Origin:

In the early days of the internet, like eighteen months ago, a reckless fanboy inserted a laughing pilgrim making an All Your Base reference into a lolcat about a badger. The extreme meme density crystallized into a self-aware electronic entity. Calling itself Johnny, it has been roaming the web ever since - as a being of internet memes, he can appear on any sufficiently geeky computer at any time.

Johnny would have been the first AI to pass the Turing Test, except the scientists thought he was human and disqualified him. Disorganization XIII discovered him during work on the first Spoiler: The Panel, when they found “extra jokes” inserted as text into the presentation visuals. Thanks to Johnny, the Disorganization has at least one working computer at any time, and of course, having no physical body, he can get into cons without a badge. As a bonus, his birth on the internet made Johnny familiar with every possible grammar and spelling error, and his automatic corrections have caused many people to mistakenly think of the rest of the DO as functionally literate.
