The Bonk meme features Cheems, a popular Shiba Inu character from the Doge lore, hitting another character over the head with a baseball bat accompanied by the onomatopoeic 'bonk.' While it initially gained traction on social media sites like Reddit and Twitter as a generic physical comedy format, it evolved into the legendary 'Go to Horny Jail' meme. This specific version is used to mock or discourage overly sexual comments on the internet. Since its rise in 2020, Bonk has become a staple of internet culture, representing a lighthearted way to police online behavior with a cartoonish thud.
