Recently, a lot of "don't Google" trends have been popping up online. One of them happens to be the infamous Lego Piece 26047.

It's not quite like the rest, because rather than being disturbing shock media, the Lego piece is something else entirely. If you're wondering why everyone's talking about Lego piece 26047 and laughing at what seems like an inconspicuous Lego piece, here's a full explainer of the trend and meme.

What Is Lego Piece 26047?

Unlike many of the "don't Google" trends the internet's seen lately, this one is something you actually could Google without potentially being psychologically damaged or grossed out. It's not a form of shock media, like Blue Waffle or Degloved Face (and you probably should not look those up unless you want to see something you really will regret looking at afterward).

Instead, it's just a dead joke. A joke so dead, in fact, that it lives on through the force of sheer irony. There's something familiar about the appearance of this Lego piece, something that most people who spend any time online will recognize.

This piece has a pretty unique shape. One could even say it's a little "sus."

How Is Lego Piece 26047 Used Online?

Lego piece 26047 is used as a challenge of sorts. Often, people will make memes saying not to Google it. Some people will use forum posts and other methods to try and trick people into stumbling upon the image via bait-and-switch tactics.

This is a rather harmless form of classic trolling, almost like a Rickroll someone pressures you into finding using reverse psychology. And since everyone's so used to seeing the likeness of Among Us crewmates everywhere, we all instantly recognize it.

Lego piece 26047 is part of a larger trend that mocks objects that look like Among Us crewmates. This is a subtrend of the ironic Amogus memes that appeared after the initial popularity of Among Us memes died off.

The reason it’s trending now, however, is because it’s currently being referenced all over TikTok. Often, it’s paired with annoying audio repeating the word “sus” to emphasize the many layers of irony lurking beneath the trend’s surface.
