Something said when an internet addicted asshole on YouTube feels the need to induce their feeling of superiority by entering a comment section just as the YouTube video has been published then types "first". Those sanctimonious narcissists are oblivious to the fact that the chances are that they most likely aren't the first to comment on the video as YouTube doesn't load other comments straight away, thus ending up with around 10 people screaming "first". If you are one of those silly individuals please just stop because you're not special, nor funny.
I vehemently despise those pretentious man-children who claim "first!" in every single YouTube video because nobody gives a flying fuck.
