I even read this aloud in my head as “CREATE ZE VUCKING FILE” in a particularly bad German accent same as over 20 years ago when a friend I worked for drilled it in my head.
I am almost 40, and have been a VP of Engineering at multiple silicon valley based tech companies. Still I have an uncle who I’m quite sure doesn’t trust me to touch any of his computers because in the 90s I definitely bricked more than a few of his PCs by fucking around and finding out.
Ah OK, I was born in Dayton, grew up in Kalamazoo, so that rings true to me. Best of luck to you in any case (as a multiracial weirdo I noped the fuck out of the Midwest long ago, but still have a sweet spot in my heart for Lake Michigan coast in the summer, skidding down sand dunes that make a weird squeaking sound)
