DYERTJD?

DYERTJD?- Short for "Do You Even Read The Junk Drawer?" is a phrase that is often used in an ironic sense to notify someone who just posted a link or topic that has already been discussed or linked in that junk drawer or a previous one. Technically it is an ad-hom and therefore against the Blazersedge conversational rules but because it is used in an ironic and joking way (instead of actually saying "do you even read the junk drawer?" you are referencing the joke of "do you even read the junk drawer?") it is allowed. The first documented appearance of DYERTJD? happened on 9/24/2009 in a junk drawer called "Long Live the Prez" by (at that time) junk drawer regular galaticlove , but the original phrase "do you even read the junk drawer?" had been commonly used in the junk draw for a while. The origins on the phrase are unclear( or at least unknown to the bedgewiki staff).
Deriv. you don't read the junk drawer?

  1. This has also been used in real life scenarios such as the August 2010 Blazersedge BBQ, where X-man rebuked Dario about the latter not remembering that the former was cooking, more or less (full account too lengthy for comment)
