        It’s a code phrase to identify other Redditors in real life. If you ask someone, “When does the narwhal bacon?” they answer, “At midnight.” Then you both know you are part of the cool secret Reddit club.

        It started in this thread. A user was bored at an airport and tried to identify other traveling Reddit users for fun.
