Digital Gonad 

A remote worker who travels the world but can only talk about it in a conceited way. Key attributes may include:

• Traveling to cool places and ruining them in the process.
• Preaches about minimalistic lifestyle while life’s belongings are at parents’ house.
• Competes with US military for most unwanted presence.
• Unperturbed by the fact that their “unique find” coffee shop is filled with other digital gonads.

• Complains about capitalism while making 100x the average local salary.

• Sometimes doubles as a sex tourist.

• Leaves a trail of haters in their wake.

• Constantly reminds everyone about their odd working hours due to time differences.

• Travels the world but strategically leaves out Africa, India, and the Middle East.
• Disparages staying in one place but doesn’t realize they can only go their because people live in one place.

• Calls themselves a nomad but is over reliant on technology and infrastructure for basic survival
• Environmentalist but ignores their massive jet-setting lifestyle’s carbon footprint.

Things a digital gonad might say: Where’s the Wi-Fi? Why is the Wi-Fi bad? My Wi-Fi was bad so I couldn’t join the call. What’s the password to your Wi-Fi? Generally, too much discussion about Wi-Fi.
