I thought that was a crazy weird post... Then I realized it was from somebody I know! I hung out with Sam at Startup School 2007, and he did not rape me. And his college friends were cool and regular posters here, so I assume the same again. If I was in California, I would let Sam stay over, why not you? Thanks. We even stopped by Adam Smith's place, where Drew Houston was also... and look where they are now with Xobni and DropBox! Five stars, recommended. (Sam didn't ask me to post this, I just saw this.) By the way, what type of startup is this? Good luck!

  Whoa, whoa... Let's not jump to conclusions. But seriously, Sam is a great guy. Someone please lend him a couch and a roof!

  I wrote it because it made me laugh, every single time I read my testimonial.

  May be he was complaining.

> he did not rape me Maybe he only rapes people of the opposite sex? Damn him for being so selective!

Actually, Sam and Vlad both stayed at my apartment that year for Startup School. Neither of them tried to rape me either.

    The only problem your startup will face is that the couchsurfing types don't want to actually pay anything. Otherwise, this is a neat idea for a startup.

How do we know he is not beside you right now forcing you to write this, with his penis out?

I'll second this post in that Sam (and his friend) are really great guys (and yes, they won't rape you). If I had a couch, or a place for that matter, I'd let you guys crash. Maybe we can just get coffee instead :)
