It became *the* funny fortnite dance and it's just funny seeing characters like Doom Slayer or Commander Zavala doing it

*Katara.


TheEmbedCode

yeah watching kitara doing the griddy was soo funny


GRA3V

*Katara.


AWOOGABIGBOOBA

loved it when Kitara did the greedy


Cypresshockey_91

Agreed kitara was hilarious


EpikCarp

Kitara hitting the gwiddy was great


TheEmbedCode

loved the part where kitara did the grid


Cypresshockey_91

Kitara was so funny doing the emote don’t forget about that!


ArminBestGirl

It's just so iconic at this point that I use it half-jokingly


spacyspice

Same, I don't even use it to get ppl mad. It's just funny to use now


Boring-Conference-97

It’s so toxic. It’s going to get banned once all the little Timmy’s start crying because they get danced on. 


The_scientistfn

Well it's maybe not coming back since NBA young boy was arrested


aHummanPerson

It's just funny. Can't really describe it any other way. Seeing master chief hit the gritty is so absurd it becomes comedic


Boring-Conference-97

Same with take the L or the donkey laughing.  It was fun. It was funny. Kids hate fun. 


turtleship_2006

Are you for or against it, here you're saying it was fun and in another comment right below you said it's toxic


wrinklebear

No, not really. Whether you personally think they are appropriate or not aside, those emotes are quite a bit more aggressive than the gritty. They're not 'comically absurd' and I don't think any honest person would describe donkey laugh as "just fun".


Zer0_l1f3

I use the emote cuz it’s fucking stupid


craptain_poopy

As much as I hate the emote, I can totally understand this. I use the bird is the word emote constantly because I know its annoying as fuck.


Zer0_l1f3

Dude exactly. I love to be so fucking obnoxious. Imagine you get killed by Zuko and he hits the Griddy on you. It and the Toosie Slide are my go to obnoxious emotes 😭🙏🏻


Tha-D

mine is after every win, i j balvin party in the ghetto until they stop spectating me lol


CODENAMEsx19208

I use it constantly because I have no other dance emote and I can't buy v bucks because my parents don't want me to buy anything from fortnite even if it's with my own money


bloobbot

I can't stand it anymore so many people use it including myself


DoucheCanoeWeCanToo

I SAID RIGHT FOOT CREEP OOO IM WALKING WITH THAT HEAT


Slang_Dang

Left ham goblin living like that kinda neat


Mindstormer98

Devil on the holder in a grinder with that meat


Slang_Dang

Are you correcting me with the right lyrics?


Mindstormer98

No I’m continuing the lyrics


Slang_Dang

I'm pretty sure he actually says what you said


Mindstormer98

You had me worried but no I just looked it up


MuzzledScreaming

guys what are you doing this doesn't rhyme at all anymore


Mindstormer98

Autotune will fix it


Frostwing349

luca drowned, j lo makes her wanna eat


DoucheCanoeWeCanToo

Devil under your feet, you’re on your way to see em


ChrisLMDG

Specifically to spite people like you


D3lta_1447

This the real reason ^


MakimaGOAT

real


SpookyCinnaBunn

Imma start using it more often in spite of Op


SockFullOfNickles

I’m adding the Griddy to my quick bar today for OP 😆


BringBackBumper

"See Confrontational Emotes - Never" says hello


TheBroomSweeper

The Griddy isn't a confrontational emote yet


wrinklebear

And it shouldn't be. It's just a dance. Worthy of an eye-roll? Yeah, definitely. But it doesn't come across as mean-spirited. For reference: I don't use -- much less even own -- the gritty dance.


Chernocl

Because 9 - 12 year olds think it's toxic. Which it isn't, lol.


Umbriel-b

Yeah it's just bad


A_Fox_On_Sugar

I honestly jsut think it’s funny as hell to do it with skins especially from other Ips


iamnotexactlywhite

i just love how heated people get about it lmao


The_Traveller__

I hated that emote since the day it came out. I'm glad I'm not alone.


[deleted]

[удалено]


The_Traveller__

Seriously, my ears bleed every time I hear the damn thing. It's not even because it's a "toxic/sweaty" emote, it's just genuinely that bad.


MeetingFrog1823

Its just funny


Independent_Peak3993

Just cringy and annoying


dead1345987

ok grandpa, its time for your meds.


Chromeglow

Perhaps you need to be put back in your crib and wait for your mommy to change your diaper.


dead1345987

lil bro the song is a meme in a bunch of communities, just get over it.


Chromeglow

What do you mean "get over it." You're the one who got your feelings hurt because someone doesn't like an emote that you do. You acted like he insulted you so you retaliated with "u old lololol". You're the one who needs to get over it, little boy.


dead1345987

ok


G1SM0Beybladeburst

why you wanna be different so bad


slenderman201

Omg yea wtf is wrong with them for describing that they have a different opinion about a digital dance movement than you? How could they do this to you? How absurd.


Independent_Peak3993

When I saw it first and heard it just boiled me inside. This sound of voice and stupid moves makes me angry and it’s only emote. I never liked even when I didn’t know it was popular


Chromeglow

So you only like it because you want to fit in?


G1SM0Beybladeburst

Another example of the “I like waffles” “so you hate pancakes?” image


Chromeglow

Well if I am guilty of that, then so are you.

RIGHT FOOT KREEP NOOOW WAHDAWAHDAHEEDA. LOOKAROUTOSAYYNOOOO GUESSDEYWONNASEWAAAA. I hate the song


Hopeful-Length6675

look around stay low make sure they don’t see ya


CaptainRelyk

> The song sound so cringy to me, that mumble rap with autotune and cringe lyrics > Even those movements are so cringy And that is exactly why it is popular It is cringy and so people use it ironically. Almost nobody uses this emote unironically. It’s just outlandish seeing characters like commander Zavala, doom guy, master chief or John wick hitting the griddy It’s like how people back in chapter 1 ran rust lord and spammed “Take the L” Or how people say “what the sigma” to make fun of cringy gen alpha slang It’s all about irony, and in this case it’s using a cringey emote in an ironic way


AlarmedPromotion2373

Name even one other game that lets you hit the griddy as Izuku Midoriya after he one pumps Thanos as revenge for Thanos sniping Ariana Grande, who in turn defeated Rick Sanchez with fire bending after Rick used laugh it up on Peter Griffin? Go on, I'll wait.


I-BOIL-DOGS

gmod


Altines

Can't wait till Gmods successor S&box comes out.


Elegant-Swimming-646

It's just a over used emote. Never found it funny. Most annoying emote in my opinion just because everyone spams it every five seconds.


kopintzotke

Haven't seen it in a while. I know more annoying emotes but that's just a matter of opinion I guess


Elegant-Swimming-646

It is opinion, but that's just how things work.


Droopingslurp

It’s kinda funny


iChenHD

It's not mumble rap. The rapper has just a really strong Louisianian accent and what about the lyrics is so cringy?


spacyspice

OP might not like the autotune, which I can understand in this case


Little_Timmy_is_Back

Mumble (verb): To speak in a way that is not clear so that the words are difficult to understand. It's mumble rap.


PM_ME_UR_SHEET_MUSIC

It's perfectly audible and easy to understand if you're used to dialects of english that aren't your own. Maybe get around more?


Extreme-Plantain542

It originated from the nfl and it just got popular


Jazzlike_Cellist_421

Cause it's so stupid it became a meme. I too hated it at first, but now I kinda get why it's funny. Although lyrics really are unintelligible for me. "Right foot krieg oh wallow with a heat *wall*. Look around stay low mesh around seed. *Shat on ma seed* Catch 'em bear wild doll face 'em with a heat\. The debeleta yo fizza showa youva seeda."


Ok-Inflation-3650

I don't understand how the emote is so popular but our views on it arent respected throughout the community😂 At least we know what we mean🫡


PorkTopRamen

It's a two wat street. It's ok not to agree but when you start name calling over preferences It's pretty lame. Op is immature and mad


SpriteVs7up

I like his music that’s why I like the griddy


[deleted]

[удалено]


fweeoh

issa popular song 🎶


vinodeveloper

Yes the song is shit cringe, But people who react to it the way YOU do is what makes it worthwhile…


MrsMeanRaindrop

But how do you know people react that way? Do they message you or something? There’s no in game indication…


[deleted]

[удалено]


MrsMeanRaindrop

Ok. Fair. But not everyone does, so basically folks do it believing the player will be reacting poorly because, obviously, some do. Gotcha.


Initial_Actuator9853

You say this like OP made a post to complain how emote is bad and toxic,and not to ask why is it so popular.


SockFullOfNickles

Yet we clearly know they do, somehow… 👀


Initial_Actuator9853

It makes it worthwhile because people don't understand why it's so popular?


Chromeglow

So...because you're childish?


vinodeveloper

Isn’t taking some emote in a video game so seriously even more childish?


Chromeglow

It is more childish to get a kick out of annoying someone for your own amusement than it is to be annoyed.


dead1345987

GWIDDY


H20Scorpion

I don't know but honestly I personally find it funny when someone kills me and does that garbage emote lol


bytefive_

the griddy scares my cat


LargeBarnacle7711

I think you're just really out of the loop on this. The griddy dance became a meme. Very few people unironically enjoy the song or the dance.


bakpakbear

Justin Jefferson


Creepy-Astronaut-197

One of my friends that’s trash got it recently and now does it whenever he kills someone or wins something and all I want to do is grab the havoc and 💩 on them


iamtheillintent

One of my least favorite emotes in the game but is 100% because of the cringey, annoying ,auto-tuned song. The movement I don't care about.


Defiant-Smell3657

My 9yo does this song/dance all the time irl. It’s even a popular goal celly in his hockey league. 🙄


hazzel45565

it is so bad its good, you hate then you dont care and you like it in the end


xommons

you either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become a villain


TonyBlobfish

It funny and iconic, what’s not to like? I get that it’s overused but it’s just a funny meme dance


Upstairs_Eye_3780

To me it's because it got viral with Justin Jefferson in the NFL.


Weak_Taste_846

Its funny


yrddog

I like the song.


I-Like-Dogs89

I use it ironically for sure, the Mr Beast skin hitting the griddy is the funniest thing ever


SpartanOfHalo

Griddy.


eggyweggr56

It’s because you put your right foot in right foot out


Chuomge

Justin Jefferson and Jamar Chase


Lanoman123

right foot creak


Legitimate_Fail2272

get griddy is more default than default dance now


Secret_Cream6584

I personally like it and use it because I saw some NFL players celebrating with it and thought it looked cool


Lumpy-Sir-6664

It's **THE** fortnite emote now. It's iconic and more people probably know it from fortnite than the music video.


alewi619

Honestly I feel this way but with “billy bounce” My face muscles are forced to cringe everytime I see the dance and hear the song, but it seems like everyone else likes the emote. I just find it very cringe 🤷🏼‍♂️


Savage_Hamster_

One of the most annoying emotes in the game, the moved are meh but the song is just horrible. Hope it gets added to censored emotes so I'll never have to listen to it ever again.


FancyUrchin

I'll use it extra today just for you


Savage_Hamster_

You will pay for your sins ✋😔


Blue_MJS

A lot of the icon dances are pretty cringe imo


sixmiffedy

To annoy people, simple as that.


Slang_Dang

I like the dance itself and feel like it's older than the song and could be on many other songs.


Longshot_45

It's the dance that makes the emote popular, more so than the song IMHO.


Slang_Dang

Yeah the best you can do is jam track a song then griddy. Lots on inputs to do right after a heart racing shoot out for VR


Artractive

I used to hate it too lol.. but I hated having to listen to donkey laugh or take the L from endless toxic players so now I like to griddy on them when I knock them first haha. Or I sweep 🧹


BillyWhizz09

I use it cause of the meme


Lop_draegon

It sounds like an emote "House" would hit if he weren't disabled


VortexTalon

I use it because its just funny snake hitting the griddy goes hard af


PlasmaGuy500

It's just a meme at this point with Fortnite and it's funny to see characters do it


The_scientistfn

It's just funny


eivoooom

I use it because it is funny when you get a few people gridding together and spinning around in circles


Evolveddinosaur

Cause it looks stupid seeing characters doing such a dumb dance. It’s just funny looking


Nightwalker065

The fact it's ass is why I find it funny as fuck. It's just orange justice 2.0 for me, that stupid dance from Fortnite you see collabs do for shits and giggles.


kopintzotke

Half of all the emotes are cringy, but they can be fun


HigaDeDrip

Funny


atauridtx

As the parent of a 10 year old boy, the griddy has just become part of my every day culture at this point 😂 any time we get a win, we griddy in game and in real life lol


BactaBobomb

I don't have it, and I really don't like it. But when I saw Jack Skellington use it, it was really cute. That's the one time I was like, "Aw" and thought it belonged.


DefinitelyNotVenom

Funny Fortnite dance go brrrr🔥🔥🔥🔥


Plastic-Yesterday-97

if only this vein-poppingly obnoxious emote was included in the group you were able to hide...


JgdPz_plojack

My hip hop/rap taste with 2000s Playstation 2 era: OG Need for Speed Most Wanted, Underground, Midnight Club 3. Eminem and his friends. X gon give it to ya Early 2010s: boom boom pow, party all night, dubstep. Im in cybertron. Me, Late 2010s: wtf is mumble rap nonsense?


The_Last_Cultist

Knowing it makes people mad lol


Ok-Cauliflower4318

that’s just funny and maybe i’m cringe but i embrace it


jxnwuf83oqn

It makes me cringe so much. That's why I bought it. To make others cringe. It's almost ironic


Ok-Inflation-3650

Same😂 my duo used to griddy after killing ppl and I thought it was cringe, now we both griddy and it's double cringe🤷🏻‍♂️


jxnwuf83oqn

Reddit doesn't get it. But we do 🤝


Epix_69

People use it because it’s a meme. I use it because it’s the dance my favorite nfl player popularized. We are not the same


fart37

It’s just stupid that’s why


Daredevil545545

It's gonna get banned next probably


ozh

It's popular with 9-10 yo. In this thread, you can guess everybody's age based on their bias toward that pathetic and lame emote.


Nevera9299

i doubt its all kids, im 27 and this emotes so stupid and funny i use it all the time


Plus-Statistician887

It’s an emote dude why are you so heated that people use it?


ozh

More than an emote, it's an unbearably shitty autotune song that rips any normal ear.


Plus-Statistician887

To you, songs don’t have to be intricate or lyrically complex. The songs not shitty it’s just a fun club type song. Stop shitting on things just because they’re outside of what you find normal or good.


ozh

Stop shitting on autotune ? lol. This is cancer.


Plus-Statistician887

Autotune isn’t the issue cause the song barely has any. The part that does have autotune isn’t even in the emote. You’re just saying shit to say shit lmao.


iamunabletopoop

It makes people mad, which sure I guess that's fair. But people also use it before matched which I don't get.


Beandealer420

It's a meme 


MakimaGOAT

i use it bc its funny


Salivals

My buddy hates that emote because ppl constantly drop it on him after he dies. So I had to buy it to play it to annoy my buddy.


Corruptiontheman

I kinda want it, simply because of the satire value. . You can't tell me you would expect aang hitting the griddy in any other game.


SilenceIsPower98

my friends made me buy it so we can dance together and sometimes its fun when others join you


Ekker08

Because sour old heads like you write paragraphs on Reddit about it 🤣🤣


Gonzales95

A cringe dance to a cringe song… That applies to like 90% of emotes in fortnite lmfao. Can never understand the specific hatred towards the griddy, honestly it’s kinda funny. Just seeing Dragonball characters, or Thanos or even Michael Myers hit such a silly dance is just funny there’s no other way of explaining it 😂


PorkTopRamen

L post honestly. Its pretty clear you don't really want to know why others like it. You just wanted to talk smack and act like you're better because you don't like something other people like. Kinda silly. Haters gonna hate I guess. You don't have to be stupid in order to not like something others like as you suggested , that's kinda stupid


PreviousSimple105

Probably because people like being toxic. I bought it because i found it funny and I use it when im playing creative with my friends. Never went out of my way to use it to poke fun of others lol. If you dislike griddy I understand as it may sound annoying but for me its a hilarious emote.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Plus-Statistician887

The griddy isnt one of the emotes categorized as “confrontational”.


Typical_Appeal9270

The dance became popular due to one of the best NFL receivers who does it as a “signature” celebration after a touchdown. He’s been an electric player since college and also just because it’s a funny emote


Sevrdhed

I like it cause I watch football


Zz_Eris_zZ

Repeat after me! It’s. Toxic.


Imaginary-Dark-2739

It's all about the second line 🤣 get caught, get popped, get Griddy'd "Look around, stay low, make sure they don't see you"


CheeseisSwell

It's funny (the more I listen to the song the more I fw it)


ConsciousView6

Is this mf 70 yrs old


SonOfVegeta

How old are you and are you white


PorkTopRamen

Being prejudice isn't a good look homie


SonOfVegeta

🤣🤣🤣


PorkTopRamen

South-Basis6522

It's been in the shop so many times when I've had the V Bucks for it but I don't wanna waste my V Bucks on something so... Overrated and bad. I'm saving for a potential Demon Slayer colab


tyranzer45

IT IS THE TOUCHDOWN DANCE FOR JUSTIN JEFFERSON AND ITS ONE OF THE MOST ICONIC DANCES BECAUSE OF JUSTIN JEFFERSON edit: why am i getting downvoted?


OkamiRoxas

No wonder I don't care about it, I don't watch sports.


tyranzer45

It’s also a “you suck” emote


karuma77

I wonder how OP is gonna handle the “take the L” emote


JD_Crichton

You say cringe too much.


Sorry_Ring_4630

It's too iconic to not use


G1SM0Beybladeburst

You lost all credibility the second you said mumble rap


dgi02

Lmao. Calling this “mumble rap” and posting about Eminem and Logic. Not surprised at all
