    God it was so awkward, it must have been like 2011 because I was freshly 21. And it was at this local bar. And everybody greeted eachother by " the narwhal bacon’s at midnight" and it was just fucking weird. For a while our local subreddit was running a monthly one and then it just kind of stopped.

      To be fair I’m sure everyone was pretty cringeworthy at that age with or without reddit. Myself included

        Probably not. Old piece of Reddit history. Gist of it is there was a discussion on how to identify a redditor in real life, and the favorite response was saying that “the narwhal bacons at midnight”.

          Good summary really.

          Also an example of why being a Redditor wasn’t something you admitted to for a long time.
