This is Pepe the Frog. Hes a laid-back amphibious dude whose hobbies include hanging out with his roommates, getting stoned, drinking pop, eating pizza and watching TV. He doesnt get out much and spends the majority of his time slinging outdated 90s clapbacks at his fellow dude-bros.

You might be surprised, then, to hear that Pepe was recently designated a hate symbol by the Anti-Defamation League . Talk about not chill.

The slack-jawed frog was originally created by artist Matt Furie in 2005 as part of the zine Boys Club . The comic revolves around the absurd, marijuana-fueled antics of Pepe and his crew Andy, Brett and Landwolf. A typical evening for the 20-something slackers of various species would include smoking weed, surfing the internet, eating a beastly amount of snacks and talking at length about how said snacks would eventually be expelled from their bodies, sparing no nasty detail.

Furie first brought the animals to life on Microsoft Paint, printing his comics out at a local Kinkos when he wanted a physical copy. Needless to say, Pepes origins were humble.

[Boys Club is] about that post-college zone where you live with a bunch of roommates and dont really leave the house, Furie said in an interview with The Huffington Post. Its playful, absurd, a little surreal.
