So I am over at my old apartment (moved out in december) visitng my old roommates when I decided that I would try to b0rg all of their systems. One of my roommates is extremely computer savvy and has 2 high-power boxen. Here was our exchange as I remember it:

Me: Dude, Nate...can I borg your systems?
Nate: Borg them?
Me: run folding@home on them under my name, with my team
Nate: Oh yeah, I used to run that on my systems awhile ago
Me: Oh really? which team did you fold for?
Nate: Overclockers.com

*long pause as I glare at him*

Nate: Why? who do you fold for?
Me: Hardforums.

*long pause as we glare at each other*

Me: you're not folding for them now are you?
Nate: No, it slipped my mind to reinstall the client when I reformatted my systems
Me: YOU FOLD FOR THE HORDE NOW!

This is where I will split the story.

Here is the real ending:

Nate: Sounds good to me, borg them in your name. I have no team loyalty.

Here is my John Woo ending:

Nate: but I like overclockers.com!
Me: You're dead to me!

*JustAGuy pulls out two Desert Eagles and begins firing at Nate as he jumps over a table and behind a full bar that somehow has sprung up out of nowhere in the middle of the kitchen*

*Meanwhile Nate unloads two Mac 10s while jumping over the couch*

*Nate is out of ammo, JustAGuy is not*

*JustAGuy stands over Nate, light gleaming off of the barrel of the desert eagle from the cheap ass fluorescent lights they put in our low rent apartment*

Me: You fold for the horde now!
Nate: Yes sir!

*Fade to Black*

Sorry I had to add violence to make the story truly interesting.

I borged 4 systems that fine day about a month back. :)

Lol :p

Good story but where were the chicks? C'mon, we all know chicks dig folders, why weren't they mentioned in the story?
 
Good story, I've had quite the number of mexican standoffs with people refusing to assimilate with the [H]orde....

I second that, since I started folding for the [H]orde women seem to be attracted to me, like I'm some kinda magnet and whatnot... :cool:

Spread the word...

-E :p
