Xok is a cursed internet meme featuring a distorted, low-resolution character that resembles a cross between Kirby and Pac-Man with an unnervingly wide, black mouth. The image first gained notoriety in the late 2010s within 'cursed image' circles and Discord servers, often associated with a sense of impending doom or 'glitchcore' aesthetics. It is frequently used in 'POV' memes where Xok is depicted as a monster chasing the viewer through a dark hallway or basement. The name 'Xok' itself stems from intentional misspellings and 'shitposting' culture, cementing its place as a staple of surreal and horror-themed internet humor.
