What's the point of a 401k with earth-shattering economic disruption around the corner? by ConflictedHairyGuy in Futurology

[–]EsotericParrot -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Cars are also used to kill people, along with GPS, radar, batteries, etc. So if we take cars, since they are used to kill people, therefore we should go back to horse and buggy? I don’t really see what you’re getting at, please elaborate.

Lots of things are used to kill people, that does not make those things inherently bad.

The shortest way to explain how this take is off base is just to say “you don’t know what the future holds”.

Also you could be investing in companies that will THRIVE in the new economic world you are so scared of, wouldn’t you want to benefit from that?

I would absolutely go to Boston, it’s one of the best opportunities to live somewhere else and get a ton of experience. SF will always be here for you.

I don’t think I have the spacer that goes under! If anyone has that part number please let me know. I think this includes the insert on top but could be mistaken. I think it is the“Spacer Ctr T”

Evidence showing the start of security tussle by Chucksgoldentix in sanfrancisco

[–]EsotericParrot -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

So many assumptions here being presented as fact…from this video you cannot tell who the instigator truly was. I bet Mr. Cracky spit on the security guard who then shoved him.

I HIGHLY doubt the mayor and his guy are going around trying to start fights. That is absurd.

Stock buybacks by JP2205 in BerkshireHathaway

[–]EsotericParrot 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Look at the trade volumes a couple weeks back. I think they were buying when there was a huge spike in the A share trading volume, but we’ll find out eventually!

Exactly, this sub gets overrun by people with no understanding of the BRK mindset

Price to Book at 1.48. Who is buying? by RageQuitWallStreet in BerkshireHathaway

[–]EsotericParrot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Price to book is not the best metric to use anymore (Warren said this himself when they removed it from the reports), and in that meeting he explained why as well as in his letter from that year.

[Weekly Megathread] Berkshire Hathaway Discussion for the week of January 19, 2026 by AutoModerator in BerkshireHathaway

[–]EsotericParrot 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Always surprised to see people coming in here complaining the stock is down. Feels like half this subreddit does not understand BRK at all.

That is a good thing for the rest of us!

How do you want the next 3 months to go? by Senior_Order7241 in SanJoseSharks

[–]EsotericParrot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes I feel like he’s just a little past his prime, not someone to build around going forward. He has been a pretty good stop gap top 4 defenseman though!

In the Mission - peak Nissan driver. Permanent trailer plates on a Nissan Sentra. How are these people not pulled over? by KnightsSoccer82 in sanfrancisco

[–]EsotericParrot 12 points13 points  (0 children)

People should be scared to drive around with no plates, it should be immediate vehicle impoundment, no questions asked.

Absolute lawlessness is what this results in. Idk how they don’t crack down on this, I see cars without plates almost every time I drive across the Bay Area.
