    I want to TLDR it but I can’t because I’m too drunk and all my attempts have failed. Watch the clip if you can/want.

          It’s your personal identifying code. When someone clicks a link with it, Google knows they got the link from you. They want to know who you’re talking to on other platforms for their data models.
