But there's another side to OpenBSD most geeks don't realize, I'll relate my experiences here.

Many years around the early 2.x releases I read until my eyes were bleeding about OpenBSD. The ferocity towards 'noob' questions on the lists was legendary, even back then. I bought a copy of the CDs and installed it a Pentium I had.

The next morning when I woke up I felt something odd around my nether-regions.

My penis had grown at least 10 cm (4") overnight, and that was just in girth. I was hung like a stallion.

Staggering to the bathroom for a shower I saw in the mirror that my facial features looked more chiselled, for lack of a better word. My jaw was prominent. Then I realized I lost all my geek belly fat.

I hadn't looked that good since I was 20.

Hoping into the shower I was lathering up and I smelled mint coming from somewhere. Wasn't the soap, wasn't the shampoo. What the hell? I realized then that the smell was coming from under my nose.

OpenBSD even made my breath minty fresh. Permanently. I threw away my toothbrush several days later.

I don't need to tell you about what happened with my Holmesian nether-regions but a few hints: peanut butter, latex gloves, cloven hooves.
