GENTOO is Rice

Gentoo is for Ricers

Welcome, this page is dedicated to the Linux Community's greatest ambassadors, Gentoo users. Like the annoying teenager next door with a 90hp import sporting a 6 foot tall bolt-on wing, Gentoo users are proof that society is best served by roving gangs of armed vigilantes, dishing out swift, cold justice with baseball bats to those fucking ricer bastards.

Please note, these quotes are real. We didn't bother to link to the original quotes because it's too much work and this page is mostly an amalgamation of different things found on the web. Besides, we all know people like this — if you spent 6 hours compiling X, you'd like to think it was for something useful, right? You can't make this stuff up, we're not kidding. People like this are real.

We've bolded things that are just so ludicrous that you need to sit down to read them. Pull up an eterm, run emerge --pretend world, and enjoy.
