Coomer's Riposte 

Phenomenon where a person has to be subject to Ignominy to make someone else look bad for knowing about NSFW content by name.
In my group chat the other day, my friend tried to make fun of me for knowing a porn actor's name in front of everyone but fell for the Coomer's Riposte.

"How do you know who Mia Khalifa is?"
"Wait, how do YOU know who that is?"
a ripster doesnt do what they do because they want to be cool, they just do it to have fun, the result is they look cool, and people try to do it too.

At the (fill in the blank mexican restaurant) the other night, I was standing at the urinal draining the main when a 9.2...possibly up to 9.5 Ripster scale fartquake exploded in the stall adjacent the urinal. I cut the stream off prematurely and headed for the exit with a texas-sized pee stain in my drawers.
