Editing NPC (section)

== As a meme ==

Recently in 2018, NPC has been turned into a meme by the likes of a /v/ anon. If a person is refered to as a NPC, they are considered people who do not think for themselves or are incapable of having an internal monologue, just like those typical RPG characters who can only respond to the player with what they were programmed to say. As such, the meme is usually invoked in response to what is seen as particularly uninformed "stock" opinions or statements. (See also: drones, zombies, sheeple, etc.)

Naturally, this has also become associated with [[/pol/|the usual suspects]], due to being used as a means of trolling [[SJW|the ''other'' usual suspects]] - and there's inevitably the usual subsets of "idiots calling other people idiots" (including /pol/, of course) that act predictably themselves and earnestly believe no one ever monologues to themselves besides people who think just like them. (See AGAIN: drones, zombies, sheeple, etc.)

The obvious [[irony]] of the situation is not lost on observers who aren't too busy being [[Butthurt|assblasted]].
