REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE

"He clutched the round 1v4 with no shield. Poggers."

LORE & ORIGIN

Evolved from the 'PogChamp' emote on Twitch (originally a photo of a player's exaggerated shocked face), 'poggers' became the verbalized, sayable form of that reaction once it spread from chat-only emote spam into spoken and written gaming vocabulary.
