Do you have Sup Forums tier friends?

You're doing it wrong, you should use it to improve your quality of life, not gain respect.

Seconded.

>not being so balls to the wall about your hobby you pique the interest people who would otherwise not be too interested.

After spending many years without seeing my cousin, a few months ago I discovered that he is quite enthusiastic about technology. (And he's a weeb now, that's maybe my fault).
We have not spoken for several years. I find he kind of annoying when he was younger, but he's a really cool guy now.
He really likes to learn about computers and stuff, He's now learning how to code, he even uses GNU/Linux. I was really surprised when he told me that he's learning to use Arch Linux and Openbox, by now he uses Arch as his primary OS.
In the other hand, he really likes manga and anime, I found that now he plays VN's too, he's really good at music so he even learns how to plays VN ost on Piano and Guitar!. We talk for hours about anime and stuff!

I really feel very proud about him, I call him sometimes after work, he's probably my only 'Sup Forums-friend', Despite he don't browser here or other websites, I think he's /ourguy/.

Find a Hacker Space near you.

>tfw I used to talk about linux and vidya with my cousin but now he became a complete normie.

Why first post is the best post?

>tfw my cousin was almost this but then "he" watched NGE and turned into literally asuka

He's a trap now. A really ugly, bald trap in a red wig that unironically says betsu ni. And uses a mac. I'm pretty sure he posts in desktop threads too.

Fuck life.

lol. That's nothing. Just go to a meetup and talk to people. You'll be fine.

Hi cousin.
(⋟īšâ‹ž)

Visit a LUG around you.

no, i don't have autistic friends to talk abut gnu plus linux with. but my inner autism commands me to expand my knowledge of the gnu plus linux to be more efficient and overall better @ work

You should buy and use only Apple prosucts then you will be cool like me

>Do you have Sup Forums tier friends?
Yeah, have some friends from high school that use Sup Forums as well. Met some folks in uni who also use Sup Forums. One from high school is a thinkpad fanatic like me, the ones from college are just poorfags, also like me. I have to say, all the thinkpad using niggers in uni are redditfags.

I use macbook

Yes I have a masters in computer engineering, most of my friends are geeks

>when everyone discovers you have a badass PC and then everyone only talks to you when they are having problems with their laptop or prebuilt

You really think he ever got over his autistic tendencies?

You can check out any time you want, but you can never leave.

Sup bitch

Sup Forums is the reason I own basically everything here

My girlfriend thinks I'm retarded when I start babbling about the merits of my decade old wired mouse or yet another Think branded floppy drive pouch but I like it

So you're basically a living meme.

Your girlfriend would probably also call you insane for having a 2 decade old car, back when they made it out of steel and wasnt designed to fail in 5 years to make you buy another.
Or why you might still use an old phone and don't get the newest iphone every season.

That setup really ticks all the meme boxes.

And the obey sticker ruins it all
