One time I went to a local Reddit meet up. Yep, it was all that cringy

Reminds me of the reddit meetup in 2014?
It was at a tech office on a Saturday.
I got a free beer, smelled the atmosphere, and realized it was gonna be a mtg filled with angry drunken nerds, I left.
The next day, the organizers sent a mass email asking for people to chip in. Someone broke the pool table. Someone ripped pages out of a manual. Someone stole name plaques from a managers office.
They complained about having to clean up vomit and we can “do better redditors!”
I think about that a lot.

a local reddit meet up? i have never heard of something like that. does reddit users go outside?!?!?

God it was so awkward, it must have been like 2011 because I was freshly 21. And it was at this local bar. And everybody greeted eachother by " the narwhal bacon's at midnight" and it was just fucking weird. For a while our local subreddit was running a monthly one and then it just kind of stopped.

To be fair I was pretty cringeworthy on my own at that age

Is this “the narwhal” thing worth looking up?

Please, elaborate, I have only read about these meet ups, but never actually got to know, how they were…

I went to one 10 years ago and it was fine just a bunch of normal dudes and a few women drinking beers talking about random stuff, for what it’s worth.
