Forget the iPhone 6 - it's all about Scarf Guy!
Daily Mail ^ | 9/9/14 | Taylor Lorenz

We meet the nattily-dressed gaming exec who stole the show at the Apple launch - and inspired a stream of online parodies Dutch gamer Tommy Krul appeared on stage wearing a purple knitted infinity scarf ... Colleagues said the scarf reflected his mindset of 'making something as beautiful and distinct as possible' He would not say if he is single

The iPhone 6 may have been the headliner, but gaming executive Tommy Krul stole the show at yesterday’s Apple event.

Dressed in a faded button down with a purple knit infinity scarf, he was brought on stage at the packed event to demo a game his company developed called Vainglory. ... All eyes quickly focused on Tommy.

‘Skip the phone, I want to know where this guy got that incredible scarf ensemble’ Twitter user ‘@RyanMaue posted. ... Shortly after moving to California, Tommy joined with a group of fellow gaming enthusiasts to found Super Evil Megacorp in 2012. The company’s first release is a sci-fi fantasy themed multiplayer online battle game named Vainglory.

It’s no surprise that Tommy himself is an avid gamer. He writes that his video game development company is ‘by gamers, for gamers’ and takes his work very seriously.

One photo he posted of his laptop propped up on a sunny table in San Francisco is captioned with the comment, ‘To be clear, as lovely as the weather was, and granted, out of view there may have been a mimosa, I was still working on a Sunday ;-p.’ ... Tommy himself told MailOnline that he has only just learned of his internet fame. ... 'I often wear scarves, it's funny.'

Yes. He did the OCS thing so I thought he needed to get all he could out of basic. I taught him about the Blue Falcon.

Would gay geeks wear a Klein scarf? It would probably cause them to mentally divide by zero.

Scarves are trendy. I hate them

When I see Islamics I see scarves.

I keep thinking that the west is being prepared to cover their heads for their masters.

I think Unknown Hinson says it best in his song titled:

"...An infinity scarf is simply one where the ends of the rectangular scarf are sewn together, making a loop instead of a rectangle...

So, like a Mobius Scarf?

That makes WAY less pansy now that I that. In fact, I now consider that person the second coming of The Duke.

I say "person" rather than "man" because I lack proof one way or another.
