This exact chain of interactions is what I come to HN for.

When Meat Loaf died, I commented "His name was Robert Paulsen" (you know, because in death membersbof project mayhem do have names, his name was Robert Paulsen". Someone commented something to the effect of no it wasn't, meat loaf wasn't his real name it was Marvin Aday, and then someone else commented to their comment "It's literally a fucking line from the movie".

          That's better than what it usually is, teenagers asking "women, what's the sexiest sex you've ever sexed?" once a week.
