Bill Gates' wicked sense of humor really shines on Reddit - see for yourself
In 2013, Bill Gates held his first Reddit AMA. For his first time out, it was a pretty stripped-down affair, showing off a drawing of himself in the style of "Snoo," Reddit's mascot.
Things picked up a little bit in 2014, when he one-upped himself by meeting Snoo in person.
That AMA was also way more popular, prompting Gates to post a meme of himself as Austin Powers, which there's an explanation for, I swear.
Once upon a time, Bill Gates and then-Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer performed as Austin Powers and Dr. Evil, respectively, in a video for Microsoft employees. It's good to know that Gates can laugh at himself.
And at the end of the AMA, Gates and Snoo walked off into the sunset together after becoming best friends.
In 2015, things got a little more animated.
And Snoo showed back up to thank everybody for coming.
In 2016, Gates went a different route and recreated his 1973 high school yearbook photo, right down to finding the right sneakers.
And to sign off, Gates proved he's a man who's worn many hats in his career:
Which brings us to 2017, when Bill Gates revived David S. Pumpkins, Tom Hanks' breakout "Saturday Night Live" character...
...and complemented it with a video, cut with SNL footage. It's weird and great.
Here's the original SNL sketch, so you can compare.
On a final note, Gates' 2016 AMA also included a video he made answering some common questions he gets. It's worth a watch for a quick look into the mind of Bill Gates.
