there are two accounts that are the most serious and famous.

The first one is "Pakalu w"

on his Twitter The account

is only one w more than the original account . Although

it was founded in 2015 , it was not until 2018, after the original Pakalu disappeared

, that he began to post.

At present

, the number of followers exceeds 300,000 ,

and his Twitter introduction reads

"From a gas station It started, now we have arrived"

is quite in line with Pakalu's personality

, and even the style of posting is very similar

. Like this "When I see myself in the mirror"

is Pakalu at all!

Therefore, it is currently the account that

everyone thinks is closest to the deity

, and the second one is Xavier

who abruptly changed Pakalu's name

[Xavier broke out? 】

Since October 2020,

Xavier has been posting photos of Pakalu everywhere

, because the content has inherited Pakalu's overly pertinent style,

and has been circulated as a meme by many people

. His fan page has also grown rapidly and has

now broken through

With 1.6 million likes, he beat Pakalu back

then . Some fans said that Xavier was like a child in "The King's New Clothes".

He spoke

the truth that everyone dared not say or never thought about

Like this picture, I originally wanted to say

"Joint equality is not real justice",

but Xavier insisted on leaving a message

"Hey, this is a crime, how can you watch the game without buying tickets!"

Or this "Smile is The best medicine,"

Xavier said

, but if you're laughing for no reason

, you really need medicine Like this picture of

"The Boy I Like" and "The Boy Who Likes Me",

it seems that the poster wants to laugh at

himself and say that there is

a big gap between dreams and reality.

Said I like you?"

These interesting interactions

not only increased the number of Xavier's fans

, but also caused an upsurge of imitation.

More and more people will use this photo

with Xavier's account name to choke people everywhere

, even Zwell Er's son

and daughter

also appeared...

Then some people are curious , is this Xavier

related to Pakalu back then?

【Is Xavier Pakaru? 】

An Indian website (lifebeyondnumbers)

interviewed Xavier

in an online text

because he wanted to know the answer

too much. Xavier said that he is currently working at a gas station

and he used to post on

Twitter because of a bet with a friend He

was popular but his name was not Xavier at the time

. Well...it

sounded like Pakalu

, but he suddenly changed the subject

and changed the image of Pakalu Wannian being single in the past , saying that he

was actually a sad married man.

And since he became famous, many girls

have

sent messages to marry him

, but unfortunately

he can't handle so many wives

In the end, he said with regret,

"Oh, I wish I could."

The entire article is full of dry words

, although there is no positive answer

, but it also brings a lot of entertainment effects.

However , Pakalu's old fans are not like this Easy to deal with

[Boycott Xavier! 】

There are nearly 30,000 people on the American forum Reddit who are very upset

with Xavier and think

he is just a fake.

It’s a bit unreasonable. Again

, in the past, Pakalu mostly took the route of self-deprecating

, complaining about his own life,

even if

he occasionally choked people, he

just tweeted, but Xwell left messages everywhere

. Many people think that they are essentially It's not the same at all

, so many old fans are worried that

if Xavier continues to be popular,

it may replace Pakalu's authentic status

. Therefore, the "fuckxavier" community was established

to prevent this thief from taking the position

. However, some fans carefully tracked down Pakalu. Karoo later discovered that the identity of the person who

started this wave of memes

was not pure

[Who is behind the mirror? 】

Someone searched for the subject of the photo claiming to be "Pakalu"

and found that he is actually

an employee of "IIT Kanpur" in India. There is no gas station

at all

and he does not live in the United States.

This news is on Reddit Aroused discussion

However , a netizen in the message helped to clarify

that although the photo is of the employee himself

, he has no idea that he is very popular on the Internet

. Moreover, his current photo on the school website has

also been replaced

with this one, so he was stolen. Yet?

We're not sure about this part

because we haven't found any response from him at the moment

, only the students at that school claim that

they know this guy

and according to them he's

totally ignorant of any of this

. Then again, someone went to Par Karu's fan page, when Conan

found that

there was a user called "Lee Nova" in the manager's place.

He not only posted similar posts to Pakalu

's Twitter, but also celebrated his own Pakalu on his IG. The Lu fan page

has exceeded 100,000 likes

, so the speculation about the "stealing pictures" is

almost convincing, but

judging from the profile picture,

Lee Nova is a white male through and through, and has nothing to do

with India

[Pakalu actually Is it "racial discrimination"? 】

This fact disappointed some people

, who thought that Lee Nova was basically racially discriminatory

. He first stole the pictures, and then self-righteously took

the name randomly to look very Indian

. His English is very poor. Finally,

let this character say some self-deprecating words

. He wants to use the public’s stereotypes

of Indians to earn traffic

. What makes them most angry is that there are

so

many people who like such an obvious fake account

. But Others have a different opinion

and think that the critics

are taking internet memes too seriously!

This school of thought holds that when

most people see Pakalu saying that he only has a laptop

and a camel, he

can realize that he is just a fictional character

. They emphasize that the reason why everyone will be amused

and It doesn't matter whether he is a real person

or not "laughing at Indians"

, but the image he presents is really absurd

but very real, so it is very funny

[Our point of view]

Before entering the point of view

, we must first specialize Thanks to all the members of Zhiqi Qiqi.

Because of your support and sponsorship

, we can continue to produce various topics. If

you are willing to support us to go further

, please click this link in the information column

to join our membership

or you can also use "Super thank you"

for supporting us with a small amount.

Then again, when we were writing this episode, we

sometimes fell

into a dilemma of "joke choice".

Like the last discussion just now,

we fully agree that

the content or image that many people seem to find funny

may have completely different feelings in the eyes of different ethnic groups and different parties

. Maybe

some people will think

that these concerns are true. It's too much

, no need to make a fuss about it!

But we think that for someone who is hurt or offended,

those uncomfortable feelings

must be very real, and that's what we often

find difficult when we choose material or watch Internet memes this time

, because we are also very It's understandable that things like

the Internet

and memes

are like a mask.

Anyone

can wear it, play it , and

say

things that are impossible or inconvenient to say in real life.

On the one hand , this can achieve a stress-relieving effect

. If it still gets echoes from many people

, it may also mean that

it indirectly helps many people express their own voices,

so that everyone can keep warm

, and even condense into a subculture, so that

each other can gain a sense of identity

. Like later, as long as you see this face, it will

automatically associate with

the image of "like to choke people, a little white eyes".

However

, for Xavier, it is a

bit subtle here .

The feeling of "hitting the blind spot"

constantly brings unexpected freshness to everyone

, but sometimes, these jokes

may also be based on some stereotypes or conflicts between genders

. In other words, the so-called echoes

are not necessarily all

It is positive! Whether it is funny or

not , and whether

it will offend others is also very difficult to determine. What

the gentleman

in the real world thinks

is still a mystery. The joke came out,

if there is any uncomfortable place

, you are also very welcome to leave a message to tell us,

share your information

or the most true feelings!

Finally, I would also like to ask everyone, have

you seen the main character of this meme?

Finally, if you like today's video,

please share it

to let more people know "who is this person"!
