top row: top me

bottom row: bottom for me

[–] teslasaur@lemmy.world 0 points 5 days ago

Dunno. I worked in a firstline where everyone was a gymguy. One was a competitive bodybuilder.

The other missing trope here is the business casual guy.

Or the industrial IT with the only non-dirty ppe on the site.

There are at least six.

Does the bottom left have striped socks?

Plain white with bows

The furry just realised he left the oven on.

3 of these are the same person at different stages and you can't convince me otherwise.

I think it's sort of like the stages of grief, where it doesn't happen in any particular order.

For instance, I know a couple of people who started like the top left (they tend to describe this as their "neck beard phase", who then became the top right. Then they became the bottom left (one is a trans woman, the other still identifies as a man, but enjoys presenting as a femboy sometimes). Then both of them became furries once they had enough disposable income.

I have another friend who started as a furry, but then became the top right when she needed entered the professional world (she was also in boy-mode at this point). Then this made her be miserable, especially because she was even more unhappy in this more conventional mode of masculinity, which made her become the top left. Then her egg cracked, and she turned into the bottom left. She says she doesn't have the time or money to actively be a furry anymore, but she's happy because she has a lot of friends who are, so this allows her to be close to a community that was an instrumental part in her finding herself (also for "helping [her] to not fucking kill [herself] as a depressed teenager")

I imagine that it would be possible for any order of events to work, for different people. And some people may visit certain squares multiple times

Weird, I'm not in the list. I'm something like this:

Good for you! We do need more women in IT.

[–] FiniteBanjo@feddit.online 0 points 5 days ago

Wdym there are tons of women, depending on how liberal you are.

I'm in this picture and I don't like it.

[–] HubertManne@piefed.social 0 points 6 days ago (1 children)

in past days I was in this picture.

[–] WoodScientist@lemmy.world 0 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Honestly, that would be a beautiful epitaph. Or the inscription of some monument. Imagine a cemetery on a hill overlooking a city. A tombstone is built in the form of a frame, through which can be seen the city below.

In past days, I was in this picture.

[–] HubertManne@piefed.social 0 points 6 days ago

wow. it is more profound than I had intended.

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 0 points 6 days ago

The four kinds of Portlander.

Back-end dev, front-end dev,
full-stack (possibly Twinkpad-to-Linux) security enthusiast, sysadmin.

[–] AceFuzzLord@lemmy.zip 0 points 6 days ago

I'll take bottom right. You know at the very least there's a higher chance they'll try not to make any uncomfortable remarks as they work.

[–] yuri@pawb.social 0 points 6 days ago

i’m so fucking glad it’s the screaming portrait, it’s used in such wild places in the game

[–] CheetahHybrid@pawb.social 0 points 6 days ago (2 children)

I've been all 4 at one point or another

[–] testaccount789@sh.itjust.works 0 points 6 days ago (2 children)

Quite the banner on your profile.

[–] SethTaylor@lemmy.world 0 points 6 days ago

Don't anyone show that to John Oliver. He'll have a stroke

[–] CheetahHybrid@pawb.social 0 points 6 days ago

I do happen to be on the pawb.social instance

[–] Dogiedog64@lemmy.world 0 points 6 days ago

And you will be again.

[–] SpankyDoodle@eviltoast.org 0 points 6 days ago

I’m closer to 2 but trending towards 3 in my spare time.

[–] starchylemming@lemmy.world 0 points 6 days ago

what not enough fresh air and sunlight does to a mfer

[–] hemko@lemmy.dbzer0.com 0 points 6 days ago (1 children)

The first one looks familiar

[–] hemko@lemmy.dbzer0.com 0 points 6 days ago

No I mean like looking at mirror 😂

[–] cadekat@pawb.social 0 points 6 days ago (1 children)

At some stage in my life, I've been every person in this image.

[–] Bytemeister@lemmy.world 0 points 6 days ago

Yeah. I'm trying to skip all the stages and go straight to goat farming.

[–] chickenf622@sh.itjust.works 0 points 6 days ago

Oh god I don't want to be Alex from YIIK 😭

You forgot the main boss fight.

[–] NigelFrobisher@aussie.zone 0 points 6 days ago

You either die in an ATF siege or live to become the sysop.

Could be a Unix guy.

[–] voxthefox@lemmy.blahaj.zone 0 points 6 days ago (3 children)

What you don't see about the bearded guy is the farming tools in the background because he's so burned out with tech that his hobbies have turned into basically anything aggressively not tech.

Feeling targeted here.

My hobbies include cozy games, gardening and tinkering.

[–] TRBoom@lemmy.zip 0 points 6 days ago

I started making hard cider :)

[–] Dogiedog64@lemmy.world 0 points 6 days ago

That's what happened to me, though I skipped tech entirely and went straight to the brewhouse. Physical jobs are so much more rewarding.
