About
Winrar is a .ZIP and .RAR file archiving and compression utility first released in 1995. It is commonly known to people as having an infinite free trial, as well as quick and easy installation and usage.
As slang
The word Winrar[1] is often used as slang alternate to the word "Winner" and is often substituted in existing phrases which contain the word "winner." This can be seen in the phrase "A winrar is you" (see: A Winner Is You) and "Teh winrar" (see: teh)
Spread
One of the first documented appearances of "Teh Winrar" was on XLtronic.com[2], an electronic music message board. On January 13th, 2004, user TehLaw posted the following comment:
"About as swedish as a dead kangaroo."
TEH WINAR!
Another user, named princo responded:
TEH WINRAR?
Eleven months later, On December 12th, 2004, EncyclopediaDramatica founder Girlvinyl created the first revision[3] of the EncyclopediaDramatica Winrar article.
Someone who wins! A leet speak way of jokingly saying something or someone is the best. Also often used with high sarcasm.
Ex. "OMG! YOU ARE TEH WINNAR!!!oneoneon!"
Post-Slang
Winrar survived this leetspeak period and became known for it's infinite free trial. Because of this, many memes were made about it either related to Winrar being the best company ever, or about how owning Winrar is a sign of extreme wealth. This can be seen with the meme posted on the subreddit r/memes by redditor[4] u/Dalore740, which received 78 upvotes in one year (shown below).

Couple of things.
Winrar is a file compression software.
And, @admins, this should be a sub-entry for chanspeak/lolspeak.
Lastly, this is a meme. Just needs moar info.
hasn't this already been submitted?
here we go, a winner is you has already been submitted. we should merge this and that
about the meme itself, i am pretty sure that it is used for a situation where you were trying to screw something up.
ie. you succesfully destroyed the city, a winner/winwar is you!
Thank you for the help, kind sir.

Facepalm? In my entry?
It's more likely then you think
heh…
I've seen on IRC chatrooms that people replace the ending of "er" with ".rar" in other words. For example: din.rar (dinner,) nig.rar (n-gger.)
Time to get back to work!
This article is still incomplete. You've talked about the word's origin (or as close as you can get to the origin) and its internet usage and that's great, but you've got to also talk about the usage of the "stack of books" symbol as a shooping meme. You also may have to supply some more sites where "Winrar" has been used. When you do add those info, we can confirm this article.
+1 Work on it
I don't get it. This is a submission still being evaluated (which I have never heard of before), but the original meme, "A winner is you" is deadpooled (which it shouldn't, I hear it all the time). Whaaa???
This seems more of a spin-off of Engrish than it does Chan Speek.
Nope.avi
+1 never heard of it
Deadpool.
With every meme added to this site, it gets a little less funny..
This is definitely lolspeak/chanspeak. Y U NO CONFIRM?
You're winrar, efrain

time to do some Zipping…..

Winrar: A winrar is you!

Not appreciating lame racist puns isn't being edgy. It's called having more than 5 brain cells.
Hah, but in a more serious regard;
If you or anyone who read that comment of mine took it seriously and/or vetoed it, I suggest familiarizing yourselves with how the internet works.
I, for one, certainly know how you work, which is to desperately defend your lack of protest with immature embedded graphics; compensating your poor social reasoning and lack of vocabulary.
However, if you believe either of the previously stated skills exceed what I've observed, then why not exercise them? If you have opinions, speak them. But most importantly, be civil.
If not, I suggest you simply avoid me, because you'll probably end up displaying your true idiocy.
Luckily for me, I can only display it as a façade for my true voice;
to see and read it is one thing, to hear it with your own ears is another matter.
Comment "Cowboys" beware, for I am Dick… Dick, of the Chalkboard!
Wow, you must be some badass :/
I do not refer to myself as one, though I allow people to think and/or speak of me as they will.
Hah, aside from that, I intend nothing personal against you. Just thought I'd surprise you all with something you probably weren't expecting, perhaps even prompt some motivational energy within your rotund guts.
Cheers.
TL;DR downvoted anyways.
Take a look, it's in a book!

I'm still trying to figure out how to remove that stupid "Winrar is not a free software" message so it won't pop up every bloody time I use it.
If you wanted me to pay for your product, you should have made the license expiration message force the program to close. Now it's just annoying.
