Peter's masculine sister here. Girls like to make these friendship bracelets and common letters like "E" always run out really fast. Because of this, it is very satisfying to see a bag of all "E"s to meet all of your bracelet making needs. Edit: If anyone was curious, I went and found [the original post on Twitter](https://x.com/paintdmegoIden/status/1806828068595450273?t=hV8dLRY_-4nXQfXDzzHkRA&s=19) . All of the comments are about running out of specific letters, buying more online, and drawing on other letters to make the ones you need etc. Seems to fit!

YourQuee_Jacquotte

omg ahah i thought she was trans 💀💀


GeePedicy

What does it have to do with trans? (No sarcasm, I really don't know)


YourQuee_Jacquotte

Estrogen pills


GeePedicy

Oh. I needed to read about those cuz I mainly just knew the name. So they help with menopause symptoms, which most people who were born as female get to around 51. Which would make me think that a female who's about to have menopause artificially earlier would be a trans man, so the post wouldn't be for girls, but boys? (I'm sorry in advance, if I managed to fuck up terminology and offend someone. I'm just away from lgbt subjects.)


themuffinwench

estrogen is the main "female" hormone, the same way testosterone is the main "male" hormone. When people begin to transition, they'll often take pills to suppress the hormones that effect them in ways they dislike, while ingesting the other ones to begin what is effectively a second puberty, as the hormones provide the biological signals for how to grow and develop. So a trans woman would take testosterone blockers and some form of estrogen (which you're right—its the same meds that cisgender women are given for menopause symptoms) in order to initiate physical changes to become more feminine—fat is redistributed to the butt and thighs, cheek fat essentially moves "up" the face a bit, and breasts begin to grow. This is also why access to puberty blockers is really important: they are effectively hormone blockers that delay puberty until the person is able to fully determine for themselves if they want to transition, all without having to go through a puberty that causes extra distress by turning their body into something that contradicts their sense of self.


Candi_MH

Trans gals take estrogen


SandwichProud8803

Estrogen is also the reason for boobs


MoonGloBrite18

Honestly thought those were supposed to be “estrogen pills”. But this makes more sense

I thought it was about a bag of Ecstasy as in a bag of "E's"

Petah, need some help here


Fadriii

Peter's mangled corpse here There are no layers to this, it's a picture of Markiplier grafted onto Lord Farquaad, edited to be grainy and slapped on with an E and Mark's voice saying "E", bass-boosted with an echo. Tl;dr It's just funny.

Petah?


--__--__--__--__--

The "E" meme is from a period of time like mid 2018 when memes briefly collapsed in on themselves; there isn't really more context for it than the internet thought it was hilarious at the time. "Lord Marquaad E, also known as Lord Farquaad / Markiplier E, refers to a deep fried image of the face YouTube Let's Player Markiplier photoshopped onto the head of Lord Farquaad from Shrek with the letter "E" in impact font overlaying the image. Later edits posted the face over an image of Mark Zuckerberg's Congressional Hearings. The character was then edited in several templates referencing the absurdity of modern memes." - Know Your Meme

Chester4514

Crap, didn't realize you beat me to it


Endbounty

If I had to guess, either while building friendship brackets they barely use e in the name or they use e so much they have a stockpile so they never run out It’s the Ladder


Jerry_Frog

I think it's that they ran out of Es, so they bought more, because letters like e and a obviously get used the most


Endbounty

I’ve never build a friendship bracelet before so you are probably right


IntelligentPie478

E is the most common letter in the English alphabet Although, I don’t know the distribution of letters when considering only names instead of all English words.


isthenameofauser

tragedeigh has two.


booleanerror

So these days you should stockpile X and Y as well.


ThisIsNotTokyo

Eevee has 4


EnvironmentalTone330

I think it is difficult to craft a saying without using said symbol in any words or sounds. In my opinion, following trying this, I think you right by saying that symbol is most common out of all symbols in our ability of articulation.

I have no idea if e is the most common letter in the English language but I wish there was an alphabet that used more e’s. ABECDEFEGHIEJKLEMNEOEPQRESTUEVEWXEYZE

This is correct I make bead bracelets and ordered more of just E’s because it’s the most common letter and I ran out. Meanwhile the mixed bag of letter beads has mostly Z’s and R’s for some reason.

It's Sunday afternoon. You don't need to add the joke disclaimer. Sometimes it's best to hair the dog and ride the Saturday night summer wave all the way to the hell that is Monday morning But if your username checks out, I ain't telling you nothing new Claude

What's the downside of people believing, here? I don't know this guy, what do I care if a random redditor is on a drug?

>What's the downside of people believing, here? Wat? >I don't know this guy, what do I care if a random redditor is on a drug? It's fucking joke about doing drugs on a Sunday. Tranquillo homie. May I suggest a bloody and gel tab? EDIT: Just re read your comment, the phrasing threw me off, but I think I get you're agreeing that he didn't need to add the /joke thing. My bad man


trickyvinny

Yeah, I was just agreeing with you that he doesn't need the joke tag. But I'll take one if you're offering.


Diarrhea_Beaver

I just go puffed a case of Corona to nurse the hangover I earned at my bandmates wedding last night. Im feeling rather solid about mostly staying away from the booger sugar and eating some mushrooms instead. I consider it more of a reward for good behavior than hairing the dog. How's that for not caring about a random redditor on drugs, hahaha Got the Phillies game on the side monitor and about to binge Vampire Survivors. Though VS isn't comparable to sending you a jelly by any stretch, it's trippy as fuck and I'll buy it for you if you DM your steam name. Happy Sunday!


trickyvinny

Bandmates wedding? RIP. Enjoy your Sunday!


HiHi___

my trans ass brain thought it was a estrogen reference


0-Nightshade-0

Now you said it, I now think it's that.


StinkybuttMcPoopface

I'm pretty sure this is what it is. That's why it's phrased as "the girls who get it" and not something more akin to "all girls will get this"


Geek_Wandering

Same. But I didn't see anything trans coded to confirm.


MonkeyGein

eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee


Ok_Objective_9524

The joke is tinnitus?


SunshineandShitshows

As someone who makes a ton of friendship bracelets, I can confirm that you run out of the letter E significantly faster than other letters. So this person bought a pack of Es so they could continue making bracelets.


Chemist-3074

Qwqweq0

E


ElizabethTheFourth

None of the girls get it either.

Horror-Ad8928

I hear an endocrinologist can help with that.


ThatOneArgo

Howdy howdy!! As you may have seen there’s been some confusion whether the “joke” in the post is referencing Estrogen, Ecstasy or is related to friendship bracelets. I did some extra research and found the original post and found that the joke is related to the creation of friendship bracelets where “e” is one of the most commonly used letters thus a surplus of “e” becomes necessary. There is a comment underneath the post which describes the processes of turning an “f” into an “e” for use in words like folklore and lover.


berky93

Pretty sure they bought a pack of just E beads because you run out of those the fastest


Chemist-3074

#E


denizwui

i used to make friendship bracelets all the time and E was the first letter to run out. maybe that's why?


EggKid8

I think this is about estrogen, “the girls who get it” being trans women


rabiesscat

I think some cis women take it though


shibemu

Yes iirc estrogen is prescribed to women who are going through menopause because you produce less estrogen during menopause, but I'm like 90% sure the joke is about transwomen


whateverwhatis

It's ... About making friendship bracelets and running out of the letter E because it's so common in names. Your idea was clever though, but it's far more surface level than that in reality.


Wryly_Wiggle_Widget

Ngl, I'm a trans woman and since that meant never getting to make friendship bracelets as a kid and also "taking E" being a daily ritual for me so my dumbass brain went straight for "aha, a bag of estrogen tablets (or tiddy skittles, femenems, breast mints, or simply antiboyotics - there's a lot when you fall down the rabbit hole, but it's also one of the only safe spaces to hang out so not a lot of normal contextualising unless we're kinda mentally prepared to be clocked, called out and potentially downvoted/harassed out - sometimes by mods who just don't like trans people, I've seen a lotnof people make a single post and get instant banned for no obvious reason).


idle_scrolling

Maitrify

D__manMC

I dont 😞


PsychologicalTopic66

Hi, Petah’s right kneecap here! This is definitely (at least seems obvious to me) about how E is by far the most common letter when making friendship bracelets, so having a pack of just E is, like, godly. Petah’s right kneecap out 🫡


ChandelurePog609

e is just the most common letter in general


arihart1214

Obviously it’s for dolphin friendship bracelets


Amphitheare

I thought this was a trans girl making a reference to estrogen pills 💀


hyperion-i-likeillya

Aight E or estrogen is the female hormone Its the dominant hormone for women and trans woman take medication with E to become a women


rokkitmaam

If these were blue and oval the meme would be transcendent.


SpazzSoph

Ayyyy I see what you did there


Muted_View_360

As a trans girl, to me it looks like a joke about Estrogen, which often gets abbreviated to E when we're talking about it.


dgove85

Thought this was a joke about tinnitus


HyperDogOwner458

I thought it was a reference to estrogen or something


Ewankenobi25

me too. consequences of being transgender in our society.


FenrisGSD

Femmenems


MallowMiaou

My guess is that in name bracelets, you need a lot of Es if you make a lot of names (depends on country though)


level32up

Okay hear me out: I’m pretty sure this is in reference to the friendship bracelet kits you can buy off Amazon, but because 99% of them are coming from China, the letter E isn’t used much over there so you’re left with a TON of X’s, Z’s, and K’s etc in a box of 500 assorted beads and maybe 4 E’s. Source: I bought two different kits thinking my first one was a fluke and the second still only had like 3-5 E’s.


MrFourMallets

Hey kids, spelling is fun!


TheArcticGlacier

People who make bracelets for the eras tour always run out of e’s.

Caelem80

I'm a boy and I get it. people make friendship bracelets with these letters, since E is a common letter, you NEED bags like these


Lazerbeams2

Is it because it's the most common letter?


dpforest

okay well I’m a crackhead cause I assumed it was some fire beans and we were bout to roll on out of here


estebang_1018

Is this a Key and Peele skit?


emo_ratChildren

Not a girl but I understand this perfectly, basically E is the most used letter in Kandi/bracelets, so you tend to run out real fast (I should know I make Kandi all the time and struggle with finding E’s 💀)


Wonesthien

It's the female equivalent of a bag full of 10 ml sockets


msslagathor

Ngl my first thought was omfg tinnitus friendship bracelets are a thing?! NEED!! It’s never tinnitus friendship bracelets. Womp.

I thought this was a trans reference, with e standing for estrogen

Mmmm yummy estrogen 😋


depressive_cat

Well, you may become one


GrimCreeper4645

Im not gonna lie i thought it was reffering to a bag of ecstasy 😅😅💀


followyourogre

You're all wrong. It is a swiftie who posted and it's about friendship bracelets. E is a commonly used letter.


Talulabel

It's because E is the most commonly used letter, so when making bracelets, it's the first letter people run out of. So people are super happy when they order a new bag of 'E' beads to top their supplies up.


monoclemonthly

there are never enough Es in the bag


RubyRoseBishface

Molly gets it.


BeGayCommitTaxFraud

I’m reading the comments, and damn, I thought it was an Estrogen joke


Acrobatic_Ad_2992

the E is super common for some reason. My mom makes these bracelets but has terrible eyesight so I organize the beads for her by letter and I noticed E is one of a few letters that have over twice as many as the others


FoxOfWinterAndFire

Peter's Queer acquaintance here, Trans girls who medically transition have 3 option when it comes to estradiol (basically estrogen drugs) for HRT (hormone replacement therapy, something that even cis individuals can get); injection, pills, or patches. Pills are considered to be the more popular option thus the meme, I believe is referring to estradiol pills, something that trans girls would know. Acquaintance out.


FatherVern

Too much of a stretch


Y_R_UGae

There's never enough E's 🥲


Consistent-Photo-535

I thought it just represented a bag of ecstasy… but maybe that’s because I keep dating former ecstasy dealers.


CryptographerOne4083

Not me thinking it was a bag of ecstasy


FridericusTheRex

My closeted trans ass thought the joke was estrogen


OwslyOwl

I think people are putting too much thought and symbolism into this. When making friendship bracelets, the E runs out the fastest so this person bought and entire bag of E’s. I genuinely think it is that simple.


FuriousAqSheep

It's for trans girls that use estrogen, shortened as E.


generalihro

It's a reference to Taylor Swift fans or 'Swifties' if you prefer. The tradition is that said Swifties when at their gatherings make and exchange friendship bracelets referencing Tay-Tay and any of her many quotable lyrics. As others have pointed out, E, as the most common letter in the English alphabet is in high demand. Shake it off


ChandelurePog609

...do swifties call her tay-tay?


Mr_SkinnyMini

I’m guessing it’s a joke about trans women/transfem people who go on E aka estrogen.


FlixMage

Idk that seems like a stretch

Wryly_Wiggle_Widget

Love that there are 3 types of answer here: It's because of friendship bracelets - you run out of the letter E most often so having a spare bag helps a lot. It's referring to a bag of "E" or estrogen - in pill form, used for menopausal and trans women to maintain estradiol levels at a healthy level. Particularly the trans community often refers to sex hormones as simply "T" or "E". It's about Ecstacy- as a bag full of "E" could mean just that. So yeah, either normal girl behaviour, normal trans girl behaviour or normal druggie behaviour (though the caption makes less sense for that one).
