Because I totally wasn't expecting to meet him at only my second PDX Prime and I said his name completely wrong lol.

As I was talking to some of the Asus guys and system builders at the Intel booth, he litterly jumped into the conversation and I kinda looked and blinked at him a few times and then I was like with an open mouth:

"Hey, I know that voice, your that hyper "Leenus" guy aren't ya?! "

LOL, sorry Linus. :P And how does one man have so much energy to move around like a 2 year old on speed?

Nvidia is to Dr Dre Beets as AMD is to KFC.

One makes you broke, the other you can get more of and have a midnight snack from the fridge when hungry again. Once you go Nvidia, you go broked, turn into an Elitist, or get the incorrect amount of VRAM.

 I was only 9 years old. I loved Fifflaren so much, I had all the NiP merchandise and matches pirated. I prayed to Fifflaren every night before bed. Thanking him for the life I have been given. Fifflaren is love I say. Fifflaren is life. My dad hears and calls me a fuckhead. I knew he was just jelly of my passion for Fifflaren. I called him a Sw@yer. He hits me and sends me to go to sleep. I'm crying now, and my face hurts. I lay in bed and it's really cold. A warmth is moving towards me. I feel someone touching me. I feel someone touching me. It's Fifflaren. I am so happy. He whispers in my ear; "this is my pyjama". He grabs me with his powerful Swedish hands and puts me on my hands and knees. I'm ready. I spread my ass cheeks for Fifflaren. He penetrates my butt-hole. It hurts so much but I do it for Fifflaren. I can feel my butt tearing as my eyes start to water. I push against his force. I want to please Fifflaren. He roars a viking roar as he fills my butt with his love. My dad walks in. Fifflaren looks straight into his eyes and says; "He is a ninja now". Fifflaren is love, Fifflaren is life

If I were to meet Linus... He might kick me for not shutting up. And for realizing I'm this "tmcclelland455" guy on the forums that fairly often kicks up a shitstorm in some threads.

Not even remote a photobomb

 

What... That was really you wasn't it?

The single biggest problem in communication is the illusion that it has taken place.
