Spot the reference. Used in
scary devil monastery to mark the witticism one just uttered as a quote
from some work of art or literature, the more obscure the better. Those who
know where the reference comes from reply in the form You are
$CHARACTER, and you owe me $ITEM
, where $CHARACTER is a character
from the story being referenced and $ITEM is something associated with that
character. This acronym is never actually expanded to its proper meaning in
the newsgroup; posters instead use obscure expansions, the most common
being slurp the robot
, leading to comments like I
pulled my hair out, but couldn't figure out which robot you're
slurping
.
