I assume comments like that are from people who are conflicted by the fact that if their head weren't so far up their ass they would have entertained the notion enough to at least acquire a few bitcoin, but because it's now too late it's better to celebrate just how far up their ass their head is.
- SideburnsOfDoom 6y agoYou are basically restating this crappy argument: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26316375 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26316375 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26316392 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26316392 See the replies. There is nothing more to add to this deeply dull line of thinking.
- jakeva 6y agoAnd yet what I responded to was a restatement of the same "deeply dull line of thinking" as you put it that triggered the responses you say I'm restating. I'm not sure what your point is, other than to say people on the internet tend to restate things.
- SideburnsOfDoom 6y agoYeah I wish the bitcoiners would just bitcoin off and bitcoin happily together, leaving the rest of us in peace. But pyramid schemes depend on continually hyping the product, so they can't.
- jakeva 6y agoYou know you don't _have_ to read about bitcoin, right?
- SideburnsOfDoom 6y agoI've worked with a bitcoin bore. An analogy for you: like working with an Evangelical Christian who always assumes that your annoyance at their pestering _can only be jealousy_ that Jebus won't let you into heaven.
- jakeva 6y agoI mean I get it but your annoyance in this case appears to be directed at evangelicals on the internet you are free to ignore, as opposed to coworkers the presence of whom you have little choice. Maybe you are less free to complain about coworkers and so instead complain here? Either way, your complaining is no less annoying than the thing you're complaining about.
