Originally from the "Cough like an iPad kid" slang from 2021 (referring to Generation Alpha and the tendency to cough with their mouth and tongue visible while on their tablet as young children). However, the 2024 version of iPad kid revolves around filing in the "..." with any verb and then laughing and saying "alrighttt", in the same tone as Jynxzi, immediately after in the form of ironic comedy.
The first known use of this new form of humour comes from a Jynxzi stream from June 24 where he appears to cough and read a chat instantly of a viewer telling him he coughs like an iPad kid.
This can be seen as a form of clip farming, the 2024 trend that is currently making a resurgence where streamers purposely act out of line in hopes of being clipped for clout.

Get the Ipad Kid mug.
Any person under the age of 15 who is very attached to their electronics/video games. This person may appear to not be so hygenic since majority of their time is going into whatever video game they love.
My 9 year old cousin is such an Ipad Kid. I swear all he does is eat cheetos, play Roblox/Fortnite or whatever, not shower, and not even brush his teeth. Ugh.
