About

Sketch "What's Up Brother?" continued Tuesday, Tuesday, refers to a catchphrase from NFL Madden streamer Sketch who says the phrase with his finger pointed up. He then bumps his fists while saying, "Tuesday, Tuesday." Sketch is often shown wearing glasses, headphones and a Houston Texans jersey. Clips of Sketch saying the phrase on stream became well-known among sports meme circles and male internet users who impersonated Sketch on TikTok. A trend started when girlfriends asked their boyfriends, "What's up brother?" with their finger up to see their boyfriend's reaction. Sketch's catchphrase is often symbolized by the nerd emoji combo "🤓☝️." Notably, Sketch often said "What's up brother?" when streaming with fellow streamer Jynxzi.
