    *Valve laughs in Gabe Newell, owner of Valve and former employee of Microsoft.

    Motherfucker left Microsoft to focus on games. He spearheaded the move to Linux to protect their store from becoming blocked on Windows. He knows how Microsoft works, intimately.

    I’d be really surprised if Valve got sold to Microsoft while Newell still lives.

          Fat jokes aren’t funny.

          Except this one, and only because we’ve all been there.

            I sure hope so. But at his weight, people can start having heart problems fairly early. Then again it seems he’s lost some in recent years, so maybe he’ll get to see old age.

      got sold to Microsoft while Newell still lives.

      Surely you mean while he’s “Still Alive”, right?
