What is "rekt"?


The illiterate (i.e. 'l33t') form of 'wrecked', I believe.


Also, a memetic allusion to shock/gore imagery and videos, especially those where people are horrifically mutilated by accidents or violence.

Emerging into common use across and throughout The Internet circa 2014.


Thank you, Commander Data.
