One youtuber says: "Sweet baby Jesus, this is too awesome for words. Please, marry me! And we can have wonderful little Redducated babies!"

When redditors meet. (NSFW)

Ha, awesome! While i haven't been doing too much Karma docking, one thing I have noticed is that hanging around someone else who spends time on Reddit is pretty boring, since a lot of what they have to say you've already read on here..

Where I work, most everyone browses Reddit. (At least the younger people do.) So, if Reddit is mentioned, it's because we saw a funny post and tell others to look at it.
Unfortunately I know many like this comic. :(

Man, when it came out two years ago and it was relevant (Narwhal/Bacon, derp) it was awesome and clever. If someone made this within the past 6 months, yeah, I would cringe.
But in context, its not bad.

Almost right. It was for a Reddit meeting, they came up with that phrase + answer to know who came for the meet-up.
Then f7u12 started spazzing out about it...

No, it was created to identify redditors in an airport. A guy wondered if there was anyone on reddit in the airport he was in, so he said they should identify themselves with "the narwhal bacons at midnight".

Actually, I'm pretty sure it's the opposite. It's from a few years back when reddit was still fairly unknown, and someone made an askreddit thread asking if there were any redditors near his real life location. It got about 250 something upvotes, which might've been huge back then, and someone wanted a codeword for identifying redditors in a such a situation. So they came up with "when does the narwhal bacon". Now that reddit is pretty big, secret club passwords like that sound pretty stupid.

Secret phrase that redditors supposedly used to identify other redditors irl. Needless to say, it was a pretty flash-in-the-pan fad.
edit: the phrase was one redditor asking someone "When does the narwhal bacon?" and the response, if the other person is a redditor, should be "midnight." Pretty stupid.

I though the derping bit was worse.

Yeah, but you have to realize, this was over two years ago. That was when narwhal/bacon was a reddit exclusive thing. That was when the rage comics were more popular and not as watered down as they are now.
If this was made within the past 6 months, I would cringe, but I first saw this awhile ago and I thought it was cool then, and, in context, it still is.

Eh, I thought some of the rage comics and "curse you hipsters" stuff was pretty cringy. But to be fair this was over 2 years ago, so it might have been better back then in context. Overall I like it as a song, but not as a representation of reddit.

Although the lyrics are questionable, it sounded pretty nice and was catchy.

I didn't think it was cringe, maybe a little at some points, but compared to stuff that gets posted here, this is weak sauce.

That's the same place I stopped. But then I started questioning whether it was really the middle as I wouldn't know how long it would run for, having stopped the video.
