    I had someone ask me what os I used, then when I said Linux he went “oh you could only go 10 minutes without saying you used Linux huh” and I’m just like dude you literally asked, wtf do you want from me

      Without knowing your dynamic or their tone:
      They probably just wanted to poke fun and baited you into setting it up. It’s kinda like updog or ligma.

      Of course, it could also be ignorance, or malice, but personally, I don’t randomly ask people what OS they use unless I expect them to even understand that question. Their reply suggests they are well aware that you’re using Linux, so ignorance is unlikely, and if they knew your answer and didn’t want to hear it, they probably wouldn’t ask.

      my friends do shit like that all the time like you were just saying “windows does stupid thing” and all I said was “linux does this instead they should be doing that on windows” and immediately the neckbeard with fedora gifs start flying
