@intoribehtare The 3 of you, Boaz and Ritholtz are imbeciles. Clearly if someone says I speak 26 languages and my reply is "27", must be a joke because it is impossible for me to speak 26 languages. Imbeciles. — PolitiTweet.org

Bike shops ordered lots more bikes, expecting pandemic demand to last. Peddling all of them now is an uphill climb. https://t.co/tRj7tuKx40

2/ That was the antecedent of the NFT: Bitdiots do not have a monopoly on suckerdom. The NFT just took old absurdities to their natural limit. These nonsensical things multiply at times of low interest rates/easy money. And, of course, deflate when money has some carry. — PolitiTweet.org

The NFT is not new 1/ I once asked a socialite if they know Paris. "We *own* an apartment there" (but "too busy",don't go often, wd get lost there). A paper claim on RE was a shortcut to *connect* w/the city. Same w/those who marry>4 x vs dating. Certificates feel like ownership. — PolitiTweet.org

@trishankkarthik @GuruAnaerobic I don't think you need to pay attention. But sociologically intrsting: as they say, if you need to hit your "friends" up for money past 30 you will never be "weaned" (& my experience). So past 60, it's sad, even if he dreams of some salvatory scheme. Baker checks all the boxes. — PolitiTweet.org

5) SAFETY RULES: - bike lanes/paths, flashing lights - Thick tires - NEVER on 2 lane road with curves. NEVER - ! car doors - Assume every car/truck on the road is a missile manned by a drunk newly drafted Russian, particularly if license plate is from NJ https://t.co/9jHahLG3bx — PolitiTweet.org

4) So if you live in hilly terrain and ride the bike to the gym, then you get more exercise on the bike than at the gym. [A mistake I used to make, busted thanks to HR data] — PolitiTweet.org
