category A: chapo trap house & cumtown bullshit, i'm not even sure what exactly comes from these, but tons of people here are big fans even if the posting doesn't often indicate as such. i'm pretty sure "Treats" is from chapo
category B: "adults in the room" and similar is just repetition/shorthand of liberal rhetoric, done mockingly. Citations Needed's verbiage have been copped in some cases 'thought terminating cliche' but i'm sure a lot of it is organic from people reading the same bullshit in 100 newspapers for years
category C: Domestic Products, from the Power Posters; "Bazinga-Brain"... but don't forget stuff like "we may have to start making excuses for the terror" or commonly recalled taglines (and joking about taglines lol)
"Adults in the room" is from Yanis Varoufakis' about the fucking over of Greece by the EU lanyards even though it also fucked the EU and made everything worse nd everyone knew it.
First time i really i heard treat boys was from this chapo bit.
Finally, a sample of that podcast that shows them saying treat... honestly in this context, it's funny...
