What Does Omegalul Mean?

This slang term is used when you have found something so incredibly funny that you are rolling on the floor laughing and you can’t breathe.

Origin of Omegalul

The slang term “lul,” meaning basically the same thing as its counterpart “lol,” originated in 2013 on the game streaming site Twitch. It featured a picture of the famous streamer known as TotalBiscuit, whose real name is John Bain. The photo is a picture of Bain laughing during a convention and was taken by photographer Jonathan Tayag. Somehow the picture was made into an emote called “cynciallaugh” which ended up on Bain’s stream and it began to be used widely among Twitch users.

However, Tayag had issues with this as he had never given permission for the picture to be used. After three years of battle between Bain and Tayag, the photographer finally said he was fine with the picture being used as long as it was free to use and did not have to be paid for. In 2016, it was made into an official Twitch emote that could be viewed with the BetterTwitch. tv plugin and its is still used today despite Bain passing away in 2018. Since then, the term has been added to like this term to take on different meanings centered around the meaning of “lul.”
