View submission: Reddit meetup 2018 - Kolkata
I have always wondered what do you discuss/gossip on such reddit meetups. Can someone who has attended any elaborate?
Were there lurkers walking around this meetup, as if they are lurking around randia? xD

Usually people start talking with those they prolly know from previous meet ups or happen to have a similar interest.
Those who don't belong to either of the categories simply sit and nod their heads while trying to blend in with the environment.

I haven't been to one but I'd guess it is just polite conversation that you'd make when you're sitting with strangers at a party.
Sometimes you probably end up finding a common ground like sports or TV show and then the conversation can really flow. Then some people will start dropping meta jokes about door handles or 1.6 lpm.

I attended one today. Tonnes of people so it was easier to move to a new person, just introduce yourself and ask them about the subreddit a they follow, where they work and stuff and eventually trying to start a conversation about other things.
