2014 bump. I just cut and pasted the OP's joke into Word using an 11 point font and it was 24 pages long, lol.
I've forgotten most of the joke....might be time to read again.
I gave up after two paragraphs...
Holy crap yes.
Don't. Read it for your 1 year anandtech birthday or something.I gave up after two paragraphs...
True story but this thread is the reason I found these forums not too long ago. I on a bored day used Google to search for "Best thread on the internet". I was not disappointed by the result.
I mostly read the reviews by Anandtech before then, but never really bothered to go further than that, much like how I visit Guru 3D's website just for the reviews.
It was around '08 or '09 when I finally sat down and read the whole thing. Totally worth it.
I think it's what an old friend of mine (who introduced me to the genre and the term) called a shaggy dog story. Of course, he told me a very long one to illustrate. :whiste:a bit too long for a joke eh?
Live by the sword, die by the Ford.What a sad story
Poor nate didn't get to die by the sword.
Hardly the best joke ever..maybe the longest most boring joke....
This whole thread should be euthanized and put to sleep!!

Read it again. You obviously missed something.
Have you ever read YediJodas "jokes"?
He's not exactly the best judge of what's amusing.
