> Even into adulthood, I occasionally find myself making fun of people for being into specific things.

Yesterday I learned that there's an entire subreddit, dedicated to making fun of programmers. People take snippets of social media posts by programmers, and post them out of context (without links to the context), and everyone takes turns, making fun of the snippet.

That looks like a lot of fun... </s>

Hey, whatever creams your twinkie...

What is the subreddit?

I dunno. Something like “programming circle jerk,” or something. I suspect there’s hundreds of these types of things out there.

I’d also suggest that participating in these fora could have … adverse … effects on one’s future career prospects. I can assure you that many HR background checking companies scrape social media, and are getting fairly good at “deanonymizing” posters.
