Haha, the employee subreddit is always fun because people bitch about working there and then apes show up acting like their loving bosses because "they own the company." I think Ryan Cohen's cheap rear end decided to use stores as dropshipping locations or some poo poo like that and has them boxing and shipping product... but their inventory system sucks balls so the system says games are in-store when the store doesn't actually have them. I think some of the stores just send empty boxes instead of dealing with all that bullshit and just kick the problem to someone else.

I'm sure you're right, but on the off chance. Is she sure there's not a code for the games rather than physical disks in the boxes? Which would still be bad if she wanted physical disks obviously, but might help.

r/teddy is in full r/ThePPShow mode now, apparently they appointed PP as a mod and he just banned a bunch of people. They have convinced themselves that there is a countdown being broadcast to them through secret clues and they are pretty sure they are near the end of the countdown but there are disagreements about exactly where they are. Ryan Cohen put his foot in his mouth with a tweet showing that the Target app will autofill a search on 'People' with matches that include 'People Love Dead Jews', which is a book title. Apparently he either realized he was being an idiot or one of his lawyers told him, because he deleted the tweet soon afterward. But! He deleted at 2:22! Are we at 2 on the countdown???!?!? Someone sent a text with the name RC mentioning that they like pear flavored tea! Partridge in a PEAR tree! It's the first day of Christmas! Does that mean we are at 1 on the countdown???!?!?!?!?!?!???!???!!!!?!?!? Absolute batshit. They will be doing this forever.

It’s just the Plan administrator doing paperwork as far as I know. Tying up the loose ends ie, recovering small amounts of debt owed to bbby and paying that back to outstanding creditors could take years.

In the absence of any new information at all on BBBY (because there is literally nothing left to happen), the apes are transitioning from merely absorbing and distorting any information they can find to becoming junior investigators and generating the information themselves. People like the plan admin or whoever answers the contact us email address for Sixth Street put themselves in danger of becoming a target of this cult by merely responding to an inquiry, because literally nothing they say can convince the apes they aren't one gatekeeper away from their much deserved wife-changing money. It's been hilarious up to this point, but I fear that eventually some ape is going to show up to one of these people's office, personal residence, or their kid's school wanting answers and it's not going to be funny anymore.

Pulte is now pushing for organization of apes and pushing for legal action, to combat the ... well ... nobody can say for sure. But a lawyer will definitely get them their lambos! So I guess instead of burning a pile of money on the doorstep of a company mid-bankruptcy, they are going to burn a pile of money for billable hours to file forms to the court because they aren't rich yet.

Pulte is holding a meeting to talk about legal action with a bunch of bird-brained DD writers and no actual lawyers. Should be productive. I can't figure this guy out. Is he so stupid as to really think there are enough apes to help get him back on the board of Pulte Group? Or is he just a weirdo who likes attention?

My read on it is definitely that he hopes he can grift these marks and get a bunch of ape money, and if he can get them to do something for him like put him back on the board, so much the better

Unless he's secretly broke he doesn't need their money and they don't have that much to give. They spent it all on BBBY and GME stocks. I guess he suckered a few hundred of them to buy $500 tickets to hangout in an airplane hangar but I'm not sure he can just keep doing that (he probably can).

He's gotta have an ulterior motive. So the whole story with Pulte is that his grandfather founded one of the largest home building companies in the country, Pulte Group - PHM. Before he died, the grandfather was pissed at the board and CEO of PHM for moving the long time head quarters from Detroit to Atlanta, and for what he perceived as the poor performance of the company's stock compared to it's rivals. The Pulte family owned 10% of PHM and the grandfather started a proxy war with the board. The end result is that the CEO was forced to step down and our beloved Bill Pulte was installed on the board at the ripe old age of 26 years old - where it sounds like he was not very popular. Subsequently, the grandfather died, and apparently the family sold off much of his shares as Pulte ownership of PHM tumbled down to just 2%. When this happened little Bill was booted from the board - he says he "left". Bill then engaged in a fairly public battle with the new CEO accusing him of online harassment - at the behest of the former CEO. Apparently there was some fire to this smoke as PHM investigated the accusation and fired the new CEO. That brings us where we are today. Bill has been making noise about getting control of his family's company since he was booted. But he realistically stands no chance, even with the help of penniless apes. Is he hoping to just get revenge on PHM management by sicking apes on them for shits and giggles? Is he loving deranged and just loves to be the center of attention of a bunch of hopeless rubes? He doesn't really seem to stand to make any money from his engagement with the ape community. So what the gently caress is his angle????

Anything beyond that (like seeking legal assistance) sounds too much like work... and they want nothing to do with that.

I think we have to consider the possibility (probability?) that Pulte is in-fact just as stupid as the apes he is trying to control and has drank the FlavorAid as much as any of them. Being pre-rich due to circumstances of birth, he can assert himself as a leader since he has "succeeded" at the only thing apes care about.

Agreed; saying that Pulte has an ulterior motive is kind of falling into the same trap that the apes have, just on the other side of the street. People of all economic and educational statuses are just as prone to falling for snake oil scams as anyone else, and odds are Billy boy's found a scam to call his own (and to own him in return).

I still feel like what everybody's really found is a community to call their own. This one is based on incredibly bad fiscal decisions, but at the end of the day, it's no different than UFO enthusiasts or GBS shitposters. In my world view, Bill Pulte found some people to kiss his rear end, as is his perceived birthright.

The next phase of the Baggie Cinematic Universe is heating up! Kais hosted a Twitter Spaces call at the same time PP hosted his YouTube show tonight. Several months ago, PP had Kais register "theppshow" trademark for him, and all of us apewatchers knew things would go to poo poo. Well, it appears the schism has come. On the Spaces call, Kais threatened that once the trademark had gone through he planned to deliver a C&D to PP. Apes once again proving to be masters of the own goal.

Extremely unsurprising that the apes have found their saviour in a third-generation failson flailing in the vague direction of his perceived birthright with the expectation of receiving constant money and affirmation from the plebes. He's everything they see themselves as.
