It makes me sad because they act like a god damn cult with their memes and rhetoric. They keep huffing copium and saying the stock will definitely go to the moon this time. It's illogical. It's just gambling at this point among hardcore GME redditors. I haven't looked at the reddit in at least a year, so idk what it's like now.

Makes me sad to see people fixating on some financial event from the Covid era, and deluding themselves into thinking this retail stock is gonna make them rich with no effort.

Why does it make me sad? It's the same feeling as when I see old people spending their retirement in a casino, feeding a slot machine.

What media? What talking points? I was there when it went down, I bought the stock, my opinion is my own. They hold the stock due to a sunk cost fallacy. There's bound to be a little bit more nuance for some people but in my opinion it is a waste of time.

They're probably not worried because they don't live in the US.

It's just so sad that some people are still hanging on to the GME bullshit after so long. Their ego doesn't allow them to acknowledge that they made a bad choice, and got fucked.

So instead of just walking away, they dive deeper and deeper into this echo chamber, insisting you'll make millions off some shitty retail stock just because a few people got lucky almost 4 years ago.

Do you even have the ability to think in a straight line? What is this even supposed to mean? You write like someone with dementia

Yes you admitted your mistake. And yes you still acted a bit foolish. That's not a false accusation, it's just an accusation.

(THIS is an example of an opinion)

Can you just take a second to reflect on how inelegantly you have taken being wrong? You made an incorrect assertion of a fact, just accept you made a mistake and move on. Being stubborn and defensive makes you look kind of immature.

Hope you can take this advice

Honestly this is one of my favorite shows ever, I think my grandma introduced it to me one day when she visited. Peter falk is just so charming. I should really watch it again if I can find it

For a while I would watch an episode before bed until I had seen everything. There's no way to really reboot Columbo, but some spiritual successor could be good.

There are some people who have mental health issues. Some people with mood disorders. Some people are neurodivergent.

And some people are just fucking psychotic. You're not better than others because you use a more tactful word
