I saw Gabe Newell at a grocery store in Seattle one time. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything.
He said, “Oh, kind of like you’re doing now?”
I was taken aback by this, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen king-size Three Musketeers bars in his hands without paying.
The girl at the counter was very nice about it and real professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter.
When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any electrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each one and put them in bags and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.
Mega64 encountered gabe newell and successfully asked him to participate in their Beatles video, so personally complaining to him in person about abuse of customers by extremist staff members to gauge the level of corruption is nothing special.
This is a baaaaaaaaaad idea, and you shouldn't be posting this here.
what is wrong with asking someone to go talk to someone or to go an arrange a protest via this site?
For a while, I believed that you are a glowie. Until you started behaving yourself for a while. Now, I'm not so sure again.

Put yourself in Gabe's shoes and imagine some random asshole dong this to you... How would YOU respond?
