It all came from the English-language memes That feel when and I know that feel. They can be used both as slang and in conjunction with images. The most popular image is Feels Guy, a meme-face of Polish origin, which shows a bald man with wrinkles on his forehead. You've definitely met him before. The history of this meme is very long, interesting and connected with Poland.
It all started in 2009 in the vastness of the German image board Krautchan.net. This forum was quite popular among English-speaking Internet users. The authorship of the meme is attributed to the British user Falco, who drew the picture in October 2009 using the MS Paint program to troll the Polish user Wojak, who wrote in broken English.
Initially, the meme was completely apolitical and was used only for trolling Wojak, but then other users picked up the idea and began drawing comics with a bald sad man.
All of these memes are used to express different emotions. Most often, this is sadness, frustration, situations from the category of “I know this feeling”, etc.
If you are interested, a detailed history of these memes can be found here.
About the” same ” feeling that depends on the situation. Example:
“That feeling [of hopelessness] when you wake up early in the morning on a day off to the barking of dogs under your window”
“The same feeling [of joy] when you calmly continue to sleep, while others go to work/school / *somewhere else*”
“That feeling [of disappointment] when reality didn't live up to expectations”
