How is it their fault exactly? explain?
You can't connect with everyone, it's IMPOSSIBLE. you can't expect the writer to connect with every single reader. lol wtf. you're talking out your arse.

Because they didn't connect with ME. So if >I< am voting...and they didn't connect it with >ME<, it's down to them. Not that they should change it or try to write to please me, but if you pick a line with a specific media reference, you're running the risk of someone not getting it. If I spit a Rugrats line, not everyones going to know what Im talking about, and I am still choosing to risk the line not hitting in making that deciison.

But you're ALWAYS going to have the problem of certain people not getting a particular line. let me emphasise. ALWAYS. Is that sinking in?
I don't think you're getting how much it is out of the writers hands. it's impossible to please everyone, if the odds dictate something to be IMPOSSIBLE then it isn't that persons fault for not proving otherwise. there is no way around the impossible.

It's about their ability to decide what is and isn't going to be accepted by a mass amount of people.
LB has quite a big UK population, and a reference to a basketball player isn't going to fly with everyone. Therefore, I'd avoid one. Just like how I wouldn't make a Tony Watt reference. You have to pick which lines will be accepted by most people and which won't. I won't getn them all, but if me and quite a few people also don't get that reference, overall the line will flop. Thats where it's down to the reader to make sure 9/10 readers get the punchline.

Filler is just using lines for rhymesake
You might need a scheme for a punch that ends in "cleanin out the closet"
And then you say some random shit before it because it rhymes "See me as a prophet...blah blah blah blah cleanin out the closet!"
If the phrase has absolutely 0 substance & is irrelevent to the context behind it as far as dissing your opponent... and its only purpose is to introduce a punch or a rhyme then its filler

Multies unrelated to the punch, played concepts and lazy concepts in general. BTD is a prime example, just formulaic and dull one bar set up - punch - one bar set up - punch. Lack of creativity, no relevance and played punches = filler.
