iridescent-apatosaurus Posted July 12, 2016 Posted July 12, 2016 (Not sure where this goes so if it's in the wrong spot, feel free to move it mods) I'm new here, and was wondering: what's with the papos - where did this symbol come from and what does it mean? thanks
paporomantic Posted July 12, 2016 Posted July 12, 2016 Papo cult followers perhaps won't give you a serious answer, so I'll give a somewhat serious outsider viewpoint instead (though my info is limited as I've never used the chat myself, I only read the chat antics thread). A papo is an Arocalypse chat meme which is an intentionally incognizable object, it seems. It even had no depiction until @DannyFenton123 drew some kind of a towelie android () to visualize it. It has no intrinsic value, it's just a meme, a parody of a god if you wish. The papo cult overtook the (also jocular) potato cult on Arocalypse when one of the latter's prophets, @Spud, went on holiday, and its other prophet, @Dodgypotato, swore to the new 'gods' - papos.
omitef Posted July 12, 2016 Posted July 12, 2016 The papo has no intrinsic value because the papo is priceless and transcends all intrinsic value there is no god there is only papo
Zema Posted July 12, 2016 Posted July 12, 2016 Ah, but only a handful few know the origin of papo. Here is a conversation between dodgypotato and I on the origin of papo: What @aroMa(n)tisse said is correct, it is but a silly meme. The original papo was drawn by @DannyFenton123 on Sunday 3rd of July 2016. It has since exploded.

Indeed. Do not doubt my loyalty, however. Papos are my whole world now. May the papos guide you forever on your journey of life, and death. :spiritualpapo:
paporomantic Posted July 13, 2016 Posted July 13, 2016 I've googled for 'papo' and it turns out to be a French figurine manufacturer Also, I thought that 'papo' is a variation of 'papi' (Spanish 'daddy'), and I was right - that's how Urban Dictionary defines it.

I immediately thought of the Korean word 바보, sometimes romanized as "papo," which means "idiot." So that would make this the idiot cult
iridescent-apatosaurus Posted July 14, 2016 Author Posted July 14, 2016 haha ok thanks! I was not going to guess that on my own. (This thread is pretty amusing though.)
aussiekirkland Posted July 14, 2016 Posted July 14, 2016 I feel like I learn something new everyday, thanks Papo cult!

omitef Posted May 21, 2017 Posted May 21, 2017 @SamwiseLovesLife That's me. Amusing and slightly horrifying.
Queen of Spades Posted May 21, 2017 Posted May 21, 2017 Okay, I am totally confused. What are these papos exactly?!
