What is Ligma?

Even though many people are still confused about the real definition of this modern slang, some Internet celebs have already declared its definition.

This slang is used to describe a disease that is made up and some hoax on the Internet that tells people that it has killed popular Fortnite video game streamer Ninja.

But if this term is used by the people who are not in on the joke, this is usually replied to by the pranksters to reply it as “the nuts”.

History

In previous years, there was a hoax that was spread by an Instagram user called ninja_hater. That hoax declared that Fortnite streamer Ninja had passed away after getting the disease.

After that, this hoax later became a joke, and later, there was also an Instagram user, Galevik, who posted about this topic.

In May 2018, Galevik posted a video about a conversation using the ligma term, which later went viral within two months.

Since then, the use of this term is pretty popular, but Ninja threatened the users to ban them if they mention ligma on his streams.
