how many of these sheltered nerds see themselves as the ones wielding the wrench in that scenario though (genuine question; the tech sphere is one of the worst enablers of modern misogyny, I'd be 0% surprised if it translated to higher rates of DV among tech workers) > One of the worst enablers of modern misogyny Can you expand on that? In my reading, cops have the worst DV correlation @heathborders @emptyfortress If "enablers" means "providing free tech support for" I definitely believe this. If those sheltered nerds actually read xkcd regularly they likely wouldn't be defending the kind of shit they are though. Randall is the exact antithesis to the tech bro culture. |

There's a missing third panel to that called "what happens all the time", that says "I'm going to hit her with a wrench for no reason and then look through her computer because I can."
The guy opposite him is wearing a police officer's hat and says "That's fine."
