Hell Yeah Brother, Cheers From Iraq
About
Hell Yeah Brother, Cheers From Iraq is a copypasta popular on Reddit that apparently originated from an American soldier in the Iraq war responding to an answer in a thread on /r/NFL.
Origin
On August 17th, 2018, Redditor killerkure123 posted the query "If you had to replace any 3rd string CB with anyone from the same division as you who would it be and why?" to /r/NFL, gaining over 330 points.[1] User strangedaze23 cleverly suggested New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady instead of a cornerback, because "then he wouldn't play." In appreciation, killerkure123 responded "Hell yeah brother, cheers from Iraq," gaining over 2,200 points.
Spread
The following day, the comment was posted on /r/copypasta[2] where it gained 11 points. From there, it began appearing in multiple sports-based subreddits. Examples can be found on /r/nflcirclejerk,[3] /r/Browns,[4] and /r/AtlantaHawks.[5] The copypasta also grew very popular on the Kanye West subforum /r/Kanye, where it has been posted multiple times.[6][7][8] The popularity of the post led to an inquiry on /r/OutOfTheLoop[9] that gained 61 points.
