What does the bonk emoji mean?

A classic bonk reaction for when someone needs a quick reality check.

The Bonk emoji is a staple of internet culture, originating from the 'horny jail' meme involving a Shiba Inu hitting someone with a baseball bat. It is used in Discord and Slack to playfully reprimand users for saying something questionable, thirsty, or just plain silly. This version features a wide-eyed smiley face taking a direct hit from a volleyball, complete with a comic-style 'POW' burst.

When to use it

  • -Reprimanding friends for saying something thirsty
  • -Responding to someone acting incredibly silly
  • -Shutting down a weird or inappropriate comment
  • -Playfully hitting someone for a bad joke
