View submission: I am Victoria from reddit. AMAA!

No, pretty much everyone who works at reddit reads reddit. We talk about old threads, memes, etc.

My favorite movie? I have *so* many. I worked in a videostore during high school, so I am a movie nerd. Let's go with a few for starters:

Mystery Men (this is my totem film. If I were a movie, I'd be this movie)
The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou (I love all Wes Anderson movies)
The Birdcage
Pee-wee's Big Adventure
James & The Giant Peach

For favorite TV show... I'd have to say X-files. It's an all-time classic.

EDIT: and you added the part about the person browsing reddit next to me - I actually would mention reddit, probably!

I've never spoken to anyone who considers Mystery Men their favorite movie. I thought I was alone in this world. When I was younger I would actually watch it on repeat on occasion

Which thread keeps coming up in conversation, or the most popular? What is the most popular meme amongst redditHQ?

"THAT'S IT! WE ARE THE SUPER SQUAD."

That's my favorite movie too! And the Life Aquatic is just magical.

Mystery Men is so good. Underrated.

X-files

I just started watching this series fully. I saw some bits growing up but never from start to finish. It's truly awesome Sci-Fi television that just doesn't exist today.

Important question from a Frenchman: have you seen the original Birdcage movie and why is it so much better than the US remake?

Mark Mothersbaugh (from Devo) did music for 3 of those ; Mystery Men, Life Aquatic, and Pee Wee.
