About

I Don't Care How Salty I Sound refers to a copypasta started by a gamer who was salty over the character Peacock in the fighting game Skullgirls. After posting a tweet complaining about how Peacock damaged the game's competitive integrity, going so far as to say Skullgirls was "no different than Mario Party" due to the inclusion of Peacock, Twitter users mocked the tweet by copying its text and tweaking some details to make it apply to other video games.

Origin

On April 17th, 2022, Twitter user @dekillsage[1] tweeted, "I dont care how salty i sound. As long as peacock exists i will never respect this game as competitive. Theres no such thing as being "good" at a game with peacock in it. Skullgirls is the exact same thing as mario party until peacock is removed." The tweet gained over 160 retweets, 90 quote tweets, and 2,000 likes in one day (shown below).
