Hackers if it was real:
Picture like 6 people, in hoodies and/or t-shirts, one wearing shorts in the middle of winter "because I hate the heat." Another wears a hoodie, even in the summer, because "I'm always cold."
One of them says, "yeah I put the package on NPM." Then they wait. And then they check on something. And he says, "YES OUR SUPPLY CHAIN ATTACK WORKED."
He is staring at a janky shell prompt on a machine, checking process lists, running SQL queries and dumping the data through an SSH pipe through a VPN and several hop servers.
And then he says, "should we install a cryptolocker?" and one of his friends says "nah too high risk, we can just sell this on the dark web." So they open Tor browser, log into a shady data broker marketplace, make a post, and offer it for an obscene amount of BTC.
And they either get their door kicked in because their "mixing service" was a front, or they get away with it... for now.

Also, none of them have the motor skills to rollerblade. One of them constantly says "my knee hasn't been the same since the shopping cart accident" if you bring it up. Another says "I have Tourettes, I'd die if I tried."
And as aforementioned, most of them have no fashion sense. One of them is vaguely alt, tells everyone they're scene or emo or whatever, but in a "they're trying too hard" sort of way.
Another constantly talks about Tron like it's their personality. They WILL infodump about Tron if you mention it. They talk about how "the old movie was better."

@Elizafox it reads like one of those sketches by the YouTuber that mocks all the IT tropes
