GAYGE— ORIGIN, MEANING & USAGE

Gayge A Twitch emote, drawn from the Pepe-derived emote family and often shown in rainbow colors, that chat spams in response to anything that could be read as gay. Fan sources describe it as mostly a lighthearted reaction to bromance or Pride-themed moments, though its tone varies by community.

Origin:Wiktionary lists Gayge as Twitch slang and a blend of gay and Pepege, a Pepe the Frog derivative, and a related emote family with the -ge ending (sadge, madge). A FrankerFaceZ page credits the uploader Livida_ and shows a reviewer note describing it as an emote showing pride, but no exact upload date.

EXAMPLE USAGE

""Chat filled with the rainbow emote when the two streamers hugged after the win.""

5HEAD— ORIGIN, MEANING & USAGE

5Head A Twitch emote made from the 4Head emote with the forehead digitally enlarged. Chat spams it to react to a moment of great intelligence or, more often ironically, to tease a play or take that is meant to look clever but is not.

Origin:SublimedTV added 5Head to FrankerFacez on March 15, 2018, and it caught on in streamer xQc's chat during Overwatch streams, often in reference to a teammate. The emote is a modification of 4Head, which shows the streamer Cadberry.
