Sometimes it's nice to be around people who don't take things so seriously. ;)

Don't worry about it. It's normal on CD. Outside of sketchbooks most sections are dead.

Yeah exactly, on the "serious" thing.  I find people who are too serious about getting ahead or better tend to be more insufferable, or insecure and rigid as people.  That said when you do meet people who are passionate and dedicated AND chill about their craft, it's an awesome thing to be around.
I find that life drawing classes are the best. Events like gallery shows are a bit awkward if you don't already know the people there. Life drawing has more of a purpose and a mingle vibe.

But on the insufferable part I think it also depends on your local community. Mine seems to be full of people who are overly defensive, have horrible figure art, love the tortured artist complex, and other various unpleasantries. They do the typical artist thing where they rent in horrible areas of town to save money and then complain that it's a bad area. But there are aspects of fine art I just don't vibe with too, like making casts of your nipples and selling them.
