To echo what a lot of people are saying, just go for it with confidence (which is easier said than done, I know.) "Hey, I think we would be a good couple and I was wondering if you wanted to go out sometimes." And if they no with same confidence (or fake it) "I'm so sorry, i must have misread the situation. Don't worry, you don't have have to be awkward around me.". And that'll take the pressure off of both of you so it's not weird

Like what you like! l'm not here to yuck anyone's yum. You like Systemd cool. You prefer something like Runit cool. You don't care one way or the other, that's fine. Run what you want ... BECAUSE YOU WANTED TO

I actually wanted to make a systemd meme that wasn't a part of the flame war at all, so this meme isn't taking a stance, just here for your amusement.

That we're smug knowitalls that just goes around looking for logical debates.

 

Apologies if this has been done before

I get your point. Garamond memes just don't hit quite as hard.

They have their place. I won't yuck your yum.

Yes. I don't remember the exact numbers but the early 000s deal with computers and the later 000 deal with hoaxes and forgeries

Of course. And no worries. I know it's a niche joke. Buckle up it's a long one. Many public libraries, at least in the US, use the Dewey Decimal System (000-999) to organize their nonfiction books. The gist is that Mellville Dewey is problematic for many reasons, but for this example you have to know that when organizing books, Dewey's best practice is that known hoaxes are categorized and shelved right along with the nonfiction books in the same category. For example the book 1421 claims that America was discovered by the Chinese in year 1421. This book is shelved right along the rest of American history in 945.05. However, the 000's is the "contested knowledge" which has ghosts, UFOs, Bigfoot, etc. I feel that moving books like 1421 into 000s it lets librarians contextualize books by essentially saying "we think this book is as true as ghosts."

 

Saw this format a few times and enjoyed it

Besides physical violence, the most absurd thing I've seen was a man who bought a car after his wife pleaded not to because it would bankrupt them. He didn't like that she was "telling him what to do." They had two perfectly fine vehicles btw.

Maybe try a game in a different genre than fantasy. That way you won't constantly be comparing the system or your PC to Path Finder.

 

5e is fine but I also love indie games and creators

From what I looked up it means something like dude or mate. It's also used when expressing suprise? If native speaker has better insight I'd appreciate it.
