You sure? I know "del" comes from /jp/ because that's used on japanese boards, but other than that I'm not sure

The joke is that you frantically typed it out and submitted as fast as possible without checking your spelling because of how urgent it is that what you're replying to is deleted.

Yeah, that's why it came from /jp/. It started as "del" but some people didn't get it and started saying "delete this."

It's an 8gagger meme that started with something from twitter drama.

Ok so we got 3 different and correct answers. Funny how similar memes can come to life and eventually merge even.

Since this is newfag thread, can someone explain where phrases "X on suicide watch" and "What a time to be alive" came from?
>>
>>523842
/jp/ is still almost exactly like old /b/. The only exception is the generals, so just slap in a filter for the word "general" and you're good to go.

idk but the delet misspelling was popularised by /ita/ on /int/
