New Internet Meme “Loneliness Group” Receives Popular Support

“What I am posting is not a post, but loneliness”, “what I am using is not a mobile phone, but loneliness”, “what brother is doing is not sleeping, but loneliness”. Starting from July, this kind of phrase began taking over various major BBS forums, and what more, those people who adore this phrase have also been named “Loneliness Group” [寂寞派, jìmò pài].

Where did the “loneliness” sentence come from? With regards to this, it is currently popularly rumored that at the beginning of July in Baidu Tieba there was a person who suddenly posted a photo of a man eating noodles with the accompanying text: “What brother is eating are not noodles, but loneliness!” Not long after, netizens copied this sentence, starting many various types of loneliness parody/mischief.

There are other names for the “Loneliness” netizens including “Loneliness Party” [寂寞党, jìmò dǎng] and “Loneliness Religion” [寂寞教, jìmò jiào].
