I don't understand the linux/programming socks meme though. I've met way more overweight, unshaven, smelly nerds than people wearing striped socks anywhere. At one convention there was one single person with cat ears, but that was it. Where does this association even come from when it's so rare (at least in my experience)?
It's more of an association in the opposite direction in my experience. A very low percentage of the Linux using ppl I know are trans, but a surprisingly high percentage of the trans fems I know use Linux.
Dammit, do I have to buy a fur suit now?
Devs have to get striped thigh highs.
Admins have to get fur suits.
Users have to grow a beard and pony tail.
Home-labbers must choose two from the above.
Them's the rules.
Okay, got the beard and pony tail, so if I don't want to be itchy, it's thigh highs.
Question: are my little pony stockings acceptable, or do they have to be hello kitty themed?
Woo thigh highs, beard and pony tail here I come!
No...
-t if you already have one!:-P
You mean you don't own one already??
Well, I've been faking it by running around naked all the time. Benefit of being half sasquatch.
Seriously, I want that purple fur suit now. Where can I buy one?
No, you can rent-to-own, if you'd prefer.
Isn't that kinda like borrowing a used condom?
Not that I'm complaining, I've done that a few times in emergencies
