About

Post A Picture Of Yourself As The Final Boss refers to a participatory media challenge popular on Twitter in which users post pictures of themselves they believe is the closest they look to a video game final boss.

Origin

The trend began on February 23rd, 2021. The earliest extant tweet with the prompt comes from Twitter[1] user @emmaillustrate (shown below). However, she is quote-tweeting a deleted tweet by user @JAM_WAH, meaning the trend may have started before her post.
