NEW YORK: Twitch sensation Kai Cenat, who notably popularized the slang "Rizz", is now causing a stir with the term "Fanum Tax," which is used anytime someone attempts to "yoink" your food. But how did the term come into existence?
The 'Fanum Tax' trend has become a recurring event during Kai's streams whenever there is food present and has gained immense popularity, amassing an astonishing 321 million views on TikTok as of 2023.
Origin and significance of Fanum Tax
The term 'Fanum Tax' may sound peculiar to some, but for the followers of popular Twitch streamer Kai Cenat, it's become a familiar and humorous part of their online vocabulary.
The origins of 'Fanum Tax' can be traced back to a particular incident that unfolded during one of Kai Cenat's Twitch streams in December 2022.
During this memorable live stream, Fanum, another well-known Twitch streamer, made an unexpected entrance into Kai's room while he was actively broadcasting.
Kai, holding a substantial plate of cookies at the time, had his tasty snack promptly snatched away by Fanum before he exited the room, leaving Kai and his viewers in fits of laughter.
This incident marked the birth of what we now know as the 'Fanum Tax.'
The 'Fanum Tax' has since become a recurring and delightful feature of Kai's streams, especially when food is involved.
The concept quickly gained traction, making its way to the broader online community, and as of 2023, it boasts an astonishing 321 million views on TikTok. This unprecedented popularity attests to its universal appeal and humor.
The essence of the 'Fanum Tax' is simple: it represents the act of someone "yoinking" your food when you least expect it. It's a playful, light-hearted way to describe an incident where someone claims a portion of your meal, often with a touch of comedic flair.
However, the term has also taken on an ironic dimension within the online lexicon. Some older creators employ it to jestingly tease the younger generation for their excessive use of internet slang.
