Xablau is an expression created in Brazil and widely used on the internet as meme. Among the various meanings attributed to the term, it represents the idea of "spread the fuss", that is, creating a situation of disorder in relation to a given subject.
For example, when a user comments on another user's post with the expression “xablau” on networks social, its intention is to start a chain of mockery about the content of the information shared.
Thus, the term “xablau” ended up being transformed into a verb among users of social networks, with “xablar” being the same as “fooling”, “playing” and “sacanar”, for example.
On social networks, the character's image helmet from the series "Sesame Street", which appears with open arms on a black and burning background, was used to illustrate the meaning of the word “xablau”: something bombastic, intense, exceptional or unexpected. The xablau can still be used as slang for explosive, acting as an onomatopoeia of the sound provoked by an explosion, for example.
