A GNU/Linux distro for insecure teenagers who desperately need to prove to themselves that they're l33t. Arch users (archtards) are firm believers in The Archtard Way, which dictates that editing configuration files by force is the path to l33tness (see gentoo), even if all they're doing is directly following instructions from the Arch wiki.
Having installed Arch, one of the first rites of passage for the Archtard is to visit the Ubuntu forums and irc channels. Archtards love Ubuntu, because it's one of the few communities where they feel they can assert their l33tness without being laughed at. They like to offer insightlful solutions such as "u should install arch if u really want to learn linux", or to point out how n00b the Ubuntu distro is, even though they were using Ubuntu last week.
(clueless ubuntu user) how do i add myself to the plugdev group?
(ex-ubuntu user, now archtard) dude, I don't know, you should install arch linux.
Archtard quandary:
(archtard) Can u suggest any services I can disable to optimizize my system some more? I want to get rid of some bloatware so KDE runs faster.
Typical conversation between archtards:
(archtard #1) fluxbox > gnome
(archtard #2) fvwm > fluxbox
... and so on.

These linux zealots don't know anything; they're just trying to act like something they're not, probably for attention or because they think it makes them look cool.

A fan of the Linux operating system stereotyped to be a geek because of the need to memorise hundreds if not thousands of commands to actually use the computer.
They are usually very defensive of their operating system and hate Windows users and Mac addicts alike.
Windows user: I'm just going to play Rome:Total War now
Mac user: I think I'll edit some photos or create a movie perhaps
Linux geek: I can't play games or edit photos. I'll entertain myself memorising some cryptic commands - that will help me succeed in life
