A Word From Our Sponsor


And now for something completely different.

In honor of his recent retirement


[Music starts]

Bud Light presents… Real Men of Genius.

(’80s singer guy: Real Men of Genius)

Today we salute you, Mister Control-Alt-Delete creator.

(Guy: Mister Control-Alt-Delete creator!)

When we’ve been working for hours, and suddenly the screen turns blue, that’s when you shine.

(Chorus: I can’t believe it!)

Computer users all over the world swear by you… literally.

(Guy: I hate that guy!)

But in the end, they all know that without you, when their computer froze up, well, then they’d have to do actual work, instead of getting right back to surfing porn.

(Chorus: Gimme that porn)

So crack open an ice cold Bud Light, Mr. Control-Alt-Delete Inventor. And if the cash register locks up trying to check you out… well, you know what to do.

(Guy: Mr. Control-Alt-Delete In-ve-e-e-en-toooor)

Anheuser Busch, Redmond, Washington.

  2. What is this blue screen you speak of? You use ctrl-alt-delete to log into windows. Windows would never crash…

  5. Truly inspiring.

    “Computer users all over the world swear by you… literally.” - Amen to that!

    And Mike is right about the keeping the computer secure with the combo. Oh how we shall miss him. Sure, and Mike too.

  6. And “Gates didn’t laugh.” C’mon, it was funny! At least I think so, and at least seven other people did, too.
