E-Kid

An E-Kid is someone who takes their online persona far too seriously (see E-Girl/E-Boy) Often times recognizable from their semi-emo personality and fashion style, mixed with modern hype beast fashion. They tend to be found on popular Instagram and Twitter profiles, but mostly dwell on TikTok. These people are mostly underage, but can range anywhere from 13-25. A staple of the E-Kid personality is self-deprecating humor (often times used for Fishing for Compliments), music tastes consisting of mainly the likes of Lil Peep, XXXTentacion, 6ix9ine, etc. or Melanie Martinez, Billie Eillish, and Joji, extremely technologically-dependent lifestyle, a lack of real life connections and relationships, and a lack of any self worth or standards. They often times hold themselves far too highly despite being insecure (mostly as a defense mechanism) and tend to have a lot of orbiters who will act as white knights whenever they're criticized. Often times evolve into either a sex worker or an incel.
