About
Life or Death for Berryboy, or simply Berryboy, is a soyjak parody of a popular fetish known as blueberry inflation that originated from a scene from Roald Dahl's novel Charlie and the Chocolate Factory in which the character Violet Beauregarde turns into a giant blueberry.
Origin
The original image was created on August 9th, 2010, by a DeviantArt user known as "Iloveberryboy,"[1] also known as "Berrybaby1000" on YouTube.[2] The image depicts their original character, Berryboy, a toddler drawn as an anthropomorphic blueberry in an anime style who is often depicted as crying after being abused.[3] In this image, the Berryboy appears sad and exclaims, "Life!!!!!!" while surrounded by a group of people that say, "Death!"[4]

Although this original character and its creator would first be discussed in Encyclopedia Dramatica in 2012, it wouldn't gain widespread infamy for another ten years. The version of the soyface would first be posted to SoyBooru by user Chud on July 8th, 2022. On July 11th, 2022, a Reddit user whose profile is now deleted would repost the image on the Reddit board r/196 with the caption, "rule." This received about 1,400 upvotes.[5]

Spread
Later this same day, Twitter user @FuchsiaAndGreen posted the same image with the caption, "new favorite image."[6] This post received around 7,000 thousand likes. On July 13th, 2022, in response to FuchsiaAndGreen's post, Twitter user @sponglebog1 posted a picture of the character in a blender.[7] The image's text in the bottom right-hand corner reads, "Rest In Peace berryboy, 1935-2022, the world didn't deserve you". This post received almost 300 likes. This post would go on to be posted in conjunction with the original image.
