A clever combination of phrase and picture, used to express confusion
- Date Discovered: 03/2007
- Discovered On: DeviantArt, 4chan, WoW forums
Summary
A combination of LOL and WUT, LOL WUT is a clever way to express bewilderment at an inane statement. LOL WUT has been a phrase longer than it has been a meme; simply adding LOL and WUT makes LOL WUT, but in 2007, this combination of words became associated with a surreal pear on DeviantArt.
