Not exaggerating when I say this comic was the cultural version of a war crime (hexbear.net)

I thought it was about verbally affirming civility long past the point where it's become clear that the interaction is hostile. I feel like the sealion is justified, but would be better served with a, "Fuck did I just hear you say about sealions, you piece of shit?"

    This is like the third definition I've heard and I think it really highlights how ambiguous it is to define a word based on a comic as opposed to an actual definition. Some people think it's about civility like you said, other people think it's about bad faith requests for a source like Ulysses said, and still other people think it's about following someone around to other threads and refusing to disengage like someone else said. This is why I say I have no idea what it means, despite having seen the comic and seeing the word used in various contexts. I hate it.
