i'll start. i saw a ask reddit post saying something along the lines of "men of reddit whats something women can't understand" and the comments were just. oh my god. the main one that made me want to puke was "when dudes walk by each other and nod" and the whole fucking thread was just fedoras with arms soypogging like it was some secret language or something. "when you nod upwards, it means respect!!!!!1!!11 when you nod downwards its aggression!!!1!11!!!!!" as if women dont do the same shit.

do you guys have something similar to share?

    this but at the same time they never follow "this is the way" with "step inside" they just keep saying "this is the way." and if you say "step inside" you get downvoted. Uncultured swine I tell you.

      "this is the way" is an instant downvote from me.

      I fucking HATE Star wars and what it's done to our culture. Yes, I'm aware the OG star wars was a Vietnam allegory and is cool and good. Still don't care.

        The Mandalorian was a good show, but it is a little weird that people valorize the culty and strange part of the show and not the cool or heartwarming parts.

        after four decades as a creatively bankrupt corpse being squeezed for profit the Star Wars universe is anathema to me, I hate it all so much I still haven't managed to bring myself to watch Andor which by all accounts is excellent

          Part of it is they keep bringing back mark Hammel and Harrison Ford to mug into the camera like some marvel movie. I can't stand nostalgia bait. I'm so tired of the same three franchises shambling back into the theaters like a zombie and everyone seal claps. People can like what they want, but I will silently judge you for living star wars, marvel and all the John wick clones.

      I always thought that was a reference to the Ugandan knuckles meme. Started popping up around that time.
