The logic of Slackware


"The logic of Slackware seems to be if the Slacker can Slack, he will Slack. That Slackers will not surrender until failure is academic. How is a Slacker to explain the sacrifice of so much for everything?" — Thomas "Slacker" Powers

Ha-ha! I retired 4 years ago; I was an elementary school teacher. Yes. The forum will settle when people head back to the salt mines.

I clicked it, but noscript blocked it, and seeing a 'newspaper' being completely empty without scripts made me not bother...
but you still got me later in a bout of idleness.

Just shows how evil inactivity really is.

Worse yet, I clicked on it and got a Rick Astley video from the 1980s.

See: Rickrolling

"I know what you're thinking. 'Did he fool six Slackers or only five'? Well to tell you the truth, in all this excitement, i kind of lost track myself. But being that this is Slackware64, the most powerful Linux distro in the world, and would grow your head with clean knowledge, you've got to ask yourself one question: 'Do I feel Slacky?' Well do ya, punk?"
