There's a subreddit called 'Beetlejuicing' and I have to admit, upon hearing the name, I thought it was some sort of twisted community dedicated to tormenting insects. Thankfully, I was wrong.
According to internet culture encyclopedia Know Your Meme, the term actually describes a commenting phenomenon observed online when someone replies to a post or comment with a username that is contextually relevant to the topic of the discussion at hand.
It sounds clunky, but believe me, it's much simpler and funnier in practice. Especially when it occurs by coincidence and the commenter is unaware of the connection. So continue scrolling and check out our favorite posts on the subreddit!

I worked for a publisher of school books. You REALLY don't want to know what they actually cost. With college books, they will put in something like a CD that can only be used once and renders the resale value of the book to zero. Houghton Mifflin Harcourt.
Load More Replies...Probably the earliest somewhat official mention of the term occurred on April 4th, 2010, on Urban Dictionary, when its user tankedgirl submitted an entry for "beetlejuiced," defining it as a phenomenon that occurs when a person appears after they have been mentioned several times in conversation.
The earliest known use of "beetlejuicing" in reference to a thread was posted in the r/AskReddit subreddit on January 13th, 2013. There, Redditor bigfrank84 replied to a comment containing the name "Big Frank," to which another Redditor, tynosaur, responded "One of the best instances of Beetlejuicing I've ever seen."

This Was His First Comment In Over A Year
The word itself is derived from the 1988 American horror comedy film Beetlejuice.
It has a scene where the titular ghost explains to the protagonist Lydia Deetz that she can summon him anytime by repeating his name three times.
"I can't help you from this side, but here's how we do it. So simple. Say my name three times," the ghost says. "That's all. I'll be all yours. Then I'll bring you over here in style."

But self-reference is spread far beyond internet comments. For instance, a picture could be considered self-referential if it contains a copy of itself and a piece of literature could be considered self-referential if it includes a reference to the work itself.

In philosophy, self-reference is primarily studied in the context of language and is to a large extent centered around paradoxes.
A paradox is a seemingly sound piece of reasoning based on apparently true assumptions that leads to a contradiction. One of the most popular examples is the liar sentence: "This sentence is not true."

Self-reference within language is not only a subject of philosophy but also a field of individual interest in mathematics and computer science, in particular in relation to the foundations of these sciences.
However, is there anything that makes a concept come to life more vividly than silly internet jokes?

Divinyls. I had a neighbor who played "I touch myself" on loop with her windows open and full blast for close to 6 weeks. The song came out in November and she hated everything to do with Christmas so she was doing it purely out of spite at another Jesus loving neighbor who decorated their yard. I'm a pacifistic but that's the closest I've ever come to reaching out and touching someone else in anger.

Poor FBI Agent

Mail them to Havasupai Tribe, P. O. Box 10, Supai, Arizona 86435. First, this post office is at the bottom of the Grand Canyon and the mail is only delivered weekly by mule. Second, its a federal offense to interfere with the mail. If there's nothing suspicious about an envelope with no return address that has the keys and a note inside and says "Hold these keys until Tuesday. I''m playing a prank and I'll pay you $50 to hold them until we come pick them up", there is no reason for the FBI to ever get involved. Third, the Havasupai are a self governing people and the FBI has no jurisdiction. Lastly, I get a nice trip to go get my keys back and I can give the tribe a surprise check for $1 million when I show up.
