Amazon customer buys RTX 5090, receives rice, pasta, and mystery GPU instead

That's more than I got 4 weeks ago I order a whole system and included was a Gigabyte 5070 from Newegg and it came with nothing in the box but foam and when I put in a request for replacement they pretty much said I was a liar and stole it myself and are now refusing to answer my emails and calls.

When you say, "I keep seeing people make this reference", is that about you specifically, just a generalization, or perhaps the largess accompanying an unsolicited life lesson?

Speaking strictly for myself, I've always wanted to grow up to be a pompous, condescending, guidance counselor. Would you approve of such a lofty aspiration?

Try reading it again, I'm sure you'll figure it out. Probably not.

Once was more than enough, sorry. Por vous....

As for, "loftier goals and aspirations", if I want t know who's going bring about, "world piece", or "end world hunger", all I have to do is watch the "Miss America Pageant". Who knows, maybe the 2nd runner up will dial back her ambitions, and find this poor guy's 5090. At the very least she should cook him dinner.
