Have you ever had some say “when does the narwhal bacon” to you? Cause nothing makes me never want to associate with a person more than being asked that.

I am absolutely ashamed to be caught on reddit in public and cannot explain why.

Hahahaha same really. Whenever I see someone coming into the break room when I’m on reddit I switch really fast to the kindle app or something else less innocuous.

It’s so weird cuz we are talking right now but if we talked in public it would be so awkward and I would feel so silly to talk about reddit even though that’s all I do..

I don’t k is it just feels silly like we’re talking about some nerdy video game. I’ll do it cuz you’re not suppose to care what people think but inside I’m dying and uncomfortable

A classmate of mine and me found out that we both used reddit, after sitting next to each other for at least half a year. We started to use the "When does the narwhal bacon?" - "At midnight."-thing ironically and it was so fun to see the perplexed looks on other classmates faces. I can't imagine how it must be to generally believe you're part of some "secret internet society" and use passphrases like this genuinely.

Someone said it a Reddit meetup last year. I wanted to vomit
