Did Felix "xQc" Lengyel just graduate high school? Twitter users were confused after seeing a random tweet on the TL showing xQc graduating from Highland Park High School. The tweet also stated that xQc was in the Computer Science National Honor Society and the Math National Honor Society. xQc was also cum laude, meaning he graduated with a 3.5 GPA.
The tweet also stated that xQc would be attending the University of California-Berkley to study computer science.
This had some fans scratching their heads. xQc is 26 years old. Was he secretly attending high school to get his GED? Was he planning to attend college? The seriousness of the tweet left many people on the internet wondering what was going on.
Turns out, the tweet was a troll. Surprise.
Twitter user Clarice Tinsley is a popular TV anchor with a big social following who often tweets out graduation announcements submitted by parents and students. In her recent batch of shoutouts, fans noticed xQc's image. Turns out, an xQc fan submitted the announcement to Tinsley as a joke, causing the tweet to go viral. It currently has over 33.7K likes.
In response to the fake announcement, fans started making jokes about xQc's behavior and streams. Many said they heard him in the hallways making weird noises, mocking his over-the-top live stream antics.
Many also used xQc's popular phrase "juicer" to show their joy over him graduating. xQc is often referred to as The Juicer because of how often he says things are "the juice." According to xQc, something fulfilling "has the juice." It's whatever people want it to mean and "nobody can define it." But for xQc, the juice is whenever he wins in a game.
In response to his fake graduation, fans spammed the announcement with "my juicer" comments.
It's currently unclear what Tinsley thinks of the situation. She clearly had no clue who xQc was and most likely is not too familiar with the streaming world. But she has probably seen the tweet blow up ever since — although she probably has no idea what "copium" and "juicer" means and has no clue what to make of the strange clips of xQc people keep sharing.
