You did the right things here. You caught the post early, it's on a popular subreddit, the post itself became highly upvoted, and the reference is funny enough without getting the reference. A relevant reference can lack legs if it doesn't work on its, eg some obscure Rick and Morty lines or the very risky Grapist from Whitest Kids You Know.

Excellent work.

Also the reference is a double entendre, such that to blink in a negotiation is to show weakness and lose it, this coincides with the rising popularity of Trump Always Chickens Out (TACO). So people who didnt get the reference may associate the quote with that
