On YT when someone points out something they found particularly funny they comment: ". . . I died." Or "dead".

Bleh. I find it so friggin' lame.

You may have come across it but it didn't register. First time I heard it was around 2011/2012, it's used a few times in the film Contagion.

You'll ever learn
Is just to love
And be loved
In return"
