    This is going to be a class action suit, and it’s going to put them out of business, which is good and proper in this context.

        It’s just so insane to me that c-suites are able to fail upwards after catastrophic failures like that.

        Naaahhhh, this isn’t JUST a greedy fuck who wandered in to muck and needs a haul out. This is a greedy fuck who got in the way of other greedy fucks stealing their bag.

        The other greedy fucks are at least going to make sure to draw a little blood.
