i still can't believe the fact that so many people watched that show and thought it was a good investment of their spare time

I haven't been able to stomach it for maybe 8 years, but I used to really enjoy seeing people come up with clever solutions for annoying problems. There were plenty of people who made some little gadget in their garage and needed seed money to produce it at scale. The show sort of devolved into a tech bros who made a new app, and who didn't actually need investors but were looking for some free exposure.

The wacky sales pitches can be entertaining, but everything with the parasites on society are awful.

I don’t know the stats, but maybe it’s free advertising/exposure to TV audiences even if you don’t get a deal?

[–] TheJesusaurus@piefed.ca 1 points 1 day ago

Nope, you have to sign some bullshit before you even go on to prevent people doing that.

I’d say i hope that he loses everything in the bubble, but I’ve no doubt that it’s all structured so that he maxes out the potential upside and is immune to the downside risk.

Can we deport this fucking idiot already? Can someone call ICE on him and see how that plays out?

[–] Phil_in_here@lemmy.ca 15 points 1 day ago

No! We don't want him back!

[–] GreenBeard@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 day ago

Canada would like to declare all sales final. America bought him, he's your problem now.

[–] radiofreebc@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

Canada doesn't want him back. You're stuck with that psychopath.

I couldn't bring myself to watch 'Marty Supreme' just because O'Leary was in it. Thankfully there are a billion other movies out there, both old and new, that I could watch.

[–] FlexibleToast@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago

He gets cucked in it though. It was a fun movie.

[–] thal3s@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 day ago

You’re missing out. The movie was amazing.
