How much Internet culture do you see "IRL"?
The largest local newspaper here has a secondary "tabloid" style newspaper that's published aiming at "younger readers" (read: idiots). It even has a section called "Bang" about sex and relationships.
The newspaper itself is titled "b", in lower case.
I guess they were thinking "/b/"?
I'm also right down the street from something called Otakon but that's less "internet culture" and more "vanilla anime convention filled with furries these days." My college does, however, actually have an active and locatable concentration of furries; I would be unsurprised if it became an official function of the college. Apparently someone in my college Japanese class was heading to a group meet and ... oh. A group of furries.
At MAGFest, we tried going on real name basis... that lasted 5 minutes, then everyone dropped back to IRC handles. We don't use real names; that guy is still called DragonTamer IRL. "BRB" is also a valid expression these days; and apparently we're allowed to reference "IRL" when actually talking IRL now....
Seriously, how much internet culture blatantly leaks into real life now?

I have a friend who quotes tvtropes a lot when he speaks. He uses phrases that appear on the site a lot, and uses pages to describe people like he'd call a girl a "Tsundere" and say stuff like "It got worse..."
A LOT
Also he used to laugh like this "Hahahaha ell-oo-ell ell-oo-ell."

Because you killed him, right?

I went to an Otakon and Anime Boston with my brother. This year I'm going with him and some friends to one in Montreal. Going to get drunk and probably wear a sailor moon outfit
CD, i was looking through my folder of sig/avs last night and I saw something that reminded me of you, and i think this is the appropriate thread to tell you aboot it
There's this guy who won the arm wrestling tournament at our entire school who could also drink every one of us under the table who is a 4channer
he knows all memes and pretty much everything internet decades before I do and I am horrified

Marty: The future, it's where you're going? Doc: That's right, twenty five years into the future. I've always dreamed on seeing the future, looking beyond my years, seeing the progress of mankind. I'll also be able to see who wins the next twenty-five world series.

I said "lol" once in real life a few years back, without noticing
I still feel really bad about this. I don't know how it happened.
I say brb jokingly and have no problem with it, though
I had the same experience when I said "BRB" while talking on my cell phone. I was like, wait, what the fuck did I just say?
I hear "that's what SHE said" a lot, I think that's an XKCD thing. Like on the ep of Pawn Stars that was on while I was in the barber shop... "Wow, that gun looks really small next to you" "... that's what she said."

A few of the women I know use "lol cat speak" in conversation at times and I want to smack them every time I hear it.
When I worked at a Gamestop, I took a picture of the drawer we were storing Pokemon Diamond and Pearl in and added the text "My pokeymans, let me show you them."

I have noticed that a certain set of girls will do this, because they think that it is cute. It is not cute, though, it's so fucking annoying.

You know what you have to do.
(I don't know what that actually means)

You said I'm cute for girly men, I think.

Is this an Internet thing?
Because I fucking hate it every time I see it
I can't really tell the two apart these days.
I have noticed that a certain set of girls will do this, because they think that it is cute. It is not cute, though, it's so fucking annoying.
This is important.
Did you do these things "ironically"?
