The cycle continues:

Hey you guys can have everything for free
WTF this is expensive to provide, I think I’m gonna start taking advantage of you guys which someone will pay me to do
WTF where’s everyone going
WTF I’m still losing money and always have been
Screw you guys, screw everybody, I didn’t want y’all anyway
(fades into irrelevance, gets bought by someone and stripped for parts)
