About

God That Would Be Awful refers to a series of memes based on a prominent version of the Hmm Today I Will exploitable. In 2023, a panel in which a person holds an infant and introspects about intrusive thoughts and awful possibilities gained virality online.

Origin

The God That Would Be Awful meme is derived from a prevalent version of the Hmm Today I Will format that evolved over a series of memes in which a man murders his infant son (shown below). The first version of the meme in which the entire format was subverted to be the man's intrusive thoughts was posted in late 2019. On December 15th, 2019, iFunny[1] user SweatShop made the earliest post of this meme, gaining over 150 smiles on the app (original author of the edit is unknown).

hmm today i won't Crush my infant son with a rock JUST KIDDING LMFAO YEET!!!!!!!! I love you, son. I would never wish harm upon you pugnant sawish memes God, that would be awful. I believe thoughts like these are completely normal in any stream of conciousness and it's the thoughts we choose to act upon rather than those we discard that really matter. But I still can't believe what dwells in the dark reaches of our minds; it's a human aspect we ultimately have to embrace. You are an extension of myself. I am sorry for these thoughts, my beloved child.
