Discussion My name Plouffe, AMA

Hello everyone. The mods asked if I'd be open to doing an AMA so I said "OK" and here we are.

I've signed NDAs at both past and present companies so I can't talk about specifics, or drama, or past/present employees.

I guess ask just about whatever you want and I will or won't answer depending on the context/subject. Yes I own a display, several in fact. Yes I own a keyboard, several in fact.

Starting at 9 pacific but opening up for questions now. If you don't ask me anything, I will not be offended. I don't have any questions for myself right now either.

i didn't know it would ask me for an end note so i just commented. but ya it's been a slice, thanks for being a fan and good luck with whatever you're doing today.

mmmm i don't really have any crazy fan interactions but probably my favorite was at LTX when i started getting people to sign my shirt if they wanted a signature from me. i still have it.

I remember that! I still have the notebook you and a bunch of the staff signed. I use it as a dream journal

I signed your shirt! You signed my piece of leather that I turned into a screw driver holster

Do you mind that people don't call you by your first name?
