PepegiDriving

PepegiDriving is used to represent someone who is 'driving' or leading a conversation, activity, or situation in a foolish, chaotic, or incompetent manner. It suggests that whoever is 'in the driver's seat' is making questionable decisions or steering things in a silly direction. The emote can also be used when a streamer or chat participant is taking control of a situation with reckless abandon or when someone is metaphorically 'driving the stream' into chaos or entertainment.

PepegiDriving is a variant of the popular Pepega emote, which itself is derived from the Pepe the Frog meme. This specific version shows Pepe sitting in a driving position with his hands on a steering wheel. The emote combines 'Pepega' (representing foolishness or silly behavior) with 'Driving' to create a humorous image. It emerged in the late 2010s as part of the expansive Pepe emote family on platforms like 7TV, FrankerFaceZ, and BetterTTV. The original Pepega emote was created by Discord user Adew in 2018, and PepegiDriving followed as one of many creative variations that spawned from the Pepega phenomenon.

The emote is commonly used when: a streamer makes a series of bad decisions in a game while insisting they know what they're doing; someone in chat takes over the conversation with silly or nonsensical comments; a player is literally driving poorly in a racing or driving game; the stream or situation is being 'driven' into chaotic or humorous territory; or when referencing someone confidently doing something incorrectly. It's particularly popular in gaming streams, especially those featuring driving mechanics or when streamers are stubbornly making poor choices.
