peepoGiggles

The peepoGiggles emote depicts a cute, cartoon-style Peepo character (a variant of Pepe the Frog) covering its mouth while giggling or laughing. This emote conveys a sense of uncontrollable laughter, amusement, or playful mischief. It's often used to express that something is particularly funny or when viewers want to show they're enjoying a humorous moment during a stream.

The peepoGiggles emote is part of the larger Peepo emote family, which originated from the "Apu Apustaja" (Help Helper) meme - a crudely drawn variation of Pepe the Frog that emerged on platforms like 4chan. While the original Pepe character was created by Matt Furie in his 2005 comic series "Boy's Club," the Peepo variant evolved through internet culture as a more childlike, simplified version of Pepe.

The emote is available through third-party extensions like 7TV, BetterTTV (BTTV), and FrankerFaceZ (FFZ), which allow Twitch viewers to use emotes beyond Twitch's official library. Like other Peepo variations (peepoHappy, peepoSad, peepoCheer), peepoGiggles became popular in the late 2010s as part of the expanding Pepe/Peepo emote ecosystem on Twitch.

The peepoGiggles emote is commonly used in Twitch chat in the following situations:

• When a streamer says or does something genuinely funny that makes viewers laugh
• During awkward or embarrassing moments that are humorous
• When viewers want to express playful mischief or that they find something amusing
• In response to jokes or funny stories shared during a stream
• When chat is collectively enjoying a humorous moment or situation
• Sometimes used sarcastically when something is meant to be serious but comes across as funny
