Wojak
Wojak — the Feels Guy — is the internet's bare face of emotion: a crude, bald MS Paint man whose blank melancholy became the ancestor of an entire taxonomy of online identity. If Pepe is how the internet jokes, Wojak is how it confesses.
Origin
The drawing surfaced on imageboards around 2009–2010, popularized by a poster using the handle “wojak” on German-language boards before migrating to 4chan, where “that feel” and “I know that feel bro” turned a crude sketch into a universal emotional handshake.
Rise
Wojak proved infinitely forkable. From the original sad man grew the entire -oomer dynasty — Doomer, Bloomer, Zoomer, Boomer — plus the grey NPC, crying wojaks, brainlets and soyjaks: a folk psychology rendered in MS Paint, sorting all of humanity into feelings with faces. In crypto, the pink wojak — screaming, liquidated — became the official portrait of every crash, and wojak-posting the primary language of degen pain.
Connections
Wojak's eternal companion is Pepe the Frog: frog and feels guy, the comedy and tragedy masks of the same theater. Every wojak-family fighter in this roster — Doomer, Bloomer, Zoomer, NPC — is his descendant.
