I met Alexis in Thailand. I approached him not knowing who he was because he had a Reddit t-shirt so I assumed it would be cool to chat with him. We didn't chat very long but he sent me a Reddit bobblehead when he arrived back from his trip. He's an unpretentious all-round nice guy.
Whoa, I remember you! I rarely get approached while wearing a reddit shirt; leave it to a random encounter in Thailand for me to finally meet a redditor excited about our site.
What you didn't see was that I was actually "backpacking" around the country in a gold-plated helicopter.
