How have you met people over the years?

Pretty much all of the above. The main places I tend to establish new social links these days are: HVZ Games Anime Cons Work And Online. But over the years? You have to account for all of the following. School Boy Scouts Career Center College Old Friends New Friends Larping MMORPGs Random D&D groups Coincidence Dragged into creepy vans and abducted by the government for MK-Ultra Experiments. (Happens to me all the time. -_- ) Getting rear-ended at a red light Stuck in lines Urban Exploration Ect

All the above as well, although I don't actually make a lot of friends online. I kinda prefer to interact with people on a more face to face level than through the internet.
