Arch isn't a building, it's just a pile of the construction materials.

That sounds more like Gentoo. With Arch, you at least get the foundation with plumbing and electrical run to the site.

I use Fedora Kinoite. When I want to rearrange furniture, I build a new house with correct arrangement and use it instead.

Arch is buying furniture, Gentoo is Ikea and LFS is making everything out of plywood yourself.

Is Arch like the linux version of being Vegan? ie the running joke is people using Arch can't get through a conversation without mentioning it? I feel like I've see basically a carbon copy of this comment on so many posts about Linux I'm wondering if there's an "in joke" there I am missing, lol.

Yeah, it is a running gag.

But i am really using Arch, btw

Don't look at my instance's name

I am pretty sure I have to switch to the same instance you're on.

Sometimes a man needs to do what a man needs to do.

Nice to meet you and thank for posting this. Just so you know, I run Arch and I enjoy meat, titties and beer.
