Nah, he doesn't claim it that I've seen- I'm claiming it for him, because I know he's been saying it for over ten years. Fuck, I even remember the video where he spontaneously came up with it, ranting about some dumb nigger who killed another nigger for a sheboon's favor.
As a long time listener of his, imagine how it was for me to see "simp" entering common vernacular. Vast majority of people who say it, if you ask them "what does that mean?" will tell you "I don't know" or "simple".
Ah, ok. I'll have to take your word for it. I know nothing about it. I didn't even really understand what "simp" meant and had to ask someone once it became popular enough. I don't follow popular culture too closely.
I don't follow popular culture too closely.
I'm with ya there, man. I can unironically say "I liked [insert thing that is cool now] way before most of you even heard of them/it." That's why this was so weird for me- Tommy is not a super famous, rich celebrity. He was a mildly successful YouTuber with his own website, reporting on nigger crimes.
So if his little callsigns start creeping their way into the common lexicon... that means his message is being heard by people who then regurgitate it.
