I can recommend the “Behind the Bastards” (podcast) episode on Steve Jobs.
What a weird… weird man.I second this, great episode. He was indeed a very weird and smelly man.
This was the guy who, when told he had cancer, decided to self treat himself with smelling salts or some shit like that. Then when it didn’t work said, “Halp I need medicine”.
He also took a healthy liver and destroyed it. Someone on the transplant list probably died because they were behind him on the list, and he should have been disqualified for being noncompliant with medical advice.
IIRC he didn’t bath, he was stinking so much that when he worked at Atari he was moved to night shift because of his odor complaints.
He was adamant that he could control his nasty odor by diet instead of taking a goddamned shower.
He was as big of a piece of shit as he smelled.
To soak up the inspiration, duh.
Some say the inspiration to steal the GUI from Xerox was hatched on that infamous, piss soaked day
Passed him once on a stairway when he was super ill. Made me sad.
You should have let him beat you
But then he’d have to be behind that awful stench. I wouldn’t have let him win either…
What I mean is that we passed at the top of the stairs and I let him go down first.
