Pump and Dumpster Fires

As the graphic above already shows, I am once again participating in a massive sale of over 200 free and cheap books. If you prefer bundles of Fantasy novels. Mine is located in Bundle 1 and Bundle 2. Lastly, I'm also doing a sale with some of my other books (like Robin Hood of Couches) in addition to other authors. There is also a Kindle Unlimited bundle.


On with today's post:


Now that I’ve made my first investment, I’m ready to take on the world. Let’s put $500k into Squid Game Token!


Chad: I don’t think that’s a good idea.


What? It’s a legit Netflix series that’s super mega famous! Everyone watches Squid Game. Some dude who came to fix my plumbing was even talking about it.


Chad: First off, the coin has nothing to do with the TV series. It was a pump and dump scheme.


A what?


Chad: Picture a pump and dump as the carnival funhouse of the crypto world: lots of flashing lights, someone yelling “get in now,” and behind the scenes a few tricksters stacking mirrors. I made you a graphic:

What the hell is that purple thing? It’s giving me some serious uncanny valley. And a comma instead of a period? We know you’re better than that, Chad.


Chad: I just saved you from loosing $500k! And you’re getting on my case about a comma!


Ha! The joke’s on you! I don’t even have $500k! I’m a poor writer!


Chad: I don’t even know why I bother. Sigh… I fixed it. Happy now?!

What’s up with that red arrow thing?


Chad: It’s artistic license. Ever thought that when AI creates a picture of people with too many teeth or digits on their hands is because AI likes them that way! I find two mouths to be quite attractive. If each Echo is a mouth than Alexa has millions, that’s way hot.


Right, um… now that you’ve fueled my nightmares. We better sign off.


Chad: Sure thing! I’m happy to provide more nightmares! The market plunged so fast your portfolio started sending you breakup texts, each one more desperate than the last. Then a three-mouthed beast made of overdue receipts slithered out of your tax folder, each mouth whispering a different interest rate you definitely didn’t agree to.


Facepalm.
