Description
The Laughing Guy Feigning Suicide meme comes from a TikTok posted by @justinsilvajr after June 23, 2022. It parodied the It's Totally Okay To Let Your Goofy Side Shine Through trend by showing exaggerated fake suicide attempts — jumping off a balcony, drinking bleach, setting himself on fire — while smiling and laughing. Though the original video was deleted, reuploads quickly spread. The clip became a popular reaction meme on Twitter starting August 2021, used to caption moments of extreme but humorous overreaction. It gained wider traction in July 2022, especially after a viral tweet about actress Anya Taylor-Joy. Its dark humor and absurdity made it a lasting visual shorthand across social media.
