Somehow it's missing the clean cut Indian developer guy, the emo developer, the script kiddie, the Linux fan, the windows fan, the IBM frat boy, the open BSD lunatics and the one guy who loves trains too much

Indian guy - top right

Emo developer - top left

Script kiddy - top left

Linux fan - top left

Windows fan - top left

Ibm frat boy - top right

Open BSD lunatics - bottom left

Guy who loves trains too much - bottom right

Am the numero 4 / bottom right (except too poor for fursuit yet). Sometimes pretend to be a 2. Have two colleagues who work IT at a municipal service. The first is a 1 who pretends to be a 3 and the second is a 3 who pretends to be a 1. Even I find myself at a loss at them sometimes.

This image is frighteningly accurate. The IT guy at my current job is top left. The IT guy at my last job was top right. My friend from my discord server who works in IT has said for years that everyone who works in IT is either a neckbeard, a femboy, or a furry. He's a furry.

and don't call me Left!

Got a coworker on my team who is type 4. He's the glue that holds the team together, nobody knows anywhere as much as he does.

If he ever leaves, the whole team is screwed and the project is dead in the water.

The Inquisition has no power over the Adeptus Mechanicus, meat sack!

Number 1 is number 3 when online.

Number 2 is number 4 when at the convention.

There are 2 types of IT guys.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

Top right is the guy I want to be! Total chad!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 hours ago

I don't get what top right is supposed to be. Or bottom left for that matter

[–] [email protected] 7 points 19 hours ago

I guess I'm top left. If it has to be that three. I'm pretty sure whoever came up with that needs to show us where IT touched them on the Anatomically Neutral doll.

Why are none of them Noel Fielding?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 16 hours ago

noel isn't actually an IT guy, he's the random guy that broke into your building but is too chill to be kicked out.

Also he's kinda funny.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 16 hours ago

FTFY

[–] [email protected] 2 points 16 hours ago

What makes you do those things? Just curious.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 1 day ago

I'm not the bottom two, that much I know.
I can't grow a beard... oh no.

[–] [email protected] 29 points 1 day ago (5 children)

What's the stereotype with top right?

Asking because if I had to lump myself somewhere, it's that one.

But if it sucks... I guess I'll go wear a sailor uniform.

Do I have to choose one of this?

You can't be everything at same time???

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 day ago (3 children)

I'm not a dweeb, nor a hipster. I'm not a femboy, nor a furry. I am allied to all of the above, though.

What am I?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 15 hours ago

If you have to ask, you're #1.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

The guy who actually gets work done so in turn you are to busy to look in a mirror making you the de facto top left.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 17 hours ago

Damn, you right
