    Bio

    I am a technology enthusiast who is easily amused and mostly harmless.

    Hello! A little explanation about the my forum title.

    The “Brute Squad” part is from the Greatest Movie of All Time™ titled The Princess Bride. There’s a well meaning character named Fezzik who tells people “I’m on the Brute Squad”. I used to reference that movie all the time and another moderator gave me that title.

    Please don’t read into the brute part, it’s in jest and I am really, truly mostly harmless.

    And yes “Please Get Off Your Petty Power Trip” would make a great title for a Cure tribute band.
