Subject: Re: Kirk suspect's rifle
k1moe: The writing on the single spent casing, he said, read, "Notices bulges OWO what's this?" Authorities didn't elaborate on the meaning of the messages.

Any gamers here?

Evidently that is a meme referring to furry online roleplay: Notices Bulge / OwO What's This? is a copypasta parodying both furries and online roleplay subcultures, which is typically used online as a method of trolling. The meme originated from these communities around early 2013 and spread online over the following years. In mid-September 2025, following the murder of conservative influencer Charlie Kirk, the alleged shooter, Tyler Robinson, notably included the meme in an inscription on a bullet casing found during the investigation, causing the meme to spike in virality.

The other inscriptions, such as the full arrow sequence is a combo from Helldivers 2 for calling the Eagle 500kg Bomb stratagem. The song “Bella ciao” is also in Helldivers 2 and at least one other video game, a World War II-themed strategy game called Hearts of Iron IV.

Sorry to make everyone here feel old. ;)
