The 'I Edge to You' meme is a prominent example of 'brainrot' humor, characterized by the ironic and nonsensical use of internet slang. While the term 'edging' has a specific literal meaning, its memeified version is used as a hyperbolic, often absurd way to express obsession or intense focus on a person or character. It became a viral sensation on platforms like TikTok and X (formerly Twitter), frequently appearing in comment sections or paired with 'looksmaxxing' imagery and stoic reaction faces. The meme represents the shift in modern internet culture where words are stripped of their original context to serve as high-impact, surrealist comedic triggers.
