It is always weird reading threads in here. Outside of the how much money do you make thread everybody makes well beyond the median income straight out of college and worse with money than a teenager with their first job.

I've thought about this too, I chalk it up to the forums really started up in the early 2000s and back then were much more closely tied to the actual somethingawful.com front page. Thus the natural community was a bunch of nerdy teenagers which made up a disproportionately large share of the membership. Ten years later technology pays and many of those same teenagers are now programmers, engineers, consultants, etc that all pay extremely well.
