HONK1 is a minimalist goose emote that shows just the beak/bill of a goose in an orange/amber color. It's part of a set of goose-themed emotes popular on Twitch and 7TV. The emote represents a goose's honking sound or action, and is often used to express silly or chaotic energy in chat.
Origin
HONK1 appears to be part of the goose emote meta that became popular on Twitch around 2019-2020, partially inspired by the game 'Untitled Goose Game' which was released in September 2019 and featured a mischievous goose as the main character. The emote is likely from 7TV or BTTV emote repositories, though the specific creator is not definitively known without additional information.
When to use
HONK1 is typically used in the following contexts:
- When a streamer or chat is being silly or chaotic - To spam in chat when a goose appears in a game or is mentioned by a streamer - As part of a series of goose emotes that might be used together to form a complete goose - When viewers want to playfully 'honk' at the streamer or other chatters - During raid events where viewers flood another streamer's chat with goose emotes
