  You forgot network admins!

  Also most of the other overlaps:

  Gamers and Sailors: constant swearing Connoisseurs: get told it’s not a real job Admins: bothered by ping issues

  Sailors and: Connoisseurs: always in search for the nearest bar Admins: Surfing in their free time

  Connoisseurs and Admins: explaing stuff to morons who just want to consume

  Gamers, Connoisseurs and Admins: their private equipment is top notch as well (and probably in the basement)

  Admin, Sailor and Gamer: the unwashed masses

  You know what’s not a bad port? Dr. Aroused’s Boxed Ruby Port.

  I get mad at Windows features occupying ports, even when that feature isn’t in use.

  Fun fact that may or may not be true: The left side of a ship used to be called “larboard” (to go with starboard) because that’s where the larder was - where the food was stored, and this was supposedly changed to port because that’s also where the wine was stored and it was both easier to say and easier to identify as being different from starboard.

  Another fun unverified nautical fact: The word shit originated as an acronym for the storage of cow manure during transport at sea - Store High In Transit. Dried cow pies apparently have…violent reactions to salt water.

    Shit comes from the old English word scitte which then became middle English schyt. Be

    It goes back to proto info Europeans and has cognates with many other euro languages, notably Scheiße.

  I’m all three. Kinda funny, but I don’t drink much port and rarely find a bad one.
