    The great thing about the interwebs is it makes everyone local. Oddly enough I’m meeting someone from IRC tomorrow.

      I met my wife on IRC. She made the mistake of saying I was cute (I wasn’t and am not). We referenced it in our wedding vows.

      15 years later, we’re married with a kid. She hasn’t realized, or at least acknowledged, her mistake yet. At least she doesn’t use IRC anymore, so I don’t have to worry about some other nerd stealing her from me.
