There's a scene in evangelion where the mc jerks it over an unconscious asuka (the character on the video card in the background) and nuts all over his hand.
He covered his hand in thermal paste as a reference.
It's a (intentionally) creepy scene and extremely off-color for a repair tech to send this to a customer, IMO. Good thing it's probably fake.
- With no context whatsoever my first thought was it was one of those "uh oh, if the thermal paste is on my hand, then that must mean I accidentally put the cum on my cpu..."
  I will be deleting this shortly I am sorry
  Edit: Most upvotes I've gotten on Lemmy. Listen to the guy below. Live your truth, lemmings.
  
  You made a good joke, dont let thine shame and cowardice control thee.
  
  Now that's funny

Welcome to puberty.
You're never piloting the robot version of your mother ever again.

It means that it’s a sexy GPU

It means he wasted 2 or 3 dollars worth of thermal paste. Possibly to make a weird Evangelion reference, based on that other comment.

What DOES it mean??
- I believe it’s a recreation of a scene from one of the endings of Evangelion. My hazy guess is the movie “End of Evangelion.” Asuka (on the GPU) lies unconscious in a hospital bed. Shinji (incel protagonist) stands over her. He shuts the door to the hall and breathes heavily for a few seconds, then this shot with white instead of gray.
  
  Hello? Yes, I'd like to have unread what I just read. Yes, I'll hold.
  
  Oh dear god...I thought you were joking.
  
  Lol wtf
  
  I would like to return one mental image please
  
  wtf I never saw evangelion, what the hell is going on in there? you said that's the ending?
  
  Wait
  That's What the fuck man what
  
  Chicken dinner right here boys. Gotta be it.
  
  incel protagonist
  god I hate you twitter zoomers
- It means he finished
  
  If that's what it looks like when he finishes, he needs to see a doctor.
- You don't want to know.
- The most unnecessary scene in anime

A very professional customer interaction for an Evangelion fan

It honestly took me a few seconds to get.
\ I'm ashamed it took me that long
\ I'm even more ashamed I got it at all
- But are you as ashamed as Shinji, is what I wonder. I can't believe I got the ref, though. I'm not even a fan of the show but that scene was so out of nowhere... I guess it did mark me.

It all returns to nothing

This just makes me sad ,because someone wasted thermal paste and wasted about 30-50 euros for a design on the back and a red color scheme.
- If they’re a repair tech, they have thermal paste in bulk. That was maybe $3 worth of paste. Probably much less.
  
  it looks like Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut which is just about the most expensive thermal paste you can get and I don't think you can get it in bulk
  
  I think they meant the design
  
  I know ,but still a waste and what repair technician would do this if someone left a review with this attached no one except evangelion fans would understand the reference others would think the guy was into objectophilia.
- "wasted" is completely relative. I would pay 30-50 euros for a cool design of a GPU.
  
  One you can't even see most of the time?

最低だ、俺って
- 気持ち悪い

This kills the man.

On a not really related note, having Asuka or Rei as a waifu is fucking weird as an adult right? They're like 14?
- Is it wrong to remember your first time if it happened when you were a kid? Same thing.
- is it the 40 year old man crushing on the character or is it the 15 year old boy inside the 40 year old still crushing?
  kinda big difference.
  
  Is it though?
  
  Is it the 50 year old teacher/coach/priest touching 15 year old boys, or is it the 15 year old boy inside the 50 year old just exploring his sexuality?

Honestly it looks like he squirted heat sink goo all over the place (you're supposed to put it between the cpu and heat sink to let the heat transfer more efficiently). Why he liberally applied it to his hand like jergens and sent you a pick i couldn't say. But I would wipe the machine down real well when you get it back 🤣
- It’s a reference to Asuka (the character on the GPU), and a very creepy scene near the end of the series. The main character jerks it over Asuka’s unconscious body, and we see his hand covered in white fluid (just like the thermal paste is covering the hand in this pic) afterwards.
  It’s a symbolic scene that is meant to turn the audience against the main character. Basically, he starts his journey with a very similar shot of his hand covered in blood. And the scene of him jerking it over an unconscious girl’s body is basically the end of his journey as a “good” guy. Evangelion is a very psychological show; The series is meant to turn a bunch of tropes on their heads, and it actively works against the “what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger” trope. It accepts that what doesn’t kill you probably leaves you traumatized. So by the end of the series, all of the characters who started out as heroes have ended up broken and hurting, and are basically treated like Vietnam veterans.
