The Old Reddit Switch-a-roo

“Ah, The Old Reddit Switch-a-roo” is a catchphrase associated with witty comments found on Reddit that play off the original poster’s ambiguous description by deliberately highlighting the least relevant of two or more subjects depicted in the image or video. Each iteration of the comment is linked to its previous instance on the site, thus forming a long chain of comments that have been classified as examples of “Old Reddit Switch-a-roo” by the community.
