I only saw Hellraiser once and I understood what the OP was about lol.

Haha, I knew only a select few would get it. However, I also knew for the people who wouldn't it would generate a sad amount of vitriol.

Yeah no I got the reference.

It isn't making me laugh, but I got it.

It's not vitriol to have a different sense of humor than you, or to not understand a cult movie reference.

Now you using vitriol to describe anyone who disagrees with your sense of humor, or doesn't understand your oh so sophisticated joke IS (amusingly) vitriolic.

Examples of not vitriol :

"This isn't really funny to me."

"I don't get it."

Examples of vitriol :

"Of course I KNEW there would be a lot of people who just didn't get it. It's ok, I forgive you ignorant fools for not understanding my super witty sense of humor."
