A very professional customer interaction for an Evangelion fan

[–] PeriodicallyPedantic@lemmy.ca 31 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

It honestly took me a few seconds to get.
I'm ashamed it took me that long
I'm even more ashamed I got it at all

[–] fibojoly@sh.itjust.works 8 points 9 hours ago* (last edited 9 hours ago)

But are you as ashamed as Shinji, is what I wonder. I can't believe I got the ref, though. I'm not even a fan of the show but that scene was so out of nowhere... I guess it did mark me.

[–] doggle@lemmy.dbzer0.com 149 points 1 day ago (1 children)

There's a scene in evangelion where the mc jerks it over an unconscious asuka (the character on the video card in the background) and nuts all over his hand.

He covered his hand in thermal paste as a reference.

It's a (intentionally) creepy scene and extremely off-color for a repair tech to send this to a customer, IMO. Good thing it's probably fake.

[–] TheLoneMinon@lemm.ee 49 points 15 hours ago* (last edited 15 hours ago) (1 children)

With no context whatsoever my first thought was it was one of those "uh oh, if the thermal paste is on my hand, then that must mean I accidentally put the cum on my cpu..."

I will be deleting this shortly I am sorry

[–] vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.works 18 points 10 hours ago

You made a good joke, dont let thine shame and cowardice control thee.

[–] Manzas@lemdro.id 22 points 23 hours ago (2 children)

This just makes me sad ,because someone wasted thermal paste and wasted about 30-50 euros for a design on the back and a red color scheme.

[–] PM_Your_Nudes_Please@lemmy.world 32 points 21 hours ago (3 children)

If they’re a repair tech, they have thermal paste in bulk. That was maybe $3 worth of paste. Probably much less.

[–] Manzas@lemdro.id 1 points 10 hours ago

I know ,but still a waste and what repair technician would do this if someone left a review with this attached no one except evangelion fans would understand the reference others would think the guy was I to objectophilia.

[–] dditty@lemm.ee 11 points 17 hours ago (2 children)

it looks like Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut which is just about the most expensive thermal paste you can get and I don't think you can get it in bulk

[–] NosferatuZodd@lemmy.world 11 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

it looks like any other grey thermal paste I've ever seen, what exactly made you think it's this specific expensive paste?

[–] OrnateLuna@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 5 hours ago

Well there is a tube of that thermal paste in the background

[–] autriyo@feddit.org 3 points 10 hours ago

The tube in the background is probably for the real repaste...

[–] tomi000@lemmy.world 7 points 21 hours ago

I think they meant the design

[–] calcopiritus@lemmy.world 6 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

"wasted" is completely relative. I would pay 30-50 euros for a cool design of a GPU.

[–] Manzas@lemdro.id 1 points 9 hours ago

One you can't even see most of the time?

[–] RizzRustbolt@lemmy.world 122 points 1 day ago

Welcome to puberty.

You're never piloting the robot version of your mother ever again.

[–] Bishma@discuss.tchncs.de 48 points 1 day ago

It means he wasted 2 or 3 dollars worth of thermal paste. Possibly to make a weird Evangelion reference, based on that other comment.

[–] yesmeisyes@sopuli.xyz 53 points 1 day ago

It means that it’s a sexy GPU

[–] ryan213@lemmy.ca 46 points 1 day ago (4 children)
[–] AdamBomb@lemmy.sdf.org 123 points 1 day ago (26 children)

I believe it’s a recreation of a scene from one of the endings of Evangelion. My hazy guess is the movie “End of Evangelion.” Asuka (on the GPU) lies unconscious in a hospital bed. Shinji (incel protagonist) stands over her. He shuts the door to the hall and breathes heavily for a few seconds, then this shot with white instead of gray.

[–] Stamau123@lemmy.world 4 points 5 hours ago (2 children)

wtf I never saw evangelion, what the hell is going on in there? you said that's the ending?

[–] AdamBomb@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 1 hour ago

During one of the ending episodes (there were two or three different ones) but not the final scene in any of them

[–] Fontasia@feddit.nl 6 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Evangelion is one of those anime where the author starts shitting on the fans towards the end because the 15 year old males in the audience see themselves in Shinichi. Those same fans started sending him death threats when the end of the main show points out he is not a good person, and the harem that wants to sleep with him actually don't want to sleep with him because he's going to save the world but because they require therapy.

[–] AdamBomb@lemmy.sdf.org 4 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 1 hour ago)

It’s been a long, long time, but I don’t recall having the impression that any of the so-called harem actually desired him at all. Rei was apathetic toward everything, I don’t recall Asuka showing anything but competitiveness, disdain, and occasional grudging respect, and Misato treated him like a kid brother. And yeah everyone needed therapy!

Oh dear god...I thought you were joking.

Hello? Yes, I'd like to have unread what I just read. Yes, I'll hold.

[–] ghen@sh.itjust.works 22 points 1 day ago

The overall story about why the author did it is interesting, because it is part of his ongoing hatred of how the fans treat the property.
