About a month and a half later, on December 10th, 2017, Redditor4] kirbizia launched the /r/okbuddyretard subreddit. According to the subreddit's creator,[4][5] the name of the subreddit is based on the Doge image. They write:
Hi I made the thing as asked in question so I think I can say some things about it. The initial idea for r/okbuddyretard was based on the "original" of an image of doge saying ok buddy, crossed out multiple times with the words retard. I got this image from people posting it in the r/bonehurtingjuice discord, so I can't say where they came from. I created the subreddit based on a image similar to what happened with r/bonehurtingjuice. Similarly to r/bonehurtingjuice just posted images I found on discord, reddit or other places that I found were funny and had a somewhat similar theme.
