About

Absolutely Barbaric refers to a variation of the Absolutely Disgusting image macro series that features an illustration of a Roman soldier captioned "Absolutely Barbaric." It was initially used in reaction to examples of one person trolling or owning another, but in early 2017, spiked in popularity as a reaction image to something the poster thinks is improper food or life etiquette.

Precursor

The image of a Roman soldier associated with "Absolutely Barbaric" first appeared on the internet in 2011 as a variation of Come at Me Bro where the phrase "Come at me bro" was translated into Latin.[1]

VENITE AD MEFRATRER

Origin

The "Absolutely Barbaric" soldier comes from a book titled "Myths and Legends" by Roger Payne.[6] While the first "Absolutely Barbaric" variation of the picture is unknown, one of the earliest known posts to use the image was posted by Funnyjunk user comradewinter[2] on September 6th, 2014 (shown below).

In early January, 2017, the image began surging in popularity on 9GAG. 9GAG user publius_scipio published the first post to grow popular with the image, titled "My reaction after my friend puts milk in his bowl and then cereal."[4] The image has gained 19,937 points as of January 9th, 2017.
