Penny Arcade, created by Jerry Holkins and Mike Krahulik, is one of the most influential webcomics on the internet, debuting in 1998. While many of its strips have circulated as memes, the most enduring is the 'Greater Internet Fuckwad Theory' (GIFT), which posits that a normal person, when given anonymity and an audience, inevitably transforms into a 'total fuckwad.' The comic's distinct art style and focus on video game culture have made it a staple for online commentary. Users frequently repurpose these panels to mock toxic online interactions, industry trends, or the absurdities of gamer logic, keeping the comic's legacy alive in meme culture.
