    “OMG, this installer is crap” said my teenage niece. She tried the KDE version and said it was fast. Her idea of fast is how long it takes for handbrake to copy True Blue or Twilight. Kids!!

    A play on a funny rap song a few years ago.

    I was gonna bitch about Fedora18’s installer…
    but then I got high.
    I was gonna rip the GNOME folks a new one…
    but then I got high.
    My laptop is now a brick, and I know why…
    because I got high, because I got high, because I got high.

    I was gonna add RPM Fusion….
    but then I got high.
    Was adding “xkbset -a” to xinit…
    but then I got high.
    Quakelive gets only 60fps, and I know why…
    because I got high, because I got high, because I got high.
