It is said that Beijingers are especially prone to this way of reclining. Many entertainers of Beijing origin have been caught on camera in this inelegant but comfortable position.
据说北京人最喜欢这么瘫着。许多北京本地土生土长的娱乐圈人士都曾被摄像机拍到这种不雅但却舒服的坐姿。
But the ultimate champion for this "Beijing repose" is Ge You, a master comedian whose cameo appearance in a situation comedy spawned a wave of good-humored interpretations and imitations.
但是北京瘫的终极大师当属葛优，这位喜剧大师在一部情景剧中的友情客串引发了一大波幽默解读和模仿。
The image of him burying much of his back in the couch has turned into an emoji icon with a countless variety of captions, often with no connection to the original TV context.
他将大部分背部埋在沙发中的形象已经成了表情包，会配上各式各样的字幕说明，通常跟原来的电视情节毫无关系。
