Reply guy
Significado: A man who constantly and persistently replies to someone's posts, especially a woman's or celebrity's, seeking attention.
A reply guy is always in the comments — offering unsolicited opinions, flirting awkwardly, or trying to start conversations under every post. It's considered annoying and sometimes creepy behavior. There are subcategories: the 'well, actually' reply guy, the flirty reply guy, and the 'I know her' reply guy.
Ejemplos
- Every time she posts, the same three reply guys show up in the comments. 每次她发帖,同样那三个评论区常驻男就出现了。Cada vez que ella publica, los mismos tres reply guys aparecen en los comentarios.彼女が投稿するたびに、同じ3人のリプライガイがコメント欄に現れる。그녀가 게시물을 올릴 때마다 같은 세 명의 리플라이 가이가 댓글에 나타나.
- Don't be a reply guy — she doesn't want your opinion on everything. 别当评论区常驻男——她不想听你对每件事的看法。No seas un reply guy — ella no quiere tu opinión sobre todo.リプライガイになるなよ——彼女はお前の意見をいちいち求めてない。리플라이 가이 되지 마 — 그녀는 네 의견을 일일이 원하지 않아.
- He replied to all of her tweets within minutes. Total reply guy behavior. 他在几分钟内回复了她所有的推文。典型的评论区常驻男行为。Respondió a todos sus tuits en cuestión de minutos. Comportamiento total de reply guy.彼は彼女のツイート全部に数分以内にリプライしてた。完全にリプライガイの行動だ。그는 그녀의 모든 트윗에 몇 분 안에 답글을 달았어. 완전 리플라이 가이 행동이야.
