i bet you eat spaghet on the pot 

Eating spaghet on the pot is a cardinal sin in most countries and being accused on such is quite a claim, enough to make people very sad.

Most notably, it is used against female streamers when you join their chat. This will make them very upset and they will have a go at you for saying such things about them. It makes most people you say it to break down crying into rivers of tears as these words have just been uttered.
guy1: *Logs onto Twitch and joins streamers stream*
guy1: "I bet you eat spaghet on the pot."
streamer: "What the fuck?? I can't believe you would say that.. It makes me so upset people still do stuff like this today. Mods, can we ban them please?"
