The 'Lindsay Ellis Moviebob Snub' refers to a series of interactions, or rather a lack of interaction, between film critic Bob Chipman (Moviebob) and video essayist Lindsay Ellis. For years, Moviebob frequently tagged Ellis in tweets and attempted to align himself with the 'BreadTube' intellectual circle, only to be consistently ignored or met with cold silence. This dynamic became a source of amusement for online onlookers, symbolizing the awkward social hierarchies and unrequited professional admiration within the YouTube commentary sphere. The meme is typically used to illustrate one person's desperate attempt at relevance or connection being met with total indifference by someone they admire.
