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?

One that irked me today is Redditors learning something for the first time in one thread, then bringing it up in another thread shortly after like they've always been an expert.

The worst is when this happens in real life. It's a coworkers delight to bring up some bullshit you just know they saw on the front page like it's hidden history.

I had a friend that did this in real life all the time.

I remember when we lived together, I used to be really into Beavis and Butthead (for example) and he always made fun of me, until one day, he sat and watched a couple with me, and the next day he wasa super fan and an expert on Beavis and Butthead, and all things Mike judge.
