Where Did The Phrase "Loud and Proud" Originate From?

[Grey Star, The Rival Defender]

I've been using it ever since I started to play, but I'm certain the phrase predates me. Unless, somehow, I'm the creator of it.

No one knows, and Cant say. You don't have historians keeping track of phrases like this. I would guess around WW1 thou.

The generic phrase "<insert word> and proud" has been around for decades and used for countless things. Especially when you can make a rhyme out of it. Even the exact phrase "loud and proud" was used by social/extroverted people to describe their personality long before Payday 2 or PD:TH were ever a thing.

But even asking who first used "loud and proud" in the context of Padyay 2 is like asking who was the first person on the PD2 forum to say "use the search function." There's no way to know, and not even the first person was being original.

But no, judging by the dates of your achievements (thereby deducing that you first launched the game in 2015), you definitely were not the first to say it in relation to Payday 2. People have been saying it since beta.

I'm pretty sure that it's an innuendo that is somewhat jarring to expand upon. Besides, it's so straightforward that it requires little to no imagination.

All this time my battle cry has been a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ sex phrase? My life is ruined.

There's no better Battle cry than one of amorous proclamation and lustful intention.
