Jacobson
Jacobson is alternately an uncommon generic nickname for Soyjaks (see Soyjak Nicknames), a name for a common baby Deformed Soyjak variant, and an angry Soyjak variant that took on the name on 4channel's /qa/ board in September 2021. [1]
History of the name and its usage
Jacobson, as a nickname for soyjaks, is one of many soyjak nicknames derived from "'jak". The first individual soyjak it became associated with was a baby deformed soyjak variant based on A24 Slow-Burn Soyjak, one of the first deformed 'jaks. In September 2021 a different 'jak became known as Jacobson, an angry 'jak similar in expression to Eat The Bugs Soyjak, albeit newer and much less popular. The variant received a mixed reception on soyjak.party, where Chuds negatively compared it to the Croat's 'jaks [2] [3] and deformedposters disparagingly nicknamed it "Fakecobson". [4] Soon, however, the angry variant became more commonly referred to as "'Cobson" (occasionally spelled without the apostrophe, implying that "Cobson" is his full name). [5] This distinction was supported by deformedposters who wanted Cobson to be distinguished from their prized baby Jacobson. [6]
Origin
Jacobson is a deformed edit of A24 Slow-Burn Soyjak but without glasses or facial hair.
Cobson is based on a character from the slow burn, bone chilling, atmosphere-oozing, trope-subverting, genre-redefining, gut-wrenching, spine-tingling, emotionally taxing, paranoia-inducing, jaw-clenching, nerve-wracking, character-development driven, soul-shaking, nail-biting, anxiety-written, kafkaesque, post-lynchian, question-asking, socially-aware, ethnically-diverse, politically-cognisant, culturally relevant, socially-prescient, thought-provoking, artisanally-crafted and cheap jumpscares free 1992 film "The Lawnmower Man". [7]
Cobson was posted for the first time on June 6th 2021 in /qa/ under the filename "lawnmower soy.png". [8]
