"rent free" was around before ISH even existed.

It started way before 2012. I remember LoJ trying to take credit for it, but it wasn't him. It may have been Texas Batman

I remember it being thrown around by LOJ when he was pretending to be Abstract and was busted for pretending to have AIDS. Then that pic came out of him with the Filipina ladies and there was one fat one that someone drew a dick on.

Yeah, he used to do stupid shit like that just to entertain himself. People got annoyed and started finding pics of him and busting his chops. That's when he would spout off rent free. There was the one funny pic circulating with him and all these Filipinas. There was a fat one and someone drew a dick on her. One of the funniest pics ever on ISH.

That phrase has been around for years. It's funny because a few months ago I was watching a movie from like the early 80's and heard it (or some variation of it) and immediately I thought of ish. I only remember seeing it here within the last year or two.

Rent Free has been around forever, it definitely did not start here. Even Urban Dictionary has the term from 2007.

I've heard it back into the 90s when working at a Video Music Store called Wherehouse Music - couple of guys I worked with would talk about living Rent Free in people head after a good insult. It's been around probably even before then.
