About

My First Day at Gay High School is a Gacha Life viral video and image of a character in a green shirt named Charlie saying, "It's my first day at gay high school, I hope they don't realize I'm straight." The earliest available upload of the video was posted to YouTube in 2020 and gained viral spread over the following years. In 2022, the meme became increasingly associated with YouTuber Slimecicle, who some fans compared to the Gacha character in the image.

On February 22nd, 2020, YouTuber[1] ballslord43 (@centipedegrrrl on Twitter) posted a video titled, "straight in a gay school lunch club glmm."

Two other characters then walk into the frame and make fun of him, calling him a "stupid breeder" and a "bitch boy." The video gained around 6,400 views in three years (shown below).

On April 15th, 2021, a screenshot of Charlie from the video was posted to /r/GachaLifeCringe,[2] garnering over 860 upvotes in two years (shown below). It was posted by Tumblr[3] user campyvillain on May 26th, garnering over 6,000 notes in the same span of time.
