I cannot tell you how much I love that the process of
"my Linux distro suddenly booted into Gnome because I didn't realize a package I installed yesterday had all of Gnome as a dependency"
is referred to at
"getting gnomed"

That is strange
That a whole DE would come with a package like that
But I guess it could be worse
It could have booted into KDE

@bussphomet If a package is made specifically for a very specific Desktop environment (i.e. Gnome) it makes sense that it had Gnome as a dependency.
