What the hell are you even talking about?
Comment on Anon introduces himself
yakko@feddit.uk 2 days agoIt’s no better or worse than going with the usual Egon quote about collecting fungus, molds, and spores. That’s how nerds find each other, one of them fires off a signal flare, revealing their location and putting themselves in danger, and other misfits sit next to them at lunch so they can all get hazed together.

How people find each other in school. Normal people probably just have to read magazines or act like each other to fit in. If you’re a misfit you’re never going to find other misfits with that playbook.

I don’t know about you, but my school had clubs that let me meet other people with similar interests. Ironically, that’s literally what the anime this is referencing is about.

I am happy for you. My experiences differed. I was the only kid at my school who knew you could spend recess in the library, and the clubs were all sports until much later.

We had different childhoods it would appear…

I never realized that when I was thrown into a locker, it was actually a giant allegory for a ‘gathering the group’ montage.

When you put your ego in front of the fourth wall, anything bad that happens can be a lot funnier.
