SPECIAL REPORT: Roblox 'Doge' Madness?

...
So, I bet many of you are wondering: what is this Doge thing? It's on some popular games, an Apoc. Rising ad, Shedlesky has a picture of Doge on his blurb, and loleris (Creator of Intense Sword Fighting), who changed his name to Dogeris. O_o

So, what IS going on? Robloxians all over the globe are commenting about this madness. What is going on? Are we being hacked? Or is Roblox just going plain crazy?! Well... I will give my two cents on this situation.

Seems that I gotta research...
According to Know Your Meme, (and I quote) Doge is a slang term for “dog” that is primarily associated with pictures of Shiba Inus (nicknamed “Shibe”) and internal monologue captions on Tumblr. These photos may be photoshopped to change the dog’s face or captioned with interior monologues in Comic Sans font.

How does that matter? I don't know. Just some more detail into this story. But, why does it exist now?

In the USA, it's 25 Oct 2013 (It's 26 Oct 2013 over here, and very cold, btw)
So... (I quote again)
On October 28th, 2010, a photo of a dog was submitted to the /r/Ads subreddit[3] with the title “LMBO LOOK @ THISFUKKIN DOGE,” where it received 266 upvotes, 218 points overall and 48 comments prior to being archived. 

But it's Oct 25 now... What's going on? It could be an inside joke.. You never know what goes in the mind of Robloxians.

Oh, and if you can't deal with Roblox going crazy with such jokes, you better leave.

So, that's my not so helpful two cents. Maybe it would start to get people thinking instead of complaining. Which may never happen. Might as well call this blog Dogeians, Opinions and Reviews...
