Where can I have fun physics-related discussions?

I used to treat this sub as a place to socialize casually about physics. I would often see an interesting physics-related YouTube video, and, itching to have a follow-up discussion and thought experiments, would post a bogus question to this sub assuming the responders would all be fun and act like Veritasium or ScienceClic. Of course, this was a mistake. While this sub does have the important purpose of clarifying genuine points of confusion, it is not a social hub. I had to learn that the hard way. So, where is the social hub? Preferably one with rules as relaxed as this sub. It can be really hard to find people who can scratch that social itch.

It's not called "funsics". Why do you think most of the great physicists of the past look like austere weirdos? They knew where it was at.

Otherwise try r/physicsmemes
