    Originally a [Batman] marketing campaign, why so serious can be used as a response to someone taking themselves or a particular topic too personally or seriously.

          The most popular phrase from [The Dark Knight]. used by fanboys and the genuinely joker-like characters alike. Although its a [cool thing] to say, say it to much and someone may [punch you in the face].

            [First off], this is used mostly by emo kids who use it for a picture [caption] on their myspace. People who say it dont realize how annoying it is. Also, asking why so cereal? deserves a punch. [Just wait] until another movie comes out then steal shit from there too!
