Socially comfortable nerds are hands down the rarest and the most supreme beings on the planet.

@ThatDude he must pass on the wisdom.

@ThatDude @byte-me Yes I am very extroverted 😃

@linuxxx do you happen to be single? 😛

Err.. for research purposes.

@ThatDude whoa. Dude, you know too much! Get off devrant once in a while. Do you know what colour the sky is?

@ThatDude refraction*

@byte-me Yeah I'm single 😊

@ThatDude Nope. It'll just get awkward from there. So, let's talk about the sky.

@ThatDude did you say something about a grandma and then delete it? Hahahah!

No, those would be our supreme overlords Igor and Grischka Bogdanoff.

Get woke.

@linuxxx sooo, when are you coming to the hague? 😃

@marthulu I was thinking maybe next weekend or so :)

@marthulu Or possibly even tomorrow, depends on who's in for coming along :)

And here I am. Well kind of. Most of the times. The only thing I'm introvert is getting somewhere first and waiting for people in every other kind of way I'm pretty extrovert. Did I mention: fuck steriotype?

@byte-me btw. First of all: love your name. It's awesome!

Second, in what country do you live? We're probbably able to tag a few nerds from there.

@linuxxx no shit

@Hade No shit what?

I'm an extrovert and a bitch. Does that count?

I guess I'm rare too ?

*look at me I'm special*

@MissDirection you win the internet for today

@MissDirection HELL YEAH!

@Wack Thanks! And you're lucky that you can keep it cool around people.

If you did that, I'd ruin it in minutes. So, no need!

@marthulu hey, what's the history about The Hague being called 'The' Hague? Why's there an article prefixed?

Is there like only one Hague? How's it special? I never understood that...

Takes all kinds! Glad I can be of service 😉

I am definitely an extrovert, very happy to hear we might be going to a co-working space.

Though extrovert doesn't mean socially comfortable. Also don't think it's either binary or mutually exclusive.

@byte-me It's funny, the Dutch way of writing it isn't really translatable I think so I'm curious why they put the 'the' in. 'den' is not 'the' as far as I know

@byte-me It is perhaps because it was a noun once, maybe in an ancient dialect, an then got used as the name of the place because it was a noun that describes it well. This is quite frequent here in southern France ("the" being translated as "le")

@Hedgepig what co-working space? O.o ... Also aren't extroverts socially confident/comfortable people by definition?

@byte-me yea it was called 'de haag' which means the forest. so indeed a noun @oscarascal. if you want to make it really complicated, they call it 's-Gravenhage sometimes to make it sound more posh. that translates to 'the forest of the earl of holland' or something haha.

@linuxxx i just woke up xd so not today lol

@marthulu That was rather a joke :P.

But maybe next week or any of the upcoming weekends?

@linuxxx @oscarascal so, yeah.. it says they kept the name based on mediaeval usage.

Also, interestingly, if the name indicates plurality like a collection of mountains, islands they use the article.

TIL. Thanks!

@linuxxx pshh i knew that 😓. haha I'm up for it

@marthulu Next weekend you mean?

@marthulu So is an upvote a yes or a no? 😅

@byte-me OMG @ThatDude was only +8000 last time i noticed

@sain2424 what's his secret? Bots? Fake accounts? Or are they really hard earned? Should we start investigating this?

@byte-me @ThatDude takes devRant seriously. You can see him participating in almost every rants.

@byte-me depends on definition I guess.

The definition I know really lies in a sort of social energy. So an introvert might gain energy from being with themselves or just one close friend, whereas extroverts enjoy large crowds of friends/acquaintances and get energy from that.

So someone could be an introvert, but socially outgoing, so they are comfortable socialising, but recourperate their energy alone. I am socially somewhere in the middle so not super outgoing, but not super awkward, but on the whole a big extrovert as I usually feel energised being around people.

@linuxxx yes haha, too lazy to type ;)

@Haxk20 Thanks for that upvote spree!

@Hedgepig so I guess it's subjective. Thanks for clarifying!

Thanks haha! Only 22 upvotes left, don't worry! @Haxk20

@Haxk20 Thanks! It's pretty lonely here with only me tbh :P

@Haxk20 What are you going to do when you reach 10K?

@linuxxx @Haxk20 hem hem. The the two of you notice that you both joined devrant on the same date??

@Haxk20 just noticed a coincidence!

@Haxk20 or may not be a coincidence. I don't know.

@ThatDude Stop gloating. Stop gloating NOW! :-P

@ThatDude hey, how come they didn't fix it for me!

@ThatDude aah. I see.
You're SO close to 10k now :-/ Damn.

@ThatDude have fun with it!
