One does not, because the breaking of said chain would require the
knowledge of the chain, and thus, discourse about said chain (vis-a-vis
the "breaking" of it [and that given an action of "breaking" (w/r/t the
chain) requires knowledge and discourse about the action (breaking)]) must
exist in order for the chain to be broken. Given that said chain is
referential to itself, it cannot, per se, be "broken" (v/a/v the
"stopping" of the "perpetuation" of the chain[1]), as the act of breaking
requires reference to itself (i.e. the chain) and thus "breaking" the
chain will in fact be perpetuating the chain. Even the stopping of
referring to the chain (or making the chain stop referring to itself)
(w/r/t attempting to "break" the chain) will perpetuate the chain, because
it is clear that stopping the referencing to the chain will imply the
existence of said chain, and thus through the act of not referring to the
chain the chain refers to the chain.
Then again, since the chain is defined in such a way[2] that not referring
to the chain is referring to the chain[3], it seems to imply[4] that the
chain is both everything and nothing[5] and thus cannot exist in our
reality.
The question, then, becomes whether or not the chain in fact exists or
whether it is a complete fabrication, and then whether or not the fact
that it (i.e. the chain) does not exist and is a fabrication implies the
existence of the chain. Further questions then ask whether or not the
existence or nonexistence of the chain[6] can be proved or disproved by
rational discussion.
Whether or not the existence/nonexistence of the chain can be proved or
not will determine whether discourse about the chain can even exist. It
could be possible that, for example, USENET posts about said chain which
include a lot of double talk and footnotes, cannot provide discourse about
said chain v/a/v the provability of the chain's existence or lack thereof.
Given that such USENET postings will begin to refer to themselves, it then
becomes a whole new can of worms[7] as to whether or not such
self-referentiality would then imply the existence (and therefore possible
nonexistence) of said chain.
-- notes --
[1] Which also implies that the chain proceeds in a linear{a} fashion, so
the breaking of the chain is the stopping of the perpetuation of the
chain (w/r/t the normal{b} direction of the chain) or rather, the
changing of its (= chain) direction which then only modifies rather
than stops the chain.
{a} Or in the very least, deterministic, if not exactly linear.
{b} Given that some definition of "normal" exists, it then becomes a
question of whether or not "breaking" the "chain" is simply
"changing" the "direction" of the "chain", or if it involves a
redefinition of quote-unquote normal.
[2] V/a/v the reference to itself.
[3] And still, there is no solid definition of "referencing" w/r/t the chain,
as that giving the chain the power to reference things (i.e. itself)
the chain must be made a "subject" thusly capable of perfoming such
actions in a metalingusitic fashion.
[4] Or, at least, it would be strong evidence in support of such a theory.
[5] Stringent to the definitions of such words{1}.
{a} A/w/a the definitions of "word" and "definition."
[6] And what those states ([non]existence) imply about the chain's existence.
[7] Not to mention that we need to consider what such sayings (e.g. argot)
actually say, that is, whether or not it is "metaphorical" or if such
sayings can even be metaphorical, and what a non-metaphorical meaning
of such a saying would signify.

Meant in the above sense as sayings having meaning to only subgroups of
culture, in this case probably most of the English-speaking world. And
maybe parts of Europe.

Thank you for that explanation, which was similar to the original post in

I wouldn't know, I never went to college.

Actually I did once.
