How do you determine so much about all these people at a glance? Do they all actually just stand there yelling HEY, I'M SUPER NICE BUT NO ONE DATES ME, WANT TO TALK ABOUT TF2?! ALSO I DON'T BELIEVE IN A HIGHER POWER!

We, a community dedicated around a niche game of ASCII characters representing psychopathic dwarves, are now profiling and judging other people who we don't even really know? Have we sunk this far? (also, spell correct really want's me to correct dwarves to wharves... wtf?). And does this topic really have to come up AGAIN?! Didn't someone just request we stop talking about this yesterday? Need we fall down this slippery slope over and over? We've already lost too many forum members to this...

I actually associate with these people, it's not at a glance. I was one myself ~5 years ago, even. It seems universal, too; there's a manga that I just remembered called "No Matter How I Look at It, It’s You Guys' Fault I’m Not Popular!" that is about one of these types (in a sympathetic light). Basically, it seems like a sort of coping mechanism for social anxiety, blaming others for it, which basically comes out as misanthropy and some sort of ironic "smarter-than-thou"ness.

Source? Context?

I have a very large feeling that that's a 4chan photoshop.

Ok, fair enough. Although I'm still pretty sure this topic will sail in to dangerous waters soon if we keep it on it's current heading.

The English automatically win any competition involving putting your flag everywhere. They put theirs inside the flags of other countries!

Hard science is like a sword, and soft science is like fear. You can use both to equally powerful results, but even if your opponent disbelieve your stabs, they will still die.

And is, in itself, composed of different flags from each Kingdom! (Except Wales, which was part of England at the time.)

No clue, picked it up off a /d/ humour thread.
Your guess and/or reverse image search is as good as mine.
Probably found the source. Seems to be a manga called Kangoku Gakuen. Plot is basically that 5 boys are transferred to what was originally an all girl school. Looks like it's choc full of ecchi and bound for some kind of harem plot so it's probably complete trash. That one panel is hilarious though.

I actually associate with these people, it's not at a glance. I was one myself ~5 years ago, even. It seems universal, too; there's a manga that I just remembered called "No Matter How I Look at It, It’s You Guys' Fault I’m Not Popular!" that is about one of these types (in a sympathetic light). Basically, it seems like a sort of coping mechanism for social anxiety, blaming others for it, which basically comes out as misanthropy and some sort of ironic "smarter-than-thou"ness.
Oh hey, Watamote. Having watched some of the anime, I wouldn't call Watamote "sympathetic" towards socially awkward people. Maybe the manga and light novels are, but the anime is basically a cringe comedy that's possibly the most cringey thing I've tried to watch. There's small victories for the socially awkward main character, but most of the time she's the universe's butt monkey and she never seems to make any progress towards her goal of not being a socially awkward butt monkey. And I'd imagine most of her awkwardness is exaggerated beyond what would be normal (or at least common, I'm sure there's real people as awkward) in real life for the sake of humor.

Children's shows are horrifying.  These days they're straight screwy, but they still have plenty of horror in them.
  If it helps most children can't grasp that kind of thing.  Its just plot advancements.

Why did I just volunteer to go to a banquet. I mean, sure, it's free food, but I'll have to pretend to be civilized for hours.

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.
