- bombcar 3y agoI've always been partial for "slumping into the melt" - a term from forging metal and glass. Everything becomes a even bland useless but barely working mix in the crucible of modern finance.

It's similar to one of those George Carlin bits where putting a curse word in the middle of an ordinary word changes the power of the word. incredible -> infuckingcredible absolutely -> absofuckinglutely I just don't know what enification means.
