Sydney Bottocks posted:If there's anything the last decade or so should have taught us, it's that there are few if any arguments that morons can be refuted by, so you're better off just telling them to get bent because that's clear and concise language they can definitely understand What I'm trying to say is, if you tell them you think it's a scam, you're just inviting them to try and prove to you that it's not. If you just say "I'm not interested right now for personal reasons that I'd rather not discuss," there's no refuting that. Just kill the conversation.

I assume that this means FTX is first.

The latter is absolutely refutable in the MLMer's mind - they just need to get you to crack and tell them what the personal reason is, and they can work in their sales pitch as a solution to that problem, they'll never leave you alone about it. "This is a scam" tells them to move on to a target who is less skeptical.

I assume that this means FTX is first. also it is blockfi saying the revolver is "intended to" be subordinate to things is pretty irrelevant because when that issue gets litigated, no court will care they said that if FTX made the misleading statement perhaps you could effectively bind FTX to it notwithstanding the documents (though it would be an uphill battle)

After he told the neighbor it was a scam and he had no interest, he got a neighborly "gently caress you", but we never heard from him again about his vitamagic nonsense.

When someone is proselytizing, whether it's about religion or politics or buttcoins, anything other than words to the effect of "get the gently caress away from me with this bullshit" will only be viewed as an opportunity to double down.

This happened to me when I tried to get my friend to eat more fiber. I got ghosted for a while because I kept talking about beans. I guess she is anti-massive-shits. Her loss.

Wayback posted:by all accounts it seems like it will probably be less about 'securing a gift for you and your family' than them getting referral bonuses for signing more people up. This is the thing that pisses me off the most. These jerkoffs try to pretend they’re being helpful and altruistic, when it’s just them trying to enrich themselves off your involvement. These are legitimately poo poo people.

Okay just off the top of my head here is a random list of terms that I’ve encountered exclusively or primarily through the world of crypto. FUD. Hodl. Strong hand weak hand paper hand etc. Moon. Rugpull. Defi. Nocoiner. I’m sure there’s a bunch that have come out with the advent of NFTs. I’m assuming NFTs aren’t all priced at millions of dollars and there’s a range down to cheaper ones, but is the whole point of stuff like twenty million dollar ape NFTs to swing your big crypto dick around and show that you’re one of the players that made so much in crypto that you can afford to blow millions on an ape jpg, that you’re in the club?

The new $TWINKcoin is a play on the current cryptocurrency frenzy and features coin-shaped cakes. They had to know right, seriously, how did this make it past a committee?

Piggy Smalls posted:In any event my neighbor called me excited that the coins went up to 70 something cents from 30 something cents. She told me that the exchange will occur June 30th and because my kids are minors they need to fill out a KYC form before the 30th. I need to provide my ID and other information that I honestly didn’t sign up to give. I never wanted this poo poo but I know there will be bad blood if I decline their help. At one point my neighbor had told me that he felt bad that I didn’t trust him so this situation will likely put him over the edge. What should I do? also, just to put this into record on the postchain: google takes me to nugencoin.org, which advertises you can stake your nuge coins and "receive 0.35% per day", which, if I'm doing my math right, works out an an APY of roughly 256% assuming you actually receive that each day and can compound it. So, uh, lol at anyone who does not think that "256% APY!!!1" is not prima facie evidence of a scam

chaosbreather posted:if he's buying the shitcoins for you as a gift, he's the C that they have to K in KYC. so he's definitely trying to scam you. if he's asking you to trust him more and is upset that you aren't trusting him more, that's definitely confirmation. just say no to everything, even very innocuous things like taking in packages, and make sure any guests or family members are clued in. he's dumb enough that he's probably going to get caught soon if he's had any success so you want to avoid providing him any freedom liquidity, if you catch my drift. Exactly. Don't give him any of your piss or sperm.

"Man, can't believe she fit a whole lasagne up her fud, what a night." or "Look at this pure fud, spending all his money on crypto."
