He's the goofy sidekick, a comic relief of some sort. People find him funny, so it's no surprise that he's popular in memes.

I mean, take Rayman 3 for example. Globox has tons of funny lines. Rayman barely says anything.

Yeah, I think if you look at the wiki, you'll realize that Rayman has no lines at all from the Bog of Murk to the Tower of the Leptys. :mrgreen: Although he does make quite a few celebratory exclamations in between :hap:

Globox Moment isn't funny though, especially not in the context most people use it in, which is just completely random instead of it being relevant. :mefiant:

I have only a spotty awareness of this whole "Globox Moment" thing actually. How are people (mis)using it?

I don't think it's been misused on here, but the idea is that if you do something silly, you would say "Globox Moment". Some people in the past on other places like Twitter were just randomly saying "Globox Moment" for no reason with no context, making it completely meaningless.

Yeah, I figured you must've been talking about Twitter when you put it like that. :P That's a shame that it's being misused like that, but I suppose at least it keeps the character and franchise in people's minds to some extent (considering the dearth of official material)…

I personally think it could be funny given the right context, but most people misuse it now so the joke is no longer funny.

Tbh, I'm not even sure if this is the case. There is only one prominent globox meme that i know of. And I never found it funny. Same with all the rayman memes, but then again, I'm not that big on memes to begin with! :P

I still find it deeply unsettling that there are Rayman and Globox memes at all outside of this place :mefiant:

I think Globox has more overall meme potential as his looks and words are easy prey for a dumbed down or not-so-bright character hehe

I think it's because he's a blue froggy and people always laugh at the silly character. I even still have my pfp as a green Globox in places.

Now I'm curious, did the Bog of Murk meme ever take on a life outside of RaymanPC?

I dunno if it ever did. Eaynan, on the other hand became a character name by one of my friends. :mryellow:

How do you pronounce that? Is it like the "eay" trigraph in Manx? :fou:
