rho's Journal: Roblimo is unfunny

Gods, is Roblimo unfunny.

Okay, so he stopped using Windows in 1998. Fine. I know he thinks that makes him a "rebel" and an "iconoclast", or whatever rock-star quality he thinks lives in a OS CD--but really, it just makes him a tool. After all, Macintosh users have been Windows-free since 1984. Welcome to the party, Mr. Limo! And then he writes an entire article about "coming back" to Windows.

Not only did he stop using Windows in 1998, he froze his sense of humor right about that time as well.

Tedious jabs at Micro$oft or Bill Gate$, or how clunky Windows is--well, it's played. Played like a Barry White album at a 40-year-old bachelor's pad. Leaving aside the factual and/or stupid errors in the article, the rest reads like a Freshman level creative writing exercise. Ooh, Mr. Limo, your stunning use of satire, she is so witty! What's that you say? Windows isn't like SuSE? LoLz!!!!!1

Eat a dick. Using Linux doesn't make you better, it doesn't make you smarter, and it certainly doesn't help you to pick up the chicks. Hey, guess what--I haven't used Linux since 1999! I've been pure BSD and Macintosh, ever since my RedHat box was rooted through the (default installed) wuftpd. oH mY gOd LiNuKs Is TeH sUcK!!!!!!111 Can I get a "hell yeah" from the boyz down wit the daemon and those fine, fine BSD bitches!

Nothing is quite so annoying as the back-patting that mid-level Linux nerds do to themselves. Higher geeks can specifically point to reasons why a Free unix serves their needs. It's choirboys and fucktards who hang out at the Linux section of CompUSA, hoping passersby will notice how l33t they are that think an operating system will change the fact that they're dateless and lonely at 30.

Bah. Back to your cave, troll. If this is what OSDN pays Roblimo for, I'd like to apply for the position of Official Curmudgeon. I can probably get a thousand responses an hour from pale, friendless virgins who huddle around their Gentoo box like it's a pocket pussy, just by airing the truth: if you judge yourself or anyone else by the OS they use, then you're a slaptarded spockhole who should be phased out with a woodchipper. Calling Mr. Limo!

Ouch.

That was crass, angry, and generally unnecessary.

Thus proving *why* you've been on my friends list all this time.

I've dealt with wu-ftpd exploits, general Redhat stupidity, and the basic problem of Linux being a complete fucking wasteland.

Then I go hug my FreeBSD box, or my Powerbook.

It's not that it's impossible to make stuff work, it's just that it's tough to do it *right.* The mid-level Linux crowd likes to think that they're right no matter what, and they really aren't. Linux has its place in cert

Yeah

That article is pretty lame. The whole feigning ignorance of Windows stuff thing is annoying.

One program that does come with Windows XP Pro is a Web browser called 'Microsoft Internet Explorer.'

Really? Really? I've never heard of this "Microsoft Internet Explorer" before!

Blah.

Good call. Roblimo's only redeeming factor is that when goes on Tech TV and shows the Windows lusers some Linux stuff.
