I met someone in the official XKCD channel. That person referenced a private server. Later I went to a LAN party where another attendee happened to be on that same private server. I figured that had to be significant and joined the server myself. Some months later, a fluke caused my face to be displayed on a webcam feed I had linked there. My now-wife saw it and proclaimed me cute.
Really that was all it took, but she’s never since done anything that caused me to regret falling for her.

I gotta say, this does not seem like a replicable strategy.
I think “be open to meeting women where ever you go” is good advice. But I kinda doubt OP is gonna have great success meeting someone specifically by joining an IRC

Yeah, it was pretty unlikely back then and much more so now. I guess I should have included a sarcasm mark - I wasn’t offering it as a serious suggestion. I do wish them luck meeting someone to love.
