I am curious about the excessive use of this phrase on the site so I had a few questions. I have been around a long time but not consistently active. I am aware of the origin of the phrase in general but not its adoption on this site.
1) Why do users evoke this phrase ad nauseum, sometimes (literally) in excess of 5 times in a single post?
2) Why is this phrase used frequently (i.e., nearly always) in contexts where it makes no sense?
3) Who taught this phrase to Smogon users?
4) Is it possible to ban that person?
I welcome your esteemed expertise on the topic.
