The term "milquetoast 19" originated in comment from a YouTube video showing [[Jucunda Memoria]]'s Single EXPERT chart from DanceDanceRevolution in August 6th, 2021. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qlghl7uC4bU] | |||
Due to the patterns being considered to be excessively difficult for a chart rated Level 17, user Baby-Lon described in the comments section that the chart is "either a broken 18 or an [sic] milquetoast 19 at best". Users all over Twitter have gone to referring to the said Jucunda Memoria chart as a "milquetoast 19" mainly due to the rare usage of the word "milquetoast" in everyday context. | |||

Daisuke is a song by [[Tetsuya Tamura|Y&Co.]] in which video is featured an on-screen dancer called Daisuke, commonly refered as [[Dai.]] or Dai-chan. The choreography raised in popularity and Daisuke would go on to appear on more videos. | |||
The Japanese Vine community had adopted a form of Vine bombing, similar to the "Unexpected John Cena" meme by replacing any phrase on short videos that starts with "Dai" to a portion of the song's background video completing the "Suke". | |||
==== Meme pic ==== | |||
The posture at approximately 1:07 in the video has been dubbed "快把浴霸关上！"("Turn off the bath heater, quickly!") and used as a meme pic among Chinese players, as it looks like someone who can't stand the bright light from the bath heater and shields his eyes from it. | |||
