The Launch Party

[Thorin]

This is a blog entry with a bit of Windows 7 Launch Party fan fiction.  It's funny, sad, and eye-opening all at the same time: http://www.istartedsomething.com/20121202/nostalgic-windows-7-launch-party-fan-fiction/

...I'm having trouble parsing this, what?

Okay, quick look at the link:

Way back when, Microsoft released a cringe-worthy video about hosting Win7 launch parties.

Some Reddit guy wrote a fan fiction about the characters in said video.

TL;DR version: funny fan fiction based on unintentionally funny corporate promotion video

Nice summation, sorry I wasn't clearer.

That could've been any one of us, by the way, hosting the Launch Party Where No One Showed.

'twere the fan fiction from the Reddit guy that really caught my attention, though, not so much the cringe-worthy MS video.
