BibleThump Emote Meaning

“Hello, sadness, my old friend, I’ve come to speak with you again…”

Soo, what is biblethump?

Have you ever heard of it? Have you ever used it?

Well, the bible thump emote is a way to express your sadness and disappointment regarding an outcome.

Whenever you fail a level or experience something unfortunate on Twitch, the biblethump twitch emote is there to help you express your feelings.

Like most Twitch emotes,  biblethump (humorously referred to as  biblethumb) can also be used to poke fun at someone.

Something like,  “Hey, I genuinely feel sad for you. Not. Just trolling, lol!”

Still, if we speak generally,  biblethump,  bibblethump, or  biblethum (call it whichever you prefer) is the “teary-eyed” emote you can use to express grief, whether it is genuine or fake (as in joking with someone).

The Story Behind

Our little bibletump here was originally released in 2012 (quite a mature emote, I know!) and has been widely used ever since.

Today, you can observe that it is one of the most commonly used and favored “cry-emote.” The reason for this popularity is that it conveys its message quite clearly.

You can clearly see the tears on this thing’s face and in its eyes. Therefore, there is no doubt about what you want to express.

Now, it’s up to the recipient to determine whether you’re joking or being serious.

Of course, you know that this “thingy” is Isaac from The Binding of Isaac?

Bible thump gained popularity rapidly in 2013, largely due to the ICryEveryTime website. This site featured a flash animation of BibleThumps cascading down the screen, making it a significant contribution.

Although the bibletump’s popularity has waned somewhat, twitch biblethump remains an excellent tool for expressing your sadness and/or disappointment.
