The market will recover… eventually. Hope you weren’t planning on retiring in the next decade.
I won’t get to retire at all, so that means I’m fine, right?
…oh.
I like the use of Harding and Kerrigan here. Reminds me of the Undertaker meme.
You mean the fact that in 1998, The Undertaker threw Mankind off Hell In A Cell, and plummeted 16 ft through an announcer’s table?
I was actually thinking of this one (apparently from 2020):
i feel like i remember this but im gonna need a context source pls
Tonya Harding (background) was involved in a plot to assault rival figure skater Nancy Kerrigan (foreground). The Movie “I, Tonya” covers the case and is actually pretty good.

I mean, of COURSE it’s good, it stars Lemmy’s own @[email protected]!
I watched this shit play out in realtime on the nightly news.
The movie is great and well worth watching.
Forgot all that! Had though Harding was the one who knee-capped her, and it wasn’t even the knee.
To be pedantic, it was people her husband hired.
And apparently they were only supposed to threaten her.
At least that’s the idea I got from a movie full of unreliable narrators 🤷

This reminds me of moving to a rural area and starting an HOA
The USA is Tonya Harding. Spirit of fair competition??? Fuck you.
