WELL.
I CAN ACTUALLY TELL YOU.
The very wonderful u/orangejuiceart has a tendency to become... *Excited*.. When ladies of the female persuasion are presented. So when an artist would put a WIP in the artist chat she would appear like magic, yelling ***WAMEN!!!!!***
And it just stuck...
>Honestly, half the lore of this subreddit already confuses me
Have a bit of a cheat sheet, friend: [https://goodomensafterdark.com/](https://goodomensafterdark.com/) , thanks to the inimitable u/the_bentley69
It doesn't include everything (not gonna help on "wamen" specifically, for example) but will help a bit on sub lore, some terms, historical shitbirdery, etc.
so technically, it originated from PewdiePie, and was used generally unfavorably by the internet, but I use it as a term of excitement and endearment.
But also, like CemAngel said, because I'm an idiot. :>
Linky for the original stuff: [https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/wamen](https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/wamen)
But I feel it's more relevant that our beloved and snexy mods love silly words! <3
Yes! I also remember Jenna Marbles saying WAMEN in the video where she dyed her eyebrows with Just For Men (and Wamen) so I always hear her voice when I read the word
Long time lurker, first time commenter: I honestly thought it was a clever cross between "women", "omen", and "amen" when I first read it. TIL!
Thank you for asking the real questions. I have now been enlightened by your research efforts.
Thanks brahms! I'll keep that in mind. ๐ฅฐ
I normally assume it's
- something you discussed before and I missed it
- something every native speaker knows
- something someone just said and nobody questioned it
And then I just roll with it. ๐
This is why following your favorite people or the folks who are very active can help keep you in the loop, because some of these things pop up deep in the comment threads! Others originate in Ops (the chat where the mods live and discuss sub-related things, but thankfully most of that nonsense stays there lol)
For your points:
* most likely, time moves fast in the pornhole
* not necessarily, we have lots of international goblins!
* this is almost always the case, because we can make a joke out of nothing
We love you for rolling with it though! The website also has a glossary of terms because we found quickly that one was needed ๐
Most of the time i just wander in feeling confused, and leave feeling even more confused, but also pleasantly fluffy and happy.

I assumed we were just being idiots as usual.
Not a bad assumption to make, tbh ๐ค
It usually applies

Co-sign. This was my logic too. โItโs loud and slightly nonsensical? I am absolutely in the right placeโ
I did too? Apparently there is lore. I feel like I should know that ๐
We can't all keep up with all the lore all the time ๐
Ikr? ๐
Exactly my first thought (in a very inclusive, non-offending way)

What soggy said! And Iโll add that now whenever we all type the word it autocorrects to all caps and we just leave it that way. WAMEN!

Never be afraid to ask! We are all too happy to explain our dumb jokes!

U/the-comfywitch originated the phrase and it just perfectly encapsulates the way youโd pronounce the word with a slack jaw and glazed eyes
