Tech evangelism Memes

The eternal Linux paradox in three panels. First, we're all high and mighty about how "Linux is superior!" Then reality hits when we need to do something basic like print a document or play a game. Suddenly we're sheepishly booting into Windows like the tech hypocrites we are. Twenty years of Linux evangelism and I still keep that Windows partition for "emergencies" (aka anything requiring normal human functionality). The dirty secret of every Linux purist is that Windows backup they never mention in forum arguments.

Oh, the face of pure existential pain when someone casually mentions Windows in a room with a Linux user! That neck vein about to pop as they physically restrain themselves from launching into their rehearsed 47-minute TED talk about how they compiled their own kernel just to browse Reddit. Meanwhile, everyone else is just trying to talk about normal human things like weather and sports, but our Linux friend is sitting there, twitching, desperately waiting for someone to ask "so what OS do you use?" Nobody will ask. Nobody ever asks. But they're ready. They're always ready.
