[Edit this paragraph] The origin of tragedy
Origin one
On the Internet, tragedy has replaced homophonic words and become the buzzword of "tragedy" in Yi Zhongtian, and a huge family of "tragedies" has been exposed. It turns out that the word "tragedy" became popular on the Internet from the end of 2008 to the beginning of 2009. The first person to use the word "tragedy" was Yi Zhongtian, who said "tragedy" in the first issue of Lecture Room. This screenshot quickly became popular in major forums. Senior forum host "Shaq" revealed to the media that Tragedy was inspired by Yi Zhongtian's pictures, but the sentence template came from Zhang Ailing. "Zhang Ailing has a famous saying,' Life is a gorgeous robe full of lice'. The first imitation version we saw was' Life is a coffee table filled with cups'. "
Origin ii
The earliest source is a Warcraft video called "See your sister's Lich King Open another day" in 2008. In the video, the Tauren's Sichuan dialect "tragedy" is popular in NGA and used everywhere, which gradually evolved into a tragedy. In June, 2009, the closure of mainstream bt websites made the popularity of Tragedy reach its peak.
Origin three
It is said that there is a special section on "comedy and tragedy" in the aesthetics class of colleges and universities. The word "tragedy" was used by students to explain unfortunate things, and later it gradually evolved into "tragedy".
Origin four
In the budding battle in 2009, the light tone played the piano, and in the group stage, she met a talented supporting role of mahjong girl "Donghengtao", which was later eliminated by Donghengtao. Because of this tragic result, and the fact that Miss Da brought her own cup to the activity room to pour tea in every episode, the word "cup" appeared.
Origin five
As early as 2005, there was a line about "tragedy" in the movie Waiting Alone: ... Wen Ho Chen Liu Rong was chatting in front of the bar, and two people were touched by Zhao who suddenly leaned in, and the juice in Liu Rong's cup spilled out ... Liu Rong said, "What a tragedy". In fact, it has begun to give "tragedy" a new meaning.
Origin six
With the Sogou Pinyin input method, the word "tragedy" is usually displayed as "tragedy" first, and people who are lazy in typing are opportunistic and directly quote the homonym of "tragedy".
Origin seven
Just as football originated in China, modern football originated in England. Although the word "tragedy" has only recently arisen, our ancients have long understood its meaning. As early as in A Dream of Red Mansions written by Cao Xueqin, when Jia Baoyu was in a dreamland, the police fairy invited him to drink a tea called "A Thousand Red Cave", which was homophonic with "A Thousand Red Crys", and invited him to drink the wine of "Wan Yan with a Cup", which was homophonic with "Wan Yan sharing the same sorrow". It implies that all the women in the book are talented but doomed to failure. Among them, because the word "cup" has the meaning of "sadness", it can be considered that Mr. Cao Xueqin's sentence is the ancestor of "cup"
[Edit this paragraph] Tragedy has gradually become the mainstream.
In mid-August 2009, some netizens asked "What is a tragedy?" The word "tragedy" has been born. From June 65438+ 10, 2009, sentences that describe feelings about various things with "tragedy" instead of "tragedy" began to become popular in major forums. The biggest motivation for the popularity of "tragedy" lies in its wide application. Just like the word "embarrassed" in popular comics (2), netizens can use the word "embarrassed" to describe ordinary negative things in daily life, whether they fail in exams, are frustrated in love or are under great work pressure, and fell down today. In addition, the daily necessities of the "cup" itself have also expanded its scope of use, such as "drinking soup with a cup will burn you", which is a pun on the Internet. With "tragedy" as the core, more and more homophonic words are born and popular on the Internet. For example, washing utensils equals comedy, tableware equals tragedy, tea set equals gap, mulberry heart equals sadness, cow face equals tears and so on. The "tragic family" is getting stronger and stronger, gradually surpassing the once-popular "Jia family". After the popularity of "Lonely Party" represented by "Jia", "Tragedy Party" is rapidly becoming the "mainstream" of major forums, and it is very likely to overtake "Lonely Party". The cartoon image that frequently appears in tragic pictures is Saber, the heroine in the Japanese cartoon Destiny. Her wish is to win the Holy Grail War and get the Holy Grail that can realize any wish.

[Edit this paragraph] Tragedy School and Lonely Party
After the popularity of the "Lonely Party" represented by "Jia", the "Tragedy School" with "tragedy" as a homophonic word quickly became the trendy label of major forums and signatures. Many young people begin to frequently use "tragedy" instead of "tragedy" in their lives, which can be used to describe whether they are frustrated in love, depressed in their careers and unhappy. Coupled with the "tragedy" itself has a scene implication, fans have the potential to catch up with the "lonely party." If "tragedy" represents a real negative emotion, "tragedy" is like a teasing joke. Some people think that the popularity of "tragedy" is the same as "Jia, your mother wants you to go home for dinner", both of which are passed down from mouth to mouth because of "loneliness". "We perished in silence and became stationery; It broke out in silence and became a torch. We want to protect ourselves, and we all become masks. We want to be a blockbuster, and it has become a Beijing opera. Never get together again, holding hands and looking at each other with tears, has become a pantomime. Life is your own tragedy, and it is a dish-washing (comedy) in the eyes of others. "The netizen' on the water side' said that those of us who suffer from high housing prices and high pressure in reality can laugh at ourselves and have fun in the virtual world." Homophonic neologisms can not only express the original intention, but also remove the original emotional color, which is more entertaining and cordial. The spoof just wants to create a niche taste, show personality and cause more people to sing bad. "(Chen Ying)
[Edit this paragraph] Derivatives
"Tragedy" has a wide range of applications. When netizens find that all negative events and feelings in daily life can be described by the word "tragedy", the formation of "tragedy party" seems to be logical. Moreover, "tragedy" is not limited to the expression of negative emotions, because it has the characteristics of daily necessities and expands the scope of application of words. Many netizens used this to design a scene language. Some netizens imitated Zhang Ailing's "Life is a gorgeous robe full of fleas." The play parodies "Life is a coffee table full of tragedies", which is called "Life is a tragedy" after the tragedy proverbs version 2.0; Inspired by "tragedy", some people invented derivatives such as washing utensils (comedy), tableware (tragedy) and tea set (gap), which further developed the "tragedy" culture. With the continuous development of "tragedy" culture, this online vocabulary has gradually entered real life. 10 March ago, a realistic version of "China's greatest tragedy" appeared in Changsha, which was about two stories high and was called "China's first tragedy" by netizens. On March 15, Shuangxi electric pressure cooker erected a huge model of a cup, which read "Fake is a big cup". This special cup also has a trademark, which is a Chinese character created by imitating the traditional festive Chinese character "Double Happiness" in China, and is called "Double Sadness". They had similar activities before, and it turned out that many old aprons were actually fakes. Fake aprons are easy to cause explosion and lead poisoning. They think it's a tragedy. In order to publicize the dangers of fake goods to consumers, they made such a big cup full of fake aprons. This is the first offline activity with the help of the online word "tragedy". Because this tragic photo concretizes the word "tragic", it was reported by many media and appeared in the domestic π network festival. The photo quickly became a hot map widely circulated on the Internet, and many netizens took this photo as a reply picture.

[Edit this paragraph] Tragic events
According to American media reports, the gift shop of the Australian Parliament Building threw 200 mugs originally used to commemorate President Obama's visit into the trash can on June 7. Of course, this "tragedy" was not caused by Obama's cancellation of his visit to Australia twice before. A customer who visited this gift shop recently pointed out that Obama's English name "Barack" was wrongly written as "Barrack" in this commemorative cup. A government official who asked not to be named said that the mistake was made when an official ordered mugs from the manufacturer. The head of the Australian parliamentary affairs service said that this mistake was very embarrassing. "He (Obama) is a very important head of state, and we are honored by the visit of President Obama and others. We don't want to sell these cups cheaply. " Obama's visit to Australia was originally scheduled for March this year 18-24. Later, because Obama insisted on staying at home to push the health care reform bill through Congress, after two adjustments, he decided to visit in June. However, White House spokesman Robert Gibbs announced last week that Obama had postponed his visit to Australia again. Gibbs did not explain why. But public opinion believes that the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico is the main reason for Obama's decision.
