@John J: "I built a desktop computer without reading a manual or any previous experience."
Clever - but untrue.
You ASSEMBLED a bunch of pre-engineered, pre-manufactured, pre-tested computer components into a desktop computer (and don't even get me started about writing the BIOS code and burning that to a EPROM or compiling a boot loader from scratch, or drivers, or a OS, etc, etc.).
I'm sure all you commenter's that are complaining don't eat meat, or drink dairy, or eat eggs, or use cosmetics or take ANY type of medication whatsoever so that your conscious is clean.
Wow, I should probably say something noble and be a graceful winner, but who am I trying to kid - so gimme, gimme.

...nevermind, I'm over it, congrats to the winners and all that other good natured crap the losers (that's me) are supposed to say.
"Haggis, it's not just for breakfast anymore"
Sorry to see that a few points of IQ doesn't often over ride 2 million years of "breed then die" evolution for most of the planet.
Alas, it's not to be.
If I want a "viscous mouth feel" I'll wait until I have a bad cold and just inhale a gob of snot.
Plus for that type of money, you can get really good Scotch.
