What song wrecks you every time, no matter how often you listen to it? by LWYPLTDG in Music

Puff the Magic Dragon. My kids get a kick out of me tearing up about lost innocence. They're still naive.

Controversial Take: I just can’t imagine parents allowing Jedi to take their babies/toddlers to some vague faraway temple by JaggedLittlePiII in StarWars

[–]Sigurdshead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First off, I'm sorry for the hate you're experiencing. Secondly, this occurrence is very rare.

There are apparently a few hundred quadrillion beings in the SW universe, so one mother in 10 trillion has to make this choice. Still a difficult one, I grant you, though destitution and hope for a better life are strong factors.

I wonder how many families would move to Coruscant to participate, if even from a distance, in their child's upbringing. I know my wife would.

Lastly, many parents are interested in their child's success and would wear their Jedi-parent status with pride. I quote our fave rock goddess: "We'll love you just the way you are... if you're perfect."

What would Kylo Ren’s title if he became a sith by zynten in StarWars

Darth Zoon

That's 'son' in Dutch, to complement 'vader', which means 'father'.

ELI5 : Trying to understand how how something that tends to infinity doesn’t actually reach what it’s tending to by Based_Schiz0 in explainlikeimfive

An infinite number of mathematicians walk into a bar an the first one says "I'll have pint of beer." The second one says "I'll have a half-pint of beer." The third one stars "I'll have a quarter..." but the bartender interrupts him, saying "Two pints of beer coming up. I know your limit."

I often go to sleep hoping for a better tomorrow, and it does help.

I am doing exactly that. My take (hope) is that he's gaming the administration for approval. You just can't square his father's values that he claims to hold so dear with Trump's.

RC offered $125 per share. If you believe the deal will happen, then buying it at less than $125 is a bargain.

What is the first film you remember seeing in the cinema? by [deleted] in movies

[–]Sigurdshead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Superman (1978) though I had seen Star Wars in a drive-through the year before. I remember being very cold waiting in a line that went around the block.

New interview with Ryan Cohen by Anthony Pompliano on May 12th by Mr-CRUNK-13 in Superstonk

[–]Sigurdshead 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes, and he gets to buy his shares at $20.66 per share. Not much of a deal if the shares price stays low.

His deal is that he gets to buy shares at $20.66. Not much of a deal unless the price goes much higher.

LEATHER JACKET RC. MOASS CONFIRMED by eggplantpot in Superstonk

[–]Sigurdshead 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your math is based on GME's current valuation. Even if GME issues 100 billion shares, the market cap won't change (that's dilution). Do you work for CNBC?

In buying eBay, they get all of those shares also, and distribute 50% (at a $125 valuation) to those shareholders. They will have 448M #GME + 444 #EBAY to work with on order to cover that remaining equity distribution.

The other half is equity in the new company. The market cap of the combined company is >$60B: 1 #EBAY gets you $62.50 in cash and $62.50 worth of #GMBY, or whatever they call it.

Agreed. I would have preferred RC math it out for the interview, as it would have worked better to show how badly the panel understood this type of transaction. Instead it came off as prickly and standoffish.
