About

Bloomer is a character spread on 4chan which represents a person with a highly optimistic outlook on life and a go-getter attitude, usually in their late 20s. The character is often used in contrast to Doomer as an example of a person who moved past an unhealthy lifestyle and depressed state by learning to love and accept themselves and finding motivation.

Origin

On September 21st, 2018, an anonymous 4chan user posted an image of a happy Wojak dressed in a blue hoodie to /pol/ board, titled "The 27 Year Old Bloomer".[1] The image contained several captions describing the character as "having an unbreakable resolve", "seeing the better worlds he wants to build" and "being loved by /ourguys/ and normies alike". In the same thread, an anonymous user posted an edited version of the original image, adding hair to the character's head.[2]

Spread

In the following month, the original image, along with other pictures of the character, was circulated on several 4chan boards, including posts in /v/,[3] /bant/,[4] /r9k/[5] and other boards. In several posts, Bloomer ideology has been described as an opposite to "blackpilling".[9]

In the following months the character, appeared in several popular YouTube videos, both independently and alongside 30-Year-Old Boomer, Zoomer and Doomer. Several notable videos featuring the character were created by YouTube users Shuzzo[6] and Prince of Zimbabwe. (Video broken)[7]

Go-Getter

On November 19th, 2018, an anonymous 4chan user posted an image titled "The 24 Year Old Go-Getter",[8] described as a person who moved on from a Doomer way of life.

Broken Bloomer

Broken Boomer refers to a version of the Bloomer character which has experienced a large number of hardships and is questioning his resolve for self-improvement.

The exact origin of the Broken Bloomer edit is unknown, but the character is presumed to have originated outside of 4chan. On May 16th, 2019, VK group eternal classic made the earliest known repost of the image (shown below),[10] with the character also being posted on Reddit[11] and Twitter in the following days.[12]

Starting on May 24th, 2019, the character appeared in multiple threads on 4chan.[13][14]
