poggers

That's so cool

Poggers is internet slang expressing excitement, amazement, or approval—the equivalent of shouting "awesome!" or "let's go!" It originated from Twitch streaming culture, derived from the emote PogChamp showing an excited face.

That comeback was absolutely poggers.

The term is most common among younger gamers and online communities, often used ironically by those outside that demographic.
