ppOverheat

ppOverheat Twitch / Discord emote

Meaning

ppOverheat is a BTTV (BetterTTV) emote that depicts a small 8-bit character with tiny eyes that appears to be jumping back and forth. The emote visually represents overheating or intense excitement, as suggested by its name. The pixelated red and orange colors in the emote evoke the imagery of fire or heat.

Origin

The ppOverheat emote was uploaded to BetterTTV by a user named "uhavebadpc" on July 5, 2018. It's part of the BetterTTV extension, which is a third-party browser extension that enhances the Twitch viewing experience by providing additional custom emotes beyond Twitch's default offerings. The emote has become popular enough to be recognized within the Twitch community, similar to other custom emotes from extensions like 7TV and FrankerFaceZ (FFZ).

When to use

ppOverheat is typically used in Twitch chat in the following contexts:

  • When a streamer or their computer is struggling to handle a game or application (literally overheating)
  • During intense or high-action moments in gameplay
  • When chat is getting particularly excited or hyped about something happening on stream
  • To indicate that something is becoming too intense or chaotic
  • When a streamer is getting frustrated or 'heated' during gameplay
