Japanese Crab

Japanese Crab was perhaps the most short-lived meme on Rhythm Gehenna. While the server is known to beat memes to death at an astonishing rate, Japanese Crab lasted upwards of around 2 hours before nobody wanted to hear it ever again.
== History ==
Japanese Crab was first mentioned on March 7, 2021 by eno during DJ's drawing stream. Humoring the concept, DJ sketched the crab, unaware of the hell to come.
Not long after the image was posted, Epic Hax Guy announced there would be a Wipeout stream shortly. As expected, many members joined to watch Wipeout and gain the Wipeout Watcher role. Shortly before the event started, eno, now nicknamed "japanese crab", joined the stream and posted Japanese Crab. Almost immediately, many of the members, both in the #events-vc channel and in the voice chat itself began parroting "Japanese Crab" in the same tone and inflection. This continued for several minutes before Epic Hax Guy threatened to pause the stream if they didn't stop. Afterwards, the praise of Japanese Crab gradually died out.
== Legacy ==
While Japanese Crab came as quickly as it went, it is still mentioned on occasion as a callback to the Wipeout stream. "Crabswitcher", a sketch of a Stepswitcher with the body of Japanese Crab, remains pinned in #events-vc as a stark reminder of that day. Several other sketches were made on request, although they have not been pinned. Only one user who still supports Japanese Crab is active, and can be summoned at any time by using "+t makeyoumad" in the bot channel.
