The 'Kyle' meme emerged as a personification of a specific subculture of aggressive, white teenage boys characterized by their love for Monster Energy drinks, Fox Racing gear, and an inexplicable urge to punch holes in drywall. While the name had been used disparagingly for years, it reached peak internet fame around 2019 when social media users began satirizing the 'Kyle' persona as the ultimate manifestation of misplaced teenage rage. It is frequently used to mock hyper-masculine posturing or to joke about the specific aesthetic of suburban American youth who are obsessed with motocross, gaming, and extreme caffeine supplements.
