OK, gonna put my internet nerd hat on. That frog has been around 2008, when a 4chan user uploaded part of a 2005 comic by Matt Furie[1]. Then it was photoshopped around to its various moods and forms and a couple of years ago hit the mainstream.

- andyourbore 9y agoTo put on my own nerd hat, the author is referencing "dat boi" as in "oh shit here come dat boi!" — not Pepe. Both are frog-related memes, but dat boi is much more recent and did originate on Tumblr, even if its final form may have actually come into fruition on Facebook — though Know Your Meme can be wildly inaccurate at times.

- sotojuan 9y agoAh got it, now I'm a bit embarrassed. I didn't even know that existed until a few weeks ago (a sign that I'm getting old?). Thanks for the clarification.
