"I can be your angle….or yuor devil" is an intentionally misspelled phrase used in combination with two-pane images highlighting two opposite sides of a fictional character or individual that are typically posted on Reddit, Twitter and other forums dedicated to cringe humor.
Origin
On July 14th, 2013, Cringe Channel[1] user Ironcringe posted a two-pane image featuring mirror selfies of a man with CGI-rendered wings of a devil and an angel, along with the misspelled caption reading "I can be your devil or angle" (shown below).
