I am not 100% on it but I'm pretty sure "Treat" discourse comes from Matt Christman, Slop originally started as the "Slop in my trough, my snout descends" bit from r/CTH referring to when a new podcast episode dropped (that I'm pretty sure has it's roots in being called little piggies by Will and Amber at one point), and you got plenty of answers for Bazinga/AitR.

treat discourse was all over left twitter though? it's bigger so I just assumed it came from there. maybe it did spread from CTH, idk.

You might be right and "Left Twitter" would be correct either way so I should have just gone with that.

It's been years and I wasn't really too plugged in to left twitter, so if I'm wrong it's not a big deal.
