By which /u/warlizard will deny it, claiming he have no idea what it is. Over the months many people have no idea what everybody’s been talking about whenever /u/warlizard’s comment have that sort of replies, and as it happens that /u/warlizard posted plenty of comments on big subreddits, his comments are often exposed to many other users.
