Originally taken from the iconic Chicago Cubs 'Win' and 'Loss' flags for almost 80 years, since 1937. Since the Cubs had such a great (2016) season from the start, and most people bet on them winning, cubs fans were making a "meme" out of the L flags to mean "take a loss". However, no other team in the league uses these flags, they just use their phones...

Get the Take the Lmug. you say this to another person only if you're a retarded loser who likes to take butt stuff deep up your ass and you want to publicly announce that you like to molest kids

Get the take this Lmug. Taking the L does not, as some people think, mean to suffer a humiliating defeat.
What it actually means is to accept a loss gracefully. To understand that losses will be inevitable in life, learn what you can from the experience, and shake hands with your opponent. To resign with self respect instead of delaying the inevitable and embarrassing yourself.
Some people simply cannot do this and will begin to act extremely immature when it's clear they're losing.

I could tell that Steve was going to hook up with Julia instead of me, so I had to take the L. It's not a big deal and I have other options.

Get the Take the Lmug. When you don't know how to properly take an L so you have to say that you lost and the person who wrecked you lost as well so you can feel better about yourself and the stupid things you said .

Get the Taking an Lmug. It is a magical beam that shoots out lasers that looks like the letter L. If you get hit by it you will play Fortnite the rest of your life.
