Cool Story, Bro



"Cool Story, Bro" is an Internet meme which, like all other memes, got its popularity from 4chan, specifically /b/.

The phrase is used on Current Events when a user posts a long message, which is known as a tl;dr. Out of nowhere, a troll will swoop down without reading the message and see the wall of text. Without thinking, he immediately posts, "Cool story, bro" much to the dismay of the original poster.

Of course, like all things CE gets its hands on, they run it straight into the ground. "Cool story, bro" is now moddable. As a result, users may attempt to dodge moderation by using variations of the phrase instead.
