Crypto always reminds me of Beavis & Butthead selling each other school fundraiser candy bars for the same $2. Not because the analogy fits crypto but due to the blissful lack of awareness fitting perfectly.

Another Bitcoin billboard went up near my neighborhood, this one states that Bitcoin has stable and predictable inflation.

Caught the website that is advertising it as well, bitcoin.guide

This feels like the volcano insurance guy from family guy.

We've had stable and predictable inflation for like 35 - 40 years.

The thing that's amusing about this is that coiners don't appear to be able to differentiate between cost-push and demand-pull inflation. It's just another number that goes up, but it's bad instead of good for this number to go up.

Has anyone in modern history thought out a Holocaust analogy to something that is not even tangentially related to genocide, written it down, looked at what they've written and thought "probably not a good idea to make this analogy"? Because I'm not sure this has ever happened

I think you're right. The simple act of making an analogy to the Holocaust for something that isn't the systematic destruction of a people or culture already presupposes ignorance about the atrocities of the Holocaust. As soon as any pressure at all is applied to the gas pedal, the bad idea is at full speed.

Yes, the "Jews" who absolutely exist, and probably live in Canada so you can't meet them, really feel the same way about financial reforms compared with genocide. Definitely.

Imagine having to label your youtube video "meme" because it's so transparently a shill.

Feb 14, 2005

Semantically, "you" is both singular and plural, though syntactically it is always plural. It always takes a verb form that originally marked the word as plural.

Also, there is no plural when the context is an argument with an individual rather than a group. Somfin shouldn't put words in my mouth.

It's got all a growing coiner needs: it's got memes, it's got anime, it's got third generation 4chan faces (so it isn't scary anymore). God damnit I love how I can clairvoyantly see far ahead enough to predict the bitcoin singularity and the fall of centuries of financial institutions but constantly serve as a cash cow for pump and dump scams.
