azuarc 08/05/20 11:08:35 PM #4:	I most frequently encounter these responses in media where the original source treats the individual in question like they're a household name. This happens (well, happened) a ton on Yahoo, where the clickbait headline would be something like "Famous YouTuber gets arrested by FBI" and then you click the article and it's some dude named Jake Paul, and your reaction is "should I know who this is?" But the article totally makes the presumption that you already do going in, because it doesn't bother to explain that person's significance or it downplays it considerably. It's prevalence has led to it being a cross-over phenomenon, but there's the roots of it. --- Video Game Music Contest 14 champion: Idola Phantasy Star Saga - Endeavour <cite>azuarc posted [p:943044896] in Discussing...
