Derp existing.

About[]

Derp, much like the gacros, the subject is typically portrayed with eyes that are pointed to each side. “Derp” is often used in rage comics to replace nondescript names or parts of conversation. Derp is also usually the main character of Rage Comics.

Origin[]

The term became prevalent in the late 1980's as a component of generation X slang. A common retort was a goofy laugh "Uh huh, Uh huh, Uh huh, derp," implying that what was stated previously, was obtuse, obvious, socially awkward, and/or stupid. This character always gets trolled by Trollface

The first known televised instance of the word “derp” comes from the 1998 film Baseketball by South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone. During a scene where they are caught smelling underwear taken from a woman’s private drawer, Matt runs out of the room and says “Derp.”


Spread[]

The 34th episode of South Park titled “The Succubus” aired on April 21st, 1999, featuring a character named Mr. Derp who briefly served as the chef’s replacement. In this episode the character performs various slapstick clichés like striking himself on the head with a hammer while exclaiming “Derp!”. South Park has included use of the word “derp” in other episodes as well, including a spoof of Rob Schneider.

A Memebase[2] site for Derp derivatives was created on June 20th, 2010. A Facebook[5] fan page has 25,662 likes as of August 22nd, 2011.

Rage Comic Usage[]

“Herp” and “derp” are often used in rage comics as place holders for names or topics in conversation that are not crucial in whatever story or joke is being told. A rage character named Herp Derp is meant to represent stupidity or ignorance.
