Previously, I wrote about how SN elevates shitposting to cathartic connections. I realised that these cathartic connections have been upgraded to the next level, hence the sequel.
It’s kinda like gradually, then suddenly. Okay, not as dramatic, I guess, but over time, you Stackers stopped being nyms on an online platform that I post obsessively to get sats to buy my beer and pizza. Your nym actually surfaces in my mind as I go about my daily routine. It started when I saw a cup of fish head curry instant noodles and got reminded of how @carlosfandango don’t like his food to stare at him. Guess what I did. I took a photo of it to show him at the Saloon.
Then, when @0xbitcoiner asked me my preferred way of eating cod fish, I took a photo of my grilled cod fish dinner to illustrate how the Japanese tuck into cod fish.
The most recent example was when I came across this Legal Writing book and was reminded of @siggy47. I mean, I probably won’t read the whole book studiously, but I think I will scan through a few chapters to determine the extent to which his writing style is influenced by his legal training. Sensei loves to investigate stuff for his own amusement.
And I will venture that this connection goes both ways. Recently, @Undisciplined told me that he thought of me when he saw something about how bid and BID exhibit vertical & horizontal symmetry respectively. I was so amazed by it that I forwarded his message to the entire English department. I don’t know if my colleagues were equally amazed, but well, it broke the monotony of an intense work day for me. That’s all it matters.
So, my question is: which 3 Stackers do you think about most often in your real life? And how so?
