About
Spell "Kid Among Us" Backwards or Kid Amogus Backwards refers to a series of videos in which one character asks another to spell "kid Among Us" backwards, a reference to the video game Among Us, to which the character responds "sug on ma dik," falling for the prank. The first video using the joke was uploaded to YouTube in early August 2021, inspiring a number of new variations on it over the next few days. "Kid Among Us" is notably not "sug on ma dik," backwards, but "sug no ma dik."
