About
Jinky Minus is a fake Star Wars character made up by TikToker @jaycote in a skit poking fun at the bizarre names of Star Wars characters, similar to the Glup Shitto meme. In his skit, he depicts "Jinky Minus" as the Bugle Monster from Courage the Cowardly Dog, better known as the creature that tells Courage, "You're not perfect." This led to brainrot videos and memes labeling the Bugle Monster "Jinky Minus" spreading in the autumn of 2024.
Origin
On September 3rd, 2024, TikToker Jaycote[1] posted a skit making fun of obsessive Star Wars fans in which he says a series of names both real and made up from the franchise. In the first line, he mentions "Jinky Minus," a made-up character. When he says the name, the Bugle Monster[2] from Courage the Cowardly Dog appears on the screen. The TikTok gained 367,000 likes in six weeks.
