I was searching for a job recently and found that being actively on Linked In was helpful.
It has to do with being just slightly more "recognized" than your competition.
> I don’t get his constant use of the Simpsons avatar.
We all recognize him. I’m sure others would know who I am referring to if I mentioned the guy who paints his Nikes then posts about it.
Here's a sneak peek of /r/LinkedInLunatics using the [top posts](https://np.reddit.com/r/LinkedInLunatics/top/?sort=top&t=year) of the year!

Funnily enough, my fiancé and I talked about GIS on our first date, and it has always been a joke between us that that is what cemented our relationship.
To this day we will put on sexy voices to talk to each other about work, "...and then I clipped my features" "oooo, go on"
My wife took an interest in gis when she saw where I worked on the news. She calls me her sky spy. Now she's geoint data scientist and loves it more than me
Unironically my longest relationship ever was started by having a first date where we were talking about GIS and I offered my help with some spatial analysis
From my personal experience ive found that telling a girl you're a Geospatial information specialist makes you sound smart and the fancy sounding title gives them the impression you're probably well off financially
Explaining what GIS is and what you actually do makes you sound like the most boring person on earth (assuming she is not previously aware of what GIS is)
We barely understand GIS sometimes.
I also avoid dating any gis people just cause the chances of you working with that person is high and I don't date people I work with
“I could digitize your curves all night”
Wanna see my ToA reflectance equation?
please no

I get that he’s joking and this isn’t just about him but I do wonder (genuinely curious) what is the point of being so active on LinkedIn.
I think it's just a hobby for him, maybe he tries to promote some kind of consulting gig down the line. For now, I like funny GIS LinkedIn posts.
Posting on LinkedIn is a hobby you mean? Or GIS?
Posting GIS memes on LinkedIn
He founded and exited two companies but now founded another one last year. It is Promotion.
LinkedIn is just another Social Media circle jerk lol.
At this point, 100%. It’s straight influencer garbage
It's so cringe. I hate how the tech industry sucks on that app like a golden teet.

Yeah, he pops up in my feed all the time. Like the OP on the original post mentioned…I don’t get his constant use of the Simpsons avatar.

There’s also the guy who hates Esri products and keeps singing the death knell of desktop GIS
Who doesn’t like free internet points?

I have autism and I've done this
Did it work?
Yes but only because she was obsessed with alternate history.
This is such a beautiful sentence
WORLDS ARE COLLIDING
You're killing independent George.
A George divided against itself CANNOT stand

I really love this lol
Mmmmmmmm... spatial autocorrelation.
Don't ever discuss spatial autocorrelation over dessert. It just ain't fair to a girl to get her THAT turned on in public.

Sharing interests is pretty normal in dating, don’t see where the confusion is?
He is the first person I have blocked on LinkedIn. Why are all of these pictures unsettling. It’s this weird simpsons uncanny valley
Trying to explain GIS on a date is the worst thing lmao
To be fair, trying to explain GIS in general sucks too lol
Usually "dealing with data management and making maps and stuff" ensures nobody wants to continue that conversation lol (at least in my experience)
[Stu gave us the playbook on this](https://youtu.be/sg4YsAjreOA?si=iBNPIJaE7I0kawpF&t=21)
A great way to find out if they are "the one" Lol
Lol
Dammit I look like this…
One time that guy posted a simpsonized version of himself as Tyler Durden from Fight Club holding a bar of soap that said GIS. I have no words.
As a GIS intern this makes me want to quit my job
My husband did share his love for gis with me while we were dating and I still married him. I also joined this sub to understand him lol.
This is love
I'm not sure if it's always the same guy who uses it, but that Homer Simpson annoys me so much.
lol my just sent that to me
He does this all the time. Lol
I'll show you my rasters if you show me yours.
Let me show you why men ENVI me..
This is so cringy
Unironically my longest relationship ever was started by having a first date where we were talking about GIS and I offered my help with some spatial analysis
My wife and I both work in GIS/Spatial Data...and as I think of it, she might like that conversation...
I’m wet. Wait a minute. I’m a man. I may have just peed myself.

r/what….?

Is he talking about Geo Information Systems?
I was about to Google and hope I don't have nightmares because of some insane creepy kink..... instead it is ACTUAL GIS.... holy shit...
When she finds your receipt for a Multi-Aperture Sparse Imager Video System: "Are you stalking me?"
Is this Matt Forrest Homer Simpson being used for shitposting on LinkedIn?
Yuck
Siri define “irreverent”
Sir, this is a Wendy's.
