'I'm deceased' — laughing so hard you have died, in the formal register — as the successor to 'I'm dead' and the ancestor of the skull emoji. The record's entry for the death by laughter as a genre, and for the formality that made it funnier.
The definition implies everyone used Deceased the same way. They did not. There were at least two camps by the second month, and they did not like each other.
The record files the death-by-laughter family — dead, deceased, 💀, 'screaming', 'crying' — and notes the internet has no way to say something is funny that does not involve injury.
For whoever reads this in ten years: Deceased arrived in 2016 and for about a month it was the only correct response to anything. Then it became a response to itself.
What does it mean? Write it the way you would say it out loud.
