About
My New Character. His Whole Deal Is He’s a Chill Guy That Lowkey Doesn’t Give a Fuck is a meme focused on a character called, "my new character" who's depicted as a light brown dog with a human body, wearing a grey sweater, blue jeans and red shoes. In the drawing, the character is smirking at the viewer with his hands in his pockets. The drawing was originally shared in a tweet by Twitter / X user philb (@PhillipBankss) in late 2023, paired with the aforementioned caption about "his whole deal" being that "he's a chill guy that lowkey doesn't give a fuck." In 2024, the meme went viral on TikTok where users inserted the character into different formats like an exploitable and joked about "his deal."
