There's this game called "Grace" on Roblox (I don't like roblox much but some of the games are okay)
There are some early access features going around
One of them is "Joey" (AKA the Doombringer) Who is a goofy little rat-like creature who you hold like an item and they sometimes scream. If they scream for long enough, they explode and you die.
People really like Joey.
I said "Worship Joey" as a joke, and then ensued the SPAMMING OF "WORSHIP JOEY" and one of us had 8 JOEYS so I named them Joey, Shmoey, Lemon, Toey, Jimmy, Jerry, GARGORATH EATER OF SOULS, and Moey. That was a mistake. Now those 8 make up the Joeycouncil (AKA the High Council of Joey) and have apparently existed since the dawn of time. People started spamming "This is not a cult" to which I said, "Correct, we are not a cult, we are Joey (NOT A CULT) Fanclub" THIS WAS MORE OF A MISTAKE BECAUSE NOW PEOPLE START TREATING IT LIKE A CULT. WHY.
Rituals, Sacrifices, you name it, I just started a cult.
Help. Please. Help.
Happy Pixelling, take care of your "Inner Joey" (yes that is a thing that followers of Joey believe in for some reason idek)
I think that this rat is a reference from a indie game where you shake the rat and if you shake it way to much it explodes. The name of the game is Ratshaker, and it's pretty cool. yet still this cult is very funny LOL- lets take good care of our inner joey.
