Let’s Talk About Idiosyncrasies of Teabagging in Gaming
Non-gamers sometimes can act ridiculous, according to experienced gamers.
We had lots of fun with gaming friends recently. Teabagging is a fun event on gaming platforms. My purpose in this article is to introduce teabagging and how non-gamers perceive it. Experienced gamers find humor in teabagging since it aggravates the opponents. I also share a sample video to make my points.
What is teabagging?
Teabagging can be described as a “victory dance” in the gaming communities as a way to insult or aggravate the victim. Some gamers called it “corpse humping.”
Teabagging is the action of repeatedly crouching over the enemy you just killed in a “Teabag” motion.
The action most likely originated sometime around the late 1990s in FPS (First Person Shooter) games. However, it became more prominent in 2001 with the latest popular FPS game, Halo: Combat Evolved.
By the time Halo 3 came out, teabagging was wildly popular.
Halo 3’s “ragdoll” physics allowed players to move their victims’ corpses around while teabagging, which you can assume became very comical.
