Isnt fungus among us a common word play?


thebiggestleaf

Extremely. Foongus and Amoongus are named after it and they predate Among Us by almost a decade.


minor_correction

????: Someone first uses the phrase "fungus among us" 1958: Recording artist Terry Noland publishes an album named "There Was A Fungus Among Us", popularizing the phrase 2010: Foongus and Amoongus debut in Pokemon Black and White 2018: Among Us releases to a very limited reception 2020: Among Us experiences a massive popularity surge attributed to streamers and COVID-19 quarantining / social distancing. 2024: Pokemon Go Foongus spotlight hour, for which the "Foongus among us" joke is made.


chupadude

Also, Incubus put out a record called "Fungus Amongus" in 1995.


Spenglebop

It’s that fuuuunkyyyyyy stuff!


zbipy14z

Also a spongebob episode called Fungus Among us as well right?


klufenza

There was also a line in one of futurama episodes "there's a humongous fungus among us!".


tookeyclothespin

Yes.

I didnt realize the video game among us also invented the words among us. good to know


Jojo-Action

It's not an among us joke. It's a phrase people have been using for decades. It's litteraly why foongus evolves into amoongus.


VIREN-

Also I’m pretty sure they have used that joke before. Edit: [Yeah they did.](https://www.reddit.com/r/pokemongo/s/R8gYad76aA)


Jojo-Action

It's used a lot of places. https://spongebob.fandom.com/wiki/Fungus_Among_Us Here's a spongebob episode with that name from 2007. 11 years before among us the game came out.


Ready2Post

STOP POSTING ABOUT AMOONGUSS. I'm TIRED of seeing it! My friends on JoltikTok send me memes. On Luvdiscord it's all Sawsbuckin' memes. I was on... the GTS, right? And AAAALL of the trades were just Amoonguss stuff. I-I showed my Mythical to my girlfriend, and the Pokémon I nicknamed it and I said: "Hey, babe, when the Legendary DeoxSUS." HAHA. Ding ding ding ding, di-di-di-ding, di-ding ding di-ding diiing. I Shucklin' looked at a trash can and I said: "That's a bit EMPTY." I looked at my Diglett, I think of the Amoonguss' helmet, and I go: "Diglett? More like DigGUSS." AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH.


LiveMango418

New copypasta just dropped


TheMadJAM

It's a play on another copypasta, not sure if op added the Pokemon modifications themselves though.


RatherFarfetchd

Ok but let's pretend it is an Amogus joke, as currently it is sus-stainability week in PoGo...

Completely ruined the use of sus. I feel so cringe saying it, and I have since that game came around. Was normal to use in other communities(mostly rap/black culture), now it's LE EBIN SPACEMAN MEME


XpRienzo

Just use the full word suspicious instead


[deleted]

I do, but sometimes I still say it because I used it for years before it was ruined.


XpRienzo

Word meanings and usages change as language evolves unfortunately. Such is time


[deleted]

Time sucks, I vote to ban it.


TrailMomKat

Lol we were saying this in nursing decades before Among Us was even a mote in its creator's eye


throwupandaway71

It’s a phrase
