Probably says more about your social circle than IRC. There's a lot of channels and if hookers and blow are more your speed than say, gentoo, you can certainly find a channel primarily discussing them.
- Gruselbauer 10y agoFirst off, I don't believe there's anything even remotely wrong with being a nerd. Quite the opposite. I do hang around in channels focussing on a diverse range of topics, from various freenode foss-channels to torrent trackers to radical politics and also, yes, shadier communities. I just believe that even the most benign, non-techy use of IRC poses demands that are incompatible with the vast majority of users today. But that's a strength to me. IRC is filled to the brim with some of the smartest, most creative, exciting people I could think of.

- serf 10y agoi'd just like to mention that hookers/blow & geek/nerd/gentoo are not mutually exclusive. that is all. see also: DEFCON, HoHoCon, pretty much any alt-Con.
- natermer 10y agoAll you need to have hookers and blow is money. Don't need to be sexy, smart, interesting, or good looking. Sounds like nerds and hookers and blow can go together just fine.
- saintzozo 10y agoIn fact, most men who enjoy hookers or blow suffer from low social standing. It takes a loser to seek fulfillment through the perverse.
