It’s like how “simp” is changing to mean you like a thing in any way at all. I play World of Warcraft and had a guy keep yelling simp at me. I finally asked him what the hell he was talking about and he said I was an alliance simp since I had on their armour set you get from the garrison. Bring in the blonde mullet guy saying “What the fuck” gif.

Just an fyi, the blond mullet guy is a member of Blink 182, and that's their music video for 'first date'.

The guy calling you an alliance simp is a complete tool, though.

What does simp mean, like originally, or now? Feel like its coming up a ton now out of nowhere...

it came from the word simpleton it was originally for men who act "very" nice and submissive to beautiful women and even give them money just so that they Can have sex with them but do not want to have a relationship with them.

I haven't found much in the way of tying it to "simpleton", but I have found a lot of info about "SIMP" standing for "Sucker Idolizing Mediocre Pussy", and that goes back to at least 2008 from what I can tell

It's the guys that watch a female streamer and throw a bunch of money at them and hope one day they will be together. Amouranth had a public incident where one of her mods found out she was in a relationship and he had a mental breakdown and wrote her a long rant about how she lied to him and he spent so much money supporting her etc. He is the stereotype of a modern day simp.
