Mysterious Twitter user @elpablogrande tweeted 'Enjoying the chungus among us' a decade ago and Twitter is freaking out over the supposed internet time traveler. According to @elpablogrande's profile, they joined Twitter in 2009 and have been 'Riding the Wave of Awesome since 1982!' Okay, very sus indeed! Who is this time-traversing imposter? What do they want? Who do they serve?
Since the tweet resurfaced, many have been expressing their dismay through memes and jokes. Others have their own theories that explain away the 'chungus among us' phenomenon. We've collected some of the best replies, takes and Twitter memes about the puzzling tweet from a decade ago.
Honestly, theories against the time-travel conspiracy pretty much fell flat. We'll have to conclude that a gang of sus imposters from the future went back in time to spread paranoia and confusion.
Although a specific search shows that @elpablogrande's tweet is the earliest instance of a seemingly clairvoyant and very sus reference to 'chungus among us,' there are a handful of others who have made several tweets over the years. Which begs the question, did these tweets predict the memes, or were the memes a result of something that had already been seeded into the zeitgeist?
