I tried it a few times recently when I’ve been down in the trenches of shitposting and it is very funny to make them try to explain their argument to you as if you have no idea what they’re saying. It’s so easy to bait them into thinking they’re about to bring up this amazing dunk about how China banned Winnie the Pooh or whatever and win you over, and then you get to just tell them that’s not true because you just looked it up plus now it feels racist.
One of my favorite bits is to dress as Luffy (with a one piece back patch on my vest) and act baffled when people try and talk to me about it.
"Whats a Luffy? A monkey? Oh i think they have a Luffy at the city zoo. One Piece? Piece of what? Sorry i don't have any food right now."
Water seven? Water seven of what?
Enies Lobby? No, I was at a different hotel.
It’s so great that it works in the other direction too
Oh Blackbeard spiced rum? I didn’t know One Piece did a brand deal with a distillery
Reminds me of an episode of American Dad where Stan was building a Delorean, despite having a complete media blind-spot on Back to the Future.
