A phrase used by Tumblr users to find other Tumblr users. If you use Tumblr, the right response to this is, "Thanks, I stole them from the president!" However, if you don't use Tumblr, get people that say this by saying,"Why thank you! The president wouldn't let me steal his, so I had to steal some from the vice president, cuz I don't use Tumblr! Ha!"
Some Tumblr user:Wow, I like your shoelaces.
Some non-Tumblr user:Why thank you! The president wouldn't let me steal his, so I had to steal some from the vice president, cuz I don't use Tumblr! Ha!
The Tumblr user:why
Some non-Tumblr user:Why thank you! The president wouldn't let me steal his, so I had to steal some from the vice president, cuz I don't use Tumblr! Ha!
The Tumblr user:why

A code phrase used by those in the tickle community to find other members. It was originally derived from the Tumblr user code, “I like your shoelaces.” The correct response from someone who is in the tickle community is, “Yeah, the president had what was coming to him.”

Secret Ler: Yeah, the president had what was coming to him.
Secret Lee: …holy shit
