distrohopper

A distrohopper is someone that keeps switching from one linux distribution to another, not with the intention to just test a certain Linux distribution, but with the illusion to find the perfect Linux distribution that suits all his/her needs and to install that as his/her main Operating System. Ofcours that distro does not exist.

excuses for the distrohopper: not the latest version of a certain application, a certain feature is not available in his current distro but it is available in distro X, he/she suddenly hates the theme of his current distro and distro X has this nice iconset

distrohopping

distrohopping is a term for linux users who can't decide what linux distribution to use, for example
one may switch from fedora to arch then to mint to find the "right taste for them"
usually this is only a phase until one finds the right distro for them.
(Which is arch if they're a transgirl, gentoo if they're a masochist, etc.)

he switched from fedora to arch to nix and i dont even know what he's using
distrohopping is so aids i hate how he's one himself

Serial Monogamist

Someone who jumps from one relationship immediately into another one.

Serial monogamists can not stand to be alone and often suffer from vast commitment and insecurity issues.

Because they jump into relationships immediately after the previous one has ended, serial monogamists typically don't take the time to reflect on their behavior or why their previous relationships failed; thus, they end up making the same relationship mistakes over and over again.

Person 1: Damn, Dustin already has a new girlfriend?! It's only been two weeks since he broke up with his fiance! I think he's a sociopath.

Person 2: No, he's a serial monogamist...
