Yeah, I don’t recall ever reading a Tim Sweeney quote and thinking, “that sounds about right.”

I don’t think he’s able to afford to kiss the ring, otherwise he would.

Why wouldn’t he be? Sweeney is a billionaire, richer than Tim Cook even.

Eh he once gave me an all you can drink pass at the after party for a gaming convention in Melbourne.

So the quote is ‘get whatever you want, drinks are on me tonight’.

Its still a complete mystery how I made it back to my hotel with no map, no local knowledge and on foot.
