    Sorry for any confusion - it’s genuinely awesome that you guys connected. Just the usernames were funny to me.

    I would love to find a relatively local friend on lemmy.

      Oh, I wasn’t taking it any kind of bad way! I was just adding context that yeah, we’ve got funny user names, but I also genuinely think the fartographer is a pretty cool human in general.

      The great thing about the interwebs is it makes everyone local. Oddly enough I’m meeting someone from IRC tomorrow.

        I met my wife on IRC. She made the mistake of saying I was cute (I wasn’t and am not). We referenced it in our wedding vows.

        15 years later, we’re married with a kid. She hasn’t realized, or at least acknowledged, her mistake yet. At least she doesn’t use IRC anymore, so I don’t have to worry about some other nerd stealing her from me.
