I've been active on reddit for 8 years and I have no idea what those in-jokes are. Care to fill me in?

Broken arms is legendary as well, tbf

What's the broken arms about? I would just look it up but it would benefit the site to share it here!

[โ€“] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago

Good god, I suppose you're right. Basically some dude posted an AMA about how he broke both of his arms when he was 14 and his mom would help get him off.

How does that video only have 15 likes?

[โ€“] EsotericEmbryo 3 points 1 year ago

Because up until now everyone would just link to the actual post but now it's down so I'm glad these youtube videos are still around now for sure! Also I am sad to see Reddit go BUT I like the idea of Federation much better so, all for the best!

Sure. :)

Here's a link to some info about the broken arms story: https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/reddit-broken-arms-story

Going forward any posts which vaguely related to incest or broken arms would invariably have comments referring to the original story.

As for the coconuts, there was a TIFU post about a guy who made a hole in a coconut and used ti to pleasure himself repeatedly. iirc he'd use it and then store it in his bedroom and one day he put his dick in it and it came out covered in maggots.

This link is dark but in case it comes back up: https://www.reddit.com/r/tifu/comments/6rr6ay/tifu_by_cumming_into_a_coconut/?st=JL9NG1AP&sh=cfe1e15a

There was then just a long running joke when people mentioned coconuts....

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Thank you! With context I actually do recall the broken arms one. The coconuts was new to me though

Broken arms was something about a teenager who had broken both his arms. I forget the exact way the conversation arrived at this but the joke is that his mom would help him jack off since he couldnโ€™t anymore.
