Frogs symbolize disgustingness and bad hygiene. These characteristics are also associated with nerdy young men. The character Pepe the frog was created by Matt Furie as a particularly disgusting young man who lives with his three roommates in the comic Boy's Club. Pepe has been adopted by Sup Forums as a stock character representing the users of the website because the Sup Forums userbase is composed of nerdy young men who are presumed to be disgusting and have bad hygiene. These are froglike traits, get it? It's self-effacing humor.

Didn't it start on Sup Forums though? Was Sup Forums subconsciously trolled all this time?

Foul Bachelor Frog was one of the better Reddit memes. Pepe is just a more extreme version of the same concept.
Isaac Ross
It was the original pepe

It seems so bizarre that there are people who don't remember this, somehow. I understand why they wouldn't, but it's a part of the story.

Pepe first appeared in Boy's Club in 2005.
Foul Bachelor Frog is from 2008.
Pepe images have been on Sup Forums for a long time, but he didn't become really popular until /r9k/ made him into a NEET antihero, which started around 2014.
Camden Morales
Didn't know that his history was that long
Daniel Smith
Before 2014, Pepe was just a funny picture. The character and the cultural phenomenon was invented in 2014 or thereabouts.
Carter Lopez
And then afterwards, Kek was personified as a frog just because of Pepe, huh?
Christian Harris
Kek is a strange coincidence. It just so happens that there was an Egyptian frog god with that name.

> Kuk (also spelled as Kek or Keku)
