I've been wanting to attend this for a couple years but it's always on Wednesday and I usually have to work.
So anyway, here it is Wednesday morning I take a seat in the 2nd row and wait for the rest to show. Right in front of me sits a guy that I should recognize but drawing a blank on the name. At our first break he turns around, asks my name and we both instatly realize who we are talking to. The conversation went something like this:
Eric: I've had a few run-in's with you on theinternet.
Me: You've had a run in with everyone on the internet.
Eric: You going to tell Battle Tested you met me?
Me: If it comes up.
Eric: Now that you met me what do you think?
Me: Blank stare.
Eric: Don't tell the BT guys my last name, I think they want to break in my house and steal my stuff.
Me: I wont. Don't worry. The BT guys are not like that anyway.
That pretty much ended the conversation. I can say a few things for sure. He's not that bad of a dude, he just has no social graces at all. He's a bit paranoid. He make a lot of assumptions about things and usually get them wrong, not because he's stupid but because he over-complicates everything. He was they guy in class that asks all the wrong questions at the wrong times. If I had to guess, his parents beat him more than talking to him while he grew up....
