It still cracks me up when I see quotes of reddit users in a random thread (taken as a newsworthy story, lol). It makes me wonder how far it can go with obscene usernames. Imagine having a good breakdown of a problem posted by someone called AnalNosferatu69 that you just can't quote.

Then you get “a reddit user”

Then you lose a fun of citing @ilikeboobies as an expert.

I'd not be a coward to cite you if the chance arises.

There was a subreddit dedicated to that exact phenomenon. I forget what it was called.

Have your own reddit account with an inoffensive name, copy the comment, paste it as a reply to another instance of the same question, quote your own reddit account in the article. Foolproof!
