    Again I 100% agree however…

    The dude who saw it at $7 and said it was gonna pop, doubled down after $400 and still believes it’ll pop again.

    He knew the first time, he’s smarter than me, he didn’t sell. I am still in the green by like more than double where I was at the start. I’m gonna continue with my gut and believe this dude knows something I don’t because so far he hasn’t made me think otherwise.

    Everything else literally anything else besides what I said in this post is noise to me you know?

    But that’s not what we’re talking about. GameStop’s success has nothing to do with what I’m waiting for. The stock isn’t up because GameStop is a good company. In fact the opposite

    Watch the Big Short easiest way to really explain. The stock was worth $7 then $400 then stock split. If the split never happened the stock would be worth $100 and that isn’t because of the fundamental regular stock reasons it’s because the dying company didn’t die and now their valuation is fucked up.

    Disagree with that. The company is dumb and Cohen failed in trying to make something out of it don’t really care about that but I do have GameStop stock from the GME shitshow and there’s no bags anywhere at least for most of us.

    If the stock split never happened the stock would be worth $100 a share right now. Obviously something is wrong with that value estimation because it’s definitely not worth that much.

    I really just threw in my covid check but what really made me think it’s still worth is the original guy who saw value when the stock was worth less than $7 doubled his position and still to this day is holding on. He knows more than me and he saw this happening and probably sees something else too that I don’t understand so whatever I’m still holding a good amount of GME.

    Something a lot of games forget. Customization and personalization is more of a dress up sim anymore, strategy is all ‘the meta’ and build paths and efficient strategies. I miss OG Deus Ex where I dunno what I’m doing but suddenly I found a vent and now I’m hacking a turret to kill the robot that beats my ass. Didn’t know any of that was possible five minutes before.

    Games are all predictable, the systems are the same and the same engines/obsession with graphics make a lot of games play the same. The Witcher, Last of Us, Fallen Order/Survivor and Hogwarts Legacy they all feel the same in body language, controls, interactions, it’s stale.

    I understand what you’re saying but let’s look at this list;

    • Most used products in a kitchen; onions, ground beef, chicken/turkey, flour, deli cheese.

    • Peaches, Papaya, Cantaloupe. Are not things people think to wash especially cantaloupe. It has ridges that bacteria love. Honestly surprised potato wasn’t here too.

    • Flour could be the spookiest. Flour goes through a whole production to get there and the basic food handling rules state the more it’s handled the more dangerous it is, more exposure it has had the deli meat and cheese fall in here too but so so sooooo much of these products are consumed each day and people at worst are a bit farty or get some Hershey squirts. Almost all flour is also cooked to a temperature that kills off bacteria.

    • Leafy greens, watered with animal shit water and chilling in animal shit. You’ll get sick here when your garm guy is inexperienced, undertrained/underpaid, or stoned. You wash your greens. We eat a lot of greens everyday and outbreaks happen but tend to be easy to resolve, wash your fuckin greens.

    Oysters though? You ever see the labels at the bottom of menus that suggest eating raw or undercooked food could result in illness? That’s not really from the thousands of pounds of meat and cheese and veg we eat.

    That’s because your oysters are shucked by a guy who has stabbed himself with that medieval dull ass dagger, hates shucking oysters dozens at a time and likely hasn’t fully cleaned them. He’s probably flicking crabs and parasitic red worms off by the dozens each day. Most Oysters are held in a third pan filled a quarter the way up in their own shit water juice fermenting at a solid 25 degrees 3-6 hours a night as homeboy pops that lowboy open every 30 seconds. And you know oyster eating season is nice and warm, I’m sure most kitchens are well ventilated and cooled it’s not like you’re holding those oysters in the danger zone.

    They should scrub the oysters with a brush, thrash them vigorously in extremely salty preferably chilly water until it runs clear, but it never does it’s always cloudy. And maybe rinsed daily in chilled water. I’m sorry to tell you not everywhere is this loving to their oysters

    And when was the last time you even ate an oyster? How many meals in the last month has oysters? how many had onions or chicken or leafy greens?
