suicide? appreciating the good moments of the day without thinking about the wider hell you’re in, somehow?

        You short-sighted investors are piling in on guillotines, meanwhile I’ve been snatching up shares in pitchfork and torch companies with strong fundamentals for pennies on the dollar.

            The profit on torches is the rebuy for more. You don’t need to sink a lot in material, it just has to burn bright enough to sell.

              Exactly, the guillotine is a durable/capital good. Yeah, you make more on one, but how many are you going to sell relative to torches and pitchforks?

                My guillotines have DRM, non user serviceable parts and a mandatory service contract - cough - I mean you get free IoT and smartphone integration.

                If you sharpen it youself, warranty is void.

                In this throwaway, instant satisfaction society? It’s all about the price point. And the marketing.

        That seems counterproductive.

        Guillotine demand goes up, guillotine production company stocks go up, guillotine production owners become rich, guillotine production millionaires felled by their own designs.

          Hmmn, maybe petardes would be a better choice.
