A term derived from a day on skype where JinSeng, a member of a forum called Youtube Chorus kept repeating, "
I like turtles" whenever there was an awkward silence. The term
Jin likes turtles was coined when there was an awkward silence, and Jin is not there. It is a term anyone can use to fill in an awkward silence, and possibly change the subject when you run out of things to talk about.
I like turtles, the phrase Jin would repeat, came from a very popular youtube video where a little boy with zombie
facepaint, was asked, "What do you think about this carnival?", and he replied with, "I like turtles." It has become a viral video across the web.
