kek
WoW-born equivalent of 'lol.'
Definitions
Means laughter. Originated in World of Warcraft, where Horde players typing 'lol' had it auto-translated to 'kek' for Alliance players. Escaped into Twitch, Discord and 4chan chat where it stuck. Carries slightly more 'laughing AT you' energy than plain lol.
4chan-era meme deity: 'Kek' the frog-god, a half-joking Pepe-adjacent figure tied to the 2016-era 'meme magic' bit. Mostly retired but still surfaces in older posts.
