Slutt is end not graduate
Ya, I get it that this is the whole joke of the post, but I’m bemused to discover that I’m a slutt datafag.
I had not anticipated climbing to such a pinnacle in my lifetime.I have never heard anyone call computer science “datafag”, it’s usually called “informatikk” (like “informatics” which you can also say in English), and “slutt” just means end or stop, I have never heard anyone use it to refer to graduating.
“Fag” does mean “subject” or “field of study”, though, so computer science is a “fag”, and it might be considered a “realfag” along with the natural sciences, I don’t know.
Edit: I got corrected below, “datafag” is real
Ah, cognate to the German „Fach“ and the English “fact”. That makes sense.
Keep in mind this is Google translate
What newfags and oldfags? Can one triforce while the other cannot?
Shit… now I want to know what triforcing is
Found the Newfag!
I’m actually straight, but that just sounds awesome
It doesn’t matter. You wouldn’t be able to do it anyway.
Q: What did Princess Zelda suggest to Link after her third night without orgasm?
I don’t know. What?
“Please go gently.”
My dad did ‘datafag’ some 50 years ago, at least I think they called it that. It was the era of ‘hullkort’ (punchcards). Also I think it should be sluttdatafag all in one word. I seem to remember some old folks referring to graduate degrees as sluttfag. I dont think anyone has ever put ‘data’ in the middle there though. Sounds like AI hallucination.
You are right, in fact it’s still possible to study datafag, I stand corrected: https://uit.no/utdanning/program/795103/informatikk_datafag_-_bachelor
With regards to “sluttfag”, I couldn’t find anything real, but Google’s AI summary says “Et sluttfag er et fag på videregående skole som blir avsluttet med en standpunktkarakter det gjeldende skoleåret” - so it’s the final year of a subject that gives you a grade on your high-school diploma… according to a language model :l
To pull you back just a little “slutt datafag” is an expression for the subject which you are graduating. Or maybe google reads it as a verb + noun, since “slutt” means “stop” or “end” and assumes that “end” means “graduate” in this context. Anyways I don’t think it makes sense as a description for a person.
But you are free to call yourself a “fagperson”. This is a very common phrase to describe a person with education.
Oh sure. I get to be a slutt datafag for 6 hours, and then you come along and ruin it. Thanks!
Does that mean I became a slutt on graduation day?
A work slutt
Just wait till you hear about popular Norwegian names, like Simen (pronounced exactly the way you think).
Also make sure you mind your fart when on the road. Norwegian police are quite strict about that and could give you a fartsbot if you don’t comply.
Simen and his seamen friends are Norsemen
lol reminds me of when I worked in education; there was this hearing impaired kid. On the playground they’re playing shop, his dad must have been a construction worker or something. He yells at the top of his voice, does anyone want to buy some Simen (He was trying to say cement)? We, staff, had to discuss should we let him know or not, went with just laughing it off.
That was the right thing to do. 😄
Hehe yeah, I’m not sure how to explain that to a second grader.
It’s not the fart that kills you, it’s the smell
▲ ▲ ▲New datafag cannot triforce!
Neither can I, special characters misbehave here :( lol
Since putting in the effort to make it, I had to talk myself out of setting it as a custom BIOS logo on a PC at work.
Bottom one is more stop/end computer class, does not imply graduation, though fag is generally used as tradecraft. Which makes the books you use for it fag literature.
It is now safe to turn off your computer
Yes, when datafag become slutt computer science end
Btw, where did faggot come from?
Faggot is apparently a bundle of sticks (formerly a burdensome baggage)
Also the totally appropriate name for the bassoon in some languages, because it looks like a pile of sticks.
There’s a noodle called fagottini that I really want to try. I just can’t find it in the stores and I am not a noodle maker.
Hey it’s spelled “fagott” so that’s a completely different and did not at all make terminally online teenage boys snicker 15+ years ago
Fag in Norwegians has norse origins while faggot developed independently and only recently become a slur and come out of American vernacular.
In older English it was used to mean a burdensome person and it’s sort of resumed that meaning as it’s now often used to mean someone who is annoying.
Adding a fun double entendre when used to describe a homophobic person.
From fasces I think, same as fascism.
I knew those leftists where the real nazi
Datafag Slut sounds like some kink. Kinkshaming is not nice.
Realfag is the study of natural sciences and mathematics
For real?
Yes. I have a masters in realfag, and attended lots of lectures at the realfag building
As a Norwegian, I can confirm.
Just wait until you hear about the swedish slutstation
Swedes don’t count - from a Norwegian
This is true. I’m like half Swedish, and I am a musician. I do not count. I listen for my cue and learn the tune instead of counting rests.
My boss put me on inventory once when I kept coming up with a different number of mops in the storeroom.
For the record, we had one.
Can confirm. You can’t count.
I ride the bus to the slutstation every day.
It’s the biggest competitor to Sony’s PlayStation
On graduation, you get a fursuit
Common misconception, the fursuit helps your chances of graduating. Kind of a survivorship bias, thing. Once saw a guy get dragged down the hall and FNAFed into a wolf suit. She’s happy now.
The irony is i was a total slut for both data and sex
Are you sure that English isn’t the weird one here?
Something something back end
If you pronounce “fag” like a Dutch, a German would here “Fach” which translates to (school-)subject
yep, or “field of study”, so if you study in Norway, students who study the same might arrange a “fagfest” together, and a skilled worker is often known as a “fagarbeider”
In Dutch it would be vak.
Sounds like there’s some etymological relation between the words (but a cursory search didn’t immediately give me an answer, boo).
They are cognate: https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/fag
