    The guy is paraphrasing a YouTuber named ShoeOnHead and I’m pointing it out. Don’t go on a whole fucking tangent about something that doesn’t make sense to you because maybe that’s because you’re not in on it.

      Don’t make obscure references and expect people to get them. Saying “Shoe?” makes you look like a weirdo. Could’ve said ShoeOnHead. And that “looks weird” is comming from someone who actually knows who you are talking about and knows the quote.

        I don’t expect you to get my reference. I expect the guy I replied to who made the reference to think it’s nice that I recognized his reference. You don’t need to participate in the exchange at all! An inside joke owes outsiders nothing.

          How is it an inside joke? Dude made a statement. You thought they were “paraphrasing a content creator” and asked “shoe?” as if everyone on this world would somehow find you saying “this content creator?” funny. It’s not a joke. It’s a bad reference to something she said about an entirely different thing. It isn’t a joke when someone tells a joke and someone asks “Ricky Gervais?”.

          A lot of people downvoted you because you are acting like a dick. Assuming that people are the Holy Spirit and all knowing. Then getting angry when being told to chill.

            They don’t gotta be all knowing. They just gotta not come after me for knowing someone they don’t.

      You seriously need to look up the definition of the word tangent my friend because you’re using it wrong.

      It’s not a tangent if it’s one sentence.
