Back when I could use twitch I would find smaller streamers, and when they would name their animals I’d say “NAME YOUR (animal) BORT!!!”

Not once in 3 years of doing that has one single streamer gotten the reference. I’ve gotten several animals named Bort.

But they always laugh and say “Why Bort??? That’s a weird name…”

Then I tell them I named my son Bort. Bort is a strong name!

Sometimes other chatters will play along and say “I also named my son Bort.”

And the streamer NEVER gets it.

      Think it’s a Simpsons reference.

      They couldn’t find Bart nameplates, but there were many Bort nameplates, and even multiple children with the name.

    Here’s a hint, pal, when a mission goes FUBAR you just gotta a-BORT, or my name ain’t Whistlin’ Jack ‘No Lips’ Whistler!
