I met Job the Gamequitter

Post by Kozak »

I met him at a party of our faculty (we're both in the math, physics and life science department at our university). It was the first time I met someone from the internet....it was an interesting experience :) .

I met my girlfriend in real life, which I met on the internet first...

Though I can imagine that it was a really scary thing to meet the jobean-scrolling inventor :roll:

I hope you didn't linked your calcs on that party

I got Duck on the phone once, when my dad called the helpdesk of our ISP :) But I already knew that he lives a few kilometres away from my parents, so it wasn't that much of a shock ;)

Shadow Pheonix can you stop doing that? It bothers me and it also bothers Kevin.

Also Kevin said he already tried to learn ASM but found it too complex. If he was willing to try again he would probably use asm in 28 days like he did before.

It's really bothering Kevin?? :shock:

It's just when somebody has such great talents but is limiting himself. Sigh I won't say anything more.

Personally, I wouldn't go to a calc-con. I would be sad to find out that I'm the biggest nerd there. :roll:

Sorry Jim, couldn't help myself...I think it would be interesting as hell to see some of you guys...especially Unknown and Tr1p...

I would be interested, in going to one, but hell you think my parents are gonna let me leave for a gathering of the nerds in Utah, or some random place...? :wink:

edit: can somebody say roadtrip? :twisted:

Well I'm only 6"4' in the morning, at night I'm 6"1'. Weird, but true. 8)


Yeah for some reason when I think tr1p I think his desolate avatar. I guess thats not what he looks like. Hmmm... what would an aussie programmer look like, I picture him fighting off cane toads with his keyboard. :P

Road tr1p to Australia :D
