Jared:
So, um, can you kinda catch me up on what you see as your role in the company? What do you do?

Gilfoyle:
What do I do? System architecture, networking and security. No one in this house can touch me on that.

Jared:

Gilfoyle:

Jared:

Gilfoyle:
I prevent cross-site scripting. I monitor for DDoS attacks, emergency database rollbacks, and faulty transaction handlings. The Internet - heard of it? - transfers half a petabyte of data minute; do you have any idea how that happens? All those YouPorn ones and zeroes streaming directly to your shitty little smartphone day after day, every dipshit who shits his pants if he can't get the new dubstep Skrillex remix in under twelve seconds?

Gilfoyle:
