You will usually fall under 4 types of people when talking about poi: either you love poi, you hate poi, you just accept poi is poi, or you don’t know what it is. Well I’m here to help those who have no clue what poi is!
Warning: it gets weird, fast…

Meaning of Poi:
Poi is a Japanese word that is akin to saying ‘like’ or ‘ish’. But the meaning is more or less irrelevant.

Origin of Poi: (in its most basic form)
It’s from a Japanese anime called Kancolle
…that features Japanese ships from WW2
…except the ships are school girls
…and they fight evil sea demons
…and there is this one girl/ship called Yuudachi
…that literally says ‘poi’ at all the time

Well there is also an online game called ‘World of Warships’ (from the makers of world of tanks), and I have been playing that game since it came out. At one point, the ship Yuudachi represents was added to the game… and people started spamming poi, and so it began. (By the way, its a great game, and quite a few of us on Teamspeak play it together, and its free).

Why do people (mostly me) keep spamming poi?
Poi is poi. Its short, its sweet, and it was my failed attempt to try and annoy @chailey …which didn’t work because he fell in love with poi, and so did a lot of Teamspeak…
So technically… it was my failed attempt to try and annoy someone, which backfired… and I think a lot of other people are trying to do the same thing, but also failing, mostly. :I

I’m not sharing any pictures or videos of poi, you can look that up yourself, or others may (hopefully not) post some. It’s too weird for me.
I know what you’re thinking right now. Don’t question it. I don’t watch anime at all. Poi is poi.
