Invalid opinion. There's still time to delete this.

the problem might be more complex than "lazy, ignorant people."

Yes, some of them are stupid and belligerent in their stupidity.

Remind me again what Russia did with your country the instant it got the chance?

Let me guess. Dumped by an art girl and anxious about the $600 you invested?

If the general bulk of appreciable-quantity tech investors suddenly found out in granular detail what is actually being done with their money as opposed to what they were told, it would probably cause the biggest crash since the Great Depression.

Good, maybe the people who do it will be shamed into shaping up or shipping out.

Are we not even going to consider the possibility that his children may have had bad vibes / been unpleasant to be around??

Yes, because it perpetuates demand.

I guarantee you at least 75% of the histrionics are coming from astroturfing competitors.

Sharknado isn't fun. Being a bad movie on purpose is just cringeworthy. Bad movies are fun when they're a serious (delusional) effort that failed miserably.

Baked beans are very popular in America, but they're different. We have a sweet tooth, as evidenced by the fact that marmalade is very sweet here. Our baked beans are usually flavored with brown sugar, molasses, or maple syrup; spices like cayenne pepper, ground mustard seed, or tomato paste; and frequently with ham or bacon as well. They're usually navy beans, though some people prefer pinto beans or black beans. Baked beans are served as a side dish at lunch or supper, and lots of people like to have cornbread or rolls/baps when there are beans so they can soak up the sauce, which is regionally called "pot liquor".

Heinz beans are something you can only get in the British section of the "World Foods" aisle in grocery stores, and they're not popular here. Partly because people only stop at that section to buy all the Jaffa Cakes and Yorkie bars before I can, and partly because as near as I can tell Heinz beans are flavored using the same principle as homeopathy, diluting one drop of tomato sauce into a gallon of water and repeating the dilution 50 times before adding 1 ml of it to the beans.
