- hinkley 6y agoThey didn’t blackmail anybody, they bought it for $2.5 billion with a B. That is a titanically difficult number to turn down. It’s so much money that you can avoid having to look at people you told your former plans to.
- matkoniecz 6y ago"offer you can’t refuse" is not "really good offer", it is for cases of 'offer' coupled with blackmail or credible threats. See https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/AnOfferYouCantRefuse https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/AnOfferYouCantRe... (tvtropes of all things)
