Dubs Guy / “Check ’Em”
Part of a series on GET. [View Related Entries]
About
Dubs Guy, or Doubles Guy, refers to an image of the protagonist Partrick Bateman (played by Christian Bale) from the 2000 black comedy film American Psycho, which is used on 4chan in anticipation of submitting a "GET" post ending in double-digits. The image is often accompanied by the phrase "check em," alerting viewers to examine the post number.
Origin
The still image comes from a scene in American Psycho in which the protagonist Patrick Bateman murders his business rival Paul Allen (played by Jared Leto) after a lengthy commentary on Huey Lewis and the News (shown below).
On 4chan, the phenomena of predicting post numbers gradually formed into what is known as a "GET". It is unclear when the image of Patrick Bateman became associated with posts ending in double numbers, but the earliest search queries for "dubs guy" on Google date back to early 2010 according to Google Trends.[2]
