Someone asked a legitimate question about if a runner has ever been lapped during a race and came back to win. Then immediately a bunch of people replied to that thread with the same obvious answer that it could happen during a marathon on a track. The replies seemed to be half sincere, unbeknownst to have been already stated prior to themselves and half funny guys reposting the same comment under different pseudonyms for comedic effect. Thus was born the Marathon on a Track meme.
Somewhere is great story a troll wrote that was an epoch to the style.
