Deadge

Deadge represents a state of complete exhaustion, defeat, or emotional death. It's used to express that something has killed the viewer's enthusiasm, energy, or hope. The emote conveys a sense of being so tired, disappointed, or defeated that you can't even sit up anymore - you're just lying face-down in despair. It's more extreme than Sadge, indicating not just sadness but complete demoralization or burnout.

Deadge is a variation of the popular Pepe the Frog emote that originated around 2020-2021. It depicts Pepe lying face-down on a desk or table in a lifeless, defeated position. The emote was first uploaded to FrankerFaceZ and BetterTTV as a third-party Twitch emote. It's part of the broader 'Sadge' family of emotes, which includes variations like Sadge (sad Pepe) and other emotional states of Pepe the Frog. The name combines 'Dead' with the '-ge' suffix that's common in Pepe-related Twitch emotes.

Deadge is commonly used when: a streamer makes an extremely bad play or throw in a game; when something cringe-worthy or embarrassing happens; when a stream becomes boring or loses momentum ('dead stream'); when chat is inactive or slow ('dead chat'); after a streamer tells a terrible joke; when a highly anticipated moment fails to deliver; or when viewers are exhausted from a long stream or gaming session. It's particularly popular in gaming streams when watching frustrating gameplay or repeated failures.
