A Skyrim reference. What every person you approach says.
Also, this has become an overdone YouTube comment fad.
To say it, you must say "I used to..." and then finish with, "but then I took an arrow in the knee."
I used to be an adventurer like you, but then I took an arrow in the knee.

A meme adopted from Skyrim, in which NPC guards will declare "I used to be an adventurer like you, then I took an arrow in the knee." This quote can been altered to fit any situation."
On forum discussing NBA2k11 servers shutting down:
"I used to play basketball like you, then I took an arrow in the knee."

The phrase Arrow in the Knee is a phrase said by every guard in TES V Skyrim. It is in fact NOT a
phrase for marriage, that was just some dumb s*** started on some sort of social media by some random guy, that everybody blindly assumed correct. Wake up people! As it is actually an inside joke among Bethesda that references the absence of the grieves or leggings armor piece, leaving your legs from the knee down unprotected, allowing for a fatal wound to the knee to occur. Hence, arrow in the knee.
I used to be an adventurer like you, then I took an arrow in the knee...

A new phrase originated from the role-playing game "Elder Scrolls Skyrim." Sometimes a guard in Skyrim will explain his life-story to you and then end it with the fact he took an arrow to the knee thus ending his adventure capabilities. The phrase has become extremely popular on the web, and his used very often.
P.S. REALLY ANNOYING WHEN USED TO MUCH

"Took an arrow to the knee" is a popular internet meme derived from the video game "The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim".
In the game, different characters in the game will say, "I used to be an adventurer like you, then I took an arrow to the knee". To parody this the meme has taken the format, "I used to X, then I took an arrow to the knee".
This meme is usually found in the comment sections of various websites and is expressed with facetious intent.
I used to not know what this meme meant, but then I took an arrow to the knee.
I was watching this video, but then I took an arrow in the knee.
