I would gladly do this, but only if I can make it ESPECIALLY gay.

"I shifted from a gentle RAM boot to a forceful sudo bbqinstaller, deeply thrusting my thick new file structure deep into the soft backside of the ext4 partition. The hard, hard disk spinning wildly under my dominant new / partition."

50 shades of BBQ? Count me in.

^^ :D oh dear, I'm laughing my mouth off.

That said, not only that guy missed our philosophy, he also uses two exclamation marks in one sentence. That's enough for me.

Hmmm, bullet-point review, interesting. And by "interesting," I mean, what a fucktard. Whatever.

And that's some damn funny shit, Joe. :D

That Gilesorr dude is the best entertainment I've had in years. One gem from ElementaryOS 'review':
"apt-get update" inspires a MASSIVE (34.7 MB - never seen anything like it before) round of downloading

^^ He should have written it in Bytes to make it sound more insane.
I would have done it like this, so it wouldn't cause "panic" for the "ElementaryOS customers" 0.000037 PetaByte upgrade <------------- sorry couldn't help myself.

This guy is a riot. I have to guess that he is being facetious, but at the same time I could see my noob self making some of these same comments if I wasn't careful :D

I love it when people get bent by the release names. It means they won't come here and annoy us.
